    The Truth About Gun Safes: SecureIt CEO Reveals What Homeowners Need to Know
    2025/12/09
    Secure Firearm Storage, Fast Access, and Surprising Truths About Gun Safes with Tom Kubiniec In this episode, Kevin and Craig sit down with Tom Kubiniec, CEO of SecureIt Tactical, to talk about the real science behind firearm storage, what every homeowner gets wrong about gun safes, and why “fast access” is more than just convenience—it’s survival. Tom’s story is incredible: from professional guitarist to the leading authority in military armory design, to building the firearm storage platform used by U.S. Special Forces. He breaks down how the industry misleads consumers, why fire ratings are basically a myth, how thieves actually move through a home, and how strategic decentralized storage can protect families better than any giant safe in the basement. Whether you own one gun or twenty, this episode will change the way you think about securing them in your home. About Our Guest: Tom Kubiniec – SecureIt Tactical Tom is the founder & CEO of SecureIt Tactical, the largest supplier of weapon storage systems to the U.S. military and a leading innovator in consumer gun storage. Drawing from engineering, armory design, and decades of field experience, Tom brings a radically different approach to safe firearm access and security. 🔗 SecureIt Tactical (Military & LE): https://www.secureittactical.com/ 🔗 SecureIt Gun Storage (Consumer): https://www.secureitgunstorage.com/ 📩 Email Tom: LinkedIn Show Notes 🚨 Intro + College Football Banter Kevin and Craig celebrate both of their teams making the college football playoffs, share Thanksgiving updates, and Kevin unveils his new massive smoker setup. 🏕️ Big Bend Trip & Wild News Stories Craig previews a bizarre story he’s investigating involving wild pigs with blue fat and potential rodenticide contamination. 🚗 Tom’s Background: From Guitar Prodigy to Armory Expert Tom shares his unbelievable journey: Touring musician Guitar Player Magazine feature Career-ending tendonitis Becoming a top-tier sales expert Accidentally entering the weapon storage world through the FBI Eventually becoming the authority in military armory design 🛠️ How the Military Stores Weapons (and Why Your Safe Is Wrong) Tom explains how working with Special Operations Command led to the SecureIt Tactical Weapon Storage Platform—an engineering-first system built around: Simplicity Modularity Zero-fail access Storing firearms in one clean row Never digging through guns to get to a gun 🔥 The Myth of Fire Ratings Tom blows up one of the gun industry’s biggest selling points: Fire ratings are static tests that don’t reflect real fires Real house fires involve wind, pressure, and 2000°F+ temps Even “90-minute” safes often fail in minutes Any gun exposed to high temps becomes a liability, not a keepsake 🏠 Why Big Gun Safes Are a Liability Tom walks through real crime data and explains: Thieves spend 9 minutes in a home Master bedrooms are the least secure spot Kitchens and front-door closets are far safer A massive safe is a single point of failure SecureIt’s decentralized storage model: Smaller modular safes Multiple locations Faster access Higher security ⏱️ High-Stress Fast Access (HSFA): Why Your Safe Could Fail You SecureIt redesigned every lock after watching experienced shooters fail to open tiny-button locks under stress.

  • Fall Breaks, Fake Stimulus Checks & Football Shocker Week!

    Fall Breaks, Fake Stimulus Checks & Football Shocker Week!
    2025/10/14

    Fall Breaks, Fake Stimulus Checks & Football Shocker Week!

    This week, the guys are back in the studio after a “camping” trip (well, one of them slept in his truck). They catch up on fall break chaos, celebrate their show’s climb to the top of the charts, and talk about some big updates from their friends at True Texas Solar & Roofing — including new Tesla roof tech and what’s changing in the world of home insurance.

    Then it’s on to football madness: Texas pulls off a surprise win, A&M looks strong, and Oklahoma State sets an unforgettable (and bizarre) record. The conversation heats up around coaching changes, rivalry traditions (yes, tortillas get thrown), and even whether Nick Saban could actually head to OSU.

    To top it all off, the hosts tackle viral rumors about a new October stimulus check — breaking down what’s real, what’s not, and how to avoid the scams making the rounds online.

    It’s a wild mix of home talk, football breakdowns, and headline myth-busting — with plenty of laughs and good conversation along the way.
