Direct Action Podcast: Professor John Dunn & Anna Dunn (Fighting Through Cancer & Amputation)

https://www.directactions.ca/ [https://www.directactions.ca/] https://www.facebook.com/DirectActions https://www.instagram.com/direct_action_combat/ [https://www.instagram.com/direct_action_combat/]   This one is a bit of a step outside of the ordinary for us. Randy is joined by Professor John Dunn and his daughter Anna Dunn, where they discuss the process of dealing with her cancer diagnosis, and subsequent recovery and return to sport in sitting volleyball. This was a fairly emotional ride, and hearing John's perspective was humbling to say the least.   Direct Action Combat is PROUDLY Presented By: Gray Fox Strategic https://grayfoxstrategic.ca/ [https://grayfoxstrategic.ca/] Use Promo Code: DA10 for 10% off your purchase!   Carcajou Tactical https://carcajoutactical.com/ [https://carcajoutactical.com/] Use Promo Code: DA10 for 10% off your purchase!   Vortex Canada https://www.vortexcanada.net/ [https://www.vortexcanada.net/]   Azimuth Collective https://azimuthcollective.com/ [https://azimuthcollective.com/] https://www.instagram.com/azimuth_collective_ [https://www.instagram.com/azimuth_collective_]   GameStrat https://www.gamestrat.com/ [https://www.gamestrat.com/] https://www.instagram.com/gamestrat [https://www.instagram.com/gamestrat]   Support Canadian Companies!

https://www.directactions.ca/ https://www.facebook.com/DirectActions [https://www.facebook.com/DirectActions] https://www.instagram.com/direct_action_combat/  This was a MONSTER podcast, and proof that when you put super like-minded people on a call, they can talk for hours...4, if you included the hour that continued off camera. Eetu came to be known to me (Producer Josh) through his Instagram, where he is doing some seriously incredible work, and has shot some of the coolest military videos you'll see, for Mighty Finland (link below). We talk about everything from where he got started, choosing the right gear for the job, dealing with crazy weather, security concerns, and super inside baseball stuff like trying to fit into the room when you're a civilian. Eetu is the man, and I highly suggest you go follow him for awesome content (and great metal music too!)  Instagram: @eetupitkane Spotify: Roju Mighty Finland: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Axqfu8WSr0 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Axqfu8WSr0]   Direct Action Combat is PROUDLY Presented By: Gray Fox Strategic https://grayfoxstrategic.ca/ [https://grayfoxstrategic.ca/] Use Promo Code: DA10 for 10% off your purchase!   Carcajou Tactical https://carcajoutactical.com/ [https://carcajoutactical.com/] Use Promo Code: DA10 for 10% off your purchase!   Vortex Canada https://www.vortexcanada.net/ [https://www.vortexcanada.net/]   Azimuth Collective https://azimuthcollective.com/ [https://azimuthcollective.com/] https://www.instagram.com/azimuth_collective_ [https://www.instagram.com/azimuth_collective_]   GameStrat https://www.gamestrat.com/ [https://www.gamestrat.com/] https://www.instagram.com/gamestrat [https://www.instagram.com/gamestrat]   Support Canadian Companies!
