In this special live-streamed edition of Life, Liberty, and Equipped, hosts Nate Hills, Michael Billings, and Tiberius Giblin fly solo without Greg—but not without plenty to say. Broadcasting across YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram, the team discusses everything from skydiving adventures and parenting milestones to the launch of new NeoMag gear and reflections on modern manhood.
Tiberius opens up about guiding his son through a meaningful journey toward manhood, sparking a deeper conversation about fatherhood, mentorship, and rites of passage. The crew also explores the tension between technology and liberty, using smartphones and social media as a launchpad into a timely quote from James Madison. Plus, they reveal the new Beltless V2 and Bat Strap—upgrades that take concealed carry flexibility to the next level.
The episode closes with a Faith & Fuel segment that challenges listeners to speak graciously and live intentionally. Whether you're a NeoMag insider or new to the show, this episode is a bold mix of laughs, leadership, liberty, and life lessons.
