You're listening to the HMS Podcast, brought to you by MMP Guns.com, your most trusted online marketplace for firearms, ammunition, and accessories. Hey, it's Brett Vesely, and I'm here with Byron from MMP Guns. Look, Byron, I have a friend wanting to sell some guns he inherited. What's the best way for him to do that?
Byron from MMP Guns
Brett, the last thing you want to do is sell the gun to someone who can't legally own one. Tell him not to put himself at risk and come into M and P Guns where he'll get a fair offer and he can rest easy knowing it's not getting into the wrong hands.
Brett Vesely
Okay, but what if he lives out of state?
Byron from MMP Guns
Easy. Legalgunbuyer.com and he can do it online. It really that simple.
Brett Vesely
There you have it. MMP Guns or legalgunbuyer.com the safe and legal way to sell your firearms.

Brady
Probably fall for football.
Homburg (Morning Sickness Host)
Yeah, I think I'd take from Stern's taking off all of summer. I mean, summer. I don't mind.
Entertainment Segment Host
Most people take summer off.
Homburg (Morning Sickness Host)
That's when they like if we took summer off because you have kids. But if you don't have kids, summer's no big deal.
Brady
But football.
Homburg (Morning Sickness Host)
If I could travel to games and, like, bounce around in summertime here, it's. You want to be inside anyway. But travel, you want to be.
Brett Vesely
Well, wouldn't you want to work if your kids are off? Screw that.
Homburg (Morning Sickness Host)
Oh, my God. If the kids are off. I'm.
Additional Morning Sickness Cast Member
I'm speak from experience.
Homburg (Morning Sickness Host)
Yeah. When your kids are home all day, you're gonna be home with them. Yeah, Brady's the only one that likes that idea. Kirby doesn't even like that idea. Brady just wants to hang out with her for three months. I really see her, huh? I rarely really.
Entertainment Segment Host
Yeah.
Homburg (Morning Sickness Host)
I think that's untrue.
Entertainment Segment Host
Wow.
Additional Morning Sickness Cast Member
That was heartfelt.
Entertainment Segment Host
Wasn't.
Homburg (Morning Sickness Host)
You okay? Is everything all right? You move out.
Brady
What happens?
Brett Vesely
He doesn't go to dispensaries too often.
Homburg (Morning Sickness Host)
Yeah, Yeah. I know where to find her. It's called Sunday's best. Why don't you see Kirby anymore?
Entertainment Segment Host
She's busy. Oh.
Additional Morning Sickness Cast Member

No.
Homburg (Morning Sickness Host)
She died in San Diego this year in a mysterious car accident that really. No damage to the car, but she came back injured. Tons of injuries. It is time for Brady to give you all the entertaining news he knows. We call this the entertainment drill. It's brought to you by reactdefense.com that's the home of tactical black self defense training. And get in on that thing like I've been doing for the last, if you can believe it, seven going on eight years. Although I've been lacking the last month because of my stupid schedule. I got to get back in there, start working. I love it and I miss it. And you get in there and you do all the cardio and all the work. You have fun with a lot of fun people who are there to help you. We're actually all training each other in the classes to be the same because the more of us out there means, the less chances the wolves have of attacking the flock. That's a weird way to put it, but it's true. Bunch of sheep walking around. They're staring at their phones all the time.
Brady
Bad guys look at that, they see.
Homburg (Morning Sickness Host)
It and they attack. You don't want to always walk around feeling threatened, but when you're kind of trained a little bit, you feel a whole lot less threatened because you got something in your pocket that makes you feel a little bit stronger, a little bit more confident. And bad guys hate confidence. Boy, do they ever get better at being you. For $89 for a month of training. That is amazing. And it's the best in the world. That's for sure. Celebrating 25 beautiful years. 3actdefense.com the home of tactical black Brady. Entertain me.
