A Warriors Perspective
A Warriors Perspective podcast was originally created to share the stories of those fighting government mandates, specifically in the first responder and military communities. Your podcast hosts are all currently employed by Los Angeles County Fire Department and have been actively engaged in the fight against the County's policies regarding mandates aimed at the "pandemic" that started in 2020. As the podcast has continued to grow we have also incorporated more of our faith in God as a subject of the episodes as that is where we have each found the strength and hope to press on through the current trials. In its current form most of our episodes are focused on reading the word and talking through it as men who are working to continue to grow in our faith.
