Behind the Scenes of Garand Thumb with Micah and Charlie | The Maglife Podcast 206 

Mike, Micah, and Charlie are the gun world equivalent to Richard Hammond, James may, and Jeremy Clarkson.

"Lets say the CIA couldn't hook me up with a Daniel Defense" - absolute gem.

Charlie, thanks for the shoutout! Yes, it's really not you, but that stupid rake... Anyway, thanks for doing this interview it was very enlightening. I feel like the rake was holding you back. I had no idea that my 'rake protest' actually reached you. To be honest, I started it as a trolling, but it became a thing. The reddit stuff got really crude and I tapped out. I work as a city bus driver and I take enough abuse from strangers all day. Anyway, thanks again for the shout out and the opportunity to see you in a different light.

Micah was 100% on the Zelda currency 😂

Charlie is quite literally a force to be reckoned with, across the board. From humor to shooting skills.

Damn we're spolied today!! Aaron interviewing Mike and now this!?! I'm absolutely here for it. Love these guys. RU-vid is a better place with them in it.

Charlie is so insanely relatable and honest. Big respect

Garand Thumb has to be my favorite channel on RU-vid. I love the progression over the years. Charlie is hilarious, but I also like when he is himself, like the Dicken drill video. I love the competition that they always have with each other.

Charlie is mega based and needs to start his own channel

I fucking love Charlie's vibe, it's a damn shame we don't have a channel of his to watch alongside micah and mikes

Charlie is a physical representation of the real chaos that is inherent with shooting . A 'normal' range day can go many ways. Good, bad, or Charlie. #fkncharlie

I am happy to hear Charlie and Micah talk about WA state issues. As a Seattle resident, I feel heartened.

Such a cool interview, love it. Charlie is so funny man lol Mike has good people around himself

😂🤣😂 My wife actually thought Charlie was a "mentally challenged" guy that Mike Jones found on the street and put him on camera! 😂🤣😂 Thanks for hosting these guys and ruining the myth behind Charlie for me!😂🤣😂

The fact that Charlie cleans up so good when interacting with the public.. just makes him seem like more of a serial killer, but the goofy fun kind that your secretly rooting for! Like Ben Affleck in the accountant, or Ryan gosling in drive or Freddy Krueger in that one racing movie..

15:45 real story, I was there, it was hilarious.

Herodotus talked about conquering nations by feminizing them and disarming them. Just a 2000 thousand-year-old book explaining the basics for subjugating people.

The rubles, ruples, rupees, roofies string of conversation had me cracking up. And when Charlie referred to himself as “the R word guy that helps Garand Thumb with videos.” 😂

Charles needs to do a video on internet trolling

Awesome video, I usually don't listen/watch podcasts. But I could listen to the three of you guys go back and forth all day long

Some of my favorite people on the guntubes. Only missing Mike and Aaron.

So glad to see Charlie being himself

The story about being noticed at Safeway, if you meant on Mothers day, and it was the Spanaway Safeway, that was me bro!! Glad to have made your dad proud. I was a bit 'starstruck' as odd as that may sound, but I was just watching the Unsub ep. with Mike and you, and then there you were!!

Now this is a quality podcast 🤌

One of the best sit downs I've watched in awhile. Great stuff

Charlie is the only reason I watched Garand Thumb....

Loved this….we need more of this on RU-vid

You need another podcast like this with these two again. Episode was gold

Lol my friend and I were the ones who took the pic with Micah when he was filming 😅 all chill though it still was an honor to have met you!!

Sadly due to having cancer and going threw a year of no income, but still needing a roof and food, i actually went threw the having to start my collection over problem last year. My first two guns i bought to start over were a M&P 2.0 with a holosun red dot and a 10/22 to build up. Other than that, thank you for the content, between Garand Thumb, and your channel Micah you guys helped me laugh when i needed to, plus its fun seeing content being made in my home state in areas i know very well.

I'm from Texas, and can confirm we have no public land to practice on, most the ranges won't let you shoot quick strings. My local range is better than most, but not great. Having land is a must if you want to not be bothered.

Charlie's humor keeps me going back to older videos. You know it's gold when everyone has that "I'm goin' to hell just for laughing at that." look on their face. The best... THE BEST... SDI piece is in the "How Deadly is a .22"

This is the best filmed episode of a podcast. more need to be in the woods.

Epic conversation. Thanks to Charlie "SDI" will never be the same. Take care gentlemen

The less you know about something the easier it is to be afraid of it. New favorite quote

Probably my favorite podcast setting ever🤣🤣🤘

That statement about AR having less training opportunities is the truth. I’ve got maybe 3 guys I know with any real interest in this sort of thing and nobody else. Tons of firearm culture, rights, respect, and safety though.

Charlie is my new Hero for the funny shit he pulls on any one!

This was awesome first time I’ve seen ur channel and I love it mainly clicked bc of micha and Charlie and it was cool to see them talk and be them in a long open form

it is indeed a gang it’s so nice to see in touch true americans. please keep on in the right direction

No public land out here, is a great point! I 100% used to train way more when I had easy access to a national forest.

the backdrop is amazing

You guys hit the nail right on the head when it comes to training. Here in my part of Iowa, there is very little public land. Most of the land where I'm at is either corn fields or soybean fields. The largest plot of public land not far from me is about 230 acres. But is so over used, it's hard to shoot out there. The only other public land is about 45mins away from me and it's 2.3 acres. We don't even have free camping around here. It's all parks. So yeah, it sucks.

DUDE, that podcast was fun AF

This was pretty interesting. Appreciate it.

I can't wait for Charlie to be on another episode

best interview ever. didn't even realize I watched the whole hour. probably would have watched a couple more hours. ... I would like to watch a couple more hours..

As a pnw resident, me and my friends all train. And we train because we see what might come.

Watching this made me appreciate New Mexico a little more.

Great video, those two are hilarious!

Great episode! Nice to see the real Charlie, makes the character he plays on Garand Thumb even better. No replacement for a good sense of humor and someone who can wield it like Charlie can. Micah is a smart dude, great with the camera, great with firearms but still has this child like energy and enthusiasm that you can’t help but share with him.

this shit looks unbelievable in 4k, excellent video production!

Charlie has that high intellectual genius comedy trolling with weird foot fetish....his arch enemy has to be Quentin Tarantino.

Awesome stuff.

Great Video!

awesome!

Awesome video

If I had friends, I'd want them to be like you guys 😂!

It was me. I demand Dr Charlie be in all thumb vids 😂

Hanlon's razor. "Never attribute to malice that which can be attributed to stupidity. "

we love the rake!

Agreed essential trio

Just moved from Eastern Wa/North Idaho. I miss it man..

Poor Micah doesn't understand he closely embodies Charlie's character. Your funny too big guy! Total respect for people with downs btw.

Micah... I swear I thought you had a broccoli patch on your shirt. I was digging it. You could totally rock a broccoli patch if you wanted to. Also, you guys are awesome! You're putting out pure gold!!! You guys have taken gun tubing to a whole other level.

Great episode guys! It is really great to see what's behind such a great channel, and to find out what makes it tick. Grand Thumb is like a modern day 3 Stooges with firearms, but with excellent cinematography! Lol. Thank you all for putting out great content! Awesome interview dude!

LPT always tell the homies you love them before hanging up the phone. We all deserve it.

Dude this was a brilliant interview. Great job. 🤙🏻🔥

id love people training with their guns and gear being seen as normal as people who do martial arts for self defence purposes

i recently saw a vid where charlie was putzing across the screen then literally 5 seconds later he was full sprint running from john. that frickin had me cackling. i have to watch Garand vids multiple times so i can focus on the background shenanigans

I am an SDI graduate and I get excited when I see Charlie at the beginning of the video. I can’t wait to see the new way that he’s going to butcher the schools name each time, it’s hilarious.

One thing about the arkansas/Texans not training as much is, I own 80 acres out here in arkasas. I train all the time using all three of your guys videos and advice for methods. But I don't have to leave or go to a class, I call my buddies and set up a time and we train at least once a month. Or i go out by myself and train for a couple hours. And there are many more like me out here.

Jeremy does really good work.

There should be a podcast with Micah and Charlie.

“Don’t you need to workout first?” 😂☠️☠️

100% went to this video just to confirm that Micah and Charlie are in fact two different people. It is 100% because of Micah’s glasses

15:30 is Admin's villian arc moment... "never again..."

Charlie is a national treasure. I hope he never leaves the team.

Just found your channel. Nice interview, thanks for bringing it to us. quick question: what "shirt" is Jeremy wearing in this video?

Welp I'm subscribed to this one to good stuff love it

Charlie is significant more fit than I thought he was

Here in CT we have very strict gun laws, but I’ve never seen a half filled class either TCCC/rifle/ pistol. People want to get trained here

the topic at 36:00 hit super close to home. almost got into way too much trouble because i dont have any places to go shoot. cannot wait to move to the northwest and have space to do stuff

As a fellow Washingtonian I feel this

You guys are freaking nuts😂😂😂 I was expecting a digression of that mountain man topic.. that got bit out of control lmao.😅

I live in Washington aswell. It would be an absolute dream come true to bump into Micah and Charlie and Mike😭 Idk if mike still lives in Washington, but I feel a bit safer knowing I have Charlie close by with his tactical rake.

I feel that gun ban/restriction bullshit, over the pound here in the UK. We might not get all the cool stuff, but we do as much as we can with what we have.

I mixed them up for a bit! I watch every episode 😂

I think Michael has an great sense of humor, has good timing, and is very funny on his own. But he is an awesome straight man. Micah and Charlie are both hilarious and in combination with Michael they multiply the fun.

so true about the less people know the easier it is to fear. I started hunting as an adult, went out my fist morning and everything was scary in the dark coyote packs barking and screaming in the tree line etc. now 3 years later I am screaming at black bears and staring down coyotes from 5 yards hoping it makes a move so I can have a new hoodie.

Lol I feel better about my recognizing you guys at my work 😂. I work at a firearms manufacturer in Washington and you guys were touring the place and I nearly shit myself when I saw micah and charlie at my work. And yeah that superman thing does definitely work I almost didn't recognize charlie. If Micah wasn't there I probably wouldve missed him. I bet you guys were hella weirded out by me cause I was just staring at you guys the whole time you walked around me 😂. I couldn't help it I wanted to yell "hey charlie what does sdi stand for" 😂. Then ask Micah and see what he says lol.

Small town Texas, most people have their own land yes. Out my back door I have steel plates 10 yards to 2,000 yards and train weekly.

I'm not saying we should all troll Charlie by googling feet pics and sending them to him, but I'm also not not saying we should.

I was confused between Charlie and Micah for a few weeks when I first started watching GT

“Government itself is a big scam.” Charlie nailed it.💪🏻

Charlie just changed the way I refer to David Hogg in random conversations.

I agree 100%

Welcome to Idaho, boys!

More of this

Woah!
