Carrie Lightfoot, of The Well Armed Woman, and Barbara Baird, of Women’s Outdoor News, have partnered on a new project – “The Women’s Gun Show,” a weekly podcast that focuses on women and shooting. Sponsored by Ruger, this show will examine timely and trending topics, along with product reviews, guest interviews and an insight into the fast-growing world of women and gun ownership. The first show is set to release on Fri., May 20, while the women are attending the National Rifle Association’s Annual Meetings.
In the introductory episode, Lightfoot and Baird discuss one of the hottest topics in shooting – guns and babies. The women introduce the 3-part series on Guns and Babies – focusing on pregnancy and shooting – available as downloads at their websites. Guest Gabby Franco, who was an Olympic shooter and now is a firearms trainer, talks about why she has chosen to step away from the range during her pregnancy and offers a drill for dry-fire training. LaserMax, Inc., and Everything Covert sponsored the pregnancy series guides.
The women also discuss trending firearms topics, the LC9 model and a super option for pregnant shooters – the belly band. Lightfoot delves into upcoming women’s shooting events, and Baird reveals why she carries a walnut-picking stick and wears gloves while walking country roads in the summer.
The hosts also introduce the “fan of the month” opportunity, where one person can win a gift from The Well Armed Woman and become a featured profile at Women’s Outdoor News.
The show will be available shortly at iTunes and Stitcher. It can be downloaded or listened to at The Well Armed Woman and Women’s Outdoor News websites.
