This one's with the full Guild Solutions Group crew, including founder Shane Foster, Director of Training Jason "Jabo" Long, lead instructors Matt Petaki and Jeremy Nash, and Pryme Infil CEO Jarred Pereira. The conversation goes everywhere it should.
You will hear how Jarred Pereira built Pryme Infil out of a 65-page PowerPoint written at 2 a.m. on FMLA leave after surviving a federal deposition he was never prepared for, and why documentation is now the front line of officer protection. You will hear Jeremy Nash walk through the night he drove through a crossfire, absorbed 13 shotgun pellets to the face, and kept calling it over the radio. And you will hear Jabo and Shane break down why breaching produces immediate, undeniable feedback that strips ego out of the room, while movement and CQB are still fighting a religion war built mostly on theory and borrowed doctrine.
This is also a conversation about what is actually shifting in law enforcement right now: younger officers who are hungry and humble, agencies starting to share instead of gatekeep, and a generation of senior guys who are choosing mentorship over silence. The Guild is not just a training company. It is a living system, and this episode drops you right inside it. You will hear the I knows and the what ifs, the coffin in the living room, the x-ray on the t-shirt, and the refrigerator bolted to a six-by-six bolted to the floor. It's a fun one with a group of good dudes.
In this episode:
• Jarred Pereira built Pryme Infil from a 65-page PowerPoint written on FMLA leave after a federal deposition revealed his team's operations and training documentation was legally indefensible: the software automates analytics, aggregates training and operations data, and produces the kind of ironclad after-action record that holds up in litigation
• Breaching produces immediate, binary feedback: either the door opens or it does not, which removes ego and allows failures to be shared freely, while movement and CQB methodology stays siloed because practitioners protect losses and only report wins
• Jason "Jabo" Long's law policy and ethics presentation is built around a cognitive framework rather than slide-by-slide policy recitation: give officers enough structure to contextualize what they are reading in policy so they understand how it applies under stress, not just in a classroom
• Jeremy Nash's agency runs over 200 operations a year with a team of roughly 33, and the barricaded door problems they encounter, including plywood systems bolted through refrigerators into six-by-six posts anchored to the floor, have become the primary driver of the Guild's real-world breaching curriculum
• The 'I knows versus what ifs' framework: building a bank of verified, replicable I knows through data, reps, and shared experience is what gives operators something solid to draw from when they hit the what if that was never on the syllabus
• Guild Solutions Group is a lane-specific organism: Shane Foster owns technical breaching and instructional development, Jabo owns movement, Sean owns leadership, and the instructors from New York own the operational problem sets. Nobody teaches outside their lane
• Pryme Infil is building toward shared analytics: agencies that adopt the platform will eventually be able to pull aggregated operation and training stats on the fly during guild courses, turning what used to be institutional memory locked in one agency into accessible cross-agency data
• The cultural shift Jabo identifies as most important in the next decade: pre-traumatic stress protocols, wellness coordinators embedded in agencies, and a systematic approach to mental health resiliency built into the career arc from academy through retirement
