In this powerful episode of Security Halt!, Deny Caballero sits down with Dr. James Engall to discuss a critical but often-overlooked issue in military training—blast exposure and its long-term effects on brain health.

🔹 The Silent Impact of Blast Waves – How repeated exposure in military training and combat affects cognitive function, hearing loss, and long-term brain health.
🔹 The Science Behind Neuroplasticity & TBI – Why understanding brain adaptability is key to improving recovery strategies for military personnel and first responders.
🔹 Weapon Systems & Safety Innovations – The role of suppressors, blast mats, and mitigation strategies in reducing harmful exposure.
🔹 BAM Analytics & Operation Blue Shield – How advanced data tracking is revolutionizing training protocols for SWAT teams, military units, and law enforcement.
🔹 Advocating for Smarter Training – Why military leaders must rethink training methods to prioritize long-term health and operational readiness.

This episode is a must-listen for active-duty military, veterans, first responders, and anyone invested in brain health and safety advancements.
