Kurt was a call-in cohost for a popular Conservative radio talk show for 5 years in Modesto, California. He also wrote on the Internet under the name of "The Gunrunner" for over 15 years. He founded the Stanislaus County Militia, which was instrumental in helping thousands of people during the 1997 Modesto flood.

Helping people "keep their heads above water" has been his goal and purpose in his life. His fields of knowledge run from automotive, firearms (he was a Master Gunsmith for over 20 years: now retired), health, food (buying, storing, cooking), politics, animals, woods craft, fishing, and the lost art of "being prepared".

His brand of straight shooting, no nonsense, don't-beat-around-the-bush type of talk has gained him thousands of listeners, supporters and customers.
