Cam Edwards is the host of the long-running Cam & Company podcast and editor of BearingArms.com. With over two decades of experience in covering Second Amendment issues, Cam brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to his analysis of the legislative and legal battles gun owners are facing across the country. As a resident of Virginia, Cam has also recently experienced firsthand the extremism of the gun control lobby and their attacks on our Second Amendment rights.
Cam Edwards is originally from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, where he worked in morning drive-time radio. He grew up in a gun-free household (Edward’s mother was a Kennedy Democrat). Becoming a husband and a father in his mid-20s persuaded him to buy his first firearm for protection. When asked how many guns he owns, Edwards has joked, “Less than 42.” He is currently the host of the “Cam & Company” radio show at NRA News. He lives on a 40-acre farm with his family in Farmville, Virginia.
Edwards is also a shooter and a parent who is teaching his kids to be safe and responsible when it comes to firearms. “I’ve come to realize that we’re not just fighting for our right to keep and bear arms,” says Edwards, “we’re fighting for the right to raise our children as we see fit.”

Cam is also the Co-Author of Heavy Lifting: Grow Up, Get a Job, Raise a Family, and Other Manly Advice. What has happened to men in America? Once upon a time, men in their twenties looked forward to settling down and having children. Today, most young men seem infected by a widespread Peter Pan syndrome. Unwilling to give up the freedom to sleep late, play video games, dress like a slob, and play the field, today’s men wallow in an extended adolescence, ostensibly unaware that they’re setting themselves up for a depressing, lonely existence.
In this hilarious ode to male adulthood, Jim Geraghty and Cam Edwards—two happily married, 40-year-old men—have a simple message for their younger peers: Grow up!
