Paul Lathrop is the Deputy Director of New Media for the Second Amendment Foundation (www.saf.org). He started his work in second amendment media as the owner and co-executive producer of the Polite Society Podcast on the Self Defense Radio Network (www.sdrn.us).
Paul has had a lifelong familiarity with guns having grown up in Rural South Dakota and has most recently become deeply involved with the topic of self-defense. His growing displeasure with the state of the nation and the state of our government caused him to create the politics and guns podcast in early 2012. Since then the show has had a re-branding as the Polite Society Podcast and has grown to over 100 thousand monthly views and podcast downloads..

Polite Society Podcast
Polite Society Podcast with Paul & Susan Lathrop.
On February 3, 2012 Paul & Susan started the Politics and Guns podcast. Out of a need to speak about our government eroding our human right of self-defense. Politics and Guns was the result. In January of 2014 they decided that a change was in order for the title of the show, and so re-titled the show “The Polite Society Podcast”.
