About this episode

The episode features an interview with Alaska resident Wes discussing unique self-defense incidents in Alaska.

This week on the Active Self Protection Podcast we sit down with self defender and Alaska resident Wes and discuss two incidents that happened weeks apart where his fellow Alaskans prove that Alaska, while ruggedly beautiful and independent is still populated with some rather interesting personalities. Active Self Protection exists to help good, sane, sober, moral, prudent people in all walks of life to more effectively protect themselves and their loved ones from criminal violence. On the ASP Podcast you will hear the true stories of life or death self defense encounters from the men and women that lived them. If you are interested in the Second Amendment, self defense and defensive firearms use, martial arts or the use of less lethal tools used in the real world to defend life and family, you will find this show riveting. Join host and career federal agent Mike Willever as he talks to real life survivors and hear their stories in depth. You'll hear about these incidents and the self defenders from well before the encounter occurred on through the legal and emotional aftermath. Music: bensound.com Video Intro by Joe Russo
