Active Self Protection Podcast

This week on the Active Self Protection Podcast we sit down with Active Self Protection viewer and self-defender Eric and discuss the night he went to the grocery store for some late-night treats and ended up OC spraying an attacker who was trying to assault him and steal his car. Then we sit down with investigative reporter Stephen Gutowski of the reload.com and discuss the Hero Of Greenwood Mall in Indiana and how recently relaxed CCW laws may have helped him save the day.

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 and the rest of the ASP staff as they talk 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. Title music by Jorikbasov.
