In this episode of the Modern Alpha Life Podcast, Jon sits down with outdoorsman and author Chris Weatherman. He considers himself a mix between a modern-day prepper and a traditional survivalist.

Notably, Chris is the author of the post-apocalyptic Survivalist series under his pseudonym Angery American. He’s an avid pepper and gun runner, always eager to share his knowledge with the world.

Chris and Jon discuss points including:

- What led him to become an author of over 20 books he calls “faction” (a strategic blend of fact/fiction)

- The reason behind his choice to “live what he writes” regarding prepping and survival.

- Why each person’s need matters most for their unique setups, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach to gear and preps.

- How to test your gear and preps properly.

- How training can make or break you and your setup

- How to evaluate and re-prioritize when your gear/prep needs a change
