Where can people find the show?

 

Alan- You can find the podcast on Itunes, Podbean, Spotify or your favourite podcast app.  Please help us out take a few minutes and submit a review! It helps other people find us. You can also find us at prepperpodcast.ca.  Our Youtube live shows are now available, please subscribe to the YouTube channel “The Island Retreat “, and click the notifications tab.  That gives you alerts when we are going live.

 

Ian - If you want to contact Ian directly, you can reach me at [email protected] . I love to answer questions specific to western Canada.  I am also looking forward to helping aspiring preppers take their first steps.

 

You can also occasionally find me giving my .02 worth on Canadian Patriot Podcast, also available on Itunes and Youtube.  There you will find me ranting on the merits of a freer society, bemoaning government waste, and even diving into the occasional tactically-driven conversation.
