In this episode of the Active Self Protection Podcast we sit down with Simmone Park as she tells us about how a brutal armed robbery attempt and her determination to fight back caused her to examine and change her outlook on gun ownership and the Second Amendment. Also, we sit down with investigative reporter Stephen Gutowski of thereload.com as he recounts his experiences at Shot Show 2022. 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.
