E102: The Business of Disaster Preparedness with Gringo Strategic

Today we’re interviewing Les Leslie, who runs a company called Gringo Strategic. Les trains people on being prepared for the uncertainties in life, many of which were brought to the forefront of our culture during the pandemic. Self preservation training is central to his company and life, helping people to be self sufficient independent from our countries supply chain.

I get it, a few years ago you probably would have thought somebody like Les is waiting for a zombie apocalypse that is never going to happen, but now we all know that there’s merit in being ready for anything. Join us for a fascinating conversation about being prepared for anything while keeping sane at the same time.

Gringo Strategic is: A think tank committed to the research, development, dissemination, and application of strategies and tactics to survive the American decline by resurrecting decentralized and networked communities. This mission is advanced by the work of an Advisory Cell and through Ars Gringo membership; a closed-door, nexus of like-minded men, working to restore and maintain prosperity in their local communities.
