Our mission is to help you stay safe in person and sound in mind while making the dark topic of survival and preparedness fun and approachable.

The ITRH History
Aaron and Jonathan took to the web and founded In The Rabbit Hole Urban Survival in February 2010, after years of frustration. You see, no one was adequately addressing the concerns of urban survivalists.
There was also a lack of reason, practicality, and humor in most other information sources. These deficits in thinking and presentation diminished the validity of the movement.
Shortly after the show started, long-time friend and accomplice in shenanigans, Jason, joined the show to add a touch of “Red Neck Cajun.” Since then, the show has featured many notable guests and explored a wide range of topics.
They are three “city boys” with a lifetime love for the outdoors, an affinity for city life, a passion for urban survival, and a focus on libertarian ideals.
In the latter years of the show, Jonathan and Jason each went on “baby sabbatical.” The two still made annual appearances, and the rest of the time, Aaron held down the fort with weekly subject matter expert guests.
The Current State of ITRH
Currently, the show is not in production. Aaron decided in late 2019 that the show had contributed enough to the prepping world body of knowledge for the time being. Additionally, Aaron had pressing professional and personal projects that would be his primary focus going forward.

Will ITRH Ever Come Back?
Maybe. We never say never…
…And we are regularly encouraged/poked/prodded by listeners to bring it back. We even discuss it amongst ourselves on a somewhat regular basis.
So, we’ll see. Maybe. Probably.
