Episode #57 | Emergency Preparedness in Montana: Dr. Jeff Muenzer of PrepEM Wild Answers Real Listener Questions on the IWD406 Podcast
The IWD406 Podcast, Montana’s trusted platform amplifying leadership, expertise, and community impact, proudly presents Episode 57 featuring Dr. Jeff Muenzer of PrepEM Wild Inc.
In this powerful and practical episode, Dr. Jeff — emergency physician turned emergency preparedness educator — answers real questions submitted by Montana businesses and listeners about what it truly means to be prepared in our state.
Montana’s landscape is breathtaking — but it is also remote, rugged, and unpredictable. From backcountry recreation to rural living, preparedness can mean the difference between inconvenience and crisis.
This episode features a listener question from Montana women-owned business Firearms Handling, founded by Annah Pharr, asking about proper organization and storage of emergency kits for real-life accessibility. Dr. Jeff discusses why how you store your kit is just as important as what’s inside it.
Listeners will gain insight into:
• The most common emergency kit mistakes Montanans make
• How to properly organize kits for high-stress scenarios
• Real stories of unprepared situations in Montana
• Why emergency education matters just as much as equipment
• Practical recommendations for families, businesses, and outdoor adventurers
PrepEM Wild Inc. was founded to bridge the gap between emergency medicine and everyday preparedness. Their mission is to equip individuals and communities with high-quality emergency kits and education designed specifically for real-world outdoor and rural environments.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone living, working, or adventuring in Montana.
