How to Guard is your inside guide to life in the Air National Guard. Hosted by members of the New York Air National Guard, this podcast gives listeners a clear and honest look at what it means to serve. We break down the process of joining, but we also go far beyond recruiting.

Each episode explores the opportunities that make the Guard unique. Career fields, special missions, education benefits, part time and full time roles, deployments, leadership paths, community involvement, and the experiences of Airmen across every specialty. You will hear real stories, real advice, and real insight into how the Guard helps people build skills, find purpose, and create a future that works for them.

Whether you are considering military service or simply want to understand the wide range of possibilities the Guard offers, How to Guard gives you a clear picture of what is available and how to make the most of it.

New episodes will be released regularly on Buzzsprout and all major podcast platforms
