Harsh Imaginations

by Ian Ortiz

Hello all and welcome to the podcast. The reason I started this podcast is to reach a wider audience and tell people about life experiences, being in the military and all the crazy things that happen in-between. A fair warning: this podcast is not intended for those who are easily offended. Proudly not for everyone.
