Save this now. Because the day you need a backup communications plan is a lousy time to start building one.
I’ve been thinking about this for a while, and after everything we’ve dealt with - recently and in the past - I finally put it all in one place.
The Survival Dispatch Master Online Directory.
I’m giving the public version to everyone, including free subscribers.
Why?
Because I don’t want your only connection to Survival Dispatch to be YouTube. Or X. Or Substack. Or Facebook. Or any other company that can decide tomorrow morning that you shouldn’t see what we’re publishing.
We’ve already seen how quickly things can change.
Censorship isn’t the only problem. Websites go down. Internet and cellular networks get disrupted. Accounts get hacked. Platforms have outages. Sometimes an algorithm doesn’t technically remove you at all - it just makes damn sure nobody sees you.
So save this list.
Seriously. Don’t bookmark this article and assume you’ll come back for it later. Save the actual directory.
START WITH THE PLACES WE OWN
These are the ones I’d bookmark first.

SurvivalDispatch.News is our primary home for SITREPs, intelligence and Guardian communications. Survival Dispatch TV is where I publish practical situational awareness, pattern recognition and preparedness content. Remnant is my post-apocalyptic audio drama built around actual survival skills.
Those should be in your bookmarks, not just sitting somewhere in your browser history.
THEN FOLLOW US EVERYWHERE ELSE
You don’t have to use every one of these platforms. I don’t expect anybody to.
But pick several…

That’s the public redundancy network. The Master Directory also puts all of these in one place so you’re not trying to remember usernames when something goes sideways.

That’s the list.
Well... that’s the public list.
Because Guardians have another communications layer entirely.
THE THREE THINGS I LEFT OUT
If you’re looking at the free Master Directory, you’ll notice three things aren’t there.
That wasn’t an oversight.
Element Matrix, SDENS and POCLink are Guardian-only.
Element is our private Guardian communications server. It’s where I want Guardians connected before there’s ever a reason they suddenly need to be connected. When you become a Guardian, we personally onboard you. The private invite isn’t published publicly for obvious reasons.
Then there’s SDENS - the Survival Dispatch Emergency Notification System.
Guardians are automatically enrolled. SDENS is there for the stuff I don’t want to trust to an algorithm and hope you happen to see.
And then there’s POCLink.
We have a private Survival Dispatch Guardian group for Guardians using POCLink radios and its smartphone network. The email address and instructions for getting into that group is redacted from the public directory.
I’m not putting those instructions on the open internet.
That’s for Guardians.
THERE’S A REASON I BUILT IT THIS WAY
I could have just made another Telegram channel and called it redundancy.
That’s not redundancy.
If every road back to us ultimately depends on public social media, you’ve basically built the same thing five times.
The Guardian chain is different:
Element → Guardian Email → SurvivalDispatch.News → SDENS → POCLink → Telegram → the rest of our public network.
If something isn’t working, move down the chain. That’s it. No guessing where everybody went. No searching X to see whether somebody knows what happened. No waiting around wondering whether Survival Dispatch disappeared.
The full directory actually lays out the order of operations so Guardians know where to go next.
Maybe we never need all of it.
I’d be perfectly happy with that.
But I didn’t build Survival Dispatch around the assumption that YouTube, Substack, X, cellular service and everything else will always be there when we need them.
That would be stupid.
GUARDIAN ISN’T JUST “MORE CONTENT”
This is one of the distinctions I want to make clearer.
Yes, Guardians get the full daily SITREP with sources instead of the cut-down free version.
They get the 37-eMag Survival Dispatch library in Member Perks.
They get SDENS alerts.
They get our private Element server.
They get access to the POCLink Guardian group.
And they get the complete Master Online Directory, including the Guardian-only communications information I’ve deliberately removed from the public copy.
But the bigger idea is pretty simple.
You’re inside the communications network instead of just following Survival Dispatch on the internet.
There’s a difference.
DOWNLOAD THE BLACK DIRECTORY NOW
I’m putting the black version of the Master Online Directory above the paywall.
Free subscriber or paid Guardian, I want you to have it.
Download it to your phone. Put another copy on your computer. Follow the Telegram channel using the QR code on the last page. Bookmark the sites that matter.
Do that now, while everything works.
The white printable version is below the paywall. That’s the one I’d actually print, fold up and stick in a go bag or wherever you keep important information you may need when your phone isn’t doing you much good.
For Guardians, the redacted POCLink information and instructions are below the paywall too.
And if you’re a free subscriber looking at all of this and thinking, Okay, I probably should have the rest of that chain...
That’s kind of the point.
Start your 7 day FREE trial. Get onboarded to Element, enrolled in SDENS and connected to the full Guardian communications network.
