Today I am at home and wanted to take the opportunity to do another listener feedback episode. We discuss some political things today like China’s role in global government and the new health care bill that just came out of the senate. We also discuss some more traditional topics like firearms selection and training, using swales for permaculture and we even get to read another “hate email” to me.
We also make a few announcements today that include our awesome new survival forum theme designed by SisterWolf who is also one of the forces behind the TSP Gear Shop.
Join me today as we discuss…
- Why are thing like tax increases and public funding of abortion in the health care bill
- Why some form of this bill is going to be passed even though most Americans don’t want it
- The sob story we are going to hear from Blue Dogs and RINOs about the eventual compromise
- The one hope we really still have to prevent national health care, it isn’t in the House and Senate
- What is a swale, how does it work, why do you want them
- How do you create swales in flat desert land
- Is TSP now “all about the money”
- Why growing your own food is a path to freedom
- Why the modern survival community is feared by many, be proud of it folks
- Thoughts on choosing a first gun, getting training, etc

Today we do another round of listener questions on all kinds of stuff like alternative energy, gardening, real estate, bug out locations and more.
First let me take a moment to mention the sad passing of Linda Rawles (wife of James Wesley Rawles). James have hugely contributed to the survivalist and prepper movement over the past few years. Let me state as a husband myself that when a man gives this much his wife must give as well and his actions are driven as much by his passion to help others as to be a good husband and provider. I can only imagine what it is like to loose the woman who is the love of your life. Please think of James and send him your thoughts and prayers during this time. (You can see James’ post about his loss on his blog here)
Second the audio today is not as good as usual (ironic as to my comments to aspiring podcasters today). There is a setting on the recorder that got changed and I did not notice it until I got to my office. I apologize but will be REMOVING COMMENTS asking me about the audio today since I have posted the reason for it already. In addition to the accidentally changed setting part of today’s audio issue were the heavy rain pounding on the car.
Tune in today to hear me answer…
- What will happen with the health care debate? (please not NOT what I want to happen but what I think WILL HAPPEN and remember you guys asked, lots of you asked)
- What does it mean if land is zoned “commercial” or more importantly when a commerical piece of land is selling WAY below market value, what can it teach us about buying land and real estate?
- How the hell do you deal with squash groups?
- Can social programs work at a very local government level?
- What can you do for a garden if your yard is fully shaded?
- Is it too late to start a garden in north for the fall, what crops are best for fall gardening?
- What if someone owns the mineral rights to land you are considering buying?
- What advice do I have for a person wanting to start up their own podcast?
- How do you get your employer on board with disaster planning?
- When it comes to green energy and food preps do the “ends justify the means”?
