I still am sitting on a huge back log of questions and inputs from my week away so I though I would do some catching up for you today. Additionally some recent shows have provoked a few questions/concerns/objections that I thought I would handle today as well.
I have also been asked on the forum to do a show called “The Best of the Tin Foil Hat Brigade”, discussing the possible reality behind some conspiracy theories. That may be a bit much for an entire show if such theories are not your thing so today I will pick one or two from that thread and give you my opinion (note the word OPINION) on them.
Tune in today to discuss…
- Barter is reportable as income to the IRS – SO WHAT!
- Do I “hate government” and want all things turned over to the corporations
- Is there anything at all behind the 9-11 Truther Movement
- Is now a good time to buy gold and silver given their current pricing
- How much longer will vacuum sealed seeds store than conventionally stored
- Fluoride is a toxin? Yes!
- Buying metal online or locally and the sales tax effect

Today we discuss 10 edible plants that are not very common in most backyards or stores and the unique advantages they offer the modern survivalists concerned with producing their own food. Each of these plants offers unique advantages to the backyard and small homestead grower. Advantages such as good nutritional profiles, disease resistance, ease in seed saving, heat tolerance and more.
Note that the seed sources below are comprised of many sources. You can get many of these seeds from multiple providers. I just wanted the opportunity today to expose you today to a variety of solid providers of organic and non GMO seed.
Join me today as we discuss the following unusual edible plants…

I know it is over 100 degrees in many places right now, the pool is even getting to warm right? Fall is a million miles away, I am here to day, no sir it isn’t. For many fall is less then 60 days away, in many instances the cool fall air and the changes with it are only 30 days out. It is time to start thinking about fall and winter expecially with your gardens.
In the intro segment I announce Nancy Pelosi as “assclown of the day” for her swastika comments. I also recognize a group of retired people as “heroes of the day” for standing up as members of the AARP and not being walked on by the far younger people that were dictating to the members how they should think.
Then before the main subject I do a review of the Kaito Voyager Radio, my recommendation is do not buy this. Tune in for full details today, it isn’t all bad I just don’t think you are going to get your money’s worth at this price point.
