Today’s we are going to talk about vehicle preparedness. This is designed to be stuff that can be in just about any vehicle at all times and yet you still have room for your groceries and your kids.  Next while two is one and one is none, we are not looking to over do redundancy here.  So this list assumes you have a good BOB (72 hour kit) and that it goes in your vehicle when needed (most times) and that you also carry a reasonable EDC kit on your person. We also purposefully left out items like guns and … Continue reading →

Merten & Storck Carbon Steel Skillets – Item of the Day

The Survival Podcast Posted on by  

Every day I bring you an item on Amazon that I personally use or has been purchased by many members of the audience and I have researched enough to recommend.

So how would I improve Lodge Skillets if I could.  First I would do better milling of the surface so it was … Continue reading →

Today Hans Hageman joins us to discuss the growing crisis facing boys and young men, why “resilience” by itself is no longer enough, and what it really means to become anti-fragile. This is a conversation about what happens when young men grow up without purpose, structure, challenge, or direction, and why so many of the systems that claim to help them are actually failing them. Hans has spent his life working with boys and men in some of the hardest environments imaginable, from East Harlem to maximum security prisons, and he argues that what young men need is not protection … Continue reading →
