In today’s show we talk about land stewardship and permaculture as a true form of investing for the future. I also do a brief bit on politics today. A simple question, “how does Barak Obama define middle class income?”, as in give us a number. Second a bit on on John McCain’s pick of Alaska governor Sarah Palin as his V.P. running mate. Please Note – I made a correction on today’s show in audio and spliced it in but it will also be repeated here. For some reason I referred to Governor Palin as “Kathryn Palin” which of course … Continue reading →

Today’s show expands on yesterday’s and gives you five more lies that most American’s believe to be true. No conspiracy theories or tin foil hat concepts here. This stuff is all wide open and easy to verify as fact by reading simple history and looking at current realities. Sorry for the background noise in today’s show, while I think the audio is over all much better my mobile studio seemed to attract every semi truck on the highway today. Tune in today to get my thoughts on, The lie that the “governments role is to solve the problems of the … Continue reading →

Episode-42- Five Lies that Attack Individual Freedom and Liberty

Today’s podcast covers five lies that have been marketed to people by both industry and government and how they take away individual liberty and national freedom. This show is a long one but these were some things I feel honestly called to speak about and I have a great deal of passion for them. I know many listeners are more interested in practical preparation but one can not separate survival mentality from individual liberty. Where as the sheeple follow the government and seek solutions from them, the individualist knows that he or she is the master of their own fate. … Continue reading →

Episode-41- Thoughts on Flu Pandemic and Survival Planning for Disease Outbreaks

I recently received a request to do a show on the potential risk of an influenza outbreak (global flu pandemic) and was able to quickly put a show together on it. What is interesting is that the governments official advice is remarkably similar to the fundamental preparations that survivalists discuss every day. I encourage you to take this threat seriously because a pandemic is one of those risks that is not an “if” but simply a “when” and by what particular means. Tune into todays show to hear my thoughts on, The shocking death statistics from three pandemics in the … Continue reading →

Episode-40- Is Global Cooling the Next Real Threat?

Last Friday I discussed 5 articles covered on Survival Blogs, one that really caught my attention was on Global Cooling. Over the weekend I did some more research and discovered the science behind global cooling is honestly pretty creditable. While there are NO Guarantees in predicting any climate change, (not even tomorrows weather) this is pretty compelling. If you are true believer in Global Warming, please take a moment to visit some of the articles I link to at the end of today’s show notes. Tune in and listen to today’s show to learn my thoughts on, Why we have … Continue reading →

Today I decided to do something a bit different and I have pulled 5 topics currently being discussed by various bloggers. Tune in today to hear my thoughts on the following posts – 1. Government May Have Massive Surveillance Program for Use in “National Emergency” – From The Ignorance is Futile Blog. Summary – There may be as many as 8 Million Americans that are in a database as a potential threat during a national emergency. The article cites the following – 1. “According to a senior government official…”There exists a database of Americans, who, often for the slightest and … Continue reading →

Today’s podcast covers some truly concerning new economic indicators in the Dallas – Fort Worth Market. Keep in mind that compared to most of the U.S. the Dallas economy is “booming” fueled by the Oil & Gas, Technology and Financial Industries. Tune in today to hear my thoughts about.. A surplus of 5 years worth of ready to go residential lots and what that means to the economy How the real estate bust is slamming into other industries like the Title Industry How banks are building less new branches despite the very low cost of commercial construction right now The … Continue reading →

Tune in to hear my thoughts on… The lesson of having a Standard Operating Procedure and Following it The odds of a true complete meltdown What a true barter economy might be like Why silver coin makes a lot better sense for barter then gold The value and need to cache some of your supplies and perhaps some of your weapons How the risk of an overreaction by the government may be a much bigger risk then attacks by the “bad guys” … Continue reading →

Episode-36- The Value of a Garden and Do You Want the Crash

Today’s podcast is a short one on two quite different subjects.  In the first segment we discuss the actual financial value of a small home garden.  The numbers are quite surprising with even a very modest garden producing well over 500 dollars a year in food based on current supermarket pricing.  With a bit more examination we discuss how it could easily move up to 1,000-1,500 dollars.    Then further how a bit of permaculture can ratchet it up to 2,500 dollars or more even on small suburban lots. I then ask the question, “does some part of you want the … Continue reading →
