Most of today’s show is a rebroadcast of 2008’s Christmas special. Today we pause and take a moment to reflect on Christmas and how it has become the Holiday we celebrate today. Many American’s have no idea just how Christmas became unique here in America, the role it played in bringing our nation together after two wars of independence and the civil war. Christmas is special and a time to pause and reflect. Christmas is indeed a special time of year, today I will cover many aspects of it that may make this Christmas just a bit more special. There … Continue reading →

Today we have a minor inconvenience when our power went out.  Out came the 6K Troy-Bilt Generator and soon daily emails were being handled and hot coffee was had by all.  I posted a picture of it on Facebook and was amazed how a few fellow preppers sort of crapped on the concept. It was a very few but still it shows a problem with mindset in my view.  To the guy who recommended solar I am not including you in this group of a few, don’t want you getting your panties in a wad or anything, LOL. One person … Continue reading →

How to Build a Survival House and Garden Permaculture Style

The Survival Podcast Posted on December 19, 2012 by Modern SurvivalDecember 19, 2012

It seems that I have described “Y2K Dave’s Survival Garden” from Geoff Lawton and Bill Mollison’s PDC on DVD course many times.  Every time I find it very difficult to convey in audio format so I decided to do a video and in spite of my poor artistic skills I think it will make a lot more sense this time around. Effectively what Y2K Dave ended up with was a bug out location within a bug out location and the construction cost was about 1,000 dollars.  It certainly isn’t a 3 bed, 2 bath condo on the water but it … Continue reading →

I have a great interview with Jennifer Ess of “Rainy Day Food Storage” for you today.  We only talked for about 25 minutes but the ideas and tips and simple formulas are great.  With this information you can turn all those huge cans of long term storage food into meal size ready to go recipes. Jennifer joins us today to discuss why creating meals in a jar makes sense for busy people.  The self life of these meals.  The easy way to make these meals shelf stable.  A simple formula for creating your own recipes and how you guys can … Continue reading →

Two New Videos on Permaculture Terrace Creation

The Survival Podcast Posted on December 18, 2012 by Modern SurvivalDecember 18, 2012

Here are two new videos on building terraces.  These methods will work best in areas with a gentle slope, a source of fill and organic matter on site or at low cost and lots of rocks available.  The basic principles though can be employed anywhere.  These videos are part of a growing series that is now 15 videos long, if you want the entire play list you can find it here.

First today I take some time to do a follow up on yesterdays show/video where I discussed how the “lock down” plan most of our schools have does not “keep our children safe” as we have been led to believe.  Many people called it Monday morning quarterbacking (such people don’t know the real meaning of the term) and some brought up some very valid “what if” questions. So today I will cover more on the subject.  I also want to be clear I was not advocating “the plan” should be evacuate and only evacuate, just that evacuate needs to be … Continue reading →

What No One Will Say About the Connecticut School Shootings

The Survival Podcast Posted on December 17, 2012 by Modern SurvivalMay 20, 2013

This video is possibly the most important video I have ever done or will do.  The sad fact is “the plan” most schools have to deal with an active shooter scenario will do little to nothing to protect our children.  I do not know the entire solution but I know part of it, when someone is trying to kill you, if you can get out of the area of threat, that is what you do.  Please share this with your friends, specifically parents, LEOs, teachers and anyone setting policy in our school systems.

Make sure if you submit content for a feedback show that you put something like “comment for jack”, “question for jack” or “article for jack” in the subject line to assure proper identification for my screening process. Today we discuss what no one will say about the shootings in CT, fitness, threats to your 401k, the mileage tax, using a meat processor for deer meat and prepping as a family.
