No Show Today

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

I am dealing with some issues that have arisen here at the homestead.  Nothing major but some stuff that popped up and needs attending to.  Given this is a Friday and those shows take hours to do I will need to preempt it this week.  To make up for it we will do a listener calls show Monday. While there is no show today I do  have a few suggestions for your education and entertainment today. First Geoff Lawton released an awesome new video today!  It is on Cell Grazing and you can see it at this link, http://www.geofflawton.com/fe/63637-cell-grazing I … Continue reading →

Frankly I almost never use the term zombie apocalypse because of the stigma by those that don’t get its generic meaning.  Anything that causes the end of the world as you know it is often referred to as “the zombies” or such by the survivalist community.  Many in this community are waiting for it to happen, they are concerned with peak oil, a pandemic, a EMP, a CME, an economic collapse, the rise of the “Blue Helments” and “agenda 21” among other scary TEOTWAWKI scenarios. The truth is all those scenarios are possible, some probable to the point of not … Continue reading →

Today we have the great pleasure of having Geoff Lawton on to discuss many of his new upcoming free videos, his coming online PDC and how he feels Permaculture is changing the world. There is a lot going on in the Permaculture world, even some in fighting, I always love the way Geoff stays above this type of thing but I do give him the opportunity to talk about what qualifies one to “teach permaculture” and what a PDC is really supposed to be about today.  We then turn to some other topics such as, making a living with permaculture, … Continue reading →

Off to a bit of a late start today as we recover from our 5 days of running the mobile battery bank workshop.  Today on the Survival Podcast I take your comments, questions and thoughts on education, technology, politics, agenda 21, economics and more. 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. Please understand I receive several hundred emails a day and can’t get them all on the air. I also … Continue reading →

Potential Bee Keeping Workshop with Michael Jordan

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

We are considering running a bee keeping workshop the first week of May with an awesome guy named Michael Jordan (AKA The Bee Whisperer).  I met Michael face to face for the first time in Colorado at the Self Reliance Expo last year.  I was impressed but that was just the start.  In November he attended our Earthworks Workshop.  Frankly I should have paid him to come for the amount of adjunctive teaching he did! I have met a ton of bee keepers in my days, never anyone that holds a candle to this guy’s knowledge.  My only concern is … Continue reading →
