Stay Tuned for an Update on PermaEthos

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

Stay tuned our group just met and I will be publishing details tomorrow as to what we are going to do as far as more students for the PermaEthos PDC.

The basic view I now have … Continue reading →

PDC Sold Out Officially at 2:47 PM

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

I am highly considering doing this and still only doing for the MSB. Here is why.  I have heard from well more than 20 people today that tried to get in and failed that I have personally met over the years.  Supporting members who have supported the MSB for a long time.  People who tried and had technical issues, etc.  The big thing is community members who have supported TSP for multiple years. I know we … Continue reading →
