Yesterday was honestly a bit of a clunky show for me.  Sorry if it seemed that way, you can’t always bat 1,000 you know.  Anyway it ended up in a good place, it forced me to ask some hard questions and to realize a few things should be discussed here.  Specifically in regard to freedom.  Things we discussed many times but now we should discuss with a direct personal application. Some things we must understand about freedom in order to have it First – no one can define freedom for you nor can you for another.  This is actually anti … Continue reading →

Today’s show is different for a feedback show.  We don’t go email to email like normal.  I am taking a larger look at the coming election. I receive dozens a questions on my predictions per day so I thought I would just take a look at where we are now.  Where we are headed as far as the coming elections and the implications of that. Today I tell you why President Bernie Sanders could happen, why frankly it is more likely that most would think.  While it still isn’t my primary pick, I explain why it could happen and what … Continue reading →

Great Interview I did with Diego Footer

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

I just took the time to do an interview with Diego Footer on his podcast Permaculture Voices.  It is fun to on occasion be on the other side of an interview.  It lets you get more in touch with what people really want to know. It is one thing to get questions every day but getting a question with multiple on the fly follow ups is different. We had a blast, it was about business including typical businesses, lifestyle businesses like TSP and even on farm businesses like what we are doing with Nine Mile Farm. If you are new … Continue reading →

Chris Martenson, PhD (Duke), MBA (Cornell) is an economic researcher and futurist specializing in energy and resource depletion, and co-founder of PeakProsperity.com (along with Adam Taggart).

It’s a popular and well-regarded distillation of the interconnected forces in the Economy, Energy and the Environment (the “Three Es” as Chris calls them) that are shaping the future, one that will be defined by … Continue reading →

Yesterday’s show ran a theme of a penny saved is a tax free penny earned and how that compounds when invested outside the systems of taxation.  I love this sort of individual liberation thinking.  Then today I answered a question about a stove I mentioned last week.  You can read about that here on the Nine Mile Farm Blog. The basic take away is often you can acquire multiple items instead of an “all in one item” in doing so you will reduce or keep your cost the same while gettting greater functionality, flexibility, performance and redundancy. While some of … Continue reading →

Almost 7000 People Joined the Regenerative Agriculture Group So Far – Come See Why

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

On Oct. 16th 2015 I started a new FaceBook group called Regenerative Agriculture.  I think a lot of people simply thought, “oh another group, big deal”.  Well let me tell you that is not the case. We are building something special, really special folks.  In only 87 days our group has gone from a half a dozen folks who felt there was “a better way to do this” to 6685 members as of this posting. It isn’t just numbers though, this is a group totally free of political debates and other things that get in the way of a single … Continue reading →
