Dr. Berry has been asking me question after question about Bitcoin recently by text but the help you can give someone by text is limited. I was going to ask him to call me and do it that way, but then I got a thought, why not have him ask me on air. Flip the interview process for fun. What will happen, will I get frustrated and call Ken a Boomer? Will I have to tell him to stay away from shit coins? You won’t know unless you tune in today.

The Back Yard Cover Crops and Soil Secrets Course is Here

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

Today we are officially launching The Back Yard Cover Crops and Soil Secrets Course at Home Food Systems.  When I first began creating this course I expected it to be 3-4 chapters but as I began creating the syllabus and constantly considering the “buy why” question to everything I was building into it, it quickly grew to 9 chapters. At this point I can confidently say, this is a PhD level course at the knowledge level, but it is absolutely 100% approachable for anyone.  It empower you to determine exactly what to do based on your climate, context and goals … Continue reading →

The first time I used the phrase “from home to homestead” on the show was quite a while ago.  How long ago you ask?  That would have been Episode 20 recorded on July 22, 2008.  This concept so resonated with people it became not just a common discussion topic, it actually inspired one couple (Johnny Max and his wife, AKA “The Queen”) to run an entire podcast for a number of years on the concept. I realized while we talk a ton about the concept of homesteading we have not looked at it from this angle in a while, so … Continue reading →

There is a math concept known as the “lowest common denominator” but this phrase is also used to describe people. It refers to, “the tendency to simplify or compromise complex ideas, art, or culture to appeal to the broadest possible audience, often at the expense of intellectual rigor or artistic merit”. The bullet points for today’s show were originally use in Episode 2548, published in June of 2019, about 6 months before the start of the CoVid Pandemic. The words proved more prophetic than I could have dreamed. So today we revisit this concept about over 5 years later. Join … Continue reading →
