Today we are joined by Billy Bond to discuss taking back control of your food, your health, and your vitality.

This is not just about having a garden or storing some extra food. It is about understanding the systems that keep you alive and becoming less dependent on systems you have little or no control over. Billy and I will dig into what we have outsourced when … Continue reading →

A time bomb is ticking, and it is the kind of bomb you can not disarm. We all hear it. We keep hoping some fiscal bomb squad will show up and shut it down, but deep down, we know they are not coming. The question is not if the bomb goes off. It is when, and what the aftermath looks like. Run from the blast radius? You can not. Forty trillion dollars in US federal debt is more powerful than any weapon we have ever detonated. But this bomb does not level a city overnight. It corrodes and breaks down … Continue reading →

Today we are joined by Ryan Steva to discuss how to build a practical backup power plan that goes well beyond simply buying a generator and hoping for the best.

When you talk about dehydrating food many jump right to the prepper angle.  And not just the common sense prepping angle we make part of lifestyle design at TSPC.  No the 500 buckets ready to ride out the zombie apocalypse kind of prepping. The truth though is dehydrating is likely mans oldest form of food preservation along with perhaps salting, which is honestly just another form of dehydration.  The reason is obvious.  First it works for many foods and all you really need to do it is sunshine during the dry season.
