Today its Friday so it’s time for the expert council show. To ask a question for a show like this, just send an email to me at jack at thesurvivalpodcast.com with “TSPC Expert” in the subject line.
Today on The Survival Podcast, the expert council answers questions on solar, mechanical work, hiking, N95 masks, diet, nutrition, mulch, parenting, liberty and more.
In the body of your email first tell me the council member your question is for. Second ask your question concisely in one to two sentences maximum. Third any and all details after that. This is the formula to give you the best chance of getting on the air.
I do what I can to get as many of your questions as possible on the air but can’t always get to all of them. Our council is made of a wide variety of experts in everything from the tactical to the practical and everything in between.
To get more information on our Expert Council visit our “Meet the Expert Council Page” to learn more about them and their specific areas of expertise.

Jack, you nailed it, on many fronts, don’t let government define anything important, not just Columbus Day, would be my add.
Absolutely not just Columbus Day or even days but what anything does and or does not mean to you.
On sleeping well on a hike…
Having a comfortable pillow helped me immensely.
Exped and sea to summit have light weight inflatable models.
I went with the exped because it has loops on the sides. I tied a length of shock cord to those loops. Then loop the cord around my sleeping pad to keep the pillow in place at night.
Cheers

Re: letting gov’t define meaning of a day
It’s almost the same kind of nonsense with people on Twitter saying not to use the “ok” hand sign because a handful of white nationalists are now using it and trying to make it their own. I honestly don’t remember the last time I ever used that hand sign and don’t care about using it, but the level of conformity and lack of critical thought these people are demonstrating is mind-blowing. Why would one let a handful of racist idiots and some pranksters (who supposedly started the whole thing on 4chan or something) manipulate one’s opinions and behavior so easily? IMO this just encourages more of this nonsense
Sometimes being an entire continent away from all these twits (both the instigators and the PC sheep) doesn’t seem to be quite far enough…
