Today I will cover a variety of your questions and comments. Many were sent to me via email, if you do that for a future show remember to always put TSPC in the subject line, ask your question or make your point in one clear sentence then hit return a few times and give me your details for the best chance to get on air.
I also picked up some of this from various comments on social media, my YouTube videos, etc. Today we discuss biochar, back yard livestock, bankrupt cities, BRICS, cooking meat, batteries on the cheap, fishing, colleges closing down, ChatGPT and more.
Join Me Today to Discuss…
- Would a 60 degree walled “fire brick rectangle” be a good biochar kiln
- Would I mostly recommend a “back yard livestock” approach to homesteading over gardening at this point
- What does it look like when a city goes bankrupt – link
- Stop listening to people who tell you BRICS doesn’t matter, they are all “backwater countries” etc.
- Where can you find “good” temps for meat cooking target temps
- How to properly run and manage a deep litter system in a chicken coup
- A listener’s tip on getting stupid cheap batteries – link

I had no idea what BRICS was. Took five minutes and looked it up on Wikipedia. OH BOY!!!
I asked some questions to myself then looked up the answers. Within one hour I had answers.
The biggest oil companies are based in?
World top wheat exporters?
World top rice exporters?
World top corn exporters?
Most of the countries listed under BRICS are in the top 5 of each question. Plus the other countries getting on board with BRICS provide either a service or resource (gold, oil, etc) that is needed. United States is not needed as much as the US population thinks.
As Patriot Nurse said: Get your beans, bullets and bandaids together.
But remember don’t worry because “mOsT oF dOzE cOUntRzEEs aRe jUsT mUH baCKwAtErSSSSS”, the TV says so, so it must be true. lol
QUESTION: I live in a zoning area and cannot have livestock…but do you think it would be doable to raise rabbits outside for meat? To have meat that doesn’t have all the shit in it and to save money. I live in Ohio…in the winter, I could keep them warm with straw. Please let me know
Well I would just say they are pets, and do it. That said I don’t have any experience with rabbit raising in cold climates. You’re gonna have to buy bunnies so talk to suppliers about their set ups and get the infrastructure in place before getting them.
Thank you for your response to the bio-char question. Part of the question goes to ascetics. Burn barrels aren’t super good looking. To make biochar while “having a nice fire” to sit around, at an economical price is the question. Maybe “The Best Cooker” is the best. It did sound convenient and time is a cost.
