Today’s episode was created by the audience during a MeWe Monday chat.  There are a few keys here.  First we are not recreating the Bug Out Trailer series with Steven Harris, it is not an exhaustive list of everything you need to bug out to Tin Buck Two. This is designed to be stuff that can be in just about any vehicle at all times and yet you still have room for your groceries and your kids. Next while two is one and one is none, we are not looking to over do redundancy here.  So this list assumes you … Continue reading →

I want to do some back to basics shows, this one very basic.  Many of us have bug out bags, aka BOBs.  Some are very advanced and use a lot of specialized equipment.  There is a place for such things.  But some folks are so proud of their kitted up BOBs that when they talk about them newer folks to prepping get paralized. As in well I need special forces ration bars, a solar panel, top notch ultralight rain gear, a 500 dollar survival knife, etc, etc, etc And you know what folks, due to the quest for perfection and … Continue reading →

Episode-1486- 20 Simple Prepper Steps Every American Should Take that Most Don’t

Yesterday I did a “back to fundamentals” show on permaculture, today I am going to do one on basic preparedness.  On some levels it is great that prepping has become its own “industry”.  This brings some unique products to the market and allows preppers to buy from companies that think like they do.  On the other hand, it has also attracted parasites to our world. Said parasites hype every news story to infer the end of the world, dollar, oil, _____, will be here in just a few short months.  They cite “CIA insiders” that are likely some dweeb that … Continue reading →

Monday I took a question on “economic collapse” and tried to explain that no that isn’t going to  happen, not the way many think about it anyway.  That the collapse is here, it is on going and it will have both chronic and acute symptoms.  In short instead of prepping for TEOTWAWKI (the end of the world as we know it) many should be prepping for TEOYWAYKI (the end of your world as you know it) As usual when you try to explain this some people feel that means, well, “it isn’t so bad” so do we even need to … Continue reading →

Episode-690- Not the End but a Massive Shift of the World as we Know It

One of the favorite topics on prepper forums and in doomer literature is TEOTWAWKI (the end of the world as we know it).  I think what many fail to focus on with this is the (as we know it) portion.  The fact is the world as people of their time knew it has ended many times, it will continue to end. At one time a Roman citizen was the most advantaged in the world, so also there was a time when it was a great to be a Greek, an Aztec or a member of the Hopi Tribe.  None of … Continue reading →

Today I though I would give sort of a mile high view of taking your home from grass hopper fields of green to organized ant hill.  Or if you are on the journey already from disorganized ant hill to  organized ant fortification.   Getting prepared seems tough, it seems beyond reach and on some levels it is.   One can never be fully prepared for everything but getting to well prepared for most things is doable in steps. Join me today as we discuss… Another look at the old story, The Grasshopper and the Ant Taking an inventory Journaling items used on … Continue reading →

Episode-421- How to Develop Your Personal Survival Plan

Monday I responded to a listener who asked a question about planning and he was hoping for a checklist.  My response was that I can’t really give you a hard check list because you must develop your own plan (Tenet Ten of Modern Survival Philosophy).  From the beginning of TSP I have stated that to be the case, I also realized that it has been a long time since I did a show on planning and that I have never really dissected the personal aspect of planning for the needs of the individual and their immediate family.  So today we … Continue reading →

Today’s show will not be an exhuasting inventory of what I keep in my bug out bag or even what you should keep in yours.  Instead we will cover a few often over looked and ignored items that you may want to consider adding to your 72 hour emergency kit. Tune in today to hear… The origin of the orginal concept of a bug out bag (at least according to online forums) Understanding bug out vs. battle pack or even survival kit The most over looked item in a bug out bag documentation, procedure and contact documentation The GPS, why … Continue reading →

Today we discuss why survivalists are “preparing” in the first place.  Starting out with an old fable we tell the original version of The Lesson of the Grasshopper and the Ant and move on to seven threats and how the prepping for them all is quite similar. Tune in today to hear… How we have changed the classic tale of the Ant and the Grasshopper and how it has impacted America The real threat of depression or recession The reality of a true eventual economic collapse The impact of “climate change” independent of man’s part in it The fact that … Continue reading →

The key to getting truly prepared for anything is planning, today’s show is two lessons in one with prioritizing goals to a get a mission accomplished. To get on track and explain the logic of my system of planning I first go over the “debt snowball” which has been made popular by syndicated radio personality Dave Ramsey. Tune in today as we discuss The mentality behind the debt snowball and how that same mentality can be applied to survival planning Ranking and listing the threats that are most likely to impact your life How to do a personal threat assessment … Continue reading →
