Episode-1241- The Possibilities of Abundance in Spite of Modern Self Destruction

The Survival Podcast Posted on November 5, 2013 by Modern SurvivalNovember 5, 2013

Today I am going to talk about permacutlure from an entirely different angle then I have in the past.  What I mean is the concept that really makes permaculture brilliant isn’t swales, food forests and biogas energy.  No it is the concept that we can do the following… Take responsibility for our own existence and that of our children and do so while not harming others, not harming natural systems and generate sufficient surplus for it to work. That of course is taking the prime directive of permaculture and the three ethics and making one goal oriented sentence out of … Continue reading →

Episode-1057- Zero to Prepared – Fast, Simple and Low Cost- Part 2

Today we cover part two of going from zero to prepared.  If you haven’t listened to part one of this series yet, you really should do so first.  You will notice that title of this episode ends in “low cost” vs. “cheap”. As a marketer there is a rule, if you can eliminate a word do it, but that won’t work here.  Cheap sets the wrong tone for what we will discuss today, we are talking about protecting your life, your property and the lives of those you love, one doesn’t go “cheap” with such things. Today may seem like … Continue reading →

Join me today as I welcome Chad Kuntz an Electrical Engineer with 10 years of experience working for large utility company building substation generation facilities with back up power redundancy. Today he joins us to discuss generator systems for our homes, sizing a generator to your needs and deciding between DIY vs. professional installation depending on your ability and system requirements. Personally I have found that most sales people who call themselves “experts” or “consultants” in the generator industry tend to attempt to sell you the largest system possible vs. address your actual needs.   So I am very happy to … Continue reading →

So Paul Wheaton is back for another interview that basically means when the two of us get together you might as well strap in for about 90 minutes of information, entertainment and insanity.  No guarantee on the ratios by the way. Today Paul joins us to discuss cooking with and caring for cast iron cookware, his work to determine the effectiveness of CFS (or lack there of) and building and utilizing rocket mass heaters. Additionally tune in to learn about an event where you can meet both Paul and myself along with one of our mutual heroes, Sepp Holtzer. Paul … Continue reading →

Episode-516- A New Look at Peak Oil

The Survival Podcast Posted on September 23, 2010 by Modern SurvivalJuly 26, 2012

After yesterday’s interview with Chris Martenson I have been unable to get the concept of Peak Oil out of my head.  What I am reconnecting with mentally right now is how many people don’t have any idea what peak oil is all about. Peak oil isn’t the end of oil it is only the point at which production reaches a peak and can’t continue to grow concurrently with demand. Additionally most people are not aware of what oil really means to our economy beyond the obvious.  How oil effects coal extraction, wind power, making plastic, making medicine, transporting our food, … Continue reading →

Today we discuss the so called “drop in oil prices to 108 dollars a barrel”, why it isn’t a real drop and why prices will continue to rise.  Tune in today and hear The first five winners of our listener appreciation contest My warning for South Florida and Hurricane Ike The effects on oil no one is talking about Why the drop isn’t a drop and Wall Street knows it The reality of the “movement” of oil prices between 2005 and 2008 How small adjustments by U.S. consumers have major impacts on oil prices What “oil speculation” really is an … Continue reading →

Episode-15- The Lies of Ethanol and Biofuel

Note – There is an error in today’s podcast. When I stated that it took 400 pounds of corn to make a gallon of ethanol that was a mistake. What I meant to say was 400 pounds of corn to produce 25 gallons or one tank of gas. Today we will start off with a quick look at two financial stories that are being spun as “positive”. First we will look at the decision by the Federal Reserve to bail out Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae and how once again the M3 Money supply will be inflated further devaluing the … Continue reading →
