So right now the entire global economic order is falling apart, supply chains are being disrupted, food production facilities are burning down for no good reason and the elite are trying to start a world war. And what are the “normies” worried about? A skinny ugly dude in a dress got a can of Bud Light in the mail and made tik tok videos with it. So what do we do? Double down on building our own futures in our own way. Join Me Today to Discuss… Bread and circuses has turned to pharmaceuticals and TV A dairy farm “exploded” … Continue reading →

The first time I used the phrase “from home to homestead” on the show was quite a while ago.  How long ago you ask?  That would have been Episode 20 recorded on July 22, 2008.  This concept so resonated with people it became not just a common discussion topic, it actually inspired one couple (Johnny Max and his wife, AKA “The Queen”) to run an entire podcast for a number of years on the concept. I realized while we talk a ton about the concept of homesteading we have not looked at it from this angle in a while, so … Continue reading →

Sometimes I feel society in on the edge of yet another split.  Those that value things like gardens, back yard birds and foraging, and those who see no value in such things.  These people look around and see a world when you can summon a car with a cell phone, to either take you to dinner or bring dinner to you. Unlike 2008 when I began the journey of this podcast people are not in touch with our current economic situation.  While I feel we are on the verge of a recession that will be worse than 2008, currently if … Continue reading →

Do you think billionaires “cheat on their taxes”?  Do you think if we “taxed the rich” anything would change?  Do you think you’d be more successful if we “changed the system”?  Do you think anyone will ever fix “our problems” for us? If so you are in for a world of fire and brimstone today! Everything is all on you and it always has been!  Accepting it is the hard part.

A Master Class in Statist Jiu Jitsu – Epi-3182

I have been throwing around this term, “statist jiu jitsu” for a long time, over a decade for sure but it has been a while since we have dug into it.  A new potential rule about who is and is not a contractor, proposed by the Brandon Administration brought it back into my sights this week. Honestly this rule if enacted is so simple to circumvent (assuming both sides want to) it is amazing no one is pointing out how to do so, at all.  I am going to do exactly that today. Then we will dig into some other … Continue reading →

Today we are going to face six simple phrases that most people’s minds will attempt to reject the second they are heard or read.  In other words today I am going to guide you on a journey where you must confront the most difficult adversary you will ever face.  Yourself. Our lead phrase is a perfect example, when I say, “respect is given when it is required” I am going to bet you think, “bullshit, respect is earned”.  When you hear how I challenge that I hope that it makes you start to question many things.  Things about yourself, what … Continue reading →

Today we take a look at a future that is potentially very dark.  Food shortages, economic controls, the expansion of surveillance and more are all not only likely, but in progress.  How do you fight back when the enemy is within your ranks and in charge of everything? This may smack of conspiracy theory to some who are long time listeners who usually hear my upbeat and practical advice on a daily basis.  I wish it was, I wish we were not in the position we are in America today but we are.  And over and over again we are … Continue reading →

Today’s episode is a fun one.  Last week I presented the body of this podcast via a remote livestream to Anarchopulco 2022.  We had about 25 folks here at my place in a live audience as well.  I was able to obtain a rough copy of the presentation and did a live feed and rebroadcast today. We did not just do that though, we had a great question and comment segment at the end as well.  So tune in today and prepare to be inspired.

This episode will likely go in a direction you will not expect based on either the title or the graphic I chose for a thumbnail. Today we are going to look at the current, (yes current) and ongoing collapse a different way. From the lens of the death of “trust” and the role we can play in building new institutions, communities, systems, etc that are worth of the trust that is largely dead in society today.
