Episode-1533- 12 Guideposts to Lifestyle Design

Some people say that The Survival Podcast could be called the Homestead Podcast or even The Permaculture Podcast, but I don’t agree.  We talk about a lot more than those topics.  Those are just two tools we use to accomplish the goal of individual liberty. Today I am giving you 12 guideposts to lifestyle design.  I was going to call them 12 rules but since I am such a fan of breaking rules that seemed incongruent. Each of us wants things in our life, most of us also want things OUR of our lives.  Survival is just the start, most … Continue reading →

Episode-1531- From Revolution to Insurrection

Yes it may be time for a new theme song, “The Insurrection is You”? Not sure on that in practice but perhaps in principle it is a better way of thinking. One thing I said in my talk at PermaCulture voices near the end was that, “The time for revolution has past, they had a chance to surrender….A revolution is a transfer in power from one group of leaders to another group of leaders, an insurrection is a transfer of power from those in power into the hands of the insurrectionists themselves, and that is you, take it back, take … Continue reading →

Episode-1434- Ben Hewitt on Unschooling aka Immersion Learning

Ben Hewitt was born and raised in northern Vermont, where he currently lives on a 40-acre diversified hill farm with his wife, Penny, and two sons, Fin and Rye. Fin and Rye sons are educated at home in the context of a life-learning process known colloquially as unschooling. The Hewitt’s believe that contemporary, institutionalized American educational expectations create “childhood deficit disorder” and do not allow for full maturity of mind, spirit, and skills. Nor do modern public educational options offer the practical, hands-on skills that reduce one’s reliance on industry. Fin and Rye are highly skilled woodsmen, proficient with firearms … Continue reading →

Episode-1432- Why the Current Generation is “Lost”

You might think that the most difficult questions I get come from older folks who have been around a while, you would be wrong.  The most difficult questions to answer come from young people, asking “what do I do with my life”, in some sort of way. The current generation (Millennials) and the one coming next (Generation Z) take a lot of flack.  We hear they are lazy, don’t know the value of hard work and never knew a day without a computer.  Really, well, hey Boomers and Gen X on that last one, few of us knew a day … Continue reading →

I put out a simple post on the TSP Facebook page yesterday, it simply said, “Hey TSP Nation, what do you want tomorrow’s show to be about“?  I was kind of blown away but how fast so many great ideas came in.  Frankly I think I am going to busy for months now.  Some of the requests are great but I need more than one day to put them together. There was one though that I realized I have never done, simply how to become a teacher.  Now not a school teacher, or even say a bush craft teacher but … Continue reading →

I am not sure why but I have been hit up with a ton of emails lately asking for career and business advice.  I guess something is stirring up the natural desire for liberty at a higher level and many are seeing their employment for what it is, indentured servitude. Jobs are not inherently bad things.  I had many jobs over the years.  Some people don’t want to be entrepreneurs they just want a better career and a better place to work. I find it hard to advise people on this stuff.  Yes I spent a lot of years employee … Continue reading →

Today TSP is a great episode to share with new folks, especially those new to prepping.  Every once in a while I have to take a real back up and discuss things at the basic level and frankly the starting out level. Funny quick story here, when I started The Survival Podcast and coined the phrase modern survivalist in 2008 I was advised by many well meaning people to use the term Prepper and rebrand as say the Modern Prepper Podcast or something.  Why?  Survivalist was considered scary, tin hattish, new world order obsessed, etc. I stuck to the following, … Continue reading →

Episode-1379- The Profitable Small Acre Homestead

Homesteading is a dream for a lot of people, a some day idea.  Generally it is usually this way.  I need a job, so I need to be close to work, so we can’t afford a  huge place close enough, so ONE DAY I will have enough saved to make the move. This can and does work, but one day has a way of becoming a moving target, a carrot before the horse that keeps the cart moving yet never is tasted for many.  So my view is for some at least, the homestead can at least in time become … Continue reading →

Yes I know it is supposed to be a Monday feedback show but sometimes I am called or inspired to talk on a subject.  After Friday’s rant about legalized cheating in the class room, I feel it is necessary to do two things to be “fair to educators”, as quite a few people have asked for that. The first part won’t make those calling for fairness happy but it is about being fair, fair to the children in these systems of programming.  In part one of the show I will further define the problem until it is so in your … Continue reading →

When I first began doing TSP I told the story of The Ant and the Grasshopper many times.  Today I want to remind you of another story, the story of the Tortoise and the Hare.  Like the story of the Ant and the Grasshopper, this story is a well known fable of Aesop. The basics are the tortoise and hare race, eh hare is obviously favored to win.  He gets cocky, he takes a nap, the tortoise plods along and wins.  Don’t worry I will tell the full story on the air, but that is the basics. While there is … Continue reading →
