In Episode 229, Dave riffs his way through numerous topics this week. First up is the NBA gambling sting. From there he reviews the pause on CBP Agents being sent to San Francisco and then segues into trannies fleeing the US and Young Republicans getting eviscerated by the GOP. After that, Dave continues with a review of Gen Z Republicans propping up Newsom's public image because he looks the part while denigrating J.D. Vance. Idiots. Then he spends a fair amount of time discussing the new national debt numbers and the deployment of a carrier strike group to the Caribbean.

Hey, it's James from SurvivalPunk.com, and after a few recording hiccups, we're finally diving into one of the oldest survival skills in the book—bartering. In this episode, I break down how to make trades that actually work, why taxes make bartering awesome, and why every prepper should start practicing the art of the deal now, not after the collapse.

Ever wonder if your preparedness efforts are actually working against you? In this eye-opening truck ride episode, we dive into the surprising connection between multitasking habits and preparedness efficiency, sparked by a frustrating Starbucks experience that revealed a crucial preparedness principle. While most preppers think juggling multiple preparedness projects simultaneously makes them more productive, the reality might shock you – and it's costing you valuable time, money, and progress toward your preparedness goals. This episode explores the critical difference between harmful multitasking that derails your preparedness plans and the game-changing power of multiple-use items that every serious prepper should prioritize. You'll discover why legendary preparedness items have earned their reputation in the prepping community, and learn how multitools and multi-function gear can revolutionize your prepping strategy without breaking your budget. We'll challenge you to reimagine your existing gear through a new lens, revealing hidden multiple-use potential in items you already own while providing a practical framework for future preparedness purchases.

This episode examines American landscape one year later and whether the probability of attack is reduced or increased. My Storming America Series covers the gamut of what the spontaneous attack in the US will look like when terror cells launch a simultaneous attack on the US homeland. I cover it in Episodes 37, 41-43 and 49-50 of my Chasing Ghosts podcast. I discuss the outcome of the probable jihadist invasion of America. America is in a unique position in history in which it has facilitated the unfettered invasion of its borders and a large swath of military age males have been granted asylum or gone undetected to link up with legacy underground Islamist and terrorist groups across the country.

Every fall, I drop a “Winter Is Coming” episode, but this one hits different. After five failed recording attempts and a cursed mic, I finally got it done — and I'm diving deeper than just telling you to “buy extra blankets.” This one's about seasonal strategy, prepping for power loss, and fine-tuning your pantry before the freeze hits.

When the lights go out and society grinds to halt, what separates those who thrive from those who merely survive? The answer lies in understanding force multipliers - the strategic tools and capabilities that amplify your preparedness efforts exponentially. In this episode, Todd explores one of the most critical force multipliers every serious prepper must master: independent power generation. Drawing from real-world experience including hurricane responses, grid failures, and extended outages, this discussion reveals why power independence isn't just a convenience - it's a fundamental cornerstone of true preparedness. You'll discover the layered approach to power security that transforms your family from vulnerable to resilient, whether facing a simple power outage or a complete grid down scenario. Todd breaks down practical strategies that work across multiple threat levels, from everyday blackouts to SHTF situations, showing how the right power solutions become true force multipliers in any crisis. For Christian preppers serious about protecting their families, this episode delivers the foundational knowledge needed to build robust power independence. These aren't theoretical concepts - they're strategies that make the difference between comfort and misery when the generator becomes your lifeline and preparedness planning proves its worth.

Sometimes it's not the collapse itself that breaks you — it's realizing you'll never have ice cream again. In this episode, I dive into the “unpreppable” things we love, why they matter more than we admit, and how to recreate a little bit of normal when the grid's gone dark.

In Episode 227, Dave starts by riffing about his fears regarding the current spot prices of gold and silver by talking through an article from The Capitalist substack. From there, he reads some headlines from his email before detouring into a discussion on the shutdown, Hamas, and Putin. After all of that national and geopolitical news, Dave turns his attention to Gavin Newsom and his Glock ban. Dave then discusses a couple topics starting with the planned ‘No Kings Day' protests and the 175k applicants for ICE. After that, Dave celebrates some MAHA news but is leery of the fiber increase given the tainted grain in this country. He closes the show with some more proven conspiracy theories with weather modification.

Have you ever noticed how certain prophecy predictions gain massive traction in Christian circles, only to leave believers confused and skeptical when dates pass without fulfillment? Understanding the difference between biblical discernment and speculative conspiracy theories isn't just about protecting your faith—it's about maintaining credibility as a Christian prepper when real preparation matters most. In this episode, Todd examines the recent Rapture speculation that flooded social media in late September, exploring the legitimate biblical connections between Jewish feast days and prophetic fulfillment while exposing the dangerous pattern of date-setting that has plagued the church for years. He unpacks why there's actually scriptural support for watching certain seasons—particularly the fall feasts—without falling into the trap of definitive predictions that damage both personal faith and the broader preparedness community. This discussion reveals how conspiracy theories and unfounded prophecy claims share a common thread: just enough truth to seem credible, but enough speculation to cause real harm when expectations aren't met. For Christian preppers who want to maintain both biblical integrity and practical readiness, understanding this balance is essential. The faithful prepper knows that true preparedness means being watchful without being foolish, informed without being deceived. Whether it's prophecy speculation or preparedness hype, the principles Todd shares about discernment apply directly to how we evaluate information, make decisions, and maintain trust within our communities. This is fundamental knowledge for anyone serious about integrating their faith with their preparedness lifestyle—because when we cry wolf too often, people stop listening when real warnings matter.

Good morning, folks — James from Survival Punk here. Today's episode isn't your usual talk about gear, prepping, or bushcraft. This one hits deeper. We're talking about the men's suicide epidemic — a survival issue that too often goes unspoken. Because let's be honest, the number one rule of survival is waking up tomorrow. If you don't do that, nothing else matters.

Ever wonder why your local grocery store runs out of supplies so quickly during a crisis, or why a simple storm can leave you without power for days? In this episode of The Christian Prepper Podcast, we dive into the just in time systems that control nearly every aspect of modern life—from the food storage practices at your neighborhood supermarket to the way power companies manage the electrical grid. You'll discover why these cost-cutting business models leave little room for error and why understanding them is crucial for anyone serious about preparedness. We explore how just in time inventory management affects everything from food supply chains to infrastructure maintenance, and what this means when you're facing a power outage or grid down scenario. This conversation will help you think differently about the systems you depend on daily and why companies prioritizing profit margins over redundancy should motivate you to become more self-reliant. Whether you're new to prepping or looking to strengthen your preparedness mindset, this episode offers practical insights on focusing your efforts where they matter most. Join us for a thought-provoking discussion that will challenge you to reconsider how vulnerable these modern systems really are and what you can do about it today.

Hey, it's James from SurvivalPunk.com. Today we're diving into The Fourth Turning by William Strauss and Neil Howe — a book that's been floating around prepper circles for decades. Written in the late '90s, it predicted that by the mid-2020s America would face a massive, generation-defining crisis — something on par with the Great Depression or World War II. Spoiler: we're here, and it hasn't quite played out that way.

This CG episode got the complete audio upgrade and revision to achieve the cleanest sound ever for the podcast series effective 22 June 2025 using the new technology at Chris Williams' Podsworth. This episode examines civil war manifesting itself in the world in the west in the 21st century and some of my modest forecasts of war weather in the next few years. Dr. David Betz and others have started to float the balloons of probability and possibility of civil kinetic conflict in the West. My Storming America Series covers the gamut of what a spontaneous attack in the US will look like when terror cells launch a simultaneous attack on the US homeland which in my mind is the primary man-made vector for civil war in America. I cover it in Episodes 37, 41-43, 49-50 and 62 of my Chasing Ghosts podcast.

Today I'm diving into one of the most practical — and misunderstood — survival concepts out there: being a gray man. It's not about paranoia or cosplay; it's about understanding how visibility affects safety. Whether it's riots, protests, or just the wrong place at the wrong time, the more you blend in, the more likely you are to move unnoticed and unharmed.

Folks are reaching out and asking me why I have a bone in my teeth (forever) about the Constitution and I just managed to dig up a 2010 debate I had with Professor Daniel Walker Howe at FreedomFest. I defended the Articles of Confederation against the Constitution. I was and remain a nobody but they could not find another AoC champion. Me: “Hamilton's machinations and influence probably single-handedly turned the product of this secret confab into one of the most successful instruments of political oppression before even the creation of the USSR. What makes it even more sublime as a tool of big government is the sophisticated propaganda and hagiographic enterprise which has both spontaneously and through careful planning suborned the public's skepticism of the nature of the machine erected to control their behavior, which has resulted in an almost religious observance of all things Constitutional. Carefully cultivated over two hundred years, this religious idolatry had certainly fogged the thinking of this writer for most of his adult life. This sleeper has awakened.” More details here. I recommend my friend's, Kenneth Royce, masterful critique of the Constitution: Hologram of Liberty: The Constitution's Shocking Alliance With Big Government The Anti-federalist Papers were an early warming system. Lysander Spooner warned us very early on. You have been lied to…

In this comprehensive episode of Ready Your Future, Todd reveals how to build a proper vehicle survival kit that goes far beyond the basic jumper cables most drivers keep tucked away.

Effective June 2025, I did a major improved revision on the sound quality for all my WarNotes episodes retroactively thanks to the technology at Podsworth. The banal and humble generator set is a secret to destroying US combat power. I wanted to flesh out a thought experiment on the vulnerabilities of the US war machine in its expeditionary mode in future wars of choice if a critical node of its operations for US efficacy were specifically targeted, in this case, generator sets;. these range from small portable units to large, trailer-mounted systems, including the Tactical Quiet Generator (TQG) and the Advanced Medium Mobile Power Source (AMMPS). In the future near-peer and peer fight, salvo competition will be the preeminent means by which one country will kinetically overwhelm the other in a fight. I discuss the ways in which the West is in an existential hazard of being woefully under-prepared to meet the threat if Western forces go toe to toe with regional hegemons in the East or West. The US is NOT prepared for the war of leakers in which the inadequate missile defense systems and strategy now deployed will be overwhelmed if it enters a war of choice with China or Russia. It isn't simply the peer competitors but the smaller players like North Korea and Yemen are demonstrating that the US and its allies can't cash the checks they boast about. Once again, the US should stand down, reassess, re-calibrate and stop thinking defense is a four letter word.

When people think about prepping, they usually picture food storage, bug out bags, water filters, or maybe a rifle leaning in the corner.
