Is your garage so full you can't park in it? Is a basement, spare bedroom, closet—or even a storage unit—packed with things you keep because they might be worth something someday? John Rush is joined by Paula Unger of Neat Freak Solutions and Steve Horvath of Jeno's Auto Service for a practical look at decluttering, organizing, and deciding what actually deserves space in your home. Paula explains why getting organized isn't simply about throwing things away. The real challenge is deciding what to do with sentimental possessions, inherited belongings, clothing, tools, household goods, and all those things we're convinced we'll need “someday.” You'll hear strategies for creating keep, donate, sell, recycle, and trash piles—and why knowing your belongings can help someone else often makes letting go easier. What about Grandma's china, old clothes, medical equipment, leftover hardware, corded power tools, or items that supposedly have resale value? John and Paula explore when something is genuinely worth selling and when the time required to find a buyer costs more than the item is worth. And if you're paying every month for a storage unit you haven't opened in years, this episode may have you asking one uncomfortable question: What exactly are you paying to keep?

Brian of S&B Homestead Radio joins John Rush and co-host Bill Anderson for a practical look at one of the most overlooked parts of preparedness: emergency communications. Brian introduces PACE planning—Primary, Alternate, Contingency, and Emergency—and explains why every family should have multiple ways to communicate when normal systems fail. From inexpensive handheld radios and GMRS neighborhood networks to ham radio, repeaters, predetermined meeting locations, and monitoring local emergency traffic, you'll discover why simply owning a radio isn't enough. Is it charged? Does your family know which frequency to use? Have you ever practiced with it? Brian warns against becoming a "checklist prepper" whose emergency equipment sits unused until the moment it's desperately needed. Then John and Bill expand the lesson beyond communications. Preparedness is a mindset, not a reaction to the latest crisis. Whether it's winter weather, food, water, first aid, finances, generators, communications, or even having your estate affairs in order, the time to prepare is before circumstances force your hand.

On this episode of Fix It Radio, host John Rush and co-host Larry Unger reveal the hidden entry points and overlooked vulnerabilities that could put your property at risk—and share simple, budget-friendly upgrades to keep your home safe. From visible alarm signs and doorbell cameras to clever landscaping, loyal dogs, and smart lighting, John and Larry break down why top-notch security is all about layers—not just pricey gadgets. They spotlight easy-to-miss dangers: exposed wiring, egress windows, sliding glass doors, and especially the garage—a favorite target for intruders. Callers add valuable firsthand ideas, including securing garage-door tracks, considering side-mounted garage door openers, reinforcing the door between the garage and house, and using simple rods or wooden dowels to prevent windows and sliding doors from opening. Another intriguing option is safety and security window film designed to make glass considerably harder to penetrate. Think your neighborhood is too nice or your property too secluded to worry? Think again—John busts these myths and shows how small, smart changes can stop break-ins before they happen. All it takes is a quick walk around your home to spot and fix weak spots—before someone else does.

    How often do car buyers get fooled by a deal that looks just a little too good to pass up? In this episode of https://Drive-Radio.com – The Extra Mile, host John Rush and co-host Luke Cashman take a deep dive into the hidden world of automotive scams—and the costly mistakes that even experienced buyers can make. From fake online listings and cloned auto-parts websites to counterfeit products and payment app fraud, the conversation reveals how scammers exploit urgency, emotion, and the promise of huge savings. Have you ever seen a car priced thousands below market value and wondered why? John explains how scammers copy legitimate listings, mimic trusted websites, and pressure buyers into making quick deposits via platforms like Venmo, Zelle, or Cash App. The discussion also uncovers lesser-known risks: title jumping, salvage titles, mismatched VIN numbers, and the dangers of buying vehicles or parts from out-of-state sellers without proper verification. Even something as simple as installing a used engine or transmission can turn into a financial nightmare when labor costs pile up, and warranties disappear. Why do so many scams succeed? What psychological tricks do scammers use to rush buyers into bad decisions? And what simple checks—like verifying VIN numbers, researching websites, or trusting your gut—could save you thousands of dollars? If you've ever searched for a used car, auto part, or online “deal,” this episode will make you think twice before clicking buy now.
