Morning news and commentary then Dr. Wlliam B. Forschten (of the One Second After series). He is all about defending our grid against EMP. Could the Pres. Trump Golden Dome proposed in a recent speech to Congress be the cure??

Ethereal Encounters Unveiled welcomes William R. Forstchen, Ph.D Date: March 7th, 2025 Topic: EMP Attacks: What Happens When the Grid Goes Dark? BIO William R. Forstchen is a New York Times bestselling author and a Professor of History at Montreat College in Montreat, North Carolina. He holds a doctoral degree from Purdue University with a specialization in military history and technology. He is the author of more than 50 books. His groundbreaking novel, One Second After, published in 2009, is credited by many with being integral to the start of the “prepper movement” by raising national awareness of the potential threat of an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) strike. He, along with other experts on terrorism and the military situation in the Middle East, also firmly believes that it is time America took serious note of the threats leveled by ISIS: that we are their next target and that it is not a question of if. It is now a question of when. A noted expert historian and public speaker, he has been interviewed on FOX News, C-SPAN and many others on topics ranging from history to technology and cultural issues, space technology development, and security threats.

On this episode of The Prepping Academy, Patrick picks up with a Grid Down Comms Up episode. We begin with a look at the battle rhythm in the first seventy-two hours of the disaster and what that looked like for the people on the outside, who were providing communications support and processing information for those with limited access to reliable information. Next, we look at the fog of war, how that impacted operations from day zero, and how it impacted those in the disaster area, followed by a look at the communications picture inside eastern TN and western NC.   We wrap up with a what-if discussion about how the picture would have looked very different and been much more complex had the Mt Michell amateur radio repeater not been in the picture. This episode illustrates Patick's quote, "Without communication, you are just another person wondering what just happened."  Remember, when the grid goes down, you are on your own, and what you don't know can kill you. Join PrepperNet.Net - https://www.preppernet.netPrepperNet is an organization of like-minded individuals who believe in personal responsibility, individual freedoms and preparing for disasters of all origins.PrepperNet Support the showPlease give us 5 Stars! www.preppingacademy.com Contact us: https://preppingacademy.com/contact/ www.preppernet.net Amazon Store: https://amzn.to/3lheTRTwww.forrestgarvin.com

Paranormal researcher Alex Matsuo joined guest host Rich Berra (email) to explore the darker side of Christmas traditions. For centuries, societies, particularly in pagan traditions, believed that the veil between the living and the spirit world was thinner during this time, with figures like Odin leading the Wild Hunt to collect souls, she explained. This belief in wandering spirits and darker forces inspired tales and traditions, which were later blended into festive storytelling, most notably by Charles Dickens in A Christmas Carol. This juxtaposition of joy and darkness is characteristic of the season, she added.Matsuo shared how personal experiences shaped her exploration of Christmas's darker lore. Following the loss of close family members and grappling with personal grief, she found solace in delving into the macabre aspects of Christmas traditions. She highlighted figures like Krampus and Frau Perchta, who imposed moral lessons through fear, as well as the evolution of these traditions into more playful modern interpretations. This historical curiosity also revealed how pre-Christian practices were often absorbed into Christian festivities, she noted.Matsuo traced the origins of various Christmas figures and their traditions from around the world, emphasizing the Scandinavian roots of many customs. For example, she examined Krampus's role as Saint Nicholas's enforcer, punishing naughty children, and Finland's Joulupukki, a goat-like figure evolved from darker mythological roots into a gift-giving entity akin to Santa Claus. The cultural importance of leaving offerings for these figures is a recurring theme, symbolizing respect and gratitude to mythical guardians, she pointed out.------------------------------------------During the latter half of the program, bestselling author William Forstchen touched on drone sightings in the U.S., and the potential dangers of solar flares and EMPs. He expressed frustration with the bureaucracy's sluggishness in addressing aerial threats, likening it to the inefficiencies of the Department of Motor Vehicles. He noted that clear, decisive action, such as shooting down unverified objects, could provide answers and alleviate public concern. Forstchen critiqued the federal government's response to incidents like the Chinese spy balloon, which traversed the U.S. largely unchallenged.Shifting to EMPs, Forstchen elaborated on the catastrophic consequences of such an event, detailing how it could cripple electrical grids and lead to societal collapse. He explained the mechanics of EMPs and highlighted the vulnerabilities in the U.S. infrastructure, citing outdated components and a lack of preparedness. Using fictional storytelling, such as his book One Second After, he illustrates the devastating effects on water supply, food distribution, and public order.Forstchen also expressed his optimism for private enterprise revolutionizing space exploration and addressing technological gaps. He affirmed that humans landed on the moon, dismissing conspiracy theories as implausible due to the sheer number of people required to sustain such a hoax. Reflecting on the International Space Station (ISS), he discussed the challenges faced by astronauts, particularly those stranded due to unforeseen circumstances, emphasizing the physical toll of prolonged weightlessness. He highlighted the need for robust planning and innovation to tackle both terrestrial and extraterrestrial challenges.Guests

Welcome to the "MAY HAM" episode of the Prepping Academy Podcast! In this episode, we delve into the three communication paths that PrepperNet advocates to help people achieve greater preparedness. These paths are essential for staying connected during emergencies and disasters:1. Shortwave & SDR with Digital & Voice (Receive-Only): Shortwave radio and Software-Defined Radios (SDRs) are crucial for receiving information over long distances. We explore how to leverage these technologies effectively.2. Technician License - Handheld or Mobile (Local Only): Getting a Technician License opens up the world of local communication using handheld or mobile radios. We discuss the importance of this license and how to get started.3. HF Digital, QRP, JS8Call, FLDigi, WinLink: High-Frequency (HF) digital modes like JS8Call, FLDigi, and WinLink, combined with QRP (low power) operations, provide robust communication options. We share insights into using these tools effectively.Join us at PrepperNet.Net and enroll in our Ham Academy to learn more about these communication paths and enhance your preparedness toolkit.

In this episode Mark and Ann discuss the ongoing global clownshow, from people who still don't understand that the real "ISRAEL" that is blessed by God (to put it mildly) is the One, Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church - not an atheist state made up out of whole cloth (a cheap polyester blend) in ARSH 1947. How much longer are we going to let pagans squat on OUR land? Why are there still even pagans at all? We then discuss the attack by Antipope Bergoglio (and Touchme Fagnandez) on authentic, approved REAL Marian Apparitions, with a digression into the plethora of fake apparitions that are littering the scene. The Blessed Virgin Mary can NOT be canceled or memory-holed.  "Grant, we beseech thee, O Almighty God, that we who in our tribulation are yet of good cheer because of thy loving-kindness, may find Thee mighty to save from all dangers." --Collect of the Rogation Links, Reading, and Video: Dr. Mazza's Upcoming Course: Jesus In The Eucharist: A True Revival!
