Podcasts about Preparedness

When disaster strikes, most people only think about the immediate impact—but what happens next? In this episode of Ready Your Future, we dive deep into strategic prepping by exploring the often-overlooked world of 2nd level effects and 3rd level effects that can turn a manageable situation into a full-blown crisis. Understanding these ripple effects is what separates prepared individuals from those caught off guard when the dominoes start falling. Being a strategic prepper means thinking beyond the obvious. A city-wide flood doesn't just damage your home—it disrupts supply chains, closes businesses, contaminates water, and creates health hazards that compound over days and weeks. This episode walks you through real-world examples, including lessons learned from Hurricane Harvey, to show exactly how emergencies scale and why your preparedness plan needs to account for these cascading consequences. Whether you're just starting your preparedness journey or you're a seasoned prepper looking to level up your planning, this episode provides a framework for 2nd level prepping that will transform how you approach emergency readiness. You'll learn practical methods for mapping out chain reactions, auditing your current preps against deeper scenarios, and developing the "preparedness spidey sense" that helps you see around corners before trouble arrives. Strategic prepping isn't about fear—it's about thinking through problems before they happen so you can live proactively rather than reactively Of Interest Get One Preparedness Tip in Your Email Weekly!

Since 1999, there have been more than 430 school shootings across the nation. Oregon alone has had eight incidents since 2008, according to CNN. With school shootings being a concern for parents, teachers and students, a new industry around school safety has emerged. Estimated to be worth $4 billion, school shooting preparedness and security is projected to continue to grow. From panic buttons and bullet-resistant backpacks to drill simulations and AI gun detection software, the amount of products and services being sold to schools and districts varies wildly. A new HBO documentary, “Thoughts and Prayers,” takes a look at this industry and follows students, teachers and community members during a mass-casualty event drill in Medford, Oregon. Directors Zackary Canepari and Jessica Dimmock join us to share more about the school security industry.

Have you ever stopped to consider that your drive to prepare might not have originated with you at all? For Christian preppers, there's a profound truth hidden in Scripture that most preparedness discussions completely overlook—the reality that God Himself may be the preparedness force behind your calling to get ready. This episode takes you deep into Exodus 35 to examine the first recorded instance of someone being filled with the Spirit, and what that ancient account reveals about your own journey as a prepper. Todd explores the biblical pattern of God equipping specific individuals with skills, wisdom, and understanding to accomplish tasks He's set before them—from Bezalel crafting the tabernacle to Noah building the ark to Joseph preparing Egypt for famine. The connection to modern preparedness is unmistakable, and understanding it changes everything about how you view your role as someone who prepares. If you've ever sensed that your ability to plan, store, and prepare comes more naturally to you than to others around you, this episode offers a perspective that goes far beyond practical skills. For those who have been filled with the spirit to prepare, recognizing the source of that calling brings both purpose and responsibility. This isn't about the zombie apocalypse or dystopian scenarios—it's about faithfully stewarding the abilities God has given you to protect your household and potentially serve others when difficult times arrive.

Advent is a time of hope, joyful expectation, and most importantly, preparation. Amid the noise and busyness of the holiday season, Advent is a season "set apart", inviting us to slow down, reflect, and prepare our hearts.    It is easy to become distracted by lists, schedules, and social obligations, but true preparation begins with a focus on what truly matters: our spiritual lives and relationship with the Lord.    As we journey through the sacred season of Advent, take a few quiet moments each day to turn toward God in prayer. Consider asking him to create within you a pure heart and prepare you for the coming of his son at Christmas.   May this season fill you with renewed hope and true peace as we prepare to welcome the Light of the World into our hearts and homes. 

In this episode, Wade breaks down how "financial sewer backups"—market downturns, emergencies, recessions, and income loss—can blindside families and business owners. He explains why liquidity, cash reserves, and intentional planning are the key to surviving financial crises, protecting your wealth, and finding opportunities when others panic. If you want a practical, no-nonsense guide to building financial resilience and staying secure in uncertain times, this conversation is packed with real-world insight. Episode Highlights 03:01 - Panic and urgency in a crisis. 04:39 - Financial "sewer backup" metaphor. 05:33 - Preparedness in financial adversity. 05:56 - Importance of cash liquidity. 06:38 - Creating financial buffers. 09:57 - Calculating daily expenses and liquidity. 10:27 - Reassessing personal financial security. 11:30 - Building adequate financial reserves. 12:36 - Surviving financial stress events. 13:12 - Opportunities amidst financial crises.

This episode dives deep into the hidden link between anxiety and status obsession, drawing from martial arts culture, personal stories, and a revealing Men's Health article. We explore how fear, aggression, and substance abuse often mask insecurity, especially in sparring environments. Through the lens of martial arts training, stoic philosophy, and 25 years of gym leadership, we offer strategies for facing anxiety with purpose, not ego. From bullying scars to business stress, we show how energy, preparation, and authenticity can transform fear into strength. This is your guide to embracing discomfort, fostering accountability, and rejecting performative masculinity.--------- EPISODE CHAPTERS ---------(0:00:00) - Anxiety and Status Obsession in Men(0:09:49) - Lessons in Accountability and Preparedness(0:17:20) - The Influence of Energy in Training(0:26:22) - Honoring Loved Ones and Business Challenges(0:42:09) - Long-Term Perspective on Member DepartureSend us a text

Send us a textA quiet getaway can turn into a resilience test the moment the power dies. We open with a quick correction on government terminology and fast-moving security headlines, then step into a vivid scenario: a historic mountain resort, roads blocked by stormfall, heat climbing, and generators keeping only a sliver of services alive. Using the 2012 derecho that knocked out power for days as a real-world case study, we unpack what actually helps when you are three and a half hours from home and the grid goes down.I share how years in law enforcement shaped my approach to situational awareness without sliding into paranoia: scan exits, plan routes, and keep a flexible mind. From there, we get practical. What belongs in a travel-ready go bag beyond the usual flashlight and water? Why a satellite communicator like the Garmin InReach Mini 2 can be a lifeline when cell towers fade and hotel Wi‑Fi dies. How to power your essentials with compact battery banks and a small solar charger, plus the little details that save you—redundant cables, waterproof pouches, and charge rotation so the right device is ready at the right time.We also talk OPSEC and ethics. Helping others connect with family reduces panic, but broadcasting that you have rare comms or extra power can make you a magnet. I walk through low-key ways to retrieve gear from valet-only parking, when to move at dawn or dusk, where to stage, and how staff naturally switch from hospitality to safety mode. The goal is to stay calm, contribute without courting risk, and protect your household while being a good neighbor when comfort thins out.If you're a traveler, prepper, or just someone who wants fewer surprises, this conversation gives you a simple checklist and a better mindset for blackouts, heat waves, and blocked roads.

In this episode of Ready Your Future, Todd draws powerful parallels between the Pilgrims' journey and modern preparedness, demonstrating how their story offers crucial lessons for today's preppers facing potential SHTF scenarios. Their experience proves that true preparedness goes far beyond stockpiling supplies—it requires developing practical skills, building strong community bonds, and cultivating the psychological resilience needed to adapt when everything goes wrong. Todd emphasizes how the ability to adapt when plans catastrophically fail mirrors the flexibility modern preppers must develop. The episode reminds us that whether facing religious persecution in 1620 or economic uncertainty today, the principles remain the same: adaptability, community cooperation, and maintaining gratitude even in hardship are the true foundations of survival and the ability to thrive beyond mere existence.

Are you unknowingly making emergency preparedness seem impossible to those around you? Many preppers fall into the trap of overwhelming newcomers with worst-case scenarios and complex systems that discourage rather than empower. This episode challenges you to examine how your approach to prepping might be creating unnecessary barriers for families who simply want to protect their loved ones. In this episode, Todd addresses a critical issue facing the preparedness community: the tendency to overcomplicate what should be straightforward preparation. He exposes how sensationalized content and extreme scenarios dominate the conversation, leaving everyday families paralyzed by the perceived enormity of the task. You'll discover why starting with local, realistic threats creates a foundation that Christian preppers can actually build upon, and how simple steps with food storage and water storage can provide genuine security without requiring massive investments or rural property. This isn't about dumbing down preparedness—it's about making self-reliant living accessible to everyone who needs it. For faithful preppers serious about expanding their circle of prepared families and friends, this episode provides the framework to become an effective ambassador for practical readiness. Todd demonstrates how prepping is easy when you strip away the fearmongering and focus on real-world scenarios that resonate with people's actual experiences. Whether you're mentoring new preppers or refocusing your own efforts, you'll gain the perspective needed to build sustainable preparedness that doesn't burn people out before they even begin.

What if the biggest threat to our survival isn't the next virus, but our failure to learn from the last one? In this episode, Dr. Michael Osterholm, Regents Professor and Director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP) at the University of Minnesota, explains why America's public health system is dangerously underprepared for the next major outbreak. He shares how misinformation and political interference have eroded confidence in science, leaving critical institutions like the CDC and NIH struggling to fulfill their missions. Dr. Osterholm discusses lessons from COVID-19 and why failing to apply them could cost millions of lives in the future.

They discuss Ellis's SPIES framework—Social, Physical, Intellectual, Emotional, and Spiritual—and how these five dimensions strengthen individuals and communities before disaster strikes.The conversation challenges stereotypes of “preppers,” shifting focus toward collaboration, compassion, and civic responsibility. Ellis explains why preparedness is not about fear, but about agency—taking control of your capacity to act and support others. From faith-based readiness to community-driven resilience, this episode is packed with insights for emergency managers, policymakers, and anyone striving to build a stronger, more self-reliant society.Whether you're leading disaster response, training in emergency management, or simply looking to protect your family and neighbors, this episode reminds us that true preparedness isn't about isolation—it's about connection, purpose, and service.You can find Dr. Ellis book here on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Resilient-Citizens-People-Politics-Preparedness/dp/163763448XSEO Keywords: John Scardena | Disaster Tough Podcast | Chris Ellis | The People Perils and Politics of Modern Preparedness | Resilient Citizen | Emergency Management | Preparedness | Resilience | Military Leadership | Nation Building | Community Readiness | Emergency Response | Humanitarian Aid | Disaster Leadership | Crisis Management | Faith and Resilience | SPIES Framework | FEMA | Mount St. Helens | Hurricane Katrina | Japan Earthquake | Resilient Communities | Public Safety | Homeland Security | The Readiness Lab | Doberman Emergency Management

3. Personal Preparedness, Home Safety Design, and Decision-Making During Fire Events. This section focuses on personal preparedness, home safety design, and decision-making during fire events. The highly settled coastal areas of Australia face significant fire risk. The author emphasizes that living safely in fire-prone areas requires constant effort and planning. Houses need to be designed to mitigate risk; for example, homes built on concrete slabs or those with sealed-off underfloor spaces are safer than houses on stumps, as embers can easily get under the house and start a fire. The biggest risk to houses is mostly ember attack. During a serious fire, embers can fall "like red rain." To protect against ground fires, a cleared management zone—ideally 100 meters in rural areas—is recommended around the house. On high fire-risk days, known as Fire Ban Days (which are increasing in frequency), the official policy is to leave early. Staying and defending the home is a major decision that requires thorough preparation. Leaving late is a very dangerous strategy. Wind is a major factor, with hot and dry northerly winds posing a significant danger. Furthermore, large fires can generate their own weather and worsen the wind. Wind changes are particularly risky, as they can suddenly turn a long, thin trail of fire into a massive fire front. In the worst-case scenario—being caught in a car—the advice is to stay in the car, turn off the air conditioner, close windows tightly, keep the engine running, and use a woolen blanket to shield against heat. The primary killer in fires is often radiant heat, not the flames themselves. The woolen blanket acts as a thermal shield. It is also crucial to carry water for drinking to reduce dehydration. 1907 ADELAIDE
