No, Preppers are Not Weird
Let me take a wild guess: at some point you read or heard about the prepping movement, saw some ridiculous opinions of it, came to the conclusion that preppers are weird… and left it at that; you didn’t bother to dig further. Continue reading No, Preppers are Not Weird

My Many Prepping Failures
I have always learned more from my failures than from my successes. Most of the time, real success just blows up your head and you spend more time fighting the ego than enjoying the success. For me the dark deep pits of failure provide me with time to review and calculate why things went so wrong. Of course, you cannot be considered a true failure unless you stop there. I am a stubborn man and whether it takes me 5 years or 5 minutes I rise up from the ashes and turn my failures around. Continue reading My Many Prepping Failures!

Then I started thinking about a new piece of equipment to talk about. To be honest with you I was struggling a bit. Then I decided to flip this thing on its head. Why concern myself with the evils of prepping? Let’s spend some time on the good life that preppers have. Continue reading A Preppers Amenities
5 Year Anniversary
James Walton “I Am Liberty” Audio in player below!
It’s been five years since I first raised the mic and began talking and prepping. I will never forget the moment I realized just how thin the line was between civility and chaos. It was like suddenly being transported to the icy plains of the Midwest in the dead of winter. I was surrounded by two big dogs, a beautiful wife and a newborn child but I felt so alone and it was terrible. In that moment, I knew it was time for one thing and one thing only. HARD WORK. Continue reading 5 Year Anniversary of I Am Liberty

Highlander “Survival & Tech Preps“ Audio in player below!
Earlier shows I’ve talked about how paranoia can be a part of prepping and is it good or not? Well this show is about “Does Prepping Make us Paranoid?” This is a simple question, with a harder answer. Since the term prepper has come about it has been synonymous with paranoid people that cannot think straight. But is this Continue reading Does Prepping Make us Paranoid?
Spring Cleaning
Bob Howkins “APN Report” Audio in player below!
While snow is on the ground in the grips of winter, for me that means spring cleaning.
I confess, I’m a bit of a hoarder. There’s a very fuzzy border between stocking up & stock piling & I tend to lead more to the “pile” side of things. I keep cupboards filled, but I tend to also fill the rest of the house with stuff I don’t really need or worse, neglect to put away. Continue reading Spring Cleaning Those Preps!
The Road Less Traveled!
Host: Noreen “The Homestead Honey Hour”
