Community Disaster Preparedness
James Walton “I Am Liberty ” Audio player below!
For years we have been doing shows about building community and morphing communities into more powerful units to survive disaster. This show is going to be our first look at this topic in a 2 hour forum. I think we will have the ability to explore some of the topics of the past even further and really be able to understand the gems that are hiding in your community all over America.

Cultivation. It is the young plant – the seedling. The thing that we capture in the early stages of growth. We shelter young seeds and frail starts from the harshness of the world just long enough to allow them to grow on their own.
This show covers all the things Dave has by way of Perps and why he has them. He will cover every step of his plan and share the thought process he went through to get to this point in his preparedness. As Dave always says, “Perpping is a process not a destination” and he will explain this as he talks about where he would like to be in the future. This show will dive deep into the Perpper mindset and help beginners and longtime Prepper examine their own situation. Dave will talk about his goals and baby steps everyone can take to get to a higher level of preparedness. 
How does a prepper get better? Some would say it happens through rigorous practice and for those who are very dedicated, maybe that’s an option. For the rest of us, we really don’t have a ton of time to devote to constantly working on skills and procedures. So what is the answer for the 9-5er and the person who is struggling to stay on the highest level of emergency preparedness? Well, it would seem that the growing amount of prepping and survival-based shows can offer some options. 
For many in the prepared world it is basic knowledge or at least presumed that in order to survive we must prepare. How one goes about this preparedness issue is personal to each, some focusing on one particular path at a time but with the ultimate goal to be prepared for what ever comes our way. But are preparedness and will to survive the same thing? 
Oh man did you see that he just pulled a MacGyver that whole thing! What? What did I just say. Yes in fact I said he MacGyver’d something or other. He created the solutions. In today’s colloquial American English lexicon when someone “MacGyvers” a solution to a problem, they find a simple yet elegant solution to something using existing resources. 
In this show we will be talking about being prepared in the workplace. We all prepare to protect our families and I would hope that you all carry supplies and a medical kit in your vehicle. I know some of you carry EDC bags, but what all do you carry in your EDC? Excluding firearms and means of protecting yourself, what all do you carry in your EDC and what all situations are you prepared to handle? For the vast majority of us, we spend as much or more time with our coworkers than we do with our own families. Statistically, we are more likely to encounter an emergency at work than at home. So, what are you doing to be prepared around your coworkers? 
The US witnessed one of the worst hurricane seasons in hundreds of years, and that was on top of the countrywide flooding and storms that inflicted parts of the country into panic. These kinds of weather situations aren’t uncommon and are happening around the world at an increasing rate.
This week on Herbal Prepper Live, we are joined by preparedness expert, Jim Cobb. Jim is a prolific preparedness author, blogger, podcaster, and educator.
This show is on the Art of Vehicle Preparedness. This episode’s Prepper Product Pick of the Week will be awesome as usual, but we also have a super cool surprise coming up this week too. We are going to be giving away a “Sport Duo” firestarter kit from www.livefiregear.com. The kit includes two small metal containers with “firestarter” materials inside of them. They have a sliding lid on top to adjust the flame size, and much more. 
New Year’s Day has come and gone already….. as the New Year arrives and begins there are always thoughts of change, perhaps renewal and growth. Winter in the northern hemisphere at least has always been a time of respite, rest, rejuvenation from the passing year. Our ancestors new this to be the time before great change and so it is that we still connect the New Year with that of changes, celebrated with claims or resolutions. Truth be told resolutions all revolve around a common core.. CHANGE… something is going to change or should. 
With the influx of disasters and attack in 2017 I made the proclamation back in October that it was the year of the prepper. Never before have we been faced with so many major league disasters that touched on so many issues. Just think of the various conversations that are brewing in this nation based on the year 2017. 
The weather outside is frightful but your home and hearth are warm and cozy, that is until the unthinkable happens and you are now the victim of a house fire! The Christmas Season is not a time when our mind necessarily wanders to fire, other than the one in our fireplace adding to the merriment in our homes, but, house fires occur all too frequent during this time of the year.
