Summary: If we ever do face a true long-term disaster that results in the breakdown of the lifestyle we have known it is going to be imperative to be able to get back to the ways of doing things that humans used for thousands of years before Henry Ford and the assembly line. For this reason, you can make yourself extremely valuable to yourself and to others by learning how to do some of these old-fashion methods of meeting life's needs. In this episode I discuss everything from soap-making to learning to sew to canning to hunting and outdoor skills. It's little more than a starting point, but if you are truly interested in learning all you can about how to survive whatever comes, then knowledge is your best investment-and in most cases it's free!
