The Balance of Primitive Verses Prepared,Often People worry about being caught out in the wilderness with nothing and needing to use some of the extreme primitive skills to survive.  They ask me about what they should learn in this area and what type of courses to take.For me it’s a balance of where to spend ones limited resources of time and money.  What is it that will get you the furthest down the road to self-reliance as quickly as possible.  This discussion will help you achieve that important balance, out of which the confidence and ability to make it through any situation.Instructor Profile:Jim Phillips is a nationally known speaker and teacher who has professionally taught thousands of classes all across the United States for 40 years.  For a number of years prior to this career, his hobby was teaching cold weather safety & survival.  Jim is a strong advocate of self-reliance living and family preparedness.  He developed an entire preparedness curriculum by asking himself the question "What if?" and then setting out to discover what actually does and does not work.  The answers he seeks (and then teaches) must be based on true principles derived from first hand experience.  Above all else, he believes that attitude and practical knowledge is more critical to survival than having a bunch of "stuff." (“Who you are and what you know is far more important than what you have.”)  Learn More About Jim.

For todays show David interviews Lamar Alexander (of prepper fame, not the former Tennessee Governor.) of Simple Solar Homesteading and author of many books on tiny house living as it relates to being more self-sufficent. When life threw Lamar some lemons, he made more than lemonade, he refined the recipe and then decided to share it with others. What Lamar did, was design and build a small off grid cabin for under $2000.00. He lives there full time, and has learned to thrive off of a simple (but not spartan) lifestyle. Mr. Alexander is quick to point out that he lives a full life, and does not want for anything, has as much free time as he desires, and by developing multiple streams of self-reliant income coupled with a simple lifestyle has managed to save enough to live on for an indefinite period. I really admire Lamar and his work, and have bought some of his books on sustainable living. You can learn more about him and his designs at his website www.simplesolarhomesteading.com/ David Nash Owner of the Shepherd School and author of Understanding the Use of Handguns and the upcoming 52 Projects for a Self Reliant Life

Doctor Prepper interviews Michael Ellan, creator of EMP Shield, a premium-grade enclosure that protects sensitive electronic equipment from Electromagnetic Interferences (EMIs). For more info-including EMP Shield’s Kickstarter, visit Faraday-Cage.com. This is a great interview, primarily because Michael covers (1) several explicit details of EMP threats, and (2) the reality of the US government’s proactive preparation against such threats. He argues that because governments have protected & actively protect their electronic resources, consumers should have access to such proven tools that will protect their communication devices just the same.

TITLE: GMO FREE ARIZONA GUEST: RACHEL LINDEN SUBJECT: Rachel and Tony discuss how 70-90% of processed foods are now made with Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) sources. The viruses and bacteria that go into these GMO seeds and the foods they create are supposedly intended to only affect the pests and weeds that lower crop yields. There is credible independent research that indicates that these GMO foods are greatly contributing to the dramatic rise in cancer and many other illnesses that plague Americans. The long term effects of these GMO processes are woefully under studied in America in contrast to over 60 other developed countries that either mandate labeling or have an outright ban on GMO products. GMO products are likely creating a health care crisis of epic proportions and powerful forces are deliberately thwarting government oversight of the rapidly growing GMO trend that so many other countries are regulating.
