 Episode-93- TSP Rewind – All About Comfrey the Miracle Plant | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:00:01

Today is an episode of TSP Rewind, commercial free versions of past podcast episodes. Today’s episode was originally and was originally Episode-1371- All About Comfrey the Miracle Plant and was first published on July, 19th, 2014. The following are the original show notes from that episode… Comfrey – A Proven Medicinal Herb, With a Undeserved Bad Reputation. Why do I call comfrey a miracle plant? Well if I said their was one plant that could help heal broken bones, speed wound healing, heal skin ulcers that nothing else could close, provide fertilizer, provide mulch, feed livestock and be as easy to grow as breaking off a piece of a root and sticking it in the dirt, what would you call it? Comfrey does all of these things and frankly more. It also has a very undeserved bad reputation as being toxic if used internally. In fact some over zealous nanny state types even caution against using it externally. I am not really sure if the misinformation about comfrey is simply tea cup protectionism run a muck or an outright slander campaign. And while I can’t advise you to use comfrey internally, because it is illegal for me to do so, what I will say is at times I do and I certainly am not dead or ill from doing so. Even if you plan to never use comfrey internally it is still a plant every person should grow and be familiar with. Its uses are too many to ignore and further it is so easy to grow and propagate there is no reason not to. Join Me Today As I Discuss… What exactly is comfrey Why are we told comfrey is toxic What is wrong with the research done to say it is toxic What are the main comfrey types and what does Bocking mean? How do you propagate comfrey From seed (“wild comfrey” only) From root cuttings, crowns, etc. From tiny cuttings (make a lot fast) Growing out cuttings in containers to multiply results fast How I would propagate lots of roots fast if I wanted to Uses for Comfrey As fodder for cows, chickens, pigs, geese, etc. what you need to know As fertilizer Awesome NPK Ratio 1.8-0.5-5.3 A Dynamic Accumulator of Si, N, Mg, Ca, K & Fe Making Liquid Fertilizer Mulching Leaf Boosting For Medicinal Use On wounds and ulcers On bites and stings On broken bones and sprains On bruises Internally (this is illegal) Making oils and salves Rules for successful comfrey patches Keep it “clean, cut and fed” Grass can and will choke out comfrey You can graze it, best to do when you would have cut it I prefer a distributed model but might do a propagation patch Sources of Comfrey First check around Marsh Creek Farmstead Coe’s Comfrey Nantahala Farm Horizon Herbs – They have many comfrey options just use the search function.

 Episode-92- TSP Rewind – Brandon Sheard the Farmstead Meatsmith on Curing Meats | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:00:01

Today is an episode of TSP Rewind, commercial free versions of past podcast episodes. Today’s episode was originally and was originally Episode-1253- Brandon Sheard the Farmstead Meatsmith on Curing Meats and was first published on Nov. 21st, 2013. The following are the original show notes from that episode… Brandon Sheard came into traditional slaughter, butchery and curing right after finishing his graduate work in Renaissance English Literature. After marrying Lauren, he quit his job at Whole Foods in the supplement department and started work on a small, multi-species and pasture-based farm on Vashon Island. After two years of working on the farm and managing the butcher shop, Brandon left and started Farmstead Meatsmith with Lauren. Largely self-taught in the art of traditional animal harvesting, Brandon and Lauren continue to provide the services of livestock processing and classes through Farmstead Meatsmith with a little help from 4 year-old Wallace, 2 year-old John Luke and 6 month-old Simon. Their home and business is on Vashon Island, Washington and they join us today to discuss Fermented/Cured Meats.  I first heard of Brandon from our good friend and expert council member Paul Wheaton of Permies.com. Brandon comes with Paul’s highest recommendation. Join Us Today As We Discuss… What is curing? How does the traditional approach differ from the conventional approach? How has Bacon been commodified How does what you do on slaughter-day affect what you can do with meat when you cure it How will cured meats influence your kitchen How has modern practices of butchery influenced grass-fed beef in our country Why is most grass-fed beef trimmed of its fat What are some resources to help people regain a traditional approach? What is charcuterie How do you make a ham What should you do with venison Resources for today’s show… Join Our Forum Walking To Freedom Anatomy of Thrift – Brandon’s Videos The Farmstead Meatsmith – Brandon’s Website Remember to comment, chime in and tell us your thoughts, this podcast is one man’s opinion, not a lecture or sermon.

 Episode-91- TSP Rewind – Reaching the Unreachable | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:00:01

Today is an episode of TSP Rewind, commercial free versions of past podcast episodes. Today’s episode was originally and was originally Episode-648- Reaching the Unreachable and was first published on April 21st, 2011 . The following are the original show notes from that episode. Every day I get emails from people that say my ______ just doesn’t get it. I have tried explaining _____ and ______ and ______ and they still don’t think there is any reason to have a preparedness plan. What else can I say to reach them. Now it is easy to write off people, call them sheeple (as most are), etc until they are someone we love and care about. The problem though can be summed up in the quote, “a profit has no honor in his own country”. Many of the people closest to you will be some of the last people to listen to you. Today’s show will hopefully speak on your behalf, it may be something you can provide to the “unreachable” or at least the moderately resistant. Unlike many in the “survival” niche I do not believe that you reach people with fear, gloom and doom but with empowerment. So while today’s show may be like preaching to the choir for a lot of the audience I think you will enjoy it as well. In the end I hope it also gives you a tool for reaching others. A version with the housekeeping removed will be provided in the show notes as well. (Get it Here) Join me today as we discuss… Prepping is a normal activity Not prepping is an abnormal activity (10,000 years proves it) Food and water are our most fundamental needs There are real threats to our on demand lifestyle Prepping isn’t “running away” it is the exact opposite Smart prepping has no downside There is no real sacrifice required (long term) The rewards are liberty and freedom It will improve your physical health It will improve your mental health Getting started is very easy and cheap It eventually becomes a lifestyle It is NOT a political issue, prepping isn’t republican or democrat Belief in conspiracy theories isn’t required or even useful The primary rule is to do what YOU think is best Additional Resources for Today’s Show Members Support Brigade Get the Commercial Free Version of Today’s Show Remember to comment, chime in and tell us your thoughts, this podcast is one man’s opinion, not a lecture or sermon.

 Episode-90- TSP Rewind – There is No Downside to the Survival Lifestyle | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:00:01

Today is an episode of TSP Rewind, commercial free versions of past podcast episodes. Today’s episode was originally Episode-123- There is No Downside to the Survival Lifestyle and was originally and was first published on Jan. 15th, 2009. The following are the original show notes from that episode. Today we examine some misconceptions about what survivalism is, how survivalists prepare and what actually being a survival minded person is all about. The media paints us all as camouflage fatigue wearing, war game playing, gun nuts that live in bunkers full or rice, beans and MREs. Nothing could be further from the truth… Tune in today to hear… How you save money as a survivalist vs. blowing your life savings on MREs and Guns Why storing food will make you sleep better at night and not cost you a penny more then you will spend on food anyway, if you follow the mantra, eat what you store and store what you eat How being prepared helps you live a longer, healthier stress free life Why you are better off as a prepper even if nothing ever happens and something always happens sooner or later Why prepping and survivalism is for everyone but modern media hype turns off so many The reality that the good guy doesn’t always win and what it means to you How realizing your own mortality leads people into practical common sense survivalism How businesses save money with capital deferrals and so can you Why stored food often out performs many investments Yes guns are a great investment (no guys you can’t now use this excuse to buy every gun you want, don’t tell you wife I said that) More in developing independence from multiple systems What we can learn about prepping from failures by dieters Why silver and gold are good long term insurance policies that have no down side The greatest survival investment is knowledge and skills Remember to comment, chime in and tell us your thoughts, this podcast is one man’s opinion, not a lecture or sermon.

 Episode-2320- Ten Basic Preparedness Questions Answered | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:00:01

I feel we need to do more fundamentals shows than we have been doing lately.  I almost called them beginner shows but I don’t feel that is really what they are.  While great for beginners fundamentals are for everyone. Back when I played various sports, even when I got to an advanced level we often worked on the same fundamentals we all had started with say 10 years earlier.  There is a reason, in any discipline when your fundamentals are solid everything you add to them improves things.  Yet, when those fundamentals are weak the opposite happens, everything you makes things work. So today I am going to answer ten basic questions on getting prepared.  Should be a great show for old and new listeners alike and a great one to share with friends and family… Join me today as I answer… What are the top 5 most likely disasters a person would be likely to experience Job Loss Serious or Terminal Illness or Injury (ie auto accident, phyical assault) Storm Damage (wind, water, ice, etc) Fire (local area, wide spread or just your house) Specific local threats (riots, volcano, earthquakes, etc.) What are the top 5 first things to get into your preparedness plan A documentation and plan kit A basic black out kit A basic bug out kit An emergency cash fund 30 days of basic food, water and needs What is the easiest way to get to a 30 day supply of reserve food Keep a food journal Eat what you store and store what you eat Practice basic inventory control and stock rotation What are the 6 best life skills for the self reliant life style Cooking Basic “Handyman Skills” (carpentry, auto mechanics, etc.) Situational Awareness Basic First Aid Self Defense Financial Management and Discipline What about really big “Hollywood Disasters” – Pandemic, Global Collapse, etc. What role does growing your own food play in preparedness, is it necessary If you are going to carry a gun, what gun should you carry and why What is the role of EDC in preparedness and what should you carry in an EDC kit What is the biggest thing most prepper types overlook in their planning What is the single biggest determining factor of survival in most situations   Resources for today’s show… Follow Life With Jack on Instagram TSP Facebook Group On this Day in 1735 John Adams was Born Join the Members Brigade Join Our Forum Walking To Freedom TspAz.com The Granddaddy’s Gun Club Bullhead Fishing Forum – A new little site I started Binance.com Biltong for Breakfast Find Your TSP Facebook Group for Your State Hey Stoopid – Alice Cooper   Sponsors of the Day Western Botanicals Ready Made Resources   Remember to comment, chime in and tell us your thoughts, this podcast is one man’s opinion, not a lecture or sermon.

 Episode-2315- Why Lifestyle Design is For Everyone | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:00:01

Today we discuss the concept of lifestyle design, which has been a core piece of TSP since the very first days of our journey.  Many credit author and entrepreneur Tim Ferris with this concept.  I love Tim and have followed his work for years.  There is no doubt that he is a big part of the movement today, but he simply made people aware of the concept.  The concept itself is as old as civilization. There have always been people who have lived differently then others, more disciplined and with a plan for their life.  For instance the 1926 classic “The Richest Man in Babylon” is form of lifestyle design focused on specifically financial aspects of your life.  That said when one institutes financial discipline, they end up doing well designing the rest of their lives as well.  As Dave Ramsey says, “people that win with money, win at life”.  I don’t 100% agree with Dave but he has that one nailed down tight. Today we Take a Look at How Lifestyle Design Leads to Personal Liberty… How can people best understand what lifestyle design is all about Why I say that your life is being designed, the question is only by whom What role does lifestyle design play in the world of preparedness Do you have to be an entrepreneur to practice lifestyle design So what role does entrepreneurship and side hustle play in lifestyle design Why you have to design in recreation and family time, etc. How your view of “retirement” changes when you practice lifestyle design How can you get children thinking about life style design when they are still young Are goals more important than plans or is it the other way around, or are they equal How do we program our “mental computer” and why is it so important to understand that Resources for today’s show… Join the Members Brigade Join Our Forum On this Day in 1983 – USMC Barracks in Beirut were Blown Up Walking To Freedom Find Your TSP Facebook Group for Your State TspAz.com The Granddaddy’s Gun Club Bullhead Fishing Forum – A new little site I started Binance.com Biltong for Breakfast Love Like Crazy – Lee Brice Sponsors of the Day Ridge Wallet J.M.
