Episode 18 Paul Wheaton on Permaculture

July 11, 2014June 23, 2022 James Burnette 10 Comments

Since the Audio was so bad last time we had on Paul Wheaton He stopped back by again. This time the audio is perfect and it only took me two minutes to edit. This time we talk about the following:

How to get started in permaculture, Finding Land, Lemon Tree in Montana?! Staying Cool in the Summer and Hippies. With a few tangents thrown in for good measure. You will get some great ideas on permaculture techniques to get out there and start doing. Getting Paul to share some of the techniques on how to grow the lemon tree were awesome. I have heard him talking about it but never really say how. I tried to pull all the permaculture knowledge from him as possible this time. The conversation turned towards nutrition and cancer at one point which are both big with me. I highly agree that they are connected. I also got to quiz him about making a creek. I had heard this mentioned several times and was happy to ask him directly on how to make a creek using permaculture.

Prepping for NOW – Debt Reduction at all Costs

July 10, 2014July 9, 2014 James Burnette 1 Comment

Today is an excellent guest post about debt elimination. When I was contacted by Gale Newell on submitting an article on debt reduction I was excited to run it. Debt is evil and needs to be destroyed. So enjoy this and get rid of the debt. -James

Prepping is about being self-reliant. It’s about being detached from any and all dependencies. When SHTF the current political and economic systems we currently fall in line with will be gone, or at least much less stable and reliable on an everyday basis. No longer will you be able to leave your home, get in your car, drive to the local supermarket and secure all the foodstuffs on your shopping list. Food and other supplies will be scarcer and much harder to acquire. Life in general will not be as easy as it is now. So what can you do to prep for the future? Start with cutting those strings of dependency. First and foremost, eliminate any and all debts tying you down.

Survival Of The Fit

July 8, 2014April 8, 2015 James Burnette 8 Comments

Today’s post might piss off some of you. Before you go off just thinking, that James guy is a dick, let my words sink in. Im not here to put anyone down, I want to us all to be lifted up. Today I’m talking about weight loss and physical fitness. Especially since healthcare and the Obamacare tax is a hot topic these days. It’s been my main concern in prepping lately. I know many don’t see health and fitness as a prep, and they are dead wrong. Literally. Neglecting a huge facet of survival, one which many others rely on, could be the last mistake you make. Today I’m going to go over some reasons why you might want to shore up this hole in your plan and how to go about doing that.

Spotlight On Spam For Survival

July 7, 2014July 6, 2014 James Burnette 5 Comments

Spam and Survival are synonymous with each other. The image of the tin foil hat wearing survivalist eating spam right from the can pops in many of our heads when talking about this canned meat. It is often frowned upon as a horrible thing to eat. A cruel and unusual punishment. In the words of Crocodile Dundee “Taste like shit but it’ll keep you alive”. Spam has a undeserved reputation in my opinion. Today I’m going to talk all about spam for survival. Why you should include it, how to make it taste even better and why it’s not bad for you either. So let’s get into this spam.
