24: The Mad Max Threshold
Disaster preparedness: nobody wants to think about it, but everybody needs to. This week we cover the basics of the federal emergency checklist, discuss the magic of UV disinfection, run through Brad's very robust survival kit, and talk over some options for power outages, food shortages, and even sleeping out of doors.
