Today I am going to use a variety of projects I am currently planning and implementing here at Nine Mile Farm to teach you about function stacking. Function stacking is a key principle in permaculture but it should really be a key principle in all design. Geoff Lawton says “the more restrictions on a design, the more eloquent the design” and it is always how you see function stacking show up even when designers don’t use the term. A perfect example is all the “tiny house” TV shows and videos. Equally you see it in RVs. As soon as that … Continue reading →

Today I released an older video I found about Brad Lancaster and his water harvesting efforts in Tuscon Arizona. It really got me thinking about the need to build community though abundance. As this was happening I had a guest turn out to be and this is as nice as I can put it, “not right for the show” and hence lost my booked guest for today. So I reached out to fellow Goose Gaggle member and friend of the TSPC community Xavier Hawk about this topic and he was kind enough to join me at the last minute for … Continue reading →

Time for another round table discussion. I have some announcements and some stuff that has just popped up today. I have some really great listener questions and feedback as well. Today on The Survival Podcast we cover permaculture, the great purge, cooking, germinating seed, moving, lawns, a new internet, online videos, guns, mead making and more. Quote of the Day – Agriculture has led to the domestication of human beings, my dog is more wild than I am. ~ Toby Hemenway Feedback on my decision to continue to sell via Amazon – mostly positive Is cooking with olive oil bad … Continue reading →

The topic of the day is by far the recent purging of Parler and their total shut down due to Amazon AWS pulling the plug on their hosting. This was clearly a well coordinated attack with cooperation between Amazon, FaceBook, Twitter, Apple and Google on a competitor. There should be lawyers lining up for racketeering and anti trust actions. That said not only can we not wait for such action to “fix things” we need to see and seize upon the opportunity we now have. This purging is what so many needed to see to understand the true world we … Continue reading →

I am going to talk a bit today about the demonstrations and violence in the capital yesterday. I am also going to talk about why it happened, why it was easy to predict and why we need to all step back before talking about “what really happened” because that is rife with misinformation right now. I will provide you two great videos that break this down. One by Dr. Ron Paul and the second by Derek Broze. As they have done a great job of examining what we know and don’t know and the ramifications of this really bad idea, … Continue reading →

Small livestock are great to have around. They are the best way to produce protein and fat we have. They do this with meat and eggs along with dairy in the case of things like goats. We have talked a lot about this in the past and we will do so again in the future but today I want to start zeroing in on fertility. I am going to tell you about one of our biggest problems leading off today and yet one almost no one even bothers to consider, look at or try to solve. That problem is we … Continue reading →

Most of today’s show is a recreation of 2008’s Christmas special. Today we pause and take a moment to reflect on Christmas and how it has become the Holiday we celebrate today. Many American’s have no idea just how Christmas became unique here in America, the role it played in bringing our nation together after two wars of independence and the civil war. Christmas is special and a time to pause and reflect. Christmas is indeed a special time of year, today I will cover many aspects of it that may make this Christmas just a bit more special. There … Continue reading →

Today to put it bluntly you can either build your own world or live in the one being created by centralized authority for you. There is no third option available. The time to either stand as a free being or kneel as a slave has come, which choice will you make in the coming decade? Every means of control centralized authority uses comes down to one of your 6 primary survival needs. They are food, water, shelter, energy, security and health. To build your own world you must provide these for yourself and obtain what you can’t directly secure from … Continue reading →

The world is accelerating into total insanity and controlling your own life is the only vaccine for the resulting mass hysteria at this point. Last night on Unloose the Goose we discussed mental health, it was a great episode and you should totally check it out if you have not done so already. At one point Xavier Hawk got really deep with why he stays plugged into the news and how unless you understand why people are behaving as they are you are likely to be sucked into their behavior. While I think that cuts two ways, he was making … Continue reading →

The year is almost over and it was one for the books in so many ways. 2020 will always be a memory point for anyone who lived though it while being old enough to understand the basics of what was going on. Of course it is all about “the pandemic” which may be the least lethal pandemic in real deaths in recorded history by the way. It was also a major assclown circus election year and that is still being disputed. I expect to still be in dispute when Biden is no longer in office and off feeding seagulls ice … Continue reading →

A recent video from “Ice Age Farmer” made the case that we will have a dire shortage of soy beans in the coming year, other grains as well especially soy. I checked into it and I have to say for the US market I am not highly concerned. I don’t think the soy boys will need to give up their lattes in 2021. His point was well beyond soy milk and the lot though and to animal feed. I do have to say he is not totally wrong and I expect flat our famine in the 3rd world in the … Continue reading →

I did an episode of Miyagi Mornings this morning and it was on the rumor that Trump would roll out “Burdensome Crypto Wallet Rules“. I covered why that resulted in an almost 3,000 dollar drop in BTC pricing but why it went back up over a few days. I won’t get deep into that today so if you want the full explanation on it, check my video about it here. The key here is Crypto is a technology and there is a massive and multi faceted industry build upon it. What we have seen from the very beginning well over … Continue reading →

Today I was gonna do a show about living free in an age of digital tyranny. I thought about it though as tomorrow is the Thanksgiving Special Show, and then I am out until Monday. It just seems like a good day for an informative, useful and yet totally light hearted show. Well just so happens I was moving stuff around in the freezer today and found a few packs of bullhead catfish which were recently “shucked” and set aside for eating on a cold winter day. I thought “hey you know I have talked about these guys in various … Continue reading →

Historically in America who has been president or your senator, etc has meant very little in reality. What has mattered is how well individuals have designed their lives. The two biggest things that have enabled this for the most people are… Land Ownership (control of real property) Entrepreneurship (control of your own production of value)   In some ways the place we live is so different from the nation Americans of the early 1800s lived in that you’d think they were different worlds. Yet the power of entrepreneurship and land ownership has remained fairly constant. While I don’t expect that … Continue reading →

I ended up skipping two questions yesterday due to being flat worn out and having my voice start to strain after a week of the TSP 20 workshop. Today I am going to use those two bullet points to do a stand alone episode and I think it will work better that way. These two questions were…. Could block chain solve election fraud, and do they even want the fraud solved? Can the great reset be fought, is there anyway to stop it?   The short answers are yes, sort of and no in that order. We will cover the … Continue reading →

Today is an episode of TSP Rewind, commercial free versions of past podcast episodes.

The following are the original show notes from that episode. Does the question, what if everyone did what they most want to do, give you visions of the scary kind of dark T.V. anarchy? Okay so if it does let me ask you a second questions, why? What reason do you have for believing that most people want to go nuts … Continue reading →

Today’s show is from a video I did back in September. At the time good friend asked me a sincere question. It has continued to roll around in my head. This talk by the pond was the result. Thanks to David for such a thought provoking question. The question was simply a version of….

Veteran’s Day landed after the workshop which made for an easy day of content for me today. So it is time yet again for our special Veteran’s Day edition of The Survival Podcast.

This podcast was from a video that was prompted by a lot of misinformation, confusion and frankly some things that were absolutely factually wrong on our ReGen Ag Facebook page. I recorded it all the way back in April of 2018 but it is all still relevant today. The original video version is here, it was before I went keto. God look how fat I was. Here are the questions covered in order. What kind of fish do you use? Have you ever tried implementing non-fish creatures like crayfish or scud? I’d like to see the energy calculations. I have … Continue reading →

Jeremy is a serial entrepreneur, a longtime supporter of decentralized technology and freedom of information, and lives in NH as part of the Free State Project.
