All the way back in 2008 I launched this podcast and I wanted a term I could hang my hat on so to say. I wanted something sane sounding and yet I wanted it to be accurate as to preparedness at the same time. Within the first few weeks I came up with the concept of “modern survivalism” and hence, “modern survivalist”. At that time I searched for exact matches of both terms and none came up. So I anchored down on that phrase. Today it is everywhere but I really believe TSP is the genesis of that concept. As … Continue reading →

Today the show notes are very brief, no links, no long story, just an introduction to the show so new folks that find it know what the heck is going on. In 2008 I said for the first time on the air, “you are never gonna pay off all your debt, then call me up and say Jack you are such a jerk, now I have no debt and all this stupid money”. Over the years from time to time I said many versions of this. Eventually people started actually doing it as a joke and it become a thing. … Continue reading →

Today I want to talk to you about low carb living and low carb dieting, and how the two are different things. The recipes today are really mostly for a low carb diet. I personally define diet here in the sense of a transitive verb, ie, what you do when you want to lose weight or improve your health. When we move to low carb living, we then use diet as a noun, meaning simply the food you eat every day. The problem we have in America is diet is generally only used to describe what we do to lose … Continue reading →
