If you're looking for practical, down to earth, realistic information about #prepping, free of politics, scare tactics, and bullshit, that's kind of my schtick. Amazon - amzn.to/3Z5QU8B Podcast - howtosurvive2025.com #prepper #preppers #survival #shtf

Cool pic my wife took of a pinecone in our fire while we were camping over the weekend.

Hey @LouDPhillips, we saw you with the Pipefitters ages ago at the WI State Fair. You were great, and the harmonica player really blew us away. What was his name and do you know if he's still making music? Please and thanks!

Even after 15 traditionally published books and hundreds of bylines, I still get excited when I see my work out in the wild.

Rule to live by - carry an olive branch, but keep a set of brass knuckles in your hip pocket.

Sending this out to the universe. Seeking a role with a stable company to provide content or editorial support in the outdoor, preparedness, or similar niche. I’ve been the Editor in Chief for 2 national magazines and have contributed ~1,000 articles to a range of publications.

The Clutch is incredible! It fires open with authority, lockup is rock solid, and the blade is keen enough to shave electrons from an atom. It's a collab between Vehement Knives and Defiant7. Find it at DLTTrading.com. #defiant7 #vehementknives #knifereview #edc

Just saw an AI generated post from someone promoting self-reliance. Alanis Morrisette would like a word.

If I said I was listening to an album that featured a shirtless saxophone player, how many would know exactly what song is playing?

Great review here of the revised edition of Prepper’s Home Defense. “Jim Cobb, as I said, is probably my very favorite preparedness author. He’s had an incredibly prolific career, and he is a true expert in the lost art of common sense.” theorganicprepper.com/create… #preppers

Anyone who wishes for a total collapse is either delusional, psychotic, or both. The massive death toll alone should give one pause when it comes to wanting it. Yet, I see people on prepper-centric social media longing for such an event. Talk about Main Character Syndrome....

It isn’t enough to teach children to stand up for themselves. Teach them to stand up for others, especially those who can’t do so themselves. I feel like we’ve become a nation of bystanders, afraid or unwilling to act unless our own safety is threatened. That needs to change.

After careful deliberation, I’ve added a few titles to my Prepper Core Knowledge recommended reading list. Each of these books brings something unique, and I feel essential, to the preparedness home library.

I can't recommend this book highly enough. Laurie Neverman really knocked it out of the park. I consider this to be required reading for anyone interested in #preparedness. And I'd say that even if I hadn't contributed the Foreword.
