    Practical Prepping Podcast

     

    Real solutions for real emergencies—no apocalypse required.

    The Practical Prepping Podcast cuts through the noise of extreme doomsday scenarios to focus on what actually matters: simple, actionable steps that help everyday people safeguard their families and lifestyles.

     

    Why Listen?

    • Knowledge Over Gear: “The more you know, the less you have to carry.” We emphasize skills that lighten your load because the right know-how beats an overloaded bug-out bag every time.

    • Family-Friendly Content: Our podcast maintains clean, judgment-free advice that’s appropriate for all ages—prioritizing practicality over paranoia.

    What Sets Us Apart

    Unlike some other preparedness podcasts, we focus on practical readiness for realistic challenges:

    • Weather emergencies like tornadoes, hurricanes, and winter storms
    • Power outages and water disruptions
    • Financial preparedness and debt reduction
    • Family communication plans
    • Everyday carry essentials
    • Food storage and preservation
    • First aid and medical preparedness
    • Much more

Whether you’re just starting your preparedness journey or looking to refine specific skills, our content meets you where you are with clear, actionable advice.

     

    No bunkers. No zombies. No alien invasions. Just practical prepping.

    Practical Prepping Podcast Episode # 212, "Situational Awareness, A Necessary Skill To Use In Everyday Life."
    Please share this episode with friends. Here is the direct link: https://practicalpreppingpodcast.buzzsprout.com

    Do you ever just watch people?

    Maybe you see some of the same problems we have observed. People have their face in their phones and don't pay attention. We've seen them step into traffic, run into poles, and one even fell into a fountain, all because they were not paying attention.

    Situational awareness can be broken down into three components, observation, comprehension, and projection. We explain each one, and how they fit together to help you make good decisions based on good information, and thereby keep your family and yourself safe.

    In this episode, we discuss situational awareness in a number of scenarios. Here's a few we discuss: eating in restaurants, in parking lots, exiting businesses, malls, doctors offices, etc., and returning to your vehicle. We discuss getting gas, Using ATMs, returning home, how to tell and what to do if you are being followed.

    Situational awareness principles apply to daily life as well as SHTF situations.

    Keep your head on a swivel, stay aware of your situation, and make good decisions based on good information.

    Stuff happens. Stay prepared!
