You are the master of your own life and if you don’t agree with my views, great, define, understand … Continue reading →

Show notes

SPECIAL NOTICE – The intro to this episode may seem a bit “off” as it is a rewind of a rewind. I am stuck in Vegas so this is the best I can do for today and tomorrow.

Show notes

Well the truth is these are 10 life skills we should be teaching every child and many adults who never learned. them. I have done shows like this before but I want to come at it from a slightly different angle today. More along the lines of the process behind the skills. In other words you can teach someone to cook but showing them how a stove and a knife works and giving them recipes. That is basic technique teaching.

On Being a Sovereign Human – TSP Rewind – Epi-308 Jan 21, 2026

Show notes

Sadly a component of the “sovereign citizen movement” have actually ruined the word, “sovereign citizen”. While many in the movement are peaceful and tend to operate via turning the state unto itself via the courts, enough idiots have committed acts of violence under the phrase to widely ruin what it was supposed to mean. However, as so often is the case that which is ruined often leads to that which is better. In this case I think the term “sovereign human” is a much better term. Citizen denotes a state, and a state denotes control. But no matter our state … Continue reading →

Today we are going to talk about one of the primary support planks that need to be in place for real modern survival living. It won’t be about storing food, the right guns, getting defense training or securing your property. All of those are incredibly important and there is a ton more that is important as well.

Show notes

Hat tip to James White who has helped me a lot over the years with techniques and product recommendations for hydroponics and aquatics. James is the guy that told me about Barrina Grow Lights. Since that time I have sold literal 10s of thousands of them.
