The Fight for Food Independence – Epi-3875

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/07/29

Today we are joined by David Stelzer to discuss the story of Azure Standard and what it takes to build real food resilience in an age of fragile supply chains, declining soil health and centralized food distribution. We will look at how one family walked away from conventional farming practices long before organic food became popular, and how the challenges they faced led to the creation of one of the largest independent organic food networks in America. We will also dig into the problems within the

Self Defense as a System with Joel Ryals – Epi-3856

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/06/17

Today, Joel Ryals returns to TSPC to discuss why self defense is a system, not just a tool. Too many people buy a gun, carry a knife, take a class, get a dog, or bolt some security hardware to the house and think they are “covered.” They are not. Tools matter, training matters, dogs can absolutely matter, but none of them replace awareness, judgment, mindset, and the ability to make decisions when things go sideways fast. Violence is not clean, fair, predictable, or bound by the rules people imagine

Books, Bitcoin, Biochar and Bullshit – Epi-3855

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/06/16

I am finally back from vacation and we had a great time. I am sure I will tell you at least a bit about it today but we are going to focus first on my new book dropping and some news and current events. This will include what no one will say but needs saying about the Karmelo Anthony case. We will talk about 2nd order consequences in supply chains specifically in the timber/pulp niche involving biochar. Oh and are you ready for a 22% cut in social security just 8 years from now. I’ll tell you

Backyard Aquaculture for Food Production – TSP Rewind...

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/06/11

In this episode from 2018 I talked about how few things on my property give me more enjoyment than my various garden ponds. There is something peaceful about moving water and fish. The bonus is if we want fish tacos tonight and didn’t take any out of the freezer, with 4 bread balls and 5 minutes I can have us 4 nice pan fish for cooking. Aquaculture is function stacking in the best way. You get a beautiful piece of landscaping, wildlife habitat and free food as a bonus. Join Me Today to Discuss…

Gun and Hunting Wisdom of our Fathers – TSP Rewind –...

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/06/04

In this episode from 2015 we talked about guns today, but a bit differently then you might expect from a “survival podcast” to do. No ARs, no concealed carry and no ninja like accessories. No today I want to tell you about the gun wisdom I learned at the hands of my grandfather and father as a young man. The stories, lessons and realities that made me love guns as the tools they truly are. You may be shocked to learn I didn’t grow up hearing much about the 2nd amendment or gun rights. Where I

Homesteading, Mars and the Future of Freedom – 3852

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/05/27

Today we are joined by Travis J. I. Corcoran to talk about what it really takes to build a life, a homestead, or even a full settlement when there is no big system coming to save you. This is about food, repair, local production, trade, family, community and the real limits that show up when theory runs face first into reality. Travis and his wife walked away from lucrative tech careers in Massachusetts and built a more self reliant life in New Hampshire. That experience led him to write Escape the

Permaculture for the Long Emergency – Epi-3849

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/05/20

Today we are joined by Daniel Halsey to discuss what real collapse preparation looks like when you move past the fantasy version. This is not about knives, guns, bug out bags, or trapping rabbits. It is about the social side of long term disruption, the bad assumptions people carry into community living, and what actually has to be designed before people can thrive through hard times instead of just surviving the first wave of them. Daniel has spent about 20 years as a permaculture and ecological

Today on The Survival Podcast the expert council covers a wide range of real world topics. We kick things off with Joel Ryals on getting obedience from your dog the first time, every time, without turning your relationship into a constant battle. Jesse Markowitz then digs into whether Start9 actually makes sense for data storage and remote access, or if it is just another shiny tech toy for privacy nerds. Matthew Sercely follows that up with a hard look at whether social media “experts” pitching

Critical Thinking and Issue Analysis – TSP Rewind –...

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/04/23

Today I want to discuss the concept of critical thinking and how we are often led by those in power. How many “issues” are presented to divide us yet they really shouldn’t. Most if actually examined critically would result in people either realizing the issue doesn’t matter and nothing should be done, or in general agreeing on the solution. Those in charge can’t have this, a people divided are easily led, in fact a divided people given their consent to being controlled, having liberty taken and

Understanding Money Part One – Epi-3833

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/04/14

My hope today is to help you understand money from as many new perspectives as possible. If you think about it nothing in general has a greater effect on the lives of most Americans than money. Money is why we work, how we provide our housing and food, how we are taxed and how our class structure is defined. We can deny this if we choose to but a family with a gross income of 100,000 dollars a year lives a much more comfortable life than one with a gross income of say 25,000 a year. Yet if you

Welcome to another week and this time we lead off on a Monday by taking a look at some of the both big and lesser known news stories that have happened over the weekend. We will lead off with Trump new seemingly crazy plan to block the Strait of Hormuz after demand Iran open it. Is this an unhinged Orangeman thing or is there actually a strategy behind it? Next we dig into an article about China making massive strides in AI and why current US policy is helpless in slowing it down by preventing the

Understanding Disease Resistant Vegetable Varieties –...

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/04/07

The typical story about disease and vegetables is something like this from the all natural crowd…. Just use compost and good organic fertility, build good soil and it won’t be a problem. Yea, um, about that, look good soil, good fertility and abundant soil life and minerals go a long way to healthy plants, but they don’t eliminate all diseases. They also take time to develop in your garden soil. Some years my beans develop a fungus referred to as rust. Why? It is typical when it is wetter then

Personal Sovereignty is AI’s Killer App – Epi-3828

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/04/06

Everyone is looking for the ‘Killer App’ for AI. They want the one plugin or the one prompt that changes everything. They’re looking in the wrong place. AI is a mirror, it is a leverage tool, it’s a management flight simulator and a leadership training program all in one. If you can’t lead a machine that has no ego and works for free, you aren’t ready to lead anything else. The real Killer App of AI? It’s Personal Sovereignty. It is a way for every human to have personal agency or more

When Your Homestead Owns You with Kerry Brown – Epi-3826

The Survival Podcast ·

2026/04/01

Today Expert Council member Kerry Brown joins us to discuss what it really means to build systems that actually support your life instead of quietly draining it. Kerry is a fourth generation land steward out of Tennessee who is not playing hobby farm. He is restoring family land, applying permaculture principles, and building something that works in the real world, not just on paper or social media. What we dig into today is where most people get this wrong. They confuse activity with progress. They

This show is of course The Survival Podcast. So often when people first find it they are expecting only topics like storing and growing food, building bug out bags, guns and perhaps planing for the end of the world. The reality is we have talked about plenty of things like that, but. great deal more as well. We discuss diet and health. We discuss entrepreneurship and lifestyle design. We discuss news and world events from a critical thinking angle. And we discuss economics, technology impacts
