Backyard Aquaculture for Food Production – TSP Rewind – Epi-323
2d ago01:23:53Tap to summarizeIn 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… Why bother with aquaculture in the … Continue reading →

3d ago00:42:14Tap to summarizeThis was a fantastic question that came in by email back in 2021 for my podcast but I thought it would be exceptional for a Miyagi Mornings. Here it is exactly as it came in from a long time listener named Dan. “How would a deflationary economy work? ` If our entire economy was based on a currency with a fixed supply like bitcoin, ` 1. What’s the velocity of money look like? 2. How is money lent particularly for large long-term lending. Houses, New Factories, etc. 3. How is economic growth effected/measured. 4. Wouldn’t % economic growth roughly translate … Continue reading →
Transcribe →Perennial Vegetables for your Homestead- TSP Rewind – Epi-321
4d ago01:20:32Tap to summarizeIn this episode from 2017 we turned our focus on food production in our own back yards. The plants I will describe here are wonderful for growing in just about any environment. And even though they are perennials most will do find in containers and wicking beds, etc. Indeed a few are custom made for such applications though normally not grown that way. Perennials are wonderful because they either come back on their own every year or they require very minimal effort to assure their return each year. Many are even considered weeds or a nuisance by the unknowing. Yep … Continue reading →
Transcribe →Gun and Hunting Wisdom of our Fathers – TSP Rewind – Epi-320
1w ago01:31:09Tap to summarizeIn 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 grew up boys hunted … Continue reading →
Transcribe →Understanding Caliber, Millimeter, Gauges & Ballistics – TSP Rewind – Epi-319
1w ago01:21:18Tap to summarizeI did this episode back in 2012 when I stated I wanted to do some more shows on firearms topics I was flooded with emails by new shooters that all basically said some version of this… “Jack can you do a very basics style show that explains what all these calibers and rounds mean. Sometimes when you are talking about a firearms subject I am fine then you start saying something like the 38 special is 35 caliber and I just don’t get it. Or that a 40 S&W is equivalent to a 10mm in a carbine. None of this … Continue reading →
Transcribe →Ben Franklin on Modern Survivalism – TSP Rewind – Epi-318
2w ago00:59:07Tap to summarizeWhen I did this episode back in 22012 ut was because I got a ton of emails on an article called. 8 Personal Finance Lessons from Benjamin Franklin that was published on the very cool blog, The Art of Manliness. Several dozen of you told me that this article sounded like 8 things I say often on TSP. So rather than read the article at all I decided to do the show based just on the 8 tenets of Franklin and see how much in sync we really are or are not. One thing for sure old Ben’s advice seems … Continue reading →

Brad is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of twenty six thrillers, with a career built on taking real world threats, intelligence failures, terrorism, geopolitics and national security blind spots, then turning them into fiction that feels a little too close to tomorrow’s headlines.

Andy McCann gives us the bad and the ugly on GLP1s for weight loss, beyond the hype and magic shot nonsense.

Transcribe →Homesteading, Mars and the Future of Freedom – 3852
2w ago01:59:23Tap to summarizeToday 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 City, a practical homesteading guide based on what actually … Continue reading →

3w ago01:35:25Tap to summarizeThere are two types of people who create content especially in the freedom, liberty and preparedness space. There are those that tell you what you want to be told for the purpose of getting you to listen to them. Some of these people even end up believing their own bullshit. The second type is those who tell you the truth even if it upsets you and makes you want to not listen to them. I try to always be the second kind even when I am telling you things I do not want to be true. For many years I … Continue reading →
