Every time the forecast even whispers the word “snow” down here, the grocery store turns into a zombie movie with shopping carts. Milk vanishes. Bread disappears. People act like they’re about to be trapped in the Andes for six months… when the reality is usually a couple days of icy roads and everyone staying home.

In this first installment of a multi-part series, Todd examines Noah the Prepper—the man Scripture identifies as finding favor with God when the rest of humanity had descended into complete moral corruption. For the Christian prepper, understandin...

Housing is broken. Rent is insane. Mortgages are brutal. And because of that, something old is becoming new again: multi-generational living. In this episode, I talk through why more families are stacking back up under one roof, why this isn’t some fringe prepper idea, and how it’s quietly becoming one of the most practical adaptations people are making right now. This isn’t nostalgia or ideology....

Most preppers assume their fire-making capabilities are squared away—a lighter in the drawer, maybe a ferro rod tucked into a bag somewhere. But owning fire-starting tools and actually being able to create fire under pressure are two very different things. When temperatures drop, conditions turn wet, and your hands are shaking, the gap between "I have a fire kit" and "I can reliably make fire" bec...

There’s a lot of gear that looks cool, feels cool to buy, and then quietly sits in a closet for years. In this episode, I’m talking about the stuff that rarely gets used — the gear you bought anyway — and how to think about whether it was a smart purchase or just fantasy prepping. Some of this gear is absolutely worth owning even if you never use it. Other gear should probably be getting a lot mor...

Most preppers have stockpiled food, water, and medical supplies, but far fewer have seriously considered what happens when the cleaning products run out. In a prolonged SHTF scenario, sanitation isn't a convenience—it's the difference between a manageable situation and a cascading health crisis that can take down an entire household. The flu doesn't stop because supply chains have collapsed. Foodb...

It’s 20 degrees, my voice is finally back, and today we’re talking about something that keeps coming up more and more — staying out of the crazy cities. This episode isn’t about doom porn or internet outrage. It’s about pattern recognition, personal safety, and why distance matters. Not emotional distance. Physical distance.

Eating cheap doesn’t mean eating like crap — but a lot of people act like it does. In this episode, I talk through how to eat affordably without wrecking your health, why fast food is a scam now, and how boring, repeatable food choices actually win long term.

What happens when the faithful stay silent while a vocal few reshape the world around them? In this thought-provoking episode, Todd examines a pattern that Christian preppers cannot afford to ignore—how small, loud minorities consistently move culture, policy, and community standards while the majority sits quietly on the sidelines, assuming everything will work out.

You may have stocked your shelves and assembled your gear, but have you honestly assessed where you stand as a prepper heading into 2026? In this candid conversation, Todd sits down with longtime preparedness thought leader Paul Martin to confront an uncomfortable truth facing the preparedness community: too many preppers have grown complacent, mistakenly believing that political outcomes or the a...

This episode isn’t about breaking news or hot takes. By the time you hear this, you already know the headlines. What I care about — and what preppers should care about — is what it means when governments suddenly move fast, decisively, and with coordination.
