Is the power company ripping you off? part 6 18.02.2024 11:06
Living Off the Grid in the City Radio Show. Your power company is set up to make a profit, expand, and produce ever-more energy.

05 Further ills of the grid (legacy show) 27.01.2024 24:00

Worst state to own an electric vehicle: Georgia 17.01.2024 5:32
Living Off the Grid in the City Radio Show. In addition to the traditional $20 vehicle registration fee; the backward state of Georgia charges electric vehicle owners a whopping $212.78. This has been in effect since 2015, and the current additional fees are ‘automatically adjusted’ according to a ‘statutory formula’ applicable to vehicles registered on or after July 1, 2019. This appears to mean...

Living Off the Grid in the City Podcast. 2-05. Here, I continue to share my personal experiences with the electric companies in the US. And, experiences that solidified by belief that electric companies don't care and act as ruthless overlords. This relationship is one of servitude and manipulation.

03 Compulsory electrical service - part 3 14.01.2024 17:18
Living Off the Grid in the City Podcast. The electric company is corrupt with power. They treat customers exactly as what they are; choiceless servants that must have a connection and pay. In this relationship, abuse and manipulation is naturally expected. In this first section of part 3, I discuss other's personal experiences with their power companies, as well as my own experiences and abuses wi...

02 Compulsory electric service - part 2 05.01.2024 8:07
Living Off the Grid in the City Podcast 2-02. Electric service companies charge brazen fees, recoup construction losses by rasing rates, and are allowed to make a profit off their customers. All these while they are given free reign as monopolies by your government and by obedient utility commissioners.

01 Compulsory electric service - part 1 01.01.2024 8:00
Podcast 2-1. The electric company is abusive in many ways, first and most notably is the high percentage of one's income that it charges from the poor and working classes. It imposes ridiculous fees and taxes with its already high rates, and it charges, rich and poor, the same rates for energy. These abuses cause that those of low-to-medium incomes; pay majority of the power company's profits and...
Stupid things we do: Cars! part 2 28.12.2023 10:20
Continued chat on how cars are a stupid idea and how they have brought mostly injury, death and destruction. Transportation should be much more efficient and safer, yet we have chosen to go the dumbest, least efficient, and most expensive route.
Stupid things we do: Cars! part 1 21.12.2023 7:30
Living Off the Grid in the City Radio Show. We have put emotional, distracted, and dumb hairless apes behind the wheel of very fast, heavy, and hard-to-control vehicles that require consistent good judgement, fast sensory reaction, and rational decision-making; and yet those apes wonder how and why tens of thousands of people die on the roads worldwide.

Electric Vehicles: Do they make sense? part 2 21.12.2023 12:25
Living Off the Grid in the City Radio Show. Electric Vehicles are expensive, don't help you quit the coal industry, and create a carbon footprint, but they do help you get off the petroleum industry. Buying a new EV in late 2023 or early 2024 may contribute to continued high inflation and keep finance rates high. This only helps the wealthy and bankers.

Electric Vehicles: Do they make sense? part 1 21.12.2023 6:25
Living Off the Grid in the City Radio Show. Discussion 1 of 2 on how EVs may contribute to your decarbonization efforts, but only if you really "need" a vehicle, and you are "not" purchasing it to replace an older and paid-for and fuel-efficient ICE. It may not make sense to purchase a new EV if it will put you in financial strain, to where you will have to work excessively. Remember all new vehic...
16 Avert compulsory lifestyles - Section 3 introduction 09.12.2023 10:09
Living Off the Grid in the City Podcast 16. What we consider to be obligations are often things we are taught to think of as mandatory. Paying for anything, especially necessities should not be mandatory. This robs us of our rights to exist and categorizes these rights as privileges to those that can pay. Living off the grid helps you become aware of this and empowers you to live truly free. Hecto...
Tiny homes: Do they make sense? 08.12.2023 18:22
Living Off the Grid in the City Radio Show. Tiny homes can be very beneficial to many people, but they do have their disadvantages too.

04 Decentralization of power (Legacy show) 26.11.2023 25:31
Among the most important reasons to get off the electrical grid is to begin to decentralize electric power production. This can bring unimaginable advances in quality of life, independence, and efficiency. We have been mostly denied our ability to harness and produce our own energy, and this is by design.
