• Different ways to store water – which are good and which are bad. 
• What supplies you’ll need to store water.
• What are the best sources of water.
• How long stored water is good.
• Which water filtration systems are best.

Some countries are experiencing food shortages and there has been talk we might have some here too.  This would have seemed like crazy talk, except for the fact that we experienced toilet paper shortages just two years ago when that seemed impossible.  In Florida, hurricanes are a possibility and you could find yourself without the ability to shop for food for days or even weeks.  So preparation for these scenarios is just something practical to do.   In this episode, Dr. Nedd covers:

• The differences between food shortages from natural occurrences and those from political and policy causes. 
• The most important factors in doing preparation for a possible food shortage.
• The different ways of storing food for a time you might need it.

It’s hard enough to be a kid these days without having to fight the peer pressure to use drugs.  Drugs that are so much more dangerous and deadly than the drugs their parents might have tried in the 60s and 70s.  How can we help our kids fight the peer pressure, protecting them from the dangers of drugs?  Darren Tessitore found the answer:  the right kind of drug education.  And it is getting results!   In this episode, special guest Darren Tessitore covers:

• What he’s been doing to help educate kids about drugs and how he got around the school barriers that threatened to stop his progress. 
• The truth about vaping that most kids and parents don’t know – you definitely will want to hear this.
• How fentanyl is killing more kids than the street drugs they are found in – and how your kids can avoid this growing danger.
• The new program that will help even more kids and which will pay the people who do the work (rather than them just volunteering their time).
