In Episode 440 of the Survival Punk Podcast, we’re pulling back the curtain on a system most folks never question: The Federal Reserve. You work hard for your money — but the Fed controls its value, its supply, and its future. If you want to be truly self-reliant, you need to understand the game you’re caught in — and how to stop playing it their way.

In Episode 439 of the Survival Punk Podcast, we’re tackling one of the most chaotic and fast-moving threats you can face: riots. When tempers flare and crowds turn violent, things spiral fast. And the best prep isn’t a gas mask or body armor — it’s staying the hell out of the way.

In this episode of Grid Down Comms Up on the Prepping Academy, Patrick looks at tactical and team communications and strategic communications in a disaster. Team communications are a simple concept, but become surprisingly complex when users enter the equation. Frequency coordination and interference are a reality of a large-scale disaster scene. We discuss how that impacts operations and how we can avoid some of those issues. Strategic communication is frequently overlooked by the prepping and survival community, usually due to the lone wolf mentality. In a disaster, you aren't going to be the lone wolf; you may even be the voice of your community. Having the skills and tools to quickly and effectively relay the needs of those around you is critical to helping those who are trying to help you. In this episode, we look at some details and facts of communications to support the logistical log train to keep your community going in a disaster.

In Episode 438 of the Survival Punk Podcast, we’re calling out one of the most common traps preppers fall into: turning your stash into a museum. It’s easy to pile up gear, food, tools, and supplies — and then leave them sitting untouched, collecting dust like relics of some imagined collapse. But prepping isn’t about hoarding. It’s about readiness. And if you’re not using your preps, you’re not ready.

In Episode 437 of the Survival Punk Podcast, we’re talking about something that separates smooth, efficient survival from frustration and failure: using the right tool for the job. Whether you’re building, fixing, cooking, or defending — the right tool makes the job faster, safer, and cleaner. But what happens when you don’t have it? That’s where mindset and improvisation take over.

In Episode 213, Dave starts the show discussing the Israeli strikes in Iran. From there he moves to the Netherlands where Party of Freedom leader Geert Wilders blew up the PMs administration and forced elections. Dave then covers a hodge lodge of topics like Trumps court setback and the House passing a recession bill to codify the DOGE savings. He closes the show by providing some of the info that isn’t making it to legacy media regarding the ‘mostly peaceful protests’ out in LA.

In Episode 436 of the Survival Punk Podcast, we’re getting tactical about something that should be obvious but too often isn’t: staying alive by not being stupid. Survival isn’t always about fire-starting or food storage — sometimes it’s just about not putting yourself in danger in the first place

In Episode 435 of the Survival Punk Podcast, we’re stepping back from the gear and grit to talk about something deeper: legacy. Prepping isn’t just about surviving the now — it’s about leaving something behind. Something solid. Something that matters. What you build today can echo into generations — if you do it right.
