In this episode, Aaron shares his thoughts on the state of the survival and preparedness community. You see, there's been much to do in recent months about a large downturn in the number of people engaged in being prepared. But there's also been a lot of press about liberals flocking to preparedness out of fear of President Trump.

So what's really going on? Are we in a downturn from a false sense of security or are we in an upturn from a likely false sense of doom?

The answer is... sort of both. But not really either.

We'll explain the State of Survival and Preparedness in 2017:

• How learning to ride a motorcycle is a lot like becoming a prepper
• News of conservatives giving up on being survivalists
• News or liberals becoming survivalists
• Prepping the smart way and keeping your shirt on
• Nav Jim shares the history since the 1960s and questions the future of preparedness (phase plasma rifles and all)
