Great Video.. thanks. We are a couple in our late 60's and we stay active. We live in a covenant protecive community in ColoradoSprings. We ride bikes and hike. We practice our fire arms and are decent shots. We have about 8 months of food we rotate in our everyday lives. Last week we had 2 transformers went out. People immediately went outside asking all kind of questions. No power for 12 hours. Then one lady came out and said my mom has 2 hours left on a medical aid that required electricity. She was really worried then I open my big mouth and said I have a generator . She was appreciative. That opened a PADORA BOX with questions from neighbor's what else does he have in his garage. Bottem line just in the first 3 hours people were panicked. It was a real Eye opening.
Black out curtains. Harbor Freight furniture moving blankets. Thick, will blackout light. Various sizes. Inexpensive, prices range from less than $ 5 to about $ 20 depending on size. These are multi use items. Can be used as blankets or insulating material.
We need to be gardening our own food supply, both perennials fruit and nut trees and berry bushes and annuals garden. Eat healthier, save on groceries, fitness and health from the work on it.

TOP bunkering Mistakes: 1- Talking about it- DON'T. could create bad neighbors. 2- Don't have all Preps done simultaneously, because that raises flags. people ask questions. 3- Have a dog- it's an alarm to action around the premises. 4- If you live in a highly dense area, plan where to go and how to get out. 5- SECURITY is important. stay watchful. dogs can help. Proximity Alarms, sensors. Don't leave your home without someone guarding your possessions. (#Squatters) 6- Have a water source (Find local water sources and put them on a map) (rain catchment systems, wells with hand pumps, etc), transport for water, and ways to treat the water. Questions: use a thick cable to secure guns in cars Security- when renting, etc (Ring Camera system (hackable), and other units. best best is closed loop is better. A light for those who need something easy. Warrior Mini- light and defensive weapon) A good prybar is needed for wrecks and SHTF situations - rally point for SHTF outside of your home. - ON hand cash (EMP will knock banks out), $ will be used as barter tools. Gold/Silver and precious metals are God's currency. 7- Rationing water- make it stretch. 8- Well Kept appearance- but not enough to draw attention to yourself. Green Initiatives could try and regulate your personal gardens. Buy from local farmers. 9- cooking indoors- what place has ventilation. rotate those who cook in and out. Cooking smells. it will attract attention. 10- Light Disipline. light travels. blackout curtains, don't attract attention. (sheets, heavy plastic sheets. 11- Emergency Radio- solar and hand crank combo. 12- Driving- after about 3 days people will panic and move. Don't just drive around in your old truck. 13-Keep heating in a limited area- minimize your fuel usage. rationing firewood. Solar generators can help. 14- NOT helping your neighbors. relationships create allies. Lone Wolf Mentality gets you killed. 15- Communications- At least have an emergency radio with solar and crank. two-way radios (encrypted if possible). Basic level of ringing a Bell. 16- Have a Bug out Plan. Where are you going? who is coming? But you are a glorified refugee.

Every time I here someone use being paranoid as a "bad" thing I think of the saying, "just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you". A little paranoia, in my mind, is a good thing. It's only when it keeps you from trusting anyone that it becomes a bad thing.

Years ago I had a very small dog who alerted us to a break in during the early hours. I now have a different one on my lap and another on the floor by my side. Don’t forget to stock up on food and other supplies for your pets too!
One other advantage to 'black out' shades and curtains is that it helps save on AC and heat. We had a house where the sun would beat in through the windows and the air conditioner could not keep up. After putting them up the problem was solved.
Over a million people without power in Texas after hurricane Beryl. Temps expected to be over 100 the next few days. I would bet that most do not have a backup power source.
That's one problem with solar. There's no way to deploy it while hiding it. And the panels aren't bolted to the roof, they're still easy to steal. And generators of any kind will be heard for quite a distance. Sometimes you just have to hedge your bets.

Consider canning all of your meats. This way you don't have much smell leaving and sleeping people to your food. Also, canning most things requires water, another source when needed.
Thank you - appreciate listening each week!
A thing the Lord showed me to do with freezing meat, is to precook your meat at least half way then freeze it. That shortens the time you have to cook and draw attention to it. God bless everyone!
It is important to know your environment. Water quality and air quality meters could help you stay healthy. EMF meters, barometers and Radiation meters should also be considered. Of coarse a multi band radio receiver should be in everyone's preps, but we cannot rely on broadcasts to provide real-time information. Therefore, we need our own instrumentation. Edited to add: The air quality meter is essential if using a wood stove, or cooking in your fire place.

Resupply: Keep a tote, or cooler, in the vehicle. Use them to haul in perishables quickly. Nonperishable items can stay put and taken in little by little. Can you drive to the back? Garage access?
During lockdowns and a few other times, ive helped non family. I never go overboard in giving. I always take it to them. They never know where i live. I always apolythat i cant do more, that I'm not well off either.
Even the largest pry bar is probably going to be very difficult to get a car door open on an accident scene. perhaps a harbor freight porta power mini hydraulic tool will be helpful. A good cordless sawsall can take a roof off at the posts.
Many prayers to Robbie, his family and friends 🙏 Thank you for all you guys do for the community Please keep up the great work 🇺🇲
I understand OPSEC; however, also think of the opposite side -- intel. If the neighbor knows you have supplies, find out what they have to offer in trade. They're probably not preppers, but do they collect coins or other valuables? What skills do they have? You can find out these things through casual conversation. No one in our neighborhood comes out and says they are preppers, but those who are preppers recognize one another. We know who to work with when SHTF. One of ours has a manual mower, which could come in handy with no power.
Thank you very much for your videos sir!

Consider lawn solar lights that are recharged during daylight and can then be brought into the house for light source. Easy and cheap.
Concerning vehicles resistant to an EMP. If it has a carburetor and doesn't have a computer, it will probably run after an EMP. In addition to older automotive vehicles, think older (pre 2015) ATV's, Utility Vehicles like the John Deere Gator, and riding lawn mowers.
LOL !! Oh yes, we have two terriers! Great alarm and "protection" system for those "bad" delivery people!!! The West Highland is the watch dog and the Scottish Terrier is the "attack" dog!

Because there is not enough space on earth for a bigger fraction of the population or even everyone to not live in a neighborhood. And people prefered to live in a neighborhood instead of alone in the nowhere for tenthousands of years, because it is easier to survive in a neighborhood. I know all this "lone wolf" and "I have a group" preppers don't want to hear it. In a really long term crisis, you will not make it. Mankind organized in bigger groups like tribes for a reason. Also the last "wild" living people don not organize in family-sized groups. And with the better technology/knowledge we have, the groups are ideally bigger. Maybe in the early middle ages, when practically every tool was made of wood, the size of a bigger family (parents, 8 kids helping, grandparents, ...) were enough to work efficiently. But later on, the groups got bigger. Someone had to "mine" for meadow ore, someone had to build and use a racing furnace. Someone had to forge, someone had to build and sustain a well, someone had to repair the building,... If you think you can do this by yourself or a small group ... yes, maybe you can do it today, because there is home depot. In a grid down situation, after the prepped material is used and the substance was harmed by time and usage - you need replacement. You need clothes, shoes, well-prepared wood, medical treatment (plants, surgeons, midwifes,...), you need cooking equipment, buckets, jars, knifes, harvesting equipment, looms, spinning wheels, fertilizer, teachers (no, your wife will not have the time for homeschooling), carpenters, ... You need a big team, otherwise you get inefficient. If you have a surgeon in your group of twenty people. How good will he and his helper be, when their skills are needed the first time after 4 years? Will His equipment be ready or corroded? Do you want to build and sustain a smithy for this group? Mankind succeded because of the division of work and joint working. Family groups extinguished because of Low efficiency.

Put your propane camp stove in front of a fireplace or wood stove and make a hood of something to vent the cooking smells up and out at the highest point to enhance the odds of avoiding detection. Even cook for the day at 3am when most scavenger types won't be out and about.
Always use redundant security systems. 2 dogs, multiple cameras, screaming monkeys, ember demons, etc., etc. ...
Being prepared is a great thing to be! This should be taught in schools simply because the more persons that are prepared, the stronger we all become.

For me, I’ll save the last bullet for myself. SHTF scenarios means Mad Max type living. That’s not living. That’s hell in a handbag.

I have Hospice people coming into my house most every day for my mom. They look and log everything. I know they do. I never let them see any of my preps, they don't need to see how much food or water I have stored. They will not see my lanterns, fuel or batteries. They will not see extra the pet food I have. Also, because they don't understand that you need to be prepping right now. A lot of people still aren't thinking about what to do if SHTF. All they need to do is open their eyes. I gently brought up the subject with our favorite nurse and I could just see that she thought that prepping was an extreme measure. I'm not an extreme prepper but I am prepped to some degree. She looked at me like I was crazy. It's very hard to hide food and water....also, in today's times the things I would normally not care about leaving out I've tried to hide. I don't even want anyone to see if I have a box of cereal on the table. You will not see food out on display in my kitchen. I wish I had a bunker or good root cellar. My home is my bunker for now. I'm not prepped for ten years but I think I can get by until things calm down in a SHTF. Maybe a good six months. Until there is a new normal....no one really knows how that is going to happen...all I know is that if SHTF, I'm not going to be one of those people running to Wal-Mart at the last moment for a bottle of water. I'm going to try to hunker down and let things pass. People think you're crazy if you talk like that, but I'd rather have things and not need them rather than need things and not have them. There is no one for me to fall back on so I have to try to make sure we get through whatever might happen.
How often should you change out your water in the blue barrels?
@tortiecat6459
11 күн бұрын
I've seen videos that say as long as the water was filled with municipal water and/or you added sanitizer to it before sealing the container, it could last for at least 5 years or longer. The key is that it's in one of those food safe blue containers and properly sealed.
If anyone hasn't mentioned it yet, make your residence LOOK like it's been looted already. As for neighbors, take them a freshly harvested feral chicken. Teach them how to dress it and cook it. Even if you have a years' worth of food stashed, if there are community breadlines or soup kitchens, show up and get yours. Try not to smell like food or detergent. GreyMan for the win.
For those that don’t know, what about doing a few videos on- changing a tire, sharpening a blade/different blades with different sharpening methods, changing the small screw that came with your door for 3 inch screws to help keep someone from just blowing your door down like the Big Bad Wolf, cleaning and maintaining firearms, methods for acquisition (for food ammo aid), every day motivation and fitness (why do so many PREPPERTUBERS neglect this?!). These are just a few topics, I know “start your own channel and make that content!!” Yes I could but many of you have been here decades and have put out the exact same content year after year.

Hello Stubbs. I have seen excellent videos on KZread for each of the items that you listed. A little research brings up a wealth of information.
I have questions.1.If you've prepped with a camp stove and propane, how do you store your propane? 2. In grid down, how do you keep prepared food cold? 3. Bleach to water ratio for a 55 gal barrel? A way to get the water out of the barrel...a spout, for water, not oil? In the early stages before people realize that we need community.....You don't want to let anyone smell your cooking, they should also know that you're armed to defend it. 4. I need help getting bullets for my 38 hand gun. The help I need is knowledge. I was going to order them...or try but it involved more than just ordering 38 bullets.( Cabela's) They needed to know the grain and size. I have no idea. The web site needs more knowledge than I have on the subject of bullets. I want to load my gun and shoot if needed...I don't know all the technicalities of the bullets. It's just me and my bedbound mamma here and I've prepped but there are some things I just don't know. A hole in my preps....I need more bullets for my 38....that's all defense I have but I want to do the best I can do.

I suggest a Hornady critical defense hollow point ammunition. I would also buy some round nose bullets for practice. Get a good holster that is not soft nylon and wear the gun in your house unloaded at first. This will get you used to it and you can also safely practice drawing and aiming. The best option is to take some training classes. I would also get a set of electronic earmuffs that you keep close. They will protect your hearing and they have a microphone that you can turn up and hear much better than normal, which is a force multiplier.
Tell me you live in a low humidity area....wet sheets over windows.
What times do you usually go live?
Buy some solar powered yard lights. Bring them in at night.
Even a small dog for first alert
Use headphones for 2 way radios quiet
Cant hack into a VCR... ;)
We are neighbors!
Sometimes we have to ask ourselves, what is normal? I'm trying to get my mom, myself and my GF ready for a crazy time ahead. I have a feeling that if Trump doesn't get back into office, he is going to have a fit, and something might just happen. I hope not, but we shall see. Personally, I'd rather someone else than either candidate win, but that may be highly unlikely to happen. May God help us all. I don't really consider myself conservative or liberal, but somewhere in-between. I may not agree with everything that is being said on Prepper channels, but I agree that we need to be prepared for any kind of situation. Be it natural disaster or a man made disaster, we do need to be prepared for any eventuality.

Be prepared for the panic buying if Trump gives the nod for Putin that he'll accept use of battlefield nukes in Ukraine...

You didn’t give a solution to indoor cooking, so I’m assuming there isn’t one?

Votive candles in muffin tins. Trivet over top. Cook/warm up canned food in saucepan.

@@LogCabinArtist I looked it up online and found references to rubbing alcohol also being a safe indoor fire to use. I had forgotten about the candles in muffin tin solution, too, so thank you!

I bought the vesta heater/cooking device. & the ember off grid oven from my Patriot Supply. The both use. 6 hour canned heat. / the canned heat is less expensive at Sams/ Costco./ also the 1 burner propane camping stoves work well for indoor cooking. Many cooking shows use them in their kitchens. Just a few things to answer your question.

Cook outside : )
Noise attracts unwanted attention
If someone comes to your door (neighbor), wants foos and water and then forces his way into your house, in most states you cannot use force to force that person out. You can't use deadly force unless you are in imminent danger. People need understand legal use of force and its limitations. Get smart on this or possibly end up in jail.
That's where canned goods play an important role instead of cooking
Dogs. Got 3 chihuahuas that think they're pit bulls, a pit bull that thinks she's a chihuahua, and a cat that's just a jerk.
I hate homeowners' associations with a passion. I bought a house in a neighborhood where our neighborhood association has no power to enforce anything. However, 'Karens' will still call the county on you.
Imagine buying a house and then having some Karen fine you, tell you what you can do on your property hell they can even evict you. Not to mention you actually pay to be a part of it. Never in a million years. Hell even if i inherited it i would sell it not a chance in hell i could live like that
Ive commented like 4 times on this one video. Just so many thought prevoking things to comment on. Im a chef. I create fine interesting dishes(think Michelin Star type food) Well anyways. I can always be useful for cooking, butchery, fish mongering. I can cut up and cook just about any creature. But, the point I wanted to make, Is dealing with different peo l le and different personality types. As a chef I have worked with and met thousands of guests, staff, etc. Learning how to deal with people is paramount in these situations. Dealing with aggressive people, passive aggressive, sneaky people, evil people, kind people, smart people, the list goes on. Dealing with people is an important skill. If tou cant get along with a stranger or a neighbor or whatever, then you may not make it very far. Knowing when someone is lying to you or hiding something. When someone is truly genuine or generous or whatever. Learn how to deal with people. Keep your temper under control. Keep your mouth shut. You do not need to be a mouse. Be a lion when you need to be a lion. Be a golden retriever when needed. Never be a snake. But analysis of people is important. Dont take people at face value. Your first feeling is usually correct. Learn how to deal with different personalities and people. This may help you survive in a communal situation.
