I never finish anything, I have a black belt in partial arts.
Brilliant! I hope I can remember to steal this from you at some appropriate future time. 😊
@@nmr6988 Why not take it, I got it off of UA-cam.
@@thomastrieschmann2682 thank you, that is very generous of you!
I'm not sure if you have ever mentioned this, but a lot of places have CSAs (Community Supported Agriculture) You can setup with them and have fresh produce delivered weekly. If there is a shortage at the grocery stores then these will continue to provide produce to you even when the grocery stores are out. Something to consider.
Lol. Indeed. But watch out for the Leftists/Marxists.
They Don't Care About You because they're Vile People!!
Get yourself an older vehicle with points and condensers without a computer, preferably a stick shift. As long as you can get some gas, you'll be able to keep rolling. But beware, someone will want what you have!
I'll add if you get an older vehicle. upgrade the engine seals and hoses to take ethanol fuel, as it's a fuel source that can be made at home with a bit of homework.
Thank you both for all you do. You guys are so upbeat, positive, and friendly; watching the videos is such a positive experience for me and I've learned so much. I feel like you both are my friends. God bless.
People should go directly to the farmers to buy their beef 🥩... cow 🐄 sharing🤔
In an emergency, you need to keep yourself clean. Retain you plastic bottles to save water for washing up. Milk bottles are not reusable for drinking water but water for washing... Also bottles for cleaning supplies, bleach, vinegar, etc.
Let's face it, you may hate Spam but if you are really really hungry it is something to eat. Same with beans and rice.
I’m a 3500 acre corn and soybean farmer in north central Indiana. Corn used in ethanol production is still used to produce food. All ethanol has a by product called dry distillers grain which is a high protein feed for cows and hogs. I feed them to my cows and they fatten up well!
If you don't prep for any emergencies, you will be the first ones to suffer.
Solar YES! It they also make residential size wind turbine and if you access to running water on your property I would suggest hydroelectric turbines… they small mini versions that can meet your personal needs!
Stock up on spices and things like bullion chicken/beef/vegetable so that you have things to add to or dress up those beans and rice… make them much more palatable for longer periods of time!!
When we fill a 30 gl barrel with rice, beans, and freeze dried (in home produced) food and meats…I toss in a vacuum sealed package of standard spices.
When it comes to game meat. Here in the UK, probably less than 1% of people like myself have the weaponry (Hunting bow or Rifle) to be able to hunt big & small game, so I believe hunting as an option would be much more sustainable, which is why I'm learning hunting skills & knowledge.
There is not enough big wild game to feed the general public.
@@McRod-1 maybe not in the US as at least 50% of the population has guns so big game would be wiped out much much faster. But in the UK however, the culture is different. Guns, Crossbows, Hunting Bows are hugely frowned upon, so much less that 1% of us have them. So only a miniscule percentage of us in the UK have the firepower capable to hunt big game, so the big game population will most likely be better off. Most people in the UK still think food comes from the supermarket.
Deer especially are overpopulated in the UK because they currently have no predators.
Betcha Can’t Eat Just One” is one of the most well-known slogans/catchphrases. For those of you who don’t know it’s referencing Lay’s potato chips, saying that they are so tasty you can’t eat just one
Open your canned food and freeze dry it if possible. It will last forever almost and will free up space for more canned goods. Keep cans for drinking, making stoves, etc.
It was Lay's potato chips...
"So good, no one can eat just one."
Boomer, I think it was "Betcha can't eat just one."
Pringles???
As far as store bought eggs I've heard you can keep them long term in a cool area by simply coating the shell in vegetable oil,though I've never tried this
Look up water glassing eggs
I am surprised by the lack of discussion about skilled manual labor and the tools required on so many prepping channels.
How about interviewing some back yard smiths, leather workers, gardeners, small animal keepers, weavers, tanners, rope makers, and all those skills required to keep a village alive?
Or if anyone can point me to the channels that do these things. My wife and I garden, preserve food, have planted fruit bushes, canes, vines and trees. We shoot and I reload. She crochets, has done some weaving and rug braiding. I've done a little brick work, but am no where near skilled.
Orchards, gardens, nut trees including acorns, rhubarb can be found wild and grows without cultivating, tap maple syrup, honey can be found wild or you can have hives. Lots of things if you spend time thinking about it.
I was actually just talking to my wife about the chestnuts in Tennessee. It’s definitely something that needs to be regrown. They also need to grow more pawpaw trees.
Here in Southern California the number 1 is water. Cannot have enough stored water.
Next is food, but that’s easy. Auxiliary power is next, then firearms.
Water is and will always be my #1 priority. I live in Arizona. No well and no physical connections to any public utilities - they aren't even available as an option. I raise my own livestock and grow my own crops.
Same here in So Cal
Spices have a really short shelf life. I use different salts as they will change the flavor of anything and have a longer shelf life. Red Hawaiian, French Flake salt.
I have home security cameras by Merkury/Geeni. Very good and reliable for the price point. I have had 8 of these cameras set up in and around my home for the last 4 years. They perform great and all are still working. You can access remotely as well with your cell phone.
I will be buying security cameras for my 92-year-old mother-in-law's home. Some will be in full view and others will be hidden. I can't believe she doesn't have any already! But once I get there I'll fix that for her.
I have a dash cam hidden in my vehicle facing the interior. Great for recording break ins, but if they actually steal the vehicle, you're most likely out of luck unless you get lucky and it's recovered without the camera being discovered.
Depends on the country. Recently a guy broke into a home in Germany and was recorded by an outside camera. Robber got free because he had a "troubled childhood" homeover got sued because he violated the "right of the personal picture" of the robber and had to pay the robber 10k.
MY PROBLEM IS THAT CANED FOOD HAS A LOT OF SODIUM IN IT! I AM ON A LOW SODIUM DIET!
While water is available, I've heard you can rinse well and/or soak to remove a lot of salt in the product, as in when you are rotating your food. When water (and food) gets scarce, you can save the higher sodium water that is in the can with the food to season and hydrate other unseasoned foods.
No Salt Added stuff. And sardines in olive oil
Old man river, there is lots and lots of no salt added stuff on the shelves right now.
Now there are many more options with no salt. If you don’t see it in the store, go to their on line store, may be more offered that way. For the higher sodium ones, I rinse them off in a strainer, even tuna fish. The mesh strainers are good for that, got mine from the dollar store.
Me too. Get: no sodium/low sodium tuna, canned beans, canned veggies, protein waters, protein waters and canned fruit
Food, in the words of Gus McRae, "It's better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it"
Much appreciate the weekly encouragement you guys provide. Keeps me motivated and I learn a lot. Thoughts on a solar stove and maybe be a part of emergency cooking show. Thanks again for all you do.
The Mayans aren’t gone.
They are still there. They just relocated due to famine.
Pringles!
I have a dozen tubes! Gotta have a little junk food
Thank for all the effort you go to for us!
Love your perspective on life and appreciate the balance you provide to all of us. Totally agree with your view of making sure you have some food set back.
My family are now starting to appreciate the benefits of preparing.
Thank you and bless you and your families.
I have a question, so if it gets to that point. Do ya put the wood on the out side of the windows or inside? Inside you can make a peek hole, outside you can still open the window.if bugging in, thanks 🤫
If shtf really goes bonkers, like after a week or so, i would selectively armor some windows. Then i would tag them with spray paint to look like looters have already been there.
Brasilians do eat beans and rice every single day. If it does not have beans and rice it is not a propper lunch for us. We buy beans and rice by the 20 pounds bags.
Also you need to be not only an electrical engineer but also a computer programming and electronic components expert to repair electric vehicles! Most of the lithium battery banks these vehicles have are USELESS in severe to extreme cold conditions! So all these people invested in these vehicles living in those climates have started to find out this past winter these vehicles are NOT so reliable…!
IMO if you have a Home Owners Assoc., MOVE, MOVE ASAP!! You will NEVER be able to “prep” in any real way if you live in a subdivision or neighborhood with an HOA!
i try to save food like caned goods, and my housemates reletives throw it out because of the use by date. Im like its good for 10 years. idk if id want to eat it 25 years from now
Roosters give your location away, and the chickens require food. As do the goats and cows. As a small homesteader, you need to grow beans and such, that you can store and save seed from.
Water
Food
Medical
Security
Shelter
There are 36,000 food processing plants, and the percentage of fires has NOT increased. There is NO evidence of significant arson, although some arson does occur.
Protein powders are a viable long term storage solution and great supplement for your protein and other vitamins they may contain… excellent idea!
Along with the dried beans and the rice and the flour stored I have various canned vegetables and canned meats .. good thing I love chef boyardee beef ravioli cheese ravioli and spaghetti with meatballs shake a little parmesan cheese on it and I love it because I have about 60 cans of it stored so far when they go on sale for a dollar or less a piece I always stock up and yes sometimes I don't know what to eat that night I'll go down and grab a couple cans um um Good😂
Talk to us about the wall behind you.
It's lay's potato chips that can't eat just one
For anyone you know who criticizes you for prepping I say "It is better to have extra FOOD and NOT NEED it, than to NEED it and NOT HAVE it."
wish you could stock up on prescriptions
You guys have to try a Harvest Right freeze dryer. Complete game changer.
No water is no 1 then food.
"Gray man" your vehicle
With prepping stock rotation is the most valuable think...
I am trying to think of useful uses for all of the empty tin cans once we start using the can food supply in a long term grid down situation.
Planters for starting plants
hobo stove, arrow points (glass also works) are a few options. noise makers to chase birds, alarms....
Tips from having lived in a bad neighborhood:
Assuming you don't drive something high-end, the best camo is to ask fast-food joints for extra wrappers, cups and napkins. Throw this stuff everywhere in the car so you look like a slob but without the smell. Add in some other rando junk by unboxing some stuff you get in your car and tossing the packaging in the back seat or in the footwells.
Professional thieves have a profile they're looking for and "hiding stuff" doesn't throw that off much. A very clean car indicates discipline and that's associated with having money. Being a total slob, however, does throw off the profile. This won't work against drug addicts since they're either entirely random or they hit every car in the line. Overall rule: Poor people don't generally get robbed or broken into, they've got nothing worth stealing. Try to look poor. You don't need a beater, just an older car in good condition but not perfect collectors condition. Allow a bit of imperfection. People without a lot of money tend to have a cheap car that they take pretty good care of within their means, which kinda provides the sweet spot here, just examine vehicles in your area closely. Especially at a place like a Walmart parking lot. You don't want something that's going to get you pulled over all the time but you also don't something that looks like you have stuff worth stealing either. Add a tint and "trash" and you'll find this works well. If you look like the average Walmart car, peer through the windows and the main thing you see is "trash" you've got it nailed down. [edit] This may work these days with higher end cars too because of the junkie joy-riding habit. If the car's trashed in a way that looks like it was stolen as a mobile crash-pad for shooting up, no one's gonna rob it. [end edit]
Your best sources of information on the goings-on criminally in your area are children, ladies of the night and drug dealers. In that order too. The last two can be found at bars in most cases. Dealers who are three sheets to the wind are reasonably easy to deal with if you can pump up their ego and buy them some drinks. Ladies of the night are professionals, you'll pay them for information and should be cautious in doing so. Drinks make them more honest but can also bring out some emotional stuff you don't really want to deal with. You'll still fork over cash too, they're businesswomen to the end. Be sure to chat up the bartenders too. A couple visits with good tips (but not too good) and they're great sources of information too because they interact with the ladies and the dealers A LOT.
Cops are, in my experience, worthless on this front unless what you really want to know is what cops don't know or where they don't go. Really, most won't tell you anything anyway and will become suspicious if you ask them questions like this.
Finally, the kids absorb information like you wouldn't believe and people tend to talk in front of them. They also have a very limited filter in what they'll tell you if you approach them correctly. I had a neighborhood kid tell me about a murder where the body hadn't even been removed yet, and do so down to nitty gritty details. Damned if two years later that wasn't exactly the case the DA was laying out. Took the cops a bit over a year to figure out what a seven year old knew less than 30 minutes after the fact.
Food helps with kids in a bad neighborhood. They're usually not well fed. The approach is harder and I wouldn't try this unless you frequent the area, in which case they've probably noticed you before anyway. Keep in mind, yes people talk in front of kids but that's what you're doing too by talking to them. Stand out too much and they'll tell other people about you because, again, no filter. You don't want this to become the way you get known in an area.
I ate some 1yr old black beans to see how they would taste just in case. Do not eat old black beans. Yuck
What about my Sooch Gear sticker? Does that make me a target?
Hey guys love your videos, getting alot from them as always, hey are you in sc by chance ?
I just moved from Texas to SC brought alot of my prep with but had to leave alot behind !!
Hey got a great topic cast iron clean up no soap just water great around camp fires
What solar generator do you have?
Look a picture of 4 easy laid down targets with one mag from moderate range all lined up in the thumbnail .LOL
You partner Should not disrespect any branch of the U.S. military
I'd like to see a video just about dehydrating food. How to do it, what you need, what can you dry etc ?
Red Rosie homestead. That's all she does.
@@McRod-1 Thanks 👍
I do a lot of dehydrating,cheap cuts of beef sliced/marinated make great jerky,you can make soup starters with meats veggies and noodles,dehydrate fruits,make your own trail mix,powdered eggs,you can find that on UA-cam,I vacuum seal these items and go a step further by putting those in mylar bags and sealing them
@@leebaldwin6015 Great, thanks 👍. How long will vacuum sealed, dried meat last?
Those 4Patriots, Wise and other brands “emergency food supplies” food are almost inedible! Yes items like the pancake mix is fine and good… but how bad does it have to be to F up pancake mix!? But the other meal items some are just okay while the others aren’t very good to begin with… and they are “always” in family serving sizes. So you can’t really make a single serving of any of it or serving for just 2! All cooking directions are for the whole family size pack. And family size is serving for 4 not 5 not 3. It’s just a waste of money in my opinion! Yes a 72hr emergency food kit will allow you to eat for 3 days “in an EMERGENCY situation” but it WON’T be enjoyable or even good…!
Any food stocks that you buy and store, you NEED to “prepare and eat” them, try them before sinking $100’s or $1000’s into bulk supplies of them!! There are many, many companies out there that sell the freeze dried meals (individual and 2 servings size packs) and foods in #10 cans. Try different meals, different brands, and different food products before buying bulk supplies of any one! I promise you that if you do this, by the time your done trying all the different ones or even a variety of different ones you will be so GLAD that you DID!
Food processors are not using fertilizer; 5:40. I know this from experience.
Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it
I ask what you can advise regarding the S&W EZ Plus weapon, for protection. I would also like a .38 Spl
Get a 9mm in the EZ, and get a revolver that shoots 357 Magnum. If you get the 357 Magun, you can shoot 38 special through it with less recoil, but have the ability to fire the 357 rounds if needed.
Stop the CRP program
have you guy s ever travel over seas
Not like you guys a lot. I listen to all the time, but we do have fertilizer. In my personal opinion, I'm no expert by far but my opinion.
Really all we need is like vegetable scraps and or cow manure.
Keep in mind the context of Biden talking about food shortages was because of climate change. Not sure I would put much stock into what that fellow says.
So my wife's 'avon on board' sticker should probably be taken off.
I might be doing it wrong but I took a month and wrote down each day what I made for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. This list is what I used to fill the extended pantry plus other things like spam and such. As long as there is electricity or gas, natural gas, or propane for the generator we would eat the same way we eat now for at least a year. If you have a well have a hand pump put on that well. This will give you water that you don't have to use the generator to get. Even bad water can be used to flush a toilet. I hate to see this gun is a good fit for most people. I have never met this "most people" lol. I know men who are over 6 foot that a glock has to big a grip for their hand but know women the grip is perfect. Me, I have very small hands. I can't even wrap my hand around a Glock lol.
That's a lot of guns in background 😳 we are not allowed guns in UK. Wish I had a stock like that. Mind you a lot to keep clean and in working order,
Instead of stopping the topic and answering questions maybe try to make the last 10-15 minutes to answer questions might be easier
Do I know you from Deseret Mills? Are you a Medical Doctor?
I think it’s funny about the toilet paper. However I bought 800 cases of toilet paper ones however I own 1300 off houses. So in my head when there’s only a couple cases at my house even though I’m not the toilet business anymore it makes me nervous. So I usually have anywhere from 5 to 7 cases of toilet paper that’s just me every since I’ve sold that total business. And so when everybody was scrambling for toilet paper I had plenty and didn’t have to go out and fight for toilet paper. I will say that my pastor that I have now he just thinks everything is given to you from the Lord. But I’ll tell you up there was three daughters and his wife and all the sudden they realize they were down to one roll of toilet paper. So they had to go run and find toilet paper and a dollar roll
I hope to God most of you preppers have fallout shelters and very well stocked up..
@Sensible Prepper I like you TRUMP NATION SINE 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻I WISH THAT I HAD ONE!
Brother it's not man-made,, It's BIDEN made
How many left handed cigarettes did the Robbie guy smoke before coming on this show? And don’t try to tell me they were just Virginia Slims… that’s weed yo
Whenever I used to hear a Democrat say Trump was “not my President”, I would think…how immature and ridiculous they sound. So when I hear you say Biden is not some people’s president, I cringe with embarrassment. We have got to class up our Republican Party…rise above the immature comments and pettiness! I’m embarrassed for our country as a WHOLE….both sides of the fence need to grow up!
I use to watch sensible preppers videos all the time. But not any more as the guy that’s on the these videos with him has the most obvious common sense commentary. Really feel like he provides nothing more for the channel besides making the video far too long. Therefore I’m out. Got to much to do in the day. Which is funny because I’ve put off writing this comment for a year. Guess I had some time.
Do you ever feel like you just keep repeating yourself over and over and over again?
These shortages are definitely MANMADE. ON PURPOSE.
Where there is a will
There is a way!
Common sense ---rare now.
Hey guys! Hope you link your account to odysee! I like to support content creators there. You get more bang per view and you don't have to do any extra work. Odysee auto syncs your channel content. It's also censorship resistent.
