Prepping Academy

On “The Prepping Academy” join Forrest and Kyle as they talk guns for defense. As American diplomacy, politics, and society falls apart anyone with a sane mind should be considering owning a gun and preparing for a WROL (with rule of law) America. Heck, probably a few. Why a few? The simple fact is that guns are tools. If you’ve ever gardened you know that you wouldn’t use a flat shovel to plow; just like you wouldn’t use a broad fork to dig a well. So don’t go in to a gun shop with a mindset that “a gun is a gun.” And for the love of all that is holy and sane, do not buy a gun from the gun shop that tries to say a shotgun is the only weapon you need for home defense.With the view that every gun is a tool, Kyle and Forrest will be diving straight in to the best guns for a prepper. Personal recommendations and experience go a long way in this industry. The first tool we’ll be discussing is what some call their “main battle rifle.” This is typically an AR15, AK47, or a variant. Some folks may consider these wea

Body armor life saving tactical gear for preppers and survivalist. Upcoming on “The Prepping Academy”. Hey guys and gals, coming up this week on “The Prepping Academy” we’re going to be covering fun life saving tactical gear. That’s right, we’ll be talking body armor.  We’ll be having a special guest Chad from Infidel Body Armor on this topic joining us for the show. Either way it’s going to be extremely informative and helpful in making you Armor and chest rig selection.Now in any SHTF scenario protection is a must. You wouldn’t play football without a helmet would you? So would you really go in to a potential gun battle without life saving armor? We should think not. Not all body armor is created equal. There are a ton of opinions. Some are lighter, but lack multi hit capabilities. Others have multi hit capabilities, but can weigh up to 10lbs per plate. So what’s the right choice? And if you’re getting armor you’ll need a plate carrier. What the heck is that and what works best?Once you get your armor and y

Coming up on “The Prepping Academy” our host Forrest and Kyle are going to be discussing urban survival. You might be thinking to yourself this doesn’t apply to you. Let us assure you it does. Current statistics say that approximately 82% of the United States population lives in an “urban environment.” That number is projected to climb to nearly 90% by 2030.The average commute to and from work is 25.4 minutes. A car accident, stalled car, injured pedestrian, school bus, and weather can double that on a bad day. What happens though if those roads become impassable? Can you make it home by foot? What tools do you carry every day  to help you? Getting home is priority one. Forrest and Kyle will be discussing how this can be done while keeping a low profile.Now that you’ve made it home you need to think about survival. Maybe you live in a small bungalow, apartment, or studio with no land to grow on. So how exactly do you intend to provide for yourself, family, or friends. Kyle will be discussing some alternative

On “The Prepping Academy” Forrest and Kyle will be discussing force multipliers. If you’re not familiar with what these are this is going to be a good show to not only listen in on, but participate in the live chat and ask questions. The essence of a force multiplier is any tool or tactic that gives you the upper hand. It’s a very broad term and can encompass everything from gear to morale.This week Kyle will be touching on something that he’s a bit passionate about. Holocaust deniers and replacement theology. There is a strong agenda today by some to deny the Holocaust, and even WWII ever happened. This is done in order for some demographics to claim they are the real Jews or superior to others. You may never realize it’s there and how dangerous it is until it’s too late.Starting our force multiplier discussion we’ll be talking about some force multipliers you can take care of that cost you absolutely nothing. Mental preparation, map reading skills, land navigation, knowing how to read the weather, night tra

Welcome to “The Prepping Academy.” On this week’s show we will be changing up gears. Obviously January 20th is a much anticipated day. President Elect Trump will be sworn in and we will be saying farewell to President Obama. The months and weeks building up to this moment have been filled speculation.Leftist radicals like Michael Moore have been promising to orchestrate a 100 day rebellion against the incoming administration. We’ll be joined by Samuel Culper. Samuel is at the forefront of intelligence gathering for the prepper community. Samuel Culper is a former military intelligence NCO and contract intelligence analyst. He spent three years in Iraq and Afghanistan on intelligence missions, and now runs Forward Observer, a company that provides training and intelligence solutions for SHTF preparedness.Check out his web site at https://readfomag.com He will be covering the inauguration and giving us updates on any intel coming in regarding protest.For this week’s conspiracy theory of the week Kyle is going t

Winter Survival & PreparednessWelcome to “The Prepping Academy.” Upcoming this week we’re going to be covering something essential for this time of year. Winter survival. Every year we hear about American’s going off the roads and getting stranded. Even worse, we hear about people freezing to death in their own homes because of lack of heat. There are also some advantages to the winter weather.Before that we’ll be jumping straight in to Kyle’s conspiracy theory of the week. At Forrest request Kyle will be covering something a little more mainstream. Deep unground military bases or DUMBS. What are they? Do they exist?The first segment we will be covering is traveling in snowy or icey conditions. Proper vehicle maintenance definitely comes in to play, but there are also essentials in addition to your get home bag that you should never travel with out. For example, traveling with two bags of kitty litter can save your life. Proper placement can add extra weight to your rear wheels for stabilization. And if y

Predicting The Future!Welcome to “The Preppig Academy.” This program in the player below is all about the future. That’s right, Forrest and Kyle predict the future. Well, kind of; you’ll have to stay alive and listen next year to see if they were right!It seems as though almost every New Year folks across the internet want to put out some predictions for what is coming. Of course, a lot of times people can be way off. Y2k, 2012, alien invasions, the list goes on and on. So if people are typically wrong are predictions still important to have? Absolutely! Walking in to anything without some planning and analysis is horribly irresponsible. The trick is to make sure you’re reading all the signs properly. So Forrest and Kyle will be providing a unique insight to the year you won’t be hearing from anyone else.In addition to the predictions our hosts will also be discussing goals for 2017. Now are these “New Years Resolutions?” Far from it. These are things that need to be done. The holidays are over. Time to evalu

So while you’re catching up and sharing memories you have a great opportunity to discuss Prepping. Assuming of course these are the relatives you want to survive.A lot of preppers live in a closet. Some take years to come out tofamily and friends. If you’re comfortable and confident in defending and explaining what you do, it’s time to share. Forrest and Kyle will be discussing their own personal experiences with opening up to family and friends about Prepping. This will include some great scenario questions to ask and reasons to quote to get the ball rolling.A common misconception is that discussing your preps destroys your OPSEC. So Forrest and Kyle will also be discussing setting boundaries within the discussion. So don’t let this opp

Recent discoveries from this the Podesta Wikileaks’s emails have unveiled a new scandal, “Pizza Gate.” According to investigators there is a hidden code within the emails between notable politicians which implicates them in a child sex trafficking ring. While this is not concrete, the evidence is very compelling and we feel it’s important to bring it to light so people can do their own research. According to most recent reports the powers that be are already trying to cover th

Welcome to “The Prepping Academy.” The upcoming Show for Friday November 25, 2016 is going to be a show you don’t want to miss. It’s that time of year again. The holiday chaos, food, family, road rage, and the one question that plagues us all: what do you buy for the Prepper who has everything?

America voted, How to prepare for the Election Results.Welcome to “The Prepping Academy.” We hope you have had a good week. More importantly, this is written on the Saturday before the show; so we hope the world has not descended in to post election chaos. In the event that it has you probably won’t be listening. If are listening and the nation is rioting we hope you are at your bug out location or in a bunker somewhere.This election has been one of the most historic in the lifespan of our nation. The forces of good and evil are clearly battling. Hillary has utilized special interest, Wall Street, media, and all things corrupt. While Trump’s blunt behavior and loud demeanor has been off putting to many Americans. Though the brainwashed masses on entitlements would never vote for anything other than status quo. This election could have swayed any which way.Early on there have been reports of voter fraud, illegal immigrants being bused in, and even voting machines that magically change your vote. Clearly some t

This week on the “The Prepping Academy” Forrest and Kyle are going to be discussing one of the most important aspects of prepping, water. It is a life giving fundamental we take for granted every day. Whether you’re at home or work you always have ease of access to it. What happens though when the power goes out and water no longer flows from you tap? Access to freshwater supplies is becoming an urgent matter across the planet. How much water should you have? Do you know where to locate water, how to purify, sanitize, create, and store it? These are all things we will be covering. Be sure to take notes because we’ll be covering some very interesting tricks you’ll want to retain.Some elites, like Nestle CEO Peter Brabeck have been quoted as saying “Water is not a human right.” The Bush family back in 2005 and 2006 visited and eventually bought rights (over 300,000 acres) to the world’s largest water aquifer in South America. So if the elites are buying up water and not considering it a human right shouldn’t yo

Join Forrest and Kyle on this special show with an amazing guest. We skipped Kyle’s Conspiracy of the Week to maximize the interview. During a recent trip to Prepper Camp, Forrest was able to meet a lot of interesting folks. And he even managed to convince a few in to being on the show. This guest needs little introduction if you’ve ever watched the History channel series “Alone.” He was the first season’s winner, Alan Kay. If you’re not familiar with “Alone” it is a must for any Prepper. Contestants are dropped on Vancouver Island with limited tools, little resources, and plenty of challenges.Alan Kay is a Georgia native, passionate outdoorsman, and well trained in combative arts. He’s also studied medicinal plants and tactical medical response. During his time competing on the show Alan had limited resources.

This discussion is about the most important prep any individual can use. Your mind. Over the past 15 years I’ve personally gone through several significant changes with my mindset. At one point, despite being raised around guns and shooting from age 5, I wanted absolutely no part in owning a firearm. Fast forward several years and I began to see them not as weapons, but as tools in the protection of my life, liberty, and and family.Forrest and I often come across preppers on a regular basis whom we refer to as “highly interested.” While we are always happy to talk to a fellow prepper it’s important to know that an interested prepper is often a liability when compared with a motivated prepper. What category do you fall? Ask yourself a really simple question. Is prepping a hobby or a lifestyle? Speaking for myself, and I know many others, my family and I have made prepping a dedicated way of life. We’ve sacrificed vacations, extra luxuries, and even savings to make sure we’re well prepared for a number of circu

Many Preppers define their preps and mind set by the catastrophe which they are preparing for. It’s safe to say one of the most concerning scenarios is that of economic collapse. With everything in the news this past week about the Deutsche Bank, the 9/11 Bill against Saudi Arabia, and the elections it’s probably as good a time as any to discuss this. You’ve probably read a plethora of articles discussing gold and silver. Unfortunately no one can say what an economic collapse of this proportion would look like. So what can you do to prepare?There are two types of economic collapse you can prepare for. The first is the sudden collapse. A lot of authors theorize this event kicking off with immediate bank runs, a credit system shutdown, and the raiding of stores. Honestly, that’s likely the ideal collapse. Preppers would likely have plenty of time to get to their bug out locations, pack their preps, board up their house, and so on. That brings us to the worst scenario. The frog in the pot. The slow economic coll

Join Forrest and Kyle this Friday as they discuss “Prepper Camp.” A few weekends ago Forrest was live from Prepper Camp on the first night.

Discussing the mounting tension between police and protesters; as well has having a live interview in player below with Charlotte Mecklenburg’s District 5 county commissioner Matthew Ridenhour.This last week Keith Lamont Scott was shot and killed by a CMPD officer. All initial reports from the police report claim that Scott has a firearm and was not complying with officers orders. A video of the events was released by the family early Friday, but the location of the gun is not easily observed in this video. Scott’s family maintains a position of innocence and is trying to demonize the events a protest did take place. Initial elements of the protest were peaceful. Unfortunately a small, but growing fraction of that element broke off and turned to violence. police department as we’ve seen nationwide.Like with many of these Within hours the looting of a local Walmart, random attacks on whites, blocking of major highways, and deployment of the police occurred. Police engaged what the media calls “protesters” with
