Listen Now	January 20th, 2009 "When There is No Doctor" First, new items at the Survival Center made by the Amish, and what he has scored lately at the garage sales! This is an historic day, the Inauguration of our New President! And we are creating the future by being prepared. This is all about medical, health, and what we can do if no doctor or dentist is available. Richard recommends that everyone take first aid, CPR classes, and EMT training. Have no time to read? Store your books & DVDs in buckets like everything else. This hour is packed with stuff from $5 1st Aid kits to fully stocked EMT kits. Everything shown here can be seen at the website medical page. Lot's of books for everything, specific books for women and children, even a native's guide on medicine in wild plants. There are kits for wound closure, dental repair, O.B., homeopathy, essential oils, broken bone items, oral inflated splints, surgical tool set, EMT kit and more. "It would be wise if we would all learn to do minor surgery" and what about our pets? There's the Pet First Aid kit too, and food that lasts for 2 years. He also recommends stocking up now on "Super Silver", this is so good the FDA is thinking about banning it. The last item is the most complete kit that Uncle Richard put together himself, the "Retreat Medical Kit". If all else fails, and you are not prepared, he shows us the ONE item you must have... when you hear what it is you will never forget it. We end with a message from Uncle Richard for our listeners.
Listen Now	August 26th, 2008 "Tis' the Season!" Uncle Richard reports that we did good at converting part of a tree trunk into firewood at class with hard hat, dust mask, gloves, chain saw, maul, and gas powered splitter! (the chain saw was our favorite part.) He always says "Safety first!" and suggests you go volunteer somewhere you can learn things, maybe you have a contractor friend, etc.. His garage sale latest find "someone else's trash is my treasure" and a mystery item. So let's cozy up to the idea of giving Christmas gifts of preservability this season. Get your pen, he brought a lot of the top most popular books, and how to preserve your books in the "Poly Bucket Library." For those who haven't started preparing yet he recommends a range of small to large emergency kits. The Dewalt power tool set is very cool, as is the solar and crank power flashlight with table lamp and AM FM radio, a real neat looking LED work light with flashing emergency light, and a solar battery charger. And for the person who has everything... a set of hands free night vision binoculars, very cool! There are items here for every budget. It's Christmas time soon, consider giving gifts to those you love that contribute to their preservability!
Listen Now	July 29th, 2008 "Not to Panic, What to Do" We were happy to report we had finally seen the entire 6 hours of the Basic preparedness DVD, there is much in it we did not know, it is very informative and entertaining, then we discovered there is more on the DVD, find out what! "You have to keep going and not stop, it's understanding what it means to prepare." Uncle Richard gets a lot of questions on self defense, and yes that is covered in the B.P. text book. We examine the unofficial "Ramster" knife, the famous K-Bar official Marine Corp fighting knife, and the handy multiple tool pocket knife. Then we shuck some wheat, an introduction to raw food. He mentioned the solar eclipse coming in three days, a time known for "events" and suggested being prepared to be on our own for several days, as we spoke we did not know a 5.4 earthquake hit California just minutes before... What to do with your money... "cash will be king only for a short while, you will need gold, silver, and things to barter. It's raw root survival, are you asleep at the wheel of your reality?" A great story from McChord Air Force Base and so much more is in this hour ...and we had fun!! Female pioneers of military aviation meet at McChord Air Expo Expo represents special homecoming for F-22 Raptor pilot An F-22 Raptor in Flight on youtube
Listen Now	April 10th, 2008 "The Tools for Survival" This is "visual radio" so remote view all the tools and gadgets we talk about as you listen and when the pictures are added see how you did! April is preparedness month in WA and the Survival Center is highly involved in state events and with emergency managers -what is E.M.'s main problem? Funding. Your hosts review the new Basic Preparedness DVD series, it's excellent! Did you know the P.O. stopped shipping surface, about NAFTA and the difficulty shipping to Canada, and not at all to other counties? So you in the USA get your stuff while it's still available. Water, the most important thing, storing, preserving, filtering, and safe drinking. Listener questions: Should we store wheat flour or whole wheat, and what happens when you grind wheat; what's the difference between now and Y2K; what do I do first for my family; what about storing nuts; storing water in plastic bottles; and more... wheat supplies, prices change daily, shortages, masks, and types of buckets and uses. "Survival is really in the details."
Listen Now	February 28th, 2008 "Tips, Tips, and more Tips!" What's going on with the planet; keeping an eye on food supplies, wheat is getting scarce; when huge manufacturers can't deliver until 2-3 months out that tells you there is a shortage ...and demand is increasing which means awareness is -that's good news. Price of items containing wheat will rise, what's the thing to do? Be prepared to eat! "Basic Preparedness" DVD is out - Six hours filmed during a class, this is your home study course. Then more about storable foods, one example is the wheat found at the pyramids, good wheat and 1000's of years old! You can do that too, but what if you are too busy for all of this? Find out about low-land flooding just miles from here, an area that is devastated; event emergency crews admittedly are not able to get to everyone, and could take days; more tips on MRE's, flashlights, knowing your neighbors, staying warm, cooking, the importance of sanitation, how to think in an emergency before reacting, and more. "All the homework has been done, just reach out and take advantage of it." And fixing your attitude, isn't your life worth a little preparedness? Enjoy the self reliance of being able to feed your family if the roads are blocked and the store shelves are bare. "We are helping people get their power back."
Listen Now	January 15th, 2008 "Survival is in the Details" Uncle Richard begins by heating a pan of water on his single camping burner and announces that his new three DVD set on preparedness will be available next month! This is great for those who cannot attend the "Ant School" at the Survival Center. We are going to have MRE's for lunch, hmmmm, never had an MRE before, we'll see how this goes. And this time he didn't forget the... do you remember what it was? He even showed it to us but we couldn't recognize it. "There's no reason why in troubled times we can't have our favorite foods." Are people who are prepared crazy or just plain smart? "Prepare no matter what the critics in your life say, they'll be thanking you later. Some of us have done the research so we know the reasons why we need to be prepared." ...more new gadgets, more things learned; what if the power goes off and never turns on? Survival is in the details; the MRE's are ready, listen to the response! what about pets, do they have long term food storage too? bottled water longevity and what the triangles on plastic bottles mean; how much space does a cow or chickens need? Ooops, we just set off the studio fire alarm, he, he, time for a break!
Listen Now	November 20th, 2007 "Preparedness 101 a 4-finger reminder" (food-water-medical-shelter) Uncle Richard kindly starts our series of his "Ant School of Preparedness" for those who cannot attend the classes held at the Survival Center. He begins by surprising us with lunch! "...to have the experience" and share it with you. We partake of his No Cook Unit developed for those who want instant meals. We enjoyed freeze dried vegetables and beef in brown gravy over white rice that was cooked in a unique energy saving way ...with this unit all you have to do is boil water! It was surprisingly delicious! Then he brings out the "mother of all crackers" (the thickness of cookies and delicious) and from cans he spreads on white cheddar cheese that tastes like yummy brie, and real, smooth and creamy high quality butter that is heavenly (no preservatives or additives) ...yes from cans that will last on the shelf from 10 years to indefinitely! "A nice hot meal in an emergency is a real morale booster." As we munch he suggests you do a test and turn off your power for a weekend just for the experience, things you will need become obvious. And practical "pioneer" skills, can you fix things? How to store shoes and clothes to prevent deterioration. "At some point it's time to stop talking and start doing and that time is now." Learn to think before acting or reacting to avoid fatal mistakes. And ways you can be OK in any situation, like always having the 72 hour kit in your car, and to take it with you everywhere, even when traveling on airplanes! The Survival Center is very experienced and has been a great resource in preparedness for over three decades, Richard is always researching and experimenting. IMPORTANT NOTE: The book 'Basic Preparedness' at the Survival Center is a must read, written from experience, it is excellent, and you should get yours now while you are listening to this series of programs. You will have questions and Uncle Richard wants to answer them throughout this series. So get the book and join our virtual class! Do your homework and send your questions to Uncle Richard Here, put "BTO Ant School questions" in the subject or something to indicate you are a BTO listener attending class. (If you are able to attend classes at the Survival Center the book is included in the fee.) Host Notes: We were impressed and delighted to find that "survival" food is better than what we eat now! This was so gourmet good it shed a new light on the "days to come" and why wait? It's easy, healthy, convenient, and fast.
