Extracted is a TV series from Fox (streaming on Hulu) that takes 12 amateur survivalists with two teammates each out to British Columbia to compete for $250,000. The survivalists are monitored by their teammates from a command center, where the team attempts to help them with supply drops and instructions. The team can also hit the big red button, extracting the survivalist, which is where the show’s name comes from.Survivalism takes a backseat to drama in this series, since it pits teams against each other and relies on the struggles of the amateur survivalists for suspense. Still, despite the inexperience…

Hurricanes pose a large threat to those who live near the coast. Between the high wind and massive amounts of rain, they can cause various types of damage that can exceed $150 billion each year.I’ve lived through several hurricanes of all categories and dealt with flooding, wind damage, power outages, and more. In North Carolina, we don’t have it quite as bad as Florida, but less prepared communities can have even tougher times with large storms.Many people around the world and in the US aren’t affected by hurricanes, so this list isn’t for everyone. But, if you live on the…

Water is a basic human need and key to survival. Methods to gather, store, and sanitize water are all important, but knowing how much water you may need is important as well.

Christmas is around the corner, and plenty of companies that sell prepping supplies and survival gear are running countdown sales leading up to it. They approach it differently- a few move the 12 days further out to account for shipping, if they do most of their business online. Either way, the winter sales are a good opportunity to get those last-minute gifts, use up FSA funds, or round out a survival kit before 2026 gets here.For the most part, the deals are on emergency food storage and tactical gear. They are usually flash sales on specific gear or supplies, designed…

There are preppers out there sharing videos with their tens of followers, but the best accounts are resonating with hundreds of thousands. We’ll share more about TikTok preppers and the top 10 accounts to follow below. Contents…
On Monday of this week I wrote about a bizarre civil suit that had gone to trial in Portland, Oregon involving a convicted burglar and the owner of the business he broke into, who shot the man in self-defense. Kenneth Voyles was seeking $10 million from John Grant, the owner of Touchstone Granite & Marble, claiming the business owner had inflicted emotional and physical damage to him without any justification. As I wrote at the time:Portland’s reputation as a far-left haven for progressives is well-deserved, but there are also a lot of residents who are…
