Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadOn September 1, 1859, auroras lit up the night sky. Telegraph lines sparked. Operators were shocked at their keys. The world had just experienced the Carrington Event—the most powerful solar storm ever recorded. If that same storm happened today, we wouldn’t be talking about fried telegraphs. We’d face the potential loss of the power grid and nearly every aspect of modern life that depends on electricity. That’s why, on this Carrington anniversary and the kickoff of National Preparedness Month, I’m re-releasing my conversation with NASA engineer and EMP expert Dr. Arthur Bradley. Dr. Bradley…
Once upon a time, alcohol was banned in this country. It didn’t stop people from drinking it, but it was considered so bad for people that a constitutional amendment was ratified to ban booze. It didn’t last long, thankfully, but the truth of the matter is that it caused irreparable harm to the country. While marijuana isn’t the same as a good bottle of bourbon, the Supreme Court ruled that recreational users of illicit substances shouldn’t be subjected to a lifetime ban from gun ownership. One would imagine this should count as common sense, and…

Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadCrisis doesn’t just hit the grid, the grocery store, or the gas pump. It hits the people around you. It hits your home. And for parents, especially those with young kids, the biggest challenge isn’t the gear and supplies. It’s helping your family adjust mentally and physically to the new normal, whatever that craziness might be. This article was inspired by a question from Dustin in South Carolina, a longtime listener who asked: As a husband and father of two elementary school-aged kids, what are your thoughts on how to best help families…
Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadWhen disaster strikes, there’s no room for guesswork. That’s where the Survival Pyramid comes in. It strips things down to the essentials. It cuts through the noise and helps you focus on what actually keeps people alive—and what keeps them moving forward when everything else has gone sideways. This is the framework I developed after decades of responding to emergencies—from lifeguarding and EMS calls to war zones, natural disasters, and real-world collapse scenarios. It’s built for people who want to have a solid framework from which to effectively prioritize their survival preparedness—without wasting time…
Storm Alho did not grow up in a Marine Corps family. He was born and raised in Pretoria, South Africa, and moved to the United States three years ago. But when the Woodbridge Senior High School student sat down to draw his entry for the National Museum of the Marine Corps’ annual student art competition, he focused on a military ideal familiar to generations of service members: never leaving someone behind. “I Swore I’d Bring You Home,” a graphite drawing by Woodbridge Senior High School student Storm Alho, received Best in Show honors in the National Museum of the Marine…

Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadWhen people start thinking about emergency preparedness, they usually have concerns about food, water, and physical supplies such as toilet paper and first aid. But there is another aspect that is just as important: your data. This could include family photos, tax records, and records such as banking and medical records. Just losing your contact list stored on your phone could present a major problem. Natural disasters are not the only threats to worry about. Cyberattacks are happening to more and more people and establishments, and they can be just as damaging as a…
A group of eight brave, bold women took to the sky for a historic parachute jump to mark the 82nd anniversary of D-Day in early June. The group included veterans, first responders, law enforcement officials and women working in intelligence, making history as the first all-female unit to leap over Normandy, France. The “chalk” not only commemorated D-Day, one of the most important military operations in American history, but also brought recognition to the role of women in the World War II resistance movement, a vital group that often gets overlooked. The group included Carol Whitmore, the first female commander-in-chief…
