What we did was turn the water and electric off for 3 days and then made a list of everything we couldn't use and what alternatives we're. We refrained from going out to eat during that time or using someone else things and that got us started. It won't give everything but it did opened our eyes and gave us a really good starting point.

[@ps4ever328]

Great idea!

[@jonathancleve6094]

Awesome idea! A long term power outage is one of the worst case scenarios. Especially if you live in an area that is very hot in the summer or cold in the winter.

[@ginatulip8679]

great idea, and you save some money off electric bill

[@msgottaneedtoknow]

That’s a great idea! We learned the hard way when after winter ended so did our guarantee to not have our power turned off. (Yes- we were paying but it was so high it was not enough), and my husband was layed off. We went through most of the summer without power. Five of our six kids were still living at home so we really learned a lot. It’s doable if you have what you need. Generator, wood stove, etc. it’s just a bit of a pain but you get into a groove. I almost didn’t care if it was turned back on (can’t say the same for my teenagers, lol).

[@tomjones239]

Nero Pero ... I suggest that you get some decent portable radios in case the internet and electricity fail. I recommend getting these: The Sony ICF-P26, P36 and the Tecsun R-9012. These are old school analog transistor radios with very good AM (and shortwave too on the Tecsun) reception and these have absolutely incredible battery life....well over 100 hours using two AA batteries. The Sony is decent on FM too but not the Tecsun. AM radio signals can be heard up to 1000 miles away at night allowing you to get news and info from a large region. If you want great FM radio get something digital. Digital radios use up batteries fast though. See todderbert KZbin channel to help you decide what radio to get. The two I mentioned are inexpensive but work great. If you have a lot of money you might want something different. I`m buying all the REAL analog radios I can find due to their excellent battery life. But most of the cheap "analog" style radios sold use a digital DSP chip which reduces battery life and makes it hard to tune and listen to the weaker signals on the AM band. FM is generally good on these radios though. If you want to listen to HAM radio on shortwave the Tecsun PL 880 is good but it uses a rechargeable battery. CCrane makes a small pocket sized radio called the Skywave that uses two AA batteries that gets aircraft and weather bands too and they have a version that uses SSB to tune in HAMs. It costs nearly $200.00 though. The regular version costs $89.00 plus shipping and tax.

[@venomlink2033]

I’m exactly 22. Thankfully I’ve got all 5 down. I’ll add a 6th though. GET IN SHAPE mentally and physically.

"Where There Is No Doctor, a village health care handbook" by David Werner is a good book to have on hand. "Field Guide to Edible Wild Plants" by Bradford Angier is another book I have had in my stash for many years. The "Foxfire" books also. Seed saving books, basic canning book, outdoor skills books, etc. Having hard copies of books, articles printed off of the internet, and journal notes of things you have learned about over time, skills, step by step information... is also a helpful thing to have...in case something happens and you aren't around.

Military field manuals are handy as well. Tons of them available that aren't classified and you can get them as ebooks for free. You can print them out (a lot are in pdf). And/or, as I've done, use a couple (redundancy is good) of your old phones or tablets with extra memory in them. Also, buy SEVERAL solar chargers for them.

One day we had an ice storm and the power went out for 10 days. We had no heat, light, no way to cook, and no sewer. Fortunately we are campers so we knew how to use the fireplace. Getting used to pooping in a bucket was a new experience, but it prepared me for the lifestyle I chose in retirement. Watch some of the van life/nomad videos. Those folks have a lot of ingenuity and they're living in a lot smaller space than an apartment. Most have solar, they have small woodburning stoves, they know how to insulate their vehicles, they can be "stealthy", they stay mentally strong, etc. (Also watch bushcrafter videos, then go outside and try the ideas.) I'm 70 years old and have lived in my van for 6 months at a time. I can build a fire, cook on a fire box, poop in a bucket, sterilize rainwater (finally bought a Berkey), and hike up a mountain. Planning wisely I can take enough food to eat healthy for 6 months. Summers I go "home" to see my family, work the family farm, dehydrate food and prepare for the winter. I actually enjoy my life more being self sufficient than I ever did working behind a desk as a "city slicker".

"If you can't run, jog. If you can't jog, walk." So what do you do if you can't walk? I fall/roll/flop moderately well, but I'm not sure that is expedient to moving quickly or directionally.

I understand this thing seems like it’s being drug out and taking too long, but going and demanding action that is already in progress seems like unnecessary drama to me(just my opinion). Hopefully everyone will keep a cool head and nobody gets hurt. I’m positive that a greater evil is at work in our country and worldwide. That evil wants us divided. A divided population is easier to conquer and control. Would be nice if we all took the side of humanity, and not divide ourselves into groups based on demographics, because to fight the real evil that is tearing us apart will take everyone. The real tyrants are the globalists. If we as a population are fighting amongst ourselves, they win. Stay safe, keep prepping, and god bless.

Heads up!!!!!! The NFAC ( balck version of the KKK ) will be in Louisville on the 25th of this month. They will be gathering in the Central High School parking lot at 11am and marching across Louisville KY all day. Stay safe !!!

[@RiverBirchFarm]

I live in the country and am very thankful that I have a survivor mind. Large garden, 2 growing seasons here, plenty of seeds. Canning meats and a lot of canned goods. Praying for the best, expecting the worse LOVE the guineas in the back ground, thanks for the sound advise, we do hunt so no need to explain that one. Time is running out so I hope people are listening and get their butts in gear because only they can provide for themselves, don't expect others to give theirs away!!!

[@gardener6770]

Shalom pj. This is good info for all, not just late comers. I like those numbers. Many blessings to u, love to sister.

[@cattywampusmcdoogle]

I just went and bought 6 foot casting nets for fishing to go with my tackle boxes and 6 poles.

[@bswihart1]

Damn happy that I got my teeth done, 4 pulled and scaling, needed done 15 years ago but....

[@bathombre9739]

I had the same thought, had 2 remaining wisdom teeth removed

[@ReturnToTheSaltMineGaming]

This is a great video! I started prepping a year ago and still dont feel ready! But I am very happy I invested in education like finishing my Paramedic lisence and learning to can food!

[@psychrn6041]

PJ, I watched this video about four months ago. I filled my pantry the best I could and by the beginning of Nov I was pretty well stocked. Financially, for a few reasons, but mostly the effects of Covid restrictions, so tight... I learned how to cook canned corn beef and luncheon meat, and have been thankful for it. Love and prayers from Canada

Buy the book! It's great. Survivalist Famifly - Joe Fox

[@jessespence4059]

Got my copy 2 weeks ago. Patreon is next

[@denisegirmer4550]

Awesome book!

[@jordanonunez2202]

Thank u sir

[@Mtncubpa]

Joe. Thank you. I am ready. I don’t want to be in this movie the walking dead. I am however. September is the month I feel will turn bad. Today I prepare the best I can. Tomorrow wanting to continue to be around educated rational people. I am taking stock and realizing much was for not. I will continue to learn and watch your videos. Good Stuff. Always! Thank you.

[@annmarie2964]

Once the weather starts cooling down again, I think it will get worse too.

[@gabriellesmith5661]

Lol you’re pretty funny 🤣 I like your sense of humor! Survivalist here just working to get the best prep, land, so I can finally get a garden really going. Doing nothing but chickens and vertical gardening at the moment

[@robertneville2022]

Pastor Joe you so funny You make me laugh long time 😁 I come back and watch this from time to time when I start to burn out on getting ready for when the time comes

[@loganv0410]

Old Caterpillar ad in National Geographic: "There are no simple answers" Thanks for refreshing that concept. Like good Army training it may/should be hard, but it is useful!

[@DogBeast221]

“The more you sweat in training, the less you bleed in battle.” HOOAH!

Praying all day every day!

[@randybennett204]

I really do appreciate your straightforward approach to sharing this essential information. Once again I say: thank you. I'm praying for you and yours. Please pray for me and mine.

[@nibrocnoel3240]

PFJ I like your stories! Your stories on VP brought me to Shofar Mt videos. It got me thinking and reading. Thanks

[@avalonmist254]

Great video; I'm a homebirth midwife and Registered Nurse for 40 years. I'm alone too. The shotgun is the difficult one for me however your right I need one. I will use it if I need to. Bless you and yours.

[@mickeybarton9077]

Wish you were my neighbor I got the guns

[@greybeard277]

20 guage is also good, with less recoil, if that is a consideration.

[@genghisken0181]

.20 guage or .410 is gonna get the job done. There are plenty of old inexpensive single and double barrel shotguns in pawn shops and estate sales. Shotgun is the modern day musket. You can hunt with it and defend the homestead. They are easy to use and very dependable. You don't need a fully rigged out tacticool pump gun. The old "just the sound of the pump will scare them away" is bunk. The problem at this stage of the game is ammo - that is a whole 'nother soap box...

[@Trulyblessedwith]

Peppermint oil stops the pain from wasp stings . 3 drops over course of 5 minutes.Might help for hornet stings.

[@gardener6770]

Ammonia is great for bee stings. Even window cleaner works. Stops pain instantly.

[@margieruiz7206]

Clorox on wasp sting stops pain too

[@joybrooks564]

It also keeps mice away

[@francesca2173]

OMG . . .I so enjoyed this video. So glad I found you! Thank you!

[@jimviau327]

Thank you Joe Fox for keeping me going. Nobody wants to follow me in my "paranoia " around here. Not even my significant other. They laugh, they say I'm crazy. It's thought . You are one of my major inspiration so that I don't get mad. Just want to say thanks for being a reference point in this upside down world.

[@joeylandry4933]

Good information, I pray it’s a nothing burger 🍔 but I’m so glad my family and I are in the country. I think about my granny and her stories of the Great Depression. They were so poor they didn’t realize that there was a Great Depression, they thought it was normal 😉

[@kevinh891]

I am so glad you said it was bunk, cause I was laughing my butt off...

[@coleentinsley3074]

THANK YOU for getting to the point..... great idea... and I listened this time... before I just could not get thru

[@cranky-toobin2307]

Pastor Joe! I love you man! Keepin it real and keepin it hopeful, but being real with those that aren’t ready. Just letting you know... in Michigan, we’re ready! Keep it free brother!

[@4philipp]

You know, those people don’t want advice. They want a “fix it all pill” type solution so they don’t have to actually do anything.

[@r.sampson1421]

Wait are you saying there isn’t an app for that? Ha ha ha

[@Cosmos142857]

The rule is, Faith without works is dead.

They will get that pill some people call it the red pill.

Been watching for years. Just bought the book. Be nice to hear from ya when the grid goes dark. Now i can.

[@newatthis50]

Lived this a few years back. Your thought process changes when totally alone. Was in northern Alberta, bears, wolves etc. Found myself carrying a rifle , as out there you are the game!! Was way more thoughtful of actions as I could be killed and no one know. Just about too old now, arthritis got me. Starting this fall

[@tngardener231]

I’ve been dehydrating and canning and buying every day for years.. your saying all I needed is a few cases of items and I’m good? Lol I’m just teasing and I wish it was that simple.

[@404BOOMER]

Dont forget pet food

[@elfmom52]

Yes indeed HS! I make food for my cats and feel the Lord gave me the idea to make a few batches of it, dehydrate it and vacuum seal it. It worked out great and they like it! Also loaded up on the dry and vacuum sealed a bunch of it too.

[@msgottaneedtoknow]

elfmom52 That’s an idea I hadn’t thought to do! Smart!!! Now if I could just afford a freeze dryer! Never mind - you said dehydrator! I can get one of those! lol

[@bowlofrice8]

For sure. Don't forget pets make good food.

[@404BOOMER]

Even if that were true that's a hell of a nasty comment.

[@charlesmckinley29]

elfmom52 it may last a bit longer vacuum sealed but dry food goes rancid over time. PJF mentions it in an earlier video. He now has rice set aside for the dogs.

[@danielmarshall4587]

LOVING THE VID cheers. As always right on the money, the unprepared are unprepared and always will be.

[@danielmarshall4587]

And I wish you all the best thank you Pastor Joe, thank you.

[@jamesfrymier8205]

PJ I love your message of self reliance. Common sense is becoming a rare commodity. My cellar is full, grain and hay are stored, springs are cleared and ammo is adequate but never enough. Thanks for the kick a couple years ago, not ready, never ready... thx again

[@PopleBackyardFarm]

I am studying my Bible like never before be prepared spiritually for the Lord's soon return and like always I make sure my family is provided for like the Book Of Esther... she prepared a banquet and prepared herself spiritually to approach the king and the attitude If I perish I perish God is in charge.

[@thriftyveegee4129]

Need to grow an herbal garden. This way when you have Bland foods you can make it taste better.

[@dragonfly6193]

Yep. Also grow medicinal herbs and learn how to use them. And forage for them on your property as well! Buy an aloe plant while you're at it.

[@fawn1785]

I started last year and have 11 8x4 raised gardening beds. I tried square foot gardening this year. What a mess. Never do that again. For all the mistakes I made this year I've learned so much. By next year I hope to have a 12 month productive canning garden. This requires lots of herbs. People don't realize how much their food is seasoned.

[@Laurie_Tinsley]

Bland food will taste awesome when you are starving :)

[@bowlofrice8]

Stock spices

[@nearlyorganicnoshing2798]

This is a great video. Love the honesty. If all we had to worry about, is my husband and I, we would be fine, but two kids (19 & 23), in different towns, over an hour away, who do not grasp the prepping concept, very sick parents Parkinson's & Heart issues, plus numerous relatives, that are barely scraping by, make for extra work. It is not just us, we have to stock for. We are very self reliant, but it is never enough, when you are surrounded by friends, and family, who will be looking to you for help. Chickens & rabbits, are a great addition, for a renewable meat source, that is relatively cheap & easy to maintain.

“You can still get them, your going to pay twice what they are worth...” If things get so bad that you need a gun, I’m betting that if you would have paid 10 times what they are going for you would think it was a bargain.

It's a matter of mindset and self determination. Someone can help you get started but IT'S ALL ON YOU!

I found a plain white cotton sheet cut in strips works way better for injuries than the stuff you get at the drug store. My son injured his toe & the store wraps caused it to have a green puss and wouldn't heal. I cleaned cotton sheets without soap(tiny bit bleach) rinsed twice and dried (no dryer sheets) His toe healed very fast w/ using sheets. The cotton pulls the moisture away from you skin. My two cents from a mom.

[@MM-qm7og]

The garage in my house has a [grandfathered] built-in mechanics pit 6ft deep in one of my garage bays originally built with the house in 1957. I keep four 55 gallon water barrels down there which keeps the water at 55° 365 days a year. i rotate the water once a year. i have hand pumps, and filters for thousands of gallons (plus my big berkey). the theory is, its enough water for winter, or a good portion there of. Due to the water table of my property, my well overflows 1.5-ish gallons a minute except in the most extreme of droughts. all winter long, fresh, flowing water. i had to install a 200” drainage ditch. The distance from the outflow spout to the garage is relatively short, so it fills a bucket with the overflow in about 45 mins.
