Prepping

The housing market is out of control — and it’s not just headlines, it’s real. In this episode of the Survival Punk Podcast, we dive deep into the numbers, the history, and what it means for those of us who want to survive and thrive outside the system. Because when the roof over your head becomes unaffordable, it’s time to start thinking like a prepper, not a consumer.

In Episode 79 of The Kershner Files, Dave starts the show by discussing an email he received from Ammo Squared regarding future potential ammo shortages. After that, he provides the usual updates for PMs, Survival Realty, and Gun Shows. From there, Dave showcases the Everyday Carry collection from the tworiversoutfitter.com website and the carrying capacity of one-strap vs two-strap bags. He closes the show by talking about the garden plot and the implementation of electroculture this year. Articles/topics discussed:

In our last live episode (Episode 342), we read Patreons’ comments about what Prepping 2.0 has meant to them - and describe what it’s meant to us. But have no fear: rebroadcasts of Prepping 2.0 will continue. Thanks for an amazing ride. We’ll never forget how wonderful it was talking with you every week.

In this episode of the Survival Punk Podcast, we’re talking about something most people don’t think twice about—light—until it’s gone. When the grid fails, darkness creeps in fast. And it’s not just inconvenient. It’s dangerous. From navigating your space safely to avoiding accidents, staying productive, and even protecting your mental health, reliable lighting is one of the most overlooked survival essentials.

In this episode of the Survival Punk Podcast, we’re getting uncomfortable — on purpose. Because comfort breeds softness, and softness breaks fast under pressure. Real prepping isn’t just about storing food or packing bags. It’s about mental resilience — the ability to keep going when everything sucks. And you don’t get that by staying cozy.

In this episode of the Survival Punk Podcast, we take a hard look at a grim but realistic scenario: surviving on just 1,000 calories a day. Whether it’s a food shortage, a botched resupply, or you're deep into bug-out territory, knowing how to stretch calories and keep going isn’t just useful — it could save your life.

In Episode 341, we listen to some of the touching thoughts from past guests as we transition from the weekly show to the live show. Learn more about our podcast at Prepping 2-0.com

In this episode of the Survival Punk Podcast, we’re going back to basics — and that’s a good thing. Whether you’re building your first bug-out bag or refining your tenth, the 10 Cs of survival are your foundation. Made popular by survival expert Dave Canterbury, the 10 Cs are ten categories of gear that cover everything you truly need — without the fluff or fantasy.

In this episode of the Survival Punk Podcast, we’re tackling a realistic but often overlooked scenario — what if the world falls apart while you’re at work? Most people spend 8+ hours a day away from home. If something goes down — power grid failure, civil unrest, major natural disaster — you might be miles from your gear, your family, and your safety plan.

In Episode 78 of The Kershner Files, Dave provides updates for PMs, Survival Realty, and Gun Shows. After all of that, we discuss the latest updates to the davidjkershner.com website with the new HAM 101 page (under the Resources menu). Dave also spends some time discussing long term food storage and the importance of keeping a good running inventory. He closes the show with two articles from Michael Snyder’s ‘The Economic Collapse’ blog dealing with solar flares affecting not only seismic activity on the planet but Dave also believes it is adversely affecting human activity as well .
