I have noticed that not everyone shares the same belief systems that cause people to be “preppers” or interested in DIY or self-reliance, and that sometimes people can even think that those that want to do things themselves and take responsibility for their own life are “weird” or “strange”.

Because of this, whenever I find others  that share my belief systems and live nearby I embrace them and treasure finding those that are like minded.

Today I get to share with you one of those people – a brilliant mind that not only shares a lot of the same hobbies as I do, but has surpassed me in many of them…

I hope to have today’s guest on more in the future as Joe Hildreth is a leader in the Middle TN conservative movement, coordinates and teaches financial peace classes, and has built his own CNC machine –

But today, we are going to talk about casting metal.  We will talk about the basic premise, how to get started, why its something preppers should consider learning and give some good tips and books to learn more if you are interested.

Of all my interviews, this one was one of the most enjoyable, and I found myself asking questions that I wanted to know…

In today’s show we interview Steven Wright of 4 Walls International, Steven has earned B.S. in Biological Sciences with an emphasis in Evolution and Ecology from the University of California Riverside (2006) and is co-founder and executive director of 4 Walls International, a California based non-profit that uses abandoned tires and other trash to build sustainable housing in Tijuana Mexico.

The mission of 4 Walls is to to address and solve current and future environmental challenges while improving overall quality of human life.

Their program unites the community in the common goal of building dependable shelters that promote agricultural production and sustainability, we will encourage recovery of finite natural systems and promote education for a more environmentally conscious future.

With self-reliance as a goal, they have a lot in common with preppers – I have long said that our community can learn a lot from appropriate technology advocates, missionaries, and Non-governmental organizations working in third worlds.

If they can build sustainable communities in areas lacking resources and infrastructure, there is no reason why we cannot do the same here in America.

Diane Teagarden is an author and soon after completing her first book, she opened her own self-help book publishing company. She named it “Firewalker Publications” to remind herself of how she had “come through the fire” by facing her worst fears.

She has several books dealing with divorce, domestic abuse, and fiction, but today David talks with her about her latest book, Budgeting on a Dime- 10 Steps to Financial Independence.

Diane Teagarden gives good advice on budgeting without feeling poor, on saving money, and making lifestyle changes to get control of family finances.

*In doing a broken link check I found that firewalker publications is no longer a valid website.  I hope Diane Teagarden is still active in the publishing word because I really enjoyed her book and felt it was useful to all. It seems that a lot of self reliant advocacy buisnesses are failing lately. I hope that is not a trend.

This book is about personal responsibility, and has a lot in common with basic preparedness concepts.
You can learn more about her books at firewalker publications

We have been podcasting with the Preparedness Radio Network PRN for 6 months now.  I am pleased with the quality of information we have been able to provide.

I was working on a consolidated list of shows to celebrate this 6 month milestone.  However, while doing so, our audio editor had a major heart attack.

We aren’t going to have a live show this week in order to give him some time to rest.

So instead of a live show, we are going to have a “Best Of” episode.  I will put a consolidated list of shows with links below.

That way you can catch up on any shows you may have missed.

The show is scheduled for Monday at 10pm central time at this link.

Today on the Shepherd School Show, David interviews Fernando Aguirre, also known to many preppers as Ferfal.

Fernando grew up in Argentina and tells us first-hand what life was like during and after the economic collapse of the 1990′s.

Most preppers make educated guesses about what would happen, or what they would do in a catastrophic disaster.

Ferfal has lived through it.  In today’s interview he and David talk about what happened, common survival strategies that people used, the economics of surviving disasters, the government and how it reacts, as well as many other topics.

Fernado also gives some good tips on what he found to work in real life.  I think this is pretty important and this is one of my favorite episodes of all.  I think every prepper should read his book.

At the very least, visit his website to see what a real economic disaster looks like.

What happened in Argentina can happen here in the United States. It pays to learn how modern people survived such a collapse
