Today's Episode: Common Sense Preparedness Part 2: Food Pantries, Root Cellars and Backyard Storm Shelters

Your Hosts: Sharon Iezzi (and "Billy Bob")

Lots of us are getting the feeling that a "storm" is coming, and with it the danger that we may be caught unprepared. On today's show Sharon and "Billy Bob" discuss two old-fashioned ways of weathering the storms--whether they be natural or man-made--that work just as well now as they did for our grandparents. 

1st half-hour: Sharon and “Billy Bob” talk about the old-fashioned in-home food pantry and why it's just common sense to have one for greater time freedom, food security, and to save yourself a LOT of money.

2nd half-hour: Before the days of electricity and fast food, having a root cellar was just plain common sense. Now the old-fashioned root cellar is making a comeback with the modern form doing double-duty as a backyard storm shelter! Tony Krekeler, owner of Rainy Day Root Cellars, LLC, tells us why the one he has designed works especially well for both food security and storm safety. And there are even government grants available to help you build one!

Today's Episode: Common Sense Preparedness Part 1

Your Hosts: Sharon Iezzi (and "Billy Bob")

With the growing popularity of TV shows such as “Doomsday Preppers” it’s easy to get the idea that anyone who believes in advance preparation for possible emergencies must be some kind of weird “doom and gloomer” or political extremist. But the fact is: preparedness has always made sense and has been practiced by wise people since the beginning of time.

In this episode Sharon and “Billy Bob” discuss the how and why of common sense preparedness, focusing this week on general concepts. Next week we will begin a series of shows discussing specific things we can do right now as individuals, families and communities to become a better prepared–and freer–people.

Prepare For Freedom Episode 22: The Truth Shall Set You Free..
Clean

If someone stole your personal identity, would that restrict your freedom? Of course it would! Would you want to know the truth about what happened so that you could immediately take whatever personal and legal action was necessary to protect your remaining assets and free yourself financially from the clutches of this thief?  Of course you would! Would knowing the truth--that your identity had been stolen and there was a way to get it back, set you free? Yes, indeed!

What if someone stole your spiritual identity? What if they did such a thorough job of stealing it that you didn't even know you had one? How free would you truly be? Would you even be aware that something was wrong?

Meet Jonathan Gray: well-known New Zealand archaeologist, prolific author, and much sought-after international speaker. This is the man who has the "goods" on the Bible--the REAL goods--not the "debunking" drivel people hear and read all the time in the media.

Jonathan shares some of his amazing findings as an archaeologist that led to his discovering the truth about the Bible, the true meaning of the constellations of the Zodiac, and what the ancient messages contained therein mean for us today as more people become increasingly aware that something IS wrong but aren't yet sure what to do about it.

He also discusses how his research into biblical archaeology completely changed his whole view of the "Jesus" story, and what this story means for us now, in our day, along with the message of hope that it brings.

"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free." (John 8:32)

Today's Episode: Voluntary Simplicity

Your Hosts: Sharon Iezzi (and "Billy Bob")

If you’re addicted to conspicuous consumption, the idea of "voluntary simplicity" will take some getting used to. But if you really want to be free, and take back control of your life, and if you are determined to do it, there IS a way. How? Simplify!

Today we welcome Ivee and Lou, two "ordinary" people who are beginning their journey to a simpler and more fulfilling way of life that allows them to live and work with their fellow human beings in a more natural state of harmony and balance with each other and with their environment. The journey to voluntary simplicity isn't easy because it means un-learning a lot of things we've been taught about our world that are untrue and significantly lessening our dependence on a failing monetary system, but the rewards for doing so are true personal freedom and control over our lives.
