The Survival Podcast
« on: September 20, 2013, 10:48:20 AM »
Anyone else out there listen to the survival Podcast (TSP)?

http://www.thesurvivalpodcast.com/

Interesting podcast/blog that has some overlap with some mustachian principles, mainly self sufficiency, which covers a wide variety of topics.

I would love to hear MMM be a guest on TSP, or have Jack (Host of TSP) do a guest article on MMM.  I know they would clash on many topics, but I feel they both share relatively libertarian ideals.  I think it would be an interesting conversation between them.

I occasionally listen to an episode. Jacob (of ERE fame) was a guest a while back, which is how I discovered it.

You're right, there is some overlap, but quite a few areas where there is not. Jack's main theme is being an "ant" (instead of a grasshopper), which I think MMM would agree with. But putting your 'stache in silver bullion? Not so much.

It was indeed previously brought up, but that was about a year and 1/2 ago.

I have, since the posting of that thread, forced myself to listen to lots of podcasts.  Unfortunately there is content on podcasts not available elsewhere.
I am a former teacher who accumulated a bunch of real estate, retired at 29, spent some time traveling the world full time and am now settled with three kids.
If you want to know more about me, this Business Insider profile tells the story pretty well.
I (rarely) blog at AdventuringAlong.com. Check out the Now page to see what I'm up to currently.

You say that like it's a bad thing ;). I would trade every show on TV, or my netflix subscription for more podcasts. Podcasts like
Planet Money
99% Invisibile
Partially Examined Life
The History of English
The History of Philosophy

Yes I do, because I think it is.  (See my comments in link above.)  I'd much rather that content be available in written form.  I'd trade all the video and audio for the equivalent in written word.
