HS 309 – FBF – “Survivors” with Author and Survivalist James Wesley Rawles

Today’s Flash Back Friday takes us to Episode 72, from January 2012.

In this episode, Jason Hartman talks with James Wesley Rawles about his book, Survivor: A Novel of the Coming Collapse. While the book may be a fictional post-apocalyptic thriller, James provides a picture of what life could be like for the unprepared should life as we know it come to an abrupt end. The two discuss the possibilities, and consequences, of such horrific incidents as all three power grids going down across the country, the raiding of grocery stores (who no longer keep stock in the back of the store), the lack of clean water, and the high possibility of rioting in larger cities.

James reminds people about the need to pick carefully where they’re going to live, emphasizing the need for access to clean water and water filters.
