    Truck Guns for the Modern Survivalist with Mike Milito – Epi-3822
    Mar 26 2026
    Expert Council Member Mike Milito joins me today to discuss the concept of the truck gun, where it came from, and how it fits into modern American life. We dig into the historical roots of keeping a firearm in a vehicle, from ranch rifles and old hunting guns to the practical setups people relied on decades ago, and how those ideas have evolved. From there, we get into why someone today might consider a truck or trunk gun at all. Mike breaks down realistic use cases, not fantasy scenarios, and explains how mobility, response time, and environment all factor into … Continue reading →

    Change What You Can Change – Epi-3821
    Mar 24 2026
    Most people are familiar with “The Serenity Prayer”. This prayer was actually written by the American theologian Reinhold Niebuhr (1892–1971). The long version is seldom spoken of and it is much more what you would expect from a truly religious prayer. You can learn more about that if it interests you here. The version most know, the one on necklaces, coffee cups and used in many 12 step programs is very simple and yet very profound, even for those like myself or are non religious people, is simply states… God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot … Continue reading →

Jack truly cares and has built a community of like minded individuals that are dedicated to improving their quality of life. Survival is just a byproduct of living the best most productive life you can every day and The Survival Podcast is the embodiment of this philosophy.

“Build it and they will come”

It's not an exaggeration when the show's description says "if times get tough, or even if they don't." Host Jack Spirko doesn't have to talk about the end of the world to teach you about things that will actually make a difference in a crisis. Things like getting in better physical shape, building real relationships with your neighbors, planting a garden, or getting out of debt and starting a savings account will all improve your life today.

Jack's brand of common sense, no excuses tough love may even be more difficult for some self-proclaimed preppers than for "regular people." He's quick to point out consumerist habits that make us feel good, but don't actually help.

The show now has a panel of experts, interesting interviews, and great production value. It's improved so much over the past 13 years, starting when Jack recorded the show in his car on his way to the corporate job he had at the time.

That's right, 13 years! I think it's called The Survival Podcast because it pre-dates the term "prepper." It has certainly matured over time, and I highly recommend it. I can think of very few people I'd rather have on my side in an actual crisis, natural or man-made... or on a random Tuesday.

So Practical, You'll Forget it's About "Survival"
