Welcome to Failure to Prepare
Hello everyone and welcome to the channel, the idea behind this channel is to prepare, and my observations as to what’s going on in the world and country. My main goal with this channel is to share knowledge and help others if I can.
Failure to prepare is preparing to fail, which is why I wanted to start this channel and with any luck, help some folks out in the process through self-reliance and basic knowledge.
Please do not infer anything from this channel as life instruction, medical advice, legal advice, or any advice of any type. If you get yourself hurt, purchase crazy things outside of your budget, or just doing something asinine, you only have yourself to blame and not this channel.
Anything expressed here is my opinion, taken from my experience via two separate careers, where nothing was given to me, and everything I have, I earned, typically through hard work and determination and the will to succeed and survive.
I do not advocate doing anything that is considered illegal or stupid for that matter. What is SHTF? It is when “Shit hit’s the fan” when life as you know it turns upside down, it could be from an EMP pulse, a war, a natural disaster, or even something as far fetched as a pandemic.

Episode 38: Questions about the Nashville incident
Hello and welcome to Failure to Prepare! Your source for all things paranoid!
What is the purpose of this video you might ask? Myself and Mrs. Failure to prepare have been watching some recent things that have happened in the country, all of which might or might not be connected to the bomb RV in Nashville. Now please keep in mind this is all speculation, of one might have nothing to do with the other, but you never know right. Websters defines a diversion, at least the part I want to use, as an attack or feint that draws the attention and force of an enemy from the point of the principal operation.

Episode 45: Feed Your Defensive Options
Hello and welcome to Failure to Prepare! Your source for all things paranoid!
This will be a quick video on my attempt to assist you, in feeding your defensive options, or as other preppers say, freedom seeds for your boomsticks.
Now I have to give credit where credit is due, I originally got this information from another site I watch, called Sensible Prepper, who seems to be a like-minded guy, who also just wants to help people out. Please like and subscribe to his channel as well, because if I miss something, I am sure you will find it on his site, he has been around for a bit.
I will say this site is easy to use, and I have used it with no issues. Here is a quick rundown of the site.

Episode 36: 4Patriots Solar Kettle Review
Hello and welcome to Failure to Prepare! Your source for all things paranoid!
What is the purpose of this video you might ask? Myself and Mrs. Failure to prepare wanted to bring to the prepping community, a possible reliable option for heating water, for long term situations with no access to fuels or gasses. Mrs. Prepper found the 4Patriots Solar Kettle, and I agreed as she did, in theory, this was a pretty good idea. Now please keep in mind, this was our second attempt using both Kettle’s, the first time was in full, continuous sunlight, at approximately 5331 feet above sea level, and at higher elevations, the sun is typically more intense. The second test that I filmed, was overcast, which was today, so you can’t say this was done incorrectly, because in full sun for approximately 2+ hours, during the previous test, the was warm and not hot or boiling, today's test left the water as cold as when we put it in the tube.
Now my FTP disclaimer: Guys I honestly don’t like giving bad reviews, but I am not going to lie to you guys, if I spend my hard-earned money, especially in this unstable economy, for gear or equipment, I think I should be able to count on it, right? And so should you!
And if I find something that does a great job, like 100 mile an hour tape, I will let you know, if I find something that doesn’t do what it claims, or looks like it could break if someone with the “Rona” sneezes on it, I will let you know that too!

Episode 10 Getting healthier in tough times.
In this episode, we will cover Getting Healthier in tough times, and believe me, tough times are coming.
What is the purpose of this video you might ask, it is to make you consider your most valuable and important point in preparedness, your health, and your family's health.
What is the point of having water, food, protection, and energy generation preps, if you are morbidly obese, have type II diabetes, and you can’t walk around the block without sitting down on the curb and clutching your chest? Many people always consider what material things they need to survive, but do not take into consideration, the cornerstone of being healthy, in order to be able to be around to use and or protect your preparations and loved ones. Everyone remembers the first rule of Zombieland….

Episode 55 Pathfinder Kingmaker Game Review
Hello and welcome to Failure to Prepare! Your source for all things paranoid!
EXPERIMENTAL VIDEO TYPE, VIEW AT YOUR OWN RISK!
In this episode, we will cover mine and Mrs. Failure to Prepares ideas regarding stress relief during these troubled times, which is a follow-up to my Previous Pathfinder Kingmaker, game review.
What is the purpose of this video you might ask? Myself and Mrs. Failure to prepare wanted to bring to the prepping community, a possible option for stress relief. But as with anything addictive, use in moderation with exercise and healthy living. This is an intro to Pathfinder Kingmaker which came out in September of 2018.
This will mostly be an adlibbed video, and I apologize about the game sound if it’s low, or if the video looks kind of crappy. But I will do my best to explain as we go through.
Pathfinder: Kingmaker - Enhanced Plus Edition is the first isometric party-based computer RPG set in the Pathfinder fantasy universe. Enjoy a classic RPG experience inspired by games like Baldur's Gate, Fallout 1 and 2 and Arcanum. Explore and conquer the Stolen Lands and make them your kingdom!
This will be mainly character creation, and initial gameplay, which will involve party creation, depending on the choices you make, this will affect what NPC’s (non-player characters) that will be willing to come with you or not… So on to character creation and so on.
As I say a lot in my videos: having gear and prep’s is one thing, but if you can’t go around the block with it, without having a coronary, what is the purpose of being prepared at all? We all need to decompress, just do it in a healthy way, and love your family and friends while you're doing so, don’t hold it all in and explode!
Also please keep in mind in case this platform cracks down on me, I am also on Rumble and WeMe. So here we go:

Mrs. Failure to Prepare and I discussed some home security options, this one, in particular, is Solar Security lights, with motion sensors, that we have had around the house for approximately one to three years in length. The batteries have held charges this entire time, and I have not had to replace any of the components or batteries on six sensors I have installed around the house.

Episode 53: Tarp setup options
Hello and welcome to Failure to Prepare! Your source for all things paranoid! Coming to you proudly from the ghetto low budget, Failure to Prepare studios. If you guys don’t mind in the comments, remind me to buy some duct tape to hold my camera in place for these videos, I am almost out.
Mrs. Failure to Prepare and I discussed some “Get Home Bag” tarp options, I found a 10’ x 10’ tarp, called the ODSE rain fly hammock tent tarp. What I liked about it, mainly was the price of $24.99 and what it came with. One side appeared to be reflective, which if that is the case, would be helpful in retaining heat. It also comes with six stakes and six guidelines, and tie off loops around the tarp. We are supposed to possibly get some snow or rain tomorrow, so I am going to leave it up in the weather just to see how it does. I am going to try a couple of different configurations of this tent, and video them for you to check out. The first setup I will use is what some people call the envelope, it has a floor, and shelters in one direction from rain and the wind, you can secure it using trees, or other objects, but I choose to simulate not have these options and used trekking poles instead. One thing I also like about this setup is you can have a small fire that will radiate heat into the tarp.
I am not going to rate this tarp at this time, because I currently have no experience using it, other than simple setup.
Also please keep in mind in case this platform cracks down on me, I am also on Rumble and WeMe. So here we go:

Hello and welcome to Failure to Prepare! Your source for all things paranoid!
In this episode, I will go for a run with you guys, testing a new Akaso Brave 4 Camera on a favorite run of mine. Let's get in shape folks!
This was an experimental video, not knowing how the camera would work, I used a standard headset that you can buy for the Akaso, after watching many videos with people uses an arm rig, a chest rig, and an extendable pole rig, I liked the headset rig the best, especially in the interest of keeping my identity safe.
