    Stop Guessing: The Science Behind a Thriving Colorado Garden. (2-21-26)

    Spring may feel close, but are you preparing your yard the right way — or setting yourself up for costly mistakes before planting season even begins? In this episode of https://FixItRadio.com, guest host Bill Anderson (https://www.prep2protectco.com/) is joined by gardening experts Pam and Dennis Brewster, longtime contributors familiar to listeners of both Fix It Radio and Drive Radio, for a practical, eye-opening deep dive into smarter gardening and landscape planning. As Colorado weather swings from warm spells to freezing mornings, the conversation reveals why late winter is actually the most important preparation season. When should you really prune trees? Are you cutting too much — or not enough? What simple tool mistakes can introduce disease without you realizing it? The Brewsters break down pruning timing, fruit tree shaping, propagation secrets, transplanting success, and how to turn yard cuttings into an endless supply of plants. But the real surprise? Gardening success often starts underground. Can any soil truly be improved? Is rototilling quietly destroying healthy soil biology? And why can neighbors just a mile apart get completely different results? From planning your garden layout and rotating crops to choosing plants that actually thrive in Colorado’s climate, this episode challenges listeners to rethink everything they thought they knew about spring preparation. Before you buy a single plant, ask yourself: Are you gardening harder… or gardening smarter this year?

    Prepared or Dependent? The Skills We Forgot: Why Old Ways May Save the Future. (2-20-26)

    🎙️On https://Ready-Radio.com, guest host Pastor Bill Anderson (https://www.prep2protectco.com) sits down with guest Jeff Fish, an electrician and hands-on survivalist practicing what he calls experimental archaeology — learning old-world skills by actually doing them. What begins as a discussion about butchering and sausage-making quickly expands into a powerful exploration of preparedness, self-reliance, and rediscovering knowledge our grandparents once considered ordinary life. Could raising food in small spaces, processing your own meat, or preserving harvests be the difference between dependence and resilience? Jeff shares lessons learned from hunting, livestock care, quail raising, food preservation, and practical experimentation — including failures that became the greatest teachers. The conversation challenges modern assumptions: have convenience and technology quietly erased skills we may one day desperately need? Pastor Bill reframes prepping not as fear-driven behavior, but as stewardship, community, and wisdom passed between generations. From canning and curing meat to building networks of shared knowledge, the episode asks a deeper question: Is readiness less about stockpiling — and more about rebuilding forgotten habits and relationships? If everyday people can reclaim these skills, what might change about how we live, eat, and prepare for uncertainty? And what knowledge should we be passing on before it disappears completely? This hour of Ready Radio doesn’t just talk about preparedness — it challenges listeners to rethink what being truly “ready” means.

    - THE EXTRA MILE: Fuel, Oil, and Transmission Truths Every Driver Should Know. (2-14-26)

    🎙️ Drive Radio: The Extra Mile — Additives, Myths, and Mechanical Truths What really helps your vehicle—and what’s just expensive hype? In this episode of https://Drive-Radio.com: The Extra Mile, host John Rush takes listeners deep into the world of automotive additives, separating proven maintenance from marketing myths. Are there truly “miracle” products that fix engines, boost fuel economy, or make fluids last forever? Or are some of these claims quietly costing you performance, longevity, and money? John explains why top-tier fuel matters, how inconsistent gasoline complicates diagnostics, and why buying quality fuel up front can prevent drivability issues later. He breaks down fuel additives that actually serve a purpose—and warns against pump add-ons and “repair-in-a-can” solutions that can damage engines or exhaust systems. The conversation shifts under the hood to engine oil, direct-injection engines, and cold starts, revealing why modern engines demand precise oil viscosity, regular service intervals, and high-quality filters. John also tackles common myths around extended oil change intervals and “lifetime” fluids—especially when it comes to automatic transmissions, which he describes as one giant hydraulic system that thrives on clean fluid. From fuel stability in classic cars to the real cost of deferred maintenance, this episode asks a simple question with big financial implications: Do you want to pay now—or pay later? If you want fewer surprises, lower repair bills, and a vehicle that lasts, this is an Extra Mile worth taking.
