    The Original Crew: Dale and Lisa Goodwin | Changing Earth Podcast Ep 498

    Dale and Lisa Goodwin are back on the Changing Earth Podcast. They were some of my very first guests more than a decade ago, back when they hosted The Survivalist Prepper, and this reunion felt like family walking back through the door. We catch up on where they are now, including Dale's Bug Out Location YouTube channel and Lisa's DIY Diva work. Then we get into the real stuff. AI spam drowning out people who have actually done the work. What mature prepping looks like once the panic fades and the lifestyle takes over. Car kits, EVAC plans, and storing food you will actually eat. Dale's well transfer switch, EcoFlow setup, and solar goals. Two weeks without power after a major storm hit while they were at Prepper Camp, and how water became the hardest piece until auxiliary power for the well changed the game. The Prepper Camp community cutting roads with chainsaws so a pregnant neighbor could get out. Chicken coop lessons from Texas heat, fire ants, metal feed bins, concrete floors, and diatomaceous earth. Plus a few practical gift ideas before the holidays. Chin Gibson is back with me for this one. Come sit with the original crew. Dream. Survive. Thrive. Listen at ChangingEarthSeries.com.

    Venezuela Double Earthquake: Real Lessons for The Great Quake & How to Prepare

    On June 24, 2026, Venezuela was rocked by a devastating double earthquake — a 7.2 followed just 39 seconds later by a 7.5. This real-world event gives us a powerful look at what happens when infrastructure fails and governments are forced into national triage. In this episode, we break down the lessons from Venezuela and how they apply to The Great Quake scenario in our series. We also cover practical, hands-on preparedness steps you can take right now — from building a solid bedside kit to neighborhood CERT response priorities. Because when systems go down, preparedness isn't fear-based… it's love in action. Download the free preparedness handout at ChangingEarthSeries.com.

    Mike Toberer, founder of Mission Mules and owner of Mountain Mule Packers, joins us to share how pack mules have been used to deliver critical supplies in real disasters. After Hurricane Helene devastated Western North Carolina, Mike and his team took mules into areas where roads had collapsed and no vehicles could reach. He shares powerful stories from the ground, including the heartbreaking loss of several mules and how Samaritan's Purse stepped in to help them continue the mission. We also discuss the team's work in Texas after major flooding, where they supported river recovery crews and began exploring new ways to combine mules with drones and communications for future responses. Mike also talks about their international deployment to Jamaica, where they delivered and set up a large-scale water filtration system. This episode is filled with real-world lessons on low-tech resilience, faith in action, community response, and practical preparedness strategies.
