    When the Grid Fails: Lessons from Real Attacks on the Homeland

    What happens when the power goes out—and it’s not an accident? In recent years, attacks on our nation’s critical infrastructure have revealed just how fragile these modern systems we all rely on really are.  When infrastructure fails, the effects cascade fast: hospitals strain, medical devices stop working, fuel pumps go offline, and public safety degrades. Civilians often suffer the most, even though they play no role in protecting these systems. In this episode, we examine real attacks on the U.S. power grid, what actually happened on the ground, how some plots were detected and stopped, and what these incidents reveal about risk, preparedness, and resilience. We’ll also explore what you can realistically do—without paranoia or vigilantism—to recognize warning signs, respond during outages, and reduce second-order effects when systems fail. So, pull up a chair and sit a spell as we talk about When the Grid Fails: Lessons from Real Attacks Nation's Infrastructure.

    Defiance of Doom: The Germanic Hero

    What does it mean to be a warrior when the odds are not in your favor and even the world seems to have turned its back on you? Welcome to the world of the heroes in Northern European myth. The divine heroes Beowulf, Sigurd, and Starkadr and the Germanic warriors who venerated them, lived in a world of stark extremes, where courage, honor, and strength were tested at every turn. Their stories weren’t just entertainment; they were guides for living boldly in a harsh and uncertain world. While we no longer live in these warrior cultures of the past, those of us attempting to walk this path in the modern world still face the same eternal questions: How do you live knowing that everything you love will one day die?How do you act with honor in a world no longer believes in it?How do you continue to fight when you feel as though the battle cannot be won?This is the world these warriors inhabited, and through their deeds, their trials, and their defiance, we find answers to the timeless questions of how to live, act, and fight with honor today. So, strap in and get ready for a wild ride through the world of the Germanic Hero.  It's all in this episode of the Pearl Snap Tactical Podcast!

    3 Tactical Mantras That Will Keep You Alive

    In this episode, we explore three timeless combat principles that separate those who survive from those who don’t — principles built around movement, coordination, and security. These simple but powerful rules have been passed down through generations of soldiers and protectors because they work, both on the battlefield and in everyday life. We’ll break down how to stay mobile and unpredictable under pressure, how to coordinate fire and movement to end a threat quickly, and why security isn’t just a tactical step — it’s a mindset that frames every action before, during, and after the fight. Whether you’re a professional in the field or a civilian dedicated to protecting your family, this episode shows how these battlefield fundamentals can guide you through crisis, chaos, and uncertainty.

    The Greek Hero: the Quest Beyond Human Limits

    Every culture has its heroes, but for the ancient Greeks, the hero wasn’t just a man who fought bravely or achieved great things. He was something far greater. He was a mortal who strained against the limits of what it meant to be human. The hero stood in that dangerous space between man and god, where strength, passion, and fate collided. In this episode, we’re going to explore the figure of the Greek hero, not as myth or metaphor, but as a model for how to live and fight with purpose in a world that’s forgotten both.  Grab your spear and tighten your helmet cords because this one will challenge the way your see the world and your place in it!

This episode gives you the tools to plan a civilian convoy the right way: routes, timing, vehicle roles, comms, and how to keep your group moving when everyone else is stuck.  If you think convoy operations are just for the military or private military contractors, think again.  Real-world lessons.

    Becoming Unbreakable

    What does it mean to be unbreakable? In this episode, we explore the heroic mindset found in myth, philosophy, and warrior tradition. Drawing from a particular story from the Viking Age, we’ll uncover how ancient lessons can guide us in building resilience, honor, and strength in a modern world that seeks to weaken men. This is about more than survival, it’s about becoming unbreakable. This is a deeper riff off the previous episode I did with John Michael Greer on operationalizing myth.  You can listen to that one first if you need some more background on the topic, or not.  This episode can stand on its own.
