🚨 Prepping Isn’t Just for Doomsday, It’s for Right Now! 🚨

With political chaos peaking in the U.S.—ICE raids, Trump drama in LA & NY, and whispers of civil unrest—you might want to do more than just scroll. Enter Derrick James, the OG prepper and founder of SHTF Blog, in the latest episode of Are We Fckd? with Lisa Camillo.

His tip for total newbies? Don’t spiral into apocalypse fantasies. Start with a threat assessment: Are you in a flood zone? Laid off recently? Living paycheck to paycheck? Prepping isn’t just bunkers and bullets—it’s about real-life, realistic threats like job loss, power outages, or a winter storm that knocks your lights out for a week.

So how do you start? With the basics: food, water, security, communication, and health. Build your base, and THEN get wild with the bunker plans if you must. 😎

With the U.S. teetering politically and environmentally, being prepped isn’t paranoia—it’s smart. This episode is your sassy but practical crash course.

🧠 Now streaming on Spotify & YouTube—because knowing where to start might just save your ass later. 💥
