- Dont Drink and Podcast
Hey guys, this is our first podcast (well it will be a podcast later). I haven’t made an account on iTunes yet so you will have to listen to it here of download it (Right click “Download” and select ‘Save Target As’ or ‘Save Link As’).
In our first episode of the Death Valley Podcast I talk about some of our most popular articles. This is an experiment to see if people are interested in hearing a podcast version or Death Valley mag or if they run away screaming after listening to my drunken ramblings for an hour.
Also I am sorry if the audio sucks, I used the built in microphone on my laptop, if people like our podcast I will buy a decent mike – if not I will spend the money on booze. So you will need to turn up your volume to the max, sorry guys.
So let us know if you like our podcast in the comments below

- Tom Brown’s City and Suburban Survival and The SAS Urban Survival Guide – One Isn’t Worth The Paper Its Printed On
Urban Survival is by far my favorite survival subject and out of all my skills, it is the only one where I consider myself consonantly proficient (well, that and binge drinking). Most of what I know is a combination of self learning, the classroom and practical experience living in Urban Hostile Environments around the world.
I know in the grand scope of Urban Survival skills I still have a ton to learning to do – there isn’t a single subject in survival or any other life skill that can’t be modified, studied or improved upon until it eventually becomes instinct.
So in the interest of filling up the watermelon I call a head with more Urban Survival knowledge I picked up the 2 most popular and widely available Urban Survival books on the market; Tom Brown’s City and Suburban Survival and The SAS Urban Survival Guide.
These books were written by two of the top “gurus” in the wilderness survival field; Tom Brown Jr. and John “Lofty” Wiseman. One was pretty good despite going off subject a bit and the other sucked mad balls.

- Now That’s a Big Damn Beetle
After resisting goggles for like 10 years (they mess with my depth perception) I was left with no choice but to buy a pair when my job changed and I had to take Blackhawk chopper rides 10 times a week.
Up until then my Oakley M frame hybrids were fine for protecting my eyes from wind on the occasional Blackhawk ride, but after getting stuck with the rear right-hand side seat a few times my old Oakley’s just weren’t up to snuff anymore.
So as usual I hit up the PX and picked up a pair of ESS Profile NVG’s, I didn’t choose this brand for any particular reason, it was the only brand they had.
ESS says in their catalog that the Profile NVG were designed with input from the SF community. But every gear vendor says that, so take it with as much a grain of salt as you do when you hear a tactical instructor says he “Trained Navy SEALS”.
