80 Greatest Hits - Everyone Gets a Glock

80 Greatest Hits - Everyone Gets A Glock
Ben Malisow and Robin Cabe

Sorry, folks-- we're still hurricane refugees at the moment, so we don't have our podcasting equipment. This is a great time to catch up on one of our classic episodes, "Everyone Gets A Glock," about the personal security implications of responsible gun ownership. Check it out!

79. Greatest Hits - Prepping

This week, we are on hiatus while we avoid Hurricane Ida and preserve our own most precious assets (our asses, and those of our pets). This is a perfect time to catch up on past episodes of “The Sensuous Sounds Of INFSOEC”…and what better time to revisit our show on prepping for disaster? We promise— as soon as we’ve stabilized, we’ll feature a show about our own experiences and lessons learned.

In this episode, we prepare for the endtimes through personal continuity and disaster recovery, and nerd out on some truly great media.

Just a few of the books, movies, and TV mentioned (or associated with this topic):

  • Dawn of the Dead (George A. Romero, 1978)

  • Chernobyl (HBO, 2019)

  • The War Game (Peter Watkins, 1966: not to be confused with the 1983 classic WarGames)

  • Night of the Comet (Thom Eberhardt, 1984)

  • Cast Away (Robert Zemeckis, 2000)

  • Empire of the Sun (Steven Spielberg, 1987)

  • Firefly (Joss Whedon, 2002-2003: should have been 6 seasons and a movie)

  • Serenity (Joss Whedon, 2005: at least we got the movie)

  • Deadwood (HBO, 2004-2006)

  • The Road, Cormac McCarthy

  • Z for Zachariah, Robert C. O’Brien (THE BOOK— not the terrible movie that threw in some horrible racial overtones and a love triangle for no reason)

  • Lucifer’s Hammer, Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle

  • Lord of the Flies, William Golding

  • To Build a Fire, Jack London

  • Day of the Triffids, John Wyndham

  • On The Beach, Nevil Shute
