About this listen
When disaster strikes, the last place you want to be is stuck in a line at the corner grocery. Having a backup food supply - or what doomsday preppers would call a survival or disaster pantry - is essential if you want to live through a disaster and its aftermath. What are Short Term Emergency Foods? There are long term emergency foods and there are short term emergency foods. Long term emergency foods are those that have long shelf lives and will sustain you indefinitely. These are the food items that can stay shelf-stable for a long time. Foods marketed as long term emergency foods usually come in big cans or packs and may not resemble the food that you eat on a regular basis. Short term emergency foods, meanwhile, don't last as long but will still keep you nourished while you ride out the worst of the disaster. These may include food items that you normally eat and/or favorite foods, i.e. food items that aren't necessarily long-lasting or particularly nutritious but are important because you and your family enjoy eating them.

Blokehead Self Sufficiency Review
First of all, it was short, only about an hour. Next, I felt like I was listening to a PowerPoint presentation, without the benefit of seeing the slides.
The content sometimes was almost insultingly basic, For example, he actually said the difference between short term and long term food storage is that short term food storage only lasts a short time, while long term storage lasts a longer time.
But, with all that said, I did learn a few things. If you're very new to prepping this might be a good primer for you. For all others, I wouldn't recommend it.
