Talking Practical Survival and Prepping Skills with Patrick Diedrich of Recoil Off Grid

Slow down, think clearly, and prepare in a practical manner. Episode Summary In this episode of The Gun Experiment, my co-host Big Keith and I sit down with Patrick Diedrich, the editorial content director for Recoil Off Grid magazine. We dive deep into the world of survival and preparedness, drawing on Patrick’s background in military reconnaissance, wilderness search and rescue, and hands-on survival training. From lessons learned in third-world countries and disaster zones to practical advice for urban survival, Patrick shares how preparation and clear-headed thinking matter far more than exotic gear or panic-driven plans. We discuss common survival myths, essential skills everyone should learn, and how to stay prepared without going overboard. Call to Action 1. Join our mailing list: Thegunexperiment.com 2.

Modern Gun Trade School: For those wanting a deeper understanding of guns and gunsmithing, MGS.edu offers hands-on courses for aspiring professionals and enthusiasts alike. Key Takeaways Survival is mostly about mindset: slow down, stop and think before reacting. Physical fitness and basic skills (shelter, fire, water) are the true foundation of preparedness. Urban survival can resemble jungle survival—be observant and make choices carefully. Practical gear like a Bic lighter, water filter, and navigation tools often outweigh romanticized survival skills. Creativity and adaptability in the moment matter even more than experience.

About The Gun Experiment

We experiment with concepts in guns, gear and training; all while having conversations about interesting things, with interesting people. Yes, we will talk about guns, but not just guns because humans weren’t meant to be one dimensional. The gun is merely a tool and we believe the person is the true weapon. We want to explore different ways to make this “weapon” better in mind, body and spirit. Experiment...everyday. Access more episodes, subscribe, and learn more.
