My first, and likely only recommendation, would be a podcast episode on "The Psychology of Survival". In every experience I've ever shared on the topic, this has been the transcendent commonality and foundation upon which all other aspects of survival flow. It is addresses the most imporant tool that we have to ensure that everything else associated with survival works; the human mind.

I would like to hear your concise, complete take on the survival mindset Doug. In all the posts and literature I've read that you've published, it is something you allude to but never completely address. I think that, more than anything else you can speak to, the mental characteristics that make suvival possible, regardless of the abundance or lack of gadgets, the severity of the environment, or the elapsed time, are paramount.

Of all that I could ask you for, or that I have invested herein towards, this seems to me to be so important that without it anything else we could discuss is trival. It is also the only survival issue of which we all share a common interest, regardless of the circumstances in which we might find ourselves.
