I have no doubt the speaker is very knowledgable about search and rescue and short-term survival techniques. And some useful information was conveyed. It is just a shame he was so disorganized and ill-prepared. He bounced all over the place, couldn't find anything, got way off track, and ended up failing to cover his stated subject. Although he gave some useful tips, we still don't know all the items he packs in his survival kit or how to effectively use them.

Glycogen is the storage form of glucose that's needed by the central nervous system as fuel. Your brain turns burns glucose for energy, excess is converted to glycogen which fuels you through the day, and amounts ingested in excess of that are converted to fat. So he was wrong to say that the foods contained glycogen, but correct to say your brain burns it.
