Amy Talks is back for 2026 🥳 and we’re starting off with an interview featuring James Walton, Intrepid Commander of the Prepper Broadcast Network, writer and podcast host.

We discuss how people need to stick together in times of crisis, what is required for being able to stay alive during a disaster, how getting outside and learning survival skills is crucial and more.
