Episode: Ep. 249: Begging and Pleading Redux
This book was worked on for years and aims to provide realistic, practical information on wilderness skills and survival, dispelling myths and promoting competency in the outdoors. It covers a wide range of topics, from basic packing to advanced survival techniques, and features contributions from various experts.
The release date on our new book, which is called The Meteor Guide to Wilderness, Skills and Survival, has a December 1 release date.
It is how many pages long? Counting the index, it's 435 pages long.
I view this book as being an antidote to that and resetting Wilderness Skills and Survival to a position where it is very well thought, moderate, highly skilled information sets that are passed along to you in order that you will feel more functional, capable, comfortable in the outdoors.
It is not a book that's meant to be full of crazy cockamamie bullshit. In fact, the original title, working title, was The No Bullshit Guide to Wilderness Skills and Survival.
What we're going to do here is kind of walk through what you'll find in here in order to give people a better sense of what's going on.

Brody and I just turned in a group project. Mostly turned in our Wilderness Skills and Survival book, which early estimates are that it will be around 600 pages.
Yanni's contributions in the book are so good we call them... Yanni bars.
Yanni on avalanche, Yanni on spike camps, Yanni on all manner of things.
I heard a really nice compliment about that book. So directed at you guys was that the book was very entertaining to read and story-like but was equally balanced with good skills and education.
When that book comes out, make no bones about it. I'm going to come and prepare, start saving your money and stuff like that. Because when that book comes out, we got screwed out of the bestseller list with our Fish and Game cookbook.
