History Channel: After Armageddon
Sorry this is so last minute but I just wanted to clue you guys in on the fact that the History channel will be broadcasting a show tonight called After Armageddon. It starts at 8:00pm EST and will also be on several times this week in case you can’t get to it tonight. A friend of mine, Kevin Reeve, who is the owner of the OnPoint Tactical school will be featured in it so look out for him and check out his school (I highly recommend it).
Here is the official description:
After Armageddon What have past acts of destruction taught us about what will happen to mankind after the apocalypse? Is it inevitable that disaster will someday strike America on an unprecedented level? How has history prepared us? History’s most dramatic events – Hiroshima, 9/11, Hurricane Katrina and others – are examined and analyzed with hard data gathered from their massive aftereffects. The disappearance of water and food supplies, the effects of deteriorated sanitation and health care on the remaining population, and the increased use of violence as a means of survival – all illustrate how societies have responded and survived.
Here’s the current schedule (in EST):
Tuesday, January 05 08:00 PM
Wednesday, January 06 12 am
Saturday, January 09 8 pm
Sunday, January 10 12 am
Check it out!

I watched this last night, I thought it was a pretty good show. I didn’t agree with the choices the family depicted in the show made, but that is besides the point.
I thought the best part was when they got to the “small town” and the people had the road blocked. Why is it that everybody who lives in the city has the idea that they will just go to the country or some small town? All this land is already owned and will be defended. Chances are that 99% of refugees will be turned away. I say 99% because some folks with certain skills such as doctors will be let in.
Hey Jon,
Thanks for the comments. I agree that the show was pretty good. It definitely opened my eyes to the need to develop more key “relationships” with others who have important skill sets. Also numbers provide better security. Trying to shelter-in and to defend my food and water storage by my lonesome would not be easy in this type of situation that they depicted.
