202-"Get Yourself a 30-Footer and Go!" How To Build a Lifestyle of Freedom Through Sailing, Self-Publishing, and TEOTWAWKI Escape Plans: Interview with Matthew Bracken, Author of "Enemies Foreign and Domestic

My guest today is a author named Matthew Bracken. Matthew is a sailor, writer, and former Navy Seal. He's the author of four novels (all of which I've thoroughly enjoyed.)

Most importantly for our purposes, he is an expert on the topic of achieving a lifestyle of freedom through sailing.

He wrote an excellent essay called "Get Yourself a 30-Footer and Go!" which advocates a quick entry into the sailing world as a way to build economic opportunity for yourself.

During the course of the interview, we cover three primary topics:

1. How to go about getting started in sailing and how quickly it's possible to achieve a lifestyle of freedom.
2. Matt's experience establishing himself as an independent, self-published novelist in the semi-dystopian genre.
3. The potential impact of societal changes and how to prepare for them.

Enjoy the show!
