E214: An EMP Attack on the United States with Author Cal Wilson
In this episode, we sit down with Cal Wilson. He’s an attorney by day and a prepper author by night. We discuss his new book about an EMP attack and life afterward. If you think this is just another EMP book, you may be in for a surprise. Tigers and Gorillas included at no extra charge.
EMPs (Electro Magnetic Pulses) is now and have been for a while, hot Prepper topics. EMPs as an antagonist are in many ways like Zombies: A perfect villain with all the pitfalls needed to scare the crap out of you. And they present a wonderland of problems to contend with.
But, unlike Zombies, EMPs are this side of catastrophes that are possible. The technology, will, and opportunity exists.
Most of the serious and balanced minds in prep have long since considered an EMP to be an outlier scenario, however. While the tech and will exists, the technological hurdles have long been considered too great for most aggressors.
Cal Wilson sides with William R. Forstchen and others. And he shows us all the ways an EMP attack isn’t just possible, but probably, in his latest work: E.M.P.: The End Of The Grid As We Know It (All At Once Book 1)
