Eric took us on a journey through his incredible experiences, shedding light on everything from the essential cold weather gear to the seasonal air density changes, the potential of altitude sickness, and how your body’s chemistry reacts to the bone-chilling cold when you’re literally sitting on top of 2 miles of ice at the South Pole Station.

Taking Care of the
“What Ifs” of Life.
“I don’t consider us a quote-unquote “prepper show.” I consider us a show to handle the what-ifs of life. And that could be everything from, yes, a global disaster or a simple bike crash, a car accident, or you fall on the ice. I mean, there’s all sorts of things that come along that create a crisis, and I want to give people a way to prevent those and or handle them when they come along.” – John Rush
