  Mark Koernke discussed a New Hampshire child protective services case involving two boys still in foster care after their sister was abused, despite both parents being cleared of wrongdoing. He provided contact information for state officials and judges to demand the children's return. The bulk of the episode focused on Quartermaster Friday preparedness topics, including home food production (canning, freezing, and drying berries and fruits), making fruit leathers, growing and storing root vegetables through winter, and making inexpensive soups from dried peas and potatoes. Callers and co-hosts discussed textile production skills including knitting, crocheting, spinning wool, and using vintage sewing machines for self-sufficiency. The conversation also covered CPS financial incentives for child removal, background check requirements for school employees, and the loss of American textile manufacturing.
