An EMP (Electro Magnetic Pulse) attack is one of the top three most feared catastrophes by preppers. It is reported that there will be a 90% population die off in the first year after one occurs. And that's just the start.

Arthur Bradley Ph.D., a NASA Scientist, Electrical Engineer, and Certified EMI expert drops by to tell us the truth and destroy the myths.
An episode dedicated to discussing an EMP is one of the most requested topics In The Rabbit Hole gets. But we held off on doing it all these years. The reason was this: We wanted someone who had the credentials and background to speak on the topic expertly. That required a very special person who understood the physics, math, preppers, and prepper fiction.
Note: This episode is technical. We do our best to make the EMP topic approachable for everyone. But somethings just are what they are. With that...
Let’s. Discuss. EMPs!
EMP Topics Covered and Myths Dispelled: Are EMPs a real threat or a Prepper fiction fantasy? How much of what is spread around the community about EMPs is false? The low-frequency high-destruction problem Where do EMPs and CMEs overlap and where do they differ? What are the conditions needed for an EMP to be generated and most effective? Are there nuclear bombs optimized to maximize an EMP? Are there any immediate physical dangers to people by an EMP? What are the ways a bad actor can effectively use an EMP? Can an EMP be used from an Airplane effectively? Does tinfoil really work as shielding or is best left to headwater to keep out the alien mind control waves? What will just stop working and what is a myth? Will all cars die after an EMP? Are batteries susceptible? Will it fry Solar Systems? Does the entry electric grid go down? Will a gun safe protect your electronic gun optics? Can you use a metal trashcan to protect electronics? What products and DIY projects are available to protect electronics?~ Become a supporting member here:
