Why Your Bug Out Bag Sucks Everybody loves the idea of a bug out bag, but a lot of them are built more like fantasy survival gear collections than real emergency tools. In this episode, we break down why bug out bags fail: no destination, too much weight, untested gear, bad food, weak water plans, forgotten family needs, poor communication, expired supplies, and no real decision point for when to actually leave. A good bug out bag is not supposed to help you disappear into the woods forever. It should help you leave fast, stay functional, communicate, handle basic problems, and get to the next safe place. We also run through a quick bag audit you can use to check your own setup. Stay survived.
