If you're wondering what an EMP is and whether you should investigate it, this podcast is for you. If you think this doesn't pertain to you, let me ask you if you feel like your appliances or electronics aren't lasting as long as they used to. It could be due to small electrical power surges coming into your home every day, overtaxing those appliances!
