This Valentine’s Day edition of https://FixItRadio.com blends practical home advice with bigger-picture insights every homeowner should hear. John Rush and Steve Horvath tackle winter watering during dry months, explaining why trees, shrubs, and lawns still need attention—even when temperatures fluctuate. How do you protect your landscaping without risking frozen lines, and why does it matter more than you think? The conversation then shifts to one of the most overlooked homeowner topics: what actually devalues a home. From bad neighbors and changing neighborhoods to mismatched remodels, John explains how well-intended upgrades—like basement finishes or tub-to-shower conversions—can quietly hurt resale value if they don’t match the rest of the house. When is a renovation an investment, and when is it just money you’ll never get back? Listeners also get an inside look at the real cost of development, zoning, and city approvals. Why do new homes take years to build before construction even begins? How do regu

What happens if help can’t reach you for minutes, hours, or even days? In this episode of https://Ready-Radio.com, host John Rush dives deep into medical preparedness, asking the questions most people avoid until it’s too late. If hospitals are overwhelmed, pharmacies are empty, and the power is out, would you know how to stop bleeding, manage infection, or stabilize an injury long enough to survive? John walks listeners through real-world scenarios—from EMP-style outages to everyday emergencies—highlighting how quickly bleeding becomes fatal, why most homes lack proper trauma gear, and which medical supplies truly matter when systems fail. He challenges listeners to rethink first-aid kits, rethink medications, and rethink personal responsibility. Do you have tourniquets, compression bandages, and the right over-the-counter meds? Do you rely on prescriptions—and if so, how long could you last without refills? The conversation also explores hydration, travel readiness, and medication storage, including pract

Drive Radio: The Extra Mile pulls back the curtain on what really happens after an accident—and why so many drivers unknowingly leave thousands of dollars on the table. Host John Rush is joined by Burke Payne (https://www.bpautoappraisals.com/), who explains how insurance valuations often fall short, especially for total losses and diminished-value claims. Are computer algorithms and rushed settlements quietly costing you money? And why are middle-of-the-road daily drivers sometimes hit harder than classics or exotics? Burke walks listeners through how total-loss valuations work, why direct deposits can lock you into a bad deal, and how invoking the appraisal clause shifts the battle away from the car owner and onto an expert who understands the system. The conversation then dives into diminished value—why a perfectly repaired vehicle is still worth less the moment an accident appears on its history, and when it’s worth fighting back. The hour wraps with a candid look at the classic and collector car market

This episode of https://FixItRadio.com pulls back the curtain on one of the most expensive—and misunderstood—parts of homeownership: your roof. Host John Rush is joined by Dave Hart of Roof Savers of Colorado (https://roofsaversco.com/) and insurance expert Paul Leuenberger (https://www.americannational.com/agent?s=paulleuenberger-683) for a candid discussion on roofing, insurance, and personal responsibility. The conversation challenges the old mindset of “wait for a hailstorm and file a claim.” With deductibles rising, ACV policies becoming the norm, and insurers tightening requirements, listeners are shown why preventative maintenance may now be the smartest financial move. What actually happens when shingles dry out? Can roofs be preserved instead of replaced? And how do insurance claims today follow you for years? The episode also exposes the risks of storm chasers, rushed claims, and misleading inspections—along with how homeowners can protect themselves before making costly mistakes. From RoofMax tr

What does it really mean to be ready—not just at home, but everywhere you go? In this episode of https://Ready-Radio.com, host John Rush is joined by Pastor Bill Anderson of https://www.prep2protectco.com for a deep, practical conversation on everyday carry, situational awareness, and real-world preparedness. They explore how complacency creeps in during routine days and travel, why seasonal changes matter, and how mindset often matters more than gear. From flying and hotel safety to medical readiness on the road, they unpack the small decisions that can prevent big problems—before you ever need self-defense tools. What should you carry when you can’t carry everything? How fast could you move if something went wrong? Are your habits repeatable under stress? The discussion shifts from travel to daily life, diving into constant carry, holster choice, firearm retention, and why training must reflect how you actually live—not how you perform at the range. They challenge listeners to rethink routines, question a

Is this really a Prius… or something else entirely?

Is It a Truck… or Is It a Car? and Does It Actually Deliver?

Cold weather exposes every weakness—both in vehicles and drivers—and in this episode of https://Drive-Radio.com: The Extra Mile, John Rush cuts through winter driving myths with real-world experience and hard-earned advice. How long should you really warm up your car? Does it matter if you drive gas, diesel, hybrid, or EV? And are today’s “experts” giving advice that actually helps—or quietly causes damage? John breaks down smart warm-up practices, explaining why temperature, engine type, and even listening to your vehicle matter more than rigid rules. He walks through diesel-specific essentials like glow plugs, block heaters, and fuel anti-gel additives—mistakes here can leave you stranded for hours. EVs and hybrids get their own reality check too, including why cold weather quietly cuts electric range far more than most drivers expect. The episode shifts from engines to the road itself, with practical winter driving tips drawn from a snowy late-night ride home. Why do jerky movements cause trouble on ice?
