About the Podcast

Fireside Freedom Podcast

A weekly roundtable fanning the flames of freedom.

We’ve put together a great group of content creators for a weekly livestream/podcast to “chat around the fire” about topics that might just interest you: homesteading, prepping, liberty, self-reliance, DIY, gettin' stuff done. It’s real people talking about real life and trying to figure out how to really fix something, whether that's someone's common life/homestead/whatever issue we bring to the table that week, or some big current event issue that everyone in the world is discussing.

Brian Aleksivich

Brian Aleksivich built and operated Happy Hills Homestead with his wife Kori from 2014-2021. They have decided to get out of the cold of Minnesota and hit the road looking for a better climate to restart their homesteading life. Brian retrofitted a camper to be completely off-grid and has also started an initiative called The LOTS Project. The goal of The LOTS Project is to build an online space where a federation of landowners can interact with a network of zero and low impact campers. He hopes for big things from this project. You might also hear him mention his 3 giant dogs. His wife Kori runs a social media account for their 3 St. Bernards. You can find all of it at the links below.
