In this episode, I sit down with Pete Robertucci, a retired firefighter and paramedic who has transitioned into the world of dystopian fiction. Pete shares his unique journey from working at the Kennedy Space Center to becoming a full-time author. We explore what drove him to get into emergency medical services, the impact of 9/11 on his career choice, and how living in Florida’s hurricane-prone environment naturally led him down the path of preparedness.

Pete talks about his evolution from being a “closet prepper” to embracing preparedness, especially after experiencing the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. We dive into the significance of building a mutual assistance group and the challenges of finding trustworthy, like-minded people to form your inner circle.

Pete also discusses his writing process, how his daughter’s encouragement pushed him to publish his first book and the importance of community in preparedness and writing. We wrap up the conversation by discussing Peter’s latest book, Birchwood Burning, from his North of Eden series and the underlying themes that resonate with readers.

Key Topics Discussed:

  • Pete’s journey from electrical contractor to firefighter and paramedic
  • The impact of 9/11 on Pete’s career choice
  • How living in Florida sparked an interest in preparedness
  • Transitioning from being a “closet prepper” to a preparedness advocate
  • The importance of community and building a mutual assistance group
  • Challenges in finding trustworthy people for your preparedness group
  • Pete’s writing journey and the role his daughter played in it
  • Insights into Pete’s new book Birchwood Burning and the North of Eden series

Quotable Moments:

  • “A lone wolf is a dead wolf. You’re not going to do everything by yourself.”
  • “The world around him can burn to the ground as long as his tribe, his compound is safe.”
  • “If somebody gets a little nugget of information from my book, or it made them think about something that would help them prepare or keep their family safe, it made everything worthwhile.”

Who Should Listen: This episode is perfect for anyone interested in preparedness, fans of dystopian fiction, and those curious about the transition from a high-stakes profession to a creative career. It’s particularly aimed at listeners who are looking for practical insights into building resilience and community in uncertain times.
