  • Death Rolls, Dead Reckoning & Drive-Thru Disasters
    Jun 16 2025

    Broadcasting from 4,200 feet in the Oregon high desert, Sam Wilson—“the voice of Chytown” and host of the MOA (Make It Out Alive) broadcast—delivers another wild ride through the week’s most unbelievable stories and practical survival tips.

    In this episode, Sam dives into the latest mayhem: a tourist in the Philippines mauled by a crocodile after mistaking it for a statue, machete attacks, and a lunchtime road rage showdown in Pittsburgh that escalates into a SWAT standoff. He also covers a tragic fast food shooting in Florida, sparked by a dispute over mayonnaise.

    But it’s not all chaos—Sam returns to one of his favorite outdoor topics: dead reckoning navigation. Learn how to use this low-tech yet powerful method to get back to where you started, whether you’re deep in the backcountry or lost in a city grid.

    Plus, hear his unapologetically hilarious take on the show Yellowstone, the absurdity of synthetic salmon, and why situational awareness—on the trail or at the taco stand—just might save your life.

  • Machetes, Mayhem and Los Angeles Burns
    Jun 8 2025

    Broadcasting from 4,200 feet in the Oregon high desert, Sam Wilson returns to the Make It Out Alive broadcast with a scorching episode of chaos, crime, and catastrophe. This week, Sam unpacks three explosive headlines tearing through America:

    First, a chef’s nightmare—an Albuquerque native becomes the second victim in a brutal machete rampage in downtown Los Angeles. Sam details the random attack that left one man dead, another maimed, and an entire city on edge.

    Next, corruption in the Sunshine State: a Florida sheriff is arrested and charged in a sprawling $21 million illegal gambling ring. What was supposed to be law enforcement turned into law evasion at the highest levels—Sam walks you through the dirty money trail.

    Finally, Los Angeles erupts—again. Protests over ICE raids devolve into rioting, looting, and literal flames across the city. With rumors of the National Guard and even the Marines stepping in, Sam separates fact from hysteria and calls it like it is.

    Also on the docket: reckless hikers in Washington may soon pay the price for putting rescuers at risk, and a spirited discussion on First Amendment auditors—citizen activists with cameras and the Constitution in their back pockets.

    From machete wounds to federal raids, this episode is raw, unfiltered, and exactly what you've come to expect from Make It Out Alive. Buckle up.
