#60 - Snow and Ice Can Destroy Your Life

In this live episode of the Fairview Social Podcast, the crew jumps on Facebook for the first time to talk through the chaos of the 2026 winter ice storm that knocked out power across Middle Tennessee. What starts as storm talk quickly turns into classic Fairview banter — frozen pipes, 37-degree houses, generator regrets, hotel stays with dogs, propane heaters, and cooking steaks in the fireplace.

The guys swap stories about losing power, scrambling for supplies, sleeping under piles of blankets, and realizing just how dependent modern life is on electricity and internet. From there, the conversation expands into bigger questions: Are we actually prepared for real emergencies? What would happen if things truly shut down long-term? Is it crazy to think like a “prepper,” or just responsible?

They also dive into power company communication, NES vs. Middle Tennessee Electric, generator setups, fiber internet debates, and how community (and humor) matters when things go sideways.

It’s part storm recap, part survival talk, part technology rant — and completely unfiltered.
