Carrying the Right Gun & Massive Book Giveaway!

Heavy, heavy, heavy is the head that wears the crown? Just day twelve, no coffee. Oh my god, the tea just ain't the same. I'll tell you what, The tea just ain't the same. Man. We got so far to go too, I want to talk today. FBI steps up monitoring of potential terror cells. A lot of people here at PBN for years we've been talking and discussing. You know, are they here? Are they not here? Is it a big thing to scare you to death? What's the deal? What is it been quiet? Barring a few things, a few things that I don't think are directly tied. But I think you know. The former assistant FBI Director Qus quis, Oh, chis how you doing? Chis Chris Sweckler. If ever there's going to be a Hesbala sell or Hamas cell act in the United States in a violent way, it's now. He goes on to say something important. This is the FBI. So this is not preper speculation. This is not me. This is not some guy who once was in the military and heard another guy coughing and burping and talking about a thing, says we know they have cells here. Both organizations are Iranian backed all the way. Both organizations have been presents in the United States since the nineteen eighties. We also know there are loan sympathizers, many of whom come out to these protests. And we've seen some of the loan sympathizers. Right, We had the product of a lah guy, remember him in Texas. He popped up out of nowhere. He also warned the border security vulnerabilities have compounded the risk. We talked about this like on end. The whole march routines built around this idea, right, and we'll talk a little bit about what's going on today on the routine. Hopefully you got the email yesterday. If you didn't, you know, reach out and let me know. If you want to kill yourself. It wasn't so bad yesterday. I mean I worked out twice yesterday actually, so I don't know. You can do it. You can do it. I have faith in all of you. You know that what happened over there, ed uh oh, look at that. That's a funny situation over there. My my new camera set up hmmm, doesn't work really good over at Instagram. I'm kind of like got got to move over a little more, all right, You can get like a piece in my head. How about that. We'll do that. That's my compromise. I'm not fixing it today, Instagram. You just have to listen to my buttery voice and enjoy it. We got a big show today, though. I did want to talk about the FBI's take on this stuff. Last night, I instructed our counter terrorism This is Cash Ptel. Okay, this is all out of a Fox News article. I can't show it to you because foxnews dot com has thirty five visual ads on it that all are spamming and blowing up and showing video and the whole thing. FBI Director Cash Betel said Saturday that counter and Terrorism and Intelligence teams are now on high alert and middle ongoing blah blah blah blah. Last night I instructed the counterteen intelligent team. That was counter terrorism and intelligence teams. I just didn't feel like saying at all, but then I had to say it anyway. Teams be on high alert and mobilize all assisting security assets needed. So the reality is they're here. My question for the that the FBI cannot answer. My question is a simple one, and it's, you know, what's their real allegiance? In other words, How good is it to be in hespalad How good is it to be in Hamas? Is it as good as it is to live in the United States of America? Right, that's the real question. The real question is is it as good to blow up this country you've lived in for years? You know? After a while, man, I think you get comfy, and you know more than j ferg you get comfy. You like this way of life. You like the HVAC systems, you like the seasonal weather, you like not having to worry about getting your hand cut off. You know, it's not bad over here in the terrible, horrible, racist, unequal United States. Not so bad, particularly when you come from the sands of Iran. Right, So all that to say, I bet the FBI knows for sure that there are people from Hesbelan Jamas here. I bet you there are people from Hesbelaha Namas here. I bet you there are proxy terrorists and terrorist groups training in the United States. Part of me thinks that it'll be time, It'll take time. There was this article was piggybacked off a Daily Mail article that I didn't read because it costs money to subscribe and screw that. So and it was something about the ghost signal from Iran on terror cells. I don't think that I'll be able to find it again. Daily Mail Iranian sleeper cells activated in US. Quote gohot signal sent from Tehran, right, but that's it. Germany warned of Iranian sleeper cells after Tehran's fatoir Oh oh oh? Is that what they did? Let's see one hour ago. We're gonna pull from some European news because the Europeans, uh, they just want you to know about their their privacy policy, but they don't kill you on like you gotta pay us to read our articles. Experts in Germany have warned, let me make sure that, yeah, that Iran linked sleeper cells could strike in Europe after a fatwah was issued by Tearan over the death of the eye Intola. Okay, great, so that's the ghost signal. Well, that happened two days ago. Grand these guys really are like like the klu klux Klan. You know that Grand Ayantola Nasir Makarem Shirazi, the Dragon Lord Wizard, issued a fatoi on March on one March, calling for holy war against the U. Okay I guess this is probably what brought the Austin guy out. This is probably what brought the other guy out with the with the with the weapons and the stabbings into this and then that about the lady in Northern Virginia who is stabbed by a guy who is put in jail thirty times? How long are we going to do this? How long we're gonna do? You put the guy in jail thirty times? What's up? Fall at firewoof Forge? You put the guy in jail thirty times, but you keep letting them out. What's the game plan for? We need a game plan? I feel like ten arrests. You need a game plan for a guy who's got ten arrests? Is it that hard? How hard is it? Raise your hand? Have you been arrested one time? Chat room? Have you been arrested once? I'd love to have a live studio audience right now, so everybody stand up, all right, sit down. If you've been arrested one time, sit down. If you've been arrested five times, you know what I mean? To be arrested thirty times? Like you have to. This is a concerted effort, right, It's not something that happened. Oh, another bad day? Right? Oh? My luck. It's a concerted effort to be a monster in society. Sorry, you hit the limit, my man. We gave you twenty nine shots at freedom. You suck at this. Right, it's time to be locked up for a while. Now, I let them out on the street, right, Equality tolerance, Eh, doesn't matter. Poor lady man, poor family, you know what I mean. I don't even know how they deal with it. They're not gonna deal with it. I'm telling you that right now it's gonna be. They're not gonna deal with it. People aren't gonna deal with this shit forever. I'm telling you that. You can listen to me or not, but I'm telling you right now, they're not gonna deal with it. There's no way humanity Americans, gun owning Americans can watch the women and the children and even the men get shot and killed by people who have been arrested fifty five thousand times and let out on the street by some judge who gets to go home to a big house and caught a nice car, and you know, pretend like they're really Oh, I'm a public servant. I'm here to serve the public. I'm gonna serve them up all the killers and murderers and rapists. I can get locked up time and time again. You can't argue. I mean, there's no argument. There's nothing you can't argue that. So on the subject of arrested thirty times in killing someone, the show title is carrying the Right Gun. Carrying the Right Gun brought to you by PBN. Really today is brought to you by a stable book group. But we'll get into that a little later. We need a bigger chunk of time to get into that. So carrying the right firearm, there's a bunch of different reasons why it's important. There's a bunch of different things that get in your head. I don't look at carrying a gun as a simple thing, right, I never have. I never even looked at owning a gun as a simple thing. I didn't grow up in the woods. I didn't grow up shooting guns at a young age. I bought my first gun when I was eighteen out of fear, really truly bought my first gun when I was eighteen out of fear living with my girlfriend at the time now wife, because we were living in a terrible neighborhood in an apartment and someone came to the door late at night, banging on it. And it was the first time in my whole life where someone was at my door trying to break in, and I was, you know, the responder, And I remember all I the only and this is such a weird thing when I look back on it, but the only thing I did. I went for the bar that holds the bench press back up, like I had a like a bench press, you know, like a bench that you could lift up for incline. And I grabbed that bar and that was the extent of my plan. Now, remind you my mind you at the time, I'm I don't think I was in I might have still, yeah, I might have been in college. I may I don't think. No, I wasn't. I was out of college. But I was actively like working in restaurants, carrying a roll of knives around. Right, chef knife, pairing knife, boning knife, boning knif would have been the one to grab left all the knives, took a metal bar to the door. Nobody broke in. Nothing happened, right, there's no cool story. But it was the realization that like, ooh, it'd be way better if I could just punch some holes in somebody who breaks in the door and then go back to bed instead of getting into a melee match. Right. So I bought that gun. Nobody instructed me on how to use it, you know what I mean. I took it to the gun range. I was petrified of it. Shot shot it one time. I shot the uh. One time I shot the I assumed I shot it the ledge that you sit everything on. I shot directly at it. I couldn't find the hole, but I know that I shot it was I was had no trigger discipline, nothing, I'd know what I was doing. This is like, this is God's honest truth that people in America, especially like two A supporters like myself, we hate to admit, but I'm just telling you the complete, transparent truth. Okay. I went out bought a gun at eighteen years old, didn't really know what I was doing with it. I had no idea what gun safety was whatsoever. And I learned as I went, you know what I mean, I learned as I went. And you know, that's just what my experience with it was. And the gun largely sat in the box that I bought it in, you know, somewhere nearest the bed, for years, for years, not until that was probably six oh seven o eight, maybe something like that. It definitely wasn't O eight o six oh seven. And not until set fifteen. When was the London Bridge attack seventeen or fifteen? I can I think it was seventeen. Not until twenty seventeen did I begin to carry that same weapon concealed. Let's see, I know it was. I think it was after Jacob was born. Twenty seventeen, you had London Bridge attack, coordinated vehicle ramming and stabbing, a terrorist incident that killed eight civilians and injured forty eight others before the attackers were shot dead by the British police. Kuram Shahza, but I'm not kidding butt Rashid Redwan and Usef Zaghaba. I'll never forget that story, guys. That story was an amazing moment in my life. That London Bridge attack was one of the most pivotal moments in my life. I read one story in particular, I could read it to you, but I don't want to draw it out. And it was the story of the family that was cornered in the store and they were stabbed to death or stabbed to the hospital. I don't remember if they died exactly, but they were stabbed, like seriously, seriously injured. And I remember looking at my kids and my wife, you know what I mean. I got two kids in twenty seventeen. I had a two year old and I had a six year old, and my wife. I'm looking at him, going like, there is no way, right, there is no way in hell that I'm going to find myself in the position where I'm in the corner of a store, standing in front of my wife and kids, awaiting the machete, right like, there is no way We're gonna be cut down by some stinking Middle Eastern cultists. It's not gonna happen. So from that moment on, my wife and I both started to carry firearms. You know, and trust me, you'd rather get shot by me. She hits way harder than me. She carries a powerful gun man, which is good. That's what you want, you know what I mean something, Well, what you want is what you want. And it's hard to establish that if you don't carry a gun at all, right, but it's pretty easy. I would recommend you carry at more than one firearm while you're deciding, like what you want to settle on seriously I would also recommend you carry a large firearm before carrying a small firearm. That's the way I did it. I carried a Ruger P ninety five for long time, and it was a good gun. I mean, it's a great gun. I still have it. It's an amazing gun. And then then I carried a smaller gun. And you know what I realized is that I carry the smaller gun way more and way more consistently than the big one. And that's that is probably one of the most important thing. That is the most important thing, right, if you're going to commit to carrying a firearm, carrying it concealed, using it for self defense. Really coming to the conclusion that the world that I exist in it would be I would feel a lot better in it if I had the ability to defend myself with a firearm. Not to mention, there is a bit of like duty, There is a bit of like you're an American, right, don't take for granted the fact that you're allowed to carry a gun. It's not like a universal thing. Go talk to Canada, you know what I mean. So to me, when I got bought a smaller weapon with a smaller magazine, oh my God, you can't do that. You're supposed to have a thirty round magazine just to stick it to the democrats. I understand. Don't get me wrong, I understand. I would like to let everyone know if you're worried about a smaller magazine and a smaller gun, like, there's a couple really awesome fixes. Number One, you could carry the weapon with a smaller magazine, and then you can carry a larger magazine for that weapon. Extended magazines you can get them for like every gun, every handgun and the other thing. You could carry like more than one magazine. It's really easy, you know what I mean. I don't want to like crotch shot you, but oh you're not gonna be able to see it anyway. Tactical pants have this pocket that most people put there. I guess they put their multitool in. But you can slide a magazine in there. And it's a lot easier to slide little magazines in the pockets. I don't know. Again, a lot of this comes down to preference. Preference is huge. The problem is people don't have a thousand or two thousand dollars to buy like four different guns and carry them four different guns four different holsters, carry them each for a week. I like this one, you know what I mean? So I think you can learn a lot about the type of gun you want to carry based on what you carry. Anyway, What kind of person are you? You know what I mean? Are you like? Are you a person that carries like, you know, all kinds of stuff already? Are you a are you an eedc or already? Right? I got this and that, and I got the multi tool, and I got the folding knife, and I got the box cutter, and I got the the micro tactical flashlight that I carry every day. Like what do you do consistently? If you're the type of person that is a minimalist leaving the house like phone keys whilet I'm out the door type of person, then you're probably gonna want a smaller gun. You're probably gonna want a smaller weapon, you know what I mean. You're probably gonna want the little snubnosed powerhouse. You could get something like a snub snub nose thirty eight small gun, heavy though heavy, right, that might not be a great thing. Smaller you know, I carry a My gun is literally called a sissy, Like that's what my gun is called doesn't. I couldn't care less. It's great, perfect, beautiful. It's on me all the time, and you barely even notice it, barely even notice it. It's sighted up, and I mean, it's just what you want, what I want. I'm not interested in walking around with the big cannon open carry on my side, cowboy hat on, you know what I mean. One takeaway you have to have when it comes to James Man, if you don't know, is I wasn't born for this role that I'm in. You know what I mean, Like, I wasn't born for this role. I didn't come to this thing with that experience. I'm not a veteran. I don't have you know what I mean. I'm late, basically like a writer who stumbled through the wrong door. I like had a coffee and a goofy glasses and I pushed the prepper door open and I looked up and I was like, oh sorry, and you guys were just like, now, come sit down here what we have to say. And I walked in and sat down, and you know, the rest is history. But a lot of it has to do with preference, you know. I guess if I had to start from scratch. If I woke up tomorrow and I didn't have a gun, I didn't have a concealed carry license. But I'm going well, according to the FBI, it's a lot of hesbalad and Hamas in the country. Probably need a weapon, right unless I'm going to figure out how to dodge bullets like NEO, probably need a gun. If I were in that boat, the first thing that I would do is I would go to the gun range and I would handle I would rent three guns. If you don't have the money to rent three guns, and you know that kind of thing, then just go want one time and rent one or two and then go back, you know what I mean. But I would certainly go rent some handguns. I would rent me a big, you know, nine millimeter play around with that, maybe even a forty five. I shot at forty five by well, no, no, for the size. I wasn't like, really it shot well, I don't remember what it was. It was my brother in laws. What the hell was it. I can't remember the type of weapon it was, but we shot a bunch of forty five ACP and I was like, Okay, I get it, I understand. I see the value here. It was definitely not sort of the scary recoil machine that people think that it might be right if you never shot one. But yeah, I would get I would get a smaller, you know, nine millimeter. I'd get something like a thirty eight snubnose revolver. I would get something like a larger, you know, glock seventeen or something like that, and I would handle those guns, feel how they feel in your hand right, and really just get a feel for what that gun feels like from a weight perspective. The reason you need to have kind of need to have more than one gun is so that you have a so that you could pick a glock up and then you can pick up a small snub nose thirty eight and go, wow, okay, which one do I want hanging off my belt right? Uh? And that you that would that would be where I would start, and I would see how, what feels good? What shoots? Well? I shot the m m P like right out of the box. What was it? The shield? Yeah, I shot an m MP shield like right out of the box at the gun range one time. My friend was shooting it and it was insanely accurate, or I was insanely accurate with it, you know what I mean. And it was a really impressive gun. You know, it was sort of like a pick go into his range, pick it up off off the the deck there and shoot and it was deadly accurate. I was really surprised. No, you know, iron sights, no sight, nothing like that. Really good, really good gun. It would it would be. It probably will be the gun I buy next once I'm done with the gun that I currently have. If I'm done with the gun that I currently have, Right, Firewell Forge says, tell the range you need to get fitted. They'll help you get get something comfortable. Firewell says getting getting smoked by a pink Hello, kitty sissy. Yeah, yeah, I mean it's if you know me, then you probably aren't that surprised. But because I don't do things that other people do just because other people do them. I'm a weird type of person who does the things that I like. And it's rare nowadays, man, and the people who do the things that they like because they like it, like literally to make a decision because like this is what I like, and and know that you're gonna get hit with, Like you know you're gonna get hit with the static of other people, or you're gonna get hit with the static of like the status quo, like you are this box, check this box, check this box. Check. So you should carry this gun, you know, go straight to hell. That's what I have to tell you about that. So don't fall into that track either, right, don't I remember what was it? Probably three years ago everybody started carrying, uh, they were carrying the five point seven round in their you know, the handguns, the five point seven like small rifle round in the magazine. I don't know, like I got it. I got it. I said, you know, armor piercing or you know, potential for that, potential for really, you know, handling somebody with body armor. And I just started thinking, like looking at how big it is looking at that. You know, again, don't matter how cool the gun is. Don't matter how much you like looking at the gun on the shelf, right, don't matter even how much you like shooting the gun on the range. Matters how much the gun is on your person. That's what matters. You can have the baddest ass john Wick generation firearm that anyone has ever seen, tricked out with the best sights, sighted in perfect weapon light. The whole nine yards and if you're out at the cafe and then Hezballah decides to start shooting the glass out and coming in with knives, and they're not gonna come in with knives. But you know what I'm saying. And you go, oh, I left that stupid big gun at home on the dresser because it's too big, and I'm wearing shorts. You're carrying a wrong gun, doesn't matter how cool it is, you know what I mean. So you gotta carry it. The other big thing, of course, that's what it was, the HK yep. So the other big thing is Holster. Holster is everything, right, Holster is well, it really is. Holster is everything. I've ran several different kinds. Outside the waistband, inside the waistband, leather, inside the waistband plastic, And for me, guys, it's the same story. It's minimal. It's what's little and what's easy. What's little, what's easy. I even modified the holster I carry now because it didn't fit the site the Crimson trace I have in my handgun. So but it's tiny. It's a time the holster that I carry every day of my life, okay, and have for years. It's called a scorpion right. I bought it on Amazon for like, I don't know, twenty dollars. I think this thing costs twenty bucks or something along that line. It costs nothing. I literally had to cut out the front of it here. You know. It used to go up to like my knuckle, and I had to cut that out so it fit the gun. And that's it why I have an alienware alienwear alienwaar holster up there for my P ninety five. That's leather and sits up against them and go. And it's perfect and nice. I use it for years. It's big, man, it's big and bulky and great. If I was a cop or something like that for a living, i'd have a holster like that. But that little holster right there, man, what's it called the tactical what now? Yeah, it's called the tactical I don't even know. That's the funny part. The tactical scorpion gear tactic. They probably don't even sell it, tactical scorpion gear. You go around the internet, you'll see a million different cool ass holsters. You ain't gonna run, excuse me, into a tactical scorpion gear. But Like I said, it's what works this combination. I would leave out of the house with a firearm consistently, and that's the goal. Okay, So get out there, try some weapons, right, get fitted as the uh you want to take the Firewell Forge's advice when it comes to blacksmithing and when it comes to firearms, trust me on that. Okay, does it I get no pinch whatsoever? But I'm not I'm not overweight at all. Firewoll Forge says, uh, And do exercises with it on? Yeah, well, you know that's a good one. That is a good one. I did have to I did have to tighten this thing down quite a bit actually to get it to where I wanted. It does not dig into the ribs, he says. Does it fall out when you get out of the truck. No, But I do have a story about another holster. No, was it was it that? It wasn't this. It was this holster, but it was a different belt. You gotta be careful about do jumping Jackson sit ups? Yeah that's no. Hey all Massy, how you been man? Yeah? No breakouts, none of that stuff. Like I said, there's good information over there at Instagram. Firewell forge is putting up about hole holsters. For a while there, everybody was carrying like appendix style. They're like a knife and a magazine and a gun and everything like right here, I couldn't. I mean, it's just not comfortable for me at all. You know what I mean, It's just not comfortable at all. So again, fads trends, businesses, companies, companies headed up by guys that you really like, Hey, get this older man is the one you want. All that's bullshit. You gotta wear what works for you and what gets you out of the house with a firearm on you every day, that's what works. And if you find yourself in a situation where you're like I only took the gun like two to two days last week, then you gotta change something up right. So that's my take. Folks carrying on carrying the right gun if it's a thing you want to do, you know what I mean, you could get one of those ridiculous like cross body bags and put your gun in there. If I can't carry this weapon on my belt because I'm not wearing a belt most of the time, I wear a sling bag, not a chest fanny pack, but just a sling bag. I don't care, you know what I mean, it's not a big deal. And do your thing. The uh what is it called? The there's a holster that you can wear with shorts. I've never tried it, but they got they got a bunch of co ones. They got the body rap holsters. I can't do no body rap holster. That's weird to me. But they got all kind of stuff. Again, your preference, right, your preference. Let's move on. Let's talk about something big man, something that's coming. I'm gonna show you something because in the by the end of the week, drum roll. We're working with the Stable Book Group, who produces some really great books, some really great prepper books. One that I own that sits on the shelf right over here, that's an essential. We're working with those guys to promote two new books that they have out. We'll look at those first, but in doing this, we're also going to run a giant book giveaway. Okay, now, this book is a book right here that every prepper should have. This is a book that I own that I've had for years. I don't remember who I bought it from. He could have been given to me I'm not sure Prepper's Long Term Survival, Prepper's Home Defense. This is the second edition. I have the first edition over there. Why Prepper's Home Defense is so great is because it has this line on the bottom, any means necessary. So what Prepper's Home Defense does in Jim Cobb is phenomenal. What Prepper's Home Defense does is it goes over home security basics, home defense basics, but it also goes over like it's all over. There's no rule of law, there's no rules of engagement, it doesn't matter. This is how you're gonna have to protect your home. All bets are off home defense. And to me, that's where the book shines because a lot of books kind of a lot of books kind of you know, they they worry about the law. They're sort of writing a book for you to use to to deal with what's going on in modern times. Right, put a flood light out, put a solar flood light out. Make sure you have a you know, the whole thing, This book right here, man, this is the one, This is the one you want. I like small books too. This is not an encyclopedia, you know. The only real big book I have, well, I guess I have a few. The Horned Day Handbook of Cartridge Reloading is a big book, but you gotta have that. It's a recipe book, right. The only big books that I have that I really like referred to often are the Bible. In the Bible. Really, I have big books. I got the Outline of History by Orson Wells over here. Such a crazy book that that even exists, right, But yeah, for the most part, I like little books, you know, small books that are effective. Boom, you read it, you're done. I don't want a book where it's like I'm half through and it's a slog and it's killing me. So you can get this book a stablegroup dot Stablebookgroup dot com. The links are down below in the rumble stream and they will be down below in the podcast if you're just listening Stablebookgroup dot com. I'll throw them in the Instagram chat. Why not, because you should get Probably could get both of these and it'd be just fine. Boom, but a must have for everybody's preppers home defense, all right, that's that is just a must have. Now, this is going to be part of the giveaway, and I want to show you the other book as well. Then we're going to talk about what we're doing with with the routine here, because it's hard to hard to talk about firearms and home defense and hes balah and all that kind of stuff. Now, this book I have not read. I'm getting one. It's coming. Uh. It is a big deal. It is one of the most costly and common like natural disasters people deal with right all over the world. Ryan Lee Price, I used to work with lyon Ryan Lee Price, I used to write for him. He's a great guy, great guy, very knowledgeable, knows his stuff. So I have no doubts that the book itself is going to be great. But you know, flood prevention is a thing. If you're in an area where it is a thing, then it is a thing. You know, you gotta be prepared for. You gotta have a plan. So again, both books linked down below. You're gonna be hearing about these books all through the month, Okay, So go get your preppers Home Defense. It's it's well worth it. We're gonna do the big giveaway featuring those two books and another book from Stable Book Group. And this book is very important. This is actually you would call this a relic, you would call this a relic for the Preppers of the Prepper Broadcasting Network, and this is Prepper Survival Navigation. And that man right down there, Walter Glenn Martin, is actually the man who created the Prepper Broadcasting Network. That's g Man, Walter Glenn Martin, And you get to know him a little bit. You get to know him a little bit in this book. You get to know kind of what his life was like. You see you see a lot of things that he's done. You see some situations he's gotten into living in the mountains, even as a guy who spent his whole life in the mountains. One of the best stories in this book is what happens when g Man gets lost in the woods. And I think he's like in his forties or something. He gets lost in the woods, in his woods, and that story is just invaluable. It really is. It's invaluable. As a young boy, I was raised on a dude ranch in a very secluded part of eastern Oregon near the base of the Strawberry Mountain wilderness area. During off season, friends and I were as what during the off season, friends were as few and far between as the homes. Like any other kid growing up in the country. I had my chores around the house, like cleaning my room, milking cows, tending to animals. I also had schoolwork homework assignments, which thrilled me less than mucking out the pig pens. Yeah, he's got a very interesting story, man. But this goes into everything, goes into all this stuff. This is this book is in my bug out bag. Okay, like this is my bug out bag book. This is my reference because not only is it the first half of the book is all navigation. The second half of the book is all survival skills, water purification, you know, fire crafting, the whole thing, like the whole gamut of wilderness survival skills. It is a great again, phenomenal book. Look, look how big. It's not a bible. You know, it's one hundred and seventy pages. It's perfect to slide down in the bug out bag. Awesome. So the giveaway will include those two books. It will also include this book. Right, We're also gonna give away the World of Ready. We're gonna give away poems for men. We're gonna give away the Christmas Hook. Okay, I know some of them are seasonal, is what it is. We may even give away. I'm gonna run it to the end of the month. I haven't really talked about this that much, but in April. In April, I am releasing my own survival book which has been published, and I should know the name of it. It's called The Survival Toolkit, and it's a book slash gift. It's a pretty cool little thing, pretty cool little gift. Another book that is not overwhelmingly large, but it is the only place in the written world where my survival tips sort of exist now. So I don't know if that book comes through. I'm supposed to get author copies of that book. I think it's end of March, early April. If I get copies of that, then I'll send you one of those two as part of the winnings for the book giveaway. All right, so massive book giveaway, probably six seven books. I'll sign everything that I've written. If there's some and else on the shelf that I want to send, y'all say, I I may send a darker Trails. I'm not sure. I don't know how many of those I have. Those go, you know what I mean, horror stories those go. But anyhow so that will be able to enter by Friday, Okay, Friday, I'll send it out. It'll be in the show notes, it'll be in the emails, Join the mailing list, go to pbmfamily dot com, all that, because, Yeah, it's gonna be a good one. You get your hands on that. You gotta have the freaking Preppers Home Defense. We'll talk about that one more in detail. I think I'm getting both pretty soon. We just kicked off this promotion in uh March, so we're day three here, we're getting everything sort of situated. But great books, man, I'm telling you right now the if you haven't read The World of Ready and you got kids, you need you need to see the World of Ready. I I put them all over here there, all over there. But it's a really great series, a two book series so far. We'll probably put a third book out this summer maybe. And it's just a fun read. It's fun read with little kids. You want to have a if you want to read with little kids and talk about preparedness and things like that, it's it's a great read for that. So what else? What else? What else you guys want to talk about? I do want to get into the what's it called a little bit raffle tickets, man, it's no raffle tickets be fun to do. Raffle it's a good idea. Don't give me good ideas like that. Man, I'll be putting raffle tickets out now. It'll be it'll be a free giveaway, you know. It'll be a follow us here, link to us there, give us, you know, a thumbs up here, and you'll get entries for all of that kind of stuff. That's usually the way we do it. And I think that's a good one. Raffles a better idea, though, don't tempt me on that one. Fire will forge, gonna be good stuff. Let's talk about the routine, shall we, Because I don't know what I'm doing today yet. I haven't touched it. I haven't touched it, I haven't touched the Bible nothing. Let's have a look at the eighteen thousand Trained Killers March Routine twenty twenty six. Just for all the listeners out there. It's been put an element, it's been sent out via email. It's in the host bag channel. You could get your hands on it, all right. Reach out if you really want one, and I'll get it to you free of charge. This is a routine that's available to everyone. The only thing I did over on social media for you instagrammers if you're just instagramming and you don't follow us and stuff like that, is I just told you to DM me, okay, and I told you to name your price for the routine. Doesn't mean it has to be cut. Your price could be zero. Okay, think outside the box, don't be a dufis critical thinking strategy. Okay, so yeah, let's do it. Let's do it. What do we got going on today? Today is the third and we'll be reading Matthew twenty five one through thirteen, The Parable of the Virgins and be ready, that's a good one. If I didn't yap perpetually, I would read them on the air. You know, maybe I will for Surviving America tomorrow. We got planks and Russian twists today for a core focused three sets of each. Ooh, the Russian twist is a great exercise man, Planks, Russian twists, and we probably should do some sit ups in there too. Three sets high reps for your core, Okay, especially if you're not using weight. Don't do five, you know what I mean, don't even really do ten. Try to do twelve and above right. And for plank, I don't know, plank subjective, you know what I mean. You gotta be careful plank subjective. It also, plank's really easy to quit, so you can tell yourself in your head, I can only do a twenty second plank. You could definitely do a thirty second plank, but you want to quit, you know what I mean. So I mean just I don't know, I could probably do I don't know. I don't know my max time when a plank is. But I'm I undoubtedly certain I could do a two minute plank right now. Three sets, probably be tough. I could probably pull it off. It's a great exercise. Man, low back. Your core is everything. Guys, like most people who get hurt, they get the core gets weak. The core gets weak, they get hurt, back injuries, all that kind of stuff. Everything gets weak. You don't. You have to maintain everything. Every muscle in your body needs maintenance as soon as it starts to get weak. Atrophy, Oh I got a shoulder. Oh now I got a shoulder thing, you know what I mean. And working is not maintenance of the body. It's just not. Nobody's more banged up than working dudes, right, nobody, it's not. What happens is you develop an over reliance on the muscles that you use to do the work and an under reliance on the supporting muscles that help you do the work. And those supporting muscles are the ones that go. Just happens. It's what it is. I know nobody wants to hear it because fitness sucks. But whatever, you either do it or it does you, you know what I mean. So shelter tarp set up variations for optional bushcraft practice. Today. It's a good day for tarp setup because it's raining out. We're doing dry fire. The dry fire training for today is to draw from Holster and situational awareness walk. Oh, how about that big, big situational awareness show up today, guys, huge show. Sarah hath the way she does dialed in prepping topics probably the best on the whole network. You know what I mean. I like to chat it up and have fun with you, guys. She has Chin by her side and they do great stuff together. Man, they have done some amazing presentations. She is five foot nothing, one hundred and nothing, and it's one of the reasons I really prize her. Take on self defense, situational awareness the most right. You learn self defense from a big guy who's all tatted up and you know, was in the military for twenty years. Nothing wrong with it, he knows what the hell he's talking about. But the stakes are a lot higher when you're a small woman, you know what I mean. When you can't just like squeeze the breath out of a human being with one hand, that stakes are higher, you know. So I always appreciate her take. That's always up now Prepperbroadcasting dot com or wherever you get podcasts right iTunes, Spotify, if you do listen to us on itunespan leave us a review. Go over there and leave me a review. Please leave me a review. The only people that leave PBN reviews are the people that for some reason hate PBN. They're compelled to leave the worst reviews of all time. And I don't know if that's the imbalance of me not asking for reviews. So you guys, don't go over and leave them. But if you got some free time, lunch break, whatever, go leave us a nice review. I don't go there very often, but I go there and I look at the reviews and it's like ghostly you know what I mean. So if you get something out of the show, do us that favor fire will Forge asks have you seen the dry fire cards? No, I have not. I'll definitely check that out. He also says little old ladies self defense course like the local rec center one hundred percent the best. Yeah, I mean, Sarah's trained too. That's the big difference. Sarah is you know, hardcore trained in martial arts, so she knows how to use the body as a weapon. In fact, that's the name of one of her courses, that Prepper camp. But but on top of that, it's that whole thing, right, it's that whole like I'm small and probably not as strong as the person who's gonna be wanting to do something to me. Anyway. Long story short, listen to the show. It's up now, it's available, now, listen to it and enjoy it, because now is the time. If you're not gonna take situational awareness seriously now, then you're not gonna take situational awareness seriously. Right If the FBI is like, oh yeah, Hesbala is here, Yeah Hamas is here, and they may do something. They got the fattou order from from you know, filthy robe. They may do something if you're walking around like, eh, we'll see. I don't know. And it is what it is. It's like yesterday, like I was saying, yes, they're gonna do something or not. Some of you are not gonna do shit. You know what I mean. You're never gonna change. And that's okay for you. I guess I don't know. So anyway, what else, folks, what one more thing before we go? Don't forget to support the sponsors. Go get the book Stable book Group. The links are down below. They are making or one of the reasons today's show is possible. Right members, you wonderful members, I've got a podcast for you today. It's sitting in the chamber. It's gonna go out to everyone who is a paid member. It's a very big announcements. One. It's a massive announcement. It is about the Emergency Communications Group. Okay, Dave Jones and I we've been playing around with the Pocklink radios, the push to Talk four G radio. Basically, we've got a lot of emails from members for a long time about we need a group, we should have a group, we need a communications group, we need a check in group. I think we've got it. I think we've got it. Okay, the details will be in the podcast and all that kind of fun stuff. It may come to pass that the group gets as big as as all of the audience who wants to get involved. But that won't be for a while. It will be a member's only group for a while. And that's because I never run a community emergency communications group before. Okay, but ideally we're gonna do a monthly check in. Make sure everybody's up and running, make sure everybody's comms are up and running. Right. We're gonna add some details to the monthly check in too. You'll get that in the podcast. But suffice it to say, as much as I like being the the court jester here at PBN and just having fun talking to you guys, I'm telling myself lies. If I say that, that's where my job begins and ends. Right. If I tell myself, you're just supposed to get up there and just make sure your hair looks nice and just have fun, that's part of it, man. But you know it is PBN. We are the Prepper Broadcast. That's why the routine is out. You know what I mean? If I wasn't compelled to help you do better, be better, and also to keep myself is a big one now, to keep myself freaking accountable because I'm forty years old now, man, whatever that means, it's been great. Forty has been epic thus far. I'm like five six days in. The only thing I haven't had in my forties is coffee. That's the only downside, Although if things start to go sideways, once I start drinking coffee again, my rambling mind might might give up coffee altogether. You never know, with me, man, you never I don't know how my wife stays married to me, really, because you really never know. With me. I always make the joke like one day you wake up in this gone forever. You never know. But I do like to be I need something like this, the framework of PBN, the consistency that goes into it. I gotta have that. I gotta have my mission every day. It's essential. So you guys are safe that set. Go to pbnfamily dot com sign up for your membership. If you want to be part of the Comms Group. Okay, if you want to be part of the Comms Group, you're gonna need a pocklink capable radio doesn't have to be the Pocklink radio.

We'll be doing a whole show on these Pocklink radios and how they bounce off of sell towers, what they're good at, what they're not good at, what they're good for, what they're not good for, and just you know, the whole idea behind it. Because they are a they should definitely be something you consider for your emergency communications pace plan. They got a lot of benefits with family, but we'll talk about that all on another show.
