Fall Gardens, Musk Party, and What's Missing

[00:00:05] You're listening to PBN, your path back the stability here

[00:00:13] Folks, welcome in. Morning, Jordan. Thanks for hitting the chat up early.

[00:00:43] What is up? What is up on a Tuesday? What is up on a Tuesday? It's Firewolf in the chat. Welcome in. Fall Gardens, The Musk Party, and What's Missing? I can't shake it. I can't shake it. I am enamored by what's missing in life.

[00:01:13] I don't know why. It's just one of these weird things. But Jordan in chat is back sealing and freezing 10 pounds. Ooh, very nice. Get that. What's Dave Jones always say? Say it with me, class. Secure your protein. Very good. Very good. Excellent work this morning.

[00:01:40] Yeah, it's weird. It's that time. If you want pumpkins for Halloween, it's that time. I'm talking to grow them. If you want to do these kinds of things, you're always a season ahead. I've found and what I've learned from gardening is that you can apply it to life. And if you apply your gardening mentality to life, staying a season ahead is a pretty good idea.

[00:02:10] Child rearing, it can be a really good tool there as well. You know, being a season ahead is kind of the game, you know, and that's where we're at right now. We got a lot of rain over the weekend. The soil was nice. And I thought that'd be a good time to get out and start fall gardening. Now, to a lot of people, I don't know, that might seem weird. It might seem like a weird idea. But I always about end of June, early July.

[00:02:40] Mid-July is kind of late. Start playing. Does anybody else just like play in the garden? You know what I mean? Just playing stuff. Like, I'm just going to throw some seeds in here. You know who does this is Maria, Dave Jones' wife. He says she throws seeds everywhere she can find a spot to throw seeds. And I do feel like that's fun, you know?

[00:03:04] In the world of doomsday prepping, which is kind of a word that's not only lost its effect, but it's a combination of words that's kind of dumb. But in the world of prepping, preparedness, homesteading, all that kind of stuff, like maybe more to the prepping side and the self-sustaining homestead side,

[00:03:28] like you can get lost in the dire, like, actions. You know what I mean? Like the direness of, oh, my God, I must get this done. Oh, my God, we must do this right. This must work. If it doesn't work, then when the world collapses, we'll all die and starve to death. But fire my comments on the same side as my camera. That's going to be annoying. So, you know, it is what it is. Have some fun with this thing.

[00:03:57] You know what I mean? Have some fun with it. Plant some weird stuff you're not sure is going to grow. Plant in some weird ways you're not sure is going to work. You want an example? Let me move my seeds. I got a bunch of seeds to show you today, varieties of seeds. You ever seen one of these weird things? I sprouted a bunch of seeds for my father's garden, tomato garden, tomato pepper garden fundamentally.

[00:04:26] And what I did is I hung this thing in a five-gallon bucket filled. Probably neat. I don't know. I think it'll be fine, actually. That looks pretty good. Playing. Like, this is 100% playing. I have no idea if this is going to work. I never did it before. But you've got to have some fun, man. You've got to have some fun with this shit. Or else what are you doing? Now, we're going to do a little tree trimming right now here on PBS.

[00:04:55] First of all, it needs it. Second of all, it's in the damn way. So what I got coming out of here is effectively two tomatoes. And they're cherry tomatoes. And they're doing nothing. They're doing nothing. They're not really in a great spot for a ton of sun. I just got an idea. I just got a great idea.

[00:05:25] Hang on. Let me put you down for one second. See, I'm missing out on this morning sun. See that morning sun hitting them right now? Naturally, they're growing down. So they grew down and behind here. And the sun's hitting right here. And they're missing out on that morning sun. Oh, man. That fresh tomato smell. So, yeah. They're growing out the bottom of this barrel. I mean, out the bottom of this bucket.

[00:05:53] I just cut a hole in it. And, you know, flip the sprouted tomato plant and fill the rest with soil, compost, leaves. Even, like, just some straight up leaf. It'll mulch down, you know, throughout the season. Listen, I bet you they'll be late. I bet you they probably won't be until, like, August or something like that. But they'll work. They'll definitely work. And it'll be awesome.

[00:06:24] Why will it be awesome? Because it's fun. Right? It's not the end of the world yet. Like, nobody's dying. Nobody's starving. It's getting a little more dire. It definitely seems like... Look, for those of you who don't know, I run, like, a couple businesses. Actually, you could really boil it down to about three. If you wrap writing up into one thing. Right?

[00:06:49] And when you run businesses and deal with customers, there's a lot of patterns. There's a lot of trends. You know what I mean? And frugality is the trend. Frugality is the trend. And unfortunately, crisis has been... I don't want to call crisis a trend right now. But a lot of customers that I've talked to have experienced two things this year. Okay? Two things.

[00:07:18] The first, I got hacked. Can you please change my card information or send me a link to change my card information? I've been hacked. A lot. A lot. Way more than normal. Only really reminds me of, like, 2020. That I remember so many hacks happening. You know, to our customers. Right? The other one is crisis.

[00:07:46] The other one is we've got to stop with this coffee subscription over at disastercoffee.com. We've got to stop with this PBN membership because we really have to cut costs for X or Y reasons. Monetarily concerned. You know what I mean? So, one of the best ways to take the edge off is to grow your own food and store your own food long term. Buy food in bulk.

[00:08:14] You know, like, every week, about every week now, I take advantage of food storage. It didn't used to be that way. It didn't used to be that way. It really didn't. Well, that's not necessarily true. There are some things that I just always have taken advantage of bulk food storage. Some of the biggest being just bread, flour, and sugar. You know what I mean? Bread, flour, and sugar. Just one of those things, like, I don't know when the last time I bought a two-pound bag of flour was.

[00:08:45] For what? You know what I mean? I don't even know why I would do it. Maybe, like, nah. I can't remember. Truly. So, what I'm getting at is, the garden serves you. Not only does the garden serve you monetarily, but it serves you, you know, from the health perspective as well. You can't beat them tomatoes, man. The real incredible tomatoes. You dress them up with the fresh oregano. Dress them up with the basil.

[00:09:14] Dress them up with the good olive oil. I didn't eat yet. Now I'm doing it. Well, it's early, right? 7.53 in the morning. I hope this isn't bad for you guys. Because it ain't changing. The 9 o'clock hour works when school's in session because, you know, at this time, my house is crazy. We're getting in cars, driving places, doing things, you know what I mean? But the summer. Oh. The summer.

[00:09:43] The summer of freedom. Right? The summer of freedom when you can wake up and do a show whenever the hell you want. You can wake up and do a show at 5 in the morning if you want. I could do that. I could do that anyway. I feel like you get the real Pacific time psychos. You do a show at 5 a.m., right? You get the real lunatics. You probably get the California revolutionaries, which I would probably get if I woke up and did a show at 5 a.m. Eastern time, right?

[00:10:14] Because now we're dealing with, what, 2 a.m. Pacific. So, yeah, you've got guys who are sitting in there and they've got, like, pictures of Gavin Newsom with the eye holes burned out by a cigarette. You know what I mean? Sort of. I'm just creating a character. It doesn't exist. Just total creation, okay? And he's got, like, California, but it's all dressed in American flag.

[00:10:39] You know, he's got his collection of California legals, firearms, hanging on a wall and dreaming of the day when the red tide returns to the West Coast. I do think that eventually the West Coast can be taken over. You know what I mean?

[00:10:57] I do think, like, cold Civil War-style tactics can be used to seize California from, I don't even know what you call the powers over there. You know what I mean? There's, there, what are they? What's a good, I guess one of the best ways to look at them is, like, they're like the forces of chaos. You know what I mean?

[00:11:24] They just, they just want to go insane and whatever insanity they grip onto, they grip onto. It feels satanic, the leadership in California, right? Doesn't it feel like chaotic, satanic, that kind of thing? I don't know. Check it out. Fall Garden. I got this last year, man. This is pretty cool. Maybe not last year. Maybe the year before, actually. God, time flies.

[00:11:50] God, this is highly impractical. I mean, these seeds might be, if you're strictly, go ahead, bud. Oh my God. My little puppy's going mad out here. If you're strictly trying to grow food, right? Like, your garden is a food-producing plot, then these seeds are going to be like, what the hell am I supposed to do with that? But they're so fun, man.

[00:12:20] Remember I was talking to you about fun? These are called the pumpkin spooky blends, okay? Plants thrive in the heat of summer and prefer an area of full sunlight. Water seeds until germination occurs. Water plants directly at the roots. Be sure they use some right now. I'm approved, right? What these are, man, they're just a collection of pumpkins. They don't even tell you which. They don't even tell you which ones.

[00:12:49] I don't think there's anywhere on it. See, that's how little I care. You see this? Where is it? You see this bunch of pumpkins behind me? That's from here from months ago. You know what I mean? They're going everywhere. I love that. I love that. I want them to go everywhere. Hey, what are you doing in there? My new dog, he has this disease. I call it like anaconda. You know what I mean?

[00:13:19] He just swallows everything whole. I don't know what it is. It doesn't matter what it is. If it fits, he just swallows it whole. He'll throw it up. I got to grab him and pull it out. I pulled a necktie out of him the other day. I don't know. I don't know what he's doing. The only way, I saw someone articulate it online pretty good. They had a picture of the three stages of raising a dog. And like the first stage was a cute little puppy. Stage two was a velociraptor. And stage three was like a fully mature dog.

[00:13:49] That's pretty well put, if you ask me. So anyway, the spooky blend, okay? Pretty cool. Pretty fun gardening. You know what I mean? And what it looks like is chaos. I mean, I don't know if you can see it. It's really like a bunch of different seeds. You have no idea what you're planting. I mean, I know some of what I'm planting because of my experience with them.

[00:14:15] Like I know for sure that these little guys are most certainly those little jack, what are they called? Jack B. Littles. And then we got these big giant guys. I'm sure they're going to do something about it, right? But there's everything in between. And that's just what I'm getting at, man, with the have a little fun in your garden thing. Have a little fun in your garden, you know?

[00:14:40] So there's that seed needs or something like that, the company, seed needs. I'll check them out again this year to see what the hell they got going on because that's fun. Then you get into the prepper seeds, you know what I mean? You get into the My Patriot Supply seeds. You guys probably have them, right? My Patriot Supply, they do a lot of cool stuff for preppers, survivalists, homesteaders. Bush beans are an essential. This is the Blue Lake bush bean.

[00:15:08] Why I'm showing you that when we're talking about fall garden is because bush beans are one of those things that I plant everywhere all the time. You know what I mean? They're one of the – this year, I'm really heavily potted plant growing. Okay, I think I have five, six – I got something into like the 15 to 20 potted plants, right? I'll show them to you.

[00:15:36] But it's just one of the things I wanted to try this year. I wanted to see – you're starting from scratch, right? Maybe your garden isn't – well, there's two reasons I'm doing it. I'll tell you the truth. But I did want to see what starting from scratch potted plant gardening can really do, right? What can you really grow in pots? Because one of the things I say to people all the time is if you have a balcony, you can grow food in pots in five-gallon buckets.

[00:16:05] And you know how much five-gallon bucket and potted plant growing I've done over the years? Not a lot. You know what I mean? Not a lot. Herbs every year. Big old pots like this thing. I don't know if you can see it. It's too far away. But big old pots like that kind of thing I do every year. But not like I've done this year. Not like we got green beans growing. I just ripped up a bunch of arugula.

[00:16:36] You know what did really well? Got really big. It was really effective. It was turnip greens. Really good. Kale did really good in the pots. And this is nutrient-dense stuff, man. This is like food food. You know what I mean? Like real good food that will boost your nutrients. They give me no nutrients. So, have any idea what movie that's in? It's a huge movie in my house when the kids were little. So, yeah.

[00:17:04] These guys are my Patriot Supply Seeds. These are ancient. And they still sprout. These guys I literally have growing right now. These Blue Lakes. The date they were packaged was 2016. Really, really good stuff. Really, really good stuff. Patriot Seeds. I don't know what these are. I actually have no idea what. I think these might be my Patriot Supply also. But a newer version. I got tons of these things.

[00:17:36] The Golden Wax Bean is really just like, let's put something in the ground that's different for the kids. My kids are like pickers. You know what I mean? Like they go outside and they pick food and eat it. Which is, you know, what you want. If you raise them to do that young. If you do it with them young, they'll do it their whole life. You know what I mean? If you go out in the garden. This used to be my only garden section of the yard right here. Stretched next to me along this fence.

[00:18:05] And that used to be my garden. And I've got pictures of my son in there. Like, one. You know what I mean? Two at the most probably. Just chewing on stuff in the garden. Sitting in a diaper in the dirt. And, you know, if you. You don't have to be in the country to do that. My dad did it to me in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Right? I'm just telling you. You know, those are the things that you can do.

[00:18:34] What was the quote? I don't know what you mean. Elaborate. I blew past it. And I'm sorry. But, yeah. Patriot seeds. And then, like. Look. I buy this stuff, too. I buy these. What are they called? Bani? Just this kind of stuff. I always tell you. And you'll notice. The seeds that I'm showing you are the seeds. So what do they do?

[00:19:04] What do they do? Oh. Oh. The quote was. They give you no nutrients. I did the Italian thing. But it's actually a Mexican guy who does it. What you'll notice about everything going in the ground pretty much. Aside from some jalapeno peppers. But even then, they do really well. You know. Quantity. Quantity. Quantity. Quantity. You know what I mean?

[00:19:32] Give me the sprouting and the spanning. And the plants that are going to produce eons of vegetables. Because look. I'm not really a huge fan of getting in the garden and tending it. And trimming. And all this kind of stuff. You know what I mean? It's not like my passion. So I want to put things in the ground. Or in pots. Or in soil some way. That are going to yield a lot. And are pretty easy. So that I can come out and go.

[00:20:01] Get the snippet of the herbs. Snippet of zucchini. You know. Pull up a little of this. Take it into the house. And make something good. That's the MO for me. Right? That's the MO for me. So the fall garden. Get some seeds in the ground. Get pumpkins in the ground if you want to have a little bit of fun. Like. Have some fun. All right? If you're really into this thing. If you're really into this prepping thing. Have some fun with it. I'm serious. Like. It's silly not to.

[00:20:31] You know what I mean? I got a run of the mill one for you today. But. We're doing an outdoor. Inside the cash. Let's do it. How many of you guys have one of these? How many of you guys have a legitimate gasoline jerry can? You know. With the spout. And the. The accoutrement on top.

[00:21:01] How many of you guys have a legitimate jerry can? That like. In. In a bad situation. You could take this thing. This is a brand called. Waybian. I have no idea. What the varieties of brands of jerry can are. I could care less. Right? This thing's made in Latvia. Of all places. But yeah. These guys man. I see a lot of like. Game plans for storing.

[00:21:32] Gasoline. I'm not too big into like the whole. I'm going to store. For a hundred gallons of gasoline thing. But I do think it's good to have. You know. This guy's a 20 liter. What's that? I don't even know the math. What's a 20 liter. Exactly. Anybody know. In chat. What I know is it. It's a big ass jerry can.

[00:22:00] You could fill it with gasoline. And they. You know. They line up real nice. You fill them up with gas. Line them up. The other thing I have too. Is a. A jerry can for water. Next to me. But it's so tight next to me. You could barely see the dam. Where is it? Where are you? This one is full of water. It's also 20 liter. And it's. It's heavy as hell. 5.3 gallon. There you go.

[00:22:30] 5.3 gallon. There's a lot of fancy. Like water storage. Stuff out there. Jayfair's talking. Something very important. I want to put it on. On. The. The. The. The fuel stabilizer. I buy that. Stabil stuff. And use it. It. It works. It works. Big time. I'll tell you a trick. With the stable. That I've learned over the years.

[00:23:01] Um. Put it in your. In your gas generator. Yeah. Because. Fundamentally. Your gas generator. Right. Becomes fuel storage. I mean. Unless you're living like the worst year of your life. Like. Look at your gas generator tank. As a gasoline storage unit. Depending on what you got. If you got one of these little things. Maybe. Maybe not as big a deal. But it's still. Still is what it is.

[00:23:30] I used to throw the gasoline in there. Fill it up. You know what I mean. And. And. Sometimes I'd have to take a bunch of gas in. Put new in. To get it to start. And then I started to. Then I realized. Oh. This is just a big ass. Jerry can. So I might as well put the stable. Directly in. Right. Because what the stable does. The stabilizer. Keeps the. Keeps it from oxidating. Keeps the oxygen from ruining the gasoline. Right. You put that directly into the generator. Because.

[00:24:00] You look at it as a fuel storage location. Because there are years man. Whole years that go by. That I don't even turn it on. Just don't need to turn it on. Now I have an electric generator. So it's even. You know. It's even less. But. Yeah. You can utilize that that way. But I'd still have. The. At least a. Or several. 20 liter Jerry cans. That can make a real difference. Right. Even if you had two of them. For 10 gallons. Like 10 gallons.

[00:24:30] Is going to give you a lot. Of capability. In terms of. Escape. You know. Bug out. Whatever. Evacuation. More likely. But not just evacuation. But. But. What about sustained. Evacuation. Like. What about. The type of a disaster. Or situation. Where you're like. I have to get away from home. It's dangerous. We have to evacuate. Right. And you evacuate. And find yourself. In an area where.

[00:25:01] Well. This was plan A. And this sucks too. So now we got to keep going. And there's no gasoline. Right. That's where the Jerry can comes in. Or Jerry cans. Because if you take 10 gallons of gas. Put it in your vehicle. I don't care what you're driving. Well. Unless of course you're driving a Tesla. Then it might not do you any good. But you could. You could go. You know what I mean. You could keep on going. Until you find a place that's safe. So. I don't know. And they're. They. You know. They're sturdy. It's just one of those things.

[00:25:31] I. I experienced. Just last year. For the first time ever. One of my. Gas cans was. Chewed up by mice. In the shed. Like a holes chewed into it. You know. I never had that happen before. So. You know. Good luck. Good luck Mr. Mouse. Getting through the way beyond. You know what I'm saying. This guy's got a really nice. Set of. Goodies on top.

[00:26:01] Do what you want. I'm just showing you the stuff that I do. Because I think it's. Fun. Makes sense. Looks good. Feels good. You know what I mean. Uh. Musk card. What do you guys think. You know. We are the groups. Well. Well there has been. An outcry. Right. A serious outcry. For like. New parties. Right. We need new parties. We need. We need more parties. We need all kinds of parties.

[00:26:31] We need a variety of parties. The problem is. America is only really good at putting out. Like one party at a time. Extra. That's viable. And then it. Takes away from the other side. So. You know. You see Donald Trump. Fundamentally. What's Donald Trump and Elon Musk arguing about? It's the debt. Really. You know. At the end of the day. It's the debt. And the debt is something that should concern us all. Maybe.

[00:27:02] I don't even know how I feel about the debt anymore. There was a time I used to get on here. And I used to. Get your gold. And get your silver. And get your food. The dollar is going to be worthless. I don't know man. I really don't know anymore. I. I'm not at all. Remotely worried about the economic powers of Russia and China. Are you? Are you sitting there going like.

[00:27:31] What if China becomes the ruler of the world? I don't see it happening. I don't see a dominant. I don't see a nation with a dominant currency coming to play. And moreover. And much much more importantly guys. We know now that the U.S. Whatever. Whatever portion of the U.S. it is. There's a sub sector in the U.S. government. I guess it's part military. Part political.

[00:28:01] Part geopolitical. And there's no other way to say it. They got your back if you're an American. Okay. Like they got your back. But maybe not in the ways that you would like them. To have your back. And what that looks like is. When countries go like. We'll just start a BRICS currency. We'll just do X, Y, and Z. We'll just stop using the dollar. All of a sudden. Life gets shit. For those countries.

[00:28:31] Have you noticed the pattern? This is sort of like. Probably a CIA. Geopolitical. Like. Saboteur. Kind of. Operation. That is literally designed. To make sure that. Even. Even. Even with the economic stability. That America presents with the U.S. dollar. If anybody gets second thoughts. It does seem like. In. In the still of the night. Someone shows up and is like.

[00:29:01] You may want to second thought. That whole BRICS idea. That whole ditching the U.S. dollar. You may want to. And I don't know how you stop that. You're not going to stop that. You know. That's a thing you're not going to stop. Or nobody's capable of stopping right now. You know what I mean. But. Musk has started a party. And he's worried about the debt. We all should be fundamentally worried about the debt. To some degree. Um. If not for the sheer point of like. The tax burden.

[00:29:32] The leverage of a. Of a massive debt like that. Gives the government the ability to be like. Gotta raise taxes. Pay off this debt. Sorry. Even though you haven't got a. A penny. From the majority of the spending. That has happened over. I mean. Of the trillions. What percentage do you think. The average working class American has received. I'd love to know it. If anybody's out there. Who wants to do something. To figure that out. I'd love to know it. I'd love to know that. Of.

[00:30:03] The 30 some odd trillion dollars. That we're in debt. What percentage of working Americans. Have benefited. Directly. From that money spent. I'm not talking about just checks. But I'm talking. I mean sheer. Benefits. Like. Like. The literal. Aid of the government. Right. Or. Whatever responsibility. The government has. Right. We lost 100,000. 90,000 Americans. To fentanyl. When the. When the U.S. Government. One of their sole duties.

[00:30:31] Is supposed to be to protect. The United States citizens. We opened the border wide up. Let everybody in. Every terrorist. Every. Every Chinese operative. Every. Remember. 2022. 22 or 23. There was like a. A rash of sabotages. And we called them accidents. Here in the United States. We were like. Oh Jesus. Another. A train derailment. With. With chemicals on it. Oh my God. East Palestine. Don't look over there. Then we saw. A rash of. Food warehouses.

[00:31:01] Catching on fire. Every other week. Another food warehouse. Was on fire. Iran was hacking everything. We were sitting here like. This is a very. This is a very strange year. Wouldn't you say. Articles coming out. Being like. Oh this happens all the time. They just don't report it normally. Here's a list of all the. So. You know. Anyways. It is what it is. The Musk party.

[00:31:31] It is alarming. It is alarming because. J.D. Vance versus. Versus Elon Musk. Or whoever Elon Musk. Puts up to run. The. The America party. You know how that's going to end. Well. I'll tell you how that's going to end. And maybe I should clip this later. If the America party is decidedly conservative. And freedom. Uh. Focused. Right. Liberty. Real freedom. Real liberty.

[00:32:01] Not just like. Only agree with what I agree with. And. Your max freedom is to change your sex. I'm talking real freedom. Right. Real freedom. Small government. The whole thing. If you have that party in the Republican party. Going head to head. What that means is. Your next president will be. Alexandria. Cacio. Cortez. Cacio. That's what that means. That means she'll run. And you'll be like. There's no way this could happen. It's like Camila part two.

[00:32:32] We'll split into those two parties. The Democrats will win. And you'll wake up. On a cold day in November. And you'll be like. AOC is the president. Holy shit. What happened? And then Elon Musk by that point. Will probably be like. Shuttling off to Mars. With his. With his gaggle of robots. And robot women. Tesla cars strapped to the. To the rockets. To drive around Mars. Boring company.

[00:33:04] Drills. To drill underground. To live underground. Like a. Like a Moorlach. And then the rest of us are screwed. So. You know. It is what it is. It is what. I don't know. How do you guys feel about. What do you think about the Musk party? X. There's a bunch of people over there at X. What the hell is going on? Comment. I don't get on here to stare at my own nose. Okay. Well comment. Get into the conversation. The.

[00:33:34] The Musk party. The party Americana. What will it do to the country? You think it's a good idea? Bad idea? Do we stop the debt at all costs? Will Congress ever. Actually read bills that they propose? There are whispers. I'll tell you if you really want to make a difference in this country. What to pay attention to. Politically. Is there are whispers of. Term limits. In a lot of states. I mean it's.

[00:34:04] I think it can happen. I think it can happen. And if it can happen. I think it can happen under Trump. That's a game changer. That's a game changer. You know what I mean? I think it should be applied. Everywhere. Even the Supreme Court justices. Right. Why have a nation. Of the people. By the people. For the people. But congressmen and congresswomen can sit there and rot. Year over year.

[00:34:33] The Supreme Court justices are nominated for life. I get it. It's really fun when you. The Supreme Court justices you like are nominated for life. Right. Doesn't seem right. Doesn't seem like the best way to do business. Right. Merit. And maybe even. You know. With the Supreme Court. I don't mean to get too political. And too. You know. Let's shake up the government on a. What. Tuesday morning. But maybe with the Supreme Court.

[00:35:04] Now. You know. We got to get back to putting quality people out in the world. Instead of. Focusing on equality above all. But if we could get like a. And maybe they're out there. I just don't know. Because I don't know anything about. Lawyers and judges. Thank God. Maybe it would make sense. Or. Judges to be appointed based on their expertise. And the pressing issues. And the caseload that's coming across.

[00:35:33] The Supreme Court's desk. Over the next. 10 years. Five years. Whatever it is. Right. So in other words. I get it. Everybody's. You know. Practicing the same law. All the Constitution. And so on. But. It would be kind of interesting. To see people who have. You know. Expertise in certain areas. Experience. Remember that thing. Experience. That used to matter. Remember that. Remember you used to hire people. Based on experience. You used to be like.

[00:36:03] This guy probably do a really good job. Now why do you think that? Well. He's been in the industry for like 20 years. Oh yeah. Probably. Probably. He's got a lot of experience. You know what I mean? Before we were like. Master's degree above all. Right. Doctorate above. PhD above all. He can't fill out a form. But he's got a master's degree. He can't. So. I don't know. Just thinking out loud.

[00:36:33] Which brings us to our final. Piece of the puzzle. Brings us to our final piece of the puzzle. But before we get into it. I want to talk to you about our amazing sponsor. Lima Tango Survival. Look at that logo. Lima Tango Survival man. They are doing some amazing stuff. Products available on Amazon now. You can go search them up on Amazon. You can find them at limatangosurvival.com. And I'm telling you right now.

[00:37:01] If you want the goods for the value. If you want the best pre-made backpacks. Pre-packed backpacks. For the value. Bags that are. You know. Outfitted well enough. That they will survive you. But also outfitted with enough. Space in the bag. To add what you want. I've gotten. An EDC kit. A fire kit. A solo. 48 hour kit. A 72 hour bug out bag. For two.

[00:37:31] Called the gray man kit. I'm sorry. Two bags. Right. Called the gray man kit. Just phenomenal. Stuff. Amazing. Really incredible stuff. All of it's awesome. All of it's good. And on top of that. You know. They're putting out a bag. Called the tier one. And what the tier one is going to be. Is an expensive bag. I mean that's it. You know. They tow this line of. Quality gear. And affordable price. Which anybody who's putting together. Survival kit has to do. You have to do.

[00:38:01] You know what I mean. When you're making your own kits. Like you're not like. I'm going to build a bug out bag. And I'm going to have no budget. Right. I'm going to. I'm going to throw. All the most expensive gear in here. Just because that's what I want to do. I mean if you got the money. Maybe you can. For the most. Part. For the majority of us. We're. Towing that same line. And. They're releasing a tier one kit. Sog gear. Gerber gear. One Tigress gear. Lots of great. Brand names.

[00:38:32] But what's even cooler than that. Is they emailed me about it. They said hey. What do you think? So. I don't know. For those of you who listened to me. For a long time. And appreciate what it is we do here at PBN. I think that goes a long way. Or it should go a long way. You know. Um. Just as part of the deal. Right. So. Nostalgia. I don't have.

[00:39:02] Much nostalgia. I have. Almost zero desire. To go back. You know what I mean? Like. Very. Very little desire. Firewolf fortune chat. On the Supreme Court. Um. I have very. Little desire to go back. Okay. I don't even know that I would. I mean. I guess if I could live a day. As a child.

[00:39:33] For the fun of it. And not lose a day here. In real time. It'd be fun to wake up on 24 Chestnut Street. And go outside. Ride my bike around the village. Not like a village. I lived in a place called The Village. It was a row home. Uh. Village. Fundamentally built. For the rayon fiber plant. That was in Marcus Hook, Pennsylvania. Read my book. A Christmas Hook. Or The Christmas Hook. If you read my holiday classic. The Christmas Hook.

[00:40:02] Um. You'll get the whole breakdown on. On that. Uh. Operation. So. And maybe. You know. To drive around the village. To see my buddy Mikey and Kyle. When they were young again. Maybe go to Steve's house. Maybe to see. Jessica O'Brien. Back in the day. Like. I don't know. To do all that stuff one day. Would probably be cool. But I. Very little nostalgia for the old days. The old ways. Like. Life is good. I enjoy it.

[00:40:31] But for about a year or two years. I have been gripped. By the genre of. Nostalgic content. And. And. More gripped. More than gripped by it. Like. More than gripped by the content itself. Gripped by the comments. Sections of these. That are people. Deeply. Longing for. Blockbuster night. To return. And.

[00:41:01] And. And. And so on. The nostalgic content. I'm working through this with you in real time. Okay. I've done this. I've done shows on this before. Again. It's. Boggling my mind. Okay. As we get older. We. We lose. Connection. Maybe when we're part of a family unit. See. I have a weird life guys. Like. You.

[00:41:30] Things I say resonate with you. But my life is weird. And it has been weird. The whole thing has been weird. Like. I never lived alone. I haven't been without. A female companion. For. So much of my life. I really don't even know. Alone. I don't even really remember. Remember. What it is to really actually be like. Alone. You know. But I think.

[00:42:00] Or disconnected. To that effect. Right. So like. I think. You come from a family unit. And even if it's not the best family. Even if dad's a dick sometimes. And mom's crazy. And your sister or your brother. Is a pain in the ass. Like you're in this unit. And then you hit. You hit the tidal wave of life. Like. When I was in high school. I had this like. Abyssal view of life. It was like.

[00:42:30] Everything was on a trajectory. From ninth grade to tenth. From tenth to eleven. You know what I mean. And then all of a sudden. I remember it being twelfth grade. And I was like. I am staring into the abyss here. But even then. I had a girlfriend. So it was like. There was always some kind of. Future plan. And somebody to talk to. You know. Disconnected society. And what they're really longing for.

[00:43:00] And what's really missing. Is like being a part of that unit again. You know. Having a unit. Right. Like it was. A family was a choice for me. It wasn't a struggle. Do you know what I mean? And I don't know if that's because. That was the way I thought all along. Which is preparation in and of itself. Right. So in other words. I was always going to get married. I was never one of these guys. That was like.

[00:43:29] I'm going to live out my wild years. And party it up as long as I can. Before the old ball and chain hits. Like. I was on the look for the ball and chain. I just like hanging with girls. You know what I mean? So. I never had an issue with that. I was kind of almost always. I was perpetually family planning. That's what I wanted. I don't know if people do that stuff anymore. I know there's a large outcry. Of guys who seem to be like. And this is stupid to me.

[00:43:59] I don't think this is a good move at all for men. Whatsoever. But. This move away from women. I mean. Saying it out loud sounds so dumb. Like there's. There's a deer walking down my street right now. Like just literally. Like. Families just came by walking. Some people came by walking their kids. There go the dogs. And then now there's a deer just on the deer farm here. Just walking down the street. There are so many deer in the neighborhood. It's unbelievable.

[00:44:30] Come on. What is it? One more month. Two more months till urban archery season. Anyway. This idea that men are going to live without women. Right. They're going to. I see this word. De-sexualize your life. If you can think of a more torturous thing to do to yourself. I don't know it. I really don't know. You know what I mean? This is a concept that is lost on me. I see it everywhere. And it's.

[00:45:00] I grew up quite the opposite. I think you really do push yourself into a world of loneliness. And what I'm getting at folks is I think that the way that the world works right now. With the online community. Being the community. Being the soul community. Nothing wrong with an online community. Right. You guys are awesome. And fun. And some of you I see from time to time. But it's no substitute for the real.

[00:45:29] It's no substitute for the real thing. And I think that's where we're at. I think that's what's missing in a lot of people's lives. There was a time when they were part of a flesh and blood family. Community. Whatever. Football team. Whatever it is. Right. Group of flesh and blood people that got together regularly. And they had fun. Or maybe they didn't even have fun. Maybe they just got together regularly. And did life. And that was enough. Because. Perhaps doing life alone.

[00:45:58] For long stretches of time. And dealing with the inevitable failures. And you know. Horrors of real life. It's a burden unbearable. Perhaps. I don't know. But I see this stuff all the time. And it captivates me. It utterly captivates me. It captivates me in a way that I look at it and go like.

[00:46:28] I start to second guess my own childhood. Now there is part of me that longs for. A sort of child infested neighborhood. Where my kids could have a life similar to mine. And unfortunately those are few and far between. So it's a different existence. Right. It's a different thing. That could have something to do with why I'm drawn to it as well. But at the end of the day. You know it's.

[00:46:56] It just leaves me in that same sort of mindset of what is missing in the world. What is missing in the world that so many people are so. Drawn to the nostalgic. That so many people lament. Visit the present. And long for the past. Which. It's way cooler right now. I mean like if you. If you can find a community. Right. If you can meet with some people.

[00:47:27] Hold on. Born to brat. Born to brat. Getting his two cents in. Got to be a challenge to find a magamate these days. I don't know man. You know. I don't know. I think. I think where you're at. Yeah. Like if you're roaming New York City. 2025. Looking for a. Upstanding Christian conservative gal. That's a needle in a haystack. But I don't know. I don't. I don't think anything's that hard to find.

[00:47:57] You know what I mean. I really don't. I think people are looking for the wrong shit. And you know we could go. Don't get me in relationship advice. Like I. My whole life I've been in relationships. You know what I mean. I know it works and what doesn't work. I've been doing this forever. Ever. You know. Forever. Serious relationships. For all of my life. I mean. I mean really. Like. I was a child. Maybe up until 13. And from.

[00:48:26] Maybe like 14 on. I was in serious relationships. And I mean serious. I mean like living together relationships. I know. It's crazy. And it was a crazy life. But. That was it. That would. That was the ride. So. You know. I've got a good handle on what works. And what doesn't. And also. What you should be looking for. You know what I mean. Like. You can marry people. You can be in relationships with people.

[00:48:55] Where you don't agree on everything. Right. I mean. My wife and I. There's tons of shit we don't agree on. It's just that politics is the big game. Right. Politics. You look at politics. And you think it's the big game. You think it's. It's the football. Of our time. It's the team sport of America right now. But at the end of the day. And trust me. Going forward. It's not going to hold as much sway as you think. Now you can't. You probably. If you're a MAGA person. You're going to have to be.

[00:49:26] Pretty slick. To get in a relationship with. Like a snow cone colored hair girl. Who. Wears like pro abortion shirts. Like. I mean. It's not even going to work. Right. Like at the door. It's not going to work. So. You want to give you. I'll give you the. I'll give you the. The full dose. Just in case there's some young men. Or some single men out there. Listening. Who really want to give. Love and marriage a shot.

[00:49:55] There are things you look for in a woman. That have. Absolutely nothing to do with nothing. That people look for today. The most important thing you can look for in a woman. As far as I'm concerned. Is work ethic. Above all else. I mean. Literally above all else. If there's one thing you want to look for in a woman. It's work ethic. Why? I'm talking about a woman that you.

[00:50:25] If you're a guy who like I was. It was like. It'd be cool to be married and have kids one day. If you're going to have kids. Anybody who's in chat. Feel free to chime in. If you're going to be married. If you're going to have kids. You're going to work. You're going to work. You're going to work your ass off. And. It's really that simple. Like if you want a relationship with somebody. That's really going to last. That's what you need.

[00:50:54] That's numero uno. Numero uno is a girl who works. I don't mean for money. I don't mean job. It doesn't even have to be that. It could be just someone with a work ethic. She volunteers all the time. She's always going. Always doing something. Working at this. She's got goals. Whatever. Number one. Forget about hair color. And eye color. And waist measurements. And all that shit. That all fades anyway. Look.

[00:51:25] Life is hard man. Like your marriage is not going to be this thing. That is great all the time. You're going to have to work to make it great. You're going to add kids to the picture. It's going to make things ten times harder. Right. The other thing you want to look for. If you really want to be with somebody for a long time. And have it work. Somebody who wants to go and do stuff without you. Okay. Somebody who has. Things that they like to do.

[00:51:54] That have absolutely nothing to do with you. And you have no desire to join. This. Insanity of. Doing every single thing together with your mate. Is. Clearly going to make you hate them. I mean this is basic shit that we have like. Really fallen flat on our face with here. There's nobody in my whole life.

[00:52:21] That I want to spend every second of every day with. And do every hobby that I do with. And every moment of my life with. If you want a recipe to hate someone in five years. Like if you want to legitimately hate a person in five years. I'm talking about. Top three people that you hate in life. If you want to. Shoot someone right up to number one. Spend every moment of your life with them. You know what I mean?

[00:52:50] Do everything. Go to the. I'm going to the store honey. You want to come? I'm going to the zoo honey. You want to come? I'm going to do this with my buddies. You want to come? You want to come? You want to come? Make sure you do this with me. Let's do this. When are we going to do that? What. I see these couples man. They're like we're best friends. We do everything together. Get back to me in 20 years. I can't spend that kind of time with anyone. You hate. You know what I mean? Being with people all the time drives you crazy.

[00:53:20] So. You need somebody who's going to work to sustain the marriage. Right? And I mean work. Like hard. Hard work. Number one. Forget. I don't care if you love the same shows. And love the same sports teams. And all that kind of stuff. Or whatever the situation is. She's perfect. She's perfect. She's perfect. She's perfect. Like. What I've noticed with dating girls is. Like. This whole idea that you have preferences. Like.

[00:53:50] You know what I mean? Like. You have preferences. I don't really see it very much. Like. I've dated different girls. All through my life. And. Marveled at all of them. Like. And. You know. From. From the aesthetic. Like. Like. What their high notes were. So this idea that you have. Like. This list of things. These characteristics of women. That like. You're looking for. Dude. That shit doesn't matter. What matters is. If you're going for the long haul. Somebody who's going to.

[00:54:19] Get in the trenches with you. And also what matters. Is somebody who's going to give you space. To be you still. And so that they can go be them. Because. As Shakespeare said. Distance makes the heart grow fonder. It's the. It's the reality. Man. I hope Shakespeare said that. I'm 99% sure. But it's true. It's the truth. It just makes it easy. You know what I mean? I think that's why relationships end so quick. And so rapid. And so radical. With so much vitriol. Is because you spend.

[00:54:50] Weeks at a time. Locked up in an apartment. Right. Running to the coffee shop together. Running out to get lunch. Together. Never separate for a second. Like. Miss somebody man. Remember missing people? Remember that? I don't know. It's my take. It's my take. I don't know. Just. I've seen a lot of things go bad. And I've seen a handful of relationships go really well. These are the things that stick out. It's not cool.

[00:55:20] It's not like. Common knowledge. But it is what it is. So. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. Where the hell. But the Prepper Broadcasting Network. Do you get a. A show. That is so. I mean. I guess when you. See the problem is. When you put something like. What's missing. What's missing at the end of my show. Man. You are in for it. I can go anywhere with that. You know what I mean. But. All right folks.
