PBN Power and The Path Back to Stability

[00:00:03] You're listening to PBN. You're paying back to stability.

[00:00:54] Or where was that? The Daily Mail UK website is like a hoax. That's what it looks like to me. It looks like a hoax. Like it looks like a joke. I had ads on every side of the picture and the headline and they're moving and they're going over the top of the picture and going over the headline.

[00:01:17] And I'm looking at it like the only way, like the only way a normal person winds up with a website so bad. In other words, like you're going to this website to see photos and to read words about photos and maybe even to see videos.

[00:01:37] The only way you wind up with a website that bad. It would have to be intentional. Unless you were a total moron. You know what I mean? Like you, you would have to sit down with a group of people and say like,

[00:01:53] All right, so we're going to put together a news website called the Daily Mail. How can we make the experience for the user at the Daily Mail the absolute worst?

[00:02:07] Like what is the worst experience you can have reading news off a website? It's showing up and not being able to read the news. 100%.

[00:02:18] And the way they do that is they put pop-ups and ads on this side and then a video and then you click the video and there's two minutes worth of ads before you get to see the video.

[00:02:29] And I'm sitting there on the website like you have to plan for this. Like you have to be intentional about making such a bad website. Either that or you're just a bunch of fools.

[00:02:43] So I don't know what you guys are doing at the Daily Mail, but that's my take. Maybe time to reevaluate the website. Okay.

[00:02:50] Nobody goes to the Daily Mail for ads, but that's what you get there. So suffice it to say we're here now.

[00:02:59] Morning, Jay Ferg in chat. What is up?

[00:03:01] Morning, Jay Ferg in chat.

[00:03:31] Morning, Jay Ferg in chat.

[00:04:06] I don't know. It really just made me think of the Old Testament a lot.

[00:04:10] You know, I mean, I don't know.

[00:04:14] Call it what it is, but it just made me look at that and say like Old Testament popped into my head.

[00:04:20] Like vengeful God, you know, like all the it's like the epicenter for agnostic God hating.

[00:04:27] You know what I mean? Hollywood itself.

[00:04:31] It's not I mean, take it for what it is. Right.

[00:04:34] It's not a prescription. I'm just saying that's Jay Ferg in chat says Sodom and Gomorrah.

[00:04:39] It's a good way to look at it, too. Yeah, ma'am.

[00:04:45] So. You know, there's a bit of that sort of Old Testament vengeance from God that keeps resonating in my head watching this stuff.

[00:04:52] It's horrible. Sucks for the people involved.

[00:04:55] And, you know, I hope to never experience anything like it.

[00:05:00] But we're going to be inundated.

[00:05:02] You see, not the people as much, but what's going to the fall out of this is going to be.

[00:05:09] This is climate change and it's your fault.

[00:05:13] Right. And this is the stuff you can't buy.

[00:05:15] This is the stuff you can't buy from these idiots.

[00:05:18] You can't buy the West Coast is on fire and it's your fault for driving a vehicle and eating a steak.

[00:05:27] Right. Because that's the game that they will play with this.

[00:05:29] This is climate change. The winds, all of it.

[00:05:31] It's all your fault.

[00:05:34] And I take a real issue with that.

[00:05:38] I take real issue with that because.

[00:05:43] For the last decade of my life alone, I and every host on the Prepper Broadcasting Network.

[00:05:50] Has been saying California is a basket case and it's run terribly.

[00:05:54] I even have people who who host podcasts who lived in California and left.

[00:06:00] Listeners who lived in California and left for Texas because it's terribly run.

[00:06:09] All across the nation, PBN family, we're seeing mediocrity and what happens when mediocrity is left unchecked.

[00:06:16] You know what I mean? What Jay Ferg says, the L.A. mayor was cutting funding to fire and fire hydrant checks.

[00:06:25] I saw this yesterday.

[00:06:26] Again, it's just.

[00:06:29] The terrible management, it's mediocre people in high places with limited experience and no common sense.

[00:06:38] And you can run that experiment for a little while without it being too much of a problem.

[00:06:44] What most interests me about this homeless man with with the they say a flamethrower, but it was like a burn zomatic in a in a it was like a blowtorch propane fueled.

[00:06:59] I don't know. I look at the guy can't tell they haven't put a name out yet.

[00:07:02] Of course.

[00:07:03] I can't help but look at a guy like that pictured and not think when did he come across the border?

[00:07:10] You know, what was his mission?

[00:07:14] What were his marching orders?

[00:07:16] You know what I mean?

[00:07:18] I know that's prejudice and all that kind of stuff, but there are threats if you haven't noticed and we got to figure out what they are.

[00:07:26] And I think I don't think we can point to greenhouse gases for every threat that we face as a nation going forward.

[00:07:37] The reason I brought this up, number one, you're going to be maligned for being an American, maligned for being a human on the planet Earth and destroying Gaia.

[00:07:49] And this is going to be one of the ways they do that.

[00:07:51] Right.

[00:07:52] They're going to tell you it's climate change.

[00:07:54] Well, maybe not.

[00:07:55] Maybe it's the fact that L.A. in particular has had such an out of control homeless situation.

[00:08:03] It's it's unfathomable.

[00:08:04] They had an outbreak of typhus like five years ago.

[00:08:08] Fleas.

[00:08:09] You know, I mean, I don't have to go down the list.

[00:08:10] You guys know what's going on over there.

[00:08:15] Not only that, but you can look this up yourself.

[00:08:18] I'm not going to do it for you.

[00:08:19] But this has happened before.

[00:08:22] This homeless people living in the woods.

[00:08:26] Starting fires either intentionally or not has happened in California before and has triggered wildfires before.

[00:08:35] And it goes back to that sort of basic, you know, running of a city and a county and a state.

[00:08:46] You know, you can't have hundreds of thousands of unchecked people living in tents in the woods.

[00:08:54] They don't care about burn notices.

[00:08:56] I said this yesterday, by the way, before this even came out.

[00:08:59] They don't care about burn notices and when you can and can't.

[00:09:04] And they don't care about your city.

[00:09:07] Right.

[00:09:09] You know, there's something to ownership.

[00:09:13] Ownership.

[00:09:14] Taking ownership for America.

[00:09:16] Taking ownership for the human race rather than blaming the human race for every problem.

[00:09:23] So I don't really want to go off on tangents.

[00:09:29] Regarding this, I'm not really that into the story.

[00:09:34] To me, it just speaks to it speaks to sort of mediocrity reaching its limits.

[00:09:43] You know, it's breaking point.

[00:09:46] Crazy people running cities and states that the city of L.A., the state, the county of L.A., the state of California.

[00:09:53] Crazy people doing crazy things that people like me have been saying are crazy for years.

[00:10:01] The idea that anybody thought Newsom was going to run for president and somehow beat Donald Trump is so hilarious and was hilarious to me from the get go.

[00:10:09] But anyway, you know, all of this stuff equates to this weird idea that, well, that we're all being faced with right now in different ways.

[00:10:23] Which is putting the wrong person in the job and feeling real good about it because they look a certain way or are a certain gender.

[00:10:33] You know what I mean?

[00:10:37] The job has to get done.

[00:10:39] Like I said about the water.

[00:10:40] There are certain enrichment.

[00:10:41] There are certain jobs that have to get done.

[00:10:43] Not everybody's working checkout at Target.

[00:10:47] They screw up.

[00:10:48] The customer goes away happy because they got a little discount.

[00:10:52] You know what I mean?

[00:10:54] Half the merchandise is going out in people's pockets and backpacks anyway.

[00:11:02] Now, I want to steer the ship into a more positive ground.

[00:11:10] Because over the last couple days I've received some, we receive emails a lot from our followers, members, listeners.

[00:11:23] And, you know, they're the reason we do this.

[00:11:27] But what's most important is the yield to me.

[00:11:31] You know, the yield to me is very important.

[00:11:35] So I got a couple messages about the power of PBN from our listeners and our members that I want to read to you guys.

[00:11:45] And I want you to understand, like, this path back to stability thing is real.

[00:11:53] We're living in unstable times, right?

[00:11:57] Instable?

[00:11:58] Non-stable?

[00:12:00] We're living through instability.

[00:12:02] And it's showing up everywhere.

[00:12:04] You know what I mean?

[00:12:07] And preparedness is the way back.

[00:12:10] Being able to stand on your own two feet is the way back.

[00:12:15] I'm going to read to you.

[00:12:19] I've been busy with 13 inches of snow.

[00:12:21] Caring for chickens.

[00:12:23] Working.

[00:12:24] Keeping things running here.

[00:12:27] In southern Indiana.

[00:12:29] I went through our preparedness list nearly half a dozen times before the snow arrived.

[00:12:34] 13 inches turned into two feet.

[00:12:38] In my little town.

[00:12:40] The highway was easily cleared within 10 hours, but getting through the driveway, not so much.

[00:12:47] The realization that preparedness as a concept is only a journey, not a destination, is mind-blowing.

[00:12:54] There is no end.

[00:12:56] It's a moving goalpost from one event to the next.

[00:13:00] Each instance reveals another quote-unquote thing or process that could be and should be better.

[00:13:09] This is extreme preparedness insight from this guy, by the way.

[00:13:13] Really well done.

[00:13:14] Really well thought out.

[00:13:16] 100% on the mark, too, by the way.

[00:13:19] My wins.

[00:13:20] Food, water, shelter.

[00:13:22] Animals included.

[00:13:23] Layered ways to heat.

[00:13:25] That warms my heart.

[00:13:27] Layered ways to heat.

[00:13:28] Layered ways to heat warms my heart.

[00:13:30] Because the layering of preparedness is everything.

[00:13:34] Layered ways to heat, cook, and all the time in the world.

[00:13:40] My losses or my opportunities in the future.

[00:13:44] It's a good way to look at it.

[00:13:46] More propane.

[00:13:47] More effective tools.

[00:13:48] Better processes.

[00:13:50] Better processes for snow removal.

[00:13:52] Question mark.

[00:13:53] Sounds weird.

[00:13:54] The realization that I needed more propane but isn't a grid-down SHGF type of renewable resource is kind of mesmerizing.

[00:14:02] Being prepared and being self-sufficient shouldn't even be mentioned in the same breath.

[00:14:06] If a person were to really contemplate the totality of possibilities.

[00:14:15] So, this is a long-time member.

[00:14:20] Lifetime member, actually.

[00:14:22] Now, when I tell you guys, the listening audience, the viewing audience, that this community here at Prepper Broadcasting Network is different.

[00:14:38] This is what I mean.

[00:14:40] You know, you can plug into any old prepping YouTube channel guy or whatever podcast.

[00:14:47] These people that listen here at PBN, they're just legit.

[00:14:51] It just is what it is.

[00:14:52] They're doing it.

[00:14:53] You know what I mean?

[00:14:54] They're doing it like we're all doing it.

[00:14:58] They're honest, which is beautiful.

[00:15:01] You know?

[00:15:01] They're humble.

[00:15:04] They're thoughtful.

[00:15:06] This...

[00:15:07] We go to Prepper Camp.

[00:15:09] We meet these people in real time.

[00:15:12] And we, as a collective, the hosts gather together to discuss Prepper Camp both on the mic and off the mic and to discuss our audience on the mic and off the mic.

[00:15:22] And we're blown away by you guys.

[00:15:25] You know?

[00:15:26] The best way to explain it is if you drop your wallet and $200 worth in cash spilled out of it, the person would find the wallet and the cash and return it to you as is, without question.

[00:15:41] Any person at Prepper Camp.

[00:15:43] Like, this is...

[00:15:45] It was so funny to be boots on the ground at Prepper Camp for several years and then to see the Business Insider lady show up at Prepper Camp to do her little media thing and to put out an article about how Prepper Camp was all white people with AR-15s.

[00:16:03] It was amazing, you know?

[00:16:08] This was 2019, maybe.

[00:16:11] 2020.

[00:16:14] And to...

[00:16:15] It spoke so much.

[00:16:17] What's up, Jay Pine?

[00:16:19] It spoke so much to the tone deafness of the media even that far back that you could go to an event like that and see the kids running around playing and see the 60-plus courses, people teaching tons of people how to be more self-reliant and independent.

[00:16:36] And come away with this idea.

[00:16:39] Come away with this paragraph about...

[00:16:43] Well, what's really going on there is it's a bunch of white people and, you know, it was just crazy.

[00:16:52] It's important for me as the intrepid commander here.

[00:16:57] That is what it is.

[00:17:03] To slow things down from time to time, slow all this, you know, the business sustainability of PBN, right?

[00:17:13] Like, we've got to make money.

[00:17:14] We've got to pay bills in order to stay on there.

[00:17:17] But to pump the brakes on that and to get back to, like, the guy I was when I was podcasting 10 years ago on a Friday night live with no intentions of it being a business, no intentions of anything.

[00:17:33] And just meeting people, learning, being in the thick of this, getting my family prepared for right now.

[00:17:39] Like, this right now.

[00:17:41] This moment in history is what I started 10 years ago and why I started it.

[00:17:45] So that things like this would happen around the nation and I would be able to go, we've got plans, we've got resources, we've got all the things that we need.

[00:17:54] You know what I mean?

[00:17:56] And a mentality as a family that this is good, what we're doing.

[00:18:03] Sorry, the disaster coffee is so on point, it's unbelievable.

[00:18:08] I'm drinking my favorite disaster coffee today, Tsunami.

[00:18:14] Jay Fergan chat says she liked the review this morning on the member's side.

[00:18:21] And it's almost kind of like she knew what I wanted to do today.

[00:18:27] I'm going to read you another testament.

[00:18:31] But I do want to show you family gear real quick.

[00:18:36] They're called bionic boomers.

[00:18:39] Seniors once riddled with debilitating arthritis pain.

[00:18:42] I can't turn that down.

[00:18:44] That's so loud.

[00:18:47] So let me turn the volume off.

[00:18:49] Again, family.

[00:18:51] I'm giving you a peek behind enemy lines here.

[00:18:55] So this is the Lima Tango survival logo.

[00:18:58] And what I gave the members is we do a segment called family gear for members and it is a gear review.

[00:19:05] That's what it is.

[00:19:06] It's a gear review.

[00:19:07] I never really did gear reviews on YouTube or any outlet like that.

[00:19:11] I've only recently started reviewing stuff here on this podcast.

[00:19:15] And then one day it kind of hit me.

[00:19:17] It was like I got all these people paying to support PBN paying members.

[00:19:22] They're the ones that deserve the full scale gear reviews.

[00:19:25] My real, you know, full attention to certain pieces of gear.

[00:19:29] So I started family gear to, you know, PBN family, family gear, what have you.

[00:19:35] And so this guy, for those of you who are members, is waiting for you over at the membership website, PBN family dot com.

[00:19:42] As you can see here.

[00:19:46] And.

[00:19:48] You know, it is what it is, what you will what you will take away from this review is that I give you my honest opinion on this thing.

[00:19:57] You know, the good, the bad, the ugly, the amazing.

[00:20:02] There's a lot of good stuff going on with this bag.

[00:20:04] This is a problem solver, you know.

[00:20:09] So.

[00:20:12] Yeah.

[00:20:12] PBN family dot com.

[00:20:13] Check it out.

[00:20:14] If you're into that kind of thing.

[00:20:17] We had so much over there.

[00:20:18] It's ridiculous.

[00:20:19] Like what we do at PBN family dot com has become.

[00:20:24] It's become a standalone preparedness website that rivals.

[00:20:29] I'd say it rivals most preparedness websites that are out there.

[00:20:34] Except ours is members only.

[00:20:37] But we have such content and such a breakdown of content now.

[00:20:42] That like.

[00:20:43] I don't know.

[00:20:44] I'd say it rivals any any prepping website out there, to be honest with you.

[00:20:50] And that's just our membership content alone has nothing to do with the podcast fundamentally.

[00:20:55] So let's hear from another.

[00:20:59] Another incredible PBN listener.

[00:21:04] Let me see where to start on this thing.

[00:21:06] I'm trying to keep anonymity here.

[00:21:15] Well, the reason I became a lifetime member is that I want you to succeed at this.

[00:21:21] That's one of these things you hear from somebody on a Friday morning.

[00:21:24] It's like, whoa, you know, this is from a member who you probably will hear from eventually at some point.

[00:21:34] Somebody who's really doing a lot of the things.

[00:21:36] I've become a damn near expert on food preservation, canning, freeze drying.

[00:21:42] A garden efficient producer.

[00:21:45] A long range multi day backpacker.

[00:21:48] And a lot more.

[00:21:51] At least half of these skills I acquired from PBN within the last 10 years.

[00:21:59] This is, I don't, you know, when you put out content daily, when you have 15 people, there's a time we had 20 different people putting content out of PBN.

[00:22:11] When you dedicate yourself to that kind of thing, these kinds of messages, man, are like electric.

[00:22:18] You know.

[00:22:22] I owe PBN a lot more than the cost of the membership.

[00:22:24] I'd love to participate more in the future, but for now it's not possible.

[00:22:29] Thank you so much for all you and the hosts do.

[00:22:34] This just is what it is, folks.

[00:22:36] You know.

[00:22:39] It's important to add, you know, the real life aspect to what we do here every day.

[00:22:46] I don't want to promote anything.

[00:22:48] I have an SLNT dry bag here that I was going to promote.

[00:22:54] It's Friday.

[00:22:56] We've done a lot of promotion of products throughout the week.

[00:23:01] Do check out Lima Tango Survival and consider membership so you can check out the full scale review.

[00:23:07] It's linked down below.

[00:23:08] You can check out the backpack.

[00:23:09] It's awesome.

[00:23:11] Like I said, you don't get a lot of backpacks, and you won't get a lot of backpack reviews from me because I'm not a big fan of what people put out.

[00:23:20] This is a different thing.

[00:23:25] But suffice it to say, man, when we say your path back to stability, I'm looking around the nation.

[00:23:34] I'm seeing what the hell is going on around the world.

[00:23:37] I'm looking at people talking to people, listening to people, real people.

[00:23:42] And saying to myself, this is what people are hungry for right now.

[00:23:46] Right?

[00:23:47] They want to be self-sufficient to some degree.

[00:23:49] They want to be able to have solutions when the government comes on the TV and goes, we don't know what's going on.

[00:23:56] Things aren't working right.

[00:23:58] You know what I mean?

[00:24:00] This is what they want.

[00:24:01] This is what we provide.

[00:24:04] This is our community and so on.

[00:24:06] All right?

[00:24:08] So enjoy your weekend, folks.

[00:24:10] We're getting some snow overnight.

[00:24:12] We're going to have a blast.

[00:24:14] I'll talk to you guys soon.
