Phoenix Survival: Road Snacks!

You're listening to pink again. You will pay us back just ability here. I keep on moving forward. I'm moving for always skating classer, skating class, march until as over, just like a soldier. Like a soldier, I keep on moving forward, moving always skating class of. Marching toil as. Just like a soldier, I always getting class. Did do a good morning PBN. We are late, but we are live. I did announce an element to that that today's show would be a bit behind. There were things that I had to take care of on the forefront and things. As soon as this podcast is over, after little Man has finished his morning nap, I will be back on the road to run some more task because things have to get done, all right. So how are you on this nice and sunny day. I don't know where it is what the temp is like there for you, But here in myrtle beach, I can tell you it's already a bit tasty. I say that it's eighty eight degrees. It feels like one hundred and five, which can tell you what a heat our humidity and heat index are like. That's okay, all right, So I did title it snack some more. I did have a listener reach out to me and ask if I could do an episode, and I think, honestly, I'm gonna end up doing more to this because I didn't get to go in depth with what I would have liked to have done, only because well it's been chaotic. So is life. Of course, we all know the basics. You have your peanut butter, you have, you know what. I actually reached out to a few people too. Let me see, peanut butter is always a great go to. I know this individual keeps peanut butter. So when I drive, I actually end up traveling anywhere from an eleven and a half hours to fifteen hours one way. Now a lot of times those drives are turnaround trips, which I can tell you is a pain in the butt, and eaten on the road code is expensive. I don't care who you are. The only time I've found somewhere is cheap to stop and eat at, believe it or not, is Chick fil A for an adult and four kids. And they're even their ordering off of either one of their mills or an adult mill. It's still cheaper. Which who would have thought thirty something dollars between four four people would be such a godsent, but elsewise it is expensive gas station food, gas station stops. Yes, So when I travel, I typically try to make my drive as through as I can. I do always leave several hours ahead of when I actually intend to, only because I account for the fact I wants one trip. Thank god, I left hours and hours and hours in advance because I got stuck in a three hour hold up instead traffic because someone flipped their big truck with a twenty four foot RV on the back of it or sorry, yeah, mobile home RV whatever, and it blocked the entire entire highway, so you've got to account for that. That means fuel stops. I anytime I travel, I make sure I top off before I hit the road, regardless of where my fuel is sitting at. I know each of my stops because one I am a creature of habit, and two it makes it easier. So if my partner's trying to keep an eye on me or family members, they know where my stops are. If I deviate from those stops for an emergency, I always contact someone. Just how it is. So anytime I'm driving and I know my tank well enough that I know my stops, and I know what I'll hit. And even if one of my stops are coming up and say I had to deviate and I went ahead and stopped beforehand, even if my tank is still relatively well, I don't want my tank to really ever hit below a quarter of a tank. I will still stop and top off, just because I then know my exact stop for the next one based on that. I but yes, so I digress. These snacks right, the food. I'm an MRI fan, not gonna lie. I have those, not ashamed. When I travel, I do take things with me that are easy enough to prepare. So for example, I always keep water on me, whether it be jugs, a couple case or two of water on me, I just do. It's a lot cheaper than trying to go into the store and buy and it racks up. It racks up and costs so quick. Oh, I know what I was doing. I was blowing up this list. So you really got to think things out. So some people I know will not stop and get like pretzels or the peanut butter snacks. That's great, and when you travel having those snacks is great. But also keep in mind if you're doing a long drive like I am, you really don't want anything that's going to tire you out too much. Carbs are sugars. Sugars break down and then make you sleepy. So a trick I have found and a snack I love to keep in my vehicle when I'm driving are apples. The natural sugar gives me a little bit of boost without giving me that complete dropout. The crunch will help me stay awake while I'm chewing on it. And I mean, apples are great for you. Apples are big on the trip for me. Bananas I've traveled with them. They do typically bruise, but I'm that person. I do eat a banana every morning if I can, just a preference, get my morning, get my intake of magnesium potassium. You know, did it's potassium? See yesterday I do. I was running on less than two hours of sleep, so I'm still recouping from that. Let's see, I'm trying to pull up where if I'd been smarter with a screen shot it h excuse me, Okay, so here we go. One of them, one of the hosts that said fruits, nuts, protein bars, chips, peebee and j kind of kind of stuff for us, is what he says. He takes when he travels. I don't think that's a problem at all if you're looking at I know, anytime we do make trips, I will pre make sandwiches, keep them in a small cooler. I keep cooler bags, actually a really good cooler bag in my vehicle, so even if I'm grocery shopping or I'm taking snacks, I really don't have to worry about it too much and it doesn't take up a lot of space. So I do do suggest sandwiches. But if you're living out of your car, you're looking for something that's gonna sustain. Protein bars can melt. Just keep them in a cool place, the tire, the will well in the back where you keep the spear usually works. Fruits and nuts. See, like I said, I'm all for apples. Nuts are great. You can get them an individually packed, you can get them in a container. I'm not a big chip person, so I'm not gonna say don't do chips. Chips are teached through their own you know. That's the same with making a checks mix or having the wheat crisp wheat than not wheatn Yeah, wheat thins are a type of crackers. I mean all of those will be fine. Just know that anytime you have things like that that are open or exposed at error, eventually they will go stell. This isn't something we're trying to keep super super long term. Let's see, Yeah, everybody saw where I had put in there this morning. Nobody's in yet. Not a problem. So I'm gonna digress for a moment and or change subjects. And I am actually working on a project which you're gonna see before too long on Instagram. I have obtained four inch PDC. I am going to put a cap and a U on it or a ninety depends on what I'm feeling how I'm feeling, and I'm going to use that as a gravity feeder for my chickens. I'm still have no workouts and kinks in their water supply because I also have a hen who thinks she can perch on whatever she wants, so no matter how much I try to seal it, she ends up breaking one of the little autofill cups loose. So that's fun. So I've got to find a way to be able to give them water without letting them stand on it, which is gonna come to an issue of just having to bring it up higher, I would think, but they keep it doesn't matter how high I put something. Those birds still find a way to roost on top of it or stand on top of it. It's absurd. But right now the biggest issue for us is we have so many chickens in a very limited space, which is harsh. We're gonna end up fixing that. A few of the three of them are planned on being cold here before too long. It never hurts to have fresh meat in the free let's see. Sorry, folks, I am thirsty. So I have been on the lookout for old handmade quilts. So for any of you listeners out there that you've got quilts that you no longer want that you're looking at donating getting rid of, let me know. I would love to see them. I have been stocking the good wills. I've came across one handmade quilt. I just bought another one, thinking this stitch and looked handmade, which they did a good job, but it was commercial. Somehow got lucky that it was one hundred percent cotton, so that should be interesting. So what's going on with these quilts? I'm repurposing them. Any of these old things can have a second in new life. I am trying to make I'm you know what, I'm not gonna tell you what. I'm gonna try to make. You gonna see it because you're gonna start seeing it. I'm gonna be able to offer some of these items at camp this year. I am excited to show the versatility of repurposing. And yeah, I mean that's basically it. The main thing is everything can be multifasted right, old blankets and quilts. Ah, you don't like them anymore, it's not your style. Okay, not a big deal. Someone else can turn that into something completely new and absolutely love it and an SHTF fan fit a situation. Being able to have a little bit of ingenuity and repurpose something can make the difference between being cold, you know, being able to get out of the elements. It all, it all has its place. I'm still struggling this morning, folks. The fact that I was able to run any errands is kind of something in its own. Let's see, I am tired, to say the least. All right, so I know I didn't really go too much into snacks. I have a whole list somewhere, and I wanted to think of some easy fixed meals for traveling. I'm sorry, Bud. I will make this a two parter and have you more info. I know it was a good one. You asked about it, so I'm gonna deliver. But I'm gonna make sure I deliver a full force, even if it's repeating some of the stuff I have already said, because I actually want to think of good ways to snack and feel full. I know a big one here is jerky. Beef jerky is a big one. Here's the thing. If you buy jerky from the store, please keep in mind that when they make jerky there's a lot of sugar used in that process, a lot of sugar. And then for me, my dietary issue is soy. That's right, I will have an anaphylactic reaction to soy. And it's only gotten more, says I've gotten older. So I have been having a itch to make my own jerky again. It's been a while, but that is always something you can look at if you are going to make your own jerky and you want to be able to pack it to put it up. Keep in mind if you're going to vacuum steale, because meat, you know when you do that there's probably still a little bit of moisture in there. Never hurts to have those those absorbed packs in there. You can get those off of that Amazon vacuum zone. With a couple of those in there, put up those will last. If you are one who you know what, this might hit up your alley. So you want to have mills, right, you want to have snacks, but you don't want to sit there and just snack out of boredom. But because you're hungry, well, if you're gonna go the jerkey, you're route portion it out into each of your vacuum sealed bags to the amount that you're wanting, whether it's a cup or you know how many of our ounces, that's fair for you without it going to waste. Because that's another thing. Anything that we take and travel or eat, it's gonna get opened. It's gonna potentially set up your vehicle to attract insects or even you know, go stell or go bad. So the main thing is making sure that when you do travel and you have these mills, if you have the time to vacuum siem you know, change, separate them out into the portions that you're wanting. So if it's an easy fix. Oh, all of this is in this bag, This is for this day, this is for this It does make it more convenient. Yes, it's a little more time consuming. Yes, you may end up having a little more trash, but it's gonna hold the longevity of the life of the food itself. Dehydrated food, dehydrated snacks are great. Apple slices. I used to dehydrate a bunch of apple slices. I used to dehydrate banana chip and make my own banana chips. You can do the same with the scobe from your kombucha. You can make a fruit leather using the scobe and mixing it with fruit and then laying it out on a pan or a parchment, so it's like a fruit roll up and it's really good for you and it's delicious. So there are ways and means. Just sometimes it takes a lot of preparation. And from my understanding, you said you're on the road basically fifty hours a week, which that is a lot of time. It's ten hours just in a few days five days, So I understand it's gonna take some prep but anything worth doing is worth doing, right. It's making sure you have that availability. You can go buy a bunch of bananas, just a full, little bunch of bananas, for less than you can buy a bag of put banana chips, wayless. I think a bunch of bananas today costs me like two dollars, and a bag of banana chips is anywhere from is usually around five bucks, is what I saw the last time I had looked at them. You might be able to get them less, but this way you can. You can treat your food the way you want it, you can season it the way you want it. You can have you know, everything's put to your liking, because a lot of times those bags of banana crisp or banana chips are it's mainly air. A lot of those bags of chips and snacks you're paying for air. You're hardly getting anything to eat out of it. It's just a waste. So really, for me, this challenge that you gave about foods and snacks wasn't just that, but also the cost effectiveness of prepping for your road trips. I mean, we should be prepping anyways. We look at putting food storage up, we look at the conveniens of keeping things good in our home but what a How do you keep them good in your vehicle? Do you travel with a few cans of canned food, something easy that you can pop open and eat straight out of, like some beans or I don't know how you feel about veggies. I'm that weirdo who could eat out of those little individual cans of spinach and be absolutely happy with a little salt and spinach. Hey, garden girl, how are you? I'm over here just talking about road snacks. I told him I was going to do a two parter, but the more I keep thinking about it, it's just it really is something I don't think people consider because it's so easy just to stop and pick up a snack. For what you're packing yourself and your kids and your family full of how much sugar and how much crap? You don't even know what's in half of that food. Anyways, I'm that person if we stop for a snack for whatever reason, I have to read the back of the ingredients for just about everything. Did you know There's only maybe one brand of jerky that I can eat, but they've changed the original brand, so unless it's an older bag of jerky, I can't eat it. And it tastes super sweet too, because of all the sugar they put in it. There's nothing wrong, and I understand it's easy, it's convenient. It's not sustainable. It's not having your own snacks. Having your own food makes the world of a difference. You know what, if you really want a sugar retreat, make up a batch of cookies before you go. Put a couple on a ziploc bag. You know, keep yourself set. If you're really that worried about it, put you can. Yeah, just take the snacks. Make your own snacks. Garden Girl actually has an amazing protein bar recipe I keep looking at. I don't know how well it would hold up in a vehicle all week, but it would be great to have as a quick, easy snack. I imagine it's something I could probably keep in my little cooler bag. Yes, and homie jerky does taste better, and I miss it. I was actually telling telling Chris about it and say, man, I haven't made my own jerky in forever. Right now, I would kill to get my hands on some good venison or rabbit. I was craving some rabbit soup the other day, and literally the next day James started talking about rabbit. I'm like, oh my god, you must have read my mind, because it's just there's something about having your own food, making your own food, knowing where it's coming from. Yes, it's worked, but it's it's phenomenal. You're gonna feel better, it's gonna taste better, it'll fit to your needs. It's just and you know what, anything worth doing is worth doing, right, It's all gonna be work at some point, whether it be my screen is doing really weird. Sorry, folks, I'm just realizing my stuff is not popping up like it should be. Huh okay, let me stay and clothes out of this, cause that sends me worried. But no, so it's it really need to you know what, a garden girl, what's one of your favorite road snacks? I don't know. I don't know what's going on with my computer. I won't have to I would definitely have to turn this off and restarted after huh okay regardless. Oh no, Yeah, I'm curious of what you take when you road trip, cause for me, having those options of snacks that I can eat one, especially if you have someone in your household or someone with a food allergy, you do have to take it very seriously because nobody else is gonna care. Oh yes, I forgot you had mentioned that before. So garden Girls said, here, the tuni pouches. Uh, the tunip pouches are great protein, which I agree with. You keep in mind those certain foods, if you're not adjusted to it, will have an effect on your digestive system. What does that mean? All right? Folks are just gonna say it out right. You're gonna fart or you're gonna poop. It's just a part of it. So that's something else that kills me when people are prepping and they say that they're gonna start keeping this, this or this, and they don't realize the effect that these types of food will have on your body, especially if you're not accustomed to a high protein diet or a high whatever it be. My favorite was when I started seeing people's store wheat are nothing wrong with that, folks. I have some wheat put up. I had a friend who's had lots of wheat. She would slowly mix in a little meat with her beef, just to cut it so it could expand even longer. Because wheat does have a high protein, but you have to take it slow. They're used to eating it. Anyone not used to eating it. Too much wheat, too much protein, it will give you diarrhea. So you heat with take with caution, because that's all you need is in an SHTF situation, you are now dealing with the explosive diarrhea could cripple you, could kill you. It could put you in a situation that you are not ready to handle. All right, let's see m hmmm, let's see pretzels. My daughter loves freeze dried strawberries. You know what, garden girl, I think that's great. I was gonna mention if you're a freeze dryer. Not everybody has a freeze dryer. Unfortunately I can't afford one. I would love to have one, I would. I know plenty of people who do have one, and freeze drying snacks are amazing to have them. I was actually considering. So there are some if you're looking at traveling on the road, there are some things to me consider taking with you. I don't know how people feel about powdered milk, but there are certain recipes that I take that are easy to fix and I use keep everything or an easily obtainable form. So then all I have to do is add water. It's it's not hard to do. But if you're looking for mills, definitely plan those out on what's going to be sustainable in a vehicle. So here in the South, we really have to consider the fact the heat. It can play a big factor into whatever we bring or take with us. I'm not saying it doesn't get hot up north, but it is something to consider. Is the climates. Is the weather going to affect what you have, like the bananas or the apples. Apples will last longer in the heat than bananas will. Strawberries will last longer than the bananas as well, but only for a certain time before they start getting a little leaky if they're fresh. I do like my fruit to the point that I will get a can of lope and cut it up and put it in baggy so I can snack on it because natural sugars. Yes, So, as Garden Girls said in the chat, totally understand. Even as you mentioned, making your own fruit leather is easy and totally customizable. Exactly. I love mango. One of my favorite kombuchas I used to make, which Melinda Lee, if you're listening, don't come after me, but my Scobe finally did die. So yes, so I have no more kombucha, no more mother Scoby. So but I love mango to the point that I have done mango strawberry kombucha and leather and I love it. But that's where being able to be customizable is a god sense. Because my partner, even though he refuses to admit it, is allergic to mango. Your face should not turn purple, your throat shouldn't hurt when you eat, trust me, I know. And so being able to customize our snacks to each individual, yes, it's a little more work, but at the same time doesn't matter if it's something as simple as that you enjoy. I don't mind putting in the extra work for somebody to have something that they can enjoy safely. You can make all sorts of things, and you can make it so easy. I'm not a bread person, so I'm sure there are things you can make around that area that you might be able to take. I'm not sure. I wouldn't think garden girl, do you just get the big bag of pretzels? Or do you do you make your own one? Oh? I did not mean to be on folks. I'm so sorry, all right, So I am real quick, gonna go ahead and go to a commercial commercial break, tongue tied, and then we will come back. We'll talk a little bit more, and we'll let you enjoy the rest of your weekend. So hold on one moment on the brink of blackouts again, as power demand reached an all time record high, overnight.

What is that your vaccine passport? And to use social credit score and be sure you have enough remaining carbon credits to enjoy today's show. And family. Your garden is the Resistance, all right. I think I may have to have a NAF after this. I've got more things to get done. But I am dragon. I am so sorry, folks. All right. You know what, y'all hear so much of the politics, y'all hear so much of everything else. I'm just staying away from it. And we talk about it enough and other shows and at other times speak in a witch. Tune in Monday for our funny film moments. I know I have shared many with y'all before. I have no quarrels about admitting my mistakes or my shortcomings. I'm human. I am no perfect prepper. I have dealt with chaos in a way that chaos feels like sometimes it has to deal with me. So tune in. I think that one's gonna be a entertaining show, something a bit light hearted, something that will be a nice change from everything else that we're currently dealing with and processing. Because the world out there, it's a mad world. It's a completely mad and insane world right now. And you know what we're making it by. We are prepping, We are still going. Yes, my garden looks like a shit storm. You know what it is, what it is, you win, Samuel Lousem. I have fallen short where I need it to because I'm not gonna lie. I've gotten frustrated and just kind of eh. But I'm also working like crazy. I've got a bunch of dump pouches set up for Snap installation and straps, so you will be seeing a bunch of those popping up on Insta. And yes they are a bit funky in color and wild and patterns. But I am using up everything I have before I invest in. I've got it down to the way I pretty much want it. Before I invest in any more material, I'm gonna knock out a few other projects. I actually did invest in a Snap machine because I'm gonna tell you this, I love you, folks, But nearly catching my hand with a hammer is not fun and oppress is a lot less noise too, especially when you're in a duplex. So wet's see how that goes. If you did not see it, James did have Drew Miller from Fortitude Ranch Collapse Survivor app on his Live with him on Insta, So if you're not following him, you need to jump over to Insta. A lot of our hosts are on there, a lot of great things going on, a lot of lives under Oh look, here we go James put up twenty hours ago feels like one. Oh wait, Liquid IV, Prepper Fit and health. You know what, James, you were on point because I use Liquid IV. It's one of the best ones. It's safer, diabetics double check into it though for each individual. I found propel is one of the worst things you can be drinking. A lot of these other ones is mainly sugar. This is one of those few drinks. I have some health issues in which I can't have certain things. It could cause me to end up, you know, prone to an infection or potentially become ill. And look, wuid IV is one of those things that I can drink and not have to worry about it hurting my kidneys. But James's page is underscore survival underscore and underscore preparedness Underscore. Yes, it's a mouthful. Find him. The picture is of it is the picture of it looks like a sunset with a dystopian bah dystopian city in the background on a road. Yeah, follow him. The man's always got lines. They're intrepid, commander. But we've got some great host y'all. Great host. I like to jabber on the Saturday mornings because why not everybody else likes to do in the evenings. I used to podcast in the evenings. Truthfully, for me, this works better. Typically I get up the show at the eight o'clock nine o'clock. Today we were running behind. But again, errors in my child's needs are always going to come first, So there's that. But no, if you have ideas of or suggestions of mills you like to travel with, or things you make that are vehicle friendly and safe, send them in let me know. I will definitely share it on air. Would love to see what mill ideas you have. Because I'm one person. What I like may not be something you like and vice versa, but someone else may enjoy that same thing. Garden girl, how's your garden been so far? Have you gotten anything out of it? I was trying to think if there were any like one can mills you can make where you prep it bet carrying masonr that's glass, you know. I'm trying to think of ways of being able to travel with things without having to put too much to it. I'd say empty peanut butter jars, but all my peanut butters glass jars. So I'm not one hundred percent certain on that one. I don't know, but a lot's coming out of Phoenix Survival Home right now. When I'm working here in the day, in between my calls with my patients or I am crocheting, I'm making up a bunch of cloths and scrubbies. They keep my time. That's how I made the Lizard Lord invasion for James, which he totally did not know was coming. I have been during the day. I will sew between my two fifteens or my thirty minute lunch. But yesterday was so exhausted that I did not sew any of my dump pouches because I did not want to have to make an error and then cry or cussed because I'm seeing ripping things out over a stupid mistake because I was tired. Now I did make something else completely different that I am kind of newly obsessed with. Don't get me wrong, folks, I enjoyed the crochet, and but I think this is gonna be a better replacement for someone of my items. And Chin and James, I'm probably gonna be two the guinea pigs for this. I've got one maid so far. Wanted to see how it worked up. I do have to add a few things, but kind of loving it. I'm like, really in love with how it's turning out. I did think about doing something on there a little differently. Since this is the first one. It's like, you know what, let's see how it goes. I think next time I may change it up a little bit. We'll see. We'll see him trying different things, seeing what I like, what I don't like. It's not the prettiest, but you know, most prototypes aren't. I've got a few things made up right now in prototypes of just random material. I would feel for anyone who walks in my house and sees what was our dining room table is covered in my sewing machine and military fabric and bright, colorful fabric and sewing pins to the point that I actually have a sewing needle, missin, I have no clue where it's at. So if anyone has a good suggestion of a good magnet that I could use in the house, let me know, because it probably wouldn't hurt to have one for those instances that a wild pin gets louice and takes off running. You know what, I would also like to hear beyond your recipes or food ideas, which if you are not an element, get it in there now. We have so many different chat rooms. We have the Live Chat, the Open Chat, Family Cookbook, Pappy's Iron Paradise, that's right, our own Pappy Open just for the fun of it, which we put a lot of jokes, humor, memes, gifts, you name it. Let's see world events, US economy and business and more. Not gonna tell you at all because you should be a part of a group. You should be in here chatting with us, because that is where the real action happens. Even if you're not sure you're into this whole prepping thing. If you're not sure this is what you want, take a look. You might be surprised. You might be surprised from the stuff you're already doing. Does make you a prepper? Sure you don't want the title, Okay, that's fine. It's nothing wrong with being called a prepper. We are finding over time this evil stigma that we used to have over the name slowly weigh in a way, because you were seeing articles and clips and people stating that preppers might be onto something. And now now these people, these homesteaders, anytime we try to do anything to fin for ourselves and make ourselves selves sufficient, we are a threat. Your garden is an issue. Did you know that your garden is causing way too much pollution? Huh? It shouldn't cost you an arm and a leg to eat healthy. It shouldn't. And in the store, if you notice organic costs twice as much processed foods and candy, or cheap fruits and vegetables are ridiculous, to the point that right now there's a huge listeria outbreak at Walmart, all these and a lot of places. There's I think a list of ten different stores in which their produce have came back positive for lysteria. Can you believe that? How terrified is that? This is why even the little bit of produce that I am able to get out of my garden. I am proud to have grown My walking onions are delicious because guess what the entire plant can be eaten. It's great. They're not super big onions. Walking onions don't expect to ever get giant bulbs. They're not. But you know what, their taste is a little sweeter. It's really nice, though. I do enjoy the stalks can get a little hearty or witty at times if you're not careful, because if you let them overgrown, then have shoots. But the young ones you can clip right off a stone and cut that up for like green onion or chives. It's delicious. Did you know I'm really going down the food right now. My biggest issue I've ran into is I was finding out about how much pesticides are on your food and produce, which is why you should always wash your food, always, wash your produce always. And I was reading something where you don't have to do a soap uh quick rints will actually do fine. I do sprits my stuff with vinegar and then wash 'em. I the amount of pesticides on blueberries. Did you know it was one of the highest highest content of pesticides and toxins are on blueberries that I've quit buying blueberries. I will get 'em locally, I will get 'em from someone who I know rosem. But I refuse to buy something without much poison on it. Even if you wash 'em, I don't care. How will you wash 'em? I don't think you can get all that crap off. I don't. I don't at all. You know what, that's something else I would love to hear. What food did you start avoiding once you found out the truth behind it? And I mean, like the pesticides are the toxins. I don't have a problem with rice. Now, that's something I grew up learning. There's bugs and rice, Okay, that's a given. Hence why every time I buy a twenty pound bag of rice, I vacuum sell one pound increments so I don't have to worry about rice weavils or the rice bugs hatching. That's just a part of it. I mean, it would really kill you if you knew how much the FDA allows in our everyday food that we don't know about, or certain things under a microscope. It's disturbing. It's disgusting and it is something of nightmares. Now, I'm not trying to terrify you away from food. I'm not trying to fear mongery here, but I want you to realize there is pride in what you do when you do it for yourself. There's no shame if you go to the store and buy it, there's not. But take pride in the work that you put to feed your family, whether it be making your own goods, growing your own goods. There is nothing wrong in what you do for your family, nothing at all. Be proud of that because there's pride, and there's one more step closer to self sufficiently, self sufficients and independence that they can't take away from you. They can try, but we all know we are all stubborn individuals who will always have we will always be ready. We will It's just a part of it, all right. So let's see here again. I'm gonna keep saying this. If you have not gotten your tickets for Prepper Camp, please do so. Now they are going up. They are gonna go up, and this camp is always sold out. Right before Prepper Camp, you have to have the tickets before going. They do not sell them at the door. Prepper Camp is where it's at. Three days of sixty four classes a day, a class every hour, eight classes every hour. There is no way you will have time to take all of the classes. If you bought a ticket, make sure you print out your ticket before you get there. They don't do the electronic ones because they'll take just trust me. Trust me. Print out your ticket. You'll need it with you. Print out your map, print out your class schedule, bring a notebook, bring a pencil, pen crayon, whatever form you want to write in. Make sure you do so because it is a blast and people are like, oh, I hate school. This isn't just school, this is life, this is education with tons of awesome people. PBN will be here, We'll have our booths, Dave Jones, myself, James, Ryan Beuford, tolemy On Tilm, Phil Rabbley. Don't know if Andy's gonna be there, Andrew is gonna be there or not. Why do I say Amy, I don't know where that came from. Andrew, I don't know if he's coming. Sarah Hathaway will be there with her her whole crew. Chen will be there. I mean, come on, folks, we will all practically be there other than just a couple hosts. We understand why they can't make it, but we hope someday to have all of PBAN network there. That would be phenomenal. Phenomenal. Also coming up in May of next year. Make sure I say this right, because let's see the Heartland Self Reliance Conference. It is going to be in Ohio in May of next year. Okay, they are phenomenal. Actually we know this man. He's at Prepper camp every year. You know what, shout out to Jess Smith. He is the I believe, the everyday Prepper. Oh lordy, dad, my heine for this. This goes to show you, speaking of which, if you don't know which, you should all know that we talk about this non stop. Yes, every day Prepper is Jess Smith. He's the one who's putting it together. And it is gonna be fun. It's gonna be in the Heartland of the Amish Country. But for proper camp, it is Rick and Jane, Jane Lord, Rick and Jane Austin Rick the old Goat and Jane Sweet Jane. I love Jane, I love them both. They're amazing. These people are phenomenal. And if you're not going or you can't make it this year, put it on your calendar or a reminder to go next year or try. You're missing out on so much. We have an entire market where we have goods. There's great networking and communication, and it's probably one of the safest places in the States you'll ever be at. But I am going to call it from here.
