[00:00:20] of the mic, and here's your show. And welcome look on the bright side of things, mom. Yeah. So, stuff is going on. Yeah, there's, I mean, there's a lot going on in the world
[00:01:40] and quite frankly, every time we do one of these
[00:01:43] current events type of episodes,
[00:01:45] we could literally sit here and talk members only, but they dive deep into what's going on in the world. And that's kind of like some of the stuff that we're talking about today. I based it off of what they're talking about. Um, just because, I mean, they, they hit on target key issues that are happening around the world that we don't see in the fricking, like the news
[00:03:01] does not pick up because it just does not serve a, a, a purpose.
[00:03:05] So our news does not pick it up, And it's something that we have buckets of, or if not, just a lot of food of. And that's things that I was looking at, I was like, okay, well, what can I store of? And a lot of, that's the biggest thing
[00:04:21] is one of the big key items on a lot of websites
[00:04:26] is plain Quaker oats. do a test on chimps and rats and stuff like that because there's just, now I'm not saying like we're so close to rats and everything and chimps. Um, but some people are, I mean, but some, some people are, I mean, well, people are really, I mean, and that's why they do a, they do, uh, test on animals before they do on humans because of how close, um, some, you know,
[00:05:44] a lot of the DNA is, and if it's a lot. So, and this, and the reason I brought this up was just because of, you know, let's, we need to start as people, as even preppers, you know, storing food away, we need to start looking at what we're putting in our bodies. We need to start looking at the, the additives, we need to start looking at the food and making
[00:07:02] sure that it's true to what it is. spiked our grocery bill a bit, but by eating less junk, specifically by removing refined sugars and severely decreasing the carbohydrates we were eating, I'm in a position now where my blood sugar is more stable now than it has been since I was in my 20s. My wife has lost 50 freaking pounds in eight months.
[00:08:24] We are both in infinitely better health, and yes, this has been paired with an exercise herbicides and all those things are kind of required because of the sheer volume of food they're trying to grow on X amount of land and the intensity of the yield they're trying to produce. But I still question, should we be seeing that showing up in our food supply? Should it be making its way to the store shelves and into the bodies of our nation?
[00:09:41] And when I look around at my fellow man in this country where obesity is going through gets is way healthier for you than actually eating a protein base like chicken and beef and all kinds of stuff and granted like some of these places some of these articles some of these quote unquote like the scientists and the quote the articles that are based on science they can shove them up their frickin butts because I'm not eating bugs. I'm a frickin
[00:11:02] complete carnivore like you're putting in your body. Like that's what we're trying to get across the board here. Is you know what, if you like your oats, then eat your fricking oats. I could care less. But just know that this is potentially
[00:12:22] what's going in your body.
[00:12:23] Is there a healthier way?
[00:12:25] Possibly, there might be something healthier out there. just dropped a hand grenade into all of your credibility with me for the rest of your life. And that was not just a single scientist, that was a group of them that tried to assert that. They literally rebuilt the food pyramid and included all this junk in it that no rational human being thinks is more healthy than anything else.
[00:13:41] But these idiots would have you believe that highly processed foods are more healthy for
[00:13:45] you than eating red meat.
[00:13:46] And I just can't the face of it. Right. But that's what I'm saying. Yeah. That's what I'm saying is, uh, I mean, if you look at the, if you look at the diet of the humans, uh, the humanoids over the last thousands of years, I mean,
[00:16:06] Uh, if you've ever been to that store, um, I've sold some stuff by eating crickets.
[00:16:09] Yeah, they're, and they weren't that bad.
[00:16:15] Uh, however, uh, it's again, we're, we're, we need to think realistically here
[00:16:19] and you can't base off, you cannot base an entire diet off of fricking bugs or anything like that.
[00:16:20] Like, um, yeah, I, I can't get over, I don't complain about it a lot because I don't think anybody cares, but this podcast has had a copyright strike on every single episode we have posted for the last six months. Every single one of them. And I've beaten almost every single one of them, but I still have to freaking go through
[00:17:41] the process of contesting the copyright strike because I personally composed all of our intro fact that people are expressing their first amendment let alone their second amendment rights and yeah what's funny is they want to restrict these like these are the same people that they want to restrict your first and second amendment rights by using their first amendment right and also their second
[00:19:03] amendment right because half of these people have exact like they have that security to where they don't care. Their people will kill somebody and protection of them is what they say. And they walk away scot-free. So yeah, these people are ridiculous. Yeah, but see, as long as it's not them touching the scary black hack rifle, then their hands are clean
[00:20:23] and they can just conveniently forget
[00:20:24] that they paid somebody else to act in their own defense
[00:20:27] using violence and firearms. From Justin Wagner, Everytown for Gun Safety, YouTube is a cesspool of violent and irresponsible gun content. Videos that teach civilians military shooting tactics or whose sole purpose is to glamorize fully automatic weapons of war go far beyond educational content for responsible civilian
[00:21:40] gun owners and shouldn't be you should have like a bolt action 22 for squirrel hunting and none of these freaking idiots understand that responsible means you don't use them unless it's appropriate to use them. So based on solely on hunting. Yes, because I've seen a lot of freaking deer running around with freaking you know,
[00:23:02] plate carriers on trying to evade the cool story with goats with guns on them like that that Okay guns But like this is this is the genesis of our country and people were running around with letters of mark and armed
[00:24:21] Warships that were privately owned this would be like in today's it okay when people- Why did you let me have that rant without the blood pressure warning? That was the perfect time to put it in. Nah, it wasn't that bad. It wasn't worth it. But so what's funny is when people are like, oh no, people, you know, we did not have like machine guns and all that stuff back in the day. I want you to Google the Puckle gun.
[00:25:42] Yes. Like I want you, if you literally think
[00:25:44] that there was no quote unquote machine guns
[00:25:46] back in the day in Yeah, but that's the thing though, is like if you think about it, I mean, yeah, I don't know. That's my discussion with like a lot of friends and stuff like that is today's modern,
[00:27:00] should civilians today own modern military arsenal?
[00:27:05] And I hands down say yes. at the M1 Grand look at the trench shotguns that they have nowadays like the Ithaca trench shotguns like all these guns the 1911 like all of these guns the only reason is because the people are scared of what the mainstream media has dubbed an assault rifle quote unquote is they they've made it such a bad term and they demonized it like that doesn't seriously
[00:28:22] like that does not do anything and and the the school They went through and they searched all the vehicles in the school parking lot You know me they they actually and I remember they had they made a comment about how many guns and bows they found
[00:29:41] In the in the vehicles no school shooting no school shootings at all. It's a mental health issue
[00:30:44] narrative. If it was a white male who was like, you know what, I hate the world. It would be it would still today it would be all over the media.
[00:30:48] But you'd have to be straight and preferably a Christian because if you can get all those
[00:30:53] touch points in there together, then we got a party.
[00:30:55] Yeah. Oh yeah. And that's the thing is like so the handful like, I mean, the the Nashville
[00:31:00] shooter transgender against a Christian school, they are still trying to bury the manifesto They have done nothing but they have done research on humans. On how to mind control humans. Tuskegee experiment. Yeah. I mean, yeah, just Google. I mean, and that's the thing is I hate using Google as an example because it is filtered. But you can still find stuff. Look up and do some research.
[00:32:21] But time out, if you can Google Tuskegee experiment and MKUltra and you can find stuff, then that Well, look at the the kid that in Oakland in Oakland, Michigan the parents the mom I believe the mom I think the dad is he has either been charged or will be But they are being they're being charged and they're being found guilty of basically a betting and like I mean How and assisting him with his shooting which honestly like them sitting there and be like
[00:33:42] Texting him they have text of the parents. Hey, we need to talk to you. Hey, don't do it
[00:34:46] I mean, I'm never going to err on the side of signing off on the government instituting safe storage laws because I just have trust issues with the government and I have full
[00:34:51] expectation those laws would be abused.
[00:34:53] Oh yeah, they will.
[00:34:55] But I also am that person who says that if you have, if there is any hope of children
[00:35:01] being in your house ever, you'm coming over I secure my firearms like I either close it I either close my door Again, I have never had an issue where the kid was upstairs or anything up, you know, like, or even remotely next to my room or or anything. But it's hey, what are you doing? Okay, you know, and so and that's the thing is like, I mean, and that goes that goes into as far as knowing like you're just knowing other places too.
[00:37:44] If I go to somebody else's house and I see a gun. It is the power of life and death. My daughter is 11. She's been getting gun safety speeches since she was four years old because I have firearms in this home. I want her to be safe around them. She knows how to shoot. She knows gun safety, but also because I'm going to send her into other people's homes.
[00:39:01] And I would like to believe that having had conversations with those people, they'll secure
[00:39:04] their firearms. That is the only way to put this decision firmly in the parents' hands, is that the parent has to share the blame with the child, and once the child's 18, the kid, that's on the kid. Adult, it's not the kid. But anyway. Okay, so going ahead, Andrew, run.
[00:40:20] Nah, we'll start this.
[00:40:21] So Trump versus NATO.
[00:40:24] So Trump has been recently, he was basically, Go on. Yeah, I mean, my personal feeling on NATO is like, I just, I have a personal issue, which is not meant to be construed to be like 100% isolationist, but I have a personal issue with the idea that the United States should have the bill for about 70% of NATO and that's not strictly accurate in dollars. But when you consider the fact that if ever there was a major engagement with NATO members, we're going to be the one sending the majority of our military to go deal with it because the rest of these countries have such incredibly small and underfunded militaries, then it
[00:43:03] kind of lends cred I got a certain point the gravy train is stopping all of you idiots get off at the next station Figure out your own friggin civil defense. We need to bring our boys home I don't know if y'all noticed
[00:44:20] But we kind of have this little thing going on the southern border and we could kind of use our military right now to secure
[00:44:25] It if anybody gave it in just thinking out loud
[00:45:24] And that's how it's always been is the person with the bigger stick
[00:45:27] They they will they will take over
[00:45:29] And so be it
[00:45:36] And that's the thing is and if it you know and that's the thing though is if a country like I mean take you take
[00:45:38] Nazi Germany for example
[00:45:41] The way they were just kind of mowing through
[00:45:44] some of these countries if you have one country that is
[00:46:47] not be sending a single penny to Ukraine. We should not be sending a single bit of arms. We should not be sending personnel, which we are. We should not be sending people to
[00:46:52] Ukraine. We should not be sending a single freaking dime to Ukraine. Let Russia and Ukraine
[00:46:57] sort their shit out. The US should not be involved, but we are because it's a proxy
[00:47:02] war against Russia. It's a money laundering scheme is what pretty much. Egypt is. Yeah. Egypt is pretty pissed off right now at Israel and they're building a concrete block wall right on Israel's border and it's raising some concerns because Egypt because of what Israel basically going
[00:48:21] to war and massacring the Palestinians and I say Russian Ukraine right now could very easily spill in neighboring countries very quickly. Any one of those countries would be well within their legal rights to defend their borders. It's worth looking into because you have to bear in mind, a lot of the reason behind NATO being formed in the first place was to support globalism.
[00:49:43] If you have all these member countries... Okay.
[00:49:47] We don't have time to working very well right now. So I kind of, I mean, that's the thing is so yeah, we and that this is something that we all need to be watching. Again, the news isn't covering it because it doesn't fit a narrative.
[00:52:22] But yeah, we need to be watching the southern border and that's where I disagree with the state of Texas racist and bigots
[00:55:00] and everything else because how dare you not want brown people in your state.
[00:55:04] Even though I hate to break it to legally, I don't think Texas could have loaded these people
[00:56:21] up in a buzz and drove them through a checkpoint back to Mexico. really didn't want them there unless they were working in their gardens or their kitchens frickin no I agree with you on that because the fact that yeah they're getting pissed off now that they're getting shipped across the United States like that's what's really pissing them off and that's what's pissing people off and the people of Chicago and everything like it's actually interesting seeing
[00:57:40] Illinois and even New York and even some of these other cities when the
[00:57:45] politicians are like hey if you have an open door or if you have the FUDs who are out there saying, well, nah, it's not my bolt action, or it's not my flintlock, or it's not my black powder, so it's okay, I don't mind if they ban it, you know, I don't think anybody should actually have it. But at the same time, they throw a fit, they're gonna throw a fit when it comes to their doorstep. And that's what's happening right now with the immigration,
[00:59:02] with the illegal immigration and stuff,
[00:59:04] is it's come to their doorstep.
[00:59:07] It's, they're completely fine with it and he's freaking getting religious about locking down the border, why didn't that fat moron shut the border down his first freaking day in office? Why did he wait? I'm not saying he shouldn't have done it. I'm saying he should have done it on day one. Like all of his rhetoric and all of his bull crap about, I need to defend my state. Well, you didn't need to defend your state for the last
[01:00:22] couple of years, you freaking idiot. And that's my gripe. and we need to keep an eye on him because I just don't trust politicians and you shouldn't either even if you have especially if you vote for them you should be watched to be assured well you should we as Americans and this is like fundamental to our cultural DNA is to distrust our government if you trust your government you're not being an American
[01:01:41] we're supposed to mistrust them that's the whole point it like so I would like actually We'll try to make a better job at Scheduling the show in advance so it lets people know let the patreons know Because I'd like to get a topic this topic I think would be good to hear from multiple people Like get some input from everybody. So
[01:03:03] So again
[01:03:06] Where's my mouse at here
[01:04:05] to me and be like, hey, how should I do like storing beans and rice and stuff like this? And like, you know, people ask me like, what are the first things I should get when I'm
[01:04:10] into prepping?
[01:04:11] And my first reaction is I've been doing this for eight years.
[01:04:13] Y'all just got interested.
[01:04:16] So like, I would encourage people that if you are into preparedness, and especially if you're
[01:04:20] not shy about being into preparedness, because that's a wall. Don't do that again. Well, all right. So before I'm going to stop you there, because before you over explain the topic and before you go 10 minutes over, um, let's stop it right there. And, uh, again, if you guys, if anybody listened to this, if you have something
[01:05:44] on, if you have something to go along with this, I'm really curious and we'll
[01:05:47] share it.
[01:06:42] I'm going to do a little bit of a quick
