Standing on the crater, like the prophets once said, and the ashes are all cold now, no more bullets are dead. Whisper, tale to tale of the brothers go. Desolation Mess we made Watching From the Circus

For the games to begin Gladiators Draw that Hello, hello And welcome to a second episode Of Investigator of podcasts Tonight, it is 922 p.m. Here from South Carolina,

United States of America, in the southeast. We thank each and every one of you guys from listening around the world. We love all of you. I am Chad. And I am Sherry. Oh my God, are you seriously? He usually says joined by my

beautiful wife and sometimes he just says wife but well i was getting to that yeah but anyways i'm sherry glad you guys are so here you're here you're so here you're so here bro yeah you're here and we're ready for this podcast this is going to be a great one i think so um i think this is extremely extremely important podcast this is uh the new world order survival what do you need to do to survive and should we actually be worrying about this now some of you may have family members, some of you may be preppers. You know, the way I titled this podcast, I'm sure there's going to be a lot of preppers that are listening.

But for those that are not preppers or survivalists, we need to think about and we really need to dig deep a little bit tonight on what we actually should be doing in reality in 2022, July, what we should be starting to think about. Now, like I said, you may have family members out there that are saying, well, I'm buying this and I'm doing this and I'm doing this. maybe some are doing very little and some are doing a lot. And then maybe some of you are like, well, I don't know, that kind of sounds crazy. But we're going to talk about why it's not crazy.

Well, and why it's important to think about the why. The why is right in front of our faces. And many of us are not even seeing the why. And the why is because it's coming. The world's crumbling. Yeah, it's really coming. And it's right in front of our faces. Some people are blind and some people are seeing it.

Some people are woke. Yeah, some people are woke and some people are awoke or some people are awake. Yeah, there's a big difference in woke and awake. Woke and awake. We are the awakening. Yeah, we're the awake. But woke, the woke are actually asleep. Yeah, they are asleep.

That's why they can't even spell awake. They spell it with O. So, yeah, just so you know. Yeah, so we're awake. And it's really important to really think about that because our own president is saying a new world. order is coming out of his own mouth over and over. I wish we could like patch up all the different speeches together and how many times he said that.

You know, he went from the new world order to now the liberal world order. Yeah. And I don't know if you noticed he changed that little word in the front from new to liberal. Yeah. Biden on the 4th of July said, I can sum up America in one word. Wait, wait, wait, hold on what? What? And I asked chat, I'm like, what is he trying to say? I know I have fumble words, but I had, I could not even make out what he was trying to say.

Yeah, Sherry, you shouldn't be talking shit about Biden. A lot of times when I'm trying to say a word, I give hints at least to what I'm trying to say. Listen to Sherry. Oh, man. Seriously. But anyways, that was a joke. But yeah, so it's the global reset, man. This is happening.

It's been going on for a while now. And our earlier podcast, we did a COVID. Shit, I just said the word. Damn it. Oh my gosh. Just a blue mark. Yeah. Dang.

We got a blue thing. Every time Chad says COVID. Oh, you just said it again. Oh, my God. You have to take a drink. No, no, not a drink. Yeah. No, because I'll say it more.

But no, so anyways. Yeah. So now we're going to get tagged with the blue thing. But it's kind of hard to talk about the Great Reset, Global Reset, without saying that word, or without even referring to. the absolute upside down that has happened over the past three years. If you watched the show Stranger Things, which has been trending on Twitter and other platforms

and everywhere for like the past month, and then, you know, I think it's in its, I don't even know it because I haven't been following it. Fourth or fifth season, we watched a couple seasons of it, but, you know, the basis of Stranger Things is that they enter a realm of what they call the upside down. It's almost like another.

dimension. Right. And you would think almost that what we're in now is another dimension. Yeah, it's like the stranger things. It's just not what it's supposed to be. Yeah. And even with our CERN podcast, if you guys go back and listen the episode before last about CERN, which is that basically particle collider that they are trying to find other particles that existed to create our universe, they found the God particle in 2010. And there are scientists that say that it's very dangerous to be messing with not only the God particle, but any particles.

And we're trying to play God. Right. Because we might be opening portals that we should not be opening. Yeah, we've actually had quite a few people reach out. I've looked at our email today. We've got messages about their opinions, you guys' opinions on what the CERN thing is. A lot of you believe it's demonic that they're trying to open a portal to hell. To heaven and hell is what I've heard too.

Yeah. Crazy thing about. But anyways, this is about survival. It's prepping for survival and the economic collapse of 2022. But before we get started, let's do a stealth word and say code blue instead of co, you know what? Code blue. You know, my best friend and I, at least I have a code purple. That was our like word.

When we couldn't talk, we'd say purple, but now everyone knows. So we've got to change that word. But anyways, let's just call it code blue. And by the way, guys, before we get started, do want to say we have a listener that is actually he's been on the podcast before he's been on the podcast I believe a couple times and he's going to continue to be on our podcast in the future many other times actually our 9-11 podcast that we're planning on we still haven't got done yet but he's going to be on that podcast as well but he is he he's been a listener for a while but he's

you know to us a family member now you know and actually family and a friend like he's even given my daughter advice. Yeah. Like, that's how close we've become with him. So Al lost his mother. Won't go into detail of, like,

too much about who Al is and all that. But he lost his mother recently. So, you know, all of us definitely pray for him and his family. We are praying for you, Al. And we're definitely praying for you.

And as soon as, I mean, you know, you can never get over that. But, you know, anyway, we can help. And anyway,

we can, you know, at least if it's an hour to get your mind off of things. after all of this is kind of calming down a little bit? Well, Saturday is the day that they lay hurt his mom to rest. So that's going to be a while. But, you know, we're just, we think about him constantly because we know, you know,

it's so hard to lose a parent. Oh, absolutely. You know, we both have been through it, and it's really hard. Yeah, and so we, and that's the thing about this podcast, for those that are new listeners or whatever, we've talked to so many of you guys on the phone. I've talked to, I've talked to people in. I call them family in Australia for hours. Even Canada.

Even like places in Iowa and all kinds of crazy places. Yeah. We've talked to like a lot of people. And a lot of you reach out and we try to reach back to, I think, all of you. I mean, not all of you, but like that's why I always say, reach out to us on Facebook or Twitter or one of those because it's easier for us to kind of access that. Our emails is filled up because that's our email is what everyone has access. to on all the platforms they listen to us on. And so that's where everyone sends everything.

And it's just hard to... It's just too much. Yeah, it's hard to get through that. We can't go through that. But thank you for those of you that have reached out. And I think Chad does do a great job of responding. I think I've responded to one or two. And I'll say, oh, by the way, this is Sherry, not Chad.

Yeah, and the thing is, I mean, with our listeners, we, I mean, we'll call them. We'll shoot the shit with them. Oh, yeah. We'll talk about the things that, like, we don't talk about on air or whatever. I mean, we love you guys. You're a part of our family. Yeah, absolutely. Especially people that have been here for, you know, four years now, I guess.

Yeah, I think it's not more of like our listeners. It's more of a family that we're, you know, we're all gathering together right now in our living rooms, doing what we're doing normally. Or if you're driving to work or whatever you're doing. Or they might be at work. Yeah, or at work listening. You know, we all have our little routines and, you know, you're our family. Yeah, for sure. So anyways, Al, Al, we're praying for.

you were praying for your family. We're praying for all of you. Absolutely. And your kids. We'll definitely, we'll be talking to Al again sooner than later. And, but until then, we'll definitely be praying for you. Yeah, we're praying for you. Definitely. So, guys, let's get on to prepping for survival of the economic collapse of 2022.

We're going to talk about 12 ways that you guys need to be preparing for what's coming. The thing is, we've talked about conspiracy theories. And we've talked about, you know, five to, eight years ago, even as little as three years ago, we talked about food shortages or inflation. When this administration was asked about recession, they acted like that was a conspiracy theory, that that could even possibly happen.

The unfortunate thing is, regardless of politics or what side you're on, this administration is completely incompetent. This government is incompetent, and it's not just one side or the other. there is incompetence in government across the board, no matter what side you're on. And at some point in time, we have to understand and realize,

as we talked about in the beginning of this podcast, that the World Economic Forum and the New World Order is coming. It is not going to be stopped. They will do whatever they have to do to ensure that full collapse of the powerful nations' systems do collapse. because a strong country is not a primary candidate for a New World Order. A country that believes in their country's values, a country that believes in their country, a country that has pride and patriotism, a country that believes in freedom.

Yeah, a country that believes in all these things is not a country that you can easily persuade to join the New World Order and the Great Reset. There's a reason, and we're not going to get into elections, and whether or not it was stolen or not. But what I will say is that everything has happened for a reason and the way media has treated everything since Trump became in office even before was all part of the plan.

They needed, they had to have this administration and this team of instigators to the New World Order in office because they knew someone that was going to go against this agenda. And by the way, this is not just Democrats. There are Republicans on board with this as well. Anyone that is going to go against the agenda and love their country and be for patriotism is not going to just succumb to the New World Order.

And who they have an office in the United States right now and who they place an office in many countries, including Canada, Justin Trudeau. We look at Australia and what happened with, the code blue there. Good job, babe. Code blue, yes. And even in Europe, they're looking at their prime minister in thinking that he's not great anymore. Yeah, well, they've hated him for a while, Boris Johnson and, you know, all that.

But yeah, so you have all these countries that, but, you know, keeping in mind, Canada, essentially all the countries that, and we've talked about us on another New World Order podcast before, the countries like Canada and even part of the country, and people in Australia and different places in Europe. The ones that had the strictest lockdowns and basically killed their economy are the ones that have been a part of the Young Global Leaders Foundation underneath the World Economic Forum.

These were leaders that were groomed to be the New World Order leaders that would, in turn, go with the New World Order's agenda and bring their country to the grasp of the New World Order. And these are, I mean, a great prime example is who we have in office now. I'm not going to necessarily say Biden, because I don't think he has a clue what the hell is going on. But who is in place and why they're in place in the United States, including Justin Trudeau and Canada.

These are people that are put in place for this exact reason. I mean, Canada, the United States have always been prideful countries. Australia has been as well. they have a constitution not far off from the United States, but United States has always been known as land of the free. Now we're in a situation where we're not as free, and we're not going to be. We keep losing rights every day.

Yeah. There's already new variants. Our first and second amendments are the most important that we're losing. But listen, everybody, you guys, this is not a conspiracy theory. It is happening right before your eyes. It's happening right now. And get ready right now, why you still have, the ability to get ready.

Because as we saw with the Code Blue, aka Cove, as we saw with that, I mean, look at the damn toilet paper shortages and everything else. And by the way, 2% right now, 2% of the world's global shipments,

as far as ships, are stalled or not able to get anywhere right now. Two percent. They're stuck in the sea. Two percent don't sound a lot, but it's a lot. Yeah. And then you've got the price of fuel. And you've got fuel prices and you wonder why you wonder why the price of food is going up. And it's going to continue to go up.

It does. And when you go to the grocery store, there'll be aisles that are just empty. I've never seen a grocery store that has not been restocked to the fullest. Like now, you walk down grocery store aisles and maybe the whole aisle is empty or a partial part of the aisle. Or there's no chicken one day. Or there's no meat another day. or there's no this another day. Especially like children's infant milk or whatever.

What's it called? Infamil and all that stuff. It's gone. Formula. Baby formula. Yeah, baby formula. Thank you. But you see it with your own eyes.

Yeah. Yeah. And so we have to get ready while we still can. Now, I don't know if you guys have heard about Venezuela. Venezuela essentially had a tragic economic collapse And we have to consider whether we are ready for what happened in Venezuela Venezuela is a disaster area It is a place that people are striving to survive

Because their complete Economy meltdown happened And most of that was on the back of socialism 99% of it And so, you know, it's funny because we, this administration here in the United States has compared and wanted to go on the back of things that Venezuela's done. Exactly. Knowing that Venezuela's economy collapsed, knowing that their people are starving. And this is something that we got to prepare for.

Exactly. Our government wants to be, aka socialist, communist, communist. That's what they're trying to do right now is they're trying to make us a socialist place. Yeah, and it's not communist or dictatorship. ship. Yeah, it does not work with people that want freedom. So look, here's the things we got to think about and we're going to break these down. We have to stock the supplies necessary to sustain life. That's number one. If you think about any survival situation, you have to have supplies or things available that you can sustain life to where you're not dependent on any outside anything, entity, organization, or government.

You have to have stock supplies and we're going to cover those, but you have to have those. but you have to have those. Number two, stockpile valuable tools. That's number two. Number two. What the hell? Tool. Tool.

Two. That's number tool. Tool. You have to have valuable tools. Number three, you have to start thinking about growing your own food and the ability to do so. Number four, you got to prepare to provide for yourself or do without because that's the way it might end up. And it's going closer to that. There are people in this country right now.

We think about homelessness. We think about all of this stuff that, you know, we had a homeless issue before the disease outbreak. Yeah, it was bad before. But now it is rampant. It is rampant. They're everywhere now. People are homeless. Yeah, there's a story about a lady I was reading the other day.

She last, let's see, not two years ago, she was making $150,000 a year. Now she's homeless and doing everything she can to survive with two kids. And, you know, this is the unfortunate cost of what, has happened. And it's not the unfortunate cost. It is the predetermined cost of what they knew exactly what they wanted to do. They knew they wanted to drive more people to starvation and they wanted at the same time to transfer the wealth to the high elite in the corporations that we're going to take over. We look at organizations or companies like BlackRock.

BlackRock owns everything. They literally own so many things. And now they're buying all the land. All the land everywhere. Yes. So that we have to be dependent on them. Yeah, they're buying up all the land. They're putting in condominiums or apartment areas. They're putting them closer to cities. And if you look at the Great Reset and the New World Order and what they want, they want you to live in closer cities.

They want you to not, they basically don't want you to own anything. That is their plan. They don't want you to own anything. They want to make it impossible for you to own anything. You've got to rent everything. You've got to work for what you use or work for food or work for this. And it's absolutely. bananas.

You guys need to prepare to live with little or no electricity is number five. We got to think about it. If any of you have ever had your electricity off, a power, like a snowstorm, you didn't pay the bill, whatever the case was, and you have no electricity, and how you kind of internally freak out, because that necessity of life of what you have said, this is a necessity, all of a sudden no longer exists. So your way of life in that moment is gone. And then all the, and you know why deep down inside you freak out?

And you get angry. You get uncomfortable feeling. You get anxious. It's because you're not prepared for that. Right. It happens in an instant. Yeah. It's like your electricity is gone.

Bye. Yeah. The same thing can happen if we're not prepared for what's coming. Right. And that even goes with your water too. And it's going to be long term and it's not something you can turn back on. Yeah. So keep that in mind.

And even losing your water too is. another necessity that people don't realize how important it is. Like you can even flush a toilet without water. Yeah. You're right. So number six is strengthen your financial status as much as you can while you can for the ability to be able to afford whether it be land purchases, tool purchases, equipment, so on. It's not as much as having finances to be able to pay things when the world and the economy collapses. It's more. It's more. Well, it's more so being able to spend your money now to prepare for when money doesn't matter. Right.

Because there is going to be a day that money does not matter anymore because of the way our government is using money right now. It's making the dollar worth nothing. Well, and so let's get to that briefly. The reason, and this is a thing that no one understands. You know, we've got, we've seen it happen with the Canadian Freedom Rally with the truckers in Canada. Canada where Canada froze these truck drivers' cryptocurrency because they had them in cryptocurrency wallets that were essentially controlled by the government

rather than having a key to harness their own wallet. We have seen the absolute asinine, incredible, catastrophic spending of governments around the world, and especially in the United States, like money grew on trees. But what it was is money was always supposedly in the United States

backed up by gold and the Federal Reserve. And we have a Federal Reserve podcast, by the way, you guys should listen to it. But our money is not backed up by anything. We don't even know if there's any gold at all in the Federal Reserve. And by the way, the Federal Reserve is not even federal.

It's not a part of the government. It is a private entity. Yes. The World Bank controls all money and currency. period. The World Economic Forum and the New World Order want to create a one world currency, which is why they are starting to regulate heavily the people's currency, which would be Bitcoin, Dogecoin, whatever it is. The ability for people to be able to trade money in any way outside of government control is what they're regulating, because if they can't regulate people

being able to trade things within themselves, then they cannot control people. You have to control the money to control people. So what I'm telling you is I'm not saying go out and take your life savings out and spend it all right now But what I am saying is instead of maybe buying a new Jeep or a new boat or a new whatever the case may be You might want to look at things that are going to sustain you if all hell breaks loose and no money existing Well a boat might help no I'm saying land I'm saying places to farm places to have animals You can fish on a boat babe yeah you can but where where's your gas coming from when you run out Oh, that's true.

Well, unless you make it a battery. Unless you have a cell boat. A battery operated a boat. But anyways, I would not go that route. I mean, you can listen to Sherry or not, but that's up to you. If you guys go out and buy a boat and you're screwed, Sherry's fault. I'm going to say, go get some batteries and, like, transform it. Other things, you need to learn basic skills.

I know that sounds general, but learn basic skills. There are so many people out there. maybe many of you are listening that don't know basic skills and what do I mean by basic skills? I'm talking about mechanical things. I'm talking about construction slash woodworking. I'm talking about and I'm saying the most basic aspects of that, right? Being able to measure boards and be able to cut boards and being able to do certain things like that. I'm talking about even possibly physical fitness. You have to understand that. when the world collapses, the economy collapses,

or you were given the choice of you either do this or you're not getting food, water, or anything else. Because I'm telling you guys, it's coming. It's coming because a part of this one-world currency is going to be a social credit score. It is. They've talked about this in the World Economic Forum. They've talked about it.

They're actually implemented in China now. You either comply or you don't. If you don't comply, you're not getting any of the necessities that you need. Yes. You got to come up with that on your own. Yes, but they still don't want you to do that. You know, we've talked about us in another podcast, but probably about four or five years ago. Now, we watch a lot of survival episodes of YouTube.

We watch everything. We've done a lot of outdoor survival camping stuff ourselves. I've always done it my entire life. We were actually considered for a Discovery Channel show. Sherry and I were, which is crazy. Poor survival show, which we never got called. called back on. Screw you.

Probably because I said I'm in charge of the fire. Yeah. But anyways. So four or five years ago, and I remember I was laying in bed, I was talking about us another podcast, but there were a lot of people about four or five years ago on YouTube that had built their entire careers on teaching people, survival, bushcraft, things of basic skills in the wilderness, shelter building, hunting, gathering, all of the stuff that we came from, basically.

Our ancestors had to do to survive. And so then I started seeing a lot of these content creators say that their videos were being blacklisted or banned, that they were getting demonetized. They went from millions of views to maybe 50,000 or 50,000 or 100,000 views. And they started saying this. They're like, I don't understand what's going on. And a lot of those survival channels to this day have dropped in views unless it is some viral thing that doesn't.

really teach you a lot, but it's a viral thumbnail that says, oh, stealth camping under a bridge on an interstate. You know, I mean, stuff like, or it really draws your attention with some kind of cool shelter. But as far as basic survival skills, these things used to be huge. And to be honest, I was looking up Google keywords today before this episode, and some of the, it wasn't even Google keywords. It was the things that are most searched right now. And survival was like number five. And these are of generic search terms of everything. And so just a category of survival, people are highly interested in. But yet, um, a lot of these survival content creators are even saying people are getting unsubscribe from their channel without them knowing. And,

and me myself, as much as we watch that, I never see that in my timeline anymore, ever. So you got to ask yourself, why would they be doing that? Well, it's because they don't want you to know basic skills. They don't want you to know the survival skills necessary to sustain life without the government or without the New World Order. That is why, because I have news for you. YouTube and all these platforms are a part of this. They are the elites. These are the people that go to the World Economic Forum. They talk about how they're going to censor what they need to censor in order for them to be more readily able to take over the world.

This is what happens and this is what we're facing. So learn basic skills and not just basic skills, but learn advanced skills. Keep learning them and keep doing whatever you can to research that. Build strong relationships of people that are going to be beneficial to you. That's number eight. And I'm not saying use people. I'm saying have what I would call. What is it on Survivor?

People of like mind. But what is it on Survivor they call? I can't think of order. Alliances. You have alliances to where people that, you know, say that a weekend, you go out and say, hey, let's go camping. Or let's go out in the woods. Let's go build a shelter somewhere.

Let's figure out things. Let's try to go fishing and cook it and do this and survive for a weekend or whatever. Do these things to get more prepared and more comfortable with being able to do these things. And then when shit does hit the fan, if you have a trusted group of people that you can trust, you're a lot better in numbers than you are by yourself. Yeah, when you have an alliance. And not normally do I see people go and do that. like try to survive for a weekend just to have fun.

But it's something that could be fun when you go out with your friends and hang out and camp and see if you can survive together. And I think it builds a relationship. And it would definitely help you if something really like that happens. Because there's many people that are like, oh my God, that's dumb. I would never camp. I would never go fishing. I would never do any of that.

You know, there's many people that have not even gone fishing, nor do they want to. Yeah, you're right. Be ready to protect your family's number 10 and yourself. And what I will say about that is guns. Yeah, guns. And not just guns. Weapons. Weapons.

What I'll also say about that as knives. What I'll also say about that is learn traps. Traps and booby traps and all these things. Start learning those things. Do that as a passion project. Don't do it because it's cool. Like actually learn to do it. Like learn to shoot.

It doesn't matter if, you know, there are guns and a lot of people think guns are expensive and by the way i hate to say this to our listeners because we have a ton of people that listen to us but you know we need to be buying guns right now you really do and um we need to be preparing to be prepared but but what i will say as far as the guns thing goes is we don't know how long whatever happens will prolong we don't know because Because it could prolong a long time. And what is going on in the world with Russia and the United States? And I say Russia and the United States instead of Russia in Ukraine.

The reason I say this is because we're fighting. We are closer to a physical war with Russia than we ever could imagine. Yeah, a world world. And they're ignoring this shit. Because we're basically fighting a war with Russia through Ukraine is what we're doing. Yeah, it's a proxy war. We're sending everything to Ukraine to fight the Russians. Yeah, but Russia is not.

But look, we keep stepping up what we're sending them. and eventually Russia is going to say, nope, I'm done with this. And it's a scary thing. And it's a scary thing too because, you know, there was a report that this came out. You know, Russia is really on top of the hypersonic missiles, which, by the way, they can also attach a nuclear warhead to,

which is very dangerous. Hypersonic missiles can, from anywhere in Russia, can get here within 10 to 15 minutes. And not only that, they can turn on a dime, not saying a complete 90-degree angle, but these things can curve and evasive. our weapons defense systems very easily. These are hypersonic missiles that can travel at nine times the speed of sound.

I mean, as faster in anything we have, as faster than any of our rockets, because we don't even have rockets. And the reason I say this, we have rockets. But the United States' recent hypersonic test failed. We still are not there with hypersonic missiles. The United States of America has failed this recent test of hypersonic missiles. Somehow whistleblowers came out.

They reported all. shit and now Russia's like licking their chops because they're like we have this shit now and not only that like we could probably destroy all of America with them never even being able to retaliate and that's the scary part and it's even scary because of the administration we have in office right now is completely incompetent just getting ready to say that we'd probably not even be in a war with them right now if we did not have a weak administration that wants to go liberal world order yeah Well, it goes back to like Russia's like campaign videos for their military to where what they push for the people that want they like, okay, let's do a marketing video for Russia and let's like tell these young men, let's show them something that's going to make them feel badass, right? So they want to join the military. They have they have people walking through minefields with with this new body suit that protects you from explosions. That's what Russia has. They got this minefield body suit that literally, literally a freaking rocket could drop

beside you and it protects your inner organs. Yeah. And then they have like Russian soldiers beating the shit out of each other, hitting sledgehammers on their stomach. And I mean, it's nuts. And then you have the United States talking about equal and fair and you can be

LGBT transgender. And you can cry if you want to. Yeah, you can cry. And we have counseling and safe spaces for our military. This is what we're freaking facing guys. Yes. So listen, you guys cannot be safe space little pussies sorry you but you can't you have to you have to

understand right now that and and i and i don't mean to say this the bad way but we we can't be pussyfied we got to harden our skin we got we got we got to get some calluses we got to we got we got to we got to quit worrying about uteruses and put on some armor and go fight and not everybody not everybody has to do that because i guess those people are like well if we get blown up like it, who cares? Well, I'm just saying men and women. The people that listen to this podcast do care and we got to care now. The other thing I will say for our international listeners, and I'm not saying this for all

international listeners, but what I will say is maintain a current passport. And the reason I say that too is because wherever you may be living, it may not be the place you want to try to survive. And if that's the case and you can get somewhere that you feel like you have a better chance of survival, even in the case that, for example, we have a lot of, we have a lot of loyal listeners on this podcast. We talk to many of you guys, whether it be in Australia or, and it might even be the case for us.

We might be like, screw this shit, we're going to Australia. We've talked to people in South America. We've talked to people everywhere. Yeah, but I mean, I'm saying, like, it might even be us. It says, you know what? The world's ending. Let's go to Australia. Yeah.

Let's get in there. A lot of people are like, come on, you know, open arms. You have to reach out to people to where you feel like you can survive the best. Yeah. In the best places. And then last but not least, and we're going to kind of break these down as fast as we can, but hope for the best, prepare for the worst. And the reason I say that is it's purely mental.

You've got to be optimistic, but you also have to be pessimistic at the same time. You have to realize that, yes, while I am optimistic, I'm going to be optimistic even in the worst case scenarios. I'm going to be prideful in the fact that I feel like I can survive the worst of the worst. because the people that panic and just break down during a panic situation, and this is the same with military, law enforcement, or anybody else. The reason why many military guys survive law enforcement in certain situations is because they don't break down, they don't panic,

and they've been there. That's why training is important for all these things. I mean, Navy's Sills do not go into compounds of the Taliban and all this shit and do this never have trained before, because if they would, they would all be dead. They would not know what to expect. They can go in these places and people wonder if you watch body cams of like Navy Sills breaking down doors and doing this crazy shit.

The reason they're able to be so confident is because they train for this day in and day out. They do this every single day. And even they even have live fire exercises with military to where live rounds are going over your head in situations that you have to stay down. Right. I mean, you have to train for what you're going to have. I don't think civilians really can train for that.

We can't run through bullets to protect ourselves. No, I'm not saying go out and shoot over your head. What I'm saying is go out and get uncomfortable. Because uncomfortable is what you're going to be. Yeah, we have to get uncomfortable. But you have to learn to be comfortable being uncomfortable. Exactly. And that is the key.

It is. So. And there's many ways that you can prep in the meantime. And they're very easy ways to prep. Yeah. Very easy ways. very easy things that you can even start right now. Yeah, so one of the things that you can start right now is stock supplies necessary to stay in life.

We've said this before and we're going to break it down. One of the very best ways to protect your family from economic swings is to have healthy food supplies. Now, in Venezuela, the prices doubled an average of, I think it was like, yeah, the prices doubled every 19 days in Venezuela. And this is during economic collapse. And so basically Venezuela was suffering. in the exact same thing in the United States and many countries around the world are right now, which is inflation, but not just inflation, hyperinflation. So it doesn't take long at the rate of inflation before a loaf of bread isn't even a possibility anymore,

especially for lower income families that don't have a lot of money. I mean, I know now when we go the store, it's expensive as hell. But I also know that all it takes is a little bit of flour, sugar, and maybe an egg to produce your own bread. make bread on a campfire. I mean, but you got to have supplies to do that. But we do have right now, as far as I'm concerned, we have ample flour. We have things to make bread. But it's, you know, what I'm saying is things that are mass produced in grocery stores are not going to be there for you. You have to know how to make bread, how to make things that are necessities for you. Yeah, absolutely. Venezuelans are going hungry. I mean, that's the thing. I mean, there was a,

there was a questionnaire. And of those questions in Venezuela, the annual living condition survey, or it was called in Kobe, 2007, 18, 19, eight out of 10 said they were eating less because they did not have enough food at home. Six out of 10 said they had gone to bed hungry

because they did not have the money to buy food. And so now we're, you know, over the past four or five years, they've been a starvation mode. This is just, it is what it is. You have to understand that, You need, if you're going to stockpile food, basic staple foods with a long shelf life. You need to be thinking about storing at least a year or two of basic staple foods that can last for 25 to 30 years in storage.

And something that can sustain your family during an economic challenge, whether it is hyperinflation, loss of employment, food shortages, or just a complete collapse of our economy. You know, we don't know what's going to happen with our savings. We don't know what's going to happen with our stocks. We don't know what's going to happen with our retirement. And all those things, that's why I don't want to ever say, like, go take your money out and do all this crazy shit. But if you have extra money to spend on things that are you believe necessities for the future, you should do that rather than buying something else. And that's what I will say. You guys need to be thinking about wheat, rice, oats, pasta, beans, sugar, dehydrated or freeze-dried foods.

And freeze-dried foods are especially important because freeze-dried foods over even dehydrated are better. Yeah, they last like way longer. Yeah, and keep in mind, freeze-dried foods are expensive. Now, there are freeze-driers that you can buy. Yeah, it's really expensive. Well, it is expensive initially, but if you can get a system to where you have a freeze-dryer

to where you can, and a lot of people don't know about freeze-drying food, but freeze-drying is literally the best way to do it. But we were looking into that just to say, like if we were going to buy meat, and instead of just putting it in the freezer, because it gets like that freezer taste or whatever. When you freeze dry it.

Yeah, you can freeze dry burgers. You can freeze it all kinds of stuff. Yeah, all you do is put hot water on it and it doesn't have that weird taste to it. Yeah, you just, yeah, you just rehydrated. Because I cannot eat like leftover meat. I hate that. Yeah, and yeah, with all part of that, you can learn how to package your food storage and basically the ideal storage conditions.

But if you freeze dry food, it's going to last for a long time. Usually shelf life on freeze dried food is 25. 30 years. So there is definitely places that you can go buy long-term food, but they're going to be expensive because, you know, it is a process to do it. It's more expensive than even probably going to the grocery store. So I would say, because we don't have a sponsor that's going to tell us, hey, you should go check out this place.

It's going to have free-dried food. No, you shouldn't. You guys should look into, okay, look, go wherever you want to if you want to buy it outright. Right. But what I would say is if you have the money to look into freeze drying, you should look into freeze drying and start storing that stuff. Now, that is a little bit of an investment up front. I mean, they're not crazy expensive, but they're not also. But you're not going to lose your money in case nothing happens. You still can eat that food. And it's going to be amazing as it was the day you freeze dry it. Yeah, absolutely. But to me, the most important thing, and listen, we were in Costco just the other day. And I saw this.

huge barrel and it was a stockpile like barrel of like rice or something and it you know it sit right on the front you know this will last you 25 years it was this huge did you say that on the corner this huge barrel yeah of rice but that will sustain life I will yeah I mean and even short term everyday food supplies you know like canned goods box mix like boxed mixes or you know stuff like that yeah and I guess that's if you're not on the go because you can't carry like all these heavy things with you well no but you got to have something established i mean you got at least be able to to do things i'm gonna i'm gonna talk about a little bit about that but cold cereal ketchup similar items i mean usually these things last one to seven years

um you know they may not always be as good after a couple years but you still should think about that right now we usually throw stuff out yeah because but you really honestly you could keep it yeah but the reality is is that yeah you need short-term food supplies that don't have to last you 25 years, but just something that you have an initial cachet to where you're not panicking as much because you have the food there. It's not hard to make.

And then you can make a plan. Yeah, you need to find stuff that you can just heat up rather than adding anything to it. You need to find things that you, basically you add a water to. And there's a lot of things out there. Soups, rice, beans.

I mean, all these things are things that are very good. Well, it's actually the, in the grocery store, it's the middle. aisles. Yeah, you're right. Honestly. If you want to be healthy, you go on the outside aisles. If you want to sustain life and make sure that you have food, go in the inside

house. Yeah. Now, another thing I will say is like medication. For those of you out there, they're on medication that, you know, sustains your life. You get to think about it as well. Now, it's not as easy to go to a doctor to get prescribed medication. That is they're going to give you a seven-year supply. that's not going to happen.

But what you guys should be doing instead is looking up natural supplements that can act and benefit you the same way as something prescribed from a pharmaceutical company. And so those are things you guys need to be looking at. And then you can then go and you can stock up on that. Whether it be stock up on those supplies or find ways to actually make those products yourself because a lot of these natural supplements are coming from plant ingredients and so on and so forth. So be looking into that. But in like in my circumstances, I get my prescriptions in three months instead of one month.

So if you're going to do a three month prescription, that will give you like three months to kind of go, you know you're going to be out of that prescription. That's when you can kind of try to start doing the supplements to get off the medicine. Well, yeah, and keep in mind too. Because some medicine you cannot just stop taking. But most insurances will refill at 25 days instead of 30. So take advantage of that 25-day buffer or that five-day buffer. Oh, mine does 90 days. No, but what I'm saying is even if it's a 30-day supply,

most insurances will refill it 25 days rather than 30. So take advantage of that five-day buffer and just do it every 25 days and you're going to get an extra five pills of whatever it is every month. Right. So even if it's 90 days, you could probably subtract 15 days. You're probably 15 days more pills. And so take advantage of that, start thinking about that. And then think about, you know, over-the-counter medications, first-aid supplies, stuff like that,

and then also start researching things that are first-aid supplies in nature and wilderness that you can grow. And then there's so many things in nature. You know, it's one of the things I go back to how I survived, I believe. And I think you too, and a lot of our listeners have written in about our natural supplements that survived them through the sickness in the past three years. Code blue. Yeah. And, you know, think about things such as treating injuries, learn a little bit of first aid and how to cauterize things or disinfect things. Those are all things that can be game changers in a survival situation, especially in the wilderness.

That's going to kill you quicker than running out of food. So you need to think about survival in a first aid scenario and learning how to treat things. Because look, if it went as bad as you're in the middle of nothing. you have nothing and no one's there to protect you. And I mean, hell, we talk about medical care. I mean, look at what happened in the past three years. We couldn't trust medical care at the very least. Well, there's some people they turned away for medical care.

Well, it's not even that. I mean, the fact that they had no early treatment for this killed more people than probably turned them away. Probably, yeah, than what it was. And so that's the problem is like we have to start thinking about taking care of ourselves rather than other people taking care of us. I know it's crazy. It's 2022.

We should be thinking that we have the most advanced this and this. Yeah, but we're going back. We're almost going backwards. We are. And very fast. Yeah, very fast we're going backwards. So we talked about valuable tools. Basic tools can make a huge difference in your ability to provide for your family or yourself during this entire thing.

The time to purchase these things is now while they are available and you have financial resources to purchase them. And we talked about what do you need to spend your money on now rather than later. Well, things are tools. Let these ideas help brainstorm a list of tools you may need. So kitchen tools. Think about things like it's going to be valuable when you're making meals from scratch instead of picking them up at the drive-thru window or a grocery store. Make sure you have a couple of good quality can openers because, you know, you're going to be supplying cans.

Yeah, and you better have a bottle opener. That's like number one. Yeah, a good grower. Grain grinder is highly valuable asset because grains are very important, especially for bread making. We were talking about that. And there are ways you can make bread on campfires. Y'all, Chad did not even get that. What?

My bottle opener comment. Oh, yeah. Well, I mean, I guess you're going to be making beer yourself. But if you have grains. Like a wine opener. Oh, oh, yeah. Wine opener, I got you got to have that. Well, then you need to learn to grow grapes and all that.

You also may want the ability to grind corn or beans. electric grain mill you can also get and that will produce flour for you for bread but you just need the grains so look into grains look into high amounts of grain a bean auger

is another thing that's good think about garden tools you know if you're going to be growing your own food you need things to be able to tool you know to till up things manually probably because say you have no gas you're going to need things like a

basic quality ground tools well not even a tiller because that's gas but they have they have tillers that are not gas yeah that's what I'm saying yeah

yeah well that's what yeah I can see you very soon but you know shovels is extremely important don't buy cheap garden tools because they break

they break in freaking a week we've bought many of those because they suck and so that goes with anything that you go to the dollar store or taller tree don't buy

spatulas are like garden tools from them because they break and they're awful. It's a waste of a dollar. So I think about things like heavy duty shovels, a square mouse shovel, a turn-in fork, a rake, wheelbarrel, small towel, small garden rake, small garden rake, large pruners, medium pruners. That is if you have a place where you can even grow anything. Yeah. What if you don't have a place?

We're going to talk about that. We're going to talk about that. General handyman tools. I mean, that's the other thing. You know, saws, ladders, hammers, screwdrivers, pliers, chisels, utility knife, levels, tape measure, ratchet set, socket set, flashlight, safety glasses, gloves. And when I say saws, I'm talking about hand saws. I'm talking about something you can actually saw a board into rather than having to worry about electricity.

You know, if you look at bushcraft stuff and what they do in the woods, they saw everything. And they make huts and shelters and whatever they need to make. Right. They make cordage out of vines and rope that are naturally occurring in the woods. Now, all of you may not live in that situation where you can do that. But if it was really an emergency situation like that, I think also a good thing to have would be the hand-operated radio. What is that thing?

Ham, yeah, ham radio. Yeah. Yeah, we're going to talk about that too. Because I think that would be really important because that's your only way to communicate with like the outside world. if there's nothing else. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely.

I mean, look, our power grid is at Jeopardy. I've read a few articles about our power grid is at more susceptible now than ever. Our communication system is more susceptible now than ever. You think about this Russia, this Russia, United States, Ukraine thing. One of the things that they have over there are things to shut down communication systems. I mean, that's what, you know, I guess what you would call digital warfare. One of the quickest ways to kill your opponent is communications. If you can shut down communications,

you shut down everything that they're strategizing for to figure out how they're going to beat you, which leads me to the point of censorship in America and all around the world right now. That's why they're shutting down communications and center in speech, because you cannot have someone talking and figuring things out if you're planning on beating them,

and that is what they are doing. They're trying to beat the public, the human being. the elites are trying to beat us and they're trying to shut down speech and they're trying to censor us to defeat us same thing that countries do with each other number one thing they can shut down is communications

that's what we're all experiencing right now so think about that grow your own food I mean make even grow in a small amount of your food part of your daily life it doesn't matter what it is listen like my friend my neighbor and I we're like growing all kinds of stuff we've grown leban plants lime plants

turmeric, all kinds of herbs, all kind of anything. Fruit trees, apple trees, oranges, like anything you can grow. Because really, you can grow it from the seeds from the fruit that you get from the grocery store. Yeah. And think about that as a basic, I guess a process of evolution as far as not evolution, but sustainability. Right.

So like tomatoes, for example. Tomatoes are great. Potatoes are great. Learning how to grow things in, you know, for example, broccoli and things grow in colder times and then you have things that grow in warmer times. But everybody knows. You need to have a sustainable growth cycle. Yeah. And I think everyone's had a potato that has grown its own stuff out of the potato.

Like those grow really quick. Yeah, all you got to do to do potatoes is very easy. And same thing with onions. You can cut it in threes or fours and put them in the ground. Yeah. That's how they grow. Same with onions. Things are very easy to grow.

We just don't think about it because it's not a necessity. Yeah. I mean, like you were saying, one of the, one of the, one of the, the easiest ways to produce a reliable crop of food is plant barren trees, bushes, vines, within your landscape. Anything. And we have a nature trail right down from our house. It has like natural like grapes growing.

I don't know where it came from, but it's actual grapes growing right there. Yeah, I mean, you can think about things like apple trees, uh, cherries, bush cherries. Yeah. And in our backyard, we have blackberries growing that are wild. Yeah, goji berries. I mean, there's so many things you can grow. And then you've got to think about medicinal herbs such as lavender, camomill, fever, few, hysup, bee balm, cone flowers.

There's so many things as far as medicinal herbs that you also need to be thinking about as far as medicine. Yeah, medicine and things like that. Think Indian. Think what they used to have to do. Look up Indians. Look up the history of what Indians did, the medicine doctors, and all those things that sustained their life for so long. Well, to me, I think that piece pipe is what helped a lot.

of people. Yeah. Honestly. If you have land, raise chickens. Chickens is one of the most sustainable, easy things you can possibly have because you have meat and you have eggs. Goats is another one. Yeah.

You can make milk and you can have meat. You're right. So also prepare to provide for yourself or do without. So, you know, an economic collapse, it's important that you do everything you can to take care of your needs without depending on the government or other people. and in addition to all those resources of your story, you may need to be creative and make do with what you can make yourself. And so create basically a reference of everything that you can do yourself

or what you're preparing or planning to do yourself. And you can refer to that when there is no internet. Because you have to understand that when an economic collapse or a total power grid meltdown happens, you have no Google. The only thing you're going to have is that ham radio. Or the reference book. What I'm saying is create a reference book of everything that you're doing

and make sure you understand how things work and keep that in reference like a diary. Do that on everything that you do. And as you progress, you keep writing in there. And then if all hell breaks lists, you have Google in a book. But you're not going to be able to do that if you live in a flat or you live in a condo or you have no land. Well, you can still do some things. But yeah, you can you can like grow alfalfa sprouts or things in your condos. There's a lot of things you can grow there.

Well see, but listen, but that's what I'm saying is like what you're talking about as far as people and I was, you know, I was going to talk about this in a little bit, but we'll go ahead and say this. You know, if you're in a apartment or a condominium or whatever the case may be to where you have literally zero chance of resources around you, guys, you need a bug out bag with all the necessary supplies. you need to where you can get somewhere. Yeah, you guys, by the way, you guys that have no ability to do the things that we're talking about right now are going to be the ones that may have to do the most because you're going to be less prepared because you're in a situation to where you can't prepare. And you have to find a place where you can be. Which is going to be a national forest somewhere in the middle of nowhere.

You need a way to escape and to get out. And you also need a plan once you get there of how you're going to do this. and that comes along with, you know, there's going to be a lot of people there. There's going to be a lot of people. And by the way, even if you have your own land, there's going to be people trying to come on your land. Right.

Trying, and that goes back to protection thing, which we're going to talk about. But I'm just even thinking about England. You know, a lot of England is flats and, you know, houses on top of houses. They don't have a lot of land, but it's a lot of people. And so they don't have a lot of resources there.

You know, people like that are the ones that really need to think about having a bug out butt bag, which Chad was talking about, which means having something that's essential that you could just grab and go. Yeah. And you can survive for at least three to five days or whatever. Yeah, and you're right. And one of the things we're talking about, too, is if you don't have, you know, if you're preparing to live with little or no electricity, you have to start thinking about either no electricity or the ability to create electricity but via solar.

There are solar panels. And I'm not talking about solar panels going to your house. I'm talking about solar systems that are meant to be portable to where you can take them, they go into a battery bank and you can supply power to certain things that you need. And those are portable systems that you should look into. They're not crazy expensive. They sell these for campers now.

They sell these for people that want to go out in the middle. They sell these for people that, I mean, I know a lot of people that have solar panels. They put it on top of their boats. They have it going into basically an electric generator that charges their batteries. And then those batteries supply you power. for whatever you need, whether it be a certain ham radio systems, whatever the case may be, but you've got to think about power if you don't have it. That's why I wish we kind of had like an RV or something that was like a home on wheels

where we could get out of here if we had to. Yeah, but the thing is that runs out of gas. Gas. I know. And so in a really bad situation, you don't want to be an RV because that's just not a good thing. And it's just not you want to be. But if you were like in a place where it's not good for you to survive there and you're trying to get out of there, at least you have a house on wheels getting out of there. I would buy land before I ever buy an RV.

And I get that. But I'm talking about people that don't have land around them. Like in Europe, they don't have any land. Yeah, but they really don't. Europe has land. Not a lot. I don't know. Especially like in, I don't.

But they're still going to have to go find land somewhere. I mean look there's going to be in a total world collapse which is very possible there's going to be people that die because they have no chance of survival they are not prepared they do not have any other opportunities

or chances to take and unfortunately but the people that are prepping have a better chance of survival I guess yeah I mean that's the same thing but I'm just thinking about people that you know are living in their circumstances right now, they have no land. They have no place to bug out. What I'm saying is when, well,

you better start figuring it out. I mean, most everywhere has somewhere that has not a lot of houses. Well, that's in America, but not in other countries. Yes, there's, Europe has a lot of land out there. They do. I mean, it just depends on, I mean, it's just like London and all those. I mean, it's just like New York City. I mean, hell, New York City, you can go not very far and get in New York suburbs. And you're in woods. I mean, the same thing as in Europe. The same thing is many places. Now, places like Russia, which none of you get Russians are listening because you're not allowed to. But, but places, you know, and you got also thinking about your environment, like where you are and what the conditions are going to be in survival. And that's

going to heavily depend on what you, what you focus more attention on rather than less attention, you know. I mean, if you're in an extremely cold climate, you better figure out shelter and you, I mean, especially if you don't have shelter, or you have to bug out, right? You've got to figure out shelter and you got to figure how to keep yourself warm. I mean, that's the number one. In hot, extremely hot climates all year, Florida, whatever it may be, you got to figure

out how to sustain yourself from bugs and insects and or not insects, but yeah, insects and all that shit. It's all different conditions. You just got to figure out what your situation is. We talked about the financial reserve, build up

financial backing. Now, a lot of that stuff may go by the wayside, but you got to, you have to make sure that you are spending money in the right ways right now because toys and everything is all fine and dandy, but let's be responsible a little bit.

If we're going to spend, and this is my point, I guess, if you have the opportunity to spend, say, $50,000 on something, whether it be an RV or land, buy land all day, every day. If you have that choice. That ability.

Yeah, because you're not going to, And then as soon as you buy the land, figure out either buy a chicken coop or build a chicken coop and get chickens. Learn in that process. Get animals. Do these things. I mean, these are things we have to think about.

And guys, I'm serious. We live in a golf community right now. And we have friends moving out of our golf community that want to purchase land, homes with land, so that they can survive if they have to. Like this is like normal people. in a golf community that are leaving the golf community

because they want land. Yeah. Honestly. You're right. I mean, it's like normal everyday people are really seeing this. Yeah. You know, it's really happening.

Now, you're 100% right. We talked about the basic skills. You know, baking bread from scratch, growing tomatoes, mending torn jeans, fixing the leaky faucet. Doing things like figuring out how to filter water, figuring out how to build a fire without a lighter, figuring out how to store firewood, figuring out how to chop firewood down, figuring out where firewood is available. You know, doing things like creating fish traps and creeks or streams without fishing line or fishing poles. But by the way, I would suggest getting fishing poles, playing a line and allures and everything else and a ton of hooks.

because look, if all hell breaks lives, man, are you going to feel happy that you got that fishing line and the fishing pole? But do things like that. And I'm almost like, you know, to me, when I watch naked and afraid, for example, you know, all these people are going out. And I think everyone around the world probably sees it too. These people go naked. They go 14 days, 21 days, 60 days, whatever.

But they have to survive on the land with no clothes. and one thing that they could bring with them. Yeah. And there, you know, many of them are able to survive, but it's not an easy survival. Like when they come out of it, they have no fat. They're like lost 50 to 80 pounds, whatever. No. But there's a lot of learning we can do from just watching that show.

Like how to make traps, for example, fish traps, game traps, anything. Yeah, for sure. Because they're really, they're survivalists. and they know how to do it. And another thing I would say too also is, yeah, you're right. Those basic things you've got to know. And even things like fermenting vegetables or, I mean, because, you know, fermenting is extremely important to your immune system.

You know, I think it's like 85% of our immune system is in our gut. Fermining basically inhabits your gut with good bacteria is going to help you have energy. It's going to help you protect your body from not just sickness, but from if you get covered, and infections. That's going to help, and that's going to send good bacteria to that location. It's going to keep your whole immune system up. So learn fermenting.

It's not that hard at all. It's not. And it extremely helps. And by the way, it's basically letting fruit rot, is what it is, or food rotting. Yeah.

And it builds good bacteria. In a vinegar. Yeah. We talked about building relationships, and the thing is, you know, there's not a whole lot to be said about that. Just know who you're important people are

and start talking about it. about these type of things with those people. And start trying to see if instead of certain activities that you do, maybe you drink it with them or maybe you go out with them, you know, try to do different things to challenge yourselves as a team. You know, because if in the event that you need to support of someone else or whatever, because we all need support from someone, I mean, yes, you can go out and solo survive, but you know how much harder it is a solo survive than rather if you had eight people,

that are surviving with you. Everybody has a job and a task. Everybody has something they're willing to do. And these are people you've got to trust. And so start figuring out who those people are. Start practicing things to do. And it'll greatly help you. And I'm saying too, like make it fun for you.

Like a lot of times Chad and I will go out and do things to see if we can do it. But we also make it fun. Like it's, you know, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. It's just a fun thing for us to try to do. Yeah, you're right. Can we do this? Can we survive on this?

Like, let's go out in the woods and see if we can survive on anything in the woods that we can survive on. If it's water bottles that are out there, if, you know, if it's whatever sticks or wood that's available to make things, if there's a great vine, you know. How can we build a shelter? Yeah. You know, how can we do these things? We look at those things. And we used to look at like within our house, like if there was an intruder. We'd always play games if there was an intruder in our house.

Yeah, it's called war games, basically. Yeah, it was war games. We would simulate intruders and what we would do to defeat them. If there was an intruder, yeah, and we do that all the time. And we did that with our daughter. We've done that with my best friend. Like, what would you do in this circumstance? But it's important to figure out what would you do?

Because if you do that and you're kind of scared playing the game and then you're doing it and then if it's really happens to happen you're not so scared because you already have a plan yeah yeah yeah we did this with uh our daughter when she was young yeah did scare her a little bit but she also was getting more used to it and and she learned what to do if there was an intruder in our house yeah you know she probably go back over that um you're right but so one of the last things we'll touch on before we go is be ready to protect yourself and your family. Now, one of the reasons that the Venezuelan citizens gave flee in the country,

uh, uh, or one of the reasons they gave for flee in the country and the reason they wanted to leave is because of violent crime. You know, when all hell breaks loose, you have violent crime skyrocket. And I don't know if we see what's happening in the United States right now. And it's not just the United States, but it's really happening in the United States. violent crime is skyrocketing right now. I mean, people are, you're not safe anywhere.

You always got to watch your back. You always got to watch your ass. It doesn't matter where you're at. You never know because this is the way we're at. And it's not guns. It's, it doesn't matter if guns weren't here. It would be something else. And you're never going to get rid of guns in America, just FYI,

because there's three times a gun than people. But the citizens do not have the ability to defend themselves in Venezuela with firearms due to the strict. gun control laws. Does that sound interesting? So instead of staying to be sitting ducks in Venezuela, many of them left because they had no way to protect themselves. And so you may need to be prepared with alternative methods to protect and defend your family or yourself, whether this be that you're in a country that has strict gun control laws or a state, or whether this be that you are in a survival situation don't have a weapon or your weapon

malfunctions or you run out of ammo or whatever the case may be. This is why I heavily always talk about and there's something I don't do a lot of and I need to get more into it is both and arrows. What you can use in your home that could be a weapon.

Well yeah but not even that. There's a lot of things that you can use as a weapon. Yeah. But bows and arrows too. I mean just for survival, food, everything it's a great resource and it's a great skill to learn and to have. Right.

But I'm not going to say like a weapon in your house that is a weapon, like a broomstick or something, is going to amount to a gun. You know, you're never going to win against a gun. No. So. No. And so what, but one of the things I will say about weapons is, you know, whether it's an AR, you know, AR 15s and that type of AK-47s, you know, the ammo is expensive right now. I mean, and those guns are not cheap.

So, but it is a good defense weapon, but you don't have to have an AR-15 to defend yourself. I mean, I would say you could go shotgun around because you can get shotguns for pretty decent prices, but shotguns are definitely not defense weapons in long-range situations. And you don't ever, you know, one of the things I always say is you don't want to technically have to defend yourself within 15 feet. If you have to jump. Yeah, they want them to be far away. Yeah, if you have to jump on somebody to where they're on your land or they're on your property, and you know this is a doomsday type situation

and you warn them multiple times and they continue to progress on you, you don't want a close quarters battle with those people or that person. And I think that in that circumstance, you'd want a shotgun. Well, a close quarters battle, yes. But a long-range battle, no, AR-15,

because you can take them out from across your land. Yeah, okay, I'm saying long, long, but when they're in front of your window would be a shotgun. And if they're in your house, that would be a handgun. Shotgun, maybe yes, but shotgun doesn't always kill people.

I mean, if you need them to be down. I mean, it'll hurt them, and especially buckshot and stuff, but I'm just saying, but, you know, simple handguns. But also what I want to touch on is ammo availability, you know, and it's not just a fence,

but we've got to think about hunting. You know, a great gun for hunting if you have to have a gun that is cheap and the ammo is cheap as a 22. You can kill a lot of small game with a 22 and the ammo is dirt cheap. You can find 22 ammo all over the place. You can buy a 22 gun for 100 bucks.

And you can kill small game all day, every day, and survive. I mean, hell, you could fish with a 22 if you had to, if you get decent at shooting. But then from there, you know, you got your handguns. You know, you got your stuff, you know, 9mm ammo is not nearly as expensive as 40 or 45. Then you go up from there, AR-15s, AK-47s. you're looking at like, you know, really defending your property type shit to where if someone's going to come on your property or a group of people are going to come on your property, you want an AR-15 to be able to defend that.

Because, look, if you go on someone's property, you do not want 5, 5, 5, 6 rounds or 2, 3 coming at you. Look, I would walk, I could get on someone's property if they have a shotgun. I could probably make it, even if they knew I was coming on a property, I could make it to them, you know, pretty easily if they're shooting a shotgun. But I do not want to be dodging 5-5-6-a-1. Yeah, because it's like the shotgun is very slow. It's spread out. It spreads out, but it's like, boom.

A shotgun is BB ammo. Boom, yeah, it goes psh, and it spreads out everywhere. It's a spread shot. But an A-K or an AR... You hit one time by that. Well, no, it's not like that. It's not automatic. Well, it's pretty much...

Well, shotguns can do that too, but... But the thing is, ARs says, yeah, you can pull that trigger fast, And you've got these large 45 caliber rounds, essentially, most of them. Blowing up, whatever it's hitting. And hitting, and you're going to be done. Like your body's gone. And if you're really hungry. Oh, my God, Chad.

I'm just kidding. If you're really hungry. Well, I always said, if I'm really hungry and it's just me and you, I'm going to have to eat you. Okay. Well, that'd be the first. Anyways. Also, learn self-defense skills. guys learn uh like start i mean i don't give a damn if it's a youtube that you watch or ufc more so

yeah seriously but like but learn self-defense skills learn ways uh proper takedowns um learn how to get out of things uh you know i mean self-defense skills in close quarter situations listen even if you're a little person doesn't mean you can't take down a big person if you're a little person you got to use their body weight against them yeah i mean some of the things especially as women i always I always say this. Like one of the best martial arts, one of the best martial arts is Akito because, you know, keto,

you're using weight manipulation to basically neutralize your opponent or you're using their weight against them. And someone that's not prepared for that, they're not going to understand what you're doing. But the more you learn about how weight manipulation plays a part in that, I mean, honestly, heavier people are easier to take down. That's what people don't understand.

Like, I'm telling you right now, guys, I'm about 170-something now. And if I was in the street, I had no experience of fighting whatsoever or any of that shit. But I was a decent fighter, right? If this was it, I would rather fight someone that's like 260 or at least, you know, rather than someone that's like 170. I would, especially takedown-wise. because, I mean, yeah, you might think it's harder to take down a bigger person. But the reality is, is a small person is going to be lanky, they're going to be stringy. And you're, I mean, you can ask police all over the country.

They would rather fight a 170-pound person a lot of, I mean, or a 260-pound person than 170-pound, or 140-pound even. Because once you take down a bigger, strong person, it's harder for them to get up. Yeah, and you can manipulate your body around them. When you have a skinny, lanky guy, they're maneuvering. And even if they know nothing about ground. combat. They are still going to be better than someone is 260 pounds. Right. They're going to be able to get out of shit. That you, that you're trying your best to keep them, you know, the main thing is you want to keep your body weight manipulated to where you keep them down and that's also whatever. But a heavier person is easier to do that. You can also climb and choke them out a lot easier. But man, lanky people, they can turn, spin around. They can do all kinds of shit to get out of whatever they're, whatever they're in. And so you have to think about, learning self-defense skills, learn what your scenario is.

And, you know, I would say one of the things that I would always do is like, I don't know, man, ground control is everything. You know, you look at Habib, you know, Nargerman. I can't even say his last. Norghumanehatt off. Damn it, I can't say his name. Habib, which is probably one of the greatest UFC fighters ever. He's a small dude. Yeah.

Ain't no one going to beat him on the ground. Yeah, but once he's on the ground, you're done. Yeah, and he can still sustain himself. Yeah, he can sustain himself, you know, upright too. But he gets your ass on the ground, you're done. Yeah. And I consider myself, like, if I get you on the ground, you're done. Like, I don't care who you are or what the hell, you know, I mean, of course, you're like, Habib, no.

But what I'm saying is the average person, if I can get them on the ground, you know, I'm going for a few things. And, sure, you know this. We've practiced this, but. We've practiced and we've also fought with this. No, yeah. So we can be down. Like, we practice the fighting on the ground or whatever. Yeah.

Like, practiced it. Yeah. I mean, we do, you know, we teach each other arm bars, leg bars, chokeholds, how to get, how leverage your body, how to use your hips to get out of a position. If you're on the bottom. And it doesn't matter how, how strong you are. It's the technique. It's a person's body weight that you're deflecting, I guess. Yeah.

And even like a keto, one of the good things I used to show you. was I would do things I would set you up and because this is like setting up down on the ground in like 10 seconds but what I'm saying is when we're on the ground and I would have you on top of me and I would and I would no

but I would set you up I would like move my hip I would like move my hip down like say my right hip I'd move it down towards the ground like and then I would kind of flinched like I was going left or I would flinch

no sorry I would flinch like I was going right to the ground and so automatically your sense of defense, you're going to go towards where I flinch. Right. So if I'm flinching and gore and towards the ground, you're going to automatically shift your weight to try to maintain my control. And that's when you flip them. That's when you flip them because you're using their weight.

It's almost like a pendulum swing. You use their weight to rip your hip back the other way. And then you also have to do this by pushing the top shoulder. You know, you want to leverage their whole weight to get them off. of you, but then you got to know what you're going to do after that, but you always want to control the head. You also got to know where their arms are because... But I'm telling you, women can control men with this type of... Oh, absolutely.

Whatever you want to call it. What is it called? Well, it's Akito, but... Akito, yeah. But, I mean, that's what I'm saying. And Jiu-Jitsu is another one. I mean, Jiu-Soo is a great martial art. It is something that you'll really kick someone's ass if you can combine both those. And there's a lot of Akito and J-Jitsu, but Akito really focuses on body weight. manipulation using the opponent's advantage to your advantage and um you know it is something that look

the bottom line is learn self-defense no matter what it is and this is self-defense is this not something like it's like um going after people this is if somebody's attacking you how to use their body weight to control them yeah especially for women but not just that if you want to just be a badass fighter go to akito jiu-jitsu learn that practice that even if this with your wife, I mean, hopefully y'all don't get pissed and call a cops and then want you go to jail? There's a couple times when I was like, oh my God, let go, Chad is. Do tight.

No, but I mean, but, you know, and for those of you don't know, Sherry is not like some frail little girl. Oh, no, I am a bad bitch. She will kick someone's ass and she's very strong. And she, like, I'll put it this way. Like, I think I told, I've told many people this, but like, if I was in a bar fight, you know, I would rather have probably you on my side rather than a lot of guys I know, honestly. Because that's just you.

I mean, people don't see that probably at the podcast, but I'm telling you, man, you're like you have men strength. Yeah. And so, yeah, I mean, that's just. And so when we spar and stuff, it's not. But when we spar like that, Chaz got me like undefeated. But you're extremely strong, though. Yeah. But you still can, like, I give within five seconds.

Yeah. but um so learn self-defense but overall guys just start preparing for the un for the for the unknown and and do this as a passion project make this fun don't make this something that's so scary that you just don't know right you know you're panicking and you're and you're going to your wife or your husband when you listen to the spot guys I'm like holy shit we got to spend our life savings on everything yeah we got to get our bug out bag and everything no just do it in like little yeah just just do it like if you have a an opportunity to go camping, do some things on a fire, try to do a little shelter building,

try to do a little water filtering. Make it fun. Make it fun. Like this is like a fun adventure for you to do something different. Until it's not. Yeah. And also one of the things I will say is invest in water filtration systems. They'll last you forever. They're not that expensive. You can have Sawyer, which is a great water filtration system. They're not sponsoring us, by the way. But Sawyer has everything. They have. Yeah. So Sawyer, reach out to us. But yeah, they have gravity bags for water filtration. They have water filtration straws, which look like they're not. And we actually tried it one time when we're camping.

You're talking about that bag. You're talking about that bag. Well, the one time, we're going to filter this water. Well, yeah, the gravity bag, yeah. Yeah. But I've done water filtration forever. Yeah, well, we did it. It was kind of scared.

No, you're not going to be scared to that. It's 100% filtered. Because we took it right out of the river and put it up there. and then we put it on the tree and let it filter down. Yeah, the other way, obviously, you can filter water is just boil it. But, I mean, the quickest way is water filtration. And I guess my way would be, like, the more safe way for me would be to boil it. But we did this, you know, this other thing you wanted to do.

Now, I was kind of scared to, like, drink it. Gravity filter. Yeah, but it was fine. It was great. Yeah, no. Tasted like mountain water, and it was filtered. It was still a little bit brown, though. Well, yeah, I mean, but that's just sediment.

I mean, that's not nothing you got to worry about. But, you know, and then there's also like, you know, it also depends. I mean, you don't have to filter all water. I mean, if you've got an underground stream coming out of a mountain, you don't have to filter that. It's a naturally filtering process. The only reason you have to typically filter water is because of the upstream pollution or certain water conditions that harbor life of bacteria, such as Guardia. Well, meaning, like, where your mom lives, she's got a stream or creek going through.

I wouldn't normally just go in there and just drink that water. Yeah. I don't think it'd be safe. Well, the creek itself probably not. I mean, I don't know. But she definitely has a lot of, you know, she has a lot of like underground streams. The streams that go underground from the mountain that come out. You know, that's literally shit that they bottle in water bottles now.

Yeah, I know. You can buy at the store. Like mountain water. Yeah. So, so yeah, I don't. I, uh, Guys, just prepare. I mean, just do what you can.

This is something that the New World Order is not going to stop. They're going to continue to do whatever they can to degrade the fabrics of society. And that is what we're facing. And I want you all to understand that this is not something that is going to end tomorrow. It's not going to suddenly get better a week from now. This is probably going to get worse, and especially in the United States, but it's not just the United States thing. This is all over the world. And what happens in the United States affects the world and what happens to other countries affects us.

And so be prepared that this is not going to get better. It may get worse. And so I just wanted, we wanted to come on just to talk about this. You really got to think about this. You have to be prepared for this. And you've got to start being comfortable, being uncomfortable. Yeah, you're right. And I love that saying.

Be comfortable, being uncomfortable. Yeah, because if you're not used to being uncomfortable, it's going to suck. Yeah. And it may kill you if all hell breaks loose. It's just like if you're used to air conditioning in 100 degrees, get used to being outside. You know, things like that. And get used to cold. Yeah.

And if you're not used to cold, get used to figuring out a way to not be cold. I mean, like, you have one or two options. Either be extremely cold or figure out a way to not be cold. Same thing with heat. either figure out a way to be really hot or figure out a way not to be hot. And by the way, shelters all has to do with environment. So regardless of where you are, you've got to figure out shelter based on your environment. And so if you're in a hot condition environment, then I would be building the shelter underground.

And I'm saying something that is at least three to four feet underground. Yeah, because it's cooler. And you build everything up with sticks. And then you bring everything up. You even, you can, most places have clay mud or clay. Like, I know Australia has the red clay. Oh, we have red clay here. We have it here.

You know, you can use that as a cement. You can, I mean, you can use that as to fill in the cracks of the logs you're putting over top of your underground shelter. And then you put leaves and then you put moss and you put all this stuff. And, and then you're sheltered. But the reason I say in a hot environment go underground is because underground maintains a constant temperature. Yeah. You think about going down in the.

basement it's always colder in the basement underground you know it's the same thing and in cold conditions you could you could technically do the same thing but in cold conditions you just want to make sure you're heavily insulated um multiple layers and you want to but you want to concentrate more on the fire aspect and as far as heating the shelter right and you can do that with but you can even like I think about even like growing up in Colorado when I used to build my little igloos you know in the middle of a blizzard I've done that once but it was so like it was actually warm inside this snow tunnel thing. Yeah, it's insulated.

Because it was insulated. I mean, people don't understand. It's insulated. Yeah. It's going to maintain a constant temperature inside, and your heat is going to stay in there. And you can do the same thing in the ground. Mm-hmm.

So guys, start looking up shelter building on YouTube. Look up what guys do, man. There's some awesome videos out there of shelter building. And if you watch it, it looks amazing, like what they're in result is. And yes, a lot of times it is. is a lot of work. But we all can do it.

We all can do it. Absolutely. It's a lot easier in building a house. Yeah. You just got to know the basics of what you need to be doing. Yeah.

I mean, and watch videos. Start doing this and start practicing this. Like get hands-on experience. That's all I'll say. But guys, that's going to be it for this Investing Earth podcast. Learn to survive. Be prepared to be unprepared.

No, no. Yeah. Be prepared to be unprepared. Yeah. But also, no, but that's not the saying. be comfortable with being uncomfortable. Yes, yes. But guys, until next time, we love you,

and we will be back very soon. Until then, peace out. Peace out. Like a spark fly, we all look up to our fathers. All as right. The day is dark as night. Oh, aside you never puts another, which his blood runs with his life for so long buried snow.

Yes, here we are shining.
