Maybe you know what a zombie is? When a person dies and is buried, it seems a certain voodoo priests who have the power to bring him back to life. Horrible. It's worse than horrible because a zombie has no will of his own. You see them sometimes walking around blindly with dead eyes, following orders, not knowing what they do, not caring. You mean like Democrats? PBM family, batting down the hatches if you're on the east-southeast. And God bless the folks who went through the march feet of snowfall.

Wow. Mother Nature's Fury is at the core of preparedness. I mean, I don't know what else to tell you, right? It's one of those things you can bet on it. You can count on it. You will be affected by rains and floods and winds and hail and power outages and the whole nine yards. And the fact that basic prepping is somehow still not adopted by everybody's just, well, it's silly to me.

You know, it's a weird thing. We can disconnect, you know, the unlearning. The 100-year amnesia, the unlearning, whatever you want to call it. I don't care what it was called. I don't care the perpetrators, Democrat, whatever, Rockefeller. It doesn't matter to me. what matters to me is finding our way back to human right finding our way back to human before we find our way to cyborg or whatever the hell else is waiting around the corner so batten down the

hatches tie down what's important flip over the things that could blow away if you're in the southeast i tried to reach out or i reached out to uh the phoenix this morning because Western North Carolina is getting hit earlier naturally than Richmond, Virginia, where I am. And I'm trying to see, you know, what the hell's going on there. Who knows? Who knows how it will all play out? Backup power. Backup lighting. Right? These things that are available at red beacon ready. shop, they're not just there for, you know, because whatever, because other survival stores sell them or prepper stores, really, more than survival.

The items that are available to purchase up on red beacon ready. shop right now will literally be in play today in my own household. That was what I was going for. I was going for those things. I wanted to build a shop out of the things that I actually use. And what you're going to find out is Commander doesn't use a ton of expensive stuff. You know, we got to do a show on prepping for $0.0.0. I was thinking about creating a big giant course, poor man's prepping course,

because I don't know, I'd just been really good over the years of doing things very cheaply. I don't know. And I could tell you, we've weathered a lot. We've weathered a lot in our household. Nothing too cataclysmic, right? But we've weathered a lot through the years. We'll see what this afternoon has to bring. We could add a new chapter.

Just for those of you who don't know, we're in a big line of tornadic activity from like 2 o'clock to 5 o'clock or something like that. Big massive wind gusts in the whole nine yards. Power goes out, I'm sure. Wind and big trees, you know how that good. It is early, though. Early season, the wind don't bring down the trees as. easily. It's also been pretty dry. You know, they don't have the leaves so that they're not

like sales. But whatever, you know, this is it. This is the natural disaster level preparedness. This is what one of the aspects of prepping. You know, what are the other aspects of prepping? Well, you know, you have tyranny, right? We're all prepping for tyranny. You don't buy AR-15s for a tornado. You know what I mean? We're all prepping for civil unrest. We're all prepping for tyranny. government oppression. We're all prepping in the battle to stay human. Right? We're all prepping in the battle to stay human and stay American.

Let's be real. Isn't that really what it all comes? That's why there's the undercurrent of Christianity. That's why there's the undercurrent of patriotism in the prepping community. Because we're all prepping to sustain that above all else. That's really what it is. You know? And for years and years and years, we've had to like beat around.

the bush you know you couldn't say that you couldn't say what your nation was literally founded on right you live in a place that was founded on the idea that government overreach is real people gain lots of power and then they become kings and humans aren't meant to live under kings you can't talk that way like that's crazy that's like a crazy for a long time anyway now it's impossible to ignore impossible to avoid you know you like even even those of us who voted Donald Trump Heaven forbid. Heaven forbid you voted for the other candidate. We even understand that there's a tinge of tyranny happening under his own presidency. Now you can explain it away with Congress, explain it away with radical leftists, whatever the situation is.

But you know, you know something's not. There are things that have happened since the man's been in office and you've been like, I don't know about that one. I don't know if I like that. I'm in case and point the war, right? We can justify it. If it all goes well, we'll look back and say great move. But, you know, it's not the way you do things. It's not the way we do things.

We don't just say, hey, we're going to go in and have a lot of ourselves a little war. Okay? Because the president wants to. But years and years and years, things have gone this way. We've gone, you know, in the direction of what it is. And what it is is bloated executive power that needs to be reigned. back in, right? The executive power needs to be rained back in. Too strong. The executive branch in the United States is too strong. And the legislative branch in the United States is too, what are they? They're too quiet.

Yeah. They're too quiet on the things that matter, right? The legislative branch needs to be more fervent in the protection of their representatives, not their ideologies. They've got to be more voracious on the Senate floor and on the floor of Congress largely and explain themselves, right? All the problems of Congress can be solved by forcing people to explain. That's it. Just force them to explain. So you want to pass this bill that would limit people's access to service to

certain firearms. Explain why and give us some data. And explain to me how the common man who carries a gun everywhere, it's never gone off, it doesn't go off like magic. They don't go, he doesn't pull it out and shoot people with it. He never will. Explain how, you know, how does that turn into a gun control problem that you need to take his gun or make sure he only has this magazine or that gun or this thing or that, you know, whatever.

By the way, how about the Richmond, Virginia 2A protesters? I didn't know this was going on or I'd have been there. Oh, I'd have definitely been there. I don't know how I missed it either. I've been paying a lot of attention to this stuff. You know, there was one email last week. One. Of all the emails that come through to me in a week, there was one I didn't open last week,

and I felt bad about it. And it was the Virginia Civil Defense League. It was the, they are the Second Amendment battlegrounds. And I did not open it. I was having a very busy end of the week. And I bet you, if I go back and open it, they'll say, protest! Big protest at the cap, well, it wasn't too big. It's kind of a smallish protest.

But I guess it was big for the situation in Richmond. Guys handing out P-Mags. And listen. So if you're thinking about, I've heard two really great things for those of you who are Virginia nights, right? Who are members of the Commonwealth of Virginia. I've heard two great things if you're looking to buy 30 round mags, right? I've heard two good ones. One, buy local, because these guys are in big trouble, right?

The guys who sell the 30-round magazines, buy small, buy local, because they're going to have a lot of stuff they're not allowed to sell very soon if all these laws go through and it's going to put them out of business. Let's just go right to it. What Abby's doing, the mother of mayhem, what the mother of mayhem our new government is doing is putting people out of business who sell these things because they're vilified,

because they've sold, I'd love to know how many, many just a little gun store owner how many magazines 30 round magazines he sold in his lifetime how many air 15s how many you know whatever you name it right you name the assault weapon in accoutrement and how many of those items were ever used to kill anyone or hurt even heard anyone geez even user error right even operator error very small almost probably none for the vast majority But those guys get to get put out of business because, well, because Congress and the representatives, your representatives in the United States have no idea what they're doing. And they're not there to protect you.

And they haven't been there to protect you in a long time. That just is what it is. I mean, that's the in and out of it. That's the quick up and down, right? So they had a protest. A lot of people out there talking about. you know protecting second amendment rights begging the mother of mayhem please don't take away my second amendment please which i hate and one of the guys wrote to p-mag and said hey we're going to have

a big protest would you mind sending a few magazines to give out because they're going to be outlawed soon in in our world and uh they sent a whole palette so everybody who showed up to the protest they handed a p-mag to a couple i don't know i wasn't there i don't know it's a beautiful story. It's a beautiful story. And here's why it's a beautiful story, because it's a reminder that people are going to take them home. Maybe they're going to fill them up. Maybe they're not going to fill them up. Maybe they'll resell them and try to make money. I don't know. But it's never going to hurt anybody. Right? It's never, the magazines are never going to hurt a person. They're never going to kill a person. You know what I mean? It's just bonkers to me that we've reached

this point. We can We've reached this point where an imam in a mosque in America teaching people how to stone women to death or, you know, the proper way to overtake Christianity is fine. Meanwhile, they're shooting and bombing and threatening bombing and throwing bombs. That's fine. And if you say anything about that, it's Islamophobic. But an American who wants to buy a firearm or, God forbid, a 30-round magazine. I mean, radical right wing. Radical right wing anarchist terrorist.

State of affairs, whatever. Boring, right? Boring stupid people making stupid laws that won't fix anything in the country. The day the law goes into effect, they'll probably be a shooting in Richmond, Virginia that'll be, you know, who knows, right? Most likely with a handgun that's unaffected by the same old thing, right? Same old thing. What are you going to do? Wake up every day and lose my mind over idiots on Capitol Hill.

I won't do it. I can't do it. You know, the coffee's too good and the PBN is too relentless. And the incredible PBN audience, too, by the way. We got a lot of great stuff coming up, folks.

Top tier guy I read something from Alex Hormosey The other day That I'm really going to start to To do my best with You may not know who he is I'm not going to explain who he is He's not some guiding light of mine

But I do read his work from time to time Because I respect his mindset But uh he said, he said, I'm going to forget it now. He said buy products from your friends' businesses and get free stuff from, you know, people you don't know's businesses, basically. In other words, it's kind of talking to content creators, but also talking to the average person, too. Like, when you're going to spend money, spend it with people that you appreciate, right?

In other words, don't badger, and nobody does this to me, you guys are all great, by the way. Don't badger your business owner friends for a freebie, right? Ask the big corporations or the large companies with whatever for a review product, a freebie, a test product, whatever, that kind of stuff. And then buy the things that you want. Spend your money with the people you know, you know and trust and appreciate. Goes a long way. You know, goes a long way. The other thing you'll find in our shop, Red Beacon,

Ready. Shop is a bunch of our friend's stuff. You know what I mean? In fact, I have to add the prepper disk in there today or this week at some point. Got to add the prepper disk. The prepper disc is on the board now. I mean, we can sell it and it's such a cool tool. I don't want to go into it because we're talking about enough stuff already. I don't want to get into war with Iran and all that kind.

I don't know. We've reached that sort of slog of war. right that slow slog of war now where all the sudden it starts to fade to the background and the calendar just paper just keeps ripping and before you know it five years go by and you're like oh we did the middle east thing again oh yeah yeah we did that middle east thing again i don't know if i could take another three years of don't know if i could take another three years of don't Trump, though, getting on the news saying we beat Iran while we're sending more troops and more stuff, you know what I mean?

I don't know if I could deal with that too much longer. But anyhow, so this is just what it is. You know what I mean? This is the state of affairs here at the United States of America. I don't know. Never forget the power that you have to control this world, okay? Never forget it. There is so much in the world nowadays that is designed to make you feel powerless, hopeless, helpless.

And, you know, you're like a few dietary changes, some lifestyle changes, a few chickens, a nice big garden, and a concealed carry license away from feeling really good about your state of affairs. I'm honest. I mean, you know, these things have a profound effect on the average person. have none of it going on. If you think you're walking around like in your pajamas and crocs thinking that like, you know, you're just a sheep to be chewed up by a machine, corporate or otherwise. I mean, it's easy to feel that way.

But it also doesn't take a whole lot of effort to sort of flip the script to all of a sudden be, oh, wait, I do have strength. I do have autonomy, baby. I do have my own will. I do have my own choices. And I've forgotten it. I've forgotten it because I thought my job was to sit here and flick the screen up and down and worry. And then fill my worried hours outside of work with, you know, like video games or something like that.

Nothing wrong with it. I love video games. But you've got to find the discipline and the will to strengthen your mind, strengthen your body. And... I have to say it out loud because it is true and it does exist and it will eventually come around. But I have been considering and kind of in my head working on a American culture something, presentation, podcast series, something. Because I keep running into things that are uniquely American culture. You know what I mean?

Like freedom itself. You know, freedom is not a thing that exists in people's minds everywhere. And watching the Iranians really made me think freedom is not a thing that people even want everywhere. It's not easy. You know, people think it's easy. The left wing in the country, they think it's supposed to be, give me everything and shut my critics up. But another thing, you know, and this is going to make you mad if you're poor or struggling. but listen, it's not what it sounds like.

Another uniquely American, culturally American thing, I think is resources. Like, I really think that. I really think, like, you think of the American continent and you think of resources, right? Like, don't you? You think, like, we founded this nation and we didn't really know what we were getting into. We didn't have geologists out west going like, oh, by God, dude, you got to get out here, right? But we happened upon this heaven on earth that is literally like a self-sustaining continent, right? And even so from the national perspective, we've taken advantage of that, right?

No, duh. Who wouldn't? Right? And the nation itself, the literal structure of the nation itself has sort of this innate security. And I think like security itself might even be American culture. Because these are things that are built into you that you don't really think about. But it's like Freudian. You know what I mean?

Not Freudian in the sense that it's Freudian, but Freudian in the sense that Freud created so much that fits into our society that we exist in it, we live in it without even realizing it's Freud. You know what I mean? It's Christ-like in many ways, right? Most people who aren't Christian live like Christians. You know what I mean? To some degree.

You know what I mean? They don't profess it. But they, you know, most people turn the other cheek. Most people love thy neighbor, right? Do unto others. The whole thing. We wouldn't have a society if that weren't the case, right? I mean, we're getting there.

You know what I mean? Every day I go on X and I see about 50 people punching each other in the face and kick at a quote unquote festival at a quote unquote mall at a quote unquote show at a quote event there's like a a stand clearing baseball style braw in the middle of an event and I'm going what and wigs are flying off and yeah what's happening here folks can we get ourselves under control but like I said we wouldn't have a society otherwise but there's something to be said about resources. And I'm not meaning like stacks of gold or stacks of cash.

But I think it really does have to do with self-sufficiency of resources. In other words, the opposite being, you know, it's not, I don't know that it's American culture to have everything you need owned by someone else and you have to go give them money for it. Right? You can say capitalism, capitalism, and that's fine. I don't have a problem with capitalism, but I do think that there's something about owning, managing, creating your own resources that is inherently American. And on top of that, understanding the natural resources that exist around you and taking advantage of them, right?

I don't know. I'll flesh it all out. I'll write it all out. Maybe it'll be my Thomas Payne moment. You know what I mean? But suffice it to say it's a thing. There's a thing. There are pieces of American culture that are coming together in my mind that are literally the culture. You know, a lot of people are always like Americans. I have no culture. They're just a melting pot.

No, I don't think so. More and more I'm starting to see what it really is. You know, I'm starting to see what the American culture really is. It's not been defined. You know what I mean? It's not really been well defined. It's hot. dogs and cookouts in mall trips no i mean it's there's a thing there you got to know american

history you know not a lot but a little bit um and really look at the continent and look at the governments and look at the businesses and look at sort of the experience and go back maybe about a hundred years imagine that before the amnesia began to really sort of understand like oh this this is american like when even when immigrants come to this country. They adopt this sort of idea and they adopt these sort of cultural things, right? Land. I mean, you know. So batting down the hatches, folks, charge up to backup power supplies, gas up the generators. God only knows what's coming to the southeast, east coast. Right now as we speak and in the coming hours, this is your time to shine as a prepper, right? This is this is the time to get the,

things working and get things together. So, you know, do that. Do that thing. Be prepared. Maybe Mother Nature leaves, excuse me, leaves nothing in her wake. And if that's the case, great. But we have time to prepare now, so we might as well do it, right? We might as well tighten things up, tie things down, fill things up, and plan for what it could be, you know, after. One of the, one of the, one of the, one of the, special bonuses we're getting here in Richmond is after the tornadoes and thunderstorms roll through we're going to get a temperature drop down to freezing so that'll be real nice you know power outage freezing the whole you know lovely talk you soon pbn family don't forget to support our great
