We are the proper broadcasting network.
Hello everyone out there on Internet Radio Land.
This is Dave Jones, the NBC guy, coming to you on this Saturday before Easter.
Saturday, Saturday.
Actually, Saturday in our faith is pretty big.
Pretty big.
We went to church this morning and I feel great.
We had communion.
And did you hear Stephen Minken?
The PBN Chaplain?
Did you hear his Good Friday message?
Gosh, every great organization needs a wonderful chaplain and we got the best.
We have the best here at PBN.
Well, I'll tell you, I'm just feeling very positive, very up, very hopeful right now.
You know, it's a good feeling.
It's a good feeling. It's a good feeling. Yep.
So, I wanted to talk to you, the reason I came on.
Well, I want to talk about rations and ruin.
Of course, you know, on Monday, the whole He-Haw Gang is getting together and we're
dividing up our rations and talking about what's going on
I am not stressed about this exercise at all at all
We fast around here regularly
Maria just completed a week long nothing but water fast
We you know It's it's what we do even even nothing but water fast.
It's what we do. Even we fast for religious reasons,
but even besides that, we just fast.
So I don't think it's gonna be that big a deal.
And boy, if you can eat eggs,
I get about 20 eggs every day from the chickens we have.
We just hatched another batch as a science experiment
and we're gonna be doing some butchering this week.
So I may save one of the rabbits until,
you know, we get into the exercise and then butcher it then
because, you know, we you know we would we would you know it all has to do
with you know your experience level well let me ask you this the first time you
crack open those freeze-dried meals and eat them and you know ration your food. Do you
want the first time you experience that to be the first time there's a disaster?
No, you don't want too many firsts. You want to have something to go back on in
your memory bank to say oh yeah this is that, so this is what should happen.
You don't want too many firsts.
I always give the example of,
I was helping to train some scuba divers,
brand new scuba divers, and we went to the Gulf of America now and
we swam off the shore of Florida, the panhandle of Florida, around Destin.
Anyways, these guys had never been in the open ocean.
Never swam scuba dived in the open ocean. They had never scuba dived off of a boat.
Okay?
Had never scuba dived at night.
Yeah, were too many first.
Had never scuba dived,
I think, to that depth,
because it was over 40 feet. I think 40 feet was their max at that time.
So, you see where I'm going.
One lady came up from that, and she says,
I'm not going back out.
She had paid for the whole weekend, every trip,
and she didn't.
She did not go back out.
It was too many firsts.
People stress level.
One guy threw up in his regulator.
He didn't want to take it out of his mouth
long enough to throw up and then put it back in.
What a mess. What a mess. So you don't want
too many firsts. And your stress level, you know. So maybe my coping mechanisms are more
than the average person. I have been shot at. I have had a gun pointed at me, okay?
So I know my stress level for those things were maximum.
So maybe I just have coping mechanisms.
I was in a combat zone for 22 continuous months where
every time you went out to your vehicle you had to check for bombs and stuff was
blowing up. You had to you know constantly be aware of your surroundings
and what was going on. So you know two years, 22 continuous months of that kind of situation.
So maybe that.
But anytime you can stress yourself, where you can control, you know, if this exercise
is bad, we can turn it off.
We can just say, okay, I'm done. But in an SHTF situation,
you can't say, okay, I'm done. So you should experience it for that alone. Yeah, not too
many firsts. So you don't want all those firsts to be happening at the same time
SHTF is happening.
Because that's the first time you experience that.
And undefined expectations.
Yeah.
Undefined expectations.
This, uh,
the army went through this for a period of time. We would actually
define success. The commander's intent would define success because in the five paragraph
op order, we didn't know, you didn't know what success was. So they added that commander's intent or defined success so you had to know when that was
enough you know too many times people will get to where I have an expectation
in my head and when it doesn't look like what I have in my head then there's
disappointment resentment all that kind of stuff.
So you want to define your expectations to know what success looks like.
Yeah, it happens all the time when we go on vacation.
Maria will lead me to make the arrangements and then when it doesn't meet her expectations
She tells me about it instead of telling me about I want this this this and this
You know, it's like do something and I'll tell you if you did it wrong
No
Tell them show them
Demonstrated, you know, that's the way you got to do things.
This is what I expect, X, Y, and Z. And that leads to success.
So, that's pretty much it. I've rationed and ruined. We were getting together on Monday. You'll probably hear something from the Intrepid Commander
and myself about the video, the January 6th video.
And you may get a little bit of, you know,
back channel stuff with us setting up Ration and Ruin.
Because the gang's coming here.
We're gonna divvy up our loot so to
speak and then we kick it off the month of May too easy but you know we will
gain some knowledge we will add to our stress level, our experience, you know, if I eat this stuff this is how
long this will last me or you know this is what my digestive tract does on
freeze-dried food. And the only stress we're gonna have is well I'll be
teaching school and everybody else will be doing their normal jobs, so
That's the stressor
Okay, PBN family. Oh, hey, I gotta tell you
