Come on, AMS. National Preparedness Month. Day 18, folks. 18 in a row. Knocking them out of the park, man. And I'm just sitting here asking questions. Being an interviewer is a good gig. It's a pretty good gig.

You don't have to think as much. This is the most interviewing I've done probably in, I don't know. Oh, well, maybe since our last, what did we do? our prepper camp sort of educator extravaganza. That was pretty fun too. I get a kick out of interview. People are cool. Well, our people are cool.

You know what I mean? And we've got a pretty cool people with us tonight. We're going to be talking about some, well, it's better to show you than to tell, I think. But who you're going to meet today is Tyler from Inart Mugs. And Tyler is one of those guys that wants you to succeed in life. And he's not selling you anything like a course to help you figure it out. He's going to sell you the coolest mug you'll ever own. But he's that way with everybody that I know that talks to him.

And every time I talk to him, he's that way. And it's just, I don't know, it's a real blessing to have a guy like that in your life. you know, and so many people are trying to like, you know, get over on you for something or, you know, whatever it is. So you're going to meet Tyler and we're going to talk about inert mugs. A big thing about inert mugs, folks, we're going to show you the inertmugs.com website. It's also linked in the show description. It's also linked on the Instagram. So, you know, if you hear it and you like it, if you see it and you like it, find one of those links and you'll be in business.

but he's also his mugs are also for sale at disaster coffee.com and if you haven't seen our new website make sure you go and check that out but without further ado let's bring on the man the explosive

Tyler overlord at inert mugs how you doing my man good to have you on the show a few months in the making thanks for having me have great team uh yeah yeah

it took a minute but I'm glad we finally solidify you and me both man you and me both and then now you froze up on it's a little bit you were lagging a or not you were lagging a little bit but go yeah yeah sorry oh it's all right don't worry well you know I'm just going to keep talking and pretending like I'm not lagging at all and I feel like you're going to talk and I'm going to talk and it's going to get cross so I apologize and advanced to everybody I wasn't supposed to be in the office this late but you know life happens so

here I am making the best of making the best of the situation well you're sound good now so we can get rolling. So you I think what we got to do is probably put the mugs up so people know what they're dealing with with you and what we're dealing with with inert mugs.

And you can explain sort of your motivation to create these things because they are awesome. I'm doing the van of white for those that are watching. I have my own today. My coffee has long since ran out. My disaster coffee, I should say,

as long as to pan out. But, um, yeah, I think this one's the Cal Fire. Um, this one actually is one of my unique hellfire misprice, but that's neither here or there. Um, well,

sorry, you asked the question. So the, uh, the inspiration or whatever, um, well, actually,

truth but told, I, uh, I had a business partner at one point. The company was under a different name. Um, things that don't always work out. But I had so much fun doing and I had so much fun,

making context that when we kind of split and the business went its way. Like I actually fell into a funk, like a noticeable funk where my wife was like, yo, you need to pull your head out of your butt and figure out what's going on. And I was just like,

I was like, hon, I can't let this know. It's like I had so much fun, you know, meeting people on, you know, I like to talk and I like to get to know people and just share stories. So I decided just to take just jump in um i know nothing about business at all i'm not formally trained by any means i'm here's a day my patron figure out man i get it i get it well you you got one of the biggest struggles out of

the way and that is uh developing an awesome product right i think you definitely have a that's true you know it go ahead yeah this is yes Sorry. So, again, this is something that I'm actually kind of shocked that there's really not more people doing it. So I was a prior explosive ordnance disposal technician in the Marine Corps, which is a really long, drawn-out way of saying, I was the guy from the Hurt Locker, for those of you that have seen that movie. And if you haven't, I was the guy that wore that big green bomb suit and walked down range when everyone else was walking away. So really, I just kind of drew on my inspiration and, like, all the day. I love blowing things up, literally. I've been doing bombs for 16, like 16 years now.

And I still know what I grew up. So I'm very lucky that I'm still in the industry. So that was really just my inspiration. It was like all the cool stuff that I got to encounter when I was in the Marine Corps doing the bomb disposal thing. Some of my other designs, like some of my most recent designs are the crayon tumblers. I was actually in the shower. Give everybody a look at those. Oh, we didn't lose them before the big story, did we?

Yeah, we'd lost Tyler for a moment. Hey, don't worry about it. I was so terrified. This is going to happen. Don't worry about it. I'm so sorry, everybody. No, it's all good, man. We'll do.

But, yeah, I don't know. in the shower. What was the last thing you heard? What was the last thing you heard? I was intrigued. It was in the shower and it just dawned on me. Yeah, because, you know, everyone makes fun of Marines for being crayon eaters. And I was just like, you know, I started just like, okay, if I was to design my own crayon, like, what would I call it?

And the first one that came to mind was Blue Falcon, you know, for the infamous Blue Falcon, which is somewhat a buddy effer. I'm not going to say the terrible word online. but uh so i just i'm like literally laughing to myself as i'm coming up with these crayon names and then that's what you see today a lot of this stuff look me here these are just like designs and i think yeah they all and i can look i can customize too you know and i actually did a run of uh navy crayons for my uh for one of my good friends and he's actually my coin guy too my coin supplier we did a whole series for the navy i've done a custom set for uh birthday presents So it's really fun, and that's one of my favorite parts about this industry and this job is getting to do custom work for people.

Because I always, I'm like, well, okay, tell me, like, I'm actually working on a 120 millimeter mortar right now, half 155, half WP. And it's like, well, explain to me why you want that. So that is great, man, because I get to hear their stories, especially the old guys. I did a torpedo for a dude that was like on a submarine. I mean, you talk about cool stories, dude. It's so much fun. I really do love it. Yeah, it's a great idea, man, and it feels like it kind of fits on a lot of levels.

You know what I mean? Because, like, I have no military background, but, you know, there's a lot of things here that are sweet. I think that CS Gas Tumblr is awesome. The thermite one is great. I mean, you know, for us, LARPERS in the audience, we would like this stuff, too, you know? And it's just really I really I think one of the best One of my personal favorites actually is

This is new I think I don't remember this when I first saw your website But your cheese spread with jalapinos from the MRE That is Yeah I feel like you could do a gang That one's new You could definitely do a game

You can make a mug right? Yeah Yeah we do ceramic coffee mugs too Actually your phone cases Your phone cases look great So actually in addition to, so look, man, I, you know, like you said in the intro, which by the way, beautiful intro, I appreciate it. You set the bar really high. Now I got to live up to it.

I love partnering with other, you know, like-minded individuals. Not everybody has to be a veteran like yourself, you said. But it's another fellow veteran that makes phone cases. And I actually bought, but I have three of them for my work phone. So this is one of them that's not on my work phone currently. And great. And there's no reason for us to compete, you know. I've got a couple I just recently this is a C4 block and it's also a coin holder. So, you know, I'm trying to, I'm doing my part to my fellow veteran business owners succeed.

Or like-minded individuals, I should say, because, you know, as for those of you that don't know, we do sell disaster coffee, which I freaking love, by the way. You know, small businesses, we need to work together. We need to work out for each other, you know? Well, one of my business partner, Phil, he is a, military veteran. So you're still holding up your veteran

brothers and sisters here. Well, and again, like minded individuals too, like you said, yeah, there it is. There's a lot of people. I've met so many people that they just, they want to take, they want to take more than they want to give.

Oh, no doubt about it. I think, like how long, how long have we, I think we've been maybe coming up on a year anniversary of working together. Yeah, probably about that.

Like three years to solidify a coffee company. Like, wow, how it would it take me three years to finally find a coffee company and didn't want to screw me over, you know? So I'm blessed. Thank you. I appreciate disaster coffee. Hey, man. Yeah, well, it's a good people thing is what it is. You know what I mean?

And in the prepping community, it's probably similar in the, I hope it's similar in the military veteran community. But one thing's for sure, in the prepping community, like they make a lot of good people. And when you find really good people, you latch on. So that's kind of what we, you know, that's our network. That's our whole, that's our literal network, our broadcast network, our people network. You know what I mean? It's just all good people. And if nothing else, guys, this is my business advice.

If nothing else, if you do business with good people, at least you get to do business with good people every day. You know what I mean? Whether you stay in business, go out of business, whatever happens, at least you get the pleasure hanging with people. And that goes a long way, man, because you can do business with miserable assholes, and that's no fun, you know? Yeah. And a lot of these people that I've worked with, a lot of the relationships that I've formed,

they've actually, like, grown into friendships. Like, one of my best friends that lives right down the road for me now, I met because I literally wouldn't have met him if I'd never done this. So, you know, like you said, surround yourself with good people. relationships can blossom from there. For sure. So the direct line is inertmugs.com, guys. You go there, you can look over the whole selection of mugs.

For those of you who are disaster coffee fanatics and are there on a regular basis, you'll see in our nav bar now we have our little inert mugs link there. And boom, you scroll down and you get a look at that style of stuff there too. So you have entered the fray, my man, in the disaster coffee world. And our new website, too, man. Andrew really did a good job with the new site and the new labels and everything. Oh, it looks great. Yeah, man.

It looks better now with your stuff in there. I can tell you that much. Now we got something to pour the coffee into. Yeah. There we go. Rumor has it, guys. We might, rumor has it that Andrew Bobo might be working on something disaster coffee-ish with inert mugs.

So keep your eyes peeled for that. That'll be fun. I've heard similar rumors too. So what do you see in the future? Any designs that are on the drawing board or any like pie in the sky stuff you want to do? Oh, man. You know, it's my vision is this big. It's feedback that doesn't always match the vision, right?

Isn't that always the problem? I do actually have a, I have designs that are already, I've already sent out for samples. I've already looked them over. I've scrutinized them. I like to do a little beta testing, if you will, with some of my friends and kind of get their feedback. One of the biggest, the biggest things is if I make them a stasis off of one of these ordinance mugs, I'm going to hear it from my community. Every EOD tech in the world is going to come at me.

So yeah, I've got some that have already been approved. I'm just waiting. I'm waiting. I got to clear some space out in the warehouse so that way I can, I got to make big orders at a time. So, you know, for those of you that are wondering what that is, some of those mugs I do make an house. And literally I print everything off and I'm in there sweating in my garage, making them. Others, I actually have a factory that makes it for me. And it's all really high quality UV printing, very expensive equipment that I hope to one day own.

and I hope to fully be doing this. That's where I need the population support. So buy 10,000 mugs from me and support me. Hey, it's a lot of people out there going to see this thing. So holiday times right around the corner. You know, inert mugs would probably do good with like a holiday. An annual holiday mug would probably be a really cool product. I'm sure you could get real spicy.

with something like that. And you know what I mean? That could be fun. Yeah. Under the missile and all that business. Well, Tyler, let's definitely make it a point to bring you back on. Anytime you release something, we'll bring you back on and we'll talk about it because, you know, you're part of the PBN family at this point. So we might as well have you on more.

Plus, I'm sure you got some great stories about blowing shit up that. you might as well talk about here, right? I don't know how many outlets you have for that stuff, but we'd love to have you back on. It's, I mean, yeah, absolutely. Like I said, I love talking. I love sharing stories and getting to know people. So I am up for it.

Whenever, if you guys aren't completely bored and sick of hearing me run my mouth, I'm more than willing to come back. Oh, we'll definitely have you back on for a longer show for sure. These national prepared in this month episodes are a little interesting. introductory at best. But we do appreciate your time, my man, folks. Moniana, bright and early. We will be live tomorrow with get ready.team,

the basics matter more than anything. Heat Force Pro was designed around a simple idea. One product, doing more than one job. Heat Force Pro turns a single heat source into three essentials, providing warmth, a place to cook, and generating USB power through high-temperature thermoelectric technology you can use for charging or powering a light source. It gets a job done cooking, charging, heating, everything for me to be. I mean, it's a good using product for the outdoorsman for sure.
