Episode Date: February 27, 2024

You're listening to PBN. You're playing back the stability. I cannot impress upon you the importance of the moment, this very moment that we are in. Welcome into PBN Daily News. I'm James Walton, your host for the next 20 minutes or so. Please subscribe to the podcast, leave us a nice review, give me a back rub, share it with your friends, and so on and so forth. But in all honesty, in all seriousness, I can't impress upon you the importance of this moment. The weather is starting to change somewhat. The food-producing capabilities of nature itself and of your own little plot of land, large plot of land, what have you, are coming into full effect. There's something about the end of February that triggers this in me every year.

Though I have trained myself to start earlier. To start planting gardens earlier. To start moving materials. To start doing these things earlier. Because in doing so, you're just more prepared. Because in doing so, you're just more prepared. We have more year over year. We produce more food than we did the year before.

Last year was a little bit of a low year, but that was an anomaly. There were some serious issues we had to deal with. But now's the time. It is February 27th of 2024. I don't want to talk about the condition of the world. I don't want to talk about the elections. You know the deal. If you're here, you know, that's the beautiful thing about people who listen to the Prepper Broadcasting Network.

Do you know what I mean? This is not a place where you just accidentally wind up. The people who come to listen to the Prepper Broadcasting Network are probably some of the most informed people on world news situations, threats, and so forth that exist. I mean, that's just the reality of the situation. And it makes my job a lot easier, I'll tell you that, because I know that you're already primed, right? The PBN listening audience is an engine that is already primed. So there's no need for me to go down the list of things to make you nervous. Has anyone else noticed that the mainstream media reads like old prepper news now? It really does. It reads like old school prepper news. Stuff. Stuff going

on. Stuff happening. Stuff doing. EMPs. Natural disasters. World War III. AI takeover. Economic woes, right? It could be my feed exclusively, but I see it in big-name publications like never before. It's really funny to me because we, in the prepper world, started doing that in order to get people's attention. And I think that the people in this dying media landscape are doing it because it's like their death rattle. Their death rattle is the end of the world is coming every day. And if that don't work, then what?

Now's the time to plan gardens. Now's the time to plan what you're going to do to produce protein in your world. Listen, I'm going to tell you something, guys. I've been running the ads. I've been talking about this company on Instagram, putting it in the newsletter. I really want you guys to understand from a food storage standpoint. You know, Bobo with the Matter of Facts podcast and Phil were talking about chemicals and pesticides in oats. We've talked in the Prepper community about arsenic in rice. We've talked about the components that make up your food storage and the potential for them to have, you know, the sourcing issues and the chemicals with it. Now, end of the world situation.

There's nothing to eat. People are eating leaves and robin bones. Then who cares about a little arsenic in the rice? But Sagra's plant protein is an amazing product. You have to understand what this is. I am hoping that you understand what this is. It's not necessarily the most important thing that you decide to buy their products, though they are a sponsor of the network, but it is important that you at first understand what they're doing. What are they doing for you? That's what I want you to know most. As we talk about food,

as we talk about food production, as we talk about protein like what can you put up that is shelf-stable with protein? I want you to understand these guys are putting shelf-stable protein on your shelf at home for $8.99 a pack. And listen, no, it's not freeze-dried beef. But what it is is it's an $8.99 purchase. If you subscribe, they have like a food subscription, a monthly I think it is, then it's less than that. It's like a little over $7.50. And you're talking about, well, you're talking about, what, 19 grams per serving?

You're talking about high-protein, clean protein, made-in-America protein now. I know. See, the disconnect for you guys is soy. You hear the word soy, and all of a sudden, your boobies get sore. Talking to the men. But listen, you guys need to understand, my wife has dairy allergies. We've been eating soy cheese for years, okay? Years.

And that stuff is hyper-processed. That can't be good for you. But we've been eating it. We've been eating it for a long time. I've never had any issues. This is a far superior product. The Bits of Grace by Say Grace Protein, you could go to Say Grace Protein and see what they have to offer. They're amazing, man. I'm telling you, what they do for you is allow you to put serious amounts of protein on the shelf right now for $8.99 a bag, and it'll sit there and be ready when you're ready. And because they did business, and this is all because they did business with us, by the way, which is why you have to give them their due. Because they did business with PBN, right? Because we talked to them, because I said to them,

oh, I'm mixing this stuff into my rice that I store in five-gallon buckets, because these guys are preppers. They sell to vegans. They have a vegan following because those are the people that understand soy protein at its cleanest and at its best. But the reality is the people who own the company get it. They get it. So now they're selling five pound bits, buckets of grace for $99. You get five pounds of this dry protein,

right? You can get the bits, which are like little chunks. You can get the shreds, which are like shredded meat in texture. And they send you the Mylar bag. They send you the five gallon bucket. All you got, I'm going to get one and I'm going to show you guys how to do it. All you got to do is add your rice to the five pounds of bits. And you have, like I said, in an emergency, now you have rice and protein in one Mylar bag. I've already cooked the mix before. I cook the mix. The mix cooks up. You cook the rice the way that you normally cook rice, two to one. Bring it to a boil until it gets stodgy.

Lid on. Steam it until completion. The bits are fully cooked. The rice is fully steamed. You're in business. You could cook it in broth. You can add spices, whatever you want. This is the way I'm storing rice from now on.

Why? Because what are you talking about? Look, we already struggle to get enough protein, and the older we get, the harder it will be to get protein, the amount of protein that you need. You need a lot. It's not easy to eat all the protein that optimizes the human being. This is what happens to people as they get older. They need to eat even more protein, and most of them eat less protein because your body gets a resistance to amino acids, right? Your body builds this amino... This is not... I'm not a genius. I'm repeating what my favorite nutritionist, Dr. Rhonda Patrick, says, okay? Just so you know. She's a real genius.

She does the work. She does the studies. Check her out. She's great. But as you get older, you develop an amino acid resistance. You need even more protein. So, yeah, if I got eggs, if I'm going to take the eggs that we raise in the backyard, right, and I'm going to scramble them up, put some curry powder into it,

make some white rice, onion, whatever, put that over rice, great. That's a great food. Maybe add beans, right? But if I can slip in even more protein through this soy source, why wouldn't I do it? The process, you can read about the process and how they do it. It is so minimally processed, man. They use steam, they use pressure, they use water. They wash the phytoestrogens off. The process eliminates the rest of them through high heat. You don't have to worry about it. I did not intend, just so you guys know, in all clarity.

I start these podcasts. I'm going. I'm giving you what's in my heart and soul. I did not intend for this to be a Say Grace protein ad. But we're talking about food production. And the hardest thing for you to raise, if you don't raise eggs, that is, is protein. Or if you have people in your household that don't like eggs. Raising protein is no picnic, man.

I don't care what anybody tells you. It's not easy. It's expensive. And in an SHTF scenario, it's going to be even harder. Because what's the biggest problem with raising animals in an SHTF situation? It's food. Right? Because what's the biggest problem with raising animals in an SHTF situation? It's food, right? My game plan always has been if I ever move to the hinterlands, which I don't think I ever will.

I think there's a lot of value in doing what I do. Being the guy at the—oh, I want to tell you about that. No, I'm not going to tell you about that. I'll tell the members about that. I'm sorry. I don't mean to be a jerk with that kind of stuff, but there's some things that are funny. And they're worthy of your ears too, but I want to give the members a shot first because I don't want to go on a 30-minute podcast. Okay? So it's a separate thing.

It's not – whatever. Let's just suffice it to say, artificial intelligence has a crush on me. That's all I'm going to tell you, all right? I found this out by accident. It's pretty funny. I will expand upon it, but not right now. But protein production takes a lot of food. If you want a good plan, if you're living in suburbia and you want to leave or in the city and you want to get your 20 acres somewhere and be effective in the community, it's very easy to wrap your head around.

I'm going to go grow all my own food and all my own food and all my me, my, me, my. If you want to be a valued person in a serious collapse situation, co-ordinate off a good chunk of that land, clear it, and grow field corn. Grow things that animals can eat. Seriously. That is exactly what I will do. Should I ever decide to leave the beautiful city of Richmond, Virginia, which, you know, it's going to have to be burning all on the horizon in order for me to even consider it probably.

It's going to have to be 1865 for me to... I don't know if people know enough history to understand that reference. But whatever. If I ever do head out to a big plot of land, a large chunk of that land is going to be dedicated to growing animal feed. And that's because I want to be Mr. Animal Feed. There's a lot of benefits to it.

I can't go into that right now. Again, another topic. I just can't go into it. This is PBN. Oh my god. Jesus in heaven. Hang on. Crisis. topic i just can't go into it this is a pb oh my god jesus in heaven hang on crisis i'm sorry guys i think they put cocaine in the coffee today at my favorite coffee shop i just spilled it all over my keyboard i had to pause and dry it before we before we were ruined uh we need to get into one threat one solution okay i'm sorry i i'd love to keep on ranting and raving i'm sure you probably get tired of it yourself but uh we got to get going here what did i get i got an image oh can't do it

let me read this to you real quick this from chin in the back channel this is funny happy tuesday the uk has reclassified disney's 1964 movie mary poppins okay from a u rating which means universal, to a PG because of discriminatory language, quote-unquote. In the film, Admiral Boone uses the word hottentots, not once but twice. This derogatory word that Europeans once used for South African nomadic groups. The UK is really tackling the most important issues facing civilization. Thank you, Chin, for that. Shout out to Redacted. So, yeah, you know.

It's good to know that while we do what we do, you know, there's a lot of people who are out there doing the real important work. All right, let's get into one threat one one third one one threat one solution one solution Brought to you by the Gray Man Briefing. We have a really pretty interesting major incident in infrastructure and preparedness. In Mexico City, Mexico, one of the top five largest population cities in the world, more than New York City. I have heard nothing about this until now, by the way. This is what the folks at the Gray Man Briefing can do if you're interested in getting

their briefs. They're suffering from a prolonged water shortage. Parts of the city have no running water. Other parts only get running water for two to three hours per day, low pressure. Many citizens have obtained tanks to collect rainwater imagine while much of the urban populace is ordering water deliveries and buying bulk bottled water some neighborhoods reported there has been no water for three weeks debrief the situation isn't expected to improve until june a day zero when the entirety of the city is out of all running water, is projected for May. Much of the water that the city depends on is from a near-depleted aquifer, which is now leading to the city sinking 20 inches per year as the aquifer lowers.

Wowee. The remaining water comes from elevated resources outside the city where piping systems degraded and mismanaged infrastructure leads to a loss of 40% of water being pumped. Infrastructure concerns are also plaguing the U.S. until a major incident occurs. Citizens of the U.S. cities may be unaware of how close they live to crisis every day. Conduct an area study of the area you live in. Plan ahead. conduct an area study of the area you live in plan ahead this is uh most of it soars from cnn climate mexico city water crisis climate intel you know that it's not the fact that they didn't take care of the infrastructure or monitor the aquifer it's the fact that they uh climate change and climate be scared don't do anything there's nothing you can do. Your life is over. You're

dead. Can you imagine? Just think about this before I go into the one solution. Can you imagine that the people in the conservative households, the people in the preppers' households, my children, the prepper families that listen to this podcast, the prepper hosts and their families. Can you imagine that those kids are going to be the ones that go into the future with the most hope? Think about that. My parents prepare for the end of the world. And that's the beauty of prepping that most people don't understand. It's that in the prepping of all this, you understand just how much power the individual

has and how much you can take control of your own life. I'm writing a book for a client right now all about water. Actually, it's all about atmospheric water generation. And I may be able to showcase all of that stuff to you, but at the very least, I'd really like to get you in on the book. It's a shorter book. There's five distinct projects in it. Three of the five could probably solve 75% of your water needs. They're really powerful projects, particularly if you live in a humid area. But atmospheric water generation, basically just pulling water out of the air from the humidity, basically just pulling water out of the air from the humidity, pulling the humidity out of the air, trapping it, you know, bottling it, remineralizing it, which was just a fancy word for adding salt.

This is something you can do, you know. These are easy things. What's easier? Rain barrels. Rain, IBC tote rain barrels. Rain, IBC tote rain barrels. 330-gallon IBC tote on the back of your house on one water spigot. 330 gallons? You know what, that's a lot of... That's a lot of water, man.

Do you know? We take care of water on a number of different ways here. We've got a creek. Even though we live in an urban area, we have a creek. I never would have imagined having a creek. First of all, growing up, I never would have imagined having a creek, period. It was poor, you know what I mean? My rich aunt had a little creek out back, but I never would have imagined moving into a place with a creek for the purpose of water. Because when we bought the home, we didn't we weren't preppers. We bought this place not because of its, you know, the many benefits and the benefits of where I live are unbelievable. Like. Yeah, I've done whole trainings on positioning because of what I've learned from living here. But anyway, um, beyond that, you know, this was just a, uh, uh, hey honey, which house do you want to live in call made by my wife and she made the right one. Oh my God. Did she ever make the right choice? And then year, a year or two later came the prepping,

and all of a sudden I understood, wow, we have a deer farm on our property. The one beautiful thing about living in a suburban area, particularly a developing suburban area, is the constant encroachment of humanity is just filtering deer onto my property in droves. You know what I mean? So one threat, one solution. Listen, we're learning that one of the most populous cities in the country, I mean, in the world is running out of water. What do people do immediately? They're catching rainwater. Why wait till chaos? Why wait till calamity? Catch rainwater now.

Well, I'm not allowed to do it. Do it covertly then. We're living in one of the lawless times of all time, guys. Wake up. You know what I mean? It's one of the most lawless moments in history. The former president of the United States has 90 felony convictions. Do you understand 90 felony convictions? Do you think that that happened? He was president. It's not like nobody knew who Donald Trump was and what Donald Trump was doing before he became president. 90 felony convictions. You can walk into stores in California,

steal $900 worth of things, right? We're living in a lawless time. Get creative, okay? Put at least one rain barrel on your home. Because you know what's going to happen one day? The same people that tell you you're not allowed to have rain barrels are going to tell you, we're really sorry, but the city can no longer provide you with the water. The water system has been compromised by a terrorist attack. Shore up your water now. You can do it. You can do it. Shore up your water sources now.

Store water in the home. Store tap water. You have unlimited tap water. You can buy water bricks. You can store them. You can pile them up in a closet. You can stack water bricks. Put a piece of round plywood or maybe even rectangular plywood on top of them and make a table out of it. You could build a square frame around them and make a table out of it. You know what I mean? Get creative.

Hell, you could probably build bench seating with those things if you were slick. What are these seats made out of? They're very comfortable. Get creative. Get your water hand. Your water should not be something you wake up and worry. When I read that one to you, you shouldn't get all nervous. You should be able to say, like right now, there's hundreds of gallons of water at my disposal as we speak. That's where you want to be. I don't live on a homestead a million miles

away from people. I don't have 10 acres of land. I don't even have one acre of land. So I don't live on a homestead a million miles away from people. I don't have 10 acres of land. I don't even have one acre of land. So I don't want to hear about I can't do it and I don't have enough space. You got gutters? Do you have gutters on your house? You could do it. Gutters and about 200 bucks and you can have easily over 100 gallons of water. Man, we're going long today. Let's get into the SHTF Chef.

Looks like there's some turbulence up ahead. It's a good thing you found us. We are the Prepper Broadcasting Network. network. Today on the SHTF Chef, I want to talk to you about force meats. I think we've talked about stuffings in the past. I want you to understand, first and foremost, if you're new to the broadcast, that I'm a trained chef. I spent many years learning, many years in the business of cooking. From diners all the way up to Center City, Philadelphia, some of the best places to eat in the area. Maybe even in the nation. So I try to apply those techniques to the prepping world so that you guys can get the most out of what you're doing. Force meats are largely a protein-based stuffing, mostly used in things like terrines and pâtés, which not a lot of people eat anymore.

Not a lot of stuffing going on at all in food much anymore, and it's delicious. It's delicious. You know, it's terrible. We used to do an amazing stuffed leg thigh of chicken. So it's just a thigh of chicken. We would make a chicken sausage with roasted shiitake mushrooms in it, which is largely a forced meat. A sausage is a forced meat, to make it simple, to give you a simple example. We would pipe that, we would roast the shiitake mushrooms in a pan, pan roast them. Then we'd grind it up with the sausage, chicken meat, chicken fat, seasonings, mushrooms. We would put it in a piping bag and pipe that stuffing into the chicken leg, right? we would put it in a piping bag and pipe that stuffing into the chicken leg, right?

And then we roulade it. So we'd roll that chicken leg up and tie it. Sometimes we'd wrap it in bacon and that kind of thing. You could do it with chicken breasts too if you don't like chicken thighs. And what you wind up with, man, is this delicious and moist chicken leg meat stuffed with this incredible force meat. Now, why the force meat concept is so important is because no matter how fancy French food was or is, right, when you do it in a restaurant industry, there's always cost. So the motivation is to make something incredible from nothing.

And the more you can do that, the better, you know, the more profit you're going to make. So the force meat came from the idea of how do I utilize scraps? In other words, I'm trimming a chicken up. You know, there's a certain amount of fat. There's a certain, any animal that you're trimming up, there's a certain amount of undesirable bits. In beef, you've got shin meat. You've got all kinds of weird meat on animals that is overworked and tough. It's not something you can sear up and eat right away.

Maybe you've got to stew it or whatever. Well, the concept of the force meat is grind it. Grind it up. Grind it up with fat on top of it so you know, so that it's delectable. Add seasonings and use it as a stuffing. Use it as stuffing within meats. Use it as a stuffing, you know, in vegetables. You know, people don't do that either anymore. My mother would make stuffed cabbages. She would make stuffed peppers. She would take a ground beef that was sort of, what's the word I'm looking for? Stretched, if you will, with cooked rice

and season that up. Awesome. If you do start producing your own protein or if protein becomes scarce, you're not going to want to do things like trim away parts of fish and not utilize them, trim away parts of chicken and beef and pork and not utilize them. Like the days of waste are over then. So how you utilize those things becomes important. Everything can be ground if you have a meat grinder or minced if you don't you know what i mean and and mixed up if you if you do it with seafood if you do it with fish if you do it with crustaceans whatever add a little egg white to it also grind it up don't add fat add egg white and it'll solidify as a little seafood stuffing guys these techniques were not created to survive the end of the world. They were created to make a profit. Some of them might have been created in the countryside of France, maybe, so

that, you know, people with less money could eat and eat well. But look into force meats, okay? But look into force meats, okay? Understand the concept of turning meat, scrap, and fat into something delicious that you can eat. You can poach force meats. I mean, really, you can take a force meat and poach it in a broth and eat it just like that, almost like a meatball. You could sear a force meat and eat it that way in a sauce. It's really, you know, up to you,

but it takes practice. It takes practice to sort of figure out, you know, how much meat to fat do I want for this application? How much, you know, get back into stuffings, man. Stuffings go a long way. They fill you up. They add, you know, they add sort of a hardiness to a meal. And if you add meat to them, protein to them, then they become a source of protein like that, right? All right, folks, let's finish this out with a standout piece of, I guess you could call it poetry. It's more of a short story than it is a poem, and it's very rare. It comes from the anthology, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, an anthology by E.L. Lucas. This was a book I found in Yorktown, Virginia one day when we were at the beach. They have a great bookstore down there, and I rolled in there, and I seen Dante Gabriel Rossetti anthology. I'm buying it.

And he wrote a short story called The Orchard Pit. And The Orchard Pit is a nightmare of his. And it's a really spooky tale about men falling for this siren who sings, Come to love. And the sweetness of love. She said many things. And the next she sang come to life and life has was sweet in her song. But long before I reached her, she knew that all her will was mine.

And then her voice rose softer than ever. And her words were come to death. It really is like. This story really is reminiscent of poe yeah it's definitely like an Edgar Allan Poe but we're gonna read the end I'm gonna read you the ending not that there's like a big plot twist but it's just really cool come to death and death's name in her mouth was the very swoon of all sweetest things that be. And then my path cleared, and she stood over against me in the fork of the tree I knew so well, blazing now like a lamp beneath the moon,

and one kiss I had of her mouth as I took the apple from her hand. But while I bit it, my brain whirled and my foot stumbled, and I felt my crashing fall through the tangled bows beneath her feet and saw the dead white faces that welcomed me in the pit. And so I woke cold in my bed, but it still seemed that I lay indeed at last among those who shall be my mates forever and could feel the apple still in my hand. 1869, Dante Gabriel Rossetti.

Whew, that's powerful. That's powerful, PBN family. 1869 Dante Gabriel Rossetti Whew That's powerful That's powerful PBN family It's a great story The Orchard Pit Read it It's really cool There's a lot of

Biblical Sort of parallels There's a lot of sort of You know What's the word Femme fatale Sort of parallels It's great what's the word? Femme fatale sort of parallels. It's great.

It's his book of tricks. But I think that's it for me, folks. I do appreciate you guys. Please consider membership if you haven't yet. This is the year to be a PBN member.

support our sponsors. Go to Say Grace Protein and check them guys out. Leave your preconceived notions out of the picture, okay? Read about their process. Read about what they do. And then wrap your head around the fact. And wrap your head around the idea that you could have totes filled with clean, American-made, American-sourced, homegrown protein, okay? Wrap your head around that for $8.99 a pack. You know what I'm saying? Think about it. Dehydrated, long-term, shelf-stable, $8.99. There's not a lot of

protein options like that out there. I will talk to you guys soon. Thank you so much. It is PBN Daily News, your path back to stability. See ya.
