Society in every state is a blessing.
The government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil.
The future has already arrived.
Welcome in everyone, surviving America.
Oh, duh. Something or other.
I don't know.
Sometimes I type numbers in there that are right.
Sometimes they're completely wrong.
Let's get up on the screen here.
Welcome in.
Instagram.
What do we got?
X?
No, no X today.
X can go to hell today.
Instagram.
Rumble.
YouTube, the heart of darkness.
The heart of darkness.
They don't like political talk.
They don't like music.
They don't like AI music.
They don't like copyright free music.
They don't like anything over there.
It really is a microcosm of sort of the left-wing misery that encapsulates the whole movement.
by in large.
So I want to talk to you folks today.
What's going on?
What's happening in your worlds and your minds on surviving America?
I've been doing a lot of planning, thinking, getting a lot of consulting done with listeners, members, humanity at large.
And to be quite honest with you, I'm a little interested in kind of what's going on in the back of your guys' heads.
A lot's happened in the United States.
A lot's happened in the world.
And I don't know.
What I've been missing?
What's up?
Cosmo, how you doing, man?
The Garden Girl with us today.
Oh, boy, this is going to be a good one.
Should I move to Rumble?
I can't really comment there.
Oh, yeah, that's a good point.
That is a good point.
The Phoenix is in here.
What is up?
The All-Star Corps is arriving.
Should you move to Rumble?
Yeah, Rumble's weird with the stream yard.
I don't know.
rumble's decent we're there every time the thing about rumble is we're there every time i don't know
why we're there every time we have a pretty decent following over there um but yeah you know it's
there's the podcast is where it's at all of you watching through instagram through rumble through
youtube you've got to go to spreeker you've got to watch the podcast or listen to the podcast
listening to the podcast will make you a better prep or two because you're not stationary in front of this thing, right?
And if I do it here, I'm going to do it in the podcast, all right?
Now, we have to take a brief, we have to take a brief break because I forgot to let the dogs in.
Okay, so enjoy this clip.
Enjoy this ad, actually.
We're going to run a real quick ad video while I go let the dogs in.
Okay. The preppers medical handbook, the one and only. Check it out. We're back. I didn't mean to get into an ad that quick. But it just dawned on me, boom, forgot to let the dogs in. We got problems. It's like, you know, 20 some degrees out. Garden Girl over there, third the snow day in a row. Hey, you guys, get out of here. Put that shoe down. Gumba.
The dogs may be a feature in today's show. They may be a feature.
feature because they're both a little riled up, the young one, the youngest of the two, and
they want to have a good time. Sorry, chewing on a boot. I didn't, I don't want you over here.
I didn't call you to come over here, buddy. Not right now. So, we get a lot. I mean, we got a lot
in on the back burner, but what I was getting at before the break and before the dogs was
pretty simple. The podcast is where it's at. The podcast is where it's at. The podcast is where
that if you're looking for interaction, Cosmo in particular, we're going to bring back,
no doubt. We're going to bring back the Element Live chat room. Okay. The Element live chat room is
coming back. Element is coming back in a big way. We've got a lot of people over there now.
I kind of let it sort of die on the Vine a little bit for a while. But we're going to bring it back.
element is like everything with PBN we're always ahead okay I'm like that in real life my kids are
like that you know what I mean it's just one of those things and sometimes you get your so far ahead
on a thing that you don't even trust it and really I got to thank Chin for element but chin put us in
an encrypted chat room that we built into like 12 or 20 encrypted chat rooms I think it is
that our audience used to play on,
but it took a lot of steps to get in there.
This was years before, you know,
I'd say two or three years before Telegram,
you know, what's the one we use, Signal,
all that kind of stuff.
We were in an encrypted sort of forum slash chat room.
And pass key and the whole nine yards.
And it was a lot of hoops for people to jump through.
And personally, I kind of lost confidence in it,
even though we have a ton of people over there.
My bad on that.
But we have a live show room over there.
And what we'll do is we'll just go back to doing the live chat room over there.
Now, we do have some sort of future like radio call-in stuff that we'd like to do
and probably in the second half of the year, too.
Gardner Girl says she loves that element's been blowing up these past couple days.
Yeah, I'm sorry about that.
That's really on me.
I go in there and start playing around.
We can have some fun again.
We got our great fitness room in there.
We got all kind of great stuff in on the tinfoil hat landing pad over there.
I mean, it's a fun.
It's fun.
It's basically a room made up by the fans of PBN.
I don't know.
Too many, too many things.
So that would probably be your best bet, Cosmo.
If you want to DM me over on Instagram, I'll get you a link to get into that live chat room.
And we'll get in there and all that kind of stuff.
I'll pop in right now.
What the hell?
Let's pop into the element.
I was already in now.
element today. But let's pop in there. God, the news is so vapid and nightmare. He opened the news
is like, if there's nobody dying in no war, then it's all just sirens. You know what I mean?
Do you know what? Do you guys understand what I mean when I say sirens? If you don't know what I
mean when I say sirens, I want you to think about it. I'm not going to explain myself. But it's war,
it's death, it's outrage, and sirens.
sirens. That's what it is. That's the whole
of the American media.
You know what I mean? I have
no idea what Cosmo means. He says
one of the issues with it is spam, server
loads, CSAM, and when it is
connected to other servers with the federated
model. So, this is
what we do, Cosmo with ours,
if you're talking element.
Hold on one second.
I'm in the live chat.
What the
bleep.
So
So our live chat is for everybody, right, over at Element.
It's for anybody.
We give you a link.
You can come to the link and Bing, Bang, Boom.
Every other chat room is invite only.
So we bring you into the live, look you up and down, empty your pockets, you know, the whole thing.
And then we invite you into the other room.
So, yeah, that's how that goes.
So again, largely, I had like six different show ideas in my head.
I think we're due probably a PBN state of the union.
We're probably doing American state of the union.
We are definitely doing another mother of mayhem.
If you haven't checked out the mother of mayhem show yet, you've got to watch that.
That is going to be a new series, a new Virginia-focused series because of the wonderful
and talented Abigail Spanberger and her Marxist attack on my state already right out of
gate. I don't want to get into it in detail here. It really, Mother of Mayhem really is going to be
sort of my political outlet, right? I mean, Garden Girl, you're not lying. She says only the cool
kids get the invite. You're not lying. You know what I mean? Well, that's kind of what it is,
right? If you can't, ah, good pups. If you can't find a club that'll let you in, you just build
your own club, right? Like one of those things. Or what was the Groucho Marx line? Any club, I wouldn't
join any club that would have me, something like that.
So, I don't know, I'm in one of these kind of moods, you know what I'm saying?
It is what it is.
What's been on top of mind for you guys lately?
Watching the U.S., watching the world turn, Donald Trump clearly got mine and Papa Liberty's
recommendation to reduce the force, remove the force, chill out, pair back with the ice
so that, you know, we don't wind up in a total nightmare come election time.
He got the easy. Dave Jones message me, though, they say, said Donald Trump listens to PVN, I guess. I don't know if he was happy about it or miserable.
Freedom sells as kind of a club, says Cosmo in Instagram.
There's some pockets of really cool people on Instagram. There's a lot of great Instagram channels that are doing fun stuff.
I don't know. I'm not on it hardly anymore. And I think it's better. You know what I mean? I think it's kind of better.
But yeah, I mean, the world turns, right?
It is kind of what it is.
As preppers, I will say, like, Cosmos says, the United States of Somalia.
Yeah, I used to call it the United States of extortion.
And I think we're still kind of there in a lot of places.
The United States of extortion.
So one thing I think we have to be real careful of as preppers is sort of how,
patched in to all of this news.
We are and we assume the country is.
You know what I mean?
Like one of the things that that gets you into preparedness or keeps you into preparedness is you like the news.
You like that you like that things are getting a little feisty out there.
You know what I mean?
There's no denying it.
Or you want to be in the know.
You want to know what's going on.
You know these kinds of things.
I mean, it really is what it is.
And I think one of my blind spots lately has been assuming that everyone is so in tune.
Assuming that everyone's so in tune, hey, assuming that everyone's so in tune and everyone
wants to know as much as I want to know or cares as much as I care.
I forget that there's like a silent majority of people out there who want to work and, you know,
go home and watch the game and forget.
get about it, right? I think being in proximity to my dad reminded me of that. Because the other thing
you have to be really careful of, too, is to, and the internet makes it so easy. And I'm blessed
because I got people like the Phoenix who are not afraid to counter me and also keep on me.
But what's really dangerous is, you know, getting in one of those internet echo chambers. You
could build a whole community. You know, a guy like me would be very easy to manipulate the whole
line up, manipulate the listeners to just a group of people who say, man, James is great.
Isn't he wonderful? Is it everything he says really good? It's super easy to be in that sort of a
situation. And then you're really screwed. I mean, that is such a massive pitfall in life. You have
no idea. And I see it in some of you, okay? I see it in some of you out there listening. I really do.
I see that you are in an echo chamber.
You are trapped in an echo chamber.
I see that when a counter opinion shows up, you know what I mean?
It's cleave to the rhetoric, right?
So be careful about that.
Probably one of the best things that anyone can do is to find someone who's relatively
articulate on the left, which is just a struggle.
Find someone who's relatively articulate and not captured to the furthest degree.
They're always going to be captured to some degree.
and listen to them.
And learn how to listen to people you don't agree with, right?
Learn how to listen to people you don't agree with and go,
where's the pattern, where's the common ground?
Is there common ground?
Sometimes you listen to people on the left,
like, you know who I tried to listen to for a little while?
Was that guy Destiny?
He started popping up in places.
He disappeared now because he got obliterated online,
and his wife cheated on him or I don't know.
The whole thing, nothing went well for him.
imagine that blue-haired left-wing gamer guy.
So, but he was one of these guys that I was listening to, and I was just, I want to hear.
I want to hear what this guy has to say.
I want to hear his points.
I want to hear his platitudes.
And, yeah, he was found wanting.
And that's a good thing, too.
I did the same thing with Russell Brand years and years ago.
I remember, I remember being a.
embarrassed to come on the show and do my live show and say, I would listen to Russell Brand and
like, he sounds like he might be on the right track.
And now, you know, what's he up to now? Last time I saw he was like doing a show with no shirt
on. I'll tell you what, Russell Brand, look, if we got any like real big fans of Russell
brand, let's do a shirts off show. Okay, I'll wear as many crucifixes as I can. You wear as many
beads as you can and crosses and we'll do no i'll keep growing my hair out beard out and we'll do like
our very best um we'll do our very best like yoga guru in appearance and conservative in talk show how about
that you up for it i don't know phoenix that would cost some extra money okay that's a whole
different platform altogether that i'm out of cost you
I'm out of coffee already. Can you believe that? I don't know. I'm so happy to be here today, man.
Hunter. What's up, man? I thought reception was bad in Dallas, Costa Rica's way worse.
Oh, you flew south for the winter, did you, you lucky dog. Nothing wrong with that, man. The Hunter is with us.
He is the man behind Hammer Talk. Okay. Hammer Talk is an amazing,
blacksmithing show that we do for our members and our supporters.
There's a link down below if you want to become a supporter.
It's a great way to support what we do.
It's a great way to get ad-free podcasts, right?
It's a great way to get early access to members-only podcasts.
And we also have a huge, huge archive of members-only podcasts that's now accessible
just as a playlist.
I mean, you can start at the bottom, work your way up, start from the top, work your way down.
We're doing members' podcasts very long.
time. Before it was even a, before it was even an option on Spreaker, I figured out how to do a limited
access podcast for our members. And yeah, I mean, tons of, tons of great stuff. Go to PBNFamily.com
and you can see all the membership content. You can sign up as a lifetime member over there if you
want, then you never pay anything. You get ad free podcast. The whole works. And yeah, it's been a good ride,
folks. It's been a good ride. No doubt about that. Garden Girl's still under snow in Dallas, right?
You guys still got snow. Didn't I see you say you get a snow day? Another snow day? Wrap your head around that one.
I'm done. I don't know about you. I'm done. I've had it. I've had it with winter. I'm good.
I've got my fill. It's the 28th of January or whatever. We can just go right to spring. What do you say? I am. You see all
This is a limited time offer.
This is all a limited time offer, okay?
It's coming off in the very near future because it's like my rain dance.
You know what I mean?
When I get to the point where I can't take it anymore, I just shave everything off and pray to God that the sun will come out and the snow will melt.
You know what I'm?
It's like a sacrifice to the Lord, the hair sacrifice.
The beard and hair sacrifice to bring on spring.
It's kind of like Groundhog Day.
Yeah, Phoenix can't wait.
I get to turn 40 next month.
Wonderful.
Anybody else completely like, you know, like, I don't know.
Just birthdays, like,
the Garden Girl says in Texas it was 82 on Christmas.
And then, and now she's got, you know, snow and such.
Yeah, my wife came up to me.
yesterday and she said, what do you want to do for your birthday, which is about a month away?
Do you know what I mean?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
What I have no idea?
I don't want to do anything.
The key to a good day is as little as possible.
Well, that's what I want to do.
Yeah, I mean, you know, it is what it is.
If you're a man, if you're a husband, you know what you want for your birthday, right?
You already, your wife already knows, too.
So it is what it is.
It's just another year.
You know, for me, except for maybe my vision, I can say like, I just feel better and better as I age.
Better and better as I age.
I did do for the prep or fit and health crowd out there.
I did do a strenuous sort of leg workout the other day.
and, dude, I paid for that for days.
I don't know what it was.
It was really weird.
I mean, it was like three days of intense pain.
And, yeah, I don't know.
It was a crazy one.
It was definitely a crazy one.
But this is what it is, you know.
So I want you guys to check out the scroll down below there.
The hydronomists, we're going to look at the hydronomus real quick before we shove off for the day.
just because it's absolutely amazing piece of technology.
And it's a reminder of kind of where emergency preparedness is headed.
But that scroll down below, if you see something you like, you can give them a call.
They'll give you more information.
Let me share my screen here.
This thing is hard to believe.
I need to get my hands around one of these things and really give it a good test.
so I can speak to it that way too.
Because you got to see it in action, you know.
I'm going to get out of here, actually, all together.
Garden, girl, we got to get the prepper fitting health crew all wound up again anyway.
Don't worry about it.
That is something we need to do.
So the hydronomist, man, the all-in-one disaster relief device.
I mean, this is, you know, this is the thing that you want to roll out in Tennessee right now.
You know what I mean?
Like post snowstorm Tennessee.
You got this.
You see how it packs up?
It packs up like, wow, just this little cart.
You know what I mean?
It's got great handles for pooling.
Four solar panel design.
It provides you with water and power.
Look at what you get the key features.
Portable waterproof solar generator and water filtration combo device.
Rapid deployment system, 135 plus gallons of clean water per day.
with a full battery 100 gallons per day desalination.
I mean, look, this crazy.
5.4 kilowatt lithium battery storage, 9.2 kilowatt discharge potential.
This guy really is sort of like a maximum disaster deployment into a disaster zone.
But it's also kind of one of those things like you've got a bug out location, you've got a backup power.
supply that you want to you know you want something above and beyond your your gas generator right you
want this is all the movement towards sort of like owning your utilities which i think is the future
i think the future really is people are like my kids likely just they'll have their own utilities
you know what i mean i don't think the utility companies are going to be happy about it but
so go to hydronomist dot com folks check it out i have to imagine that these guys are going to get really
rich. They're going to get really rich, I have to imagine, once the military realizes what they have,
what they're working with. But go over, you can use the ticker down below, or you can go over and
fill out. You see where you can request a quote here to talk to them about the things that you want.
Your hopes and dreams. They even have down here, you see they even have a Starlink mounting kit.
You can get internet on that thing. It really can be sort of the all in one. Rain collection, the whole thing.
it's changing folks it's all i can tell you the uh the game is certainly changing when it comes to
disaster relief and sort of what you can buy what's up bored to brap how you doing man
well folks um you know we're a packed house here at the cost of liberty and people are waking
up and dogs are doing backflips and wrestling so i'm going to call it a show for tonight

I'm pretty ready for the weather to break.
And, yeah, you know,
for those of you don't know,
on the, again, on the podcast side, not on this video side, not on the Instagram and YouTube and Rumble side, but on the podcast side, we're doing archive podcasts every day.
And they're awesome, right?
We did tactical Tuesday yesterday with D.D. from the gun metal armory, all about ambushes.
Is it appropriate?
I don't know.
But he did a great job with it.
I'll tell you that.
All right.
