You're listening to PBN. Your path back to stability. What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery. Forbid it, almighty God. I know not what course others may take. As for me, give me liberty or give me death. Thank you. For me, it was fear that brought me here. Fiction novels and Hollywood that spawned a million and one doomsday scenarios, each another step to the threshold of prepping. At the time, I had no idea what it was. I'm

not former military, law enforcement, government, emergency management, non-government contractor. I was a chef. My SHTF warlord resume was pitiful. Rapping on the door to Prepper City, I was greeted and brought forth into the outer rim. My first child Carter showed me in his barely open eyes the dads need to be dads in every sense of the word so I took a pickaxe and chipped my way deep into this community I took every opening and every opportunity

not for the glory of showing up on some television show and being mocked by society, but to survive. To survive things like 2020. And whatever the lizards might have planned next. Prepping brought me back again to freedom. It showed me freedom through capability. Freedom through discipline. freedom through family, freedom through strength, freedom through progeny, freedom through love, freedom through truth, through food, through competence, and of course, freedom through God.

In 2018, I realized that prepping is not just about a small group of people across the land that were readying for the worst-case scenario. It became clear that prepping was the way. it became clear that prepping was the way. That this culmination of skills both forgotten and cutting edge were the path back to stability. I saw and still see to this day the salvation of liberty in preppers. Will not be a foothold or a footnote

in history or a mere television show. I believe the preppers will be the reason we succeed. Our message and our methods are exploding all over the world. Why? Why?

Why? It's pretty simple when you think about it. It's because self-reliance is a prerequisite, maybe the prerequisite of a free society. Welcome into the I Am Liberty show, everyone. It's very rare that I write a monologue. But I wrote that monologue this morning. Because I want to talk about freedom. It seems that everything that we have going on in our crazy world right now comes down to that one question. in our crazy world right now comes down to that one question.

Everything in the political world, everything in the social and cultural sphere comes down to that one question. Is this about freedom or is this about tyranny? It's clear that the average person, whether they vote Democrat or Republican, is in the crosshairs of those much more rich and more powerful than them. It's very clear now. It's very clear that they have a plan for us all. And the best thing that can happen for those lizards up on high is for us to be fighting each other. How much weaker and easier we

are to deal with when we're angry with each other, when we're yelling at each other over over pronouns. Right? The battle is freedom versus everything else. Every decision we have to make, all these grandiose and great decisions that are coming, all these dark and terrible decisions that are coming. This is what we weigh them on. I was thinking about Joe and Don the other day, Don and Joe. I don't know how to phrase, I didn't think of a clever way to phrase this, so I'm just going to let it rip. The left is afraid of the things that Donald Trump says, and the right is afraid of the things that Joe Biden does. And that's the election, right? That's the election. You have one side that doesn't want the mean guy to bully people at the questionnaires, right? At his speeches. He doesn't want them

to make fun of... One side of the nation doesn't want the mean guy with the mean mouth to come back because they don't like the things that he says. And the other side of the nation doesn't want... Well, I actually don't believe that it's. I don't believe that it was ever 50-50 split. You know, I don't buy that. The only way I buy that is if that many people hated Donald Trump. You know what I mean? But I don't buy that we're going to see that same 50-50 split this go-round. Then again, we may. I don't know. I threw a very interesting debate up between Ben Shapiro on the Lex Friedman podcast, between Ben

Shapiro and a guy formerly known as Destiny, or only known as, I don't know who that guy is, Formally known as Destiny or only known as, I don't know who that guy is really. But apparently Ben Shapiro, leading debater on the right conservative side. And Destiny with the unkempt hair and t-shirt. The best the left could muster, I guess. I mean, you don't send a lackey in against Ben Shapiro, right? And to be honest with you, they brought up some really good points. I would listen to it if I were you. I mean, you don't send a lackey in against Ben Shapiro, right? And to be honest with you, they brought up some really good points. I would listen to it if I were you.

It's long. It's like two and a half hours. But hearing them two break down the points and the things that are happening today, I think those things help you understand where people's heads are. They're invaluable if you can get into that kind of stuff. But every decision going forward, you know, like this is how you govern your life. Things are complicated. But this doesn't have to be complicated.

You see a bill come across in your local area. You see the government, oh, we can't, the government's going to shut down if we don't spend more money. It's just freedom and everything else. The decision that you're making, the decision that I'm making, the decision that she's making, the decision that he's making, is it going to make us more free or is it going to shackle us? Let's go with that. We know inherently some things, right?

Like transgenderism through surgery is a popular topic. Hormones, right? Hormone therapies. I think maybe there's a chance that you hit the jackpot if you're someone who wants that kind of a thing. And you do the surgery that's impossible to undo. And you take the hormones and you go that route. I mean, look, I'd be lying to you if I told you I didn't know a single person who transitioned successfully. I do. I know someone pretty close.

Not the person, but the person that they're with. And, you know, I don't want to put them on blast on the air. But I'll tell you one thing. They do a job that is very valiant. So you can't say that these things are 0%, right? But at the same time, when you're handing out these irreplaceable, I can't think of the word. When we start handing out these surgeries that cannot be undone to anybody who raises their hand, you have to look at it and say, there are exceptions.

But when you go through a surgery that you can't fix, you can't go back from, and you make these life decisions that you can never return from, decisions that you can never return from. Even if at the moment someone thinks they want it, the way you have to frame that in your head is, is this something that's going to make me free? Is this really going to set me free? Or is this going to imprison me? Irreversible. Don't ask me why it was so hard to get to that word.

It's irreversible. Don't ask me why it was so hard to get to that word. And that's the frame. That's the frame for everything, you know? Thomas Jefferson said, take not from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. I was watching. I like watching. I like watching concepts cross cultures.

And I was watching a short on Instagram earlier today. And it was a culmination of all the taxes and the repercussions for not paying your taxes. And it was done, instead of being done by a conservative rich white guy on am radio it was done by a young black kid uh in a do-rag um talking to himself sort of cinematically his him sitting down on his bed with a laptop in his lap being the government and then him standing in the other part of his room being him you know and coming to this radical realization that we all come to that is we get a check for our labor right that has been taxed by the government. And then everything we pay for gets taxed. And if we buy things like cars and homes, then every year we get a tax bill for them, right? And, you know,

I like to watch those sort of concepts cross cultures because that's how I know ideas are taking hold. Take not from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. How do we get away from that? How do we get away from criminal tax? We had a revolution over criminal tax. You know? What would the colonists have done? What would the colonists have done if they woke up and realized they counted all of it up?

That, you know, 50% of their take went to the government. I mean, they taxed what? Stamps. They taxed the stamps and they called up George Washington. George! These sons of bitches. These sons of bitches are taxing the stamps. I hear they want to do the tea next.

I hear they want to do the coffee. Right? And it was on. It was on. It's wild when you think about it. I don't want to get into limits. See, limits are a thing that needs discussing, but it's too late in the day

to discuss it safely. Limits may be one of the only topics that I... may be one of the only things that I'm nervous about talking about here on PBN. And what do I mean by limits? I mean, you know, what's the limit? What's the limit on taxing a human? And, you know, the reason it's so scary is because what happens

when the government crosses that limit? The reason it's so scary is because what happens when the government crosses that limit. What's the limit in how many Americans die at the hands of people who have crossed the border illegally? What's the limit? I mean, these things are happening a lot. What's the limit? What's the limit of fentanyl deaths before someone has to pay for it? Some doctor. Some coalition of doctors. Some someone has to pay for it. Some doctor, some coalition of doctors,

some entity in China that makes it, some drug cartel in the South that smuggles it. Well, I mean, there are limits, right? If you don't impose limits, if you don't impose anything, then we just wind up with exactly the society we deserve, which is what we have right now, right? It's a limitless society. It's a limitless society. The good can be limitless, the fun can be limitless, and the hell can be limitless as well. PBM family, I want to... I got a couple things to get into today. There's something happening in New York City with a guy named Sergeant Eric Duren. You're just not going to even believe.

I want to talk about birth rates as a little spark of hope too. And there are things happening next month that we need to talk about as well. Let's do ad break. We'll come back and get in the show. We got Silver Streak with us in chat. We got Garden Girl.

We got JB. Man, got some heavy hitters. Be right back Are you prepared to be the family doctor In a disaster or emergency? This is the Intrepid Commander And I'm holding The Prepper's Medical Handbook

Yoink it right from that doofus that does PBN Daily News. I'll just steal it, right? He won't say anything. He's a nice guy.

He's a nice guy. He won't say a word. What is up, PBN family? Good to be with you. Good to be with you. We have one Sergeant Eric Duren, New York City police officer. Probably braver than 90% of the people. Hee, hee, hee, hee, hee.

I don't need it. I don't need you, Daily Beast Beast God oh my internet's so bad I grabbed a link to this thing right I thought I would maybe read the article to you Tell you about what happened But the Daily Beast won't let you read shit without paying for it Your model doesn't work Can I tell you something

Your model Your business model. Look, I've been in business a while now. You know, I'm eight years in. Entrepreneurship, exclusive income through entrepreneurship, running businesses. Take my word for it. If you run an organization where people go to your website to read the news, and when they go to your website to read the news, and when they go to your website to read the news,

the first thing you say to them is, you need to pay to read this news. It's a broken business model. Imagine what PBM would be if every time you showed up to listen to a podcast, I said, aha, you need to become a member first before you hear any of our podcasts. Who the hell would listen? Why would you listen? You don't know what this is all about.

Terrible business model internet news providers, you're already taking a hit. Please. Let's come up with something better. Ad free. I don't know. I'm not here to reinvent the wheel. But man, shooting yourself in the foot. I'll never go back to your website. I'm not here to reinvent the wheel, but man, shooting yourself in the foot. I'll never go back to your website. I'm never going to say, the moment I get hit with a

first paragraph in and then they hit you with a sign up today for this and then you can read the rest of the article. The moment I get hit with that, it's over. I'm never coming back. The moment I get hit with that, it's over I'm never coming back I'm never coming back The only one I might pay for But I probably won't Is Epic Times But if I really wanted to pay for it

I'd pay for it already Right? It's not, you know Giving out news and stuff is Ah, whatever. Who cares? Nobody's listening. Nobody at the Daily Beast is listening.

They don't care. They'll either sink or swim or whatever. I don't know. Here's the story. Here's my version of the story, okay? There's a NYPD sergeant who is facing a manslaughter charge, okay? His name is Sergeant Eric Duren. He's braver than 90% of the people probably on the planet, at least in the country. He's an undercover, you know, an undercover cop in New York I mean do you know what kind of balls that takes

You have any idea Well Suspect Trying to get away On a moped or a motorcycle Or something like that Right I don't know if you know what the cops do anymore

But the cops are supposed to arrest the bad guys That's what they're supposed to do Right Why do they arrest the bad guys To meet a quota That's what the cynical population would say nowadays They gotta meet their quota That's why they

I think the police arrest the bad guys So that the bad guys don't find their way into your house Right Oh my god did you see the Chicago mayor? You won't even believe this. Real quick, real quick departure. I'm pretty sure it was the Chicago mayor. It's some leadership in Chicago.

They're encouraging citizens. Encouraging now. Right now they're encouraging, but trust me, the encouragement won't be forever. Wealthy Illinois town considers sign-up list for residents with big homes willing to house illegal immigrants. You know what this is, right? I mean, like, this has happened before in history. This happened in China. This is a thing. This is exactly the kind of communist thing that happens.

Hey, look, I need your input on something. We are going to talk about this. Well, let's make it a long story short. It's not a tremendous story. It's just a sad story. Eric Duren, a suspect is getting away. Bad guy, right? Bad guy.

Stop. Stop. Don't run. Turn around. Come back here. You're under arrest. He's on some kind of two-wheel moving vehicle. Eric being who Eric is, right? I don't know who Eric is, but in a way I know who Eric is because the moment you say, I'm going to go undercover with a bunch of people who are going to kill me, you're a tier above. All right. So a guy like that sees a cooler. Right. There's a cooler over here. There's a bad guy running away over there.

He's going to go do bad shit because he's a bad guy. That's what they do. I have to stop him. That's my job. I'm a cop. If I don't stop him, nobody's going to stop. He throws a cooler at the dude. Right. To knock him off the bike so he can't get away. And the guy dies. The guy gets hit with the cooler and dies. And of course, the lunatics in New York want him hung. You know what I mean kill him doesn't matter kill him I don't care what what the other guy did he didn't deserve to die like that

he's been charged with manslaughter man who threw cooler than a deadly crash charge of manslaughter boom yahoo news I just closed out of the window Man who threw cooler than a deadly crash charge and manslaughter boom. Yahoo News. I just closed out of the window. If somebody doesn't want me to read this to you, it's what's going on. I wanted to see who the feller was that got manslaughtered. Eric Dupree, 30, was fleeing New York City police officers on a motorcycle

when Duran hurled a plastic picnic cooler at his head from close range, causing the violent crash. The sergeant was standing on the sidewalk as part of a buy-and-bust operation carried out by the Bronx Narcotics Unit. And Duran was indicted by the New York Attorney General Letitia James. I'm sure Letitia loves the children and loves her city and just really wants peace. He wasn't fleeing. He wasn't fleeing. He was just on a motorcycle talking to me on the video chat, and he passed by that place when all of a sudden call cut out,

she said in Spanish. Gretchen Soto, Dupree's mom, was on the phone with him, I guess. They left three fatherless babies, Soto said. I'm going to get justice. Duran has been recognized by the department dozens of times for what it deems excellent and meritorious police service, according to a police personal database. There's some complaints about the guy

So who is Eric Dupree 30? They never tell you You know what I mean? They never tell you about the guy Who is Eric Dupree? Let's see real quick Because he was an outstanding father of three Who was very much in love with his wife.

And he was very... And he was very well-known in the society. Tell me who he was. I know he was killed. I'm not making light of the fact that the guy was killed You gotta understand It's just When you see enough of these stories go by

And you know Enough of these things occur You get to the point where you kinda get it Do you know what I mean? You kinda get it You read enough articles Like New York Intelligencer What are they gonna to tell me?

Are they going to tell me something? Eric Dupree died after police sergeant struck him with a cooler causing a fall off his motorbike. Eric Duran, the 35-year-old sergeant, has been suspended. Okay, we know. Who was Eric Dupree? Who was the guy? He was dealing drugs. it was dealing drugs.

On Wednesday evening, 192nd and Aqueduct Streets in the Bronx, undercover narcotics officers were conducting a sting to catch potential drug dealers. Why do you want to catch drug dealers? Why? Why do you want to do that? There's a fentanyl nightmare happening all over the country. But don't worry about that. The New York Times reports that Dupree was observed selling drugs to one of the disguised cops, prompting the officers to attempt an arrest. Police told the Times that an unidentified man moved a motorbike over to Dupree,

who then hopped on and sped away from the officers. Then he took a U-turn and was riding on the sidewalk. The cop then took my cooler, which was filled with soda cans and water bottles, and hit him. Emergency services called to the scene, but Dupree was later pronounced dead. Dupree was a father of three children, nine, five, and three, out selling drugs. And he shared the two youngest with his wife, or Lianis Velez. Velez told the Gotham Miss she had to tell her kids about their father's death.

I'm just thinking right now how I'm going to tell my kids that their father's not here no more when they ask me why, because an officer police killed my husband. Is that why, though? I mean, sure, that's the direct reason he's gone. But, uh... I wonder if she'll add the fact that their daddy was also selling drugs on the streets of New York City.

I don't know, man. What do you want these men to do? What do you want from the police? People don't even know what they want from the police. You know what I mean? Do you want the... What do you want? Here's my thing.

This is what I have to say to New York. Change the laws in your city to what you really want, and then allow us to render no federal aid to your city anymore, except for in disaster, an emergency like that. Do you know what I'm saying? It doesn't make it... If these big cities don't care that they're selling drugs and killing people with drugs and ruining lives with drugs,

I know that's a very popular thing nowadays. Smoke weed, man. Do a little acid here and now and go see the angels up there. Go have a nice trip session and go see God. Hey, whatever, man. You know what I mean? But if it's against the law, then it's against the law.

These guys have a job. And they have to against the law, then it's against the law. These guys have a job. And they have to uphold the law. And the public doesn't care. That's the crazy part. The public doesn't care about the drug laws. I guess until people start getting shot over drugs. And then, you know, stray bullets hit little girls. But in terms of this kind of stuff.

They don't really care. It doesn't seem like they care. Because every time a cop gets involved. In something like this. Having to do with theft. Or having to do with drugs. They're the bad guy. You know what I mean.

They got a job to do. Did you imagine. I don't know what you do for a living, but imagine if one of the fundamental things you had to do on a day-to-day basis, you know, could literally get you fired. One of the things that you had to do, like in your job description, like, hey, if you don't stop the criminals you're going to get in trouble and you might get fired and remember there's an added layer

to this guy's job which is he's going to go do undercover work so I say change the laws you want a big liberal city full of idiots fine change the law all the drugs are legal new york city all drugs are legal you want to eat fentanyl until it comes out of your eye sockets and then roll over dead in the gutter somewhere fine that's fine the cops ain't worried about it.

They'll focus on murder and rape, violent crime, right? That's the word now, violent crime. But to take these poor guys, man, and I know, listen, sucks. Sucks for those kids. It sucks for that dude who got hit in the head with a cooler and is dead too. It's a suck way to go. But at the same time, what can you ask of these young men and women who put the police uniform every day on and go out there to do a thing,

and when they do the thing or make an attempt at doing the thing, you get 13 articles written about you from some of the most popular publications in the world crafting a story in a way that makes you look like a monster. You know? Think about it. Why did he throw the cooler, too, by the way? Why did he throw the cooler?

Why did the guy throw the cooler too, by the way? Why did he throw the cooler? Why did the guy throw the cooler? Because you know you can't pull your gun out and use it. Well, actually, it probably was a good move to not pull the gun out and use it. Crowded New York. But, all right, anyway, I didn't mean to spend as much time on this. It's just blowing me away, you know, to send somebody out there to do a job that's impossible to do already. You know, if you're honest with yourself, it's the way the world is today. It's impossible.

You know what I mean? It's impossible. I mean, how... You want some more bad news? Average Americans are paying for illegal migrants to come here, not just after they land. As Republicans work to secure the border, they're not just up against the inept Biden administration. As Todd Bensman pointed out in these pages, the recently released UN Interagency Coordination Platform, the UN IACP for refugees and migrants from Venezuela,

lays out, this is the UN now, lays out a plan to spend $1.6 billion in 17 Latin American countries to help migrants reach. This is not to get these countries back on their feet. 1.6 billion in 17 Latin American countries to help migrants reach the U.S.-Mexico border. the UN bureaucracy's ultimate goal, namely to support access to asylum procedures, migratory regularization activities, and the socioeconomic integration. The writer goes on to say, in plain English, no southern U.S. border and an unimpeded flood of migrants into the United States. And when Trump said we need to get out of the UN, everybody went nuts.

This guy's crazy. I can't believe it. You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to make a fake head. I'm going to make a fake bloody head of Donald Trump, and I want you to take my picture of me holding the bloody head with a knife, you know, like I cut his head off. It'll be hard. The United States is the biggest, by far, UN backer, funding 22% of its regular budget in 2023. Now, if we're giving 22% of $1.6 billion, you could say, hey, I bet we could solve a hell of a lot of problems right here in these United States with some of that money. Encamped immigrants begin overtaking major Boston airport. We need D.C. to act. Chicago Democrat arrested for trying to impede migrants from closed school.

But my favorite of all, man, my favorite of all is the lists. The lists being formed for those people with too much house. You know? Those people

with too much house. Now they can take on put your name on the list we'll send you a few folks don't you worry about it we'll send you a few a few new friends from south of the border that can come live in that guest bedroom you have Van Jones is in the news

oh man I like Van Jones he's always good for a laugh what's he talking about Van Jones argued in an appearance Tuesday that the jobs available to the black community are crappy quote unquote facts and feelings are very different Van Jones said in response to a recent report

that consumer sentiment is at its highest levels in 2021 people keep telling me you've got real great employment numbers in the black community and aren't you happy? I'm like, yeah, but they're crappy jobs. President Biden has stepped up his efforts to win over black voters as the poll for November shows that 57% of black voters disapprove of Biden's handling of the economy. of black voters disapprove of Biden's handling of the economy. Also, 56% of black voters think Biden sucks at inflation reduction. So Van Jones came out and spoke a little truth for a change.

That's good. He said, yeah, we got the job numbers are up, but maybe we don't all want to work for the government. I remember when that guy hit the scene under Obama. It was like, oh boy. Oh boy. Let's get back to the show, shall we? I'm sorry, we had a little fun. Can we have a little fun on a Wednesday night?

It's 9.30. I don't even know if I'm going to make 10 o'clock. Be tired. There's a lot going to make 10 o'clock. Be tired. There's a lot going on in the world right now. We have a children's book ready to hit the shelf. I haven't talked about it much. I should have talked about it more. It's amazing.

It's one of those weird things, you know. What did Michael Savage always say? If I'm not, if I'm only for myself, no, if I'm not for myself, who will be? If I'm only for myself, who am I? No. Yes, that's right. I think that's an old Jewish proverb or something.

If I'm not for myself, who will be? Let's see who said it. Hillel the Elder. Yeah, see? Hillel the Elder. If I'm not for myself, who will be? But if I'm only for myself, what am I? And if not now, when?

Widely recognized as one of the wisest people who ever lived. The quote is a rhetorical question posed to describe a man's inadequacy in this world when he acts only as an individual. Yeah. It's amazing. You know, there's a reason pretty easy, right? Pretty easy to understand the reason

why we wrote the book. That's the that's the we that is me. But there is a we in this project called the world of Ready. And the world of Ready is me, a friend, and now a new digital illustrator. And it all comes from our old intro. Our old intro hit the nail on the head so much that I just wanted to, if I'm going to put my effort into something, I thought that'd be a good way to do it. We have to hit the reset button and create a true cultural preparedness,

starting at a young age and filtering all the way up. And that's exactly what the world of Ready is all about. Right? Creating a cultural preparedness starting at a very young age. Why not? Why can't basic preparedness concepts be folded into great stories for children? I mean, what's more scarier than those events in a child's life? I'm sure you have memories.

I'm sure all of you out there listening have some kind of memory about fire or rain or floods or tornadoes. For me, it was always tornadoes. There's nothing more terrifying than tornadoes.

Or, you know, hurricanes Or whatever it is, wildfires Kids have to face this stuff And they don't fully understand it You know, I remember We had some tornadoes here in Richmond Years ago now Probably five or so years ago

And, you know, we utilize A central pantry as our refuge, you know, as our shelter in place location in an event like that. And there's some stuff we got to do first, you know, in order for us to properly shelter in place in that location, there's some steps that have to be taken and in preparation. And we're taking those steps in preparation. And then, you know, being who I am, I said, all right, let's get in and let's make sure it's what we want. Make sure we got everything in here that we need. Let's do kind of a dry run before the storm gets going.

And I remember the alarms going off and us going back in, piling dogs in, you know, the whole thing. And looking at my kids and wondering, you know, like, what's going through these guys' head right now? And they know, you know what I mean? They know what a tornado is and they know what could happen and all that kind of stuff. But you know what they didn't know is the ins and outs of what we were doing and why. I mean, maybe they did. Maybe they did in that sense. What they didn't know is how they could be effective.

I think that's really what we're looking to achieve with the world of Ready. That's really what we're looking to achieve with the world of Ready, right? Because that's incredibly empowering and incredibly steadying for a child. When there's some sort of a situation unfolding and they're not just being drug along, right? They know what to do. They have a role. They can affect the situation. I mean, that's the best outcome, right, for a kid?

I'd say about a month. About a month, you'll meet Uda. In about a month, all you listeners out there, at least those of you with children, I'm sure, will have your chance to meet Uda and step foot onto the world already. I mean, if you have kids, it's a no-brainer. It's an absolute no-brainer. You're going to want every one that we make, and we're going to make several. I'm very proud of it. I think you're going to love it. I think you're going to love it. Let's carry on with some more stuff.

Food security, how to build your food security network will be in one week from today at 9 p.m. For those of you who are members, you will receive in the element room a link to the event. An email to all members will go out. For those of you who have signed up, you will also get a link to that same course. And, yeah, listen, we can take starvation off the table for 2024. You know what I mean?

It's not nearly as hard to do as you might think. My rock wool came in today as we make the jump into hydroponics once again. Now the modification of the room I'm in to fit this hydroponic system in here still has to happen. But we're going to start sprouting those seeds now. I'm not sure what. I've got a, let's talk about it. Let's talk seeds for a minute, PBN family, if you don't mind. I had this great vendor,

wonderful vendor. Price is too cheap, too low. I don't think it could last, but I might be wrong. low. I don't think it could last, but I might be wrong. Red Fox Organics, a veteran-owned business, 35 seed varieties, over 15,000 seeds in this little manila bag. I mean, it's really cool. Tight, tight little product, if I don't say so myself. 100% heirloom seeds, non-GMO, right? Arugula, artichoke, asparagus. I will give asparagus another go. I've got a better location for them this year. Green beans, beets, broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, celery, yada, yada, yada, lettuce, melon, red onion, rutabaga spinach, bloomsdale, long-standing spinach, cherry tomatoes, turnip, watermelon, peas, okra, all kinds of stuff, man. blue curled scotch kale

will undoubtedly be headed to the hydroponics rock world what else will we do JB in chat put up free heirloom seeds dot org donation based seed company check them out the website

sucks but 30 bucks gets you a lot. Well, maybe we'll help them guys out. Yeah, I'd like to do lettuce. Wasn't there lettuce? Where's the lettuce? Bronze mignonette lettuce or bib lettuce would be kind of cool. I'd like to do a lettuce. I'd like to do a kale.

I've never hydroponicked celery before. That sounds kind of cool. And herbs. There's no herbs in here, but I've got plenty of seeds. That's what we'll be doing. A little hydroponic garden indoors. Indoors, grow lights, you know, the whole nine. Not, you know, it's not, it's twofold, right? Like,

it's convenience. It's convenience as well. It's a money saver. You know how much hydroponic herbs can save you money? When I go to the supermarket and buy like a little, I get like a double sprig of rosemary. Because for some reason i think it's the wetness in my soil i have a really tough time keeping rosemary alive um but i get like two sprigs of rosemary for two bucks you know or two and a half bucks whatever it is it's really weird right this whole this whole red fox organics bag was $25. You know what I mean? I'll be growing them seeds all year, saving them for next year.

You know how it goes. February routine, PBN family. Everybody's invited. I started making it today. It will be called the Commander's Challenge like it always is. Day A, Day B cycle. We're going to go the same day A, Day B. I really like that.

That's really nice. I've enjoyed that a lot over the month of January. The only other, well, we don't need to talk about that right now. But February routine will be heavy. It will be heavy on praise and prayer and gratitude and those kinds of things. Okay? Meditation. These are the things that your commander needs to get through February. See, February sucks for me.

Not for any particular reason. You know, just one of those things. The end of the winter. I miss fishing. I miss suffering under the Virginia humidity. I miss running. I miss working out outside. Because, look, you know, what I've learned this year is,

this is what I learned this year. My slow conquering of the cold has taught me that you can work out in the cold. You know what I mean? It's something you can do. You can go out there first thing in the morning and you can work out and you'll warm up and then you'll start to sweat. And it's just not what I like. I like it when it's about 95 degrees out, man. Or at least 80 degrees where I can really, you know, I want to suffer out in the heat. The opposite of that is working out in the cold. You know, you work. And you get winded. And your muscles are burning. And then you know. There's still like.

This cold. Frigid feeling. From the sweat on your back. And the cold up against your shirt. I don't know. It's not the same. JB they were. Red Fox Organics was at Prepper Camp.

It was a. That cute little young couple. there in a single booth. They were awesome. Yeah, you probably did see them. Remember, it was a young guy with black hair, and I want to say his lady might have been a shorter brunette or something like that. But anyway, cool little company, man.

We're going to try them out this year, see what it's all about. February routine, stay tuned. I know these things are hard, and I know these things are a pain in the ass. Like you got enough to do already. Your routine will define your year. You know what I mean? It really will. It's almost too much truth for the average person to handle.

It's like you follow the routines and you will see results. You don't. Then you might not. You know depending on what your own routine is. It's life here at PBN now, guys. Every year I try to bring you something new. Every year I try to bring you a means of improving. Because Ben Franklin said it best,

if everyone's thinking alike, then no one is thinking. Tell that to the left. If everyone is thinking alike, then no one is thinking. Tell that to the average, you know, over-the-edge MAGA voter. I still stand by my first instinct with the election this year was take Biden and Trump off the whole thing. Just wave them both. Wave Trump, wave Biden, start over. We're going to do our 2024 election, but you're not going to be able to vote for Donald Trump,

and you're not going to be able to vote for Joe Biden. Why? do our 2024 election, but you're not going to be able to vote for Donald Trump and you're not going to be able to vote for Joe Biden. Why? Because this is the United States of America in 2024 and there's plenty of people worth having as a president that don't come with the baggage of either of them. I know there's people out there who hate me for that, right? They get mad.

I don't know. It's what it is. I think we could avoid a lot. I think we could avoid a lot. I think we could avoid a lot of arguments that way. You know what I mean? I think we could still put a great person in office by doing that. I don't know. It's too much.

It's too much for the average politician to figure out. much, too much for the average politician to figure out. They can write a 5,000 page bill that will line their pockets in the pockets of their donors and get everything that they could ever want passed in Congress. But if you were to go to them and say, hey, let's figure out how we can take Donald Trump and Joe Biden out of the picture for president. Oh, that's not possible. I don't know. We can't figure that out. I have a personal request for Antifa and the Free Palestinian Movement and some of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Please stop covering your faces with masks. Not just COVID masks, but masks at large. It's impossible to have fought in the Middle East and then to take people seriously in your own country when they hide behind masks, right? Like, if you don't even believe enough in your cause to risk your identity, what are you doing? The mask thing drives me bonkers.

I see the Palestinian people with their masks covered. Not the Palestinian people. The people in the United States. You know, the ones blocking roads and so forth. And they're completely covered up. The whole head and face, everything covered up. Feminists. Pink hair, all covered up.

And I'm thinking to myself, man, if it's important enough to rattle the fences of the White House, probably important enough to just take your mask off and say, Oh, here I am, James Walton. This is what I believe. You can see my face, therefore I exist. Rather than, let me just cover this mouth. Let me cover my face and make sure nobody knows who I am.

I think that's fundamentally a professor process, like these professors that sex up all the young students. They also go out in the evenings and fight police. Superheroes. Woke superhero. PBN family, listen. You watch the motivations of people. You watch what's happening in this country.

You read the news. You see what's going on. You have to understand that the battle is freedom and everything else. That's it. That's all there is to it. That's where we've come now. We've come to that. It's freedom, and then it's everything else. And everything else could have some freedom

mixed into it. It could be like a vinaigrette, you know what I mean, where you have a certain amount of freedom tied in with a certain amount of oil and a certain amount of corruption and a certain amount. But fundamentally, you have to be able to look down the road a few chess moves and say to yourself, is this going to make me more free or not? Is life under Joe Biden going to make me more free or not? Now, I know the pro-abortion crowd is going to think that Donald Trump is going to take your freedom away, your freedom to choose away. I should tell you, I don't know if you guys listen to Glenn Beck, but

there's an organization called Preborn. I don't know if you've ever heard of Preborn. I think I might donate some money to Preborn this year In my wife's name And give it to her as a little Feb 14th Little gift For those of you who are unaware, Preborn Gives a mother who's considering abortion A chance to see the baby in ultrasound

And listen to the baby's heartbeat. And what they say, they say that it's a 50% better chance that the mom decides to be mom. That's powerful. That makes a difference, you know. I think it's a great gift idea. You know, to be charitable with gifts It's a nice thing There was a time when we were

Much more concerned about pit bulls And shelters than we are now And it's just It really is a problem of The to-do list The day-to-day to-do list There's still plenty of suffering animals But I do recall a Christmas

Where I put a Picture of a little pit bull. I can't even remember the name. On the Christmas tree, you know what I mean? And that was one of my wife's gifts that year, giving money to that cause. I don't know your spouse. They might just want you to buy them stuff, take them out to eat.

You could do that too if you want, but I think that's a cool and unique way to celebrate a holiday that is built around love, right? Do you guys do the Valentine's for everybody thing? I notice that Valentine's has become like a very different holiday than it was when I was younger. Like dads get their

daughter's Valentine's stuff now. Did that always happen? I am so strict with Valentine's. You know what I mean? Nobody gets shit from me except my wife. I have a Valentine. Do you know what I mean? Nobody gets shit from me except my wife. I have a valentine. Do you know what I mean?

Like, that's the way it was when I was growing up. I had a valentine. Like, you have a valentine. A valentine. There's none of this, like, niece and nephew, I got him a little chocolate. What the? What is that? I don't know that's me though

i'm like that uh i don't know and i don't know i always wonder where like the where that sort of chivalrous romanticism comes from because my dad mom well they were kind of like that but they weren't really like that. I think it's all from movies. I was one of those kids that was like reared on movies. Sit in front of the TV, put the VHS tape in. You know, the parents today, they get psychotic over social media. They get psychotic over video games.

Right? Like the kids. over video games, right? Like the kids. I spend all day on these damn... What did you spend all day doing? There were days when I spent all day watching movies. I know. I remember. I remember, like, oh, watch a movie.

Watch another movie. Watch some cartoons in the morning, movies in the afternoon. I was raised in the television. Probably where all my creativity and stuff comes. There's probably one big theft operation from things I've seen and imprinted into memory, and I just pluck out parts of them and become quote-unquote creative. But maybe it was movies like that, you know i mean that uh because i did always love romance

for sure i was never like a young kid that was that was like i only want to watch predator i did i remember cry baby so much cry baby like crazy i mean I know it was comedic But you know The songs and the singing Whatever Always a big fan Always a big fan My Valentine She's upstairs

Dead Dead She ran a marathon Not a literal marathon But she ran a A life marathon Over these last few days. She came in the door at 7 o'clock that night after some kind of sport and was, you know, you could just see.

You could just see it. After work, after that, you know what I mean? Dead. Go up to sleep, baby. Just go up to bed. Eat a little something. Go to bed. That, you know, I don't know. It's a weird thing. Anyhow, the battle is freedom. That's the message tonight. Everything else be damned. If you're stuck on something, you're stumped Over a cultural issue

A political issue All I want you to do is just think about it that way It's going to make me more free or less You know what I mean And figure it all out Because we're fast approaching A time where You know

It's all slipping through our fingers PBN family, and we just have to be intentional about it. All right? I'll talk to you guys soon, okay? See you. Thank you for listening to the Prepper Broadcasting Network, where we promote self-reliance and independence.

Tune in tomorrow for another great show you
