Hello, welcome to the podcast. Present your vaccine passport. Enter your social credit score and be sure you have enough remaining carbon credits to enjoy today's show. PBN Family, your garden is the resistance. Oh, it's Friday, PBN Family. I gave Johnny Five the day off. The camera has the day off, which means I get the day off

from staring at the camera, pretending it's a person. The world of video is interesting, but the world of podcast and radio is It's still my favorite there's no doubt about it. You know you this is still my the podcast stats are just cratering Because I'm always on video But I don't know this is what I love I'll tell you that much This is something about it suggest my voice to your ears ears and as sweet and pure as that can be, you know? The continuity has returned.

The continuity has returned in, and it's matured. I guess that's the way to look at it. That's fundamentally the way to look at it. The continuity has returned in a mature fashion. I don't know how many of you out there listening were participators participated in the continuity all the way back. But what we've turned it into now is essentially a war room for disaster preparedness, the big stuff.

In other words, the continuity going forward, and for you members, I'll do a much more deeper sort of in-depth look at how we're going to play this game monthly. But the continuity will be a monthly meeting, a monthly crisis preparedness meeting to really put all our heads together as a community, as the PBN family, and work our way through the continuity. Work our way through the continuity of services, essential services and resources. Work our way through law and order. Work our way through law and order, work our way through leadership, you know, all those different aspects of what it is we want to do,

what it is we want to maintain, right? After a disaster or emergency. Sorry, there's a weird noise outside, sounded like a gunshot from far away, but I think it was just a vehicle. Took me off my game for a split second. For you members, I'm going to send out an email today. It's going to have a piece of the new continuity worksheet that I'm looking at right now. This worksheet is going to give, what it's going to do is it's going to give us all the ability to participate and it's going to give us all the ability to not just write down the ideas that seem like they're the best in the group

but the ideas that we like the best in the group. You know, in other words, the meeting of the continuity will be a membership-only meeting or a members-only meeting, but it will be a meeting of many people with many different ideas. The gathering of those ideas, the stirring them around and the dumping them out onto the table for all to see, it's a big part of what these meetings will be. But for you, when you address something like medical care, when you address something like, you know, leadership or, you know, leadership structure, resource allocation, defense and protection, when you address these

things, you might say to yourself, James has a really popular idea and everybody seems to like his idea but my idea is the one that I want to do particularly for your own area right like you know that you can take the continuity and use it as a game as a fun way to spend one One day a month with the PB and family and just plan out how to maintain society post nuclear war post, you know pandemic with massive casualties post whatever Each month will do a different scenario and we will

will build out the continuity of society, mankind, whatever, civility in your area. So you can use it as a fun game, it will be fun. You know, it'll be great to throw ideas back and forth. And I'm sure a lot of, at the end of the day, a lot of innovation, a lot of great ideas are going to rise to the surface. Or you can use the continuity sheet as a literal reference sheet to share with local leaders before, during, or after some kind of a crisis like this, you know, in other words, if we spend our time putting together a massive spreadsheet on the continuity and why am I doing the continuity and why am I even thinking it through

knowing that there's already emergency management services. Why would I even go this route? There's already emergency management services. Why would I even go this route? Years ago, I didn't have the moxie to do this. Unfortunately, and I apologize for this, I didn't even think that our community did. I laid that at the hands of emergency management. We've all had a chance to peek behind the veil of FEMA. We kind of know what we're getting with FEMA. State-level emergency management might be a little better. But we also know what happens in government meetings and putting together

government policy. You know, my favorite FEMA policy to date is, don't go to that house, there's a Trump sign. I like that one the best. They must have had their own. I wonder where on the continuity sheet we would come up with that one. Over the years I've you know I've told you preppers are responsible for massive amounts of emergency preparedness and and and continuity like infrastructure That's the reality. That's the prepping community the survivalist community has built out Particularly those pieces of infrastructure that helps civilians the most I

Mean truly it's what we've done the The plans and so forth, the details, right? The thought experiments, which is what this is. We've done that. You know, we've built that. We've built the backup power infrastructure. We've built all kinds of stuff. The food in the closets, everything. In time, I was able to jump from being a chef into whatever the hell it is I am now. I can wrap my head around a lot of this stuff a lot better now and guide a meeting like this. There'll be other people there too. I'm sure Jones will join us. The indomitable Dave Jones will join us, who does have a, you know, a lifetime

in crisis and emergency, but also a very real career in emergency management background. So you know, look, we took something that was once a fun game, really sort of like a fun cultish game, a monthly meeting in a way that I wanted it to be and We've now kind of grown it into this thing. That is or we're bringing it back to life. We're resuscitating it Into this very meaningful and fun monthly crisis planning you know for the continuity of essential services and law and order for your area in the face of not a tornado, not a hurricane, you know, like the real stuff, the big stuff, the prepper stuff.

Right. I think it will be equally as fun as it will be interesting and engaging and maybe even could even wind up being immensely helpful, you know to the world I Don't discount what preppers do man. I do I do not look at what preppers do and brush it off You know, I think that was that is one of the great mistakes since preppers have hit the scene You know since preppers have hit the scene one of the great mistakes that society has made is to look at us and go, that's some weird fringe group and you know they're all paranoid and afraid, nothing bad will ever happen. Nothing bad will ever happen. Where in history does it say that bad things happen? Nowhere. History is a succession of peace and

microwaves and Ozempic and that's how we will live our lives till the end of time. It's funny, right? It is what it is. It's a beautiful thing. Very proud to be a part of this prepping community. Slowly but surely I see people understanding to what value we've brought to the game. Not bad, you know? Not bad at all. I want to talk about these things because the last thing I want to do is talk about anything else. The last thing I want to talk about is Operation Save Elon.

Right? Or the lunatics on the other side who are like, since Donald Trump is president, he's doing things that I don't agree with. I'm going to blow up Tesla stuff and electric car stuff. I'm going to attack the electric car infrastructure that I really believed in, that I really used to pray to Gaia about. Yeah. I mean, that's the deal. You

know what I'm saying? That's where we're at. It's wild. European military powers plot replacing USA and NATO. Music to my ears. It's in red on the Drudge Report like it's a bad thing. Like Europe being able to protect itself, I mean, it's going to be a necessity. They can't go on the way they're going. They will have to. Now, here's the scariest part. Here's the scariest part. The scariest part is for Europe to bolster their military in a very big way in the midst

of a radical Islamic takeover of these nations. And then to understand that like what we did in Afghanistan is would be a microcosm to what could happen in Europe. In other words, we see masses of military investment and the military training and so on in these European nations. Yet they don't address the migration problem, the illegal immigration problem, the radical Islamic violence in the streets, and the prejudice and everything that is going on over there. And slowly but surely these radical Islamists rise to power and what's waiting for them buddy?

Giant military might, perfect for reestablishing the caliphate across Europe, all wrapped up in a bow. I really do worry about that. I mean, that's several steps ahead, I really do worry about that. I mean that's several steps ahead. But I do worry about that. The world losing their mind over people getting sent back to their countries for coming into this country illegally. I think that's fun. PBN Family, I don't want to go on and on today. I really do appreciate you guys.

We did this for our members at first as a membership perk and as 2025 has gone on, I keep hearing from people they don't want billing. They don't want billing, they don't want it. They'd rather buy once, cry once, than have a $60 bill every year for the rest of their life. They'd rather buy once, cry once, than have a $60 bill every year for the rest of their life. And look, to you members out there listening, I see how much money you've spent with us. God bless you. You know, you guys have really kept the lights on here through all adversity.

So, you know, wrap your head around that. Think that over. Okay? I love it here, guys. I just want you to know that I'm like sitting in my little humble little dining room studio thing Living this little humble life and it is too, you know, it's it I mean one day I'll tell you all about it, but It is what it's just what it is Well to some degree, you know to some degree to some degree It is when I talk about the monetary and, you know, all the weird modern-day metrics, right, the square footages and the vehicles and the... they talk about those

things, it's very much about the bank statements, it's very much a modest life. But you guys have helped me and I hope I have helped you open eyes to what really makes a man rich. And I don't know, there are few people that I know who are as rich as I am in the context of life. In the real context, in the real metrics of life. You know, like time afforded, time appreciated, time in the flames of passion, and I mean that from a, you know, passion from the standpoint of the things that really make you feel alive that you really enjoy. I get to do that every day with you guys. Yeah, it's been a good ride, man. It's been a good ride. And we've got a lot of ground left to cover, PBN Family, all right? Talk to you soon, man.
