You're listening to P.B.N. You will pay us back the stability here. Nightly news and shipwreck Alfredo welcome back to PBN folks. No surviving America yesterday. I woke up to when I was planning this show and my son woke up pretty early and was just all over the place. So what is up Hunter? What is up Firewolf Forge? Wait a second, something about those two people, those two names. I wanted to talk today about a number of different things but we're gonna hover around this current... really I have a pleading message for the anchorage of the news networks. I was watching Wolf Blitzer and some

other guy make the case that... I don't know the case that they were making exactly, but it was something to the effect that Donald Trump's going to facilitate the takeover of Europe, basically, by one meeting, right? Where he wasn't even there. One meeting and and you know watching this the these guys do this was It made me feel bad for It made me feel terrible that they have to get up in front of the camera and this is their career and they have to pretend like What they're saying they believe in and is true you know

Because I could feel it. I could feel the like the Oh, I could feel it. I could feel the like the Well, I just feel it I see like the the dissipating honor coming off of their coats You know what I mean? Like in the in the good studio lighting And you know, it's what's on my mind this morning There's a number of other things we got going on here at PBN.

someone from Europe someone in European and world agriculture morning garden girl thanks for joining me someone Someone from, yeah, from that, from European agriculture that has a lot to talk about. Has a lot to talk about in terms of chicken keeping, chicken feed, effects on chicken feed around the world. Sort of the situation with avian flu. The things that are reported on the news are so boring. And the things that people, average people are involved in because of the way they make a living, it's just way cooler. Do you know what I mean?

It's just way cooler. Reaching out to these people. Monday, of course, we're gonna have Richard Anderson anderson on don't forget. Don't miss it monday Amazing show coming up survival on mars. We'll get to flex our our like our fiction uh muscles a little bit and play around with science fiction, which will you know, I think we'll see in our lifetimes most of us people landing on Mars and serve up trying to survive on Mars It I can't imagine it being very pretty I'm oh, I always think of Jamestown

Whenever I think of Mars living on Mars all that kind of stuff. I just think of Jamestown Read about the early days in Jamestown I learned a lot about the early days in Jamestown because my son was at home and he had a good history teacher and it was kov COVID time and he was learning about Jamestown. And yeah, it seems very similar to me. It seems very, there's a light snow falling. It's going to be a beautiful day, folks. Morning Jay Ferg in chat.

Nice looking chat group this morning. Thanks guys. Thanks guys for coming and hanging out with me Let's get into it without further ado, let's let's talk about it for those of you who don't know The The news is basically decided that Donald Trump is sided with Russia now and the war is It's over and Russia gets everything they want and Ukraine gets nothing they want Donald Trump is sided with Russia now and the war is it's over and Russia gets everything they want and Ukraine gets nothing they want

and it's all Donald Trump's fault fundamentally. Barring the fact that no one's met with these people in three years, barring the fact that there was no real negotiations done, what's amazing to me, and I don't know, this is part of the looking at, man, there's some big snowflakes coming down now. This is part of the sort of the, it's disdain, but it's also like empathy that I feel for these news anchors watching them work their way around this idea that

Donald Trump is the end of all things because it's their directive from the people up top and they got bills to pay and they got a name to keep up. Donald Trump said that Zelensky, you could see it in the article right there, that Zelensky's a dictator and he's done a terrible job. You look at Ukraine, it's hard to... What would you grade them? I think it's just nerve wracking for people that have been so brainwashed over the years that the idea of saying anything bad about Ukraine is insane because there are still people with Ukrainian flags flying outside their house

You know what? I mean, they're still in on this thing. They still bought in on this. I don't know what the ends are I don't think they you know, it's just like cheerleading. It's like putting an Eagles flag outside. It's like yeah, I'm here for support What's that mean? I don't know but I'm here to support them so I mean, I don't know, but I'm here to support them. So I find it really interesting, though, because Trump brought up the fact that Zelensky, I didn't know this. I had no idea Ukraine was under martial law since 2022. But he said that Zelensky's refused

to have elections since 2002. It's now 2025. I don't know anything about Ukrainian elections Okay, I don't I would before all of this Everyone forgets but before all of this Ukraine was just a bastion of corruption Nobody was like I'm taking my vacation to Ukraine. You know what? I mean, I cannot wait We really need to do a solid deal with the Ukrainians we need to more more interaction with the nation of Ukraine

right like it was a you would you would watch Ukrainian Parliament members punch each other in the face and it was awesome that's what I remember about Ukraine you know what I mean and corruption and a place money goes to disappear it's still that place but now we love it and we love this guy's You know what I mean? And corruption and a place money goes to disappear. It's still that place, but now we love it and we love this guy Zelensky. He's amazing. You know, then he's amazing because no one's been allowed to judge him on the media. No one in the media could possibly, especially not a guy like Wolf Blitzer, could possibly ever say, a lot of people dead, a lot of Ukrainians dead. I don't know how much negotiating the president is done the president of Ukraine

I mean, you know to get a deal done to get a war ended I don't he pops up at the Cain's Film Festival and everybody's rah rah amazing Yeah, maybe maybe the guy has done a bad job maybe the the fact that even, you know, that we'll just look at the country. How would you feel about Donald Trump? How would you feel about Joe Biden if they suspended elections and introduce martial law because there was a war in the United States? See, what you don't understand, some of you understand, but what a lot of you don't understand is there is a war in the United States. See what you don't understand, some of you understand, but what a lot of you don't understand is there is a war in the United States. America's been

at war in the United States. I don't mean Middle East, I mean in the United States. A hundred thousand people died of fentanyl poisoning every year. We've got what two three years now. We get two three years and numbers ballpark hundred thousand ninety eight ninety four whatever eighty eight I don't care it's close enough to call it a hundred. I used this example before in a show but it's really simple. If the drug cartels were flying drones over here and blowing a hundred thousand Americans up a year, you would say that's a war. What the hell is going on? And there are things being planned for you and your family. There are things being planned by Al-Qaeda, by the Taliban, by the greater Islamic army that have been exposed. They've been

exposed on podcasts. They've been written about. There's books written about them. I don't have the books in mind right now. I'm sorry I don't own them. I never read them. I just heard the podcasts and went, wow, this is wild. And perhaps we should, right? Go into in depth on that kind of stuff. But whatever. Your enemies know there's a war in the United States. They know it. And it's against you, the civilians. And what I want you to really ruminate on is that it's not just going to be a guy driving down Bourbon Street with an unused AK-47 in his backseat and an ISIS flag on his Honda Accord or whatever.

This is not what terrorist attacks are going to look like in this country forever. It's not always going to be one rogue guy who gets a few shots off and gets killed. We're getting a little too comfortable with that mentality here in the United States. There's a lot of excitement going on with Donald Trump changing things, doing things, very exciting, very cool. You will look back on this time and the amount of people being killed by drugs that are coming over to the country illegally, created by China, right? Or at least the elements to create the drugs being given to the drug cartels by China. And you'll say, wow, there was a war being fought and we didn't even realize it. And now if this homeland attack that Al Qaeda Taliban, the Islamic army, the son of bin

Laden is so intent on having happen happens in the country, then again you'll be awoken to the idea that, oh, we were at war and we didn't know it. So you know, plan accordingly. Listen to some gun metal armory. Read the book. What's the book called? Why can't I think of it? I have to look. That's it. I was saying I was going to say on resistance. Oh my god, then God came down upon me with his great light. Read the book Total Resistance by H. Von Dock, okay? Wrap your head around this concept. Wrap your head around what it could look like to see things you could never imagine seeing in the United States.

Attacks like October 7th. You know what I mean? Attacks like October 7th all over the country. You don't have to fathom how everyone responds. You have to just fathom what happens in your household when you hear gunshots outside the window. You know what I mean? what's step number one step number two step number three right do you have a weapon are you capable of using it is

it at all ready to be used right do you do you know that the weapon is sighted in and you can look down the barrel you can look down the iron sights the cool scope you bought whatever it is you have on that thing and you'll look down the barrel, you can look down the iron sights, the cool scope you bought, whatever it is you have on that thing, and you'll hit what you see when you pull the trigger. Going on the offensive, I wouldn't even consider it. I wouldn't even consider it. So having the weapon purely defensive, right? But knowing that if you have to use it to work, basic stuff, right? These are the real stories. Like the idea that Donald Trump is a covert agent

for Russia and is going to give over the rubble of eastern Ukraine to the Russians. and is going to give over the rubble of Eastern Ukraine to the Russians. There's no other plan. What's the other plan? When did Zelensky come out and said anything concrete about his plan for what's happening? Just keep sending me money, just keep sending me weapons. Eventually we'll break the Russians. eventually we'll break the Russians. Eventually we'll break the Russians and they'll run off. Firewolf Forge says total resistance is three bucks on Audible. It's a great deal. Though there's a lot of images in the book, Firewolf.

There's some really important... Is it H. von Dock, Total Resistance? Make sure it's not some kind of shoddy fiction written by somebody. Anyway, a lot of important pictures in that book, too. So I don't know if the audio book would be best. Better than nothing, though, right?

Anyhow, Total Resistance, great book. Counter-gorillas, essentially. The gorillas will be the terrorists, and you would have to consider counter-gorilla efforts, but not from a state level. You get the blanket of this kind of madness from the news and I always wondered do the people reporting the news understand the grave threats that we face or not. It doesn't matter at the end of the day. It matters what you do. It matters what you and your family are prepared for and capable of. Let's kill this. Now there's a couple more things to touch on. Zelensky accused

the US president of living in a disinformation space because Donald Trump came out and said maybe he could have stopped the war. Asked by the BBC how he would respond to the Ukrainians who felt betrayed over not having a seat at the table Trump said Ukraine could have made a deal earlier Stopping the war No, it's not in you know just is what it is Russian president Vladimir Putin later said nobody is excluding Ukraine from the talks and ending the war Yeah, again, what's the what's the plan? I mean, I think that's all like the average American person wants to see. He's like, what's your plan? Do you have a plan? Do you have a plan? Or is it literally till the last man? Because if it's till the last man, there's a bunch of men who live far away from any kind of land grab that that Russia's gonna make. You know what I mean? I mean look maybe roles reversed it's a different thing

but how long does the war go on and how long do I have to pay for it at the end of the day? Right? How long does a war like this go on? How long do I have to pay for the missiles, the bombs, the rockets, the pensions, the whatever salaries, the whole thing? Like how long? And that's fundamentally the issue, right? If no one's gonna come up with they yeah there you go that's it Firewolf Forge. If no one's gonna come up with a plan then the American people going to get tired. We are tired. We talked, you know, days ago about where money goes and where money should be going and seniors and veterans suffering in this country. All this money we should be given to them.

How could there be people in this in the nation who need money right that who need medications to survive who need food the food banks do we just read up about the food banks in the United States of America and how busy they are right how can we have those things going on and say well don't you worry we're gonna get things sorted out here eventually but in the meantime I got to go back to the White House I got to write another $200 million check to send over to Zelensky so he can buy more drones and blow up one tank at a time the entire Russian army. It's not a matter of nobody saying what Russia did is right. It's just the idea that like, come on, how long? How long? I got some more breaking news for you. Playing around with these news templates.

I think they're fun. Let's check it out. Let's check it out. I have a message for the anchors is what I have. What I have is a sound message for the nightly news anchors. Because truth be told, I feel bad for them. It's time to quit your job. Wolf Blitzer, it's time for you to call it. It's time to get out of there. Do yourself the favor. Everyone that you love is still going to be there. You may have to get rid of a vacation home.

You may have to get rid of a vacation home. You may have to get rid of this. You might have to trim back like the rest of us. But do your honor and your pride a favor by getting out of the nightly news. Just quit. Just quit. Just sit down and quit. Call the boss. I can't do it anymore. I can't get in front of the people and try to make out this dream that the worst and the most dangerous threat in the world is Donald J. Trump. You know, I mean, it really feels awful to watch you. This is direct now. This is direct to Wolf. This is direct to all these anchors, particularly the men, no offense to the ladies, but particularly the men who I watch and they cannot believe. Like, for the next four years, you're going to be paid to get in front of people like lots of them and make believe you're surprised that Donald Trump said crazy shit again and then he comes out and he says and your news organizations

don't care about you they understand that he said something crazy it'll get clicks and that's the end of the deal right and you're put in this position where it's like, this is your life. You're going to get older and they're going to fire you or you're going to retire and you're going to look back on it all and you're going to be like, what did I do? I grew up working in restaurants, you know what I mean? A lot. And restaurants, hard business. It's tough. A lot of them went out of business. And my mother used to give me some advice that I'm going to give you guys. The anchors of the CNNs and the MSNBCs and such. She always used to tell me, because I had bills, even at a young age I paid for my car, my car insurance, that kind of stuff.

And she used to tell me, Jim, don't go down with the ship. Okay, don't go down with the ship. Get out of there before the restaurant closes completely and you don't get a check. Go get another job. You know, this is your life. Wolf Blitzer. This is my cry to you, you know advice from from my mother. Okay, don't go down with the ship. It's embarrassing and on that note Let's do a little shipwreck, Alfredo All right folks, let me get my big head out of the way Super simple, super easy, unbelievably delicious dish that is probably one of the most underrated things people can make.

And it's really because there's two ingredients in it or at least one ingredient that people don't really buy very much. Probably the reason that people don't make it. Also you can get it in a jar for real cheaper and even in a can for real treatment. It's not too bad, but it's nothing like the real thing. We're gonna call it shipwreck Alfredo because you know, don't go down with the ship. Born to brat says in chat real quick born to brat says no news just quit social media too old-school style

much easier to live oh firewood forces make coffee at home come on dude I own a coffee business don't you think I make coffee at home it's a snow-covered wonderland out there and the roads are a little you know so I told my wife I'd go pick her up Starbucks this morning and in doing so I'm drinking Starbucks It's alright. It's not the end of the world. Don't go all wolf blitzer on me. This is not a headline So shipwreck Alfredo folks How many people know how to melt cheese into cream or to melt cheese into a bechamel sauce, right? It's He there are only a few ways you can mess it up really Or to melt cheese into a bechamel sauce, right? It's uh, It

There are only a few ways you can mess it up really Yeah, actually there might only be one way you can mess it up. The only thing you really have to avoid is uh, You can't bring The sauce back to an immense simmer or boil after you've added the cheese Or you risk the cheese coagulating down at the bottom. And then you ruin the sauce. Separation, fat on top, cheese ball at the bottom, gross. But aside from that, man, it's pretty cake.

And Alfredo's sauce, what do we got here? One, two, three, four. If you take away garnish and seasonings, you're talking about a four ingredient dish, right? Firewolf Ford says, give me the sauce. I'll find three more ways to mess it up. I'm sure there are some, but I'm saying the big screw-ups that you can make.

Some people do sliced garlic, crushed garlic in their Alfredo. I think that you don't want to, I love garlic, all right, but I don't want to bite into a garlic piece in my Alfredo. You want it like smooth, you know, satiny. You're making a sauce here. Sauce, respect the sauce. You know what I mean?

It's not a ragu. So I prefer to mince the garlic down tiny, you know, fine. Mincing is essentially the way I was taught. It's supposed to be like fine sand like mincing supposed to take some time It's not a thing that you do with a few swipes of a knife Quarter cup of butter Just keep everything low low to medium low There's no need when at all to put anything on high heat in this recipe

You know what I mean? Most people cook on high and low and they don't you know, the management of heat is where people really really Screw things up. Oh My god Firewolf Forge says put respect the sauce on an apron. I got a t-shirt In the works with Jay Ferg. I got a t-shirt in the works with Jay Ferg. I got another t-shirt just this morning that came from Chin direct bible quote that is kind of phenomenal and and now we got the respect the sauce apron. Yeah we might we might have to make that happen but it's true it's true sauce is thing, man, in culinary school. It's a very big thing, particularly if you have a French chef as I did, you know, raining down on you.

We don't sauce food very much anymore because we're afraid of sauce, you know. Everything has to be grilled, like seasoned, grilled, and out the window, you know what I mean? And that's it. Like, there's no more saucing. There's no more putting Taking veal bones and roasting them and reducing that down by like Ten times to get what we used to call a veal glass or a demi glass Like a sauce so thick that when you put it in the fridge It's becomes like a rubber disc literally so anyway minced garlic quarter cup of butter medium to low heat

at the most until it's fragrant until you smell the garlic once you smell the garlic oh that smells good and garlicky boom in goes the cream you do it any more the garlics gonna burn it's gonna taste like burnt garlic or overcooked garlic or brown garlic and you start over clean the whole pan start over so just till you get a smell of the garlic then boom right heavy cream reduced by at least a third to a half reduce the heavy cream down and and the really the most important thing right the most important thing is the cheese like all your flavor comes from the cheese. Otherwise it's just

garlic milk. Just thick garlic milk, you know. So reduce it all down at least to a third, maybe to a half if you want it real thick. Depends on how thick you want it, right? You could do a quarter, you know, whatever. It's a consistency thing. You know how to test sauce consistency? You take a wood spoon, dip it in the sauce, run your finger across it. If the line stays momentarily that you run your finger through, your sauce is plenty thick. It doesn't really need to be much thicker than that. If we run it through and the line stays there forever,

too thick. No line, not thick enough. So you add your Parmigiano Reggiano. It's expensive Parmesan cheese. Or here's an idea. You add the salty Italian cheese that you like, Pecorino Romano, Parmesan. Whatever it is, Fontina even. You're going to get into something a little crazy. Whatever it is that you like. Imagine. Sometimes in a recipe you look at a recipe, right? And you go, oh, dude, I hate Parmesan or Reggiano cheese.

So don't put it in your food. Simple. Salt. Not too much. Everything in there is salty. Fresh cracked pepper like crazy like until your arm is tired this is something that's often left out of Alfredo sauces but it's one of my favorite parts and then you can do some chopped flat leaf parsley if you want to add that flavor if you want to add no flavor you can do chopped curly parsley because chopped curly parsley is like

adding iceberg lettuce to a sauce. You know, I'm just going to do nothing for it. And that's it. That's your shipwreck Alfredo. That's basically it's a man. Super. If you have the if you have the heavy cream and the cheese, that's it. It just heat up the pan. Garlic until fragrant. Cream in and, you know, serve it up with fettuccine

well you can get crazy you could do like a fusilli you can do what it was like a bowtie pasta you could do whatever kind of pasta you like too you don't have to do fettuccine Alfredo right life is good folks take advantage of it you know what I mean take advantage of it it's easy I I mean? Take advantage of it. It's easy. I hope you enjoyed that That little shtf chef there. We figured that out. We've cracked the code. The only thing left to do going forward is Let me get rid of this the only thing left to do going forward is to create the shtf chef video

instruction to create the SHTF chef video instruction that will be overlaid on these shows also. So if we get into knife techniques and cooking with real visuals, we can add that into. I think that will be good. Uh... 220. The Commander's Challenge is coming to an end in just 8 days. I hope you've been getting your calm within chaos on We will have a march routine.
