Episode Date: September 23, 2025

BN family, it's time for the proper tip for the day. Hello everyone out there in Internet Radioland. This is Dave Jones, the NBC guy, coming to you with another tip. 30 tips and 30 days. How do you think this is going?

Do you think this is something valuable? Or am I just wasting my breath? Now, you all voted to get me to do this, so I'm pretty sure you're listening. It's just we never know. PBN never knows. And if you're not listening to PBN, I have to say, what the flip? I said that the other day in class. I said, WTF, and everybody started laughing.

And I said, that means what the flip, right? Anyway, today's tip is magnesium fire starters. This is a thing that was in the survival kits of downpilots and things like that. Magnesium burns at thousands of degrees. It's very soft. You can cut it with your knife. And the idea is, on one side of the magnesium fire starter, you can shave off some magnesium. Now, just shavings, okay?

The other side is a ferris rod, but it's not very good. But, I mean, it will work. It will work. It will make sparks. The idea is magnesium. I've seen it actually set well. leaves on fire okay so if you have nothing else but a magnesium fire starter you know no big foot fur no uh fire nuggets as i call them uh you can start a fire with a magnesium fire starter

and twigs even if they're wet so that is my prepper tip of the day if you're going to put fire starters in everyone's bugout bag, I highly recommend the magnesium fire starters. You can get them at Harbor Freight for like two bucks, two dollars, and they're well worth every penny. Take care and prep on.
