Doomsday preppers, paranoid and

9
00:00:22,960 --> 00:01:00,440
crazy or logical and aware?
Well hello my bizarre story

10
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,840
friends please help me welcome
my Co host tests with the most

11
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:08,520
tests.
Alicia, how you doing?

12
00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:10,840
How you doing?
How you doing?

13
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:15,120
How you doing?
How's how's tricks?

14
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,200
How's things?
It's been a hot minute we've.

15
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,600
Been a hot minute.
We've been off for the holidays.

16
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,360
We have, Yep, that's very true.
I feel like a lot, you know,

17
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,800
every, every, everywhere I turn,
something's happening.

18
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,040
The world's blowing off.
Everything's burning, happening

19
00:01:30,320 --> 00:01:31,360
so fast.
But you know what?

20
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,240
There is some freedom in that,
because then you can be like,

21
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,720
who fucking cares?
I'm just going to be whoever I

22
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,720
want to be.
I'm just gonna do whatever I

23
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,840
wanna do.
So I'm trying to I'm trying to

24
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,000
take that route rather than the
paranoid route which.

25
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:45,880
The.
Scared and freaked out.

26
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,280
The scared, freaked out, can't
sleep, barely eating.

27
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,040
Good situation so great.
I'm feeling great.

28
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:54,480
I'm feeling good.
How are you?

29
00:01:55,720 --> 00:02:00,160
I'm well, I'm well.
It's been a nice little vacay,

30
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,360
little holiday vacay.
Yeah.

31
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,320
Spending with family and
chillax.

32
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,199
And you're right, lots of stuff
seems to be happening in the

33
00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:11,360
world, and it seems to be hard
to catch up.

34
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,840
And you could become overwhelmed
if you let yourself.

35
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,600
But we're not going to do that.
No, because we like to be

36
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,960
prepared and aware.
We do like to be prepared and

37
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,640
there logical and aware.
Logical, prepared, aware.

38
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:31,120
So you know, just on the like on
the DL or like behind the scenes

39
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,880
BTS Yeah.
We don't tell each other often

40
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:39,800
what the topic is going to be
about before we say the topic in

41
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,280
the.
Which, which?

42
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,360
Remember where you're going with
this, Remember where you're

43
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:44,600
going 'cause I'm gonna be with
you for a second.

44
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,000
Which we've often always said,
too, is what happens when we're

45
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,840
gonna do the same episode.
It's not happening in three

46
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:52,480
years in.
Three years.

47
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,680
But but you know what, we could
have synchronicity and we could

48
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,720
do the same topic.
It would just have to be like A2

49
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,360
parter episode, right, Right.
That's a good point because we

50
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,200
have, we have totally different
ways of like seeing things in

51
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,520
life and stuff.
So yeah, it could be.

52
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:09,600
So what you're gonna say We
weren't?

53
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:10,280
We didn't.
So we.

54
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:14,720
Didn't know but on on my way to
the studio and recording I was

55
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,760
thinking gosh we really need to
do a doomsday like Prepper.

56
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,560
No.
Yeah, Yeah.

57
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,160
So it's that synchronic
synchronicity.

58
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,400
I was like, this is more and
more important.

59
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,720
Like earlier this or earlier in
2025, like people didn't have

60
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,080
foods, they were relying on
storage, like food storage.

61
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:36,000
And it's something that I think
is probably pretty important and

62
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,760
that we used to do back in the
day, like back during World War

63
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,720
2, a lot of people had to hope
for the best, but prepare for

64
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,640
the worst.
Exactly people I wouldn't say

65
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:49,840
hoarded, but they learned to
retain or I guess be prepared.

66
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,840
I guess the bottom line.
Roy's mom, he would say that all

67
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,120
the time.
You know, she would kind of keep

68
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:59,360
things because she would learn.
She learned that, you know you

69
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,520
might need this because she went
through some shit.

70
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,120
Right, right.
She's seen, she probably saw

71
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,320
some wars yeah, and stuff.
And like, when you do that it

72
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,480
really changes people.
I, I collect vintage and would

73
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,120
go to estate sales.
And one thing that always struck

74
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,120
me was everyone had a like box
of matches.

75
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,560
They had flashlights in every
room.

76
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,160
They had an emergency radio.
They had all these things that

77
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:27,320
we simply have forgotten to do.
Like growing up, the power would

78
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:32,720
go out and we would have matches
and candles in different areas

79
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:38,520
of the house.
And now because I'm a freak, I

80
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:43,240
do have like matches in most
drawers, flashlights and

81
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,400
specific areas I see.
I don't think that's a freak.

82
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,920
That's just like being conscious
and prepared.

83
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,760
But people don't do that.
I have like an Amazon list of

84
00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:56,760
items that I think that a lot of
people should have or think

85
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,680
about having oh in their in
their homes.

86
00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:01,200
Oh, you do?
Yeah, I do.

87
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,920
We should.
We should share that because I'm

88
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,160
going to put a lot of links in
this episode more than I

89
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:13,040
normally do about creating
simple go bags yes, a starter

90
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,480
prep kits, just, you know, basic
stuff.

91
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,440
I mean I'm not talking like the
crazy shit that we're going to

92
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,200
talk about on this episode.
I mean, I'm just like basic.

93
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,840
Right, right, just.
Kind of being prepared for an

94
00:05:23,840 --> 00:05:25,560
ish.
Well, you know, this is the

95
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,360
bizarre F and we're not going to
be simple.

96
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,720
We're going to go down the Cray
Cray Rd.

97
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:35,640
But you know.
I am so ready I in any kind of

98
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,720
disastrous situation, I have the
plus we.

99
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,760
Have to have a bottle of wine
because they last forever. 100%,

100
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,280
yeah.
So Alicia, when I, when I say,

101
00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:48,560
you know, because I, I titled
this doomsday preppers again

102
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,120
because I mean, it's the bizarre
AF.

103
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:56,040
We can't not talk about crazy,
extreme bizarre stuff.

104
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,240
So I had to throw in the word
doomsday.

105
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:03,280
So when I hear throw out the
word doomsday burrs, like that's

106
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,840
one connotation.
But if I take that word out and

107
00:06:06,840 --> 00:06:10,080
I just said prepper, like forget
that.

108
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,280
We've had this whole
conversation and someone comes

109
00:06:12,280 --> 00:06:13,720
up to you and says, like, what
do you think about?

110
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,960
Honestly, I probably think of
someone who was like a girl or a

111
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,000
Boy Scout and like is just
prepared.

112
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:23,160
Like they just prepare for
whatever situation.

113
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,720
Like they're probably the person
who has like, band aids in their

114
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,480
glove box or, you know, like,
don't tell anyone.

115
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:34,400
But guys, I have like, water
and, like warm clothes and, and

116
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,920
like, electrolytes in my car
just in case.

117
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,560
What if I get stranded, like,
and I'm in the middle of

118
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:43,200
nowhere, Like, you know, my car
breaks down simple stuff or like

119
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,760
one of those like, battery
charged, like the chargers that,

120
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,440
like, will start your battery
again.

121
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,800
Yeah, like that simple stuff or
a freaking Atlas or a map in

122
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,720
your car.
Like these are, I would say it's

123
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,800
someone who's prepared that, you
know, thinks of what could

124
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:01,240
potentially happen.
So it's so for.

125
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:03,240
Me.
Why?

126
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,880
Because I'm a freak.
No, Yes, yeah.

127
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,400
Yeah.
Because asking you that

128
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,120
question, that's a logical
answer, right?

129
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,360
But if you ask a normal person
that that's not, they're going

130
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:17,280
to be their answer.
No, they're.

131
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:18,960
Going to be like, it's one of
those guys it's.

132
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,120
One of those crazy freakoids
that.

133
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,640
Yeah, yeah.
Have like an underground bunker

134
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,120
and and like 50 years worth of
like food storage.

135
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,640
Yeah, it's always the extreme.
Yeah, right.

136
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,280
They think of the extreme side
of the prepping.

137
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,000
Totally.
Well, and people can be

138
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:40,000
extremists.
That's.

139
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,160
Well, I mean, mix it up.
Yeah.

140
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,760
Well, let's, I'll tell you what,
I love an extreme situation.

141
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,840
It's it's so interesting to
watch and.

142
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,600
Well, you're right exactly.
Because they used to have that.

143
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,320
They had that show on like
Discovery, right?

144
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,480
Like about Doom preppers and
like like prep?

145
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,360
I guess it was yeah, Prepper
which.

146
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,280
Is probably the people on
discovery.

147
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,960
Oh, on the is a history.
Or maybe it was history.

148
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,160
Yes.
Yeah, yes, 'cause I'm gonna talk

149
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,600
about some people that were
actually on that show.

150
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,560
OK.
I'm so excited.

151
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,080
Yeah.
So like I said, you know,

152
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,640
normally when typically, I
shouldn't say normally,

153
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,000
Typically when people hear the
word prepper, they're thinking

154
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,720
about people that aren't quite
in the right, right in the head.

155
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,520
Yeah, not rational, super
extreme.

156
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,600
Believe Jesus is going to come
tomorrow.

157
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,400
Exactly.
Do you know who Jodie?

158
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,520
I'm going to prove my point.
Do you know who Jodie

159
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:39,760
Hildebrandt is 0?
Girl, I know I have.

160
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,480
I have been down this road.
OK.

161
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,880
Yes, I do.
OK, so for those in the class

162
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,720
that don't know who Jodi
Hildebrandt is, explain briefly

163
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:54,240
who she is.
OK, so Jodi Hildebrandt is a,

164
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,520
you know, she was a licensed
therapist in the state of Utah

165
00:08:59,680 --> 00:09:05,920
and ended up starting a, some
would say cult, some would say,

166
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,320
some would say she was a life
coach.

167
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,560
That's what she called herself.
So she started this group called

168
00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:14,840
Connections and she was actually
a part of the LDS, the Mormon

169
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:19,080
Latter Day Saints Mormon Church.
She Mormons, by the way, huge

170
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,280
doomsday preppers, very much
believe in the end of days and

171
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:24,800
to stock your pantry, blah,
blah, blah.

172
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:29,440
So that's like her background,
but she started this connections

173
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:36,200
group and it she became very,
very close with a mommy vlogger

174
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,600
that was on YouTube and actually
pretty big.

175
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,240
She had a channel called 9
Passengers.

176
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:47,240
Anyways, they ended 8.
Passengers. 8 passengers. 8

177
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,280
passengers.
So she had.

178
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:53,040
They became close and she had
gotten involved with Jodi

179
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,200
Hildebrandt kind of pushed
forward this narrative that Jodi

180
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,280
had, which was also pushing
forward aspects of the Mormon

181
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,120
church like the LDS churches
thing, but a huge piece of that

182
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,800
and it's a huge piece of anyone
who is actually LDS or Mormon

183
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,840
100% has a stocked up pantry for
the end of days.

184
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,480
And Jodi Hildebrandt was part of
that.

185
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,600
Later on, they end up there's a
child abuse.

186
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,880
She was awful, She was awful.
And she's she's currently

187
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,800
sitting in prison.
She Cray Cray person who's a

188
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,880
complete doomsday prepper.
And would go to Mexico for like

189
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,200
antibiotics and stuff to prep.
That's new.

190
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,480
Yeah, didn't know that one, but
OK, that only emphasizes my

191
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,920
point.
She's Jodi Hildebrand.

192
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,360
Fucking crazy.
But the truth really of the

193
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,920
matter is that there are
reasonable reasons for prepping

194
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,760
100 and we kind of were talking
ending to this in the beginning

195
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,440
of the of the show.
Oh, and oh by the way, when I

196
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,760
say reasonable, that is in the
eye of the beholder because when

197
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,040
I go through this list.
Your personal list of.

198
00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,400
What you Well, it's the list of
things that I think people prep

199
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,120
for.
OK, OK, OK, gotcha.

200
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,480
Some will be completely
unreasonable, but to some people

201
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,200
they might be reasonable.
Sure, just saying.

202
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:14,040
Sure, just saying.
So 1 is natural disasters are

203
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:15,920
becoming more frequent.
Right.

204
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:24,480
Extreme wildfires, more F5
tornadoes, Cap 5 hurricanes,

205
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,840
extreme weather events, it
increasing in both more

206
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,640
frequency and intensity.
Flooding, yes and this.

207
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,880
And by the way, this is NOAA
data.

208
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,680
This is just making this up and
when disaster hits help this

209
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,120
often delayed because of the
intensity of the invent and you

210
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,360
create more, create more need
for assistance, less access to

211
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,760
the areas right.
Yeah, yeah.

212
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,880
Especially rural areas.
Yeah, exactly.

213
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:55,360
And there are many instances
when where hardcore preppers

214
00:11:55,960 --> 00:12:00,560
have personal experiences in
disaster situations where

215
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:05,080
because they have been preppers
have saved others or themselves

216
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:06,760
100.
It's been proven.

217
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:11,680
I mean, it's happened, yeah,
economic uncertainty.

218
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,000
Yes.
What if there's another Great

219
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:14,840
Depression?
Oh.

220
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,920
My God, yeah.
Economic downturns, Job

221
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:22,000
inflation, Jobs.
I mean, we've seen grocery

222
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,640
prices go up dramatically.
Exactly, exactly.

223
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,280
Global instability, conflict,
war.

224
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:35,640
I mean, we've seen a global
leader invading a country.

225
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:40,280
We've seen another leader,
including another, invading

226
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,520
another.
I mean, it's happening more and

227
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:43,800
more frequently.
Yeah.

228
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,320
This is like not crazy.
This is not the crazy part.

229
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,640
This is like we're the reality
we're living in.

230
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:49,600
Yeah.
Exactly.

231
00:12:50,560 --> 00:12:53,360
You have these all these
geopolitical tensions.

232
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,800
Fighting for natural resources.
Natural resources large scale

233
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,400
emergencies are inevitable and
then you have preppers preparing

234
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:06,520
for even extreme things like
nuclear, biological, chemical

235
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,800
threats.
Some that was I'm next to my

236
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:13,440
list Worldwide pandemic power
grid failure EMP.

237
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,840
That scares me.
Alien invasion.

238
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,840
Oh my God.
Bum, bum, bum.

239
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:21,440
And we're back.
And.

240
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,560
We're back and Alicia is not
sleeping tonight.

241
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:28,960
Yeah.
And this is what I'm prepared.

242
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,720
This is why I have water in my
car and electrolyte stuff.

243
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,240
Yeah, OK.
With the exception of Alien,

244
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,480
which I don't know.
I'm getting closer and closer to

245
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:43,120
thinking X-Files is not so far
removed from us, but.

246
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,520
Which we will be talking about
in great detail in the next

247
00:13:46,680 --> 00:13:49,000
several weeks.
Yes, we definitely will.

248
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:53,400
But but yeah, I mean, it's like
there there are more reasons to

249
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:57,680
potentially be prepared for, you
know, potentially the worst.

250
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,320
New gasp daddy MPs.
Yeah, that scares the shit out

251
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,320
of me.
It scares, honestly.

252
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:03,800
It's.
Because.

253
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,880
Because I know why?
Because that is the most

254
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,120
destructive component beyond
anything.

255
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,880
Because why?
Because it's even more so than I

256
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,600
would say a nuclear bomb.
Because a nuclear bomb, it's

257
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:20,920
going to blow you up and you're
dead.

258
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:28,400
An EMP is going to take out all
things that matter to us as a

259
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,120
civilization, and then you're
just going to fucking suffer.

260
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,640
Yeah.
And it's an electromagnetic

261
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,880
pulse, right?
And So what that does is it

262
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:41,080
fries any electronics, any
electric electrical equipment

263
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,960
around.
And now we're so dependent on

264
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:43,880
our phones and.
Electric.

265
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,680
That's the point.
That's the point.

266
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:54,480
And that's what, in my opinion,
makes this more even more mere

267
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,640
quoting legit.
Yeah, yeah, less crazy person.

268
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,760
My last reason for prepping.
Oh.

269
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,640
My God, what is it?
I'm a little scared.

270
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:11,440
No, don't be OK.
This is a good one for many and

271
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:17,920
I would even go as far as saying
for most preppers prepping it's

272
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:24,360
not about fear, it's actually
about freedom, having the means

273
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:30,360
to be self-sufficient, survive
without relying on outside help

274
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,680
and it provides a sense of
security and independence.

275
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:39,400
That is why I personally prep.
Amen.

276
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,160
Yeah.
Slow clap.

277
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:51,240
I just saluted Kevin.
Stand with me, Manatee.

278
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:55,360
No, but really, like, I mean, it
is like it is a freedom thing.

279
00:15:55,360 --> 00:16:00,640
It's like the more independence
you have, the more autonomy and

280
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:04,040
you don't live your life out of
fear.

281
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:08,080
Being prepared like you're
saying it, it takes away the

282
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,560
guesswork of what the hell is
going to happen when, you know,

283
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:12,960
zombies take over the world or
whatever.

284
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,560
Exactly.
Now we all know you can't

285
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,440
prepare for every friggin
possible scenario in the world

286
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,640
unforge.
And the likelihood of a

287
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,520
catastrophic event affecting
you, albeit a real possibility.

288
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:35,560
Maybe a small one, but for most
people I would can say that

289
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,960
prepping is just low on their
priority scale compared to just

290
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:41,760
trying to survive and live a
normal day.

291
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,240
Oh my God, For sure.
Yeah.

292
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,880
I'm so busy.
I'm so distracted.

293
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,480
I have too many like balls that
I'm trying to drop juggle.

294
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,560
It's true.
Yeah, start with the essentials.

295
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,480
Work your way up to the big
stuff.

296
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,120
In fact, I'm going to put some
links in our show notes, like I

297
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,280
said before, or they'll have you
some references to stuff if

298
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,960
you're interested in learning
more about prepping, kind of

299
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,040
show you how to get started on
the look down low on the cheap.

300
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,240
Just get your feet wet.
Yeah, I'll have that.

301
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,880
My Amazon list.
And Alicia's going to put her on

302
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:11,720
Amazon list.
So yeah, we'll get you.

303
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,880
We'll get you some resource.
I'm going to talk about the

304
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:20,119
primary things that preppers
focus on when they are prepping.

305
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,839
I'm going to introduce you to
some preppers and the things

306
00:17:24,839 --> 00:17:27,760
that they feel like they are
prepping for.

307
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:31,480
Oh yeah, dying.
OK, but this is the bizarre AF

308
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,600
as I mentioned.
So let's first talk about

309
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,760
bunkers and shelters.
Oh yeah, yeah.

310
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,200
OK.
So you're going to have to have

311
00:17:40,360 --> 00:17:45,040
a shelter of some sort if an
event occurs, OK?

312
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,200
Especially doomsday or
catastrophic event, right?

313
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:55,320
What's interesting and I could
not find the link, I could not

314
00:17:55,320 --> 00:18:03,120
find the association to this,
but I found that in 2011 that

315
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:07,080
bunker sales like I'm going to
go hide in the ground because of

316
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,560
a doomsday event.
Bunker sales increased by like

317
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:14,400
1000% in 20.
Oh my God.

318
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:19,960
The companies that make those
and build those kinds of things

319
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:26,160
saw this tremendous increase,
interesting in bunkers and this

320
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,920
and the likes.
Oh do you know why?

321
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,480
No tell me I OK I think I just
tracked or cracked.

322
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,040
Perfect.
I'm great.

323
00:18:34,360 --> 00:18:37,120
Remember 2012?
Was it 2012 where they, like the

324
00:18:37,120 --> 00:18:40,920
Mayan calendar ended?
Do you think people were

325
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,680
prepping for the end of the 2012
calendar?

326
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:47,600
I don't know the the Mayan
calendar that doesn't line.

327
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,920
Yeah, it was 2012, right?
Yes.

328
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,120
Yeah, yeah, maybe.
Maybe that was part of it.

329
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,560
That.
That, or do the global elite

330
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,200
know something we don't know?
I mean well.

331
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,280
It didn't happen, yeah.
Well, yeah, but you're like

332
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,360
looking 30 years into the
future, right?

333
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,360
No, that tracks.
That's a good.

334
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,240
Let's let's say it's my
calendar.

335
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,160
I I that that tracks to me.
Yeah.

336
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,200
I'm going to just you to
introduce you to a guy named

337
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:18,600
Riley Cook who made a custom
made bunker.

338
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,640
And he cuts it right into the
side of a mountain where a

339
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:29,360
family of five can live and
survive for years.

340
00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:33,240
There's and one of the most
fascinating bunkers that I found

341
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:38,440
was actually underground luxury
apartments in the middle of

342
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,840
Kansas.
Does not fucking surprise me.

343
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,080
Have you ever been to an
underground Mrs. Silo?

344
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,800
I've not, girl.
When I was in high school, I had

345
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,520
two besties.
One of them figures out where

346
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,360
there's, there's a missile silo
out.

347
00:19:55,360 --> 00:19:59,120
So I grew up in, in Colorado, a
small town called, and I'll say

348
00:19:59,120 --> 00:20:04,200
it's called Strasbourg.
Yeah, it's about 32 miles east

349
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:09,200
of Denver on I-70.
A friend of mine says to my me

350
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,680
and my other friend that he
knows where this missile silo

351
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,280
is.
And it's really not far from

352
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,800
Strasbourg.
I I'm thinking back, it's like,

353
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,080
I think it took us like 20-30
minutes to drive there.

354
00:20:19,360 --> 00:20:21,440
And it was in the middle of
fucking nowhere.

355
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,560
You go through a sign that says,
you know, government property,

356
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,720
but it's all abandoned and tore
down.

357
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:33,640
And girl, there was literally
like a hole in the ground with a

358
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:37,280
half open lid.
And that's all you see.

359
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,680
And we went down in that hole,
down this ladder, and then

360
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:46,600
suddenly you're in this huge
Tavern that has these stairs

361
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,720
going around.
Like there was an elevator shaft

362
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,240
in the middle.
And we're going all the way

363
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,120
down.
And then there's like these

364
00:20:53,120 --> 00:20:56,480
tunnels, huge tunnels that are
made out of that corrugated

365
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,480
steel.
And you're going through.

366
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,720
And we went into a computer room
where you could see the old

367
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,960
consoles.
Like literally they were still

368
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:04,680
there.
I saw this.

369
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,040
And I think back at that moment,
I'm like, why didn't I take one

370
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:09,040
of?
Those I know I was thinking.

371
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,120
Because that would have been so
cool.

372
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,360
That was so.
Cool, but no, it was scary.

373
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,840
And it was all dark.
Right pitch.

374
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,240
I mean pitch girl it pitch
black.

375
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,600
There was no light.
Oh my God, I'd be terrified.

376
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:24,960
It was scary.
I'd be afraid like a man, man in

377
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,000
black would like come.
Well, that, see that was more, I

378
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,760
was more scared of that, yeah,
than I was of something me down

379
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:32,560
there.
Right.

380
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:33,880
Quite honestly, right.
Yeah, Yeah.

381
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,440
Be more scared of you.
But they're real.

382
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:36,880
They're real.
They exist.

383
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:41,640
And in fact, there were 72, what
they called Atlas F missile

384
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,040
silos that the government built
in the Cold War, right?

385
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,280
And I don't know if that was an
Alice F, but it sure felt like

386
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,400
it.
I think that that was one of

387
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,320
them.
And these are all abandoned.

388
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,400
And so people buy these things
and they're like hurt.

389
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,160
They're built for nuclear war.
Yeah, it's going to survive.

390
00:22:00,360 --> 00:22:05,800
And this guy decides this thing
is so deep I'm going to build 17

391
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:14,200
floors of condos and sell them
all and oh, by the way he did

392
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:19,080
and that I looked and right now
I think there's only like 3 left

393
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:24,080
and one of them is a 1 is a full
floor takes the full floor condo

394
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:28,360
is sold for what was it one
point 2.4 million.

395
00:22:28,360 --> 00:22:30,800
Oh my God.
And then the floor above it,

396
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:35,280
well, they split it in half and
so and it's 1800 square foot, by

397
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,000
the way, the whole floor.
And so then the one above it

398
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,640
was, you know, split in half
that sold for half that what, a

399
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,920
1.2 million and those are
currently for sale.

400
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,880
Shut up.
But they've all sold.

401
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:53,600
They've all sold.
I mean one props to that guy for

402
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,640
like, doing it right.
Ingenious.

403
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:57,560
Genius.
Yes.

404
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:04,600
But OK, I've seen Battlestar
Galactica, but honestly, like,

405
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,760
like who's going to protect
these people?

406
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,600
Like OK, let's.
OK, let's talk about that.

407
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:17,920
So by the way, go to
survivalcondo.com when you have

408
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,960
a moment.
When you're feeling extra

409
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,680
paranoid, go to
survivalcondo.com.

410
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:31,480
Sponsored by survivalcondo.com
No, we're not.

411
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:37,760
Those bitches aren't paying us.
Okay, so check this out can have

412
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,200
access to them at any time.
You don't have to doesn't have

413
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,440
to be a disaster like you bunch
you bite, it's yours.

414
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,600
So if you want to go stay in
your survival condo, you can't

415
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,200
go for it.
You can live there like full

416
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:49,640
time, sure.
Why not?

417
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,120
It's yours.
You can't finance it because

418
00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:55,760
banks won't finance it.
So you got to have some cash.

419
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,600
For security reasons.
They won't even tell you where

420
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:00,400
it's at.
I was wondering about that.

421
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,360
So you're.
Going to have to qualify to buy

422
00:24:03,360 --> 00:24:08,240
it then you can go see them then
they'll go tell you where it is.

423
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,200
Then they'll go show you where
it is and, you know, tell you

424
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,840
about you got to even be able to
buy it first, right?

425
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,680
They have A2 silos.
That'd be Awanatua.

426
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:26,160
They work with the owners to
ensure you are able to travel to

427
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:31,320
the facility from any state
using one of three contingency

428
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,040
plans in the event of a
catastrophe.

429
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:39,520
Wow.
And they only discussed these

430
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,320
contingency plans and the method
of getting you there again from

431
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,000
any state if you qualify and
buy.

432
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,080
And want to buy it?
Yes.

433
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:53,160
They have the highest level of
military grade security that

434
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:59,840
money can buy, offers both
lethal and non lethal measures

435
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:01,640
of protection to their
residents.

436
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,640
Wow.
They say they've designed their

437
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,720
security protocols with about
every consideration that you

438
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:13,040
could possibly think of that
could affect or harm the

439
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:17,920
residents.
They also say that although most

440
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,840
of the details of the entire
project are confidential, they

441
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,840
do have all the necessary
communication systems for both

442
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:31,800
pre and post disaster needs.
They supply direct link

443
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,640
communications to the condos
remotely for their owners, as

444
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,320
well as fiber optic Internet
data streaming for education,

445
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,920
information and entertainment.
And they have silo to silo

446
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:48,960
network communications ready.
I have a couple questions.

447
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,400
One how much is the HOA?
That's a good.

448
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,480
Question.
Another question, are you

449
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,080
required to keep your own stock
of food?

450
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:06,160
OK, so let's talk about that and
water.

451
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:12,000
They have all the necessities to
survive in a luxury resort

452
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:17,680
setting for as long as five
years without having any concern

453
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,040
about sustainability or living
off grid.

454
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:21,960
The rent there you're prepared
for.

455
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:26,080
OK.
It is not just $1,000,000, it

456
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,280
has to be more than that.
There has to be add-ons.

457
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,320
You know, they don't mention the
add-ons, they don't mention the

458
00:26:31,360 --> 00:26:33,680
HOA and the resort fees.
Yeah, of course they're not

459
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,400
going to, not until you already
put your down payment and

460
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,960
they're like, well, sorry, we're
locked into a contract.

461
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,840
Girl, if money was no object I
would buy one.

462
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:46,280
I know same, same.
You know what I always talk so

463
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,120
one of like the big questions I
used to ask people to kind of

464
00:26:49,120 --> 00:26:51,120
understand who they are like
friends, whatever.

465
00:26:51,120 --> 00:26:53,200
When I was like dating people
like same thing.

466
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,560
What would you do?
Like what would be your first

467
00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:00,280
thing on zombie apocalypse?
Like what is your first thing?

468
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:01,600
What do you do your?
First action.

469
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:02,720
Yeah.
Where do you go?

470
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,680
Like like what actions do you
take?

471
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,640
That does a lot about a person.
It does.

472
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,840
It's like, it's like tells you
whether or not they're

473
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,600
practical, whether or not they
think long.

474
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,280
How they think.
Yeah, yeah.

475
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,520
Are they, are they logical?
Are they?

476
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:16,960
You know what?
Dependent.

477
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,920
Are they independent?
Yes.

478
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,040
Yes.
What direction are you going to

479
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,480
go in?
And in Colorado, which is where

480
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,760
we are, like everyone says, I'm
going to go head up into the

481
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,880
mountains.
Bad fucking call as far as I'm

482
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,680
concerned.
That tells me you're not

483
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,280
thinking ahead.
I think you head out fucking

484
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,680
east and you head the plains.
Yeah, because who else is going

485
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:42,600
to go out there?
There's nothing if you are

486
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,800
prepared enough, if you have to
leave, go out there because

487
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:47,880
there's only a couple of ways
into the mountains and then the

488
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,040
mountain range and everyone's
going to try that.

489
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:54,520
And you are stuck with just a
couple of routes, which is a

490
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,000
great way to like get in trouble
because there's going to be a

491
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,000
car accident, whatever.
But I always think it's very

492
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,280
interesting when people say
that.

493
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:06,320
So the fact that this, the condo
situation is in Kansas makes a

494
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:07,840
whole hell of a lot of sense to
me.

495
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:12,440
Or like Wyoming or like anywhere
that's not populated, right.

496
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,880
That's the point.
Yeah, yes, I do wonder what the

497
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:20,360
add on fees are because I'm
sorry, like 1.2 million, 2.4, it

498
00:28:20,360 --> 00:28:22,400
seems a little low.
It does for five years.

499
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,560
Luxury.
But I think they have enough

500
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,520
units.
That's why they don't have the

501
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:33,440
add-ons, I think, because they
can sell enough units to cover

502
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,720
all of that.
But also what about like the

503
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,280
staff and stuff like you think
the staff isn't going to rebel

504
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:40,520
against?
Well, that's the other thing.

505
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,240
So I was reading their website
and there's an F there's this

506
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:48,080
FAQ and it says, well, what if I
have skills to help sustain a

507
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:49,760
community?
Like do I get a discount?

508
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,160
I don't know, you know, like a
doctor.

509
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,600
Or whatever that would make.
Sense and they say, well, we're

510
00:28:55,600 --> 00:29:00,160
gonna we're gonna consider that
kind of stuff because obviously

511
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:04,240
if you're gonna have a community
community, you need all skills.

512
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,160
You need as many people that are
varied and different.

513
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,360
Not just people that are rich
that can buy a fucking floor.

514
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,920
Yeah, because guess what?
I've known quite a few rich

515
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,480
people and they're useless.
They're completely useless and

516
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,320
tacky as fuck.
Yeah.

517
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,640
Exactly.
Yeah, yeah, there's this also,

518
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,120
this guy named Bruce Francisco
and Gregory Gibbons.

519
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:28,680
They got one of these silos in
Adirondack State Park near Lake

520
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,120
Placid.
It's about 100 acres of land and

521
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,280
they build this home right on
top of this stairwell.

522
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,680
Have you ever seen those movies
where it looks like this

523
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,760
concrete wall that kind of
angles down?

524
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,760
It's just a door and it goes
into nothing.

525
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,880
That's all you see is just like
this little angled wall.

526
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,480
So that's what they bought and
it's of one of these silos.

527
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:55,680
They built a home right on top
of that stairway so that you

528
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,720
could go into this silo.
They painted a secret door

529
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,920
inside the house so you can
going down into the silo.

530
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,720
Which I thought, Oh my God,
that's really cool.

531
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,560
That's like, that's like an evil
layer.

532
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,760
Exactly, exactly.
I will put a link to the

533
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,520
rendering of their plans on our
website so you can go look at

534
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:17,080
that if you want to.
My husband and wife, named Ed

535
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:22,280
and Diana Jamison, also bought a
retired Cold War air missile for

536
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:29,840
$40,000, which was a previously
a home of A4 megaton nuclear

537
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,920
warhead.
They refurbished it and they

538
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,160
showed pictures of it and it
looks like a house.

539
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,440
It looks like a home.
Like if you didn't know any

540
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,200
better, it was a home and a
missile silo.

541
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:46,960
It was nuts. 18 inches of
concrete walls, 4 ton blast, 400

542
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,520
ton blast door.
I mean you know the whole ship.

543
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,960
Have you ever seen people build
homes out of shipping

544
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:58,080
containers?
I have heard about this, yeah.

545
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:02,960
So I was actually looking into
doing this as well, maybe buying

546
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,600
a little piece of land up in the
mountains or somewhere, just

547
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,880
have it a little getaway and
building it out of shipping

548
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,000
containers.
You can stack them, you can put

549
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,840
them side by side tend.
To be kind of cheap, right?

550
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:16,080
They're inexpensive and they've
already got the structure like

551
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,280
they're they're heavy duty walls
and ceilings.

552
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:20,520
Yeah.
So you know you don't.

553
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,360
It's not like you have to like
build it all out.

554
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:29,240
Exactly that is a very common
prepper purchase is shipping.

555
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,480
Containers.
That makes sense.

556
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:36,000
So a man by the name of John
Major, he cuts a hole in his

557
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:40,280
garage, digs a hole, builds this
5 by 7 container.

558
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:45,160
He puts foxholes out around his
property and connects them via a

559
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,680
tunnel so that he can defend his
house through these little

560
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,840
foxholes.
This was a very common theme

561
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:55,080
when I was researching this,
that when people have a large

562
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:59,920
properties that they create
these little foxholes right out

563
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:02,080
throughout their house so they
can defend their property.

564
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,800
A guy by the name of Barry cuts
a hole in his yard, puts a big

565
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:10,040
steel pot under there, puts a
with stairs that go down.

566
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:14,520
It sleeps his family of four for
two months because he stocks it

567
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,640
full of.
Like long term, like MRE's kind.

568
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:20,600
MRE's exactly dehydrated food,
some water for the dehydrated

569
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,720
food etcetera, etcetera.
And we'll go talk to about him a

570
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,720
little bit more in a minute.
What his plan is after two

571
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,600
months.
But he he's there's a lot of

572
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,560
people that will buy pre
manufactured pods to bury them

573
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:38,760
in their yard, right?
Guy by the name of Doug Hoffman,

574
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,280
who was a retired defense
contractor, built a series of

575
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:48,800
the what he called spider holes.
They are these little coffin

576
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,720
sized.
Oh my God, that sounds like.

577
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:57,400
Hell holes where he will go hide
on his property.

578
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:01,840
He can.
Stick a little gun out.

579
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:06,320
If he needs to monitor his
property, it's he's got like

580
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:10,680
hundreds miles of property and
there's all spread out

581
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,040
throughout his property, these
little spider holes.

582
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:18,200
The fact that I sometimes think
that I'm a little crazy and

583
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,600
these people exist in the world
and this guy was a defense

584
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,680
contractor.
I mean, I have no questions

585
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,000
about where the military budget
fucking goes.

586
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,280
Are you kidding me?
What a weirdo.

587
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,520
My husband would rather die than
be in one of those.

588
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:36,360
Same like like I hope I'm one of
the first people like near the

589
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,440
atomic bomb.
Like I do not need to like sit a

590
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:43,640
fucking coffin no and call that
thing no thank you.

591
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,200
Right.
No, no.

592
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:50,520
That's why that guy is like a
few screws loose.

593
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:56,120
Oh my God.
People, people get get so

594
00:33:56,160 --> 00:34:00,160
extreme.
Remember, so the this Doug guy,

595
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:04,200
this defence contractor, SEAL
Team Five shit like if you think

596
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,840
of SEAL Team Five, he's like the
stereotype.

597
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,239
Who's what?
He's like, if you envision that

598
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:11,719
person look like, that's what
he.

599
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,760
Looks like and, But you know
what?

600
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,400
Those guys are unhinged.
They have to be.

601
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:18,760
They.
They have to be in order to do

602
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:19,920
their jobs.
That's true.

603
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:21,760
They are not.
They're not all there.

604
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,480
That's true because you because
you put that guns.

605
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,400
Relax.
He's like, sure, I could live in

606
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,120
a spider hole and you're like,
bro, we're not asking you to

607
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:31,280
live in a fucking spider.
Hole.

608
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,760
In fact, I think he would be
more comfortable living in a

609
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,159
spider hole than living in the
real world.

610
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,880
I like, I think he wants the
apocalypse to happen because

611
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:42,679
because he's been way more
comfortable.

612
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,120
Because he doesn't have purpose
outside of that, because he's no

613
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,400
longer on that SEAL team.
So you mentioned The History

614
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,040
Channel.
Doomsday Prepper.

615
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,199
Doomsday Pepper, National
Geographic thing.

616
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:58,120
Yes, he was on that show.
And one of the things he says

617
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,120
when they're filming him and
he's dressed in like camouflage

618
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,640
and he's got like all this
camouflage fuzzy shit on him and

619
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,760
he goes, welcome to my traps at
the spider to the fly.

620
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:12,320
I'm like, Oh my.
God.

621
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,520
So food and water, I mean,
clearly.

622
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,160
Yes, like water is even more.
Consideration.

623
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:24,360
And that's too the military
consider water the most

624
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,160
important component of survival
than anything.

625
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,400
It's it is the most important.
Thing the most important thing,

626
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:35,480
average body needs 2000 calories
a day to function at a minimum

627
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:39,280
level.
So to store food for its maximum

628
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:42,640
amount of time you have to store
it in a cool, dry and dark

629
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,440
space.
And oh, by the way, pro tip,

630
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:52,600
when I was researching this
episode, you can store eggs for

631
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:59,520
12 months if you coat them in
mineral oil and store them in a

632
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,120
cool dry.
It's it's kind of like that when

633
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,640
you take them directly out of
the chicken, as long as you

634
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,240
don't refrigerate them and wash
them, they store for a long

635
00:36:07,240 --> 00:36:10,160
time.
It's it's kind of, it simulates

636
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:15,480
that environment so that air and
oxygen can't get in there.

637
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,800
I'm like, why don't we do that?
Yeah, why doesn't, why don't

638
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:22,440
people tell us that we can just
why don't why they was?

639
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,040
Yeah, why?
Because they want us to fucking

640
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,080
buy.
Them I know next time eggs are

641
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,760
on sale, you guys get some
mineral and wrap it all up get

642
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,280
like fucking 20 different
containers and give them to give

643
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:34,920
them to a neighbor who can't
afford them.

644
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:38,680
But also, good God like that,
that should be.

645
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:39,840
That should be.
Common.

646
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:41,680
Normal.
Yeah, normal knowledge.

647
00:36:42,240 --> 00:36:47,000
So what happens when a spouse
disagrees with your prepping

648
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:51,880
parent excessiveness?
Yeah, I think we could probably

649
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:56,800
both personally answer it.
Yeah, my husband just kind of

650
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:01,000
like whatever, okay, whatever.
He's.

651
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:04,200
So chill, yeah?
But there are some that are

652
00:37:04,240 --> 00:37:07,680
near, yeah, no, because.
It takes up space it.

653
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,600
Takes up space.
It takes time, money.

654
00:37:11,720 --> 00:37:15,720
Well, there was this woman who
we'll call Janet because she

655
00:37:15,720 --> 00:37:18,400
wanted to remain anonymous.
Yes, Janet.

656
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:27,760
She has to hide her food stores,
and she hides it in every

657
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,240
possible nook and cranny she
shows us.

658
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:32,360
She takes books off the shelf.
She opens them up.

659
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:37,720
They're empty, full of like,
dried beef jerky and meats.

660
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,880
And then, I'm not kidding you,
she opens like this door.

661
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:46,440
It's hollow.
And she will pull a panel off

662
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:50,760
the back of the door and it's
full of like, I'm gonna say

663
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,600
Hamburger Helper, but it's like
box dried.

664
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,560
Yeah.
Dried Mres and dried goods from

665
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:57,680
top to bottom.
Yep.

666
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,320
Like flat.
So they could fit in the door

667
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,560
like every possible place you
could think of.

668
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,960
That is like, that's like people
who lived through the Depression

669
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:09,200
who would hide money in
different areas and like would

670
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:13,000
would save like and recycle
things like that was common.

671
00:38:13,240 --> 00:38:15,800
They'd hide like in their
mattresses and in the walls,

672
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:17,320
sure.
And valuables.

673
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,360
Yes, wild, wild.
Oh, poor.

674
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:24,320
Janet.
Well, her husband, yeah, he's.

675
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:26,960
Gonna open up the door and be
like what the what?

676
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:32,120
The store is heavy.
Why do we have a million copies

677
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:33,760
of cheeseburger hamburger
helper?

678
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,720
Come on, what the hell?
Well, that's just it too.

679
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,120
You can't rehydrate your
hydrated food without water.

680
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,240
Yeah, you need that takes us
back to water.

681
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,400
Yeah, it's a huge problem.
Huge problem.

682
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:52,520
You either need to know where
your source of water is, have

683
00:38:53,960 --> 00:39:00,960
water, or be prepared to make a
water source consumable.

684
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,840
Yes, that's on my list.
Good.

685
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,120
And food is also a morale
booster.

686
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,000
So having food, you know, kind
of lists.

687
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,320
So some preppers take it so
seriously that they have prepped

688
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:21,320
decades just on the food front.
There was this one prepper, her

689
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:24,600
name was Colleen Bishop.
She spent the last 20 years

690
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:30,280
prepping to have ultimately 8
years of gourmet food.

691
00:39:30,720 --> 00:39:33,960
What'd she do?
She's canning every fucking

692
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:37,640
thing.
And she makes like deliberate

693
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:43,560
meals and cans them and jar, you
know, in like glass jars, like,

694
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,240
but kind of like meatloaf and
shit.

695
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:51,960
And and Coco von, Coco Von, she
makes Coco von I think is what

696
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,920
it is and puts that in the jar.
And she stores it under her bed,

697
00:39:55,960 --> 00:40:02,200
in her night stand, her house
packed girl packed full of food.

698
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:07,280
So this is kind of where we go
into an area where it's how much

699
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:13,000
of this is greed or a psychosis
and how much of the like.

700
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:17,120
Yes, like.
There is a fine line with being

701
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,840
prepared.
Don't get Don't get me wrong, I

702
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:23,200
want to eat some nice food, but
at the end of the day, the last

703
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:24,600
thing I'm going to be thinking
about it was.

704
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:26,400
Do we have any Kokova?
Yeah, yeah.

705
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,440
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do we have, did you, did you

706
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:32,640
dehydrate that German chocolate
cake that we can just rehydrate

707
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,360
with our, you know, tablets or
whatever the fuck it is?

708
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:41,160
It's like like that's that is
like borderline unhinged.

709
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:46,760
We are getting into the world of
excessive, compulsive, yeah.

710
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:47,920
Yeah, obsessive.
Compulsive.

711
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:53,040
Unreasonable prepping.
And and prepping like when there

712
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,960
are food shortages.
It would be great to hear that

713
00:40:55,960 --> 00:41:00,160
this woman maybe when people
didn't have food stamps in 2025,

714
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,720
maybe she donated food to
families who couldn't.

715
00:41:02,720 --> 00:41:06,920
But I fucking doubt it.
It sounds like it is some

716
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,000
unhinged behavior.
I would hope that she would do.

717
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,920
Something like that, and I'm not
gonna, and I'm not saying this

718
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,680
to be judgmental, I'm just
saying it as a fact.

719
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,480
She even admitted to being a
foodie.

720
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:22,360
Loves food.
She was a big, thick girl.

721
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,240
Yes, she loved her food.
Yeah.

722
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:28,920
So that makes sense that that's
how she relates to survival.

723
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,640
Right, right, right, but girl,
can you pick up something?

724
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:37,720
Are you able to run like
potentially or are you like like

725
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:41,720
food is a a minor portion of
this whole thing like it's.

726
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,440
Such a tiny yeah.
Exactly.

727
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,080
It's not nearly as important as
other things.

728
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,640
Exactly.
You don't need cocoa, but you

729
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:51,320
need some, maybe some macaroni
and some water.

730
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,160
Yeah, yeah.
Or beans and or like a fucking

731
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:57,560
can of tuna and right, yeah,
like peas or something.

732
00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,000
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.

733
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:02,440
Then we get into defense and
safety.

734
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:06,920
So there are three types of
firearms that preppers feel like

735
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,520
are paramount to their arsenal.
There's three types.

736
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,840
There's semi automatic which
they use for long range hunting,

737
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:20,320
there's a shotgun for short
range property defense, and then

738
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:23,360
there's a handgun for close
combat.

739
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:30,400
So if you have those 3 firearms,
a non crazy prepper person would

740
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:31,800
say those three things are
enough.

741
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:33,880
Right.
Makes sense, but we are at the

742
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:38,160
bizarre AF so we're not going to
talk about those three things.

743
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,240
Let's talk about the Oozies and
the missile launchers.

744
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:48,880
So Pat Babble and his wife, they
own those three basic armaments,

745
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:53,160
but they have a few extra.
They have a nuclear bomb.

746
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,680
Somehow they got it.
I guess the government was just

747
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:59,400
selling it with the Miss asylum.
So he has a secret room in his

748
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,360
barn that's hidden behind a wall
which is conceals a locked door.

749
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:11,320
Once you get through all of that
and pass his little pantry, he

750
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:15,120
has an arsenal that I would
consider was ready for a small

751
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:15,760
battalion.
Oh.

752
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:21,800
My God.
Over 100 different firearms. 100

753
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:23,600
girl.
How many firearms can you fire

754
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,080
at once?
I mean.

755
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,800
Ultimately.
Yeah, I guess 2, but ultimately,

756
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:34,720
well, potentially.
Well, yeah, yeah, firearms are

757
00:43:34,720 --> 00:43:35,760
expensive.
They're not.

758
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:36,840
Cheap.
They are expensive.

759
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:38,960
Yeah.
And plus he has to have he has

760
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:42,120
ammo.
Mounds and mounds and mounds and

761
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:45,840
hills and buckets and drawers of
ammo.

762
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:50,560
And let's be honest, like, I
don't know, I that's excessive.

763
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:52,200
Are both of them like good
marksmen?

764
00:43:52,240 --> 00:43:56,680
So that's what I was going to
say, that he has ensured that he

765
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,840
and his wife have both been
trained and certified in

766
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:02,760
firearms.
They practice every week, which

767
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,320
I was going to say you need to
practice every week to make sure

768
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,040
that you're proficient in your
firearms.

769
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,320
And they do do that.
So they are responsible at least

770
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,400
in that respect.
There's people that I saw that

771
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,440
they hoard pipe bombs that they
make.

772
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:20,240
They label them and store each
so they know their explosive

773
00:44:20,240 --> 00:44:22,480
content, their range, their fuse
link.

774
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:31,480
Oh.
My God, Oh my God, these people

775
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,080
walk.
They walk among.

776
00:44:33,240 --> 00:44:35,920
Us being mobile or what they
call bugging out.

777
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:40,280
Yes, this is my favorite on
doomsday preppers.

778
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:42,960
If you guys need like a laugh
and to feel good about yourself,

779
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,760
they grade you at the end of
each one based on preparedness

780
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:51,200
and like yeah, like the.
With the grade each person based

781
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:53,760
on their ability to bug out.
Like, not just like bugging out.

782
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,440
They're all bugging out.
People bugging out is how much

783
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,040
can you, yeah, be
self-sufficient and completely

784
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:00,480
shut down in the case that
you're in.

785
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:02,960
Yeah.
And based on your storage, based

786
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,560
on your, your food, your
everything, sure.

787
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:10,960
But then it gets to the physical
component of having to be

788
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:14,360
mobile.
You're saying and moving around.

789
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:19,200
Once again, not judging, but who
are the people who survive in

790
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:23,080
zombie apocalypses?
It's not the person who's not

791
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:26,200
working out, not strong, doesn't
have any muscle composition.

792
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:29,760
It's the person.
It's always the people who are

793
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,520
fit or are prepared in that
aspect.

794
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,920
And funnily enough, a lot of
these people would get marks

795
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:39,000
down in doomsday preppers
because they're all, they're all

796
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,160
really huge.
Yes, yes, yes.

797
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:43,360
They are not physically
prepared.

798
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,840
It's one of the things on my
list which we're not going to be

799
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,960
able to get to today just
because our time's running slow.

800
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:53,280
But being fit is is part of a
prepper.

801
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:58,560
Yeah, a intense prepper.
Because just to your point, if

802
00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:04,880
you're this great big person who
can't even walk down the block

803
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:09,080
without being out of wind,
right, your chances of being

804
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:13,880
able to survive catastrophe or
zombies wanting to eat your

805
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:18,040
brain are reduced.
Yeah, yeah, they're slim to

806
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:18,760
none.
Slim to none.

807
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:22,320
And chances are, if you've been
on Doomsday Preppers or people

808
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,640
know about these people that
you're talking about, they know

809
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,000
who these people are.
I would never, if I were this

810
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:29,640
prepared, I would never show my
face.

811
00:46:29,720 --> 00:46:33,360
I would never let people know
who I am because it puts a

812
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,160
target on you.
Yep, right.

813
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:40,680
So there's a couple who bought
school buses, about two school

814
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,560
buses.
They have a truck with a horse

815
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:48,000
trailer and they have this.
They call it a compound, but

816
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,800
that's because they're.
That's just the way they think.

817
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:56,800
That's the way they think.
They on a very regular basis run

818
00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:05,920
and exercise where they try to
within 60 minutes, get all of

819
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:11,120
their food, all of their water,
all of their animals, which have

820
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:13,320
goats and shit.
Oh, that's very smart.

821
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:18,160
All of their essentials in
loaded from their compound into

822
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:20,640
these buses and horse trailers
within 60 minutes.

823
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:25,000
And on the road they have a plan
where they know what time of day

824
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:28,880
they're going to leave so that
certain areas they're driving

825
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:31,440
through during the daytime,
certain areas they will be

826
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:34,400
driving through tonight.
They have a specific location

827
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:38,800
that they will go to that is
undisclosed that they are

828
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:43,520
prepared to go to and they run
this monthly.

829
00:47:43,720 --> 00:47:47,760
Oh wow.
So much so that even the animals

830
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:52,840
now know what to do so that they
scoot right into this horse

831
00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:57,720
trailer in a flash.
Wow, that's, that's admirable

832
00:47:57,800 --> 00:47:59,920
that I mean, that's.
Dedication.

833
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:02,240
It's dedication.
I OK, I'm saying it's admirable

834
00:48:02,240 --> 00:48:06,040
because I'm extreme, but I'm
like, Oh my God.

835
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:08,520
But I'm sitting there thinking,
would I want to fucking do that

836
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:11,920
every single month, month or
week or whatever in order to

837
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:14,440
train the animals and stuff,
right, That's a lot.

838
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:15,920
That's.
A lot of work.

839
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:17,920
But you are thinking about that,
I do think, but.

840
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:19,680
Those are the people that are
going to survive when this

841
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:23,880
happens. 100%, yeah.
There's another couple who live

842
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,480
out of a semi.
Just converted that into a whole

843
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,040
storage.
Like just uses every fucking

844
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:35,280
square inch of this this cabin.
They their medications they will

845
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:39,680
skip a day or two every month so
that they have a supply in case

846
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:42,880
the pharmacies and stuff or they
can't get their medications.

847
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:45,040
I mean they are full on
prepared.

848
00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:49,920
They, too, run exercises every
month about what to do, you

849
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,000
know, Have you played jacks?
Oh yeah, Jacks I love.

850
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:56,040
Jacks, they store jacks in their
glove box so that if they're

851
00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:59,720
ever being followed or chased,
because they say that when

852
00:48:59,720 --> 00:49:02,560
someone sees a semi, they're
like, oh, that's a, that's a

853
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:04,400
store, that's a free store.
Yep.

854
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:07,120
So they keep jacks so that they
can throw them out the window,

855
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,400
because those will generally
always pop a tire.

856
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:14,840
Wow, that's so smart, right?
I mean, yeah, it's like the

857
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,280
immunity is impressive.
It is.

858
00:49:18,240 --> 00:49:21,320
It is, yeah.
And that his brother was again,

859
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,880
like this military defense guy.
So he always helps him train

860
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:28,960
situations like full on real
situations to make sure that if

861
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,240
they're ever tried to be
hijacked or.

862
00:49:31,240 --> 00:49:32,720
Whatever.
Yeah, if you're close to a city,

863
00:49:32,720 --> 00:49:35,760
the whole idea, like I've gone
down the rabbit hole, I've been

864
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,840
there, which is why I have prep
shit and everything.

865
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:42,240
Yeah, but if you're in the city,
it's an entirely different

866
00:49:42,240 --> 00:49:44,760
situation than if you're.
And most people will try to get

867
00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:46,000
out.
Yes.

868
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,480
Of the city, yeah.
Because to your point before,

869
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:50,360
you don't want to be with other
people.

870
00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:52,880
You want to be able to see
what's coming at you easily.

871
00:49:53,480 --> 00:50:00,120
So I found it.
So it's ��10,000 of food, 310

872
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,520
gallons of water.
Of course, all of his animals,

873
00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:05,760
his family and essentials, all
of, like I said, train their

874
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:10,720
animals and they believe that
they have 10 years worth of

875
00:50:10,720 --> 00:50:13,040
supplies.
So interesting like how do they

876
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:16,480
rotate that stuff out?
Like I have like spreads it too.

877
00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:18,520
I have spreadsheets that's.
How good.

878
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:20,520
Oh, good.
You have to be organized too.

879
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:22,920
This thing as a prepper, you
have to be organized.

880
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:24,560
You have to know where your
stuff is.

881
00:50:24,720 --> 00:50:27,160
You have to know what it is.
And when it expires?

882
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:30,600
When it expires so because.
It doesn't live forever.

883
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:32,840
No, no.
And there's like some guests

884
00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:36,200
guesstimations on things, but by
and large like you do have to

885
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:38,600
rotate stuff out, it's not going
to be as effective if you have.

886
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:41,600
Antibiotics cost money.
It totally costs money, yeah.

887
00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:44,000
This episode probably could have
gone on for another hour, but.

888
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,200
Yeah, we definitely could have
talked about.

889
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:51,960
It and while I will conclude
with saying that while probably

890
00:50:52,240 --> 00:50:56,600
while no one not probably while
absolutely no one is certain

891
00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:01,120
about when the end of days is
going to happen, even though

892
00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:06,680
these people are extreme, makes
you stop and think there is some

893
00:51:06,720 --> 00:51:11,360
or probably somewhere in between
that everyone could potentially

894
00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:21,400
be. 1. 100% one of the Reers
says in in one of the interviews

895
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:25,080
he says I think you need to be
responsible for yourself and in

896
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,320
doing anything less is a
criminal act.

897
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,240
Another one says, are you going
to sit back and wait for the

898
00:51:30,240 --> 00:51:35,160
Calvary and they may never come
and just prepare for the worst?

899
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:38,200
Martin, the truck driver, he
says with Murphy's Law, you

900
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:40,520
know, anything that can go wrong
will go wrong.

901
00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:44,920
I want to prepare for that.
Most scientists and economists

902
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,480
and military believers don't
think there's really going to be

903
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:51,120
any cataclysmic events anytime
in the near future.

904
00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:56,240
However, I will say that they
always say be prepared.

905
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:58,920
Yeah, the government.
Says that the government says

906
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:03,840
that to what level you have to
decide, to what level you need

907
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:05,640
to be prepared.
Yes.

908
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:11,720
I will tell everyone on this
show that I am a prepper.

909
00:52:13,240 --> 00:52:17,160
I actually even finally got Mr.
ES.

910
00:52:17,240 --> 00:52:20,480
Have you ever had an Mr. ES I as
a kid because my dad was in the

911
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:24,000
military.
I loved Mres.

912
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,600
I love the taste of them.
Yeah, they're real.

913
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:29,120
I loved them.
Processed and yummy.

914
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:33,640
So processed so much salt, yes,
like it has it basically like it

915
00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:37,600
has enough calories for a whole
day plus right?

916
00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:40,440
Like, right, if you're active,
like it's actually a great

917
00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:45,760
source of food and calories.
Yeah, I I loved the Mac, the not

918
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:47,280
Mac and cheese.
It was the spaghetti and.

919
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,160
The spaghetti balls.
Yeah, that was my favorite as a

920
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:49,920
kid, Yeah.
Yep.

921
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,680
So I, I finally got some
actually, Mr. ES.

922
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:55,400
I do have the dehydrated stuff.
Yeah.

923
00:52:56,080 --> 00:53:02,080
I've created backpacks that
contain all the medical supplies

924
00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:05,560
and the water purification and
all of the things that you

925
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:07,360
wouldn't.
Ultimately, there's a basic

926
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:10,520
level.
I have a defense kit, so I I'm

927
00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:14,320
starting to build up that.
Yeah, it's smart.

928
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,640
It's smart.
Yeah, yeah.

929
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:18,720
I can't imagine myself going
beyond that.

930
00:53:18,720 --> 00:53:23,360
Although if funds were no
object, I would buy the condo in

931
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:27,160
Kansas.
Yeah, I would build a container

932
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:32,080
bunker in the mountains.
I would have a boat on docked in

933
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:35,800
the ocean and I would probably
have a property with a plane.

934
00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:39,360
So I was covered in plains,
ocean, mountains.

935
00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:41,600
I mean that, yeah.
I mean, ideal, right?

936
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:43,920
Wouldn't that be perfect?
Like you'd have all of these

937
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,720
options.
Yeah, I mean, if, if we're just

938
00:53:46,720 --> 00:53:49,480
looking from a normal
perspective, FEMA has a

939
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:53,000
preparedness toolkit on it's a
government website.

940
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,640
Everyone should have specific
items.

941
00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:59,120
Emergency radio you were saying?
Water purification tablets or

942
00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:00,000
sources?
They have those.

943
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:04,640
And straws.
Straws, like the those straws,

944
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:06,440
you know you should have
multiple sources, but you also

945
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,000
don't have to spend $1,000,000.
You can go.

946
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:11,920
I've gone to the dollar store
and got band aids, gauze

947
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:14,480
matches.
Like I was saying, beans and

948
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:16,960
stuff like beans last forever.
Same thing with, right?

949
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:20,600
Oh, and one woman said she
stocks up on tampons and maxi

950
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:23,320
pads because they are absorbent.
Yes.

951
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,840
And they are sterile, yes.
So they're perfect for first

952
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:30,640
aid, yes.
Yeah, that kind of stuff.

953
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,760
Yeah.
I mean, on the list that I am

954
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:36,560
going that we're going to have
posted, I do have an Israeli

955
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:39,280
bandage kit, which is an
automatic blood clotter.

956
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:41,720
And everything.
That's extreme.

957
00:54:41,720 --> 00:54:42,920
It's totally extreme.
Yeah.

958
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:45,920
But you know, a lot of people
used to have first aid kits in

959
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:48,400
their cars just in case
something happened or you'd have

960
00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:50,280
keep a tampon.
And if you have bloody nose,

961
00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:53,120
people used to carry freaking
like, pocket knives on them.

962
00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:58,320
I have a pocket knife that also
has scissors on it and and

963
00:54:58,320 --> 00:54:59,600
toothpick.
Like that's stupid.

964
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:01,880
But like, you know, I mean,
actually I've used a lot, but

965
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:03,480
you know, it has a little bit of
everything.

966
00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:07,640
A source of alcohol to, you
know, clean a wound, an extra

967
00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:09,920
bottle of it that costs nothing.
Get out the dollar store.

968
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,320
These are things that are very,
very easy to have.

969
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:14,200
That's right.
You know you don't necessarily.

970
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:17,080
Doesn't have to be for years and
months like these extremists, it

971
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:22,360
just at least for a few days
until you can get help or get to

972
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:24,240
help or.
You can go onto YouTube, it's

973
00:55:24,240 --> 00:55:29,720
the 72 hour bag where if you
downtown or you're in your car,

974
00:55:29,720 --> 00:55:33,560
what is going to be good for 72
hours until you can get home if

975
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:35,920
you're stuck in a snowstorm or
extreme weather, right?

976
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:38,400
Makes a lot of sense, right?
I think that some of these

977
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,800
people are quick, right?
But also, it does make sense to

978
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:43,040
have some of these things on
hand.

979
00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:44,600
To some level.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

980
00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:46,200
I mean, don't have to be
extremist.

981
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:48,520
It was a great episode.
Cool.

982
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:49,640
Thank you so much.
Yeah.

983
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,480
So you guys check out our and
show notes on our website.

984
00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:55,920
We will have links to resources,
yeah.

985
00:55:56,400 --> 00:56:00,880
And we'll be posting a couple of
what our top five items that we

986
00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:02,720
would bring in the zombie
apocalypse.

987
00:56:02,720 --> 00:56:05,520
And I think what I'm probably
also gonna do and tick tock, I'm

988
00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:08,760
gonna show my go bag.
Oh my God, yes, yeah.

989
00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:10,440
Maybe things I have in my go
bag.

990
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:13,680
Yeah, yeah, yeah, same that.
That's that's a great idea.

991
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:15,360
I'm so excited to see it.
Good.

992
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,080
All right.
Well, we'll, we'll talk in a

993
00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:19,360
week or so.
Yes, sounds.

994
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:19,880
Great.
Great.

995
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:20,880
See you then.
See ya.

996
00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:21,680
OK, bye.
