How Leftist Revolutionaries Are Organizing to Take America

The most dangerous stuff is rarely the loudest. It’s the part that looks chaotic from the outside but runs on training, coordination, and a clear goal. We start light with road-trip updates, St. Augustine impressions, and the very real struggle of finding a solid Mass while traveling, then pivot into the bigger themes that keep coming up for normal people trying to live faithfully and stay grounded in 2026. 

From there we get into platforms, incentives, and why “authenticity” is becoming the only thing that actually holds value online. We talk YouTube verification, the risk of building your life on an algorithm, and what happens when creators chase money, clicks, or trends instead of principles. If you’ve ever felt like GunTube or Catholic media is “dying,” we explain why it may be shifting instead and what that means for smaller creators who still want to say what they believe. 

Then we tackle the main topic: who’s showing up at ICE facility protests, how these groups can be more organized than people assume, and what names keep surfacing in open-source conversations. We discuss networks and organizations that get mentioned frequently, including the Socialist Rifle Association, Redneck Revolt, John Brown Gun Club, the Democratic Socialists of America, and other activist brands that function as recruiting, logistics, or political umbrellas. We keep it base-level and practical: what to watch for, why training matters, and why situational awareness beats doomscrolling. 

We wrap with listener Q&A on providing for a family on a modest income, the value of community, and practical gear talk like magazine bans, PDWs, and what “good enough” training standards look like.

Cold Open And Catching Up

SPEAKER_04 0:32

I always had a lot I always like looking at that when the rounds are coming in way too low. And they're coming out like the side of the barrel, like the bottom side of the barrel. It sounds about right. Man, you've had you've had a week, haven't you?

SPEAKER_00 0:48

Yeah, man. It's been interesting.

SPEAKER_04 0:52

I bet. So y'all didn't know that Rob was down in my neck of the woods last week. I was. But he didn't come through Alabama, though. No. But uh, we'll get him down here eventually. How'd you like St. Augustine?

SPEAKER_00 1:10

Uh it's it's a cool town. I like it a lot. You know, so many cities in the country are like just copy and paste versions of each other just in different areas. St. Augustine is just entirely different. You know, it feels like more like you're in Spain or something than in than in the US. Do you go to the fort? We drove by, we parked by. We only had three days there. Oh, yeah. We were there for about as long as we were driving. So we didn't go to the fort, we didn't even get a chance to see uh the shrine of Our Lady of La Leche. Yeah, but we went to the cathedral for mass, which was both awesome and a terrible mistake at the same time. Yeah, you know, like we get you get a venerated relic of Saint Augustine while also having boomers trying to literally physically push you to a Eucharistic minister, you know, extraordinary minister line for communion.

SPEAKER_04 2:07

Yeah, that's the one hard thing about traveling is finding a good mass. So it's come to us for now that when we travel, we travel and like the mass has to like it. We're going to where the mass is pretty much. So when we go down to the Gulf, we'll go to like Dustin or Pensacola because we get we know there's light masses down there. We don't go to like Orange Beach as much anymore because it's too far away. Because it's just not worth it. Dustin's got the SSPX down there, and then Pensacola has the Diocesan, and then there's an FSSP further into Pensacola, but it's too much of a drive. But you know, when we went to we went to Louisville for Christmas, and we got horn swoggled going up there because they showed a low mass at 8 30. Yeah, but it was low novice or novice

St Augustine Trip And Finding Mass

SPEAKER_04 2:55

or though. And uh, but they had a hot they had a high lat mass at like 10, but we had to we had to get to Lexington that day, so otherwise they'd we'd stayed for it. But we got in, like it was all in English. It's like, oh man, they got me.

SPEAKER_00 3:07

I did get to drive through the city of your birth on the way home at about 3 a.m. uh had to stop at a gas station. My uh my five-year-old made it his goal the whole trip to stop and poop in every gas station possible. I'm not joking, we're talking like at least 12 stops for him to try to poop at gas stations on the way home, and so of course Louisville 3M, you and it's like, oh, this is not a nice neighborhood.

SPEAKER_04 3:38

Yeah, that hospital curve, man, that'll get you. Like I've seen trucks jump over on hospital curve on 65. Yeah, man, it's it's just rough traveling because you really see like the worst masses possible. You do like the worst of what the mass it can be and is in a lot for a lot of people, which is makes me thankful that you know I have the mass that we have. But yeah, man, it's been it's been nothing but rain here for like a week, week and a half.

unknown 4:09

Really?

SPEAKER_04 4:09

It's not like light drizzle rain, it's like really, really hard rain, like torrential downpour rain. And it didn't help that my wife's van's front axle brakes weren't that great. And we like we we you know, we've been kind of pushing off getting them fixed, but it got to the point where I was like, Man, we gotta get these fixed one day. You're not gonna be able to press that pedal down hard enough and you're gonna slide into somebody.

SPEAKER_00 4:30

There was uh one big advantage of the road trip. We had to uh drive through areas that had that have tridentine beer. Yeah, of course. Yeah, yeah. So this is their boniface marzin style ale lager, I should say.

SPEAKER_04 4:48

Yeah, I keep trying to get him to send me some down here. He won't do it. Something about the law or something, he doesn't want to do it.

SPEAKER_00 4:58

Can you guys also not have wine from Requisant shipped?

SPEAKER_04 5:01

No, I can't.

SPEAKER_00 5:03

Yeah, so then it's definitely a legal thing.

SPEAKER_04 5:05

Yeah, it's Florida's for or Alabama for whatever reason. I read Florida's white knight's comment came up. Alabama for whatever reason doesn't like anything shipped here. Well, the other issue is here in Alabama is that the state has an iron like grip on all alcohol sales, so all you have to buy it through the state here. That's crazy. You know, when I came up to Minnesota, you know, four years ago, we went to Costco and and went to the liquor store, and I got like a 1200 milliliter bottle of Woodford for like 30 bucks. It was crazy. Down here, that's a 180 bottle.

SPEAKER_00 5:41

Really? Yeah, because of all the tax.

SPEAKER_05 5:44

Yeah, wow, yeah, it's bad.

SPEAKER_04 5:49

So, yeah, that's exactly what it is. We'll we'll make sure those those uh moonshiners still got some income coming in. And there's some I can't get here. There's there's a few that I want to do a few different bourbons and whiskeys. I want to try, like Highwire is one. There's Montana whiskey I want to try, or Wyoming whiskey, Wyoming whiskey, not Montana. But then I couldn't get Peerless here for the longest time. Peerless is a bourbon out of Kentucky that they have the oldest bourbon patent, and it was lost in the family for like a hundred years. And apparently it was put into a safe deposit box during the prohibition, and they forgot that in the pro the safety deposit box was lost, and then they finally found it, they reclaimed it, and so then they back, you know, 2013, they started making the the the bourbon again, but they couldn't they didn't have any they could sell till like 2019. I suppose because you had to age it, yeah, and but they got some now. But we I couldn't buy it here at all, I couldn't find it for the longest time. And so I the only time I could get it is if I went to Atlanta or if I went up to Tennessee and and get it. But I'm now starting to see it here, which is great because it's it's probably behind basil Hayden's is probably my favorite sipping whiskey.

SPEAKER_00 7:11

Basil Hayden's is my you know, like it's it's my go-to because one, you can find it almost anywhere. Two, it's not super, you know, it's not really expensive, but it's not cheap either. You know, so yeah, I love basil. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 7:27

So Ocean, this is this is what it looks like when you can find a woman and get children out of her and she homeschools. Maybe one day you'll be there too, buddy. One day. I don't I don't own any tweed whatsoever. I mean, I wouldn't even know where to get tweed.

SPEAKER_00 7:56

Wow, that's awesome. That's pretty awesome.

SPEAKER_04 8:01

Oh man, there's the origin of NASCAR. Have you ever been to Dollywood in Tennessee?

SPEAKER_00 8:07

Uh no.

SPEAKER_04 8:09

So they have like a virtual ride there, kind of like a Disney World with their virtual rides, but you're a moonshiner running from the law.

SPEAKER_00 8:17

That's cool. It is, it's pretty cool. When you know when we were in Charlotte because my flight was so much later in the day, me and my brother went to the NASCAR Hall of Fame that we didn't know was in Charlotte. Uh but uh yeah, they had their you know the virtual NASCAR race, which was fun to fun to do.

SPEAKER_04 8:36

Yeah, yeah. Dollywood has gotten huge now. Used to be it was like Gatlinburg, you but you paid to go in the Gatlinburg type of thing, just like to shop and hang out, whatever. But now it's like the South's you know, six flags. It's pretty cool. It's more of like a family six flags, you know. You go to six flags now and you gotta worry about all the scholars, yeah, and the joggers waffle soaking hennesy. Ocean never never changed.

SPEAKER_00 9:10

I can't even demon spell Hennessy right now.

SPEAKER_04 9:13

That's because spell check doesn't have Hennessy.

SPEAKER_00 9:16

That's so legit. I wouldn't expect anything else. Hennessy's not even a good cognac, let's be honest.

SPEAKER_04 9:27

You know, I've I've lived within an hour of Talladega for about four years, and I've never been. We got some parishers at our church who have like I guess they have season

Alcohol Shipping Laws And Bourbon Finds

SPEAKER_04 9:40

tickets or tickets for it every year, and they keep asking me to go. Well, they've asked me to go, they don't keep asking me, they've asked me to go a couple times. I was like, uh, I just don't think that's my thing.

SPEAKER_00 9:50

I don't think that's something. My dad was a mechanic for a for a his well, his best friend was a race car driver. My dad was his his mechanic, so they were more or less done with it by the time like I was born. But I remember going to a lot of like dirt track races, yeah. With my mom and dad, and my dad watched NASCAR every every Sunday. So even though I don't watch it now and really don't have much interest now, like yeah, it's still kind of a family tradition, so it was cool. Cool to go see the Hall of Fame in Charlotte.

SPEAKER_04 10:26

Yeah, there's a there's a gun store here, it's over in Weaver, Alabama, called Exile Armory. And they have a YouTube channel and they they post every day like new stuff they've got in that you can buy. And they're they're really cheap, man. Like all I they've got some fantastic deals on guns because they they depend on selling in quantity, not quite you know, and not trying to make a lot per gun. Right on selling like 100 guns, 200 guns a day or whatever. But and I would love to be sponsored them if they ever want to sponsor somebody. Uh just give me ammo. That's all I want. Just give me some ammo. But uh they they have a racing team and they they race over here at Talladega at the dirt track over here all the time, and they they you'll see it on their YouTube channel. They they'll show them racing around. And I think their daughter or somebody's racing too, and she's she can't be like more than a teenager, really.

SPEAKER_00 11:16

Yeah, the number of advertising the number of billboards I saw on the highway for gun stores as I drove down what is it, 75 or 95 in Georgia? I forget which one. 75, probably. Yeah, yeah. The number of advertisements for gun stores, like uh you know, largest gun store in Georgia, and then the next one was the second largest gun store in Georgia. And I'm like every time I'm like checking my watch, I'm like, Do we have time? No, we don't have time. Like, wait, why would it matter anyway? I can't buy it here. Yeah, you can't buy it. I mean, you could you couldn't just have it shipped to your I could have it shipped to an FFL, but I'm like, I don't have time for this.

SPEAKER_04 11:55

There's one there's one in Athens, Georgia, where the University of Georgia is called Clyde's Armory, and it is where so there the guy who owned it kept being harassed by the ATF and like the federal government for because he was just selling he was selling guns, he sells a lot of guns, yeah. And they kept harassing him, trying to get him closed down. So eventually he ran for Congress and won. So now he's a congressman in Georgia, and he owns a gun store. And he just ran because he got tired of being harassed. He's like, Well, I'm gonna live. And he did, he won. He was in Congress. I don't know if he still is, but he was.

SPEAKER_00 12:29

I did stop at my first Bucky's.

SPEAKER_04 12:32

Yeah, did you like the uh beef jerky wall?

SPEAKER_00 12:36

I didn't see the beef jerky wall, but I did get a brisket sandwich. Honestly, I wasn't all that impressed.

SPEAKER_04 12:43

Did you get the chopped or the sliced? The sliced. I mean, that's it's just a texture preference more than anything, but the the chopped is it.

SPEAKER_00 12:53

No, we were at 28 hours of driving in the vehicle at this point, and I had had a lot of different foods, and I was yeah, nothing was gonna taste all that great to me at that point in time.

SPEAKER_04 13:05

Yeah, yeah, that's the thing about Bucky's. Like it's one, the best thing about the Bucky's is the bathrooms. The bathrooms are immaculate, didn't even go in the bathrooms, dude. Man, they are super clean.

SPEAKER_00 13:18

I bought a Bucky's Hawaiian shirt though.

SPEAKER_04 13:20

Oh, yeah. But you can go in there and get anything. You can go in there and get you a knife and a Hawaiian shirt, a cooler, and a 12-pack of beer, and a lawn chair. Like, you can get anything there. You can they got hunting equipment, like it's everything there. It's wild. But like I have one right by my office here, and I don't go to it too much. Their gas is usually a little bit cheaper than most of the places around them, so I'll go there for gas. But I go in there, they never have deals on monsters though, not like pilot does. I go to Pilot and I'll get like three for like six bucks, right? Bucky's never has deals on it ever. So I don't know, I'm trying not to buy any there because I'm paying full price there. Why would I do that?

SPEAKER_05 14:02

Why?

SPEAKER_04 14:02

Right now. So when do have you have they reached out to y'all about getting you your 100,000 subs play button?

SPEAKER_00 14:11

Not yet. It takes them up to 10 days to verify because so you need the hundred thousand subs. So what they do is they go through all your subs and clean out any bots or inactive accounts, verify that you have a hundred thousand active subs. Yeah, but then you gotta make they check to make sure you don't have any active community strikes, that your content is original and is an AI generated. So it it they say it takes up to ten days to do all that, and then once they do that, they'll send you a redemption code to get up

NASCAR Stops And Talladega Stories

SPEAKER_00 14:45

the play button. Cool. Will you be able to both get one? I think we'll I we'll have to pay. Um I think for a second one, but yeah, we should be both able to get one. That'd be cool.

SPEAKER_05 14:58

That's like a little league trophy, but like right up there with like your little league, you know.

SPEAKER_00 15:03

Cost a lot more money than little league did. At least back when I played little league.

SPEAKER_04 15:09

All our little league trophies were free to us.

SPEAKER_00 15:12

Oh, I don't mean the I mean just the time and effort putting it. Yeah. Yeah. That's how often does the channel get purged from bots? We've never had a period where we've lost a ton from like a purge of bots or anything like that. Every once in a while, Anthony will say something on a show and we'll lose some from that show, but yeah.

SPEAKER_04 15:45

That uh like I keep expecting us to get a strike one day for something stupid, but I mean I don't care because like we're not monetized or anything, so it doesn't really bother me. Like if they kill the channel, we'll just do X only or something. Yeah, and the and the only reason we do YouTube because we more people will be able to see us, yeah. Um, then we'll get more traction with people. That's the only reason we're here. Otherwise, if I didn't worry about that, we would just be on Rumble or just be on X, because I can do a lot more there. But I've unfortunately we've got to tone it down for for YouTube so more people will see us. But which so when you had your show with Anthony the other day, I was talking through it to him throughout the day.

SPEAKER_00 16:27

That do you hear about that company that lost $500 million? Yeah, that was that was probably just Taffy.

SPEAKER_04 16:33

Yeah, it probably was probably just Taffy. Every one of those intro videos he does use like $500. But you know, just kind of what I was talking to Anthony about was because you we've talked, you know, you posted about it on X about everyone's talking about how like gun tubes dead and catholic tube is dead, and everything's you know, everything's dead. One, it's it is the algorithm, first of all. YouTube is shifting who they want to push now, but it's also people as I told Anthony, is is authenticity is going to be the future currency. Like it doesn't matter if you have a bad opinion, but as long as that's your opinion and you believe it and you're principled in believing it for whatever it is, that's what people care about. They want to make sure that you're authentic and you're not just shifting in the wind for whatever's happening, which I think where we've seen with Catholic YouTube and we've seen it with GunTube, is everyone shifted based on where the money is because they've made this their career, right? Like this is how they you know take care of their family in in some instances, which was stupid in the first place to ever do. Because you're always at the whim of a of an organization that will find any chance they can to get rid of you, like they don't need an excuse, right? They one strike and they'll get rid of you. Like I've seen a couple of gun tubes that have had no strikes, went from no strikes to three strikes in one day, because they just decided they want him around anymore. And so I don't know why anybody would put themselves and their sole income underneath a company that's willing to do that, especially when what you talk about and what you believe is against the current political and sociological zeitgeist.

SPEAKER_00 18:21

Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_04 18:22

There's there's nothing we talk about on this show that's that's the world likes whatsoever, right? And there's a lot of other shows that you know have one aspect of it, you know, and they'll get rid of them in any chance. So it just that that is pretty much what I was talking to about. Is and I was giving him some examples of what you brought up, but I just like how many times can you know? So I was going through my subscription on my YouTube because what I'll listen to YouTube when I'm you know doing stupid paperwork at you know at my job, or if I'm driving to my office, or if I'm working out, or whatever, and I need to clean up my subscription because I don't listen to any of those people anymore. Like I have like Tim Gordon subscribed, I don't listen to him anymore. One, he just his voice gets on my nerves now. But uh, but but it's not that it's him, and I agree with 95% of what he talks about, yeah. But I man, he just his mannerism about it that he goes about it is just very unappealing, right? You know, guys like that, or you know, a lot of these gun tubes I used to watch all the time. I don't like I'm at the point like I feel like Ron Swanson, like, I know more than you, like, why am I listening to you? Right, and it's just there's nothing like it. It really just comes down to I listened to y'all, I listen to Focus Trip Some, like he's kind of like background stuff because I tried to listen to his one he did the other day, and like halfway through the show, it became a like they were debating basically Christianity, and it was like 12 people, and it was just a crap show. I was like, okay, this is dumb, I'm gonna get rid of this. But I mean, I just don't listen to a lot at all. Like, I like the dirty civilian stuff, but some of the stuff they you can tell they're doing just for clicks. But but it's but it's their job, that's what they're trying to do. They have nothing else outside of that, which it's gonna bite them too. But it's just the it things are shifting, right? Things are especially in gun tube, it's shifting from gun reviews and meltdowns and gear reviews and all that, and it's it's slowly starting to shift to people who have excellent skills and how they got those excellent skills and trying to share that knowledge, and it's guys trying to share tactics on what to do and some stuff, and those are the guys you're gonna start seeing getting a lot more, but it's also a very

Gun Store Billboards And Buc-ee’s

SPEAKER_04 20:50

small market for that because you're gonna have new guys coming into the scene who are looking up, you know, the H HK VPN VP9 or something, like where the reviews on it, or what about the new Glock 43X, and like and they're gonna look for that stuff.

SPEAKER_00 21:05

Oh, I can't show that that's right, right.

SPEAKER_04 21:07

But they got still, but they're only gonna be there for so long because eventually they're just gonna get bored of that and move on, and they either start training or they don't, right? And so it it's just it I think things are just transitioning. I don't think it's dying, I think it's just changing. And I don't think it's gonna be as big, and it'll never be as big as it was during COVID. No, but it's things are just transitioning.

SPEAKER_00 21:32

And I I think I think the bit the biggest aspect of it is is what you said about YouTube changing about changing who what they're promoting, and it's not about even necessarily like suppression of certain topics or things, it's it's YouTube wants to be a competitor to to TV, to cable, to Netflix, to you, you know, they're they're gonna be pushing the the big production. you know, sort of stuff, and it's really not going to be a place for little guys anymore. You know, the algorithm isn't going to push, you know, someone with you know a few thousand subs, like like it, like it used to. You used to be able to get more views than subs you had.

SPEAKER_05 22:17

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 22:18

Now even the big guys, you know, get way less views than subs. It it's it it is weird. And I think YouTube's trying to figure it out because what they recommend me is not stuff I want to watch. It's like what whatever whatever whatever reason you have for thinking I want to watch this, you're wrong. And now I'm not going to watch anything because you pissed me off.

SPEAKER_04 22:38

Like yeah. Yeah I and there I've gotten to a point too as well where I can't okay Kennedy Hall's barely pulling 3,000 views because he shot himself in the foot with Peloton.

SPEAKER_00 22:54

That's his fault.

SPEAKER_04 22:56

Yeah that whole situation's I feel bad for some of those guys because they got sold a bill of goods by a guy that they thought was more than he was but some of them knew exactly warning them. Yeah yeah and they and not only that but when those guys that warned them decided not to go forward then that then Dan decided to badmouth those guys right and now they're finding out who Dan was so like it you know for whatever ill will they had toward y'all right like they need they probably need to apologize to y'all I mean should they I don't know maybe but I whatever whatever it's just I don't understand I I don't get the I don't know lack of prudence the lack of street smarts like what is it with with Trads and just faithful Catholics in general and being

YouTube Play Button And Platform Risk

SPEAKER_04 24:00

able to fall for just the most idiotic scams imaginable well so I can't remember who I was talking to but for we were kind of discussing something similar because I was talking about some some guys I know for whatever reason guys who are book smart guys who are spend a lot of time reading and researching they don't get a lot of time out in the world dealing with people so they don't know how to read like facial cues and and body language and in inflections in people's tone and and things so they don't really get those that social street smarts so they don't need they're not able to tell when someone's trying to get over one on them. For example so I was moving offices next month and I was uh moving into a bigger office and I went and uh talked to a guy about a lease and a building I wanted to be in and when I got and I looked at the office I was like oh this is great you know I just need you know do some stuff in here but this will be fine you know this will be I like the location it's like two blocks away from the cathedral so I'll be able to go to mass every day and go to confession whenever I want you know it'd be great but like something in the back of my mind was like just kind of like it it wasn't setting off alarms but it was like it was making me more reserved so I wasn't like just jumping on it as soon as I could I was like I'm gonna take my time with this my wife on the other hand she was there with me when we looked at it she came back and we were leaving and after I looked at it I said I was like I like the office I like how big it is I like the price whatever she's like something's off and I was like you know he's just I think the guy was just socially awkward or whatever you know she's like okay you know whatever so anyway I go to sign the lease and you know I give my check for the deposit and two days later the guy texts me back he's like hey so about your office we actually need three months deposit and the rent's fifty dollars more a month and I was like well I already signed the lease and that's not what the lease said what what do you want me to do? I'm not paying you extra money for a lease that you're now you know legally bound to and he's like ah well we're just not gonna execute the lease then you know if you're not able to do it like all right bye fine okay fine yeah okay like you you don't understand the market my man like commercial real estate is dying yeah four fifths of your building is empty you need me more than I need you like I'll find another office don't worry about it but my wife was like I told you something was up I was like well you know you you your senses were good which is why I married you right but uh but it's just you know just that little little tingle in the back of your head when you're dealing with people you give you like you just to give you a little bit of pause to like okay I need to really pay attention now because something seems off right a lot of guys don't have that because they don't deal with people all they deal with but is books and people on a 2D screen they don't know how to to to really interpret those different cues that they receive like Cavassos right like thankfully he now his is a little better because he got before a lot of the some of those guys are still in which is crazy to me Dr. K yeah I think Jim Flanders is going down with the boat I don't think he has a choice because he's with meaning of Catholic it well Peter 5's not doing anything and like he's he's just he's gonna go down with the ship he's gonna have to go back to sell an insurance here soon well catholic family news though those guys too like like there was originally there was talks of Pelican just buying Catholic family news outright but I think they waited for it to fail and then just hired the call and and and Rundis but like if Pelican fails there is no Catholic family news at anymore at this point you know so yeah so the the good thing with the Peter Kosnevsky is his audience isn't through social media it's through his books and his talks that are on other people's channels so he's not like he ever really uh had a big channel that he made money on see uh he made money on a sub stack he's got a lot of sub stacks but his substack's still there right because he and it wasn't supposed to be yeah well maybe he got an exception you know which is probably the only reason he's still there because he doesn't he doesn't need them the money from them yet I guess but you know the other guys it's it's not gonna be good a lot of those guys are going down with the ship yeah when everything's said and done because they there's no way I mean who was it Nick said they laid off a bunch of like the social media team and stuff the other day yeah and all the editors and stuff like that which was the about the only about the only reason it we wanted to join is like you know if if someone else was able to create thumbnails and and do edits and clips and like that's a lot of work off of well not so much Anthony but off of me yeah yeah you know in it well I'm not a pro at this I'll never be a pro at this yeah but um why should you be you've got another job right this is not your income right so why should you be a pro like i we know we you and I doing this show this is just for fun like we're you I'd have no grand scheme of ever turning this into a career I don't want to if this in fact if this thing gets more than 10 000 subs I'll probably delete the channel and start over like I have no desire to be big whatsoever my goal is just to spread as much information as I can that I know and bring on guys who have more information than I do to be able to spread it to y'all and have fun while we're doing it. That's the my entire goal you know I got at least at least once a month I ask myself you know like if I wanted to am I still at the point where I would walk away from avoiding Babylon in a heartbeat if it if if I felt it was you know a net negative in my life and so far every month I'd be like yeah I drop it I would text Anthony right now and be like I'm done and you know what yeah I'd lose out on money but it's I've always seen it as just an extra income stream it's never I've never you know it's never become a necessity and I don't ever want it to be because I want to be able to drop it whenever yeah I get it you know it is it it it you have to be able to walk away from it because one this will suck your soul out yeah right because the you know you'll pay attention to social media too much you'll get embroiled in too many online arguments for no reason and it it will absolutely just destroy you if you let it right you know which I think you know you and Anthony and have have a good grounding in the fact that you have careers that you know that you can always go back to if you know and get rid of this and you know you get rid of whatever it is you know a couple grand a month that y'all are getting that's really just your gun money anyway but uh then that's that that's what I've used it for I've used it for basically our hobbies you know our interests like yeah it buys hope in the kids aquariums and fish and it buys me and it buys me guns you

Why Authenticity Beats Chasing Clicks

SPEAKER_04 31:30

know yeah and that's it yeah yeah when and so aunt woke me up yesterday no wednesday did we do the show Wednesday I forget whatever day we did the last show like aunt woke me up with a phone call I was napping I was about to go to bed because I was so tired from the drive and I just wanted to tell him to screw off dude like no I'm done I'm not doing it I bet but you came on anyway I did because I can't know I've been told last night yeah that'd have been too much uh this is funny the the Arch Davies asking if they if Pelicans got the Gen Xers making the thumbnails and what's funny is you can see a difference in the thumbnails since they fired they got rid of the guys yeah yeah what and what it like if you were to walk away for from avoiding Babylon for whatever reason all it is you would just get your time back like how much of your week you probably get 10 hours a week back right 20 to 30 actually you think that much bam yeah so you're basically you're basically working for like $10 an hour when you're doing a b not really because I let's say I work half you know I let's say I work a halftime job at A B okay you know 20 hours compared to 40 hours I make about half with a b than what I do through my full time job.

SPEAKER_00 33:10

So I'm really making the same dollar per hour as I do at my day job.

SPEAKER_04 33:14

Let's do the math in this you work 80 hours a month on A B.

SPEAKER_00 33:19

Okay I'm going to assume because I think y'all said it before but I'm gonna assume you you probably bring in roughly what two a month from it this year for it let's say if we do the next year 12 months from now you'll probably average out 3600 a month each yeah okay yeah you're looking at about 45 bucks an hour that's not bad I mean and before taxes before taxes well that's that's actually the best part because we have the avoiding babylon LLC which is owned by my S Corp and his S Corp and because we expend so much you know like my internet service well that's a business expense you know part of my rent renting out this office space for myself business expense like yeah we'd still technically put more money in than the profit we pull out so it's actually a bit a tax break too yeah uh I was telling Anthony he was like uh he was talking about money whenever I was like your first mistake was going into business with an accountant he knows where to hide the money I bet I I was I don't I was like I bet you would be getting way more if he was just some dumb guy you didn't know but he's he's got money on in the Cayman Island somewhere we so I invested pretty heavily at the beginning anthony did not but he's he's doing so now but like so I have two led studio lights that total were like 800 bucks that I got when we first started computer stuff I probably have nine to ten grand in computer stuff on the desk in front of me yeah so I mean overall I how much is we definitely the can oh the the cameras cheap oh yeah because I I don't use a you know I don't use like an SLR or anything no it's it's it's like a 300 webcam okay it doesn't look it I know it's uh it it does a good job but street it'd be different if we were recording everything right and then like uploading it to YouTube because you could do 4K then yeah and then I would need uh you know a a really high-end camera and stuff but or with with stream yard in live you wanted people to see like the acne marks and the no no with with but with streaming in general and especially through stream yard like you're limited to 1080 so you don't need something super fancy that was the worst thing when like 1080 came out and then in the 4K and you started seeing people's like imperfections like and then I started thinking do I look like that is that what I look like because I'm not rich they're rich so they can do something about it I'm poor is that what I look like do I look that bad why didn't y'all tell me if I I'm like I I'm probably gonna reorganize the the look a little just because it's been a while and Ann just redid his I really don't like the safe right behind me but I I can't move that thing is not I had no idea it was a safe really right there I have no idea I just see a purple blob in the back that's my big gun safe yeah I had no idea it was a safe I see your bookshelf back there yeah but I only know that's a bookshelf because I've seen you walk back to it during a show or I've seen it from when you post pictures with stuff on it. Yeah yeah that that purple thing in the background does not look like a safe so I might reorganize things but like for me I guess I'd rather if I were gett put more money it'd be in more in the audio yeah what if Rob I invest nothing I have a computer I know that's not true I bought a I bought a a microphone for like a hundred bucks like this thing. So like that's it. I mean that's basically what Anthony did until he just redid the studio.

SPEAKER_04 37:39

Yeah there's no there's no reason for me to be any more than that. I mean I have an old GoPro I use you know but I've had that thing for five years. It is okay you know but I'm just using my webcam right now. I'm in the house today my my wife and my girls are at Camp Tekawita they are at my girls are in American Heritage Girls and so they're camping and canoeing and all that stuff and I better hat I bet my wife is hating it usually I'm not gonna say she's not big into like outdoor stuff she doesn't like bugs and Alabama has lots of bugs. Yeah lots of them so but she but I will say she will put up with that stuff to see our kids have a good time. Whatever it is but uh so I'm at home today with my boy he's he's with me all weekend just me and him he's got his little league teams in the playoffs tomorrow so we got that tomorrow morning and then I don't know what I'm gonna do with him rest of the we'll probably just come home and throw the ball or something but I might take him shooting we'll see I have to I have to wash the van after the uh the trip it looks like world war three between mosquitoes and dragonflies happen on the front of the van because that thing is nine feet tall so it catches everything do you have a hard time going through drive throughs can't yeah well they usually they're like eight and a half feet is the clearance right on some of most drive throughs are nine feet our van official height is eight feet eleven inches so theoretically could I get it through some most drive throughs maybe I'm not risking especially when it's it's the top of our van isn't just the roof the top of the van is actually a separate AC unit for the back that is probably five grand to replace so no yeah I don't blame you I would I wouldn't risk it either in Louisville right next to the University of Louisville there's a road that goes under a railroad right and it says clearance like 13 and a half feet I cannot tell you how many semis have smashed into that thing the semis that are 14 feet tall yeah yeah yeah every single like you know coke goes through there I've seen those and cokes everywhere because they're doing like 40 miles an hour they hid that thing it shears off like the top six inches you know there's everything things everywhere chicken trucks coming through chickens everywhere and this is downtown Louisville like this is that's amazing it's it's a it's wild how often that happens oh man yeah we might have uh we might have jumped the gun on the trad van but i'll tell you one thing it was the perfect vehicle for that road trip i bet it really you like being able to stand up in the back at you know as as the other driving stand up and stretch fully was was awesome yeah absolutely did do y'all have like a tv or something in it the kids can watch no we might the kids get too motion sick as it is yeah where like they were drugged up on dramatine on the way down like there's no way I'm gonna put a video screen back there that's about the only time our kids watch TV is in the van on the way to places because we don't really watch it at the house but we drive around too much because they get their fill we listened to the the Narnia series that's fun on the way down you also do the Lord of the Rings series by Andy Circus I have but I never read or never read any CS Luce at all so the wife convinced me to do that on the way down yeah the the Lord of the Rings series by Andy Circus is phenomenal it's the absolute best reading of that of those books whatsoever especially when it gets in the column you're like hey this sounds familiar yeah right I think he did did he do the Silmarillion too for him I don't know maybe or what did I think I listened to the Silmarillion read by Christopher Lee now that was good did you ever see the interview that Christopher Lee had and it was about the scene when hit when Saruman was killed oh yeah how he told them that's not how that's not how I guess that's not how it's that's not how it's yeah it sounds with someone's next lit or whatever yeah and they're like what he's like because those of you don't know Christopher Lee was he was in the precursor of the sas right yeah did you know he's also a descendant of Charlemagne yep the the man is amazing the man is he's not just count dooku like he's he's actually something he's actually done some stuff with his life yeah I guess we should probably get to our topic I mean we are 44 minutes in we haven't had a show in like two weeks it has been a while it's been a while so that's that's probably what all this is and everybody's like

Office Lease Red Flags And Street Smarts

SPEAKER_04 43:00

well I can't believe these guys are actually on that is true everyone is a descendant of Charlemagne. So it was funny when I was doing our family tree and I was going back and looking at stuff and I was realizing the only reason I know these people and the only reason we know that who their children are is because they were important people so people kept track of them right kept track of their lineage so everyone today just about anyway is going to have someone in their past who was someone of importance because that's otherwise you wouldn't you'd have no idea like of my of my four grandparents two of them can trace descent to Henry the second of the platogenet dynasty and two of them which are actually the same two can also trade descent to canute the King Canute the Great yeah so but like you said that's everyone can at some point I was uh when I did my And I found that. Yeah, I agree. I agree.

SPEAKER_00 44:19

I don't know if it's the Canute that's a saint or not. Might be.

SPEAKER_05 44:26

Hannibal. Isn't Hannibal from Africa?

SPEAKER_00 44:29

Well Hannibal was a Carthaginian, so he's really like a Phoenician. So yes, Northern Africa. Yeah, but he's not like sub-Saharan Africa.

SPEAKER_05 44:37

He's not sub-Saharan African, like okay.

SPEAKER_04 44:40

Those people can't even get out of their own way. They're not leaving the continent unless someone takes them. All right, let's get into the topic.

ICE Facility Protests Spark The Main Topic

SPEAKER_00 44:55

Uh so yeah, please.

SPEAKER_04 45:01

Oh my gosh. So the reason I wanted to go over this because every every time we do a show, Rob texts me, he's like, Hey, we wanna go over. And sometimes I have something. Something like, oh man, we're gonna talk about this. But sometimes I'm like, I have no idea. Like, what are we gonna talk about?

SPEAKER_00 45:19

Like, I want to talk about you because I also have no idea.

SPEAKER_04 45:23

Yeah, it's sometimes it's hard to figure out what you want to talk about. Um but uh I did want to go over like what were the best ways to like ambush and kill an alien because like the aliens.gov was supposed to go live last night and it's it was just about illegal immigrants, which is awesome. But uh I was gonna say it.

SPEAKER_02 45:39

But if this whole thing is is a big rug pull, man, that would be so awesome.

SPEAKER_00 45:46

I'm not even mad, I'm impressed.

SPEAKER_04 45:49

That would be so awesome. But so last night at Delaney Hill in New Jersey, they had another protest outside of an ice facility. And there's it's the remember, it's getting warm. It's it's it's war season, right?

SPEAKER_00 46:09

For those of you who can't see, I am currently sweating right now.

SPEAKER_04 46:14

I can't tell. But I mean, you are glistening a little bit, but uh that's just normal.

SPEAKER_00 46:20

It's not the camera guys.

SPEAKER_04 46:22

But so they started attacking the ice again last night and making verbal threats, like because the if I if y'all have noticed ice is starting to wear masks now, uh, and they're required to wear masks, and because what's happening is they're being identified, and much like the cartels do, they're going after their families, yeah, harassing their families, so they're having to wear masks. And so one of the protesters last night made the comment that I've seen your face, I'm going after your family now, right? So that made me remember like me, like who are these people, right? Who where do they come from? Where who's organizing them? How do they know to go after specific facilities or whatever, right? So I kind of wanted you just do like a base level, like who are these people, first of all. So, for those of y'all that may not know, I used to do some side work for Mike Shelby at Forward Observer. I did his low-intensity conflict report basically for him, provided him the information on any way he would put it in the report. Mike Shelby is knows more, he's forgotten more than I know about this whole situation. But I being in my previous life in the Marines, I used to deal with this stuff all the time as well, doing a link analysis between people. But I kind of want to go over like a base level of who we're dealing with.

SPEAKER_00 47:39

I'm so glad you're way more prepared for this than I am.

SPEAKER_04 47:43

Well, I knew you're gonna come in, coming in tired, and you were basically just gonna fill in the the uh dead air when I was having to take a drink. Yep.

SPEAKER_05 47:50

I see this is why it works this works well.

SPEAKER_04 47:56

So I'm going to do did you get the notes on the for the show?

SPEAKER_00 48:01

I mean, I'm sure I have them, but I did not look at them, no. But I do have them all, yes.

SPEAKER_04 48:10

So I'm dealing with a new setup here in the house. I wonder if I can share it myself. Holy crap, you really are prepared for this. Here we are.

SPEAKER_00 48:22

Armed queers.

SPEAKER_04 48:23

Oh, sounds like that's one group we're gonna be talking about. The armed queers of Salt Lake City.

SPEAKER_05 48:29

They're just the Mormons, somewhat, bam, yeah, good. Hello. Oh, I hate summer later. X.

SPEAKER_04 48:45

All right, let's see. Where did you go? There we are. Sorry, guys, I'm dealing with a new system here. And wow, it was not gonna let me do that over there. I'm gonna do it over here. Cancel and do this. I have visuals, guys. I have visuals. So y'all don't have to just hear my pretty voice.

SPEAKER_00 49:10

Oh, I actually see where you're clicking right now.

SPEAKER_04 49:12

Do you?

SPEAKER_00 49:13

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 49:14

Is it sharing it to everybody? Is it sharing to you?

SPEAKER_00 49:17

No, I mean I I'm in the notes app and I can see what you're clicking on in there. Why is that not?

SPEAKER_04 49:31

What did it pull up? Did it pull up on nope? Did it pull up on safari? Yeah, I pulled up on stupid safari. Nobody likes safari. Let's do this.

unknown 49:48

Alright.

SPEAKER_04 49:49

I'm gonna get it eventually, I promise.

SPEAKER_00 49:53

I trust you, Adrian. I trust what the hell do you know?

SPEAKER_05 49:58

Here we go. Alright. I'm gonna now. Here we go. Alright.

SPEAKER_04 50:03

So there we go. There we go. So this is from last night. That's the gentleman with the the nice uh Hold on, hold on.

SPEAKER_00 50:14

Did you want to put that up on the screen? Why? What? Do you want to put it on the stream? I thought I did. No, it's not. Oh. There we go. I just didn't know if you were ready because I'm ready.

SPEAKER_04 50:32

Okay. So this is this is from last night. These are the Antifa who are. I'm not gonna do the sound because you don't read it. But that gentleman right there with his nice uh science class glasses there.

SPEAKER_00 50:42

Um you can enlarge the video.

SPEAKER_04 50:46

You know, that light. But it doesn't sound too, and he just he says some naughty words. But it you'll notice all the ice are masked. The only ones that aren't are the guys who aren't ice. This guy's mask got removed, but they're and he's the one they were threatening that they're gonna go after his family. Okay, so let's stop sharing. Go back. So that's one. So that's just from last night.

SPEAKER_00 51:20

That was Antifa.

SPEAKER_04 51:21

That was Antifa. Let me show you another view from it last night, and I want to point out some things from this one. Oh, it's still showing the same one in it.

SPEAKER_05 51:32

Let's do that.

SPEAKER_02 51:38

All right, where to go? There we go.

SPEAKER_04 51:51

I use Brave browser now and it keeps wanting to put everything in Safari, which is a pain in the butt. I try not to use Safari for anything anymore because it's horribly you have a Mac. Alright, this is it.

SPEAKER_07 52:07

So

Antifa Medics Training And Coordination

SPEAKER_07 52:10

I can talk to you however because I can talk to you however I think I want.

SPEAKER_04 52:20

Alright, so y'all can see that, right? Yep. This guy is an hesitator. This is a woman.

SPEAKER_06 52:29

Mama being racist. Okay, and I can remember. I can talk to you, I'm remembering my woman. What's up? What's up? You want to push my yes, come on, come on, come on. I'm getting I'm getting racist.

SPEAKER_04 52:52

Alright, so he got sprayed. Now watch what happens. Immediately he's got a medic coming up, getting him out of the area, and is gonna start providing him with aid to get this the OC spray off his face. That that is leagues better than what Antifa was doing six years ago during the summer of love. Right now, they were really good then too, but they're even better now. They have the organization, they have the skills, they provide training, right? These are people, keep in mind, they don't have jobs, so they can do this stuff, right? Those of you and you and I, we have to go out and work, and then if we want to train for things, like go to the range for like an hour a week just to practice shooting, right? That's time away from our families. These people don't have families, mostly, right? And if they did have families, they're probably neglecting them then anyway.

SPEAKER_00 53:59

But and the training is provided to them free of charge, yeah. Whereas us gotta pay out the butt if we want any sort of training.

SPEAKER_04 54:10

The no none of these medics are trained, these are guys who just see the cause as bigger than themselves, and the cause for them is you know anti-fascism and and taking down the system and installing a communist government, right? But within seconds of that guy getting sprayed in the face, he had a medic on him to help him wash it off, right? So I just I wanted to show that as an example so y'all could see how quick that was. Right, these people are not disorganized, these people are not going to be a pushover. These people are are we need to take them seriously. Their end game is to install a communist government and the collapse of the current system. That is their goal, overarching goal, to to make it as bare bones as possible, right? And we'll we'll get in some more here in a minute. The Hispanic Senate guy was Antifa, or he was at least an ally of Antifa. He may not be officially an Antifa member, but he was there supporting Antifa. All right, so then let me get into so first organization I want to introduce y'all to is I hate that it automatically opens in Safari. All right, first one we'll open introduces y'all to is so the Socialist Rifle

Socialist Rifle Association Overview

SPEAKER_04 55:36

Socialist Rifle Association. Okay, let me share that. All right, so the Socialist Rifle Association, the current estimated membership in the United States is at least 10,000. Right, so this is one of the biggest groups I used to report on for Mike Shelby at Ford Observer. They provide a lot of training, they provide a lot of equipment, uh, they pull up provide a lot of assistance to things, to activities, to protests. They also do a lot of community events. Like they do what it was called a brake light clinic where they'll pay for and repair people's brake lights because brake lights are usually the biggest thing that gets people pulled over. But they do a lot in the community, but they also provide a lot of training. Soldiers Life Rifle Association members have been known to go and trade and train in Kurdistan with the Kurds, especially with the Peshmerga. They have been known to be involved in a lot of domestic terror attacks as well.

SPEAKER_00 56:55

A lot of the Kurds were actually supported by the Soviets, right?

SPEAKER_04 57:01

So I'm my butt, my boy's going to sleep saying goodnight to him real quick.

SPEAKER_00 57:06

But what was that? The Kurds, not not all of all of it, or all of them, but a lot of them were supported by the Soviets. Yes. Against Turkey and Iraq and Syria and all of that.

SPEAKER_04 57:24

And that right now, especially with what's going on in Iran, there's a big push for Kurdistan to have its own territory, which would mean that if Kurdistan were to have its own territory, a lot of these socialist rifles, the SRA, I'm just gonna say SRA because I'm tired of saying the whole thing. SRA are going to more than likely seek dual citizenship so they have somewhere to escape to in case they need it. Let me pull up another one from them.

SPEAKER_05 57:57

Oh yeah, I shared. I'm gonna do it, pull up another one.

SPEAKER_02 58:01

Let me all right.

SPEAKER_00 58:07

So the SRA has been around for a while.

SPEAKER_04 58:10

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 58:11

Okay.

SPEAKER_04 58:12

So some of the things I want to show you is one, this is one out of Minneapolis, up near your neck of the woods. So if we look at some of the equipment they have, you know, they they love Soviet block of firearms for whatever reason, but some of them have more up-to-date, more AR-15, right? He's got a this guy in the back in the right, has got a plate carrier with it looks probably six mags, maybe, on it. There's a guy in the front left that's sitting in the chair with the the he's got a can on his. Here, I'll show it here in a second. This representative more of what they've got. You know, some of them are out of shape, some of them are probably decent shape, some of them are you know, just never done much more. But if you'll see here, this guy's obviously got a can on his. Yeah, a huge flashlight on his hand.

SPEAKER_00 59:08

Can old weapon light, but yeah, but it still works, yeah, yeah, still does what he wants it to do.

SPEAKER_04 59:15

It just shows like some of the people they follow and all that. But these are people are not who are you know running around with a 22 that their grandpa gave them or a shotgun or whatever. They're they're out training with not all of them, but some of them are out training with weapons that you and I would have. Firearms that you and I would have. Probably firearms you and I have. Probably. They are also receiving training from former special forces guys that align with their thinking. Like they're getting good training. This is not these these guys are not unprepared whatsoever. Let me do. I got one more on the social rifle association.

SPEAKER_00 59:54

I imagine they probably follow local gun laws at about the same rate as our side, right? They don't want to get arrested for breaking gun laws or anything like that.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:11

So this is a report, and I mean I can send this out to anybody who wants on zero heads, you can find it. But the SRA has boasted that they have over 10,000 members at this point, which is probably lowballing it. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they have double that. And keep in mind, this is just one organization. We're we're about to do a few more, uh, but this is just one of them that's out there. And when we get into some others, some others have experienced and have been involved with some more recent attacks lately. Uh, so the next one I want to show you, we're gonna get into redneck revolt. Redneck revolt

Redneck Revolt And John Brown Clubs

SPEAKER_04 1:00:50

revolt used to be a they're kind of a break off from the Ellen Fork John Brown Club, and they've kind of created their own thing. They mostly target rural white areas and in terms of recruiting or as far as recruiting. They they try to find disenfranchised rural white people to add to their ranks, right? They've been involved in almost every protest in the south against ICE. They've they're really well involved with mostly your your southern states, and they provide a lot of training to buddy. I can't read that. They provide a lot of training to other organizations as well, but they've become much more guerrilla tactic focused lately. Keep in mind a lot of these groups are no longer on the internet since Trump came back into power. They're just not they they've because they've mostly been targeted for domestic terrorism. You can't find them online anymore. They all their web pages have have gone away, all their you know, signal groups, telegram chats, all that are gone. If you want to talk to them, you basically have to do it in person now, uh, which is real hard unless you want to out yourself to them. But they're not doing a whole lot of social media engagement anymore, especially since the Trump administration came back into power. And I got one more on redneck revolt. Let me pull it up.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:51

Wait, did you did you do a video of your shoot shooting your P38? Is it on the telegram?

SPEAKER_04 1:03:04

So this guy is a professor at UNC. He's a member of Redneck Revolt, and uh he's been uh he's he's been involved in Antifa as well, uh, but he's been involved with he was at Charlottesville as well, involved there. So this is a professor who's being paid, according to state records, from the state, and is used to turn around and protest protesting against the same state that he's being paid by. So these people are everywhere. You now we know they're probably gonna be more in the academia than other areas, like you're you're not gonna see very many plumbers who are redneck revolt, right? Because they just don't have time. But professors got a lot of time. All right, we got any questions on anything, real quick. Some of these names are ironic, right? Right, like Gen Z and Gen Alpha love irony, for you know, and which means you like you can never tell what they actually think because they're not serious half the time. But so when we get in, you know, the Socialist Rifle Association is who they say they are. Redneck Revolt was just more of a way to try and co-opt the title of Redneck, pretty much. We'll get into one here in a minute. It's called the Armed Queers of Salt Lake City. That's a fun one.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:41

Captain Rex is glad I finally got you guys live. Listen to the podcast every week and love the show. Do you guys have time for an off-topic question? And the answer is yes, obviously, of course. Always. We spent 45 minutes getting to the topic. Definitely have time for a question.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:59

Look, look, y'all need to understand Rob and I's relationship. We just send IG reels to each other all day. That's usually you know not appropriate for work, not at all whatsoever. And occasionally I'll send them something where I'm critiquing somebody or making fun of somebody else. But that's about it, right? So when we get on screen, this is about the only time we actually talk.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:22

Yeah, Adrian's either sending me reels, bad mouth and Gordon or Wagner, or that's really about it.

SPEAKER_04 1:05:32

Look, I'm you know, I'm a man of simple tastes.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:35

You are who you are.

SPEAKER_04 1:05:38

All right, this next one we're gonna talk about is John Brown Gun Club.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:43

You want to explain who John Brown was? You're the history buff, let you do it. So John Brown was a radical abolitionist prior to the Civil War. Super radical, to the point where he basically led a slave revolt and attack on. On an armory, right? And ended up killing a bunch of civilians and ended up getting was he killed in the battle, or did they capture him and hangu captured and hanged? Yeah. Yeah. Very not that communism was really per se a thing yet, right? I don't think Marx had written the communist manifesto at that point, but many of his economic beliefs would and could be described as communist leading as leading as well.

SPEAKER_04 1:06:32

So

Can You Provide On 40K

SPEAKER_04 1:06:35

this is a good question. I'm 25 and hoping to court a woman for my chapel, but I'm sure if 40,000 is enough to provide, especially with high rent costs, etc. Mentioned 35k was enough, Mortitos would be great. So keep in mind the younger you are, the easier it is to get by with less money. Right. So it depends on where you live.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:07:03

You know, with 40,000 in downtown Atlanta is not going to do you well, right? But if you don't mind living in outs outlying counties and don't mind commuting in if that's where your job goes, then you have to then you have to weigh the cost of fuel and such. It is not impossible to sort support a family on 35,000. You just have to really prioritize and budget and take advantage of things that may require you to humble yourself. Right. We have here in Alabama, we have certain church organizations that if you have more than four children at all, they don't care what your income is, they will provide you with food. That you just come by and you pick up, they'll give you boxes of food. So if you want to keep your groceries down, you can but you have to humble yourself to do that. Right? You have to know that I'm not, you're not going to, you know, you're going to buy probably a five thousand dollar car and you're going to have to learn how to fix it yourself. Right. Because in order for you to have nice things, you're going to have to learn how to do some stuff.

unknown 1:08:04

Right.

SPEAKER_04 1:08:05

You're going to have to know that, hey, you're probably not going to get a new phone every three years. Right. You're probably going to have the same phone for five, six, seven years. It's probably going to use be when be used when you get it. That's okay.

unknown 1:08:16

Right.

SPEAKER_04 1:08:16

You don't need that stuff. Because if you can get used to living on less money now when you're young, when you get 30, 35 years old and you're making a little bit of money and you've got a little bit of money you can put away, it's easier for you to do that and not to adjust up your living with your new income. And then at that point, you can start putting some money in savings and you have a little bit of a cushion, you can do something with it. If you don't have a skill that gives you the capability to make more money, you need to, on your off time when you're young, go and learn a skill. And maybe it's for a side job, right? Maybe you know, right now you're doing, I don't know, you're an auto mechanic. If you can learn to weld and do fabrications, that's only gonna get you hired on to even better places.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:03

That and fifteen hundred dollars in rent, like there are places in the country you can make the amount the amount of money you're making now, you know, pretty easily at any job and pay half that in rent. Like, I like for our four-bedroom 2,500 square foot house, we pay $850 in rent a month. Now we live in a town of 1,500 people on the edge of one of the largest wilderness areas of the country, and it where you know the whole town's economically depressed because of the lack of mining, and there's literally the best place to get food in town is the gas station. In the grocery store, you know, you got one grocery store in a Dollar General, you have to drive 45 minutes to get to a Target or Walmart or McDonald's. So there's downsides, don't get me wrong. But you can work at the gas station full-time, make $35,000, $40,000 and pay $800 in rent for a house. But like I said, there are downsides.

SPEAKER_04 1:10:12

Yeah. And it may require you to move, like you may have to move to West Virginia for a better tax rate and better rent and just to compute a little bit more. You know, I'm I'm not one to encourage people to move for you know a 10% bump in salary. I'm not one of those guys. I've got guys here that I, you know, clients of mine who you know that I help that you know, they're like, hey, you know, I've got a job offer in Arizona and it's 10-50 more than I do, you know, that I make now. Do you think that's a good move? No, it's not. You've got community here, community that does things for you that you you have to pay for when you go to Arizona. Like your mom and your dad are here, and your brothers and sisters who are older and out of the house, too. Like, so if you need childcare here, you've got family that can help if something happens. You move out to Arizona, you've got to pay for that. Now that 10-15% is gone. Not only that, but now your cost of living's higher. I'm not I'm not a guy that's going to encourage you to always chase the money, but be prudential about what you're doing.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:17

And you you make a good point about community. Like, yeah, you could you could move where to where I live and have your rent cut in half, but I also don't have any sort of like traditional chapel anywhere within a few hours of me. I have no real Catholic community around me. Would I be willing to make a fair amount of sacrifice to have what you have? Yeah, potentially, you know. So it like everything in life, it's a trade-off. So maybe you are better off where you are with that community. Because I'd love to have that for my kids.

SPEAKER_04 1:11:51

You may be in a situation now where there's this young lady that you're you know wanting to start a life with, maybe y'all both work for right now, but you learn to live on one income and you put the other one away.

unknown 1:12:03

Right?

SPEAKER_04 1:12:04

You learn to live on your income and the other and hers you put away until y'all have a child, and then she stays home, and now you've got a nest egg put away for a long time, you know, based on what however long it you know she was able to put money away, right? That's I know plenty of people have done that. Like, I would rather she get used to being a stay-at-home mom if that's what y'all want to happen. Because that when you cooperate with God's order, he's going to bless you. Right? His order is you are the provider, you are the protector, and she is the homemaker. My wife knows she is the heart of this home. When things affect her, it affects everyone else in this home. So my job is to make sure as little affects her as possible, right? So my job is to make sure that she knows when she goes to the grocery store, she needs to use her card for whatever it is, it's not gonna deny her. Yeah, she's gonna know that hey, when she gets in that car, the gas ferry showed up the night before, and all of a sudden she's got a full tank, right? She doesn't have to work even though she definitely left it on empty every time. She absolutely left it on empty. If I know anything, when I get my my wife's car, it's on empty. I don't care when it is, I don't care what day it is, I don't care the last time I got in the car, it's gonna be on empty when I get in that car, and I go fill it up for her, right? Because I don't want her, especially nowadays, I don't want her going into the gas station by herself because I don't trust anybody, right? So that's your job is to be able to provide that for her. So in the meantime, if y'all both need to work, that's fine. But when y'all start having kids, she needs to stay home because God's gonna bless you, and you're just you're just gonna make it worse on yourself if you make her continue to work.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:45

I I yeah, I guess my biggest advice is just just go for it, right?

SPEAKER_04 1:13:52

Just do it, you'll figure it out, and man, have as many kids as you can. Yes, as quick. I'm telling you, man, like I only have four kids, and I would give anything to have you had three. I have four, two girls and a boy. Three girls and a boy, okay. Um, I would give it anything to have more kids, and we just it's it's biologically impossible for us. My wife's had complications the past couple of ones, and she almost died from the last two, so we couldn't have any more, but I would kill to have more kids. I've never met anybody, especially anybody who actually loves their family, who has said, you know what, we probably shouldn't have had that last kid. Yeah, that was a little too much. We probably shouldn't have done it, right? The only people that do that are people on welfare, but we're people that end up with a kid named Anthony.

SPEAKER_00 1:14:46

You know what? That Anthony shouldn't have had that one.

SPEAKER_04 1:14:52

How did we we should have known we would have had one like that? But it's just have as many as you kids as you can because every kid you have makes your life better. And if you have a kid with Down syndrome, I cannot express to you how much how lucky you are if you have a chill, child with Down syndrome. Every client I have who has a child with Down syndrome are the most joyful people I know. Like, they don't care about anything, nothing affects them. All they care about is their family, their children, and getting to heaven. Like, they there's no materialism involved with them whatsoever. Down syndrome children brings your camera, just zoomed in on you. But down syndrome children, look at this down syndrome child. Down syndrome children bring so much joy. So just count yourself blessed if you ever have a down syndrome child, as exampled here on the camera.

SPEAKER_00 1:15:52

I'm trying to tell my stupid camera to zoom out. Bear with me, talk, talk for a second.

SPEAKER_04 1:15:59

Have you seen that that Instagram reel where it's like talking about like you know, using the word retarded is bad, and it's going through like a bunch of Down syndrome people, and then it gets to the random guy, and he's like, What the hell? Why'd y'all come to me? And then it goes to another one.

SPEAKER_00 1:16:15

I can't hear you.

SPEAKER_04 1:16:16

You're nope, you're not saying no. I see your lips moving, but I hear nothing.

SPEAKER_00 1:16:20

That's because I'm talking to the stupid camera. It's voice controlled. Zoom out.

SPEAKER_04 1:16:27

Tell it to go away. It's that Down syndrome, and it just went right at you. I'm gonna be silent, not say anything. I just want to just be really awkward. There's no reason not to go for it. None whatsoever. Like learn to live on a little money. That way, when you have a lot of money, you know what it's like and you know how to get back to it. The biggest benefit my wife and I ever had was two things. One, when I was in the Marines after we paid bills and everything, and I was putting through her her through nursing school, we had about an extra $75 to live off, $75 to $100, depending on the paycheck. And so that meant like we might be able to go out to eat once, or we might be able to go to a movie or something, right? That was it. That's all we had left, and that helped us now. When you know, I do pretty decent, I do enough well enough to where she can stay home and my kids home school and we don't worry about anything. But the other benefit that we had was when I was in the Marines, my wife and I lived in North Carolina, we didn't have any family near us. So when we got in a fight, we had to work through it. We we neither of us could run back to you know mom and dad's house to go stay the night to get over it or whatever. Like we had to work through that stuff, and so that's built us up and made us so much stronger because we're able to work through, and we we used to have some knockdown drag out fights because I I'm gonna be real with y'all. I was a horrible husband the first couple of years we were married. I was not prepared whatsoever to not be the selfish prick I still was, and it took a little bit for me to realize like I don't want to be like that, especially when I had my daughter, like that, I'm done with that life. But making it to where we couldn't escape only made us grow closer. Yeah, we never went to bed mad. We always it and it's there's there's this one. So in the Marines, when you go to the rifle range to qual every year, you have to be at the armory at like 3:30 in the morning. Well, I remember one year I was going to the rifle range to qual because you have to do it twice a year. Well, once a year mostly, but unless because the year runs differently, sometimes you might do it twice in a year. But I remember one year we got in a fight the second night I was on the rifle range and I was up till 2 a.m. to make sure we smoothed things over before I would sleep, just to get up at 3:30 in the morning to go to the rifle range and be in the sun all day. But that's how important it was to us that, like, I was not going to sleep, still mad. We were going to work through this and we were gonna forgive each other, and I was gonna go to sleep. That was the worst I've ever shot on the rifle range that week. Y'all like my haircut? It's crazy today. I haven't done anything with it today. I can't believe some of y'all thought I was bald just because I wear a hat. Is that what y'all used to do? People who wear hats are bald. Look how crazy that is.

SPEAKER_00 1:19:39

That is pretty crazy. You look like my seven-year-old. After being in a pool for a week and not washing his hair, the chlorine on his hair.

SPEAKER_04 1:19:49

Uh Norwid is coming. All right, so let's uh where are we going into? Let's see. Let me do one more on the John Brown Club. And let's see, where there it is. All right, let me share that. Pow all right. So this is just a what they don't really keep a website anymore. The thing hasn't been updated since 2024, right? Because they've they've pretty much gone radio silent, but it's still got some information on there. They no longer have their manuals on there. But I pretty sure it was the John Brown Club that was involved in Nashville.

SPEAKER_00 1:20:38

In Nashville. What do you mean by Nashville?

SPEAKER_04 1:20:40

The uh the Christian school shooting by that transgender person. Okay, pretty sure they were they were a member or had been trained by the John Brown Club. So they provided a lot of scrutiny on them when that happened. But the John Brown Club basically is another SRA, is just another terrorist Antifa group who provide a lot of support to protests and counter-ICE demonstrations and such, right? So these are some of the groups. I'm bringing these up so y'all can look them up. You you have them in your area. I guarantee it. At least one of these you have in your area. And you can look them and see what they're going. You're gonna find them on Facebook, right? You're gonna see the one we get towards the end is the Democratic Socialists of America, and they have some very prominent people who are members of them that are currently now mayors of major cities.

Armed Queers DSA And Broader Networks

SPEAKER_04 1:21:40

Let's see. So this next one we'll get into is the armed queers of Salt Lake City. They were implicated in the Charlie Kirk assassination. They provided Tyler Robinson with some of his training, if we believe that Tyler Robinson was the assassin. All right, so they were implicated there. They have been documented as going to Cuba and receiving paramilitary training prior to the Charlie Kirk assassination. Cuba, who uh Congress and the president just stated that they're going to enact military conflict on here soon. Um yeah, um the names of these some of these people are uh just two on the nose. But again, I'm not gonna go too much into any of these groups, but so you can look these up. You need to be aware of these. I want these in the back of your mind now. So you when you're on Facebook or whatever, or you're at your local college or whatever, you're seeing flyers for stuff, you're going to see some of these organizations and need to be aware what their ideology is behind them and how extreme they are. Every single one of these groups would not hesitate to shoot you if they knew that you believed in Christ, would not care whatsoever. Right? So just that that's the whole purpose of this is to bring this to y'all's situational awareness. All right, next one is the Democratic Socialists of America. So they're they're big in Minnesota, they are huge in Minnesota, they're huge mostly in the Northwest as well, especially in Portland and those areas. But as this says, the this is them in Oregon talking about some stuff with the Democratic Socialists of America, but and I can provide all these things if anybody wants them. But the biggest thing you need to understand about the Democratic Socialists of America is they boast over 100,000 members, and currently the sitting mayor of New York City is a chartered member of Democratic Socialists of America since 2017.

SPEAKER_00 1:23:57

Lovely.

SPEAKER_04 1:23:58

Mamdani has been a member of the Democratic Socialists of America since 2017, and he is now mayor. Uh let's see, let me show that real quick. So you see, it's 78,000 members, but this was a year or two ago, and that's probably uh way low. They're way higher than that. So Democrat Socialist America are mostly the organizational arm of a lot of these groups. They are the political group, they are the ones who are organizing the No Kings rallies, they are the ones organizing your counter protests of the counter-protests of the drag queen story hours, they are the ones who are harassing your local politicians to align themselves with their ideologies. They are mostly students because you have the young Democratic Socialists of America who are mostly students, most of those students who are going to college only through the government paying for their tuition, otherwise, they would not be able to go to college, nor should they go to college. But these are all people who are sucking at the teeth of the government, and they are turning around trying to tear down the same government who is putting them and giving them every facet of what they need. But they are no longer a small man on the stage, they are getting mayors elected to major metropolitan cities. These are people who will call anybody to the right of you know Elizabeth Warren a Nazi. Right? And they only call you a Nazi so they can justify killing you. That's the only reason they call you a Nazi.

SPEAKER_00 1:26:08

Yeah, a lot of these groups it it's it's very analogous to to the Spanish Civil War, and that in the Spanish Civil War you had multiple leftist groups with with different goals, less so different goals as different methods to all achieve the same goal, right? You had you had your anarchist groups, you had your con your actual, you know, card-carrying communists, you had your socialists who were actually communists but didn't want to be called communists, you had your your socialist socialists, you you know, you had your actual Republicans, as in the Spanish Republican, so on and so forth. All these different groups wanted had different methods, different ways they wanted to achieve the goal, but the goal was largely really the the same. I think we're seeing very similar things here with groups like the DSA, you know, and then you're more you're more radical in action-oriented groups, like at the John Brown Gun Club and things like that.

SPEAKER_04 1:27:16

And they all work interchangeably with each other. There's there is no divide there. Uh there's no Talmudic purity rituals that they participate in, and who is left enough, like they all support the same movement, and they're just under different banners based on where they're geologically at, geographically, yes, geologically would be. I'm just a dumb marine, I'm surprised I'm a granite DS. I'm a limestone. I was 50% there. It's like hand grenades. I was close enough. But if y'all if there are some areas that y'all want to look at to where you can actually keep tabs on them. on the internet there are a few few places they still they still go to if y'all ever heard of mastodon mastodon is a how to how to the technological term for it is it is like a decentralized social media platform here i thought you were talking about the metal band about the band from atlanta yeah no i wish i was i wish i was another one is vk it is a social media platform out of russia which they love to use for some reason yeah it's like dealing in front of for leftists another one is blue sky but keep in mind that 50 of the people on blue sky are pedophiles so you're gonna run into every every every two people you meet at least one of them is a pedophile they love they love pedophiles over there for some reason they do it but you know the nice thing will be when the rule of law goes away if you have access to a blue sky account you have a ready-made target list so that'd be nice the wood tripper will be running 247 gotta give me one of when I did tree work the company I worked for it had what's called the tub grinder where you can put a basically a full 36 inch wide tree in and it will turn into to to mulch right gotta get us one of those yep look after the after you know after the with thought rule of all happens you know once we get into a a position where your your police are no longer gonna respond to anything millstones and wood trippers are gonna be working overtime and I live right in a lake there's gonna be a lot of millstones the way I see it as as civilization collapses right like the state right has the god given authority to use capital punishment as society collapses that state it just gets smaller and smaller smaller until my family is the state for all intents and purposes the state that's a that is a situation I always wanted to I want I want to get like a moral theologian on the show one day and then ask them at like and just like slowly whittle down the circumstances to the point of like at what point and I able to conduct guerrilla raids to stop people who I know are harmful to society like at what point is that acceptable and it's no longer a sin I can't give the example which I brought this up with Tim Flanders a long time ago right with what everything that was going on in and during COVID and they were coming after people who are not allowing their children to transition right and then their kids were being transitioned to school and so I asked I was talking to Tim about it I was like so at what point is it is it allowable for me to exert physical force on somebody do I have to wait till they transition my child or do I have to wait till they're in my driveway to come take my child away from me or do I have to wait till they physically put their hands on my child to take them away from me right or do I have to wait till they're my child's in their car driving away at what point can I kill somebody right and and he was like I don't know he couldn't really answer my question I was like I can tell you when it's going to happen it's I'm gonna look at my range card to have it on my front door and I know it's exactly 110 meters from my front door to the front driveway and only I know exactly what my hold is on my rifle. I know exactly where it's gonna happen I'm not gonna allow someone to get on my porch and get that close to threaten to take my codes away everyone's going to get hurt at that point. Yeah well it's like it's I I know if I say the word we will get

Moral Lines During A Slow Collapse

SPEAKER_04 1:32:10

at the minimum a message on the video I've already said it I'm sure I've already said the word the a word I'm thinking of a a clinics right like at what point as long as you especially especially if you can at what point can you use physical force to stop the Holocaust of children that's happening in the country right like especially let's say if you're talking about destruction of property and not necessarily intentionally harming anyone like you can't tell me that willful destruction of a building that you know would end up saving children's lives the next day you cannot tell me that is morally wrong by any teaching of the church did you see the story of that young lady who torched the aid clinic oh no or she destroyed it somehow everyone's making the jokes it was it was just a collection of bricks and bricks and mortar it wasn't the clinic yet yeah but yeah like how many lives did she save when she did that right like it at what point and it that's I think we're with the the baby boomer generation who has been willing to tolerate just about anything as long as they can still go on their cruises and go to Hardy's at seven o'clock in the morning right then people go to Hardy's at seven o'clock in the morning yeah that's the best time to go of course why wouldn't you go to Hardee's at seven o'clock in the morning because there's other places to go to at seven o'clock in the morning Hardy's has good breakfast let me let you know I'm gonna let you know I will agree with that you are right that if y'all don't have jacks up there but jack's here in Alabama the best fast brew breakfast you'll ever have jacks in the box no it's just called jack's oh no I never heard of it best the best fast food breakfast you'll have in your life but anyway I did have water burger for the first time it's not been the same since private equity bought it it wasn't anything special yeah it's it hasn't it hasn't the first time I had it 12 years ago it was the best fast food burger I've ever had in my life now it's like it's better than McDonald's right but it's it's not worth the wait I can tell you that that was yeah I stood in that building for like because once again couldn't go through the drive thru in the van I stood in that building for like 15 minutes and I was the only one there it was midnight. Yeah

Listener Q And A On Gear

SPEAKER_04 1:34:52

yeah let me I'm gonna start some of these questions guys I don't want to miss them make sure I get that uh so was so they what was I getting at hardy oh oh yeah so the boomers have have an infinite amount of tolerance as long as their quality of life is not affected yeah whereas like Gen X the tall like one we we never had like I'm Gen X and I'm like the last layer of year Gen X some people call our generation Xennial like Gen X and millennial at the same time right but anyway we have we've never had tolerance for anything because this also why you see a lot of Gen X parents who are helicopter parents because we saw how we were raised and we were feral children pretty much yeah we're overprotective of our kids a lot of times I'm not well but I've seen people of my generation who are but then you get into the millennials and and Gen Z and the tolerance is gone you know it's we no longer at what point is at what point is the breaking point where people are are realizing hey our government's full of pedophiles and baby eaters at what point do we stop letting them do that stuff and I and to be honest with you I think it's closer than we think it is I especially as the economic times get worse and people are like why am I paying five dollars a gallon for gas when we're exporting gas out of the country and exporting oil it's funny these things on one hand they tend to build slowly but on the other hand when the end comes it's it comes quickly and surprisingly yeah you know like like the Russian revolution yeah it it like it built slowly there was a revolution in 1905 you know you had assassination of the czars in the late 1800s it was building for a long time but in 1917 man in February bam it just all of a sudden yeah kicked off you know all right I want to get to this question real quick the Virginia's assault weapon band 15 plus man regular band goes into effect soon what do you guys recommend we stock up on for grandfathering 30 round mags first of all you can get them on a lot of websites for like 10 or 11 dollars each you need at least at least 10 mags at the minimum 10 mags but I would buy as many as you can mags are a disposable item they are what's going to fail the fastest on any firearm you have buy as many as you can if you can have 30 you can have 50 whatever you can get right whatever you can afford but do not put anything on a credit card do not go into debt for anything buy what you can afford but have get to the point where you have at least 10 mags next one part of it is but instead you have to make sure you won't be out in position where you no longer protect your family like getting around risking for yeah and that's the that's the thing that I was weighing is like at what point is it worth it to my family to risk myself to protect them right like that's kind of like delineating like at what point am I neglecting my family's protection by not doing anything right and at what point did does that threshold cross right is is what I was going to work fast food at this point it is cheaper to go to a sit-down restaurant in some cases because there's some cases I go to a sit-down restaurant and the kids eat free as long as we buy an adult meal so my oldest daughter's four will should be 14 in August if she said I was if I told you she was 13 now she'd get mad she's like damn I'm 13 and a half but when I buy myself a meal my wife a meal and my daughter a meal my other three kids eat free so I'm spending like 60 bucks at most to a sit-down restaurant where it's 60 for me to go to a fast food restaurant and the food's worse and the service is worse. So why would I do that yeah I think at this point the best example and I I've brought this up before there's a there's a series of books by the his his pen name is Glenn Tate but he wrote the book it's called 299 days and it is about a slow collapse of the United States. The difference then was it was under a regime like Biden that the slow collapse it was under a very socialist government that the slow collapse and it got to the point where where the government was only giving power and was and basically power was given for free in order to keep people from revolting. So they know like people know like I don't have to pay for power but that's just the only the only thing keeping me from you know destroying every politician I see it's a very good book series and it's very prescient it's very uh it's almost prophetic in some of the aspects of it but if you ever it's a fiction series i yeah I highly recommend it if you have a chance to read it yeah I mean going out to eat is so ridiculous. I mean just for my I went to Chipotle and it was like $25 this is insane like I'm not doing that again. Like I'll eat as much from home for now on that's like that's not worth it whatsoever. And I'll probably need to be you know not eating out as much anyway I gotta say I I am a fan of the the waffle houses you guys have man it depends on the time of day you go yeah if you when I when I texted you it was yeah what two 2 p.m yeah if you go before sunset you're safe but once the sun goes down all rules are off someone's getting in a fight if it's after the sun's down but man yeah you go you get the all-star and you get the the hash browns and you get them all the way you either go gravy or chili you don't do both yeah I guess I'll do both some people do you know some people just want to watch the world burn oh man all right that's all I've got on the far left groups guys if y'all have any questions about that post them real quick it's not because I'm dying of heat stroke so look yeah we've got about 10 more minutes before I'm gonna call it so get your questions in now have you done it have you man I still haven't posted that damn video video I did I did the Dickens drill and I have not posted it yet I wanted to show y'all so the first time I shot it was bad but it was cold I hadn't shot at that was the first thing I did was I did the disc drill and I think I got like five of ten on on the target the second time I did I got ten of ten but but I I wanted to show y'all what it was but we're gonna post the the winner remember for the telegram guys if y'all are in the telegram get in the telegram but we do a a competition every month last two months has been the same competition because we came into it late last time but we're doing the Dickens drill you've got the weekend two days yeah yeah you got two days to still get in maybe it's not a competition who does it best it's a if you do it you get entered and then you're random someone is randomly chosen but we do the Dickens drill this month I've got my I've got mine I gotta post it real quick it's on my other laptop though I'll have to do it on that but I'll post mine with that I did six of ten with irons bad I mean it depends it's not acceptable it's not passing you need to get eight of ten but I did get nine of ten with irons that was on that was on my Kimber 2k11 like yeah not really like what you think of but but I mean six of ten at 40 yards it's still decent shooting right if you can hit the hardest thing when I was in the Marines and I taught I was a primary marks instructor teaching pistol was the hardest thing to teach rifle there's a lot of forgiveness pistol there's not some guys it took me two days just to get them on paper and because you know some people just don't have an affinity towards it and they don't understand but if you can shoot and hit a man size target at 40 yards and hit six of 10 like it's not a pass but it's not bad. Like if you know if you came with down to that situation if you can get six of ten that's pretty good you're probably coming out of that alive. If you're hitting six of ten with a little more practice you can get to eight a ten if you're hitting zero of ten work but yep thoughts on PDWs they're fine yeah if yeah I like PDWs but if I'm gonna do a PDW I'm not gonna do an AR pist I'm not you know I'm not gonna do an AR nine millimeter pistol no if it's an AR platform you might as well do a 300 black right exactly if so if I'm gonna do a nine millimeter pdw it's gonna be Kuna or something the Kuna's my favorite yeah the MP5's got the cool factor but it's three times the cost of the Kuna just go with the Kuna yeah yeah I mean or you could do the the chassis like 365 whatever it is the flux rater yeah that's more of a PDF if you're going with anything that's over a four inch barrel you need to go rifle round 300 blackout like my well the the the 365 pdw actually has a six inch barrel does it yeah but like my I don't it's not really PDW but my my smallest rifle I have is my 300 blackout it's an eight inch barrel and I've got and the suppressor on it's eight inches too but it's like you can't hear it like it's all you hear is the metal grinding against itself as it shoots as it loads the round like it's so super quiet but anything more than you know a six inch really a four inch barrel it should be a rifle round and specifically I would go with three hour bucket I wouldn't go with five five six that that lower that low no you need at least a 10 inch barrel for super five six bust your ear drums predator predator has the best line of any movie whatsoever when Jesse Ventura says no one makes me bleed my own blood that is the best line in any movie you have to understand though for a Minnesotan we have bad memories of Jesse Ventura I don't care that is the best line in a movie every positive

PDWs Practice Drills And Range Standards

SPEAKER_04 1:46:11

okay speaking of PDWs my p90 is my favorite gun to shoot right now man if you ever get a FRT put in that thing it's gonna be amazing I know it is it's it I don't know one it's just the look right but two the thing's got no recoil at all with the five seven and it just it's a man it's it it's fun but it is expensive too it is it is nothing but a vibe gun it really is right on the whole purpose of having it is just for the vibe like you know they they make strike makes um not a chassis but you know well yeah I suppose it's kind of like a a chassis for it to make it more user friendly and to where you can mount things easier and but it's like I don't want that I want it to look exactly like the P the B90 Lethal Weapon or Die Hard so I I have to go with Lethal Weapon it's because the Lethal Weapon series was my dad's favorite movies I what he watched them all the time as a kid laughed at all the stupid jokes between Gibson and Danny Glover. Yeah but diehard might be the better better the first diehard is probably the better movie but I love lethal weapon the magic of diehard is he is an ordinary guy and he there's like nothing super about him he's not SF he's not like SWAT he's not nothing he's just a random detective that happens to be there that goes through the turmoil of going through this whole event that is the best absolute aspect of diehard which is what lost it in later movies when they basically diehard three and on diehard two was still kind of there but diehard three and on lost it which one was in the airport was that two two that was two but three is this the sign scene in New York which is worth it by itself and diehard four is even worse diehard four is terrible yeah John John Wick or I've never seen equalizer so I'm gonna have to go john wicker equalizer's good is it so the difference is equalizer is more autistic right john wick is more like angsty teenager in what way is equalizer more autistic he like in the fact that he like palms it as he's killing people like he'll look at his watch and start the timer and if he doesn't do it in like nine and a half seconds and kill everybody in that room like he feels like a failure type of thing like he's he's he's he's autistic so I can see why you autist like equalizer it's one of your people and yes die hard is a Christmas movie I I do completely agree with that absolutely and anybody who says differently is anathema sit all right we got any more questions we got three minutes you got three minutes to get a man and I got about five sips of my rum and coke that was a big rum and coke sir and it's the first one I had it's a Friday so I I don't blame you.

SPEAKER_00 1:49:43

Yeah I got nothing to do tomorrow I'm gonna get up late I gotta I I do have a confession to make those gay fruity drinks went down so good in Florida they really did.

SPEAKER_04 1:49:58

It's not gay when you're on vacation

SPEAKER_00 1:50:00

That's true. Like they had one that was gray goose, lemon cello, and then lemon sorbet. And then they gave you a gay little spoon to eat the sorbet after you drank the drink. It was so good, dude.

SPEAKER_04 1:50:18

I'm a big fan of a rum runner.

SPEAKER_00 1:50:20

Oh, I had a I had a few of those.

SPEAKER_04 1:50:22

Yeah, I'm a big fan of rum. So I lived in Florida for a year before I joined the Marines. I lived in Cape Coral and Fort Myers. I lived on Fort Myers Beach. And man, I used to one living on the beach is a different experience. Like if if any of you've ever lived on the beach, you never get you don't appreciate the beach anymore because you're there all the time. But the amount of great food that's on a beach and the amount of great drinks is on

Movies Travel Drinks And Beach Plans

SPEAKER_04 1:50:55

the beach, you get it spoils you. So then when you leave the beach, they're not available anywhere else. So you're like, you know, I used to get these things all the time at the beach, and now you can't get them because you're in downtown Atlanta. But living on the beach was amazing. And the fact that I could like walk to the beach, literally, it was 100 yards from my house every day, but I never went to the beach. It's like I was sick of it. I never wanted to go. Now I kind of miss it. Like, I'm not a beach guy. Like, my wife, my kids love the beach, and I go to the beach because they love it. But like, you'll never if if I was given a choice, would I go to the mountains or the beach? I'm going to the mountains every time.

SPEAKER_00 1:51:32

100%.

SPEAKER_04 1:51:33

Every time, every single time. But I love my kids more than I love the mountains, so I will take them to the beach.

SPEAKER_00 1:51:41

What about a beach on a lake in the mountains?

SPEAKER_04 1:51:48

I would sell my house and I would just move there.

SPEAKER_00 1:51:49

I I'm I'm more of a lake beach guy, right? Because I mean I live in that's not a beach.

SPEAKER_05 1:51:54

That's not a beach.

SPEAKER_00 1:51:56

Fair. But even then, like I love swimming. I don't like my feet getting full of sand. I don't like sand getting everywhere. I don't like getting sunburned.

SPEAKER_04 1:52:07

Have you ever gone to the Gulf? No. Like, so when you when you come down to Alabama next time, we'll go down to the Gulf. And you will never go to another beach in your life after that. What? It is it is way different. The beaches are cleaner, the water is clearer. You don't have like in St. Augustine, you've got like the issue with the seaweed and the kelp and stuff in the water. Like y'all probably didn't get in the water, it's probably too cold.

SPEAKER_00 1:52:36

But no, dude, the water is like 10 degrees warmer than the water at the lake here. Like it it was not.

SPEAKER_05 1:52:42

It's still pretty early, so it's still cold.

SPEAKER_00 1:52:44

No, I I know we felt it.

SPEAKER_05 1:52:46

It did not feel cold.

SPEAKER_04 1:52:50

Down at the Gulf, the beaches are way better. Way better. So we're gonna have to plan a time for y'all to come down. Y'all stay a couple days here at my place at the farm, and then we'll go down to the beach for a couple of days, and you will never go to another beach in your life.

SPEAKER_00 1:53:05

Well, I was gonna tell you.

SPEAKER_04 1:53:06

That is the one thing about Alabama I'm glad no one knows about. We have the best beaches in the United States.

SPEAKER_00 1:53:13

Down on the Gulf there. Yeah. Well, I was gonna tell you, we are planning on going to St. Augustine the first week of January for like a whole week this time. Goodness. So if you guys if you guys made the drive for a day or two, it'd be fun.

SPEAKER_04 1:53:30

Yeah, out to see. I usually I usually have a work conference at the beginning of the year every year. It's usually like the second or third weekend of the month in January, but I'll have to see. Maybe. I've been wanting to take the kids to St. Augustine for a while. I used to go there a lot for spring break. That in Crescent Beach, which is just south of St. Augustine. Back before in my debaucherist days.

SPEAKER_00 1:53:54

Yeah, it's a it's a cool city. Yes, it's gay when you're on vacation.

SPEAKER_04 1:54:04

That's 100% true. I mean that's the law. I don't want to tell y'all that. But anytime you have time with me is amazing. We have a good time. Alright guys, it's after 10. I think we're gonna call it. Are you gonna do a show on Monday or do you want to shift it to Wednesday?

SPEAKER_00 1:54:31

Let's see if we can think of something good to talk about by Monday. I mean there might I mean we might be at war again, who knows? If we're invading Cuba by Monday, I'll get stuff to make a mojito and we'll drink mojitos and smoke cigars. Just for the theme.

SPEAKER_04 1:54:54

I can't wait to go like uh Havana will be on a nice vacation again.

SPEAKER_00 1:55:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:55:03

We haven't been able to go since Godfather II.

SPEAKER_00 1:55:07

Since Godfather Two. I've never seen any of those movies.

SPEAKER_04 1:55:13

No? Godfather One's good, Godfather 2's good, Godfather Three. In context, as a Catholic is good, but in overall in cinematic prestige, it is not good.

SPEAKER_00 1:55:27

Lake Miltona.

SPEAKER_05 1:55:29

Where is Lake Miltona? Miltona? That sounds like a great aunt's name. That's my great aunt Miltona. He used to call him Milton, but he got a little of that gender dysphoria. He got a little bit of that tism.

SPEAKER_04 1:55:48

Now he's Miltona. Alright guys, we're gonna call it.

SPEAKER_00 1:55:55

Hope y'all enjoyed it. I'm sure I've driven by it, but no, I've never been there.

SPEAKER_04 1:56:00
