Seth Holehouse is a TV personality, YouTuber, podcaster, and patriot who became a household name in 2020 after his video exposing election fraud was tweeted, shared, uploaded, and pinned by President Donald Trump — reaching hundreds of millions worldwide.
Titled The Plot to Steal America, the video was created with a mission to warn Americans about the communist threat to our nation—a mission that’s been at the forefront of Seth’s life for nearly two decades.
After 10 years behind the scenes at The Epoch Times, launching his own show was the logical next step. Since its debut, Seth’s show “Man in America” has garnered 1M+ viewers on a monthly basis as his commitment to bring hope to patriots and to fight communism and socialism grows daily. His guests have included Peter Navarro, Kash Patel, Senator Wendy Rogers, General Michael Flynn, and General Robert Spalding.
He is also a regular speaker at the “ReAwaken America Tour” alongside Eric Trump, Mike Lindell, Gen. Flynn.
Welcome to Man in America, a voice of reason in a world gone mad. I'm your host, Seth Hulghouse. Apologize for that countdown freezing. I'm not sure if that was how it looked on your end or if it was just just on my end. Be it looked like it was frozen.
Speaker 1:But anyway, here we are. That's how you know I'm live. I'm here right with you. So, thank you for being here live. We've got a lot to cover tonight, and there's some pretty big stuff happening.
Speaker 1:And I know that I've been focusing a lot on, I guess, you know, the war, but not just the war now, kinda covering these things leading up to now over the past couple of years, looking at, you know, supply chain issues, potential lockdowns, the threats. And I have to say that with what's happening in the situate with this situation with Iran, the threat is very real, and I'll be going over that tonight. Before we jump into that, though, just a few kind of points to go over. First off, thank you for being here for the show. This is Sunday with Seth.
Speaker 1:We're starting to get some rhythm going on with this, which is fantastic, which is exciting. I wanna remind all of you that, I've got my producer who's monitoring all the comments. So I really want this show to be us about us interacting. It's not about me just talking to you. I wanna be back and forth.
Speaker 1:So I've got multiple screens up. I'll be pulling up the comments a lot during the show. So if you see here, for instance, you know, I'll be pulling things up during the show. I'll be showing your comments, going back and forth. So just a reminder that if you have a question, or if you have a specific comment that you'd like me to read, just write question or comment in all caps.
Speaker 1:And I've got both, Rumble and, YouTube comments that are showing up here. So, anyway, yeah, just and also, I guess, let's just start with this. Like, if you're watching Night Now live, let me know where you're coming from. Let me know where in the world you're at. Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 1:Catholic coach. The world has gone mad. I mean, it really is. I feel like when I go and and check out what's happening for me, one of the main places is just on x, which I I really I like calling it Twitter. X is too transhumanist for me.
Speaker 1:But, you know, Twitter's a good pulse on a lot of things. And I feel like I go spend ten minutes on Twitter, and, like, things that used to tap in, you know, once a month are happening, like, once every hour or once every half hour. There's a saying what was the saying? It says sometimes I I forget. But it's basically a saying about how sometimes that it takes what happened, what takes ten years for something to happen, but then ten years happens in two weeks.
Speaker 1:I'm having a little bit of a brain fart, so I'm butchering it. But, anyway, that just had that's how it feels like things are going right now, just completely bonkers and wild. So, again, just a reminder, let me know. I wanna be back and forth with you. If you have questions, comments, let me go.
Speaker 1:Okay, great. Here's some people. Let's see. We got, a believer from Tennessee Hills getting my my land ready for the collapse. It's coming just the beginning.
Speaker 1:I don't wanna be a doomsdayer, but, yeah, stuff's stuff's getting very real. Also got Geo, WRA from Australia. We actually there's a lot of people that watch this show in Australia, which is really amazing. I I actually so my wife is Australian, and I've got a a massive or her family, my, you know, my family through her over in Australia. So yep.
Speaker 1:Akron, Ohio. Yep. I drive through Akron very often going back to Ohio from Upstate New York. You know, got some out here from Hawaii, Alabama, Southeast Georgia, the Soviet State Of Washington. Well, hello, Soviet State Of Washington from the communist state of New York.
Speaker 1:You know, give you less nice kind of wave from over here. Yeah. So, anyway, so we'll we'll kinda we'll dive in the show. Just a few, other things before we jump in. I do want to just highlight, for those of you that are watching on Rumble, especially, thank you so much for for supporting a free speech platform.
Speaker 1:So I still have my channel on YouTube, and, like, right now on YouTube, for instance, you can see, you know, there's a chat happening. There's people hap Okay. Hey, got Montana, you know, is tuning in on YouTube. Another Hawaii from Maui, another Washington, Quebec, Canada, currently in Columbia. So I still have my YouTube channel, but that YouTube channel is so insanely shadow banned.
Speaker 1:It's just insane. There was one time when I was doing a live show, and I think they forgot to activate one of the bands on my channel. Because I had, like, 10,000 people watching live on YouTube. Right? I mean, now I'm I'm lucky to get 200 watching on YouTube.
Speaker 1:So I'm thinking maybe what I'll do is I'll create, like, a second like, a new channel, maybe call it Seth Holehouse or Man in America Show, and just see if there's a new channel that hopefully doesn't have the same restrictions on it because it's ridiculous. But for those of you that are watching on Rumble, thank you. Thank you for for supporting. Yeah. Thank you very much.
Speaker 1:Rumble is great. Now, one thing just, speaking of Rumble, I'll tell you a little bit about Rumble Wallet. So let me pull up the, the website for you. So as we as I told you, censorship, yes, censorship is happening. It's real.
Speaker 1:It's everywhere. So the platforms are controlling the narratives, and they're pushing the stuff they want us to see, and they're hiding the stuff like me they don't want you to see. So we have to fight back. Rumble's the only company that has actually stood the test of time that really deserves our support. Even x, x, as as everyone's like, oh, great.
Speaker 1:You know, Elon x, I'm still very censored on x. Right? So Rumble, if you look at my numbers on Rumble, I'll on a Rumble, I'll get 300,000 views for a Rumble video. That same video on x will get 2,000 views, and on YouTube, it'll get 2,500. So Rumble is is honestly the only platform that doesn't censor me.
Speaker 1:So I love supporting this company. And so, obviously, Rumble is, you know, challenging the big tech tech censorship, but they're also looking at things that they can do to help out with banking and the threat of banking. Now if you know me, I'm not a big fan of crypto. However, I'm also I am a fan of kind of decentralization and pulling things out of the main banking system. Right?
Speaker 1:Because as we know, banks can cancel our accounts. They can freeze our cards. So that's why Rumble has launched Rumble Wallet. So it's a wallet that no one can cancel and that supporters can use to instantly tip creators like myself without those there being a middleman taking cuts. So with Rumble Wallet, you control your money, not a bank, not a government, not a tech company, not even Rumble can touch it.
Speaker 1:It's yours. Right? So you can keep it protected. So you can buy and save digital assets with it if you wanna buy Bitcoin, Tether, gold, etcetera Tether gold, etcetera. But it's not only a wallet, but as I mentioned, you can still, tip creators as well.
Speaker 1:So what you should do, is head over to Rumble sorry, wallet.rumble. Okay? So wallet.rumble.com and sign up there. Again, wallet.rumble.com. Sign up.
Speaker 1:And, yeah, just show support. You can leave tips for the creators on Rumble. You can do a lot of stuff like that. You can download the Rumble Wallet app and get signed up. So again, just go to, wallet.rumble.com or just search for Rumble Wallet in the app stores.
Speaker 1:So getting into today's show, let me go ahead and pull up a few things here. So okay. First off, looking I'll give you just a brief kinda overview of what we're gonna be talking about today. So we've got just a a just a a situation update on what's happening with Iran because Trump put a a threat out to Iran. They they're kinda kicked back.
Speaker 1:It's really, really intensifying. So I just wanna give you not gonna be a long update, but just a really kinda pointed update what's happening with the war in The Middle East, because it is escalating very quickly. So we'll be hitting that. Let me look at my notes real quick here. So we've got the war.
Speaker 1:We have got the kind of a threat analysis. There's also, you know, some discussion discourse about Iran potentially potentially attacking The US power grid, which is really serious, especially look at, like, right now Cuba. They're they're having massive blackouts. And what I've been seeing over in Cuba now is that they're now losing a lot of patients in the hospitals. Patients that run ventilators are now dying because they're running out of.
Speaker 1:They have blackouts, they have no oil coming in to support them because The US is blocking any Russian shipments of oil going into Cuba. So this is serious stuff. So we look at the war. We're gonna be looking at a lot of the kind of talk that I'm seeing about, you know, the energy lockdowns. We're seeing a lot of movement from governments that are saying, okay.
Speaker 1:Hey. Stay at home and work. We're seeing a lot of the propaganda that we saw during the COVID, you know, pandemic. So there's just some warnings about this because if you look at Agenda twenty thirty, you look at what's happening with this war, is there some tie there? It looks like there could be.
Speaker 1:We're talking about that. We're talking about preparedness, you know, just overall preparedness. Right? Because this is a pretty heavy situation. Also talking about how to stay positive, like, how to actually still stay grounded and rational and positive and keep going amidst all this insanity.
Speaker 1:And then of course, we'll be talking about whatever you wanna talk about. So, again, drop your comments, your questions in the chat. And as I mentioned, I'll be pulling them up periodically. So again, here you go. Yeah.
Speaker 1:So we pull these up, and we kinda going back and forth with these. And and honestly, ask me anything. I will tell you that there are certain topics that I will be I'll talk about them, but I'll talk about them in a very sensitive way. If you understand what I'm saying, you understand it. But, you know, it's not I'm not gonna call it self censorship because I'm gonna say what I really think about things, but you have to be careful.
Speaker 1:Right? That's just the point. It's one thing look, if you're just an anonymous account, and you just got a Twitter account, and you're you're, you know, patriot mom seventeen on Twitter, and no one knows who you are, you can say a lot. But when you're in my position and, you know, like, the government knows who I am, you know who I am. Like, my real name is Seth Holehouse.
Speaker 1:It's not some fake name. So this is my career. This is what supports my family. So I'm not gonna censor myself out of my own values, but I have to be careful with certain things. I hope you understand that.
Speaker 1:Okay? Because these are dangerous times that we're living in right now. And I've I've honestly put a lot on the line just in being someone that comes out and talks like this. Like, if you saw my interview I published last weekend or actually, no. Sorry.
Speaker 1:Just yesterday with JR Sweet about the CIA MK Ultra program and, you know, satanic ritual abuse. Like, I'm I'm touching on topics that are pushing me into this area of this guy might be a threat to the system. So just be be aware of that. Okay? I mean, honestly, it's it's it's at a lot of risk, honestly, you know, to to cover the things I'm talking about.
Speaker 1:I would love to, you know if I had a YouTube channel covering motorcycles, which I love motorcycles and dirt bikes and all that kind of stuff, that'd be great. You know, I wouldn't have any concern about censorship because it doesn't threaten anything. But I do this show because this is my purpose. Right? I I it's just it's something that is inside of me that I need to do this.
Speaker 1:And so that's why I'm covering the hard topics. So, anyway. Okay. Now, let's go ahead and just jump in. Okay.
Speaker 1:So I'm gonna walk you through just a a a an update on what's happening. And then I've also I've got a good update on what's happening with precious metals as well. Okay? So I always have my my little 10 ounce bar of silver here as that reminder of this is real money. Right?
Speaker 1:This you can hold it in your hand. You can the and the beautiful thing with this, this is money that if someone was trying to attack me, if I threw this to someone and hit him in the forehead, it would probably knock them out or kill them. So that's real money. It's actually self defense money too. Right?
Speaker 1:This is heavy. It's 10 ounces right there. It's almost a pound. Okay. So jumping in.
Speaker 1:So first thing I want to go over with you is okay. Let me see. Okay. Right here. This message from Trump.
Speaker 1:So this just went out, I think this was yesterday, where Trump says, if Iran doesn't fully open without threat, the Strait Of Hormuz within forty eight hours from this exact point in time, The United States Of America will hit and obliterate their various power plants starting with the biggest one first. Of course, he's polite. Thank you for attention to this matter, president Donald j Trump. So this is a pretty serious threat. Now Iran is hit back on this.
Speaker 1:So let me, let's see. Here is the response. Okay? So the Iranian military has outlined a potential response to US president Trump's threats to attack the country's power plants if Iran does not open the Strait Of Hormuz. So what you're seeing, and I guess time will tell what's gonna happen, is that Iran is not backing down.
Speaker 1:Like, that's what's interesting with this is that, you know, America I I think America's kinda lost a lot of its position as the global center where countries around the world just fall in line with whatever America wants to do, whether it's, you know, our enemies, you know, kind of really capitulating or whether it's NATO following along. It's not happening anymore. So, anyway, so the Iranian military has outlined the potential response if The US attacks their power plants. So they say the Strait Of Hormuz will be completely closed and will not reopen until our damaged power plants are rebuilt. Okay?
Speaker 1:So this is crazy. So Trump says, hey, You better open this strait in forty eight hours, or we're gonna destroy your power plants. Iran comes back, and they say, okay. Well, you know what? If you destroy our power plants, we're closing the strait until we re re rebuild the power plants.
Speaker 1:So this is some pretty serious back and forth going on here. They say that all power plants in the energy and information technology infrastructure of Israel will be widely targeted. So this is also interesting because, you know, they obviously know that Israel and United States are working very closely on this. There's a lot of different ideas about who's actually in charge. You know, there's a lot of my thinking that thinks that Trump isn't that much in charge, and he's taking orders from, Netanyahu.
Speaker 1:Now there's also been instances where we see that that's not the case and that Israel is doing things that Trump isn't aware of. Trump is also doing things that Israel's unaware of. It's a really complicated relationship, but Israel and The US are tied at the hip. They're like the conjoined twins with this war. So we're in it.
Speaker 1:Whether we want to or not, whether the American people want to be in it or not, we are. And it doesn't it's not happening without Israel being absolutely heavily involved. They also say, all similar company, companies in the region that have American shareholders will be completely destroyed. He also says that they say power plants in regional countries hosting US bases will be considered legitimate targets. Now continuing, I've got an analysis on that.
Speaker 1:Okay. So this guy over on Twitter, Jackie Manuel, if I that's how he pronounce his name, who basically breaks it down what they just said. Okay. This is helpful. He says that this is the most detailed and specific counter threat matrix Iran has produced in twenty three days, and every line of it is calibrated to maximize deterrence against Trump's ultimatum, breaking it down by item by item.
Speaker 1:So they say, again, the Hormuz completely closed until power plants are rebuilt. He says, this is the escalation beyond the current partial blockade blockade. Right now, Iran is selectively allowing passage. Full closure is a different order of magnitude for global energy markets. Rebuilding Iranian power plants under active bombardment could take months or years.
Speaker 1:This is effectively a permanent closure threat. That's really serious. K? They're basically threatening, as he says, what's almost what you say a permanent closure threat. Could be years.
Speaker 1:Okay? The next point, targeting all Israeli power and IT infrastructure widely is the most executable item on the list. Iran has demonstrated repeated intercept failures in Israeli air defenses over the past forty eight hours. A coordinated mass strike on energy and communications infrastructure rather than residential areas represents a qualitative escalation in what Iran is willing to hit. Companies with American shareholders, they threatened to take out companies with American shareholders in that region, is extraordinarily broad and legally meaningless as a targeting criterion, which is precisely the point.
Speaker 1:Almost every major American, every major energy company operating in The Gulf has American shareholders. So he says this is a blanket threat against the entire Gulf energy sector dressed in corporate language. K. Now he says power point power plants and countries hosting US bases is the one that should be keeping Riyadh, Doha, and Abu Dhabi, and Manama awake right now. Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, and Bahrain all host US forces, all have power infrastructure, all have populations dependent on desalination powered by the infrastructure, which I'll get into the desalination.
Speaker 1:That's huge. Okay? So Iran just told every Gulf state that they become legitimate targets the moment Trump pulls the trigger on Monday. This is not a message to Washington. It's a message to the Gulf capitals to pressure Washington not to strike.
Speaker 1:Good analysis, but you can see that this is serious. Like, this is heating up. Now let me get to my next post here. Okay. So Okay.
Speaker 1:No, no, don't have that one yet. I want to do Let's see. Let's see. Where was that post? Sorry.
Speaker 1:One second. Okay. Here we go. So they they talked about attacking basically, if they're hitting the power plants, the power infrastructure of these Gulf countries, what does that mean? Okay.
Speaker 1:So this is a post by Rashid Bin Saeed, don't know who it is, but I've kinda checked this information third party, and it seems to check out. So I'll get into this. Okay. So he says and this is this is this is really, really, really important. Okay?
Speaker 1:If there's one thing that you take away from this show, the information in this post is very important. He says nobody knows how effed the water situation actually is. Iran just threatened to destroy every desalination plant in The Middle East. Here's how much each country depends on them to survive. Okay.
Speaker 1:So what what does that mean? Desalination plants. So a lot of these areas, we're going over this, almost their entire populations are dependent on water that comes from desalination. What it means is they have to use their power plants to pull the water out of the ocean and turn it into drinking water. So here where I live in Upstate New York, I go drill a 150 foot well, I've got drinking water.
Speaker 1:Okay? That's just how it works here. That's not how it works in a lot of areas in The Middle East. They're very dry desert climates. So they rely on these huge plants to take the saltwater from the ocean, pull out the salt, and make it drinkable water.
Speaker 1:Okay. So what happens if those plants go down, which is a very real threat? Kuwait. Okay. 90% of all drinking water in Kuwait comes from desalination.
Speaker 1:One strike equals zero water for an entire country. Oman, 86% dependent. No backup supply exists. Israel, 75% dependent, already the target of Iran's retaliation threats. Saudi Arabia, 70% dependent.
Speaker 1:Largest desalination capacity in the world, also the largest target. Bahrain, 60% dependent. Desalination plants are already have already been hit in the past two weeks. Qatar, 50% dependent. Rosloff and energy complexes are already struck.
Speaker 1:UAE, 42 to 50% dependent, home to some of the world's largest plants. Okay? So this is roughly a 100,000,000 people. This is roughly 100,000,000 people that are at risk of having no fresh water. That dwarfs the scale of any war ever in the history of mankind.
Speaker 1:I'm not a historian, but, I mean, has there ever been a population like that that's at threat like this? A 100,000,000 people. Like, if they hit all those power plants or if if they hit these areas, if these countries can no longer turn saltwater into drinking water, we're talking about upwards of a 100,000,000 people that could die from that. This is really serious. Very, very serious.
Speaker 1:And and it makes me feel bad because, you know, we're here in America, and it's like our government, conjunction with the Israeli government, we're the ones, you know, bombing the hell out of the Middle East. Now whether there's a threat of nuclear power plant or nuclear weapons in Iran, that's a whole different discussion. I mean, we were told that there's weapons of mass destruction before we attacked The Middle East before. I mean, do we know is a threat real? I don't know.
Speaker 1:But the reality is it doesn't matter anymore because this is now what's on the line, is that now we're at a tenth of a billion people that are at risk of death because of this. So this is again, this is this is how war is fought now. It's not about how many bombs you can drop. This isn't, you know, World War two where you're just, you know, firebombing whole cities. Like, this is something where you take take off this critical infrastructure, and a lot of people could die.
Speaker 1:He says these are desert nations, no rivers, no lakes, no aquifers that can replace what the desalination provides. The Atlantic Council confirmed that several limited attacks on desalination plants in Iran and Bahrain that have already happened for the first time in history. So Iran just proved the concept works. Right? The question island one strike in 30 villages lost water.
Speaker 1:So now they're threatening to do it to every country in The Gulf. Okay? So this is serious. Okay, here is a map showing the locations of these desalination plants. Right?
Speaker 1:Like this is really, really, really heavy serious stuff. Not to be taken quite not to be taken lightly. Let me pop back over and look at the comments, and just see where everyone's at over there. Also, me know how many how many people are watching live do you see on Rumble? Let me know in the comments, because I don't have it pulled up.
Speaker 1:I'm just curious how many are live over there right now. But yeah, this is, this is no joke. This is no joke at all. Like I said, I saw about 4,000 people. Great.
Speaker 1:I love it. So, anyway, looking at some of the comments, coming in on this Okay. Let's see here. Okay. Continuing.
Speaker 1:Yeah. So, Hopeful Mind. This is life ending serious. Yeah. Yeah, it was now or later.
Speaker 1:Sean, Linane, if I'm sorry, if I miss misspounce your name, who says, If you are hungry and thirsty, you'd fight back, not hide. Okay. Here's here's some that nineties boomer who says, sorry, but if you live in a desert, you're an idiot. I mean, you know, people have lived in lived in deserts, like I mean, Jesus lived in a desert. Right?
Speaker 1:He wasn't an idiot. I mean, humans have lived in deserts, I think, since the dawn of time. You know, for a lot of people, yeah, for a lot of people, they they are born into this. There's massive populations of people living in the desert. So, yeah, wouldn't call them idiots, per se.
Speaker 1:I mean, yeah, they're at risk, but yeah. So yeah. This this crazy. Absolutely crazy. Okay, I see everyone saying, Yep, you got 4,200 that are watching live.
Speaker 1:Yeah. So, okay. Continuing with some of the other information I wanna pull Actually, I'll take a look over at YouTube. YouTube here. You know, people talking about saying where they're at.
Speaker 1:Yeah. Yeah, water. You know, this is from, ERK Lakeside AZ, Water, humans cannot live without water. Absolutely. Absolutely.
Speaker 1:Freedom Warrior USA says, I live in town and have chickens and solar power and grow a few plants. We are nearly off grid. I've been preparing for many years. It's love thy neighbor as thyself now. Yep.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it is heavy. It is. It is heavy. And that's the thing too, is that I mean, I think that something just wanna comment on this is that, you know, when I look at what's happening over on X, we see all this this discussion, or even you see it in the comments sometimes, and, you know, there there are people that are saying, you know, just I I see a lot of people that just have a very strong disregard for human life. Not as much on this channel.
Speaker 1:I feel like the people that watch this show are maybe somewhat of a reflection of me. If I obviously, if they like my show, and they like me, they keep coming back. But I see a lot of people that are just, like, so casually, so casually saying things like, let them all die and and all kinds of stuff. It's like, these are you know, that's the thing is that it's it's it's the innocent people. It's it's you and I, like right?
Speaker 1:It's it's you and I in every country, just your average people that get affected by this stuff, by these globalists. They do whatever they want to. You know, city of London, whatever it is, whatever they want to. There's a comment from, Laurie Nelson, Posner, over on YouTube who says, Please read high IQ comments only. I will try.
Speaker 1:I will try to do that. I will try to kind of, you know, try to filter through my own IQ and and try to pick up those high IQ ones. Actually, good point. This is from, ERK. Maybe it's Eric.
Speaker 1:I'll call you Eric. Sorry, ERK. But I'm gonna call you Eric. Eric who says that Arizonians live in deserts, except the high country where I am. Yeah.
Speaker 1:There's a lot of people in America that live in deserts. So, you know, I guess according to the other person, they're all idiots. That's not my perspective, though. So, but also, yeah, so I just wanna highlight a comment from over on Rumble. I saw this is from, SSO Barry Camping, says, Your dedication is inspiring.
Speaker 1:Thank you. I appreciate that. I really do appreciate that. Okay, so jumping back into just hitting on a couple of different more, topics here. Let me see, I wanna let's see what I wanna hit to next.
Speaker 1:Okay. Now, the one thing I wanna talk about now is that we're seeing the potential for this, you know, kind of agenda twenty thirty climate lockdown, energy lockdowns, and you're seeing this, actually. You're seeing a lot of the indicators of them using this as this excuse to push us into the fifteen minute cities, to push us into climate, you know, kinda energy lockdowns. And that's really it's a it's a question that I've had with this. You know, there are people that have asked me.
Speaker 1:Actually, one of my my, buddies came over yesterday to pick up some bread from a local bakery. And he goes, Seth, he goes, what's your take on the Iran situation? I said, well, you have an hour? He's like, well, no. And I didn't have an hour either, but, he goes, what do you think is what do you think is really happening here?
Speaker 1:He's like, it just a distraction from the Epstein files? Is it Epstein blackmail? Is it a real nuclear threat? And, you know, when I when I scale everything back, when I really take a step back, I I can't help but think that I think the idea that these individual countries are operating, right, and we live in a world where it's country a versus country b, I mean, even World War two wasn't that. I think that what it is, it's as I say, all wars are bankers' wars.
Speaker 1:I think that a lot of these wars are being controlled by very, very elite groups in our society that want to bring about these changes. So, you know, I thought the same thing with the Ukraine war. Right? Was the Ukraine war part of some bigger agenda to drive us into the agenda 2030 of technocracy, the stripping of our rights. It happens every war.
Speaker 1:These things happen. Right? You know, with the Patriot Act that emerges, you know, every war leads to a loss of freedom. And so I have thought often with looking at what the situation in Iran, whether the world leaders think that they're doing it on purpose or whether they're being used as tools from the puppet masters. I have been thinking, it's like, okay, is the whole point of this entire Iran war, is it just this kinda calculated controlled thing from these kind of elite satanic, you know, who knows what bloodlines and controlling families and whatever, is it just part of their own agenda to use this war as a way to push humanity closer into this Agenda 2030?
Speaker 1:There's a lot of reasons why I think that that could be the case. So I wanna hop in and start looking at here's a post I wanna pull out about, the lockdowns. Actually, that's that's a different actually, you what? I might as hit this real quick, because this this is a big one. Okay.
Speaker 1:So there's a video here. I'm not gonna play it because it's a minute and a half a little over a minute long. It's not in English, so I don't wanna have to, you know, read the subtitles for you, but I'll kinda summarize it. This is really, really, really serious because again, as I was talking about, you know, war these days is not what war was in World War two. Right?
Speaker 1:Our our our civilization has become so technologically advanced that we we rely on very complex infrastructure to maintain life. K? That's also it's been great because this infrastructure has enabled us to, for instance, have massive populations in The Middle East because we have these desalination plants. It's allowed us a lot of advancements and a lot of comforts. However, that becomes one of the weak points when we become so reliant on these very fragile systems.
Speaker 1:And so, you know, one of the big ones is just the power grid. So I've spent a lot of time talking about the grid and the vulnerabilities of the America The United States grid. I've interviewed multiple experts on this talking about how vulnerable our grid is here. And so I wonder how this this, post from, Matt over on x who says, remember all those times everyone said to stock up? Well, it may be time to consider it.
Speaker 1:Iran is now saying they can switch off power across The US if they want to. Okay. They're saying that cyber he says cyber war just redefined the battlefield. His international fail affairs expert, Sunabari, who I think is the guy in the video below, just dropped a chill chilling warning. The Islamic Republic may not need missiles to hit The US anymore.
Speaker 1:Instead, they've allegedly gone straight for the jugular, The US power grid. Now in my own opinion, through my own research, The US power grid is the weakest link of this entire nation. That US power grid. It's very, very outdated. If it goes down, it will take years to rebuild it.
Speaker 1:It because, you know, these big transformers take years to build and a lot and and they're being built overseas. So, if, like, an if an EMP hits, which I would say that a lot of the countries that we're up against, they have the power to do EMPs. But beyond the EMP, if they can hack and they can shut down the grid just through hacking and through cyber attacks, that can absolutely cause chaos. So well, this guy I'll continue reading this for you here. He says that within the last group, hacker group Handala is claiming a successful breach of critical electrical infrastructure targeting the very systems that keep the lights on across America.
Speaker 1:We're talking ICS and SCADA networks, the digital backbone of power generation and distribution. If true, this changes everything. There's no rockets, no bombers, no warning sirens, just silent infiltration inside the system. So basically, what they're saying is if if this is true, right, and, you know, are they bluffing? I don't know.
Speaker 1:Right? War is bluff on top of bluff on top of bluff. I mean, I think Trump does a lot of bluffing. Okay. It's part of being a good businessman is you you know how to bluff, you know how to play the hand.
Speaker 1:So are they bluffing? They could be or they could not be. But if they're talking about this, this is a real possibility. So if the grid goes down, that is that is bad news bears. That is not good.
Speaker 1:So just be aware of this, that that's a very real situation. We will talk about preparedness in this. And as I mentioned, we are gonna talk about hope too, because this is like, this is some heavy stuff. So we will be hitting on some of those other, comments and other angles as well, but I just wanted to pull that up. Okay.
Speaker 1:But getting into the, kind of the whole lockdown thing. Let's see here, we've got this. Okay. So this is a map right here showing, the energy lockdown has started. So this is showing the different countries and the different, things they're putting in place to basically start the early stages of an energy lockdown.
Speaker 1:Okay. I'm not gonna read this whole thing, but I'll kinda skip through this. This is from Christopher Green, who says the biggest lockdown since COVID is already unfolding, and they're hiding in plain sight until you can't escape it. Now one thing I will say is that I'm very cautious with this. I know that I I tend to be what you call a little more doom and gloom.
Speaker 1:I I I like to think I'm more of a realist, but there's definitely a lot of kind of fear propaganda going on. So just take it with a grain of salt that there's a lot of people that especially when you get to get to Twitter and x and you can create a post like, you know, I'm not saying this is fear propaganda, but you can create posts that are really alarming, and like, hey, the end is nigh, and those posts tend to go further. So some people, they really take advantage of that. I really try to be responsible in what I'm reporting, but we should just take a look at this. Okay?
Speaker 1:Talking about the lockdowns. This isn't just about the war. This is about how the war is deliberately strangling your freedom, your wallet, and your ability to move without even even admitting it's a lockdown. The dominoes are falling faster than anyone wants to emit. Right?
Speaker 1:So he's kinda talking about oil prices going up. What's happening? We're already seeing that flights are vanishing. A lot of airlines are, say, canceling flights or limiting flights. Trucking costs are getting expensive overnight.
Speaker 1:Now, again, if this like, as we talked about, if Iran shuts down the Strait Of Hormuz, like, Trump isn't bluffing, say he does bomb their power plants, and say they Iran, in response to that, completely shuts down the Strait Of Hormuz for whatever time it is, we will see oil prices skyrocket because of that. That's just as a reality. Okay? That's a reality. Things will get much more expensive.
Speaker 1:Fertilizer will get much more expensive and harder to get. Okay. So food prices, everything. So this guy in his post says that trucking costs are exploding overnight. Every single product on every shelf, food, clothes, medicine, will skyrocket as freight becomes unaffordable.
Speaker 1:Supply chains choke. He says fertilizer shipments are literally stuck, unable to pass through the block straight of Hormuz where a third where a third of global seaborne fertilizer trade normally flows. Farmers can't get what they need for planting season, which is that's where we're heading into. Crops fail. Food shortages hit hard.
Speaker 1:Price at the grocery store. Prepare for the kind of surge that makes 2020 look like a mild inconvenience. Says gasoline's racing towards $5.06, $7 plus per gallon domestically, and that's before full panic sets in. You'll cut back on driving because you have to, then the government step in and it makes you. He said, it's already happening overseas.
Speaker 1:It's in the blueprint. He says, okay, Japan tapping emergency river reserves, but still facing shortages. South Korea is capping fuel prices for the first time in decades while prepping energy vouchers and boosting coal and nuclear just to survive. Bangladesh, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Myanmar are all imposing outright fuel rationing. Four day work weeks, school closures, avoid nonessential travel, work orders, work from home mandates, cuts to electricity and air conditioning and elevators to conserve.
Speaker 1:Australia's officials are already whispering avoiding about avoiding nonessential journeys, the exact same language they used in 2020. So they called it a public health concern back then. Now it's energy conservation or national security. Right? These are the things that kind of lay the groundwork for lockdowns.
Speaker 1:Right? Now he says here, stock up. He says move if you can. I mean, you can't really move right now. I mean, maybe you could, but that's not easy.
Speaker 1:Anyway, just just, you know, just kinda keep this keep this, keep this in mind. Okay? Now, there's one thing that I wanted to show you because how I try to look at these situations unfolding is I try to look for patterns, I look at, okay, what's happening? What happened during COVID? What's happening now?
Speaker 1:I also try to look for propaganda. Okay? That's a big one. It's like, where can you see propaganda? Propaganda, where do you see the the same kinda consistent phrases being repeated?
Speaker 1:Right? We were back in 2020, safe and effective, safe and effective, or two weeks to slow the spread. How many times do you hear that? Two weeks to slow the spread. Alright.
Speaker 1:It's never just two weeks. But I want to pull this up. There's a There's a video on a play really quickly, so I'll put together. And let's see. One second, where do I have it?
Speaker 1:Okay, here we go. Okay. So, I just wanna play this, okay? This is just a clip of it's it's various clips, forty sec forty six seconds long. This is, put up by this guy named Parity Jeff.
Speaker 1:It's kind of an interesting account to follow over on X or Twitter. It says MAGA Republicans are telling Americans it's their patriotic duty to pay higher gas prices so Trump can fight in Iran. Regardless of what the actual message itself is, to me, this smells like an absolute coordinated propaganda campaign. So just be aware, whenever you see the mainstream media repeating these talking points, it's part of some sort of coordinated propaganda campaign. It just is.
Speaker 1:These things don't happen naturally. So I'll play this for you. Again, forty six seconds long, but just listen to this. Listen.
Speaker 2:As far as the oil prices, people just need to stop panicking. It's worth it to prevent Iran from having a nuclear weapon. So if I have to pay a little bit more for gas, I'll do that.
Speaker 3:You gotta pay the price, I mean, in order to have long term stability.
Speaker 2:The disruptions in the global markets are real and may be painful, But the long term benefits again are incalculable.
Speaker 3:There may be some sacrifices to be made at the pump on a temporary basis. I'm willing to pay 30% or 30¢ more at the pump to make sure that Iran does not have a nuclear weapon. To win in life, you gotta suffer short term pain for the long term gain or short term pain for long term gain. Freedom is not free. Americans are gonna have to make some sacrifices.
Speaker 3:This is short term, and I'm asking you to just trust the man. Okay? Trust the system. Let him
Speaker 2:As far as the oil prices, people just need to stop panicking.
Speaker 1:I'm sorry, but that last video there, like, that's one right here. Okay? Listen to what this guy says. Regardless of who the man is, let's listen to this.
Speaker 3:This is short term, and I'm asking you to just trust the man. Okay? Trust the system. Let him
Speaker 1:Okay. Trust the man. Trust the system. This is, like, straight out of Orwell 1984. Right?
Speaker 1:The you we have this guy, and he's on Newsmax. I'm not sure who who who that host is, but that that's irrelevant. Right? Whenever I see mainstream media coming out, and they're telling me, Seth, trust the man. Trust the system.
Speaker 1:All my red bells and flags and sirens start going off. It's like, no, I don't trust the man. I don't trust the system. Right? That's why I'm I'm, like, living in backwoods with, like, five different generators.
Speaker 1:It's like, I don't trust the system. So when I hear these kind of coordinated things, okay, short term pain for long term gain, short term pain for long term, These are propaganda messages. Actually, funny enough, I'm literally watching right now with my wife, Kate. There's a four part series. It's a documentary.
Speaker 1:It's on I'll I'll see if I can remember what it's called, but I can show you. It's on YouTube for free. It's like a four hour long or for it's four one hour parts about the history of propaganda that goes specifically with Bernays. It it's mind it's mind boggling, right, looking at the history of propaganda and how propaganda and marketing has changed everything about life in America. So my propaganda detector is just like, it's so sensitive.
Speaker 1:And when any news host comes out and he's saying, just trust the man, Trust the man. But even worse, trust the system? You want me to trust the system? You want me to trust the system that's been robbing us blind with their taxes, like illegal taxes? Trust the system that is protecting pedophiles and protecting criminals, the same system that is the same system that pushed all the COVID measures and the COVID solutions, right, in coordination with big pharma.
Speaker 1:Sorry, buddy. I don't trust the system. Right? I don't trust the system. I don't like the system.
Speaker 1:I'm not gonna listen to the system, and I'm gonna do everything I can do to get outside of the system. So, okay. I just wanna play it for you. So just again, I hope that that you can, on your same right, that you've got your propaganda detector. And look, if you detect propaganda coming from me, let me know.
Speaker 1:Right? Like, let me know if you think there's something fishy going on with Man in America because there's not. Like, I'm just I'm just some guy. Right? But I do see that.
Speaker 1:You see there's a lot of propaganda, something pushed. There's a lot of paid influencers. A lot. Right? There's there's a lot of paid influencers that are paid by backed by Israel.
Speaker 1:There's paid influencers influencers backed by her own government. There's a lot of pro Trump, like ultra MAGA pro Trump that I know are part of paid propaganda campaigns to to support the current go government. Okay? There's a lot of CCP backed propaganda. So, folks, there is propaganda everywhere.
Speaker 1:There's absolutely propaganda everywhere. So just just be cautious. That's okay. Just be cautious. Be careful.
Speaker 1:Let me go back to the, comments and see what is going going on here. Yeah. There you go. Thank you. Thank you.
Speaker 1:This is on Rumble, w s 84. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. There you go.
Speaker 1:Right? Yeah. War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength. Okay? Okay.
Speaker 1:I also hate, yeah, believer 2,000 who says, Socrates says that oil is going to $2.25 to $2.50. So for those of you who aren't familiar with what Socrates is, Socrates is the system that Martin Armstrong built, which I won't get into into Armstrong, but absolute genius. I'll probably have him back on the show soon. It's probably a good time for an update from him, but his system is deadly accurate. So yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah. So I think I think it's it's not unrealistic. Okay? Also good point here is from atlas beat, BE, who says, We're energy independent, yet our gas prices skyrocket. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yep. So, yeah, there you go. There you go. Actually, $3.60 Attic. He says, God, gambling and porn.
Speaker 1:Ban those you'll have utopia. I don't know about that. Maybe ban gambling and porn, but yeah, you you ban God, and what are you then? A bunch of heathens. Okay.
Speaker 1:Oh, there you go. Yes. Century of Self. That's it. Yes.
Speaker 1:Thank you. Okay. So let me let me see and pull that up real quick. So Century of Self, this is, the documentary that I was talking about. Thank you for reminding me that.
Speaker 1:So Century of Self let me just do a quick search, I'll show it to you. This is it right here. If you want a if if like, I'm extremely interested in, propaganda. Like, I love studying propaganda, social engineering. This is it right here.
Speaker 1:So it's free on YouTube. It's, there's four parts. So you either you can watch the individual parts, which about an hour long each, or this one right here, this is what I'm watching with, my wife, Kate. This is a whole it's almost four hours long total. And it's just called The Century of Self.
Speaker 1:And it is it is incredible. It goes into the history of propaganda, the history of goes really deep into who Edward Bernays was, who was Freud's nephew, but very, very, very powerful. So, yeah, whoever, thank you to whoever yeah. RK Ventures on Rumble. Thank you.
Speaker 1:Thank you very, very much. Okay. Yeah, lots of lots of action here. Yeah. Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 1:Hopeful mind. No, 1984, no animal farm. Yep. Thank you. Okay.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's a good point from Magnum41776. The war, if it's short term, and Trump comes out and says, I'll give you a stimulus check, I'll tell Trump, we already used the stimulus on high gas prices before you gave it to us. Wasn't that part of it too? Yeah, there we go. Yep, there we go.
Speaker 1:So Okay, continuing. Yep, yep, yeah, there you go. Yep, Joey Bronzoni, that is Edward Bernays, Sigmund Freud's nephew. Absolutely. Yep.
Speaker 1:Okay. So continue. Let me see if there's any, just gonna take a quick over and see if there's any questions that have been, pulled over for you to take a look at. There's also a handful of, of comments that I wanted to touch on too. So here's a YouTube comment.
Speaker 1:Let me pop back over to the YouTube chat. Okay. Okay. So, so Freedom Warrior USA over YouTube said, Our gas prices here in Sarasota have went from $2.54 on February 23 to $3.89 today at our Costco. That's a big jump, and our supply chain hasn't changed.
Speaker 1:It's psychological operation. I do think there's there's a lot of this stuff that which is completely psychological operation. Absolutely. Yep. There's actually there's one comment.
Speaker 1:This is, a comment I wanna highlight. This is from, Telegram earlier. This is from I I put a post out last night about today's show and wanted to see what, you know, people had any recommendations for discussion points. And Lydia over on Telegram made a good point. She said, my desire this morning was to make bread in my sun oven today.
Speaker 1:I couldn't get it to temp even though it was eighty three eighty three degrees outside and sunny. My point is, try out your SHTF methods now. Went I ahead and baked it the oven because I still can. That's a good point, right? If you're looking at preparedness, make sure you're trying out your stuff.
Speaker 1:Okay? That's important. Make sure that you're testing. You know, if you've just got a bucket of seeds, and you think that, oh, okay, if things get kinda crazy, I'll go plant a garden, and I can survive with the garden. No.
Speaker 1:You gotta make sure you're practicing these skills. Absolutely. Now I told you I had a quick update on precious metals. Okay, Eric, who says, Seth, love you brother. Thank you, Eric.
Speaker 1:Or ERK. Actually, it's a girl. I see it's a female in the picture. So sorry for calling you Eric. Okay.
Speaker 1:So ERK. Yes. Love you very much too. Okay. Now, I want to just give a quick update on what's happening with precious metals, because they're tanking right now, and it's frightening.
Speaker 1:So if you're someone like me that, you know, my nest egg is precious metals. Am I worried? I'm actually not worried at all, but I wanna explain it to you. Okay? So actually, I put together some research ahead of the show in looking at, what was actually going on with precious metals.
Speaker 1:And I just gonna kinda walk you through this because hopefully this helps you make sense of what's going on. Okay. So gold and silver, what's really going on? Okay. It doesn't make sense on the surface.
Speaker 1:We've got a war in The Middle East, oil spiking, global instability is through the roof, and silver and gold are dropping. So it doesn't make sense, but once you understand why it's happening, it actually does make sense. That's why I wanna show you what's going on here. It changes how you should be thinking about it from here on. In my opinion, again, it's my own purse it's not investment advice.
Speaker 1:Like, right now is the time to buy. Like, that's my opinion, personally. Like, this is the time to buy. Because I think the prices they're at right now are are low. You can come into them.
Speaker 1:But anyway, I'll I'll explain that. Okay. So where are we are right now? So gold is down 14% since February 28. Silver is down about 14% since February 28.
Speaker 1:So these are pretty big losses. So both metals spiked when the Iran strikes began. So gold hit $54.23, and silver touched $96, but they fell off a cliff. So here's why. Okay?
Speaker 1:Here's the part nobody's explaining. The war is good for gold thesis is real, and I've talked a lot about this. Right? Instability, war, etcetera, Gold and silver tend to be safe havens. People flock into these metals when they're looking for safety.
Speaker 1:Okay? But that thesis is real. It says, but it's it's conditional. So it holds when war creates currency chaos and debt spirals. It breaks down when war creates an oil shock.
Speaker 1:So here's the chain reaction. So oil spikes, inflation goes up, and central banks then hold or raise rates to fight inflation. So higher rates make gold less attractive because gold doesn't pay you any interest. So money flows out of metals into yield bearing assets. So oil topped one twelve a barrel this week.
Speaker 1:The inflation alarm is ringing. The Fed just signaled no rate cuts, possibly not until June 2027. The dollar is up 2% since the war started. Right? So gold is priced in dollars.
Speaker 1:That's a direct headwind. So investors are selling metals to raise cash and rotate into energy, which is actually going up. Okay. So this is a good point. Because if you look at what's happening with oil, you look at the comment about Socrates and Martin Armstrong predicting that oil could go up to over $200 a barrel.
Speaker 1:So if you're someone that is professional investor, you're looking at it and you're saying, okay, if I can move, say, if I can sell some of gold and silver and move it into oil, you're hedging on that. Right? You're saying, okay. Yeah. You can double your money, basically.
Speaker 1:So that's what's happening. So it say says, it's an interest rate in oil story. People are worried that we'll get slower growth and inflation with the Fed tightening. That's the headwind for a metal that pays no interest. And don't forget, gold ran up 64% in 2025.
Speaker 1:Silver was up a 135%. Okay? So when an asset moves that far that fast, a geopolitical event becomes the excuse to take profits, not the cause of a breakdown. So we've seen this before. So when Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, gold spiked and then sold off as the oil shock hit and the rate high hike expectations rose.
Speaker 1:So same playbook, same result. Okay? So in this very conflict, there was a twelve day war with Iran last year. Gold surged when it started. It gave back every gain when the ceasefire was announced.
Speaker 1:So the safe the safe haven trade off is often a short term momentum trade. Traders buy the fear and sell the resolution. So silver gets hit harder than gold for one specific reason. It's half monetary metal. It's half industrial.
Speaker 1:Solar panels, EVs, electronics, etcetera. So when recession fears spike alongside war fears, silver takes a hit from both sides. That's why the swing is bigger in both directions. Silver is more volatile. In the past couple of years, of all the silver and gold purchases I've made, I've probably put 95% into silver.
Speaker 1:It is more volatile, but it has a much larger upside. So here's the thing though, that the major banks, the ones with the most sophisticated models and the most money on the line, they haven't walked back their year end targets. They've kept them. So JPMorgan, end of the year, saying gold around 6,300. Now they're on the conservative end for silver saying 81 to 85.
Speaker 1:Okay? Deutsche Bank, 6,000 in the year. Bank of America for gold. Bank of America is saying around $1.35 in the year for silver, but it's also saying BofA is also saying that it could be up to $3.00 9 in looking at the the gold to silver ratios. So basically, it's saying that the if the Bank of America silver case is worth understanding, so they're projecting $1.35 based on the gold gold to silver ratio compressing back towards historical norms.
Speaker 1:Right now, it's around 65 to one. The historical average is closer to 50 to one. So if gold hits 6,000 and the ratio moves to 50 to one, silver's at one twenty. It's not a wild prediction, it's just math. Okay.
Speaker 1:This is the last bit, you know, the last bit here I'm gonna read through. This is the important part. Okay. What this means for you. I know a lot of you that have followed the show, and I see, like, my own family I talked to, a lot of you are holding physical gold and silver right now.
Speaker 1:And it can be frightening, okay, because you're watching these the paper prices dropping. Okay? It's uncomfortable. But here's what hasn't changed. Right?
Speaker 1:The fundamentals are still here. The government debt hasn't gone down. The dollar debasement hasn't reversed. Central banks are still buying gold at record levels. Also, they're buying silver, how sovereign banks are buying silver.
Speaker 1:The dedollarization trend hasn't stopped, and silver's supply deficit deficit hasn't closed. So what's driving the price down right now isn't a change in the fundamentals. It's institutional traders that are raising cash, momentum players unwinding, and rate expectations shifting. That's it. Okay?
Speaker 1:So the bottom line, gold and silver aren't failing. It's the market shaking out it out of weak hands before the next move. The war ends, rate cycles turn, the people who held physical metal through the noise will be in a very different position than people who sold it in the panic. So, again, I'm not a financial expert. Do your advice or sorry, do your own research on this just my own personal opinion.
Speaker 1:So I have to give these disclosures, but that's that's my thought. Right? Is it if you're looking at what's happening right now, for me, I I don't buy gold and silver as as a, like, a speculation. I buy it because I know the system is collapsing. The global financial system is is is a train heading off a cliff.
Speaker 1:There we I we are gonna see CBDCs coming out. We're gonna see more tightening and and less, freedom with our assets that are sitting in banks. You're seeing this stuff emerge already. So to me, this is my off grid solution. This is my out of the system solution.
Speaker 1:Right? Not to mention, I think that it still has been heavily suppressed. I still think that silver should be over $500 an ounce, and gold should be over $10,000 an ounce. And personally, I think that we're gonna see that with the next couple of years. So, obviously, I'm thinking, okay.
Speaker 1:That'd be great if it does, but it's for me, this is security. That's what it is. Okay? We've already seen, even with this own war, that there's been numerous threats of Iran doing bank related cyber attacks. Now whether it's Iran actually do it, whether it's Israel doing it, whether it's Klaus Schwab pressing a button, The thing is is that these wars are always excuses for these kinds of things to happen.
Speaker 1:So is there a potential of a cyber attack that hits the banking system? It's a very real potential. Is there potential of a cyber attack hitting the energy grid? Very real potential. So to me, that's what silver and gold represent.
Speaker 1:It's off grid money. Okay? Because I don't like risk. Now though I'm risking myself doing the show, I'm okay with that because it's purpose. It's it's my mission in life.
Speaker 1:But I don't like, you know, holding all my eggs in a basket and saying, hey, k, how much money do I have? Let me log into my my TD account. Let me log into this, you know, my Schwab investment account. I don't like only seeing my assets on a digital number on a digital screen because that can go away tomorrow. And that's why I'm still big, big person believing in gold and silver.
Speaker 1:So, anyway, do your own research. If you're looking for a good company to to to buy from, Noble Gold, this is who I use. They're great. They're really good with IRAs. There are a lot of IRA scams.
Speaker 1:Trust me. Like, know, Tucker's talked about talked about recently. There are certain companies that are completely ripping people off. I used to be in the jewelry and precious metals industry, so it took me a long time to settle on a company that I really trust. And Noble Gold, I absolutely trust.
Speaker 1:They're very fair. They're straightforward people. So if you want to move your money into gold and silver, honestly, right now, again, this is my own opinion, but this is a really, really good time to buy with prices as low as they are. So, anyway, continuing, I think that I've hit the main kind of kind of geopolitical and everything points. Let me go and hop back over to the chat and see what's going on.
Speaker 1:Over here. Okay. Yeah. There you go. Sean, Lin Lane, who also had a great comment earlier, who says, banks are selling trade in of paper, gold, and silver dollars to their friends.
Speaker 1:When the banks need these assets back, the price will skyrocket. Also, yeah, Magnum $4.17 76, they want all the physical silver from us to scare us. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Also, w s 84, silver is easy to barter with. Absolutely. That's a big point. Silver is easy to barter with. That's that's why I you know, obviously, I I don't have most of my silver is not in, like, larger bars like this.
Speaker 1:It's typically gonna be in one ounce, or, I have a lot that is just in old constitutional silver, old quarters, half dollars, dimes, etcetera. They're very easy, especially in a barter, in a barter situation. Silver is gonna be great, great, great, great, for bartering. So Okay. Let's see.
Speaker 1:Okay, come on. Let's go and keep going. Let's see what's other comments. I love seeing how active this this chat is. It's absolutely wonderful.
Speaker 1:It makes me very, very happy. Yeah. Also, good point, right? This is from, g o w r a, If you buy precious metals, buy physical metals and not paper notes. Absolutely.
Speaker 1:Right? Absolutely. Make sure you're not buying paper. Buy real. Now it's one thing if you're doing an IRA and say, you know, so I know with Noble Gold to do that, where you can actually hold your you can you own the physical silver, you have the exact pictures of it that you want, that they hold it for you in a third party vault.
Speaker 1:That way, if you don't wanna get hit with those, the a lot of the taxes and fees from pulling it out of your IRA, that's one thing. That's not the same thing as paper silver. I don't touch ETFs. I don't touch any of that kind of stuff. Okay.
Speaker 1:Oh, so ARC community. I will touch on the ARC community. So, thank you. This is from, Gene I have such hard time pronouncing some of these names. Sorry.
Speaker 1:Jeanie Dishes. Jeanie Dishes over on Rumble, who's asking about the Arc community. Yes. So the Arc is launching this week. The I don't know the exact day yet because we're still finishing up, but we have done some amazing stuff with the ARC community.
Speaker 1:Pretty soon, I'll I'll give you a preview of it. I was gonna do it tonight, but just wasn't ready to give you preview to tonight. But I saw in the ARC community, we're we're I'm so excited about it. So right now, what I'm building out is actually building out the ARC Academy. So on the ARC community, which I'll pull up the website, just buildthearc.com.
Speaker 1:If you want to get on the wait list to to get in, it's buildtheark.com. So it's it's an entire, like, online platform. It's not it's not just a platform for meeting people. That's a big part of it. So we're gonna have our local chapters where you can meet people.
Speaker 1:There's forums, you can ask questions, but we're also building out an entire ebook library. So we're actually finding all these amazing ebooks on all kinds of preparedness and lifestyle and homesteading, off grid living. So we're building out a huge ebook library. Eventually, we would have over a thousand books in the ebook library that you'll have access to for free. Like, you know, you have to pay for them individually.
Speaker 1:The art community, I'll tell you, it will cost money, okay? So it's not a free community. I just wanna get that I'll give you more details on that this week, but we spent a lot of time kinda figuring out how to how to price it appropriately. But, anyways, I'll tell you those is the ebook library. We're also going to have, which I'm building right now, an entire, we call it the ARC Academy.
Speaker 1:So there's gonna be training modules on everything that that relate to preparedness. So if you wanna learn, say, water essentials, or homesteading essentials, or advanced, you know, animal husbandry, I'm literally that's what I've been doing all weekend in this whole past week, past past couple of weeks actually doing this, but we're building out an entire online academy. So you can have all your training modules in there, you can learn all the stuff. So anyway, there's a lot going on. We're gonna set up a business directory.
Speaker 1:So say you've got a business and you wanna kinda put your post your business in there, we're gonna set up a marketplace for buy, selling and trading. So let's just say that you're someone that, is really good at solar, and you wanna tell people, hey, look, I can do solar consultations. You can actually post that in our marketplace. So we're gonna have a buy, sell, trade marketplace as part of the art community. So if you wanna promote your skills or say you're an accountant, right?
Speaker 1:But but you want to work with people that have the same freedom minded perspective as you, then you can post your services on there. So we're trying to build it's not just a preparedness community, it's it's a community of people that share your same values. So whether you wanna have a business promotion on there, find other businesses, get someone to help you out with something, there's gonna be so much on there. So again, I'll get more details coming out to you throughout the week this week. We're gonna be covering a lot this week.
Speaker 1:But if you want to join to get on the waitlist, just go to buildthearc, that's ark.com, buildthearc.com. We've now got I think we're approaching now close to 12,000 people on the waitlist. I do think that we'll probably we haven't defined it exactly, but I think we're gonna limit the amount that we let in in the first go. So that way, it's not just too crazy all at once. So I'll let you know.
Speaker 1:That way, you can kind of mark your calendar, because it's gonna be first come first serve. We're gonna be limited slots for the first round of opening it up. So that way, I'll tell you exactly when the doors are gonna open so you can get in there. You can secure one of those founder slots in the ARC community, and we're gonna go from there. So if you wanna be up if you wanna be updated on it, kept in communication, go to buildtheark.com, just drop in your name and your email.
Speaker 1:And so last thing I wanna talk about just, you know, kind of briefly, and I wanna do some more comments is I'll pull back the comments, actually. We'll we'll jump back in the comments, take a look there. And, Let's see. So I've been going sorry, I've been talking fast tonight, but I've been loving it. I'm just, Yeah, it's been great.
Speaker 1:So okay. Oh, thank you, Sean. Yeah, thank you for that $10 tip. I really appreciate it. It says, Sean says, Great show.
Speaker 1:Thank you, enjoy the show. Really, really appreciate that. Really appreciate it. Okay. Yeah, actually, Magnum says, Thank you, great stream.
Speaker 1:Seems most people on here see things the right way. Glad to see people like minded. We see more clear as believers of Christ. Nailed it. There you go.
Speaker 1:Absolutely. Believer 2,000. That's nice job, Seth. That's a lot of work. Yeah, it has been a lot of work, actually.
Speaker 1:Like, that's the thing with the with the community. It's been a it's a crazy amount of work. And it's also it's cost a lot of money. I if I tallied what we've put into building the art community so far, it's probably over $30,000 that we've put in just to building the community out. So it's been a lot, a lot of work to build it out, but it's something that it's something I feel really, really pulled to do.
Speaker 1:I feel really called to do this, to build this community, to build this art community. And, yeah. So, yeah, thank you. Thank you. It has been a lot of work.
Speaker 1:Let me go see what's going happening over on YouTube. Let's see. Oh, I see. Let's see. Harry Buckeye.
Speaker 1:Let's see. Okay. Ladybug, I have I have gold jewelry and lots of native native Indian silver jewelry that I wear. Hey, that's a great way to hold metal. It is.
Speaker 1:I think it was, in some other countries, whether Argentina or Venezuela, they talked about how people were taking their gold links off of their necklaces and bracelets, gold and silver, and they'd break out those those little links. They'd use those as currency in times of, currency collapse. So, absolutely. Okay. Alright, so I'm not gonna get into the the rapture discussions happening over on YouTube.
Speaker 1:But, yeah, thank you. This is a topic that won't be settled in a live chat. Yes, we're not gonna figure out the rapture in the live chat. Yes. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Oh, great. Thank you. So, Isaac Gold, who says, finally a good show on Sundays to watch. Everyone goes quiet during the weekend. It scares me.
Speaker 1:Yeah. Thank you. Well, that's exactly what I'm trying to do here. Right? I I've been wanting to do this for a long time.
Speaker 1:Actually, my wife, Kate, has been Seth, you gotta do a weekly live show. You gotta do a weekly live show like this. I'm like, I know, but I know, I know. But anyway, I'm done making excuses. That's the point though, is I really wanna have this be a show where we can just get together, we can talk about what happened this week, we can touch base.
Speaker 1:It's really a chance for me to interact with you. That's what I love about this. It's just a chance for us to be just going back and forth with each other, which I really appreciate, because a lot of my shows are very one directional. And so, yeah, I really appreciate that. But also, actually, I'm curious.
Speaker 1:Let me pull it up here. I wanna ask, did any of you watch the show this week with, JR Sweet? Let's see. I will show you right here. Let's see.
Speaker 1:I'll put it on my channel. Yeah, this one right here. If you haven't watched that, I recommend it though. It's very dark and heavy. But, yeah, if you did watch it, this is just part one.
Speaker 1:So part two will be next Saturday. Let me know in the comments what you thought about this, because this is the first. So basically, what we're gonna be doing is now every Saturday so every Sunday, we got we got the live show, Sunday with Seth. And then every Saturday, we're doing series. So the idea, and and we've already got the the next goal built out, is that every Saturday at 10PM, we're publishing a new part of a series.
Speaker 1:So, the first series we're doing is this survivor stories. And so JR Suite was the first interview I did. It's a two hour interview. We broke into two parts. So part one was yesterday, part two is next Saturday.
Speaker 1:And then the following Saturday, we're gonna have some stuff with Max Lowen again. Maybe we'll be doing, potentially Nathan Reynolds, if I can get him on, Kathy O'Brien. So but our first series we're doing is survivor stories, where we're just I'm just helping these survivors of satanic ritual abuse, trauma based mind control programming, MK Ultra, giving them an opportunity to kinda share their story, which I think is really, really important. And we've got some other series that we're getting into as well, looking at the history of propaganda, social engineering. We've got, I think even getting into some things like hidden history, maybe getting into Tartaria, you know, some of those kinds of things as well.
Speaker 1:So every Saturday night, you should know that every Saturday night, 10PM Eastern is a new part, a new show, as part of an ongoing series. So just, yeah, make you aware of that. Okay. Now, again, remember to remember to, put your questions in. Yeah, build her, babe.
Speaker 1:I'm sure Kate is an amazing woman. You know, she is. Yeah, she yeah, Kate is yeah, she's she's an amazing woman. Like, that's, she's a she's a genius for one. She's very beautiful.
Speaker 1:She's the wife obviously, my wife and mother of my of my two beautiful, beautiful children. Yeah. She's absolutely, absolutely amazing. Also, I see razor sharp, you went to buildthearc.com, but you used a c. So it's buildthearc with a k.
Speaker 1:So buildthearcswith a k. I tried to buy buildthearcwith a c just to redirect it, but it's not available to buy. But the link is in the in the description below. So, yeah, so the link is in the description below. Okay.
Speaker 1:Continuing. Oh, also, Ron, n s t x over on Rumble. Thank you for that $10. He says, Seth, two things. One, political ponderology is a great resource to read.
Speaker 1:Thank you. I agree. Actually, not not thank you. I mean, it's a good point. And maybe you found it through me, maybe you didn't.
Speaker 1:I discovered it through Amazing Poly, I think. That's where I think when I first heard about it. Yeah. Great resource. And you say, will the ARC, community benefit from cyber experts?
Speaker 1:Absolutely. So, you know, absolutely. So, I hope to see you in there. And so maybe, you know, you can even give some classes. Actually, this is the cool thing with the ARC community, is that we're also gonna allow you to give classes.
Speaker 1:So say, like so we're gonna have experts coming in, like, you know, Billy Bond for permaculture or, you know, different people for different aspects of just knowledge. We're gonna have, you know, people coming in and doing kinda live q and a sessions where you get to ask your questions specifically. I will also be holding a weekly roundtables. So every week we're meeting together and just having back and forth. I can imagine like a giant Zoom call where you can ask questions, and we can go back and forth.
Speaker 1:That'll be part of it. But we're also gonna be doing something where you so there's a lot of people that will be in this community that have an insane amount of knowledge and expertise. And we have a little small beta testing group of around 25 people. Even with those 25 people, there's an amazing wealth of skills. And so what we're doing is let's just say that you're an expert in cybersecurity.
Speaker 1:So you can do something where you might say, hey, Seth, can I host a, a cybersecurity class? I'll say, absolutely. Let me help you put it together, and we'll put it on the schedule. And then members of the community can they can, sign up for it. This they get notified when it starts.
Speaker 1:And so you can host your own little livestream in the art community to teach about your area of expertise. You can develop guides if you want to. So the whole thing is about creating this community where we're all just helping each other out. We're giving and kind of giving to each other, we're taking from each other, helping, you know, so all coming together. So we're all building our arcs together.
Speaker 1:So yeah, thank you for saying that. Thank you very much for saying that. Okay. Okay, back to the, chat, and let me see if there's any questions, or comments. Let's see.
Speaker 1:Trying to get through get through some of these. Okay, got through that one. Okay, Stella. Seth, I'm trying to invite friends to listen to your show. I told them you're going to be hopeful.
Speaker 1:I loved today's show. I look, I hope that I am being hopeful. I know that I'm covering some some, yeah, I know that I'm covering some some dark stuff, but I'm trying to kind of find the right lens. Actually, quick question. I saw someone in Rumble Mania.
Speaker 1:Is Amazing Polly still doing a podcast? Used to watch her during COVID. Yeah. I she's not doesn't seem to be doing it as much, if at all. I haven't seen her in a while.
Speaker 1:But, yeah, Amazing Polly is great. She's one of one of the the people I watched a lot during, COVID. Oh, but actually, I do I do wanna talk about something, though, in relation to just, you know, having hope. Obviously, you have your faith. Right?
Speaker 1:And that's your own relationship with God. Right? So I'm not gonna try to kinda tell you how to do that. That's a big one for me, is, you know, I really do believe that what I'm doing is in line with my mission from God. Like, that's that's kind of drives a lot of what I do.
Speaker 1:But, you know, one thing I just I've really, one thing that I've really kind of understood in just my own journey to stay positive, because you have to imagine, like, like, my profession is to dig into, like, really dark and scary things. Like, that just that's my job. Okay? Is to go scour the the dark and scary things happening in the world that are threatening, and to come and report that to you and say, hey, here's what I found. This is some scary stuff, but here's what it is, and here's how we can be aware of it.
Speaker 1:So I'm gonna turn my air down real quick. There we go. It's getting a little bit hot. Looks like wear this thick flannel. There we go.
Speaker 1:Anyway. So, yeah, it's a okay. Actually, real quick. I I see a comment. I'll I'll hit that.
Speaker 1:So, rooster twenty six, who says, what will the price point be for the ARC? Like to plan ahead. Okay. So I we haven't announced it, yet, but I'll announce now. So the ARC is going to be the main kind of if you wanna be a member of it, it's $17.76 a month.
Speaker 1:So $17.76. So $17.76 a month. You can also get a you can buy a whole year for I think $1.76, I think for a year. And then we also have a special there's we have a limited slot for, like, the founding lifetime. So you can also become a lifetime member if you want.
Speaker 1:But we, we put a lot of thought into that, into the pricing. And so that was one thing. And so I went from, okay, hey, I wanna offer it for like a dollar a person to some people saying, look, it should be at least $50 a month. We I settled on $17.76 a month for a few reasons. One is that it does cost a lot of money, okay?
Speaker 1:So it's we've had to put a lot of money into building it, a lot of money to keep it going. That's one thing. But one of the biggest things is that, as I thought about it, a real community is people that want to be there. Like, I'm in a lot of big Facebook groups on preparedness, motorcycles, tractors, whatever. I'm I'm in these groups with with, like, 50,000 people.
Speaker 1:It's you know nothing at you know you know no one in there. So I wanted it to be that it was a price point that only people who are serious about being there are gonna be there. Like, I I don't want people to come in thinking, hey, it's a buck a month, or it's $5 a month, and I'll come in, and I'll kind of lurk around, and if whether I stay or not. Like, I really want to be people that have to look at it and say, okay, do I wanna be part of this? Like because that's the thing is that that's just the journey of preparedness.
Speaker 1:Like, you have to be serious about it. And I will say that, look, I've I'm I'm very serious in preparedness. The most important thing in preparedness is actually your community. Right? Whether you are a new person starting out, or whether you're a seasoned, kind of prepper, right?
Speaker 1:The most important thing is is your people. And so it's not to mention, we're gonna have so many resources and training modules, like it's gonna be incredible, the amount of value that's given. But I really wanted it to be that there was a certain barrier that someone had to say, do I really want to do this? Because if it's say it's $5 a month, it's easy to say, ah, I'll join it. But you don't think about whether you really wanna do it.
Speaker 1:I want people to think, do I really wanna do this? Because I only want people to come in that are really serious about being part of this community. I really want that. Like, that's that's such an important part of this. Now, one thing we're doing though, is if there are people that are truly, truly, like, you're struggling.
Speaker 1:Okay? I'm gonna have an option on the page once we launch the art community. There's gonna be option on the whole kind of landing page that if you have true financial hardship, you can email us. Because I don't want the price to be a barrier. Right?
Speaker 1:Because I ask people, sometimes I see, I'll get these emails and someone says, look, I'm 75 years old. I'm on a fixed income. And and I'm just I'm struggling month to month. If so, these people, if you're in that situation and you really wanna be part of the community, we're gonna have an option where you can email me, you can explain your situation. And most likely, if it's a sincere email, I'll I'll I'll I'll sponsor your your admission to the community.
Speaker 1:Like, I don't want price to be a barrier for people that are, like, literally struggling to, like, put food on the table. I don't want that to get in the way of that. But if there's people that are like, well, I'm not sure if I wanna cancel my Netflix and my Paramount or my Paramount Plus, or, you know, I'm not sure if I wanna stop, you know, doing this, you know, to join the community. Like, those people, they're they're not really gonna fit in very well there, because it needs to be people that are really, really serious. And so maybe there's only a couple 100 people that join, but if there's a couple 100 people that join the community, and every single person is just really, really in it, and they really care about it, they really wanna build the community, They wanna join their local chapters.
Speaker 1:They wanna come to the annual arc retreats, all that. Those are the people that I want in there. So, anyway. Anyway, so, yeah, there there you go. So, Builder Babe.
Speaker 1:It says, We the people have been supporting many various Patriot platforms for a long time. It all adds up. $17.76 is affordable, but it also weeds out most of the fakes. It's also a great number. I like it.
Speaker 1:Yeah. We picked that because it's like it's you know, $17.76 was self reliance. Right? That's what it was. The founders were independent.
Speaker 1:They were they were the true preppers. Right? They could survive whatever it took, and I I love going back to that. I love going back to that. That's the thing, though, is that I've never set up any kind of paywall.
Speaker 1:I know I had, you know, with Rise TV, you know, a couple years back, we're doing something, but I've always just put my information out there for free. I run ads, everything, and that's helpful. But, you know, there's a lot of people that are content creators that will say, hey, you know, join my Patreon. It's $10 a month, and, you know, we'll give you this and whatever. And that's great.
Speaker 1:Like, I respect that completely. I've never done that before. I've always just relied on on just, you know, advertising or affiliates or things like that, which has, you know, been really good. But I really wanted this to be something that, you know, a, obviously, it's gonna get you closer to me. So if you wanna join, you know, these weekly calls where you can ask me questions and be really involved and and everything, there's that.
Speaker 1:Okay? That's a big part of it. But I really want it be something that gives you so much value, so that if you if you really are thinking, is it gonna be worth it? That you look you look at the art community, and you look at what it gives you, and you see that you're it's so much value, you're thinking, gosh, this is worth like a $100 a month, right? Because what I don't wanna do is create something that should be worth like 5 or $10 a month, and charge you $17 a month.
Speaker 1:I don't wanna do that. I wanna create something that has so much value that can be life changing for you that you're like, oh my gosh, like, I met this person close to me, and he helped me with this, and I learned this other thing, and I met this other business. There's a woman in there that she specializes in in law and tax law, and how to get outside the system, would, you know, kind of put it lightly. I wanna be something that has so much value that it's it's almost a no brainer. So that's why we land on the price point.
Speaker 1:So anyway, yes, well, you for thank you, Builder Babe for that comment. So, okay. Alrighty, continuing. Yeah. WSA-four, get a logo and sell baseball hats and t shirts.
Speaker 1:Yes, is part of the plan, is to do that. So, okay. Let's see if we've got any other, questions or comments. We're going on 11:20, 11:30. Let's see.
Speaker 1:Oh, okay. Actually, here. Razor sharp. My 40 year old pressure, canner blew up in the kitchen. I can a lot of food.
Speaker 1:I'm going to buy a new one, but only one that holds seven quarts. Suggestions. I don't have any suggestion on the size. I know that I when we bought, I think it was a Let me see if I can find it real quick. I'll tell you the exact, the exact one that we have.
Speaker 1:I think it's this brand is it All American? I'll see if I can figure it out for you, because there's a really good brand that we found. It might be All American. Yeah. I think it's all American.
Speaker 1:So if you're looking for a, let me pull this up real quick for you. If you are looking, for a really good pressure canner, this is what I think this is what we have, since 1930, made in America. They've got yes. Here's their story, right here. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yep. Yep. It was it was the it was the division that Wisconsin Aluminum found is exactly what we have. I forget what size ours is, but this place, this is the this is a generational pressure cooker. I'm serious.
Speaker 1:They're not cheap, you know, they're $3.04, $500. Right here, for instance, is a a 10 quart one for $3.50. I think we got this size right here. We I think we got the, the this is a what? 21 quart?
Speaker 1:25 quart. I think this is what we got right here. But these are they're made America. Like, I'm serious. This thing will last for two hundred years.
Speaker 1:They're so well made. So if you need to buy a new pressure canner, All American. So the website is allamerican1930.com. Okay. And that's also part of what we're gonna have in the art community is those kinds of recommendations.
Speaker 1:We're gonna get exclusive because we have a group of people that are coming in. Like once the community gets large enough, I can then get really good discounts on stuff. Because like, that's how it works. If you have if you say, hey, I've got 3,000 people, and I want you to give us a really good discount on this product, we're gonna be able to get exclusive discounts on products, whether it's storable food, survival gear, all kinds of stuff. So that will also be part of the ARC community.
Speaker 1:So remember, you wanna join it, if you wanna get on the waiting list, it's buildthearc.com. Okay. Back to the, thank you, Summer Rose idiot. I like how Seth ignores the chat fights. Good for him as an integrity.
Speaker 1:I'm I'm not a I'm not a fight kind of guy. You know? I I I sorry. Just I'll pull that up for you. I'm not I'm I'm like, I'm really just a peaceful guy.
Speaker 1:Will fight if I have to, but I don't like getting into that kind of stuff. I ignore I I don't get into, like, the whole Laura Loomer versus Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens versus Tim Poole, and I just I don't know. I just I don't wanna get that kind of stuff energy. So Okay, back to some of the comments. Oh, sorry.
Speaker 1:I was talking about kind of having hope. Alright? And this one, you know, I know we're getting late. This one thing I'll say here is that is that I think what's one thing that's really helped me is just focusing on my real life. Right?
Speaker 1:That's it. It's like again, I spend a lot of my time living in this space where I'm analyzing, I'm looking at these dark agendas, and at the interview with JR Sweet, you know, God bless him, right? That guy's amazing. This is some dark stuff, but I, you know, I've got a two year old and a five year old, and that's, actually, let me see if I can show you a picture. I don't have it on my computer, it's not my phone, but, like, you wanna know what keeps me happy?
Speaker 1:Let's see if this if I can get this to zoom in properly. Will that work? Yeah, there we go. It's kinda it's not not that great of it. You it's kind of overblown, but, like, that's what makes me happy.
Speaker 1:Right? That's my me and my little daughter Grace on my back. I just find that it's really important to just to stay human. I I find that sometimes if I see anti vaxxer yoga yogi saying, you must be vaxxed up to your tits. Like, come on, man.
Speaker 1:Let's not talk like that in this chat. Okay? So anti vaxxer yogi, let's just not talk like this. So, like, just don't, you know, don't come here to fight, right? Don't come here just to argue with each other in the chat.
Speaker 1:You've got better things to do, okay? Just don't come here like a bunch of children and argue with each other and call names. So anyway, sorry. Yeah, there you go. Razor sharp, you'd asked what the website was.
Speaker 1:Okay. Yeah, I see you there, anti vaxxer yogi. Just be careful, man. You're gonna get in trouble in my chat. You're getting trouble.
Speaker 1:Anyway, the website for the pressure cooker, this is it. The URL is allamerican1930.com. Kay or any of the Man in America team, if you could drop that in the chat, it's allamerican1930.com. Okay? Because that's one thing too, is that we're gonna have some guides on, products.
Speaker 1:Between my between Kate and myself, we put so much research into into whatever we purchase. Like, I'm done buying cheap junk that will break in a year. Sometimes you can't avoid it, but whether it's our flour mill, our pressure cooker, oh, like, I try to kinda buy once and cry once. Just buy the good thing that's gonna last you a generation. Like, that's how that's how America used to be.
Speaker 1:Honestly, now we buy this cheap trash that you buy it, and it breaks in a year. You buy another one, it breaks in a year. Like, I'm done with that. Right? We cook with old school cast iron pans or Le Creuset.
Speaker 1:That's all we use. Either old school cast iron or Le Creuset. You know, whatever products that we're using even the Les Crusades, we buy the old Les Crusades, not the new Les Crusades. We buy the old. We Kate will go find on on eBay, and she'll, like, analyze it.
Speaker 1:She's like, okay. This is a nineteen eighties or nineteen 1990s Le Creuset pan because their quality has gotten worse over the years. So we're like, we're very, very strict with what we purchase, and we only try to purchase things that are lifetime purchases. Now some things you can't, but we try our best to. So, anyways, yeah, back to this, again, I'm bouncing around a lot, because I'm real excited, because I'm having a lot of fun, and I think you are too.
Speaker 1:So, yeah. Anyway, what I wanted to say is that, Okay, what Here's a question. Anti, anti vaxxer yogi. Man in America, are you vaccinated? Yes or no.
Speaker 1:Well, I would say, I I think I got vaccines as a kid, you know, before I had any adult. But no, I as an adult, I've never ever, gotten anything. I've I didn't get the COVID jab. I've never gotten anything as a as a as a grown up. So I think as a kid, my parents gave me vaccines, which was kinda normal in the eighties, unfortunately.
Speaker 1:So, but, yeah, I don't know. I'm not. Builder Babe. Yeah. Freeze Dryer is my next big buy.
Speaker 1:Yeah. Freeze Dryer. Yes. That's a good one. Harvest Right.
Speaker 1:Harvest Right is yeah. HarvestRight, that's what we have. I think we have a large. I haven't used it since we moved, but I will be setting it back up again. Yeah.
Speaker 1:HarvestRight, good, good freeze dryers. 70 seven one one zero one, you give me hope and humanity again. I'm not sure if it's me you're talking to, or maybe you're talking to an anti vaxxer Yogi, I'm not sure. But if it's me, thank you. Thank you.
Speaker 1:Yes. Okay. Well, anti vaxxer, I answered your question. Okay? Are you Yes, I answered your question there for you.
Speaker 1:Okay. So Hey, good question. Rumble mania. What is the best well pump if the grid goes down? I don't I don't have a so because I've I've got a lot of generators, I don't I don't have the well pump yet.
Speaker 1:Let me pull up a website for you though. I love doing this stuff too. Flow jack. I think it's flow jack is the spelling well, that's not I'm glad that's not up on screen, because that pulled up something not good. So let's pull this up real quick for you.
Speaker 1:There we go. So, this right here, so flow jack, if you're looking for an off grid well pump, meaning, let's just say you're like me, you've got a well pump that's, 250 or, say, 200 feet down or one fifty feet down. Yeah. If you lose power, you cannot power your well pump. So there's so you're screwed in terms of getting water out of your well.
Speaker 1:Now you have two options. You can either power your well pump through some sort of generator, or you can have a hand system like this, a manual bump pump. So FloJack, check these guys out. It's f l o j a k. You go on here, and they've got different, systems.
Speaker 1:Okay? So they'll walk you through it. But anyways, you come on, and they've got these portable ones, they've got these permanent and deeper ones, and so you can install these. So for instance, this one right here, it's $7.39. It's more expensive one.
Speaker 1:So this one will lift water up to 200 feet. You can assemble it and glue it in the field, and it's three plus gallons per minute. It installs on a four inch wider, or larger casing. They also have the flow jack rush. So this is one that will work for up to 50 feet.
Speaker 1:So if you have a more shallow, well, if you're in a region with a more shallow water table, you can get that. But it's I've looked a lot into these. I will probably get one of these at some point. But yeah, these flow jacks, these are really, really good, for a if the if the power is out, these will still allow you to pull water out of a deep well. Okay?
Speaker 1:So, yeah, that is my recommendation right there. Or you just have a generator, right? Whether it's a solar generator, a, you know, there's you know, generators is a whole different topic. I'm gonna have some guides on generators on the ARC, in the ARC Academy. We'll be a good kind of generators one zero one, because there's a there's a lot.
Speaker 1:Like, I have I'm a little bit kind of crazy. You can go like a crazy prepper. Right? But we have I've got let's see. I think I've got two different solar generators.
Speaker 1:I've got a 1,500 kilowatt or 1,500 watt and a four kilowatt solar generator. I have a gasoline, generator. I have a tractor PTO generator that runs off of diesel, which I think is an eight kilowatt. And then I've also got a, 24 kilowatt Generac whole house generator that runs off of a 500 gallon propane tank. So, yeah, I'm crazy like that.
Speaker 1:And I've got a fireplace with probably, you know, now probably four cords of firewood. So if I have to heat my house, I can heat my house. I've got a well. I've got a big, above ground swing pool if I need to filter the water coming out the swing pool. I'm also gonna I have I haven't put in yet.
Speaker 1:I also have what's called a drive point well. So there's a thing called a drive point well, where if you're in an area with a you can access more of a surface level water table, you can take this this well, and you can literally create one those old school cast iron pump wells off of this driving these drive point wells in. So that's a different discussion, but, yeah, redundancy is key. Oh, man. T g t g Johnson $77.50 bucks, man.
Speaker 1:Thank you so much. Says, Love you, brother, you're doing God's work. Get yourself some more silver with this cash. Thank you. Actually, yeah, pretty soon will be an ounce of silver, right?
Speaker 1:Okay, you know, anti vaxxer sorry, buddy. Sorry. You're out, man. So, vaxxer has been removed. Anti vaxxer yogi has been removed from the show.
Speaker 1:I I'm sorry, man. You're just causing too much trouble. You're causing too much trouble. Right? So, yeah.
Speaker 1:That's how it works. Hey, I'm all for free speech, but this is like this is like my living room. If someone comes into my living room and they're always causing trouble, I'm gonna kick them out of my house. So, you know, I I didn't ban you forever. I only banned you for this livestream.
Speaker 1:So anti vaxxer guy, if you want to come back next Sunday, and you want to behave yourself, you're welcome to participate with the adults. But, anyway, so yep, you're done. Believer 2,000, half my house is full of prepper supplies. Me too, Seth. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yes. Yeah. Yeah. That's it. I'm actually, like, I'm looking into building a pole barn, because I need I need more storage for just stuff.
Speaker 1:Plus, wanna build a work, I wanna build a wood shop. I wanna build a full on proper wood shop. I wanna build a pottery studio. And I wanna build a new filming studio because I'm gonna start doing more content on preparedness. So I wanna build out a studio where I can do, like, gear reviews and how to's and that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1:So I know that's it. Yeah. Yeah. Jn20four, flowjack.com. Is that right?
Speaker 1:Let me try it real quick. Let me see. Is it click? Yeah. That's it.
Speaker 1:You got it. That is it. Yep. So flow jack, flojak.com. Do not go to flojac.
Speaker 1:I accidentally did that. The screen wasn't up, but I did it. Thank goodness, because it was a naughty site. So don't go there, because that's not good. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Joey Meatballs, you've been deported. Yes. Anti vaccine, you've been deported. You've been deported from this. So Okay.
Speaker 1:Let's see if there's any other, questions. Let's see. I think there's a handful, that are coming in. Oh, actually, I asked you what you thought about a JR Sweet interview. Was Isaac Gold who said from YouTube, said, JR Sweet's story is amazing.
Speaker 1:Can't wait to hear the next part. So many things he's saying tracks. I just want to see his scars. Yeah, he didn't, he didn't show me his scars. I didn't ask to see his scars.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because I I don't know. Just I don't know, but what an amazing man. That interview, yeah, that interview, it really, Yeah, that really stirred me. The second half, I'll tell you. Yeah.
Speaker 1:It's funny. Sorry. Believer 2,000 lol doing it now. Oh, man. I have to meet you sometime.
Speaker 1:Not sure if you're talking about meeting me or someone else, but I will meet you. And the thing is that the art community, we're gonna do meetups. Like, I can't wait to do that. I'm so excited. So we're gonna have you're gonna have different chapters.
Speaker 1:So I'm gonna be in the, I think, the Northeast chapter is what it is, but we're also gonna we're gonna do an annual ARC meetup, which I'm so excited. Maybe we'll do, like, a camping trip or something. Right? Or, like, a three day thing where we rent, like, a campground or something, and or maybe we go to, Polyface Farms, like, a three day event with the ARC community and Joe's Joel Salatin or who knows? But, yeah, I can't wait to spend more time in person with you all.
Speaker 1:I'm I'm really excited about that. So okay. Anyway, yeah, j r sweet. So next week, this actually, no. This is Sunday.
Speaker 1:So this coming Saturday, is part two. And part two is yeah. Part two is, is really heavy. He gets into Disneyland a lot more in part two. He talks about he talks about his the hunting, the dangerous game, and a lot more.
Speaker 1:So make sure you tune in Saturday night. Okay. Atlas BE, waiting to hear what kind of bikes you ride, Seth. So, I'll believe her 2,000 and you as in me. Okay, great.
Speaker 1:Just real quickly. So I don't I sold all my motorcycles because I with the kids, you know, with the two kids. So I my my favorite was a Yamaha MT o nine. I had a pretty awesome Yamaha MT-nine. Actually, let me see.
Speaker 1:Let me see real quick if I can, pull that up real quick, just for giggles. Maybe I won't be able to. Yeah, it's okay. I'm not gonna mess with it right now. So, yeah.
Speaker 1:Anyway, so Yamaha MT-nine, that was when I lived in New York City, I had that one. I've had a yeah, I've had a bunch of different, different bikes. I'm actually my what I wanna buy sometime this year maybe is get an electric bike. There's a there's a company called, Stark. They make this bike called a Varg, and it's a, it's a incredibly powerful dual sport.
Speaker 1:So I can do off road and on road, battery powered. Something like if for instance a, it's just fun. Like, I my my first bike I think I got was, like, maybe 11 or 12 years old. I got a Honda, a Honda, XR100, 100 cc four cylinder, which was awesome. But, yeah, it's called a, this one, I've I've been really eyeing it.
Speaker 1:Actually, I'll pull it up real quick and show you just because why not? It's called the this is it right here. Yes. I'm I'm looking into maybe getting one of these guys right here. It is a, 80 horsepower, like, 600 pounds of torque.
Speaker 1:It's a it's a battery. Anyway, just, it's an e bike that you can take. It's off road and on road, so it's street legal. Cause I'm thinking that, if for some reason there are these energy lockdowns, you know, handful of things, like, can charge this off of my solar. So I've literally got free transportation on road, off road.
Speaker 1:The other thing too is if you read about any kind of really kind of dire, kind of stuff hits the fan situations, if you've got if you have an e bike with night vision, and you can ride at night silently, it's one of the best ways of transportation, like, ever. If you look at transportation in a kind of disaster, kind of post collapse scenario, if you have an electric bike that that is a dark colored bike, and you can if you have night goggles, I don't have night vision goggles. Have I have thermal, but not night vision. But if you've got that set up and you can ride on the road because they're so quiet, man, you're you're you're gold. So anyway, I, I digress.
Speaker 1:So coming back into the chat chat. Yeah. There you go. Yeah. WSA4.
Speaker 1:I have an e bike. They keep getting better. Yeah. Krabby Cracker's silent dirt bike. That's it.
Speaker 1:Yep. So Okay. Well, let me see. Yeah, Krabby I got an e bike, but still have two Triumphs. Let me know what kind of e bike you have.
Speaker 1:I was looking at a couple different, so, yeah, let me know. I also see Atlas, BE. Let's see Atlas BE. What did you say there? So maybe you can email Seth.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah. What kind yeah. Okay. Well, yeah, guess you got my request. You got the, you got the answer.
Speaker 1:Three sixty Attic, e bikes will give you nut cancer. I hope not. They're gonna increase my, increase my, my taking of, Laotriel. So, Ronnie Rock Enoch, who says that there's another company that said they're gonna be better than the Stark. Let me know.
Speaker 1:Let me know. Yeah. So believer, believer g t sorry, believer 2,000. Something I recommend is a PTO generator runs on your your rear tractor PTO. Yes.
Speaker 1:So I do I haven't used it yet. I have a I think it's called a Winsome, I think it's called. It's a I think it's a seven or eight kilowatt, PTO generator. So, it's got a yeah. So my I have a diesel tractor.
Speaker 1:I have a Kubota b x twenty three eighty. And so, I can run, you know, not my entire house, but eight kilowatts is pretty big. That's a lot of energy. So that way, I can convert diesel fuel, which stores better than gasoline, though I need to get my tank filled. I I just called about it, a company this week about filling up my tank.
Speaker 1:So I've got a 300 gallon, diesel tank I can fill up and then use that to power my tractor, which then would power my, a lot of my house. So, yeah, PTO generator is a, absolutely great thing. For people who don't understand what that means, so, tractors, especially more farm use tractors, they have, what they call PTO, it's a sensor power takeoff. It's basically, it's what you use in the back of your tractor to power your implements, like your mowing stuff, or, there's various things like a backhoe or whatever. So, anyway, actually, the backhoe is probably more hydraulic anyway.
Speaker 1:You can attach these generators to the back of your tractor. So you can convert the engine of your diesel tractor into electricity through a PTO generator. So that's what that is. So, okay, I think I'm gonna start wrapping up. It's almost midnight.
Speaker 1:I I think I could I could keep going. I'm just having a lot of fun. But let's see how the YouTube chat is. Okay. Okay.
Speaker 1:So someone's saying, ladybug is saying, so Saved By Grace saying, please join the arc. I'm sure there'll be others in your area. So it's a r k. Right? So, yes, that's also part of what we're gonna doing.
Speaker 1:So a, it's it's very private. So, like, if you're in Facebook groups, it's not, you know, it's gonna be private. So absolutely private, the ARC community. But part of what's gonna be, really cool on there is that now you can select, like, how detailed you want people to be able to see, but you can actually there's a function where you can pull up a map, and you're gonna be able to find the members in your area. Now some people, they might just say they only wanna show the state that they're in.
Speaker 1:So you still have your own privacy, but for some people though they're joining, they might say, hey, I'm in this zip code. Right? Or I'm in this city. So what you can do then is you can literally pull up a map and you can see whatever members are close to you. You can click on their profile, you can see what their what their skill set is, what their specialty is, you know, read about them, you can direct message them, so you can DM them, and you can build these relationships.
Speaker 1:But also, there's gonna be the local chapters, so you can meet people in your local chapter, and you can say because we're gonna have chapter heads that are actually organizing their local chapters. So you might have, say, for instance, once a month is your local chapter meeting, where you maybe do you're doing an online meeting, you know, with your kind of local chapter, but then maybe then you have, like say, every quarter you'll have your local meetup. So that's the whole thing is like, is that people be able to build relationships. So that anyway, thank you for recommending that. Okay.
Speaker 1:Okay. Hey, Isaac Gold who says, this was a great show, very positive, just what we need. You know, it's amazing to me. It's it's absolutely honestly, it's so funny. It's amazing to me that I can do a show about, like, how a 100,000,000 people might be dying in a war, which I'm not smiling because it's funny.
Speaker 1:It's just like, it's actually terrible. But, like, we covered some really, really heavy stuff in this show today. So the fact that you can still tell me that you can still tell me that this show was very positive, it was just what you need, like, that really warms my heart. Because, again, I I'm a firm believer that happiness and all that is not about avoiding the scary things. Like, that's not it.
Speaker 1:Like, to me, that's ignorant bliss, and I don't want that. Right? I I wanna know the scary truth, but I I wanna go to face the scary truth with a smile on my face, with friends by my side, with people I care about, with purpose, and that's what this is. So, yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1:So thank you very much, Isaac Gold. And yeah. Okay. I think that's it. I'm not gonna pull the chat up anymore.
Speaker 1:You know, though, I keep looking. I I said, I'm like, should go to bed, I keep looking, I pull the chat up, and I see these really nice questions, and and then, oh, good, here, RK Adventures, looking forward to your art community, bro.
