The Future is Personalized Preparedness and EDV

0:00Dave Roberts here. There you are surrounded by fans, sharing wings, sharing drinks, high-fiving random strangers. Everybody remembers the game. Nobody remembers the guy coughing behind you until a few days later. At 2 a.m., you wake up with a fever and your throats on fire. Now what? Urgent care, clothes, ER, slam, telehealth, maybe, but the pharmacy's clothes. You needed a medical emergency kit. These aren't first aid kits. They contain essential prescriptions used for over 30 common conditions. Sinus and ear infection, UTI, stomach bug, travelers diarrhea, and more. On hand before you need them. Use your doctor-developed guidebook to select the right prescription or call their telemedicine doctor standing by. It's like an urgent care and drugstore at home. When you're sick, traveling, or stranded, you'll wish you ordered a medical emergency kit. Order online in minutes and it's shipped to your door and say $45 with my promo code blue at urgentcarekit.com-slasblue. That's promo code blue at urgentcarekit.com-slasblue.

1:10What is going on in my world, PBN family? Let's have a look. The age of personalized preparedness is upon us and I'm taking full advantage of it. We had a little bit of rain overnight. As you can see, we have in my little area here we've got 2,370 customers affected by 59 power outages. Thankfully, I'm not one of them. Thankfully, I'm not one of them, but even if I were, I've done this show on solar power before. In fact, we used to do our live show exclusively off of our points 0 generator years ago when they were a sponsor. If you're out there blue eddie, if you're out there, you go flow. You want me to do my live show off of your generator to prove proof of concept, if you will. But where we're at right now, man, where we're at right now is bepreparedsolutions.com. We're looking at the be prepared dashboard. Because this is personalization

2:10of preparedness. We look down here at the scrolling news. We look at the view of where you live or where I live in this particular situation. I get a feel for what's happening. We talk about preparedness. I want to be able to click a link about flash flood warning and read this thing and see what's going on. This was from yesterday. Flash flood warnings, been issued for centuries or do you have a word flooded road on the one this was before the rain. This is the type of stuff that I want to know when I'm starting out my day, right? I want to be able to see what's going on. This is a wild story. This is not a wild story that happened halfway across the country. You know, this isn't a clancy trial thing. This is man arrested after brandishing a knife at a children's soccer game in Chesterfield County close by. We've got all kinds of things that we can dig into

3:12here. It looks like the Tuckahoe area has got a bunch of power outages. We can look at our at our emergency alerts. As you can see, despite the weather, no big deal going on there. We do have another cloud flare situation that's affecting discord Shopify, peloton of all things and various websites cloud flare incorrect geo location for some cloud flare work users. We're going to look at our air quality. We're going to look at our James River. Oh, you know what? Tonight, maybe a night for fishing. Now that I see what I mean, but you see how this works, right? You see how because this is the deal with the Be aware dashboard that I love is it pulls your mind back to where it needs to be. It becomes a part of your EDV, right? You know about EDC. EDC is a thing. You know about EDV. Do you know about what you're viewing every day and how it

4:13affects your life or what are the things that you should be viewing every day, right? For years, guys, I existed in a world where I was getting updates about Beirut. I was getting updates about Afghanistan. I was getting updates about threats to military bases in Germany. And you know what I mean? Nothing wrong with it. You know, it was an introductory for a civilian like myself. It was an introduction to Intel, right? It was not organized. It was not, you know what I mean? It was, but for me, it was an introduction. It was like, look, you can get access to a lot of information that not everybody gets access to through text messages. And maybe some of it can help you. Some of it most certainly can motivate you. And every so often, you're going to get an alert that's going to be close to you. And you're going to say, Oh, okay, take note. This is a new age, folks. Do you know what I mean?

5:14This is a new age. We have reached an age now where your EDV should be highly personalized, right? Like your situation, the information you view highly personalized, now you can create that you're on your own. You don't need a company to do it for you. You get smart with artificial intelligence and what to feed it in your local area and local information. You can do it yourself or or you can go to be prepared solutions.co. You can use the promo code PBN 20. Well, you can try the free three day trial first and foremost and see how you like it, right? Then you can use PBN 20 and get 20% off and you get the B aware dashboard, right? Live every single day. And here's another thing about the B aware dashboard. Be strategic, right? You tell it, you decide the area that it looks into. So like in a week or so, my wife is going to be doing some traveling. Well, my B aware dashboard is going to be working double time because I'm going to want to know

6:16what's going on where I'm at. I'm going to know what's going on where she's at. And I'm going to convey that stuff to her too, right? And I may even give her the login, right? Probably should have gave her the login already to be honest with you. So, you know, these are this, there's so much personalized information that you can pull from nowadays. But the dashboard itself here would be prepared solutions is just, yeah, it's you. It's your world, right? And you see a look, you see an address, it's not even really an address, it's a street on my B proprietary dashboard that I'm sharing with you. Do you think that's my address? Right? So you don't have to give all of your information up on operational security side of things, right? To get a great understanding of sort of what's going on, you know, in your area, I get all this information for those of you who are just listening to the podcast, I get all this information surrounding the Richmond area about what's going on. It doesn't have to be right on me, you know. But if you want it to be, it can be,

7:20right? Go over here to top stories, just take a look at the Richmond police investigate shooting, that left one man critically injured, fatal crash at Stony Point Fashion Park, police arrest suspect in Virginia State University shooting the wounded five. And look, this stuff, you know, you got to, you got to have some armor to look at these threats. But these threats for me, what they do for me, when I read this stuff, I read this stuff to see what's the overall condition around here, right? I'm sort of building a long bay and this goes into that sort of everyday viewing thing, right? You spend all your time on X, learning about California, Nick Shirley, Haitian criminals, you're right, you're filling your mind with a, with us, with a sort of outline of a certain part of the United States. Meanwhile, you should be building an outline of what's happening locally. You should be building trending events and changes to your operating area, right?

8:26To understand what's going on in your world, because look, nobody is going to give you a report and tell you, hey, are you paying attention to what's going around on in your world? Nobody on Fox is going to say, oh, by the way, let's do that new segment that is what's going on in James Walton's world. You know, it doesn't work that way. It simply doesn't work that way. So very important that you and look, I have this up here as an example, because these guys are our number one tech partner, right? Be prepared solution.co has not only given us full access to their technology here, but on the back end, they've created technologies that are unbelievable, you know? And I guess I probably should show that off. So let's kill the dashboard real quick and we'll jump into the search, because it's really amazing what they've done. And I don't know if I've showed it off yet on the on the show. So let's double check. So we're killing off the PBN or the B aware dashboard,

9:36and what we're going to look at right now is the PBN brain, if you will, right? The brain of the prep abroad testing network. And let's, you know, let's do this. Okay. Dave Roberts here. There you are surrounded by fans, sharing wings, sharing drinks, high-fiving random strangers. Everybody remembers the game. Nobody remembers the guy coughing behind you until a few days later at 2 a.m. you wake up with the fever and your throats on fire. Now what? Urgent care, close. ER, slam, telehealth, maybe, but the pharmacies close. You needed a medical emergency kit. These aren't first aid kits. They contain essential prescriptions used for over 30 common conditions, sinus and ear infection, UTIs, stomach bug, travelers diarrhea, and more. On hand before you need them.

How do I get better intel or intelligence? Right? Let's just see what comes up. And what for those of you who are just watching or listening rather. What we're doing right now is we are at bepreparedsolutions.co slash pbn slash search. We're going to put this as a permanent link up on my website, prepabroadcasting.com so that you'll always be able to query the full archive of pbn's history. Right now we are not accessing all of the information on pbn. We're still curating. We're still transcribing 7,000 episodes. But you're again it goes back to that personalization. This is the

13:45world now. I saw this world coming if you remember back when red beacon daily news started, which we will get back to red beacon daily news once national preparedness month is over. It's just too much. It's too much for me to do and it's too much for you to listen to nobody's going to get anything out of it either way. But when we started when I started seeing this micro technologies, right? The micro innovations in off grid technologies physical and then the micro innovations in sort of artificial intelligence and other intel related platforms being built. I said to myself, oh, prepping is changing. Prepping is changing in a big way and it's going to get way more efficient in a hurry. Okay. How do I get better intel or intelligence? I plug this into the search, be prepared solutions dot code slash pbn slash search. It's not that much to write. I'll link to it down below in the show description. You have to check it out. I don't want to dawdle too much because

14:46I don't want to do a big long show because you got to listen to the sky comment national preparedness month show today. It has all our information about our emergency comms check ins weekly emergency comms check ins we may get to that in this show too. So the archive this this brain of pbn gathers information right from various episodes right and then it spits out an archive answer. It spits out an answer that comes from all the podcasts that it's pulling information from the archive answer here says to improve intelligence gathering understand the structured process used by the intelligence community which involves planning collecting analyzing disseminating information can also learn to collect and analyze signals intelligence or sigen. Using tools like wide band communication receivers or software defined radio sdr dongles to monitor radio transmissions and build a target packet from the observed signals now that goes on and on all

15:51of that comes from these shows okay understand the intelligence gathering process factor fiction that's source one learn to collect and analyze signals intelligence for situation awareness covert communications and surveillance right factor fiction man I and heard that show in a while chaos or clarity but the the second show is covert communications and surveillance with all hazards comp prep which is a great show there's a daily audio cash from October 16 2021 actionable intelligence right there is another one from actionable intelligence and David Vine introduces himself joined by Michael Klein from reality check right this is so cool because what's so cool we're just getting into it like let's watch let's watch how do I get into these guys we'll go with the DAC right boom so we click the DAC and it expands out on it local information while looking at this

16:54guy right here this little bit is pulled from the show this right here is my my words however when you're talking about making real preparedness decisions real ones you know real decisions that are going to affect you and your family where you live and if you don't believe that's me this is what you do you click listen on pbn and it takes you right to the episode right or we scroll down here we've got our factor fiction we've got our covert here here here's another great thing you take the episode here right same episode we were just looking at actionable intelligence what this does is even cooler so now you get you get all the answers and all the stuff that's pulled from the show that matches your question right let's take one let's take let's take a longer one this one we want I gather what you let's do that where is I'm missing something here oh I think I think that

18:09feature is not here I'm missing it we're trying to break this up real quick okay do I have to click it well what we had and I guess it's not on here right now this thing is actively improving and changing all the time we're looking at the best way to do it but what this used to have was a a place where we could play this directly from the show we'll make sure we get that back as I was really cool underneath here there was a underneath of the quote from the show there be a play button you press the play button and it plays the quote from that portion of the show very cool very very cool Tyler ready to hear from 2311 racing victory lane yeah it's even better with chumba by my side one of the best things about it with the scene of dot call away from the ads right take you away from the ads altogether if you hate the ads okay this is the only recurring membership option that we're ever going to have here at pbn going forward okay and

19:10it's really here for one purpose to get rid of the ads right you listen to the podcast go oh my god I can't stand it I feel like we do a great job at limiting ads we do about one to two ads per show not on the front end of the back end but within the show right you go to the speaker it's linked down it's in all the shows descriptions right it's the pbn supporter right you join the pbn supporter for five bucks a month the ads go away they're going you listen to speak you listen on speaker the ads are going I think they're gone on speaker only they might be going on spot I get to sign up and double check that because they don't let you do anything on speaker in terms of like seeing how the supporter works I thought I was going to be able to migrate all the hosts are all the members rather the long term members over to speaker no sweat but they don't know answer for that whatsoever but speakers been with us for a long time they've done a solid forever all through covid when we were getting completely tossed off of every single platform

20:14and they've just always been there you know they've always been solid so the the the ads generate revenue for us if you hate them and you want to get away from five bucks a month and the bonus to that is that then you get access to the entire speaker archive of members only podcasts that exist there and they're all great they're all huge they're all tremendous shows I'm going to release one today that is all about the anthropic guy coming out and saying we're all going to die from AI and what that'll look like and how to avoid it right if AI is really going to come kill everybody what do you have to do to avoid that and there's a whole breakdown on you know the preparedness steps for that so if you want to get those kinds of things and that's what you got to do if you want to dig in deeper to the personalized preparedness and the uh the sort of EDV mentality like this is a direction we're going here at PBI and we're going this direction because I think there's value there if I look at it this way if there's value for me then there's got to be value for you

21:18right there's got to be something there and it's it's not just be prepared solutions right.co we've got a couple shows couple new shows on the horizon I'm not ready to announce them today but we've got a couple new shows on the horizon that are going to be very different very fun uh shows that with everything that's happening in the world we have to figure out sort of what PBN is you know every couple years or so we do a bit of a change in terms of like our intro outro stuff and sort of the feel of the network right and we're about to get a big change and one of the one of the reasons we're going to get a big change guys is because we had I was if you didn't hear it you should listen to it if you got a lot of time because it was a great time we're doing this national preparedness month series you know I'm trying to get great people on the talk for about 15 to 20 minutes a day do something unique and fun all through the month every day of the month and they're all up at Prepper Broadcasting Network

22:21they're all up on our rumble and that kind of thing um and I bring Judson Carol on and I'm like let's do like 15 20 minutes um tell him about what you do because you know he's done amazing things for us here at PBN just go search herbal medicine for preppers on the Prepper Broadcasting.com website and you'll be like wow. Long story short an hour 50 goes by and we're still chatting it up having a good time and we came to a conclusion well he came to a conclusion as we were sort of breaking down society and its shortcomings and you know what's the problem lately and what's the core of the why are people so weird while interaction so weird wise TV so bad wise entertainment the nightmare and we basically arrived at this idea that like you know it's no fun anymore fun is not a thing anymore in terms of entertainment fun is not a thing really very much in terms of television in terms of human interaction even in terms of interaction like in the family right we got places to go we got

23:24practices to do we got people to see we got homework to get done you know then we got instead of like something fun at bedtime we have a bedtime routine we have this routine of that routine a routine and I think but just as sort of as crazy as it was in 2018 to say hey the real mental stability that people need is going to come from PBN in the Prepper Broad and preppers at large right the prepping concepts are going to actually benefit if you if you told someone that the preppers are going to own the mental health because they're going to be able to actually teach you how to how to withstand what's happening in the world around you they're going to improve your mental health because that's why we call it your path-facts stability right now so that's exactly what we do man you're looking out at the world you're going oh my god things are so unstable it's so crazy it's so nuts you go listen to PBN and you start growing food you start collecting water you start you know all these things start training different skills practicing you know old lost skills

24:30and all the sudden you feel like oh I'm resilient I got some resilience all the sudden right you start listening to reliance oh oh there's a god who loves me out there there's a god who loves me out there and is underneath me and everything and in every way he'll take my burdens he'll take my woes he's not a you know he's not a genie but he's there and his framework's there and his books there and it's always been there and it's always and you add this layer of stability to your life that I think people who are really suffering can can pull from right and if you told somebody that that that level of stability was going to come from the prepping community that the petrified terrified sort of a paranoid prepping community you would laugh right but that's that's what I said back in 2018 and now here we are almost 10 years later and I think that the next thing for us to do and it's because preppers are such an amazing group of people you know it really

25:33it's hard to understand if you know if you know if you know PBN really well if you know our friends really well then you already know that's the truth but we can be called upon in these times and we answer the call and we deliver and I think right now I think the next crazy step for at least for PBN right the next crazy step is let's have some fun with all this right let's have some fun with all of this stuff so we got a couple new shows on the on the horizon we've got red beak and media.com just to expand a little bit and to enjoy a little bit and to really turn things back to to fun and life and living and breathing as opposed to everyday calamity every day this side verse that side every day this complaint every day this guy did this wrong or this product released in its sucks or this movie released in its sucks or this video game released in its sucks and here's why and I know all the reasons why it sucks because I'm an expert at everything except my own life I

26:33have to take 15 medications to get through a single day but I'll tell you how I feel about super girl so all that being said folks I hope you enjoyed to be aware dashboard you're going to be seeing a lot more of it we will plug it in various regions around the country okay but I'm going to try to open the show with it a lot because it's it's just a better report than the drudge report you know what I mean it does more for me you know to do more for you than you know going to some random fox news website if you like what you see you can use the link down below to be prepared solutions that's our PBN link you will get 20% off of all their services if you use that link or you can use the promo code PBN 20 and you'll get 20% off also you sign up for all of their services right your your plan builder your be aware dashboard all of that uh you get 20% off for the year

28:36programs and means to find you find your house find you know they'll just I wouldn't wish it on you but I'm just letting you know that like if you're weighing the cost of putting some information in the be prepared solutions platform to spit out a preparedness plan for yourself and your family that you can print right and and really put to use to better yourself for the next time a power outage comes or a hurricane or major situation like it's way worth it it's way worth divulging that little bit of information about yourself onto the internet because all that information's out there already and you got artificial intelligence agents that are scrolling all over the internet and and by the way like they they can be as immoral as they like now and anthropic and just say oh they went rogue I don't know what happened they went rogue we apologize this is where we are right so we to get off grid or use the technology to your advantage all right
