War Forever...

0:00The conflict with Iran is entering its... 36th month. Iran has been completely disarmed for almost the entire war but somehow they're still shooting rockets off of rocket launch sites. We've won the war 16 times over yet we're still over there. The straight-up war moves is safe yet we're still filling it with our navy. PBN family, anybody tired of the... just tell me what's going on with Iran. Donald! Donnie! What's really going on? But tell me. Tell me this real strategy.

1:01Just tell us the real strategy here, right? Please. Are we waiting for the Iranian people to rise up? It'll never happen. Some people, as I mentioned, some people don't rise, okay? And I mean this collective. I mean this national nations. Some nations, the people in those nations don't rise. They've been beaten in the submission. They killed 40,000 of them in the streets a year ago or whatever it was. You know what I mean? It's a different thing. They're not in America. They don't have guns. They don't... this is not... You got to wrap your head around this, right? I hear things about the Kurds. I hear things about the turds. I don't know. I... I'm done with it. Let's wrap it up. Let's get to help back home, right? I think we've made our point to Iran pretty clearly. Here's an idea. Don't give these people money anymore. And then we can avoid these wars altogether. Don't help them rebuild. They're not going to rebuild. They're going to rebuild rocket launchers. We did the same thing in Palestine. What are we doing?

2:07TBN Family, these political rants are moving to the supporters side of the podcast. These one off. If it's if it's a political-based show or if it's a show built around a hard truth, we're always going to discuss the hard truth. But these sort of rants that I have to have, you know what I mean? I just have to have. But because of what we're doing at PBN now, because of the overall content scope, like I don't know. I know there's a group of you out there who really enjoy me ranting about all these things. And look, there are important conversations we had about politics for sure. We got to have them. And I'm you know, there will be a decision process. Don't worry. But I've decided that if it's going to be one of these long-winded political rants, then we're going to move it over to the membership side going forward. Just because I don't know. It just it feels to me like the right thing to do. I'm pushed and pulled in certain directions by

3:10more than just analytics by more than just, you know, funds, right? So to me, it makes sense. It's easy. The supporters side at Speaker is pretty easy to manage. It's a great way for me to throw podcast content in there just for supporters, right? The PBN membership is going away probably within a month or two at the most. I'm getting like, without even knowing it's going away, I have gotten a waterfall of people who need as particularly those who are paying 60 per year who are tapping out of the PBN membership. And for money reasons, for financial reasons. And it started happening early or late last year, which put me on this idea of the the supporter side and then also the red beacon media one-time payment. Because I don't want I don't want people to lament PBN, you know what I mean? That's the last thing I want. The last thing I want is

4:12for people to be like, oh my god, here comes a $60 bill from PBN for my annual membership. If you don't got it, you don't got it. You know what I mean? Email me now and cancel now. I do not want to be. There's so much for people to worry about these days. The last thing I want to be is the thing that you're worrying about in the in the future. You're not going to hurt my feelings. Don't worry about it. Okay? So that's where my head is at with all of this. Now I, the membership side that are supporters side rather on speaker, you can sign up on speaker, just look up the Prepper Broadcasting Network. I think we have a link down below even or maybe not. I might have moved it. It's really easy to sign up. It's five bucks a month and it also removes all the ads. So you have no more ads on the podcast. I want you to support her. So if you don't like the ads, it's pretty easy way out. Okay? It's a good service. That's why I'm keeping it. I think it makes sense. I think it's definitely affordable. I look at my own financial picture and I say to myself,

5:16what do I spend five bucks on? Do you know what I mean? Like, what could I cut if I needed to put five bucks into the PPN supporter side? And it wouldn't be tough. You know what I mean? It wouldn't be tough for me to find something silly to put five bucks into. So I feel like, you know, it's not, it's not insane for me to ask that of you if you want to listen to the podcast without ads, which generate us a lot of money the ads do. And to also put a bunch of content on the membership side or on the supporter side. So that's where these things are going to live going forward. I'm not trying to lure you over there. I'm not trying to say my political answer so good that you're only going to get them if you pay for. Like I said, if it's a political politically based show, like a surviving America on whatever topic, right? That's not what I mean. What I mean is a disorganized sort of wreck of a show where James bounces from one topic to another topic to a totally different topic and gets lost and talks halfway about that topic

6:19before jumping into a new one and you wanted to hear and finish up about the left. It's a certain kind of podcast that exists in in the PBN proper. And well, quite frankly, like the shows that we pull from the archives are phenomenal, right? The daily interviews that we're doing all through September are very orderly and nice and perfect. And I'm not looking to turn PBN into something orderly and perfect either because, you know, it's me. But all that said, man, there are some shows that are just so much chaos and anarchy that I don't know. I think there's a certain group of you that like them and you guys are probably supporters or you will be supporters, right? You'll say to yourself, let's kick the ads out, let's get the good to bad and the ugly and get them the supporters side. And the supporters side is also chock full. It's pages long of great

7:20podcasts on all kinds of topics prepping related and beyond really. So this is just a heads up podcast for that because I feel myself guys all the time wanting to go for the phone and wanting to start bitching and moaning. You know, there's a very real sort of Virginia politics nerve in me that is burning and that may become a show for everyone. Some sort of spin off or build off the mother of mayhem because Virginia politics right now is just so unbelievable. It's unreal, you know, it really like people would say Virginia is going to become the new California and it's here. You know what I mean? It's here, except for the guns. But I'm talking this year like irrationality, idiotic, you know, use of the political influences. It's here and it's crazy to watch. So that could be a thing. That type of a political show is not something that will wind up on the

8:22supporters side. But you know, if I'm going to get on and just vomit from the mouth about all the things that are new and interesting and you know, a pain in the ass and whatever. Those things will likely wind up on the supporters side. So head over there. Particularly consider it for those of you who are or were members who are either getting out of it because we're shutting it down or getting out of it because it's not a, you know, something you wanted to deal with on the five dollar a month side or the I'm sorry, the $60 a year side. But you know, it's a good opportunity. Like I said, if you're listening to the ads and you don't like listening to the ads and I try to limit the ads, you know, I really do. I try on shows that are like 20 to 30 minutes. I try to limit it to one ad in the show. If it's over an hour, I put like a couple ads and a couple ads sections in the show. Sometimes they have two ads in one and then one ad in the other. It's just it is what it is, man. I don't know what to tell you. You know what I mean? The network, you know, cost money to run.

9:25But and the ads are, you know, on the on the revenue side, they're really good. I wish I could manage them more in terms of like, can we run certain types of ads? Really? I don't really like hearing the casino ads on PBN. That makes me a little pissed off. And you know, I haven't reached out and asked. And that's a really important thing, right? It's really important for people to understand. Rather than bitching about a thing, you probably should ask. So maybe I should ask Donald Trump politely to wrap this war and I ran up. What do you think? Just wrap this thing up so we can move on because I feel like I'm stuck between a completely irrational democratic base and democratic leadership and democratic party, just totally and completely irrational. Just like the height of irrationality. None of it makes sense to me. But then on the other side, I have a guy who is, you know, he's done a lot of great things. I mean, epic things for the future of this country. I'm not denying that.

10:30But the sort of hyper positivity on everything that he does is a little annoying, you know. The over the top sort of glaze as the kids would call it on everything that the man does. It's it'll wear you out, you know what I mean? It'll be like, I hear what you're saying. But I'm seeing something that looks exactly the opposite. Who are you going to believe me or your own eyes? That's the Donald Trump thing, right? Like, I ran his mid-attack and he said, you know, the war's over. Don't you worry about it. We're bringing the truth. It's done. It's a done deal. It's over. I don't know. I found it more beneficial just to not engage the brain. To engage the brain in the things of value only. I'm starting to wonder if dementia and Parkinson's and all this stuff is simply born out of the fact that like the longer you're on the planet, the more you

11:31fill your head with stuff, right? There's got to be limits, right? It's a bowl. It's not a bottomless pit. So I don't know. We'll have to see. We shall see. So PBN family, you've got enough to listen to today. Please try. Just try one of those essential provisions. They're amazing. We've had them as a sponsor before in the past. They weren't really popular with you guys. But beyond just food storage, like a real like heat and ready meal, like if you're putting pool of meals from the freezer and heat them up for dinner, you're probably spending the same amount of money as you would be for a an essential provisions meal that's going to give your kid, you know, or your husband or your, whoever you 500 grams of or 500 plus calories. And like 19, what was it? 22 grams of protein, something like that. Grass fed, grass finished, unbelievable bison protein. Stuff's good man. You

12:37know what I mean? Stay tuned too, by the way. You know, we're doing this all month. I'm really proud of what we're doing for national preparedness month. I think we've got a lot, we've got a lot of people in the chamber to share with you, you know, and that's one of the things that I don't do enough of either because guess what? Sometimes I'm over here doing shows where I'm complaining about the Democrats or the Virginia Democrats or Donald Trump or the right price of living in the United States, right? I think there's a place in time for that, but I also think there's a priority shift that has to happen here at PBN because prepping is not just prepping for disaster anymore, guys. Like we, we between preppers and home stethers, like we are the infrastructure for the new style of living and surviving in the United States. And I just think that my mission, my personal mission is it's not to be on a microphone yapping about, you know, this one and this new story and

13:41another illegal murder and this and that and the other thing. And there's a time and place for it. I think the place for it is on the supporter side. And I don't want it to get in the way of really innovative and really awesome things that are happening out there in the world that'll actually really help you, right? It'll help you way more if you stock your shelves with essential provisions or even just stock your camping bags or your hunting bags this year with essential provisions. Then it will to hear James lament, you know, Abigail Spanberger for 15 minutes, right? So I'm trying to draw that balance. This is my best move. I hope you guys appreciate it and understand that, you know, what we do here matters. And I'm really proud of it. And I think we are, to me, it feels like we are kind of molding ourselves with the programming in the current situation with PBN into a really valuable and important entity for whatever kind of revolution we're in right now,

14:47right? We're in some kind of revolution right now. We're in the human, human beats corpo revolution, the human beats politics revolution, the human beats AI revolution, the human takes, you know, it's almost like in order to have something like an artificial intelligence, you have to have that same level of power on the human side, right? Or at least a power comparable to keep things in balance, right? A self-reliant and independent humanity that is not, you know, almost drug along or stuck in between human and AI, right? As the AI powers so too must the human animal. And I think from what I can tell, right? The homesteading world, the prepping world, maybe even the Christian world is the least adulterated by places like Hollywood and every other sort of portal to

15:52hell that you know of, right? And I want to try and keep it that way. All right, folks, I appreciate you. I'll talk to you soon.
