Basecamp for Men E201: The Unbreakable Human Spirit

E201: The Unbreakable Human Spirit with Special Guest

Christian Elliot

 

E201 Introduction

I love to speak with guests who can really frame things. I sometimes feel I am beating the same drum, in terms of this conflict we find ourselves with the psychopathic Globalists, exemplified by the WEF and their Communist/Totalitarian inspired Great Reset.

The Great Reset is more control for them, less freedom for you.

Most of the ways of describing this I have created a bit of a well-worn narrative road. The 5G war, the unconventional war, Humanity against the Globalists. So when I get a chance to speak with a guest who has a very skillful way of describing, not only the challenges we are currently facing but some of the remedies that we are creating, it is wonderful for me.

There is something unbreakable about the human Spirit and human creativity and ingenuity. Once we fully realize what we are up against, and we are all getting there, the human tribe can go to work on building the future that works for all of us. Ourselves and future generations. A future where we are partnered with our technology instead of being squashed, fused, and dominated by it.

Today‘s interview had a lot of little light bulbs going off for me. I hope you enjoy it as well.

E201 Final Thoughts-

So good to speak again with Christian. He got me taking a kind and gentle look at how I interact with technology. Rather than mindlessly engaging with my phone and my music and podcasts, I am starting to explore ways to reduce the body burden.

Thank you Basecampers and we’ll see you around the fire next week.

Basecamp for Men E200: A Basecamp Retrospective

E200: A Basecamp Retrospective

 

E200 Introduction

Today’s show is E200 and a bit of a landmark episode for me. When I was originally chosen to host a show for men way back in early 2019, I had no idea I would still be doing this well into our fifth season. It goes to show you how mysterious the Divine is and how mysterious our own Hero’s Journeys are if we surrender to higher, more powerful currents than our own.

As I was fumbling my way through season one, I heard a small, clear voice. One I have come to recognize as my Higher Self or the Divine within me. Or God whispering to me. It simply said “Do 200 high quality episodes. That is your task.” I accepted.

When I shared this story with my teenage son Lucas, he asked me “what are going to do after EP 200?”. I said “Do episode #201, of course!”I love doing this and I have found this to be a medium of creativity that really suits my particular creative strengths and it aligns with my mission to assist humanity.

As I was reflecting back on the first five seasons, a few things jumped out at me. First, BFM started out as strictly a personal development show for men. This was tapping into my own experience as the author of a humble little book for men and the fact that I had long led small men‘s groups throughout my time as a man. Conversations with men and leading men was something that came natural to me.

But as we moved moved through season one and beyond, my love of myth, mysticism, and transcendence began to be expressed in more and more episodes. I started to recognize God’s hand in my choice of guests and topics. I began to deeply understand that I was simply a vehicle and it was the work of God that was asking to write the episodes speak to the people…..enjoy the look back and thank you listeners!

 

 

Basecamp for Men E199: The Lone Wolf Syndrome

E199: The Lone Wolf Syndrome w Special Guest Tony Endelman

 

E199 Introduction

Today‘s episode is a bit of a throwback episode for us. In a good way. As many of you know, Basecamp for Men was conceived and started as a resource show for men’s personal development. The power of men‘s groups and a positive, authentic masculinity was the medicine I was called to bring forth from all of my years leading and participating in men‘s groups. It has defined my life and I am full of gratitude for the men I have followed and led in this work.

My friend Dave recently sent me a new book about Dr. Robert Glover. Dr. Glover is the author of the classic men’s book No More Mr. Nice Guy. I dug in and recognized that the authors and I had similar stories and wounds but with different paths up the mountain so to speak.

Men have always been more powerfully who they are when they can speak authentically with other men. This is a rare thing, as you will hear in this episode.

I think all men carry this sort of lone wolf syndrome. We think we can do the work, grow ourselves up into the men we want to be, heal our childhood traumas (that we all have), and become strong, confident partners and fathers. And do all of this with absolutely no support! It is delusional.

As the Mankind Project has said over and over again, it takes a tribe of men to grow men. For only other men know intimately the shame, hurt, violence, and shadow that are hidden deep inside of a man‘s heart and soul. The astoundingly wonderful secret for men: the more you can speak from your depths without flinching, the more light that can come into your heart and your life.

And men are great at hiding. We hide our hurt and our addictions and our hopes and fears. We hide our shame and our heartbrokenness and feelings of inadequacy. Fuck we try and hide it all because we think that if you knew who I really am and how I really felt (especially when I feel small) you will desert me. So we just go it alone. Are you following me?

Today’s conversation is hopefully like sitting in a good men’s group. As my guest, himself a veteran of these emotionally honest expressions, brings the truth about what it means to be a man. I hope you see yourself in our sharing. Enjoy the interview.

Tony Endelman Bio

Tony Endelman is an author, popular self-help blogger, and certified transformational life coach. Additionally, he is one of Dr. Robert Glover’s elite certified No More Mr. Nice Guy coaches. Tony’s recently released book, THE BIG STICK: Collected & Applied Wisdom from the Teachings of Dr. Robert Glover encapsulates 40 years of wisdom put forth by Dr. Glover.  Here is my interview with Tony Endelman.

E199 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed our conversation as much as I did. Love Tony and his message for men. And go get a copy of the excellent new men’s book The Big Stick where Tony distills Dr. Glover‘s wisdom down into what you need to know as a man. Thank you Basecampers and we’ll see you around the fire next week.

 

 

 

Basecamp for Men E198: The Spirit of Defiance

E198: The Spirit of Defiance with Special Guest Marja West

 

E198 Introduction

Hello Basecampers, I hope you are all doing well. Today we have a few tidbits and a fiery interview that I really enjoyed being a part of .

You can see the new variant marching onto the scene, can’t you? It’s so boring and predictable , isn‘t it. How fucking dumb do they think we are? Getting it all ready for 2024, yawn.

Here’s a meme from David Wolfe shares a BREAKING story. A new and more lethal OMICRON variant has been detected. It’s called BS 24-7. It attacks the truth and insults your intelligence. Aho.

I have a few questions for you. How will you navigate Round 2? Did you learn anything from the last round? Did you like complying and obeying orders from tyrants who hate humanity and freedom? How did that feel? I am asking because I don‘t know as I, my family, and a few close friends were on the other side. I have learned a ton the past two or three years but I plan on making many of the same choices in Round 2 of another plandemic. I won’t be doing masks or jabs or boosters or whatever else the Globalists have in mind for us. I’m not interested in any of that and I don‘t really care what you think of me. I stay out of your business, trusting you will make the best choices for you and your family.

And a great way to tee this interview up is with a Walt Whitman quote and a reaction by Bitcoiner Jeff Swann.

Walt Whitman says “There is no week nor day nor hour when tyranny may not enter upon this country. If the people lose their roughness and spirit of defiance.” In which Jeff responds with a simple “Walt Whitman knew the fucking snowflakes would ruin the country.” Aho. This gets us in the mood, so to speak.

Buckle your seatbelts as I sit around the fire riffing with my new friend. The fiery, truthful, enchanting Marja West. Enjoy the ride.
