Basecamp for Men E277: Empowering the People

E277: Empowering the People with Special Guest Cal Washington

 

E277 Introduction

There are few things that makes people feel more helpless and victimized than advanced technologies that seem to be having a negative effect on health and overall well-being. You can be left feeling like you can’t ignore it yet you can’t escape it.

Things like 5G technology, “smart meters”, and geoengeneering aka weather modification can leave you feeling like you have no remedies and nobody fighting to make sure that if there are indeed harmful impacts, someone CAN be held liable. It just feels like the deck is stacked.

My guest today is someone who has addressed all this and more. Creating an organization that has created NOL templates to address anything that might be harming humanity. Brilliant, creative, and courageous? And just in the nick of time, I might add.

There is a saying that “God provides” and in this man’s humble work, I can see the answer to our some of our collective prayers. That we find some chess moves of our own to combat what (looks increasingly like) that we have been boxed in by technologies that seem convenient on the surface but, once investigated, look to be part of a global control system. A digital surveillance system or digital fence, with parts of the this system now INSIDE of us, thanks in part to MRNA shots that many have voluntarily taken plus “smart meters” and whatever it is that they are spraying on us on most days.

However, it seems for every move that the Globalists make to ensure they remain at the top of the pyramid, there has emerged counterstrikes in this great chess game as WE THE PEOPLE start to play moves we didn’t even know existed until now.

Enjoy the episode.

The American Pulse E14: Team Academy for Veterans

E14: Team Academy for Veterans w Special Guest Lukas Lovett

 

E14 Introduction

Hello listeners and thank you for tuning into The American Pulse. There are few things more American than service to our country. We would have no nation without our soldiers, past and present and we would have no nation without the fighting spirit that is America. It is as vital to our history and our future as our love of freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Yet, so many of the young people that have gallantly served our great nation are forgotten once they have served their purpose. This seems strange to me. The very people (men and women) who have been trained to be mentally and physically their toughest are then left to drift. And this drift without clear direction or mission leads more often than we know, to depression, suicide, and homelessness.

Whenever an important phase in life is complete (like military service) and a new one has not yet begun, it is often experienced as a dark night of the Soul. A death of identity and purpose. And you need good people to help shine the light as it can often be difficult to find it on your own.

My guest today saw all this and created something with veterans in mind. Let’s go chat with him about these things.Enjoy the interview.

Lukas Lovett Bio

My guest today is Lukas Lovett. Lukas is a veteran that served almost five years in the Army Ranger program, four of them in special operations. He is the Executive Director of Team Academy for Veterans whose mission is dedicated to eliminating Veteran suicide an homelessness by increasing the number of successful transitions to civilian life. Here is my interview w Lukas Lovett.

E14 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed that conversation as did. We will be tracking this development and looking to support Lukas and Team Academy for Veterans at each phase. I hope you‘ll join me.

 

Basecamp for Men E276: Diving Into A.I.

E276: Diving Into A.I. with Special Guest Pamela Leslie

 

E276 Introduction

We seem to be at a critical juncture in both the narrative war and in the evolution of our existence here in this planet. A changing of the guard, as they say.The old systems, whether that is money or tech or medicine, to name just few, are crumbling under the weight of both bureaucratic bloat and just plain ole graft and corruption. You can see it in real time, each one of us as witness.

Futurists are lined up seeing either the new golden age or a technocratic nightmare, depending on which inputs you put in your brain. The decentralized revolution with Bitcoin at the center are creeping towards center stage and mainstream awareness. It is, in many ways, inevitable.

And along with the decentralized revolution and people first systems there sits AI, or LLM as they are properly called. Chat GPT, Grok, Claude, and even the Chinese Communist Party‘s Deep Seek, to name just a few.

At first glance, it looks like robots are going to take over the world. This too seems a bit inevitable. But if technology has taught us anything, it is that although there are dangers in emerging technology, there are also incredible gifts for humans. What are those gifts? Sometimes it can be hard to tell as first-uses for the early adopters sometimes give way to radical new ways of seeing and doing things as the global village adopts and innovates with the new technology.

I must admit, I was resistance to all the LLM at first. But as someone who creates lots of content on a regular basis, I can see how much packaging and marketing this content will be streamlined with proper use of a LLM. I just need to learn how to do it.

I was fortunate enough to meet my guest today, who teaches a class for newbies on how to get started using any of a number of these LLM’s for better productivity and a bunch of other things. The future is now Basecampers and I don’t know about you but I would rather start early and understand the changes that are happening than sit on the sidelines imagining the worst.

I hope enjoy the episode.

The American Pulse E13: Courageous Living and TPUSA

E13: Courageous Living and TPUSA w Special Guest Rachel Anderson

 

E13 Introduction

Of all the virtues that Americans possess, I would have to say that my two favorites are love of freedom and courage. I absolutely love courageous people and I always have. I have learned so much and fortified my own courageous path by those that have shown me the way. Courage begets courage, as the saying goes.

As Americans, whether we regularly voice it or not, are expected by the world, to be wayshowers on the paths of both freedom and courage for those traits are interrelated.

It is where the left and right in our country differ. The left has been fused with a Collectivist mindset. A Marxist expression where asserting your own values and principles is seen as threatening to the hive mind of the now radical left. Everything is seen as an existential threat to the Woke mindset- a disagreement, an assertion of independence and sovereignty, and certainly any act of courage is viewed as selfish and foreign to those that conform to the collectivist narrative that is handed to them and constantly reinforced.

It is a bit ironic that one of the gifts that the far left has given libertarians and conservatives these past few years is the gift of activating our courage and convictions. For example, there was no way we were going to just go along with the insane transgender ideology (pretending that biological men are women) or go along with putting authorities over parents in the care of children. Nope. We will never go along with that. Ever. Many of us libertarians just want to be left alone but we have not been left alone. So now everyone has to deal with an awakened conservative base. It’s a beautiful thing, in my eyes. A true Hero’s Journey for all of us.

Yet, it requires people standing and modeling courage, like my guest today. A young woman who exemplifies living a courageous life. Enjoy the interview.

Rachel Anderson Bio

My guest today is Rachel Anderson. Rachel is an courageous American, a Conservative, and a field rep for Turning Point USA. Here is my interview with Rachel Anderson.

AP13 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed that conversation as much as I did. Our Lincoln Day dinner is this Saturday and I think it is all sold out. If you are wanting to join us at this awesome event, go get one of the last tickets at KCGOP.org. And if you are going, make sure you come find me and say hi.

And go support TPUSA! I can think of no better national cause than Charlie Kirk‘s visionary organization.Thank you listeners and we’ll see you next week on The American Pulse.

 

 

Basecamp for Men E275: Macroeconomics w/ Peruvian Bull

E275: Macroeconomics with Special Guest Peruvian Bull

 

E275 Introduction

Today’s episode is not really a Bitcoin episode per se. But rather a conversation with a very intelligent young man about what he sees in the macroeconomic environment as it relates to our future.

I have said that we will continue to feature Bitcoiners on this show. Not every episode. Basecamp is not a Bitcoin podcast. But I like what Bitcoiners bring to the table: street smarts, intelligence about monetary properties, intuition, and a healthy dose of optimism and foresight.

In my view, Bitcoiners are one of the only sub-groups bringing light and humor and insight into the narrative war. The fact that they are preaching adoption of the hardest money on the planet is almost the cherry on top, so to speak.

Between tariffs and de-dollarization and trade and narrative wars, it can be difficult to see clearly. We are in the cognitive dissonance phase for many people, certainly the normies are getting this in spades. A sort of WTF is happening vibe is all over the place.

This is where the stone-cold conviction of the Bitcoiners again stands alone. What other sub-group is cutting through the fog the way Bitcoiners are? None that I can see.

Let‘s get to our interview, it’s a good one. And once again, none of this should be taken as financial advice. I am not saying YOU should buy Bitcoin. I am a libertarian through and through. You do you Basecamper. I am simply sharing what I have found valuable. That is all. Enjoy the interview.

Peruvian Bull Bio

My guest today goes by the name Peruvian Bull. He is a former analyst in fintech and a writer on finance and monetary policy. He is also the author of the book The Dollar Endgame. Here is my interview with Peruvian Bull.
