Basecamp for Men E225: B is for Bitcoin

E225: B is for Bitcoin with Special Guest Daz Bea

 

E225 Introduction

Before we get to our interview, I thought I would share a few memes with you as they have been piling up and I like to share these with you. Today’s theme is Bitcoin and freedom (two topics I am obviously crazy for).

The first one is from author and thought leader Jeff Booth, who says:

“All of the noise is just a natural part of a slow and messy transition from a world of deception, fear and scarcity- to a world of truth, hope, and abundance, with every person understanding the transition at their own pace. #bitcoin The chaos only tells you how early you are!”

And a great one with a Terminator theme. It had young John Conner asking Arnold Swarzennegar “Did you come back to save the human race from machines? In which the Terminator responds “No, I’m here to buy Bitcoin on the cheap”. Love it!

And former US Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard who simply states:

“Bitcoin opens the door to freedom, opportunity, and individual empowerment.”

And one from one of my all-time heroes. The great George Carlin who says

“Sooner of later the people in this country are going to realize that the government doesn’t give a shit about them. Government doesn’t care about you or your children, or your rights, or your welfare, or your safety. It simply doesn’t give a shit about you. Its only interested in its own power, keeping it and expanding it wherever possible.”

Aho, and lastly from Humble Bitcoiner who says

“If you know someone that didn’t take the jab and now they’re telling you about Bitcoin, you should probably listen.”

My guest today is Aussie who got up at the crack of dawn to meet with us. Let’s go sit around the fire with him and speak the truth. Enjoy.

Basecamp for Men E224: Basecamp Classic

E224: Basecamp Classic

 

E224 Introduction

Well, I was feeling a bit pinched for time this week. I have been working on 2 or 3 episodes, including the Secret Space Program episode (I didn‘t forget that one) but nothing felt quite ready for the wild.

I like doing these Basecamp Classics in these spots. I get to choose an old episode from a past season that you may have missed or I think is worth a second listen.

Today’s episode is from back in Season Four with Kelly Lamb titled Building Bridges for the Left. It is still so relevant right now, as you’ll hear. We’ll be back next week with fresh content. Enjoy the episode.

 

Basecamp for Men E223: We’re All on the Same Side

E223: We’re All on the Same Side

 

E223 Introduction

Let’s talk a minute about Signal vs Noise. To start with, it is safe to say that damn near EVERYTHING the Globalist put out via MSM is propaganda and noise. They are not incentivized to give you signal, to keep you informed or awaken or empower you. That is not in their self-interest, is it? Why would it be? If you want to control the population from the top-down, then treat people like mushrooms: keep them in the dark and feed them shit. Which is exactly what they do.

All signal at this point comes from citizen journalist, independent and critical thinking Anons, and podcasts like yours truly. Oh, I am not implying that I have nothing but signal. But at least I am trying to awaken you. I respect you and your awakening. And I am trying to assist humanity in any way I can. This has always been the mission here at Basecamp.There are so many others that are doing their small part, like my guest today.

One of the points of 2024 and beyond is to wake up people to the fact that we are in a non-kinetic war. A new type of warfare that features propaganda and disinformation (from both sides), the use of cyberwarfare and AI, the emergence of decentralized platforms that are censor-resistance and pro-freedom, and a fierce fight for the narrative high ground. We are seeing this in spades, are we not.

This has been a heavyweight fight and it is not a Republican/Democrat divide or even a Liberal/Christian or a pro-governament/Libertarian divide. It is the Globalists and their Totalitarian top down control of our human population that they seek to reduce so as to control in an easier way. And WE THE PEOPLE with our own tools to subvert and create systems that work well for US.

I recently listened to a podcast with General Kwast as a guest. I like to listen to the highest military officers speak with insight and intelligence about the war we are in. I feel this approach puts you in alignment with much more SIGNAL than just taking whatever information they throw at you. Kwast even talks about how effective the Q drops have been to activate a citizen journalism movement and show people just how corrupt and evil the Cabal is. Q sketched it out, Anons filled in the painting in vivid colors- trafficking children for unspeakable uses, sexual blackmail scandals (you had another hit the airwaves this week with P Diddy, treason in the highest of places, the enemy inside the fortress. We are seeing all of this in real time. My 2 cents? Find yourself someone who takes time to research and befriend them. Start asking questions and stop poo-pooing all the people who are working to bring you this information for YOUR BENEFIT. Continue to wake yourself up, even if its uncomfortable truths. This is what is required of a true Hero’s Journey, is it not?

My guest today is a woman who felt called to assist in this Great Awakening we have talked about over the years. Let’s go sit around the fire and listen for the signal that will assist our forward movement. Enjoy!

Basecamp for Men E222: Passing the Torch

E222: Passing the Torch with Special Guest Connor Macfarland

 

E222 Introduction

Many of you know that had a great time attending Charlie Kirk‘s America Fest in Phoenix this past December. It was so inspiring that I plan on going again this year.

One of the things that jumped out at me was how many young Conservatives and Libertarians were in the audience. Charlie puts them right up front as these young men and women are our future. To me, it’s really amazing to see them and talk to them as their values and principles run counter to what I see our public schools teaching here in Seattle (or any blue state for that matter). Seattle area schools are a mess with their obsession with all things woke-transgender ideology as young as you can slip it into the classrooms, endless pronouns meant to confuse further divide. No real American civics- no mention of the Constitution or Bill of Rights.

How many young people coming out of public school can even describe the Revolutionary War, the creation of our nation with the Declaration of Independence. Or why the Civil War was fought. I am not convinced high school seniors down the street can accurately describe any of this. And it’s really not their fault. They weren‘t taught it, were they?

How can a generation feel dignity and pride in their great nation when everything taught in government schools slanders and demeans its young citizens about who we are as nation and as a people?

We have come a long ways in just few short decades. When I went to high school 40 years ago, the whole nation was patriotic. Do you remember that? Yep, Democrat and Republicans alike. Hard to image that today. Ronald Reagan was President and carried every state but two. American was experiencing a renewal back in the 80’s and damn near everyone you spoke with was proud to be an American and all knew what an exceptional nation we lived in. When you spoke with new immigrants to our nation, they were excited and grateful to be given a chance to live in the “land of opportunity”. So many of them embodied the American Dream. Future generations did better than their predecessors.

What will happen if we don‘t turn around education? At this point, it may be best just to dismantle public education and their Unions and start from the ground up. They have been captured by Marxists/Communists pushing a radical Woke curriculum on the unsuspecting students. When you understand it, it’s pretty gross. Education in my view is too far gone to save. At this point, the students are better off not attending these government indoctrination camps. They will be smarter than all the woke kids who insist that there is no such thing as a man, no such thing as a woman. Most parents instinctively know this. Public schools no longer teach anything useful to the students. It’s basically a shitty babysitter where you get to see your friends a bit. If parents really knew, most would get them out of there asap. Seriously. It’s that bad Basecampers.

I may have shared this with you already. I don’t remember. To illustrate this, I had coffee with a friend not too long ago and he described what his son was doing in public high school. He had one book report his junior year and get this, it could be on a graphic novel! Are you kidding me? One book report for the whole year and it can be on a comic book! Oye vay.

You know what is a good way to dumb down kids? Don’t have them read or write and don’t teach them anything useful. Add to that no actual American civics and you have a whole generation who can’t navigate, critically think, or add anything of value to society.

Thankfully, parents are waking up and pushing back. There is a sense of urgency with this as we have future generations who are counting on us to turn the ship around.

I don’t get a chance to speak with many college students, so this was a special treat for me. Let’s go connect with our guest today, a young man stepping into his leadership at Liberty University. Enjoy the interview.

Basecamp for Men E221: The Wisdom of Optimism

E221: The Wisdom of Optimism with Special Guest

Noel Rudhe

 

E221 Introduction

What a year 2024 is shaping up to be! We seem to be in some sort of epic transition who’s outcome is uncertain and it feels like we are getting close to a tipping point, doesn’t it? We seem to be in a sort of high risk/high reward proposition right now that will impact us for decades to come. Are we up for it? I hope so.

To each listener, I will challenge you with this: make this the year that we each wake up to the best of our ability. For those that already know what is going on, how do we include those just arriving at truths that we knew months or years ago? How do we welcome newcomers into the pro-humanity movement without making them feel inferior? For those on the left who are sensing that shit just doesn’t make sense, can you come over to Telegram and find some new inputs that seem to fill in parts of the map that you have been missing? Or podcasts that fill in some of the blanks. No judgment here as to where you are at on your Hero’s Journey.

For all of the kind-hearted humans out there, and we make up the vast majority of humans here (no matter what they say about us). Can we see the tension and division that the Globalists are trying to create? Talking endlessly about this group and that group, hoping to distract and separate us. A classic Marxist ploy that they are betting you don’t figure out until its too late and America is lost.

My guest today is a friend and fellow humanist and optimist. I will tell you, when shit really hits the fan, it’s the intelligent, free thinking optimists that have a huge advantage. Why? Because seeing a bright future and humanity thriving in our next chapters creates possibilities that don‘t exist in the doom and gloom view of our future. Sure, WE THE PEOPLE have enemies and they don’t seem to value us very much. So what. We have too much going for us to throw away the transformative tools that will naturally help to bring us through.

My guest today is a wise friend who I have been wanting to have on for quite some time. Let‘s go sit around the fire with her. Enjoy!
