E229: The Future is Bright (Orange) with Special Guest

E229 Introduction

 

“Bitcoin is the first technology that allows the entire world to join the ruling class in opting out of the plans the ruling class has for the entire world.”    Laser

Now, why am I including so many recent episodes in the past two seasons about Bitcoin? I believe it is a technological innovation that will lead to a radically different (and far more positive future) than anyone can envision with the current corrupt fiat system, which is being debased as we speak (as in the purchasing power of your money is worth less and less each week, each month, each year)

I heard a Lawrence Lepard, a well-known thought-leader and advocate of sound money talking on a podcast recently and he likened Bitcoin to the early days of the computing, before the advent of the Internet. He said he was talking to Steve Ballmer back in the 1980’s and he was saying how huge Microsoft and personal computing was going to be. Lawrence said he sounded crazy because he was so early.

Lawrence said he sees the exact same dynamic right now with the early adopters of Bitcoin. Why am I sharing these conversations and my thoughts on this innovation? Because I want you Basecampers to benefit. If even 10 or 20 or 50 of you learn to buy, hold, and self-custody your Bitcoin, then these episodes were worth the time and effort. Knowing you and your family will greatly benefit. I will include the great episode I listened to where Lawrence was talking about all this stuff if you have an hour and your are interested in this.

I will continue to have some Bitcoin episodes here and there but we will spread them out as best we can. I know there are other juicy topics to get to and we are in a crazy election year with lots of moving parts and uncertainty is in the air. For me, Bitcoin acts as an important life-raft to sail what will certainly be stormy seas that is our foreseeable future.

Basecamp for Men E228: The Sign of the Times

E228: The Sign of the Times with Special Guest Phoenix

 

E228 Introduction

The sign of the times. What are the sign of the times? Well, I would say a few things jump out at me.

First off, we live in a time of great corruption and deception. That much should be obvious to all, no matter your political orientation. We are all witness to the collapse of a corrupt global empire (the Deep State) that is being punched out by a pro-humanity alliance. Can you see the dynamic in this conflict? Are you aware of the propaganda war that you are swimming in? It’s all around you Basecamper. In fact, this podcast is a very small player in this war, doing what we can to assist humanity (no matter your political leanings).

The Globalists and their 3-letter agencies have done their best to pit us against each other. They have tried to demonize and pit you and I against one another, haven’t they? According to the MSM, if I disagree with you on anything, I must be your enemy or a terrorist or a lunatic. All for having my own opinions about things. And they tell me the same thing about you liberals (of which I was one for thirty fucking years!) But that‘s not good enough. You must be my enemy since you hate Trump or you LOVE experimental pharmaceutical shots, or you really believe in compliance and obedience. Those beliefs do not make you my enemy. Probably not my friend either but I don’t need to loathe or hate you for differing on any of it, do I?

It doesn’t make you stupid either. Sure, you LOOK stupid wearing that mask all over the place but that is a matter of taste. You just have SOME different values perhaps. Or the inputs you’ve received are different so we are arriving at different conclusions. My honest question to those on the left…..do you even know that you are in a war? Or has that escaped you?

Another sign of the time is that there are new weapons being deployed by both sides. For instance, there is a new weapon for WE THE PEOPLE. A hard monetary asset that has arrived in the nick of time to assist humanity in this transitional period. For one of the most powerful weapons the Globalists use is a fiat money ponzi scheme that they can debase through endless printing or QE (to use a Keynsian phrase) and then unlawfully steal from humans using lawfare and deception to make it look like its normal and good for people to “pay their taxes”. Remember, the IRS is not the gov’t. They are a private, foreign-owned corporation that steals your money and uses lawfare and jurisdiction to fool you. We see what your doing. Your not fooling WE THE PEOPLE. Until Bitcoin, there was no way out for the average person to opt out of this rigged game, no matter their nation.

What will happen in 2024? Nobody knows for sure. Everyone I know is doing a sort of light-prepping. Keeping two or three months worth of dry goods, getting their bug-out list and plan ready, having some cash on hand. Making sure there’s ammo for your firearms, if that is your thing. My point? No matter your politics, people are feeling the need to look at worse-case scenarios and plan accordingly. A lot of this stuff is common sense and I know you all are aware of this and I trust you to be making preparations that work for you and your family.

You guys know that I really like interviewing authors, podcasters, thought-leaders. But I also like interviewing everyday heroes like my guest today. It helps me to find out what everyday people are dealing with. The challenges and victories that they are having.

Don’t ever forget that we are all on a Heroic Journey together. Each playing his or her part. Let‘s go find out my guest is doing to play her part and keep awake and alive in these strange, deceptive times we live in. Enjoy the interview.

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 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!
