Basecamp for Men E218: Gen X Saves the World!

E218: Gen X Saves the World! with Special Guest E Mandisa

 

E218 Introduction

Lately I have been seeing all sorts of funny and truthful posts on social media about my generation, Gen X, and what badasses we are. And it‘s true. We were all raised to be tough, self-reliant, patriotic, with a high level of street smarts. We had to be. We were out in the world on our bikes as little kids, roaming all over our neighborhoods and the surrounding areas with our friends and our dogs. No kidding. That is the way we rolled and it made an indelible mark on our lives and our character.

We didn’t wear helmets on bikes (or motorcycles for that matter). We didn‘t wear seat belts in cars (hell we just jumped into the back of a pickup with four other kids and two dogs and held on for dear life). We weren‘t allergic to any foods. You would have been called a sissy if you had any. We had no trigger warnings. We had just boys and girls. That was enough. It was, by every definition, an All-American upbringing. Full of fun, adventure, optimism, freedom, and love. We didn’t need anything else.

Not that there weren’t hard knocks. Oh, Gen Xers were expected to be resourceful and to handle yourself in all sorts of situations.

And we knew the world was not always safe or going to roll out the red carpet for us. So we learned work ethic. Hell, we learned it from our parents and the adults we grew up with. Everyone worked hard and had their hustle on. I saw my own parents work their tails off to put food on the table and provide the things that my brother and I needed. Looking back, it’s inspiring and helped mold my generation.

This episode is dedicated to my incredible fellow Gen Xers and those that raised us. A generation built on personal freedom, patriotism, hard work, and not putting up with all the bullshit they throw at you. This episode is for you.

Basecamp for Men E216: WE THE COURAGEOUS

E216: WE THE COURAGEOUS w Special Guest Jodi O’Malley

 

E216 Introduction

You saw some feisty Americans during the Covid episode. What looked like a giant social engineering experiment to see how many weak-minded people would comply and turn on their neighbors had the Libertarians in the crowd forming a resistance. What did we resist? Tyranny for one. The top-down centrally-controlled Great Reset, aka the Globalist agenda.

The widespread compliance was shocking to me and I took great comfort in realizing that Seattle is more obedient to so-called authority than almost every other place in the US. That is right. The city that gave you the rebel yell of Kurt Cobain and countless other post-punk rockers has become….well, a meek, obedient, vanilla tech city, quick to comply and slow to ask any real questions. It turns out, Seattle lacks balls. Imagine my surprise.

I keep coming back to courage as a cornerstone and I believe this will define us (one way or the other) in 2024. Courage is contagious. That is one thing I have found both in myself and in the others I have worked with and witnessed over time. My guest today exemplifies and embodies this quality. And for Americans, it‘s important to remember that courage is in our DNA. Every time you think and act courageously, you harken back the spirit of our ancestors. The ones who risked their lives and livelihood to resisted tyranny and set an example for freedom-loving humans all over the world.

The Globalists have their utterly predictable playbook going. Yawn. They will use Marxist techniques masquerading as “woke” to try and divide us-transgender, race, rich/poor,victim/perpetrator. And distract, distract, disctract to keep WE THE PEOPLE from figuring out that we are reaching a tipping point in this war. It cannot be described any other way, no matter your spiritual or political or sexual orientation.

No matter what you take into this year, let us agree that each and every one of us being the most courageous and authentic version of ourselves will serve God and our precious American Republic more than anything else I can think of. Enjoy the interview but first a word from our sponsor.

Basecamp for Men E215: Standing Up

E215: Standing Up with Special Guest Gerard White

 

E215: Introduction

They say God works in mysterious ways and there is no question that this has been true for both myself and my family as well as my guest today. I am a big believer that God has a plan for each and every one of us and that if we can get quiet and listen and surrender, we will hear our unique calling. This has always been true.

We live in a time when our adversaries (those that seek to destroy America and her principles of freedom, free speech, liberty, pursuit of happiness) have made their way into some of our most vulnerable areas- education, media, politics. It has become increasingly obvious that the Globalists are in control of all three of these. You can see it in their messaging, their actions, their legislation, and their allegiances.

Furthermore, WE THE PEOPLE have been coughing and choking on all the lies, deception, and propaganda.

I attended America Fest, as I told you before, in December. As a Libertarian, it was a breath of fresh air. A great conference where I met my guest today who has started an apparel company called Stand Up Now. And the big takeaway from America Fest? It is time to stand up now Patriots. We are at a pivotal point in our war with the Marxists/Globalists/Communists who seek to destroy our country and strip her of her natural Divinity.

So, if you love this nation, no matter your political orientation- left, right, or center. Now is the time to ask God and yourself “What is being asked of me here? How can I help come to the aid of this great nation that has so blessed me and my family for generations now? God, tell me what you need from me? How can I serve?”

I know that many of you will answer the call in whatever way you are able. 2024 will be a year we are all out of our comfort zone but it will also be remembered as a year that things shifted once again, in favor of humanity. Enjoy the interview.

Basecamp for Men E213: Second Chances

E213: Second Chance w Special Guest Dr. Ken Harris

 

E213 Introduction

Hello Basecampers, we‘re getting season six rolling now. Looking forward we have a number of interesting interviews coming up. I will be talking with patriot entrepreneur Gerard White and the courageous, truth telling nurse Jodi O’Malley. I have one coming up with men‘s leader Vicenzo Falone. I also have a 911 truther episode coming up with architect and structural engineer Richard Gage. And we are still plugging away at the SSP episode, which will be the first solo episode of the season, set to air sometime in Feb or March, depending on the flow.

2024 will be an epic year for America. I think everyone can sense it. Hopefully here at Basecamp, we can do our part to provide you with resources for this year and beyond. I continue to be drawn to people (like my guest today) who can help us navigate with our humanity intact. For our unifying sense of humanity as ONE TRIBE is the thing that lifts us beyond the division and the thing the Globalists fear the most.

Enjoy the interview.

E211: Season Five Finale

E211: Season Five Finale

 

E211 Introduction

Well Basecampers, we have come to the end of Season Five. I hope you enjoyed the content the past 11 months. It was a good season, from where I’ve been sitting. I hope we provided some tools for your Hero’s Journey as well as fresh perspectives on everything that is going on.

I will be taking a few weeks off to enjoy the Christmas season with family and friends. Recharge for the new year and Season Six. We will be back with fresh episodes and a new season on either Jan 9th or Jan 16th, depending on the flow.

2024 is set to be an epic year for humanity. I think no matter what your views are on what is happening, most everyone can agree that there seems to be some very big things brewing.

Will there even be a 2024 Presidential election? I personally don’t think there will but you never know. Trump is poised for a return. What will that look like? Will the broader public start to get a handle on Devolution or Bitcoin? We will soon find out.

I was thinking about the next season and what I want to assist humanity with. One of the insights in the past few years that I would like to expand on is this idea of how we grow our capacity for Truth. We have been so conditioned to avoid it, haven‘t we. Stay comfortable, don‘t look or express uncomfortable truths, don’t rock the boat. What that leaves us with is a deep denial of what is happening and a particular form of naïveté. Many of the so called “normies” and I’m not calling you that, still seem to think that the gov‘t, or Big Pharma, or the WEF, or Bill Gates, etc etc would NEVER lie to you. It’s like holding onto your belief in Santa Claus, except your 50 fuckin’ years old now and call anyone that calls out the Santa scam a big ole Conspiracy Theorist.

Hopefully whatever is to come in 2024, Basecamp will help you skillfully navigate it. Our perspective will likely be the polar opposite of what you are hearing in MSM on damn near everything and that’s ok. My goal is to have you fine-tune your radar so you know what is going on. That you aren‘t part of the crowd that is so easily fooled by shiny TV lights and so called “experts” telling you what you need to know and what you need to do. We don’t need them anymore. It’s doubtful we ever did.

Today we have a Basecamp Classic for you. A good way to finish our season. It is all the way back at the beginning of Season Three with an episode titled The Quest for the Soul that I did with the great author Anne Baring. I remember being particularly proud of the episode as it seemed to set the tone for season three and Anne and I got along fabulously.

I would like to thank you for listening to the show and supporting us in whatever way you are able to: monthly and one-time donations, positive reviews on Apple Podcasts, and just sharing the show with the people that are in your lives. I appreciate the vote of confidence. And lastly, from my family to yours, I would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and may God keep you safe and the Light of the son Jesus Christ light the way on your Hero’s Journey. Enjoy.
