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.

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.

 

 

 

 

 

Basecamp for Men E209: Learning Our Way to Better Health

E209: Learning Our Way to Better Health with Special Guest

Lisa Rezac

 

E209 Introduction

Today’s episode is a health and lifestyle episode with my wife and life partner Lisa. She is an extremely intuitive person, both in terms of her own situation but those around her. I am the beneficiary of her intuition as she will often pinpoint something that is not quite in my awareness. Or she will affirm an insight I am already having about my health as she did in this episode we will share with you today.

If you have a TV and watch it semi-regularly, you can’t miss it. The non-stop advertisements (in prime time) for all sorts of Pharma products with every name imaginable. Humira, Keytruda, Gardisil, Skyrizi, Ozempic, the list goes on and on. All the names sound sort of the same, don‘t they?

As many of you know, I have been recovering from Shingles the past 6 weeks or so. It’s been tough but here I am, grateful for my health after a harrowing brush with the drugs that were prescribed for me.

People were quick to tell me “I bet you wish you had the vaccine now”  or “I bet you won’t miss the next Shingles vaccine!” People that tell me that miss the larger point. My stand is to have the optimal health for my body, mind, and spirit and FOR ME the best way to do that is to avoid all pharmaceutical products as much as I can. As in damn near always. I compare it to someone who loves hiking and being out in nature. If that person rolls their ankle and needs to be in an ankle wrap for a month, do you really think that person will never go out and enjoy nature again? Life happens. When it does, I for one don’t feel like I need to cave on all my principles. And I learned a lot from having shingles.. Optimal health, I have found out over 30 years, is ALL ABOUT LEARNING.

My heart goes out to all of those who struggle to feel good and have found themselves on a bunch of these products. Man, I was on just ONE for a month and it scared the shit out of me. I just wasn’t myself as you will hear me talk about with Lisa.

I am not giving medical advise. But human to human, I can share with you that being on lots of these products scares the shit out of me. I know from experience that you can build a health team that has a traditional MD as PART of the team. But you might also have a naturopathic doctor, a chiropractor, a nutritionist, a good bodyworker, maybe a colonic hydrotherapist and a acupuncturist, maybe a yoga teacher of a somatic movement teacher. There are tons of resources to help you reframe and optimize your health. It takes a bit of time and money and a certain trial and error to find the right combination that is uniquely suited to you. But it is kind of fun to try all those things and DAMN, the health and vitality that are yours are absolutely PRICELESS. Enjoy the episode.

 

 

E208: Our Cities- A Naomi Wolf Reading

E208: Our Cities- A Naomi Wolf Reading

 

E208 Introduction

I have been a city dweller my whole life. A sophisticated urbanite, as they say. Living in both Seattle, then NYC for 10 years, and now back to Seattle to raise our family. I have LOVED the cities that I have been a part of. The culture, the humanity, the diversity, the human connection, the art and the food, the street scene, and yes, even the edge. The occasional violence and crime that come across your radar.

All of these have been part of my whole adult life. And there seems to be a common sentiment among many city dwellers these days. They can‘t wait to get out. Things are fraying in our great cities and it is in plain daylight for all of us to see. The violence, the mental health crisis, the crime, the homelessness, the hopelessness. Our cities seem lost don‘t they? Can we recover them?

The following is a reading of an article by the great writer Naomi Wolf. I will give you resources on where to find her at the end. Naomi is a former liberal writer, best-selling author, and thought leader and celebrity. She has famously been a walkaway from the left as the woke Marxist agenda started to alert her that something else was going on and perhaps she was being played. I know exactly how she feels.

Here I am acting as a simply voice-over, speaking Naomi‘s elegant words. I hope she doesn‘t mind that I pay tribute to her and her ideas this way. Enjoy!
