Basecamp for Men E270: Freedom, Sunshine, and Steak

E270: Freedom, Sunshine, and Steak w Special Guest Ben Wehrman

 

E270 Introduction

One of the things that we have been tasked with, you and I, is to consider and, when appropriate, to adopt new ways of seeing things. We have been given so many false notions in so many areas: gov’t, education, media, and health, for instance.

The best we can do, imho, is to keep an open mind. Continue to look for ideas and people that uplift and inspire you. For they are your fellow travellers in this great awakening we are experiencing.

Humanity seems to be emerging from the fog of deception. Our antennas is getting more sharply attuned to Truth. The more the Truth comes to Light, the more confident we become in our path and in ourselves and one another.

What are some of these new ideas that are emerging that can help elevate us? We will cover much of this and more today with a man that I have had the great fortune to connect with. This could easily be two men sitting around the campfire talking far and wide about our shared future.

Before we get to the episode, I wanted to read two memes for you that I think will help tee this one up.. One from my guests website a quote from the writer Timothy Ferris: 

“ The specialist spends decades making incremental improvements, while the curious generalist consistently measures improvement in quantum leaps.”

And finally, one from my own website. “Truth is also seeking the Seeker.”

Enjoy the episode.

E270 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed that conversation as much as I did. I love it when I am learning new things and new perspectives from the guest in real time. I will be experimenting with this carnivore diet. Just need to figure out when and what that looks like. Might need to get some buy-in from my wife to really make this a do-able experiment. I will keep you posted. Thank you Basecampers and we’ll see you around the fire next week.

Basecamp for Men E262: Bitcoin for Military Veterans

E262: Bitcoin for Military Veterans with Special Guest Gabe Lord

 

E262 Introduction

It is hard to believe that we are only a week into Donald Trump’s Presidency and everything that has unfolded……IN ONE WEEK!!!

No more DEI in the gov‘t with is having massive ripples out into the corporate world with Walmart and Target (amongst many others) shuddering their DEI offices and trainings.

No more biological men in women and girls sports and locker rooms. Yay! I don‘t have a daughter but boy if I did, I wouldn’t want a bunch of dudes pretending to be women in there with her. Gross. We are going back to common sense Basecampers.

Pete Hegseth was just confirmed as Sec of Defense and he is all about getting woke leadership and trainings out of the military. We are going to start to see the American military flexing again. Oh, and President Trump is bringing back all military that refused the jab for religious and/or personal reasons. WITH FULL BACK PAY. That is awesome and just btw.

Mass deportation of illegal criminals has started. This will go on for quite some time, I would imagine. America is not the kind of place for open borders. The good President has sent the Marines to the southern border. Boy, that will change the feel down there, don’t you think? Sometimes you have to show strength and back it up. Worked well for Reagan. This is Trump”s flex: peace through strength.

Now we seem to be in a reset. Not the Great Reset engineered by the Globalists and the WEF and sociopaths like Klaus Schwab and Bill Gates. This reset is an American renewal and a return to our Republic, I believe. We are still in the early innings with a lot of game theory left to be played out. But I sure like what I am seeing from our team.

And I have some good news! I have been hired by the King County Republican party to write, produce, and host a new podcast that we are calling The American Pulse. More details to come but we are actively working on the first three episodes. I will keep you updated in the days to come.

Today’s episode is with a military veteran who’s father turned him onto Bitcoin. An interesting interview with an American veteran who is on a noble mission. Enjoy the interview!

Basecamp for Men E259: Bitcoin is The Way

E259: Bitcoin is The Way with Special Guest Caribou

 

E259 Introduction

What a time to be alive! There seems to be a sea change happening. A change in the tide, can you feel it? I was at a couple of events recently and a number of people came up to me and said that, since Trump’s re-election, they are feeling a sense of optimism, something that has been missing for a long time for most Americans.

Americans are known for their optimism and when that is missing, something essential gets lost. For me, I see our optimism, playfulness, and sense of excitement as a sort of super-power. The systems we have lived under (they are really the systems of the Globalists not WE THE PEOPLE) have created this sort of quiet desperation in people.

In the current fiat system, things will keep getting more expensive FOREVER. Think about that. No wonder people look so fried. Nobody can keep up.

The antidote is Bitcoin. On a Bitcoin Standard, everthing that you need in life will continually get cheaper in life, forever. We seem to be at an inflection point with the re-electon of President Trump. There is a confluence of Orange Man with Orange Coin and people are excited once again by the possibilities that are before us.

And people are starting to realize that Bitcoin, this strange, wonderful, pro-humanity, technology is not just a new money but sits at the center of a full frontal assault on the corrupt Globalist fiat system we all grew up with. Better days are ahead of us Basecampers. It is happening and it is happening FAST.

I wish you all Godspeed on this one Basecampers. Enjoy this excellent interview.

Caribou Bio

My guest today goes by the name of Caribou. Caribou is a father, a Bitcoiner, an independent creative thinker, and a regenerative farmer. Here is my interview with Caribou.

E259 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed that interview as much as I did. What a bright, clear thinker he is. Really loved that. There a revolution afoot and it centers around Bitcoin. If ever there was something to roll up your sleeves and understand, it is this. Thank you Basecampers and we’ll see you around the fire next week.

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.
