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.

 

 

Basecamp for Men E205: Bitcoin vs. CBDC

E205: Bitcoin vs. CBDC

 

E205 Introduction

Hello Basecampers. Today is Season Five’s last episode about Bitcoin. That might be a relief to some of you. Next season it will be on the docket again though. Why do I include these as part of the center of the Basecamp curriculum? Well, because it gives us maximum optionality, to use a concept that my guest is fond of.

Why do I love Bitcoin? It represents everything the state and the Globalists hate: freedom, sovereignty, optionality, self-responsibility, WE THE PEOPLE. They want us to continue to adopt systems with a centralized control structure. WE THE PEOPLE counter with decentralized money and systems that will drastically alter our future and the possibilities that await us.

Oh, it will take awhile to cleanse our souls of the taint of fiat money-its corruption, debasement, its massive wealth inequality, to mention just a few. But the more you study Bitcoin, the more it reveals itself as a great ally to humanity. A quiet warrior who snuck behind enemy lines to detonate a fucking bomb into systems that sought to centralize everything into a system meant to suffocate and suppress all human expression of individuality, joy, and personal freedom.

Did you know that the US Dollar has lost 97 percent of its purchasing power since 1913? Did you know that the dollar has lost 17 percent of its purchasing power in just the last 3 years alone? Something has to give.

Do you still think Bitcoin is a passing fad with no intrinsic value? Well, it has become the fastest asset to reach 1 trillion dollars To put it in perspective, it took Microsoft 44 years to reach 1 trillion in market cap. Apple took 42 years, Amazon 24 years, and Google 21 years. Bitcoin achieved this in just 12 years! And we haven’t even got to the institutional adoption yet that will just get accelerated with the spot ETF approval that looks to be heading our way in early 2024. Bitcoin looks like a loaded spring from where I sit. Do yourself and your family a favor and get off zero bro? Yes I’m talking to you. Don‘t stand around flat-footed wondering what is what. At this point, I think you have all the information you need.

Here are a few memes that relate to today’s show. One from Bitcoiner and visionary author Jeff Booth who says “Imagine watching what happens to other nations and their people as their currencies lost value yet failing to connect the dots to the consequences of it in your own country. Imagine.” 

And one from author Tom Clancy, who says “What the government is good at is collecting taxes, taking away your freedoms, and killing people. It‘s not good at much else.”

And a longer one but illuminating. I don‘t know who posted this, undoubtedly some Libertarian but it says

“125 years ago, you didn‘t have to ask permission form the government to: collect rain water, go fishing, own a property, start a business, build a home, get married, hunt, own a weapon, cut hair, sell a product, protest, sell food.

You can do virtually nothing without being extorted by the government and obtaining their permission first. If you still think you’re free, you‘re deluding yourself. You are just a free-range human living on a tax farm.”

And Jack Dorsey who simply says “Bitcoin changes absolutely everything.”

With these teeing up the episode, let’t get to our interview with Mark. Enjoy.

Basecamp for Men E202: Keeping Our Humanity

E202 Keeping Our Humanity with Special Guest Elisa E

 

E202 Introduction

Keeping our humanity. This seems to be a recurring theme with each and every guest I speak with. If you are even half-awake, you have no doubt noticed some disturbing signs in your city and town.

The homelessness and addiction. The pervasive mental health issues amongst every demographic group. The creeping sense of dread as if we are bracing for something……monumental and perhaps epoch defining. And collectively, we seem to have a combination of amnesia (as in we don’t really know our own Divinity or Soul’s Journey) and mid-level anxiety and fear that have become the water we are swimming in. Most of the people I observe looked frayed. As in torn and frayed. Those that took the jab are as my friend Mark Jeftovic has expressed “feeling like I have a ticking time bomb inside of me.”

And then there’s the lies and deception that are pushed at us daily. What does it do to the Soul to never be told the truth about anything important? How do we not only survive the toxic enslaught but learn to transmute and transcend the lead into gold? How do we not only survive but come out stronger, more aligned with the Light of the Christ, and more clear in our path together? These are the steps we are learning together. I am in this with all of you.

 

Before we get to the interview, I have a couple of quotes from my guests website to help tee this one up.

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” Edward Burke

“There is a plot in this country to enslave every man, woman and child. Before I leave this high and noble office, I intend to expose this plot.”John Fitzgerald Kennedy, 35th President of the United States of America, 7 days before his assassination in 1963.

Enjoy the interview.

Elisa E Bio

Elisa E is a survivor of MK Ultra programming born in New Jersey in the early 1960’s. Her story crosses the MK Ultra trauma-based programming of that era and runs into the technological advancements in the 1990’s. As a survivor and support person to other survivors, she chose to update her books in 2022 as a witness to what is occurring globally since late 2019. Her insights remain important du to the eyes to see and ears to hear beyond the narrative and into the esoteric agenda she has lived through. Here is my interview with Elisa E.

E202 Final Thoughts-

I so enjoyed this conversation and I appreciate Elisa‘s insights and courage to come onto Basecamp to share. In fact, when we were done recording, I immediately had a slew of new questions for her. We are talking one-to-one this week and hopefully, we’ll find a way to do a Part 2 of this sometime soon.

Her book is Our Life Beyond MK Ultra and you can find it on independent bookseller LogoSophia Books. A great opportunity to give your dollars to an independent business and not Amazon. They are at LogoSophiaBooks.com.

And the great Rudolph Steiner. A true visionary and mystic. One of our best. He was such a  prolific writer! One can spend a whole lifetime studying Steiner and still only scratch the surface, it seems. Essential material. You can Google Anthroposophy Rudolph Steiner and find lots of reading material.Thank you Basecampers and we’ll see you around the fire next week.

 

 

Basecamp for Men E201: The Unbreakable Human Spirit

E201: The Unbreakable Human Spirit with Special Guest

Christian Elliot

 

E201 Introduction

I love to speak with guests who can really frame things. I sometimes feel I am beating the same drum, in terms of this conflict we find ourselves with the psychopathic Globalists, exemplified by the WEF and their Communist/Totalitarian inspired Great Reset.

The Great Reset is more control for them, less freedom for you.

Most of the ways of describing this I have created a bit of a well-worn narrative road. The 5G war, the unconventional war, Humanity against the Globalists. So when I get a chance to speak with a guest who has a very skillful way of describing, not only the challenges we are currently facing but some of the remedies that we are creating, it is wonderful for me.

There is something unbreakable about the human Spirit and human creativity and ingenuity. Once we fully realize what we are up against, and we are all getting there, the human tribe can go to work on building the future that works for all of us. Ourselves and future generations. A future where we are partnered with our technology instead of being squashed, fused, and dominated by it.

Today‘s interview had a lot of little light bulbs going off for me. I hope you enjoy it as well.

E201 Final Thoughts-

So good to speak again with Christian. He got me taking a kind and gentle look at how I interact with technology. Rather than mindlessly engaging with my phone and my music and podcasts, I am starting to explore ways to reduce the body burden.

Christian is at www.truewholehuman.com and has a ton of great content. Go get connected.

Thank you Basecampers and we’ll see you around the fire next week.

Basecamp for Men E200: A Basecamp Retrospective

E200: A Basecamp Retrospective

 

E200 Introduction

Today’s show is E200 and a bit of a landmark episode for me. When I was originally chosen to host a show for men way back in early 2019, I had no idea I would still be doing this well into our fifth season. It goes to show you how mysterious the Divine is and how mysterious our own Hero’s Journeys are if we surrender to higher, more powerful currents than our own.

As I was fumbling my way through season one, I heard a small, clear voice. One I have come to recognize as my Higher Self or the Divine within me. Or God whispering to me. It simply said “Do 200 high quality episodes. That is your task.” I accepted.

When I shared this story with my teenage son Lucas, he asked me “what are going to do after EP 200?”. I said “Do episode #201, of course!”I love doing this and I have found this to be a medium of creativity that really suits my particular creative strengths and it aligns with my mission to assist humanity.

As I was reflecting back on the first five seasons, a few things jumped out at me. First, BFM started out as strictly a personal development show for men. This was tapping into my own experience as the author of a humble little book for men and the fact that I had long led small men‘s groups throughout my time as a man. Conversations with men and leading men was something that came natural to me.

But as we moved moved through season one and beyond, my love of myth, mysticism, and transcendence began to be expressed in more and more episodes. I started to recognize God’s hand in my choice of guests and topics. I began to deeply understand that I was simply a vehicle and it was the work of God that was asking to write the episodes speak to the people…..enjoy the look back and thank you listeners!
