Basecamp for Men E303: Keeping Optimism Alive

E303: Keeping Optimism Alive w Special Guest Lisa Rezac

 

E303 Introduction 

Hello Basecampers, I hope you are all doing well. We are winding down Season #7 and I hope you have enjoyed the conversations and content. Just like in seasons past, we will be taking a Holiday sabbatical from Basecamp. Tuesday Nov 18th will be the season finale and it looks to be a Basecamp Classic as I don‘t have a guest for next week. I will be sure to pick out a good one to finish on.

We will return with fresh episodes and energy on Tues Jan 20th.

Today’s episode is really about optimism. It is something I think about quite often. I have referred to it as an American superpower and I truly believe that it is. And you can see the devastating impact this war on humanity and America has had by the lack of optimism we see in so many of our people (and especially) our young people.

It seems that part of the Globalist agenda is to demoralize us to the point that we lose hope that our shared future could once again be good and uplifting and beautiful.

If you are a naturally optimistic person, like I am and my guest today, this may be the most important timeline for you and this superpower of yours.

There are mythological powers that come with optimism and carrying the Light. And these powers are surrendered by you if you give up hope thinking that we are all alone or that we can’t win against this entrenched darkness. Hang in there Basecampers for we believe that we have powerful allies ready to assist humanity in these important next chapters. Enjoy the episode.

E302: AI and the Achilles Heel

 

E302 Introduction

Hello Basecampers I hope you are all doing well. Today’s interview is with our old friend Reinette Senum. We cover a wide range of topics around her recent article where she highlighted a most interesting conversation between her and Chat GPT.

The article, which I highly recommend you go read on her Substack The Foghorn Express, highlights the source of Chat GPT, what some of the motives that are encoded in its algorithms, what sorts of things the Elite’s may be plotting and what is our optimal response.

Yep, Chat GPT even tells us the best way to defeat the full court press for digital slavery and surveillance. Hint, hint, its unplugging, developing strong community, and using decentralized freedom technology with minimal surveillance and tracking.

Seems overwhelming? I’m with you. But you know how these things go. Brick by brick Basecampers. Brick by brick. Enjoy the interview.

E302 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed that conversation as much as I did. Go subscribe to Reinette‘s excellent substack titled The Foghorn Express. And she is constantly putting up content and resources to enlighten and equip humanity including ways to start to unplug from the centralized, digital control grid and what if we all started to unplug from their matrix, what might be possible? Hmm. Thank you Basecampers and we’ll see you around the fire next week.

E301: The Cosmic Clock Turns

 

E301 Introduction

Hello Basecampers, I hope you are all doing well. Today is a Firestarter Episode. Firestarters were created years ago and they are basically a shorter format episode with just me. I sprinkle these in throughout each season to add variety and they give me the opportunity to stretch out some of my writing and thinking on a variety of topics.

As a proud member of team humanity, I have witnessed the devastating effects of the war of wars on our bodies, minds, and Souls.

When I drive around my city, Seattle, I see heartbreaking evidence of this war. Addiction, mental illness, homelessness, a sort of spiritual confusion as to what the hell just happened or IS happening.

And you can see the confusion in the masses as well. People still triggered by things that happened years ago or things that are not true at all. It is all a bit surreal, isn‘t it?

One of the things that I have noticed and commented on before is the uglification of everything we see around us. Have you noticed this all you city dwellers? It is in all our cities but most evident in the liberal run cities.

It is not just witnessing all the despair and addiction and mental illness. That is ugly and distressing in and of itself. It’s the filth and the garbage and feces and then there is the “new” architecture. Much of it is also ugly. City planners will happily tear down houses and buidings that are old and beautiful to make room for ugly structures that don’t inspire.

And then there is the ugliness in advertising. They used to try and put beautiful imagery in front of you to try and keep your attention. Now? They will put people and images meant to sort of shock you and shake your head. Super Bowl halftime shows, for instance. More and more Satanic imagery, blood red as the dominant color, weird Baphomet imagery, horns, the one-eye covered to show their allegiances to the Dark Lord.

What is the impact of all this ugliness? Well, what are you seeing? I think it is clearly meant to demoralize all of us, don’t you?

Think about the Renaissance for a minute. EVERYTHING was meant to inspire us and bring us closer to God. All the artists and creators clearly said so. So the architecture reached for the heavens. Look at the beautiful cathedrals and castles of Europe. Or the beautiful buildings and Grand Central Station in NYC.

Musicians like Mozart and Bach and Beethoven tried their best to express and awaken the God spark in each and every one of us. Shakespeare and poets did their part to remind us all of who we are.

Currently, we cannot confirm our immanent ascension and embrace of the Divine with what we see OUTSIDE of ourselves, in our surroundings. Are you following me? We can’t win by looking at what they are attempting to do to demoralize us. Our Divine power comes from within. Just as Christ himself said.

Sometimes I think of our Divinity, our alignment with God and Spirit as a sort of innocence. The War on Humanity has been an all out attempt to sever our belief and connection to God.

And it has been a war on children. Both children themselves and the inner child, full of innocence and wonder at the mystery of it all, that lives in each and every one of us.

I see a sacred duty for all of us here. To keep the Divine flame strong in ourselves AND to keep the innocence of the little boy and little girl that live in each and every one of us.

It does not mean that we act childish in all sorts of ways. Far from it. It means we are in touch with our Source and that we have something inside of us that we are sworn to protect. The Divine Child, who has been under constant assault by those that hate humanity.

The narrative war and cosmic chess game has many layers. Reality consisting of frequency and vibration and resonance. What is true for you may not be true for others. What is occurring resists easy dismissives. If reality and WE OURSELVES are multi-dimensional, then The great Cosmic Game becomes a individual AND collective Hero’s Journey for all.

How do YOU connect and align with what is most Divine, most Christ-inspired, most dignified and, indeed, most beautiful and innocent in YOU?

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

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Basecamp for Men E299: What Keeps Us From One Another?

E299: What Keeps Us From One Another?

 

E299 Introduction

I love speaking with people who are a stand for humanity and children. And who carry truth and optimism about our future. There is a wonderful strength to these people that flies in the face of all the doom and gloom that we all hear.

Today, my guest and I range far and wide but one of the takeaways is the desire for unification in our country. Both sides have been traumatized by the divide. Family and long-time friend groups pulled apart by differences of opinion and the engine of social media that seems to know just how to trigger all of us.

One of the things I that came away with is my own desire to hear the other side. I think I have finally set aside my own hurt over having dear friends leave my orbit and I feel more steady now. Less reactive. And ready to serve more of humanity. Not just my fellow Conservatives. My guest and I share stories and a similar desire to start to heal what has ailed our fellow Americans, regardless of political orientation.

Today’s interview is a really good one and a little longer than usual so let’s get right to it.

 Jessica Arburn Bio

My guest today is Jessica Arburn. Jessica is mother, a patriot, and another walkaway from the left. She is also the Director of Mom-Army, a group of courageous women standing to protect our children . Here is my interview with Jessica Arburn.

E299 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed that conversation as much as I did. Always great to connect with Jessica. I love people that are open to new conversations and I am looking forward to the Dad Army get together that Jessica mentioned. We’ll give you details as we know more.

 

Basecamp for Men E298: Basecamp Classic

E298: Basecamp Classic

 

E298 Introduction

Well, with all sorts of things going on including getting over to our new house in central Washington and my beloved Seattle Mariners making the playoffs and scoring tickets, I just ran out of runway to get you something useful by Tues.

But do not fear Basecampers, we have our trusty Basecamp Classics where I take a real gem from our extensive back catalogue and offer it to you again. These are not random selections. I do my best to get you some of my best content and episodes that still feel really relevant to what is going on in the world and what might be going on with you personally.

This one is from back in season #4 with James Rapson titled Freeing Yourself from “Niceness”. It is perfect for all you people-pleasers out there and I used to be one of them. A healthy dose of menswork cured me of it and James and I talk all about it in the episode.

Also, I want to write a short episode on the storm that we are all facing. It seems the rapidly changing landscape is creating all sorts of inner chaos and turmoil as we all prepare for our black belt test in how fast can you integrate new inputs and a changing reality. Are you following me? I think I can write a juicy Firestarter in the next week or two.

For the time being, enjoy this Basecamp Classic with James Rapson.
