WEBVTT

00:00:06.876 --> 00:00:09.417
I'm a coach of B.I.O.V.

00:00:09.698 --> 00:00:11.339
I'm a king.

00:00:11.378 --> 00:00:14.839
Back to loving everything.

00:00:14.859 --> 00:00:16.059
Bringing change.

00:00:16.079 --> 00:00:17.001
Making it last.

00:00:17.021 --> 00:00:19.442
Join the firm of love.

00:00:34.997 --> 00:00:38.021
Welcome to episode four-sixty-seven of the

00:00:38.060 --> 00:00:39.322
Permaculture Pimpcast,

00:00:39.381 --> 00:00:42.465
where pimp stands for permaculture is my

00:00:42.524 --> 00:00:43.005
passion.

00:00:43.485 --> 00:00:45.607
The only pimpcast on this earth that

00:00:45.648 --> 00:00:47.869
discusses permaculture, preparedness,

00:00:48.329 --> 00:00:49.131
practical living,

00:00:49.191 --> 00:00:50.752
and sometimes prostitutes.

00:00:58.798 --> 00:00:59.459
Oh, yeah,

00:00:59.478 --> 00:01:01.280
it's Thursday and I'm back here with you

00:01:01.299 --> 00:01:01.820
this time.

00:01:01.899 --> 00:01:03.500
I'm flying solo, folks.

00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:05.501
You know what time it is.

00:01:06.102 --> 00:01:08.543
William can't be here tonight and I don't

00:01:08.563 --> 00:01:10.444
have a guest because, you know,

00:01:10.463 --> 00:01:11.703
it's cool to have guests on here,

00:01:11.763 --> 00:01:13.405
especially the ones that we've had lately.

00:01:14.144 --> 00:01:14.965
Actually, you know,

00:01:15.144 --> 00:01:17.066
all of them have just been absolutely

00:01:17.105 --> 00:01:17.745
fantastic,

00:01:17.786 --> 00:01:19.546
dropping excellent stuff out there.

00:01:20.167 --> 00:01:21.548
But tonight I'm riding solo.

00:01:21.608 --> 00:01:22.748
William can't be here.

00:01:22.787 --> 00:01:24.828
He's up to something else right now.

00:01:25.248 --> 00:01:26.510
I want to give a hat tip to

00:01:26.629 --> 00:01:27.849
everybody that's out there.

00:01:28.069 --> 00:01:30.290
Andy and Nancy always, as you know,

00:01:30.331 --> 00:01:31.090
here as always.

00:01:31.552 --> 00:01:32.891
Hey, hey, Alabama.

00:01:33.352 --> 00:01:34.533
That's what I'm talking about.

00:01:35.112 --> 00:01:35.412
All right.

00:01:35.453 --> 00:01:36.733
Everybody that's in here checking us out,

00:01:36.754 --> 00:01:37.634
hit that thumbs up.

00:01:37.674 --> 00:01:39.114
Tell everybody we're live.

00:01:39.575 --> 00:01:39.834
All right.

00:01:39.894 --> 00:01:41.055
Sovereign Health Summit, y'all.

00:01:41.174 --> 00:01:43.036
That's who brought you this show.

00:01:43.456 --> 00:01:44.917
It's going to be October twenty seven

00:01:44.936 --> 00:01:47.578
through the thirty first out in Harmony,

00:01:47.638 --> 00:01:48.299
North Carolina.

00:01:48.780 --> 00:01:51.822
TPC Tango Papa Charlie will get you five

00:01:51.861 --> 00:01:52.522
percent off.

00:01:53.043 --> 00:01:53.442
Be there.

00:01:53.643 --> 00:01:54.403
Be square.

00:01:54.903 --> 00:01:55.424
You know, hey,

00:01:55.465 --> 00:01:56.465
if you don't want to be there live,

00:01:56.484 --> 00:01:58.087
you can do it at home on your

00:01:58.167 --> 00:01:58.647
couch.

00:01:59.287 --> 00:02:00.408
Yeah, we got that option, too.

00:02:00.447 --> 00:02:01.308
So go check it out.

00:02:01.368 --> 00:02:03.030
TPC will get you squared away.

00:02:03.570 --> 00:02:05.031
Also, EMP shield, y'all.

00:02:05.712 --> 00:02:08.677
Been a journeyman electrician for almost –

00:02:07.655 --> 00:02:09.837
IBEW journeyman electrician for almost

00:02:10.338 --> 00:02:11.180
thirty years now.

00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:12.521
It's been a long time.

00:02:13.242 --> 00:02:14.685
And I'm here to tell you there's not

00:02:14.784 --> 00:02:17.127
another transient voltage surge suppressor

00:02:17.247 --> 00:02:19.671
on the market outside of EMP Shield.

00:02:19.731 --> 00:02:22.735
If anything gets Kentucky Fried downstream

00:02:22.735 --> 00:02:23.115
–

00:02:22.816 --> 00:02:24.056
They're going to cover you for twenty five

00:02:24.097 --> 00:02:24.478
G's.

00:02:24.877 --> 00:02:26.879
Find me another deal out there like that.

00:02:26.900 --> 00:02:27.860
They got them for your car,

00:02:27.901 --> 00:02:29.323
your solar setup, you name it.

00:02:30.003 --> 00:02:32.466
EMP Shield will get you squared away.

00:02:33.026 --> 00:02:33.326
All right.

00:02:33.366 --> 00:02:35.128
So it's off and running today before.

00:02:35.169 --> 00:02:36.150
Hey, check this out.

00:02:36.250 --> 00:02:37.711
I got some good news out there for

00:02:38.171 --> 00:02:39.393
folks that might be looking for it.

00:02:40.312 --> 00:02:41.394
I don't get anything for it,

00:02:41.954 --> 00:02:44.056
but Wellbots has been very,

00:02:44.096 --> 00:02:45.076
very good to this show,

00:02:45.197 --> 00:02:46.518
and they've allowed me to test a lot

00:02:46.538 --> 00:02:47.218
of their equipment.

00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:49.501
And that's really saying something because

00:02:49.561 --> 00:02:51.122
I can't even tell you how many people,

00:02:51.622 --> 00:02:53.824
when they find out my former career as

00:02:53.865 --> 00:02:54.604
an electrician,

00:02:55.105 --> 00:02:56.687
they're a little reluctant about sending

00:02:56.706 --> 00:02:57.608
electronics to me.

00:02:58.027 --> 00:02:58.207
Folks,

00:02:58.228 --> 00:03:00.009
you have no idea the things that have

00:03:00.189 --> 00:03:02.372
never, ever seen the light of day.

00:03:02.991 --> 00:03:04.372
And I had a garage full of them.

00:03:04.432 --> 00:03:04.614
I mean,

00:03:04.753 --> 00:03:06.495
some of this stuff was so doggone useless,

00:03:06.594 --> 00:03:07.235
I had to throw it away,

00:03:07.276 --> 00:03:08.116
but not Wellbots.

00:03:08.757 --> 00:03:09.737
Man, I ain't kidding you all.

00:03:09.758 --> 00:03:11.859
They got the cream of the crop over

00:03:11.878 --> 00:03:13.038
there, and they got a deal.

00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:14.500
And check this out.

00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:16.820
Elliott over at Wellbots has decided to

00:03:16.881 --> 00:03:19.421
extend the deal they got, I think,

00:03:19.461 --> 00:03:20.582
until the end of tonight.

00:03:20.622 --> 00:03:22.524
So you better hop on it.

00:03:22.743 --> 00:03:24.504
B-Day.com.

00:03:24.645 --> 00:03:27.227
Bravo, Delta, Alpha, Yankee,

00:03:27.447 --> 00:03:29.329
the number thirteen, B-Day thirteen,

00:03:29.348 --> 00:03:30.530
because it's their thirteen year

00:03:30.569 --> 00:03:31.131
anniversary,

00:03:31.711 --> 00:03:33.032
will knock thirteen percent off that

00:03:33.072 --> 00:03:33.332
price.

00:03:33.353 --> 00:03:33.633
And folks,

00:03:33.652 --> 00:03:34.633
you got to see some of the stuff

00:03:34.653 --> 00:03:35.754
they got over there right now.

00:03:36.294 --> 00:03:38.056
I'm talking everything from EcoFlow,

00:03:38.176 --> 00:03:42.640
Jackery, drones, underwater drones,

00:03:42.721 --> 00:03:44.322
and some of this stuff is more than

00:03:44.361 --> 00:03:45.223
fifty percent off.

00:03:46.337 --> 00:03:48.098
Like I said, Wellbots doesn't sell junk,

00:03:48.139 --> 00:03:48.419
y'all.

00:03:48.439 --> 00:03:50.961
So I highly endorse the stuff they sell.

00:03:51.722 --> 00:03:52.842
And I've tested a lot of it.

00:03:52.882 --> 00:03:54.242
They have never sent me junk.

00:03:54.704 --> 00:03:55.544
So go over there.

00:03:55.563 --> 00:03:55.963
Like I said,

00:03:56.645 --> 00:03:57.906
we don't get anything for it out of

00:03:57.925 --> 00:03:58.286
the show.

00:03:58.425 --> 00:03:59.426
It's just, you know what?

00:03:59.467 --> 00:04:00.486
They're an awesome company.

00:04:01.008 --> 00:04:02.389
And how many times have I talked about

00:04:02.588 --> 00:04:05.289
other awesome companies on here without

00:04:05.389 --> 00:04:06.270
any thought of rewards?

00:04:06.311 --> 00:04:07.532
So folks, that's what it is.

00:04:07.572 --> 00:04:08.412
So Wellbots,

00:04:08.431 --> 00:04:09.973
I'll probably try and circle back around

00:04:10.013 --> 00:04:10.894
and cover that later on.

00:04:11.413 --> 00:04:13.536
All right, so let's jump into the...

00:04:14.669 --> 00:04:16.531
the farm news, check this out.

00:04:16.550 --> 00:04:18.411
Y'all Michelle went back East.

00:04:18.630 --> 00:04:18.711
Uh,

00:04:18.790 --> 00:04:20.651
New York is where she's from upstate New

00:04:20.711 --> 00:04:21.031
York.

00:04:21.992 --> 00:04:22.512
And, um,

00:04:22.653 --> 00:04:24.132
she drove back there to go see our

00:04:24.192 --> 00:04:24.973
niece graduate.

00:04:25.653 --> 00:04:27.314
Congratulations, Jalen, by the way.

00:04:28.154 --> 00:04:28.274
Um,

00:04:29.098 --> 00:04:31.641
On the way back, every single time, y'all,

00:04:31.762 --> 00:04:32.583
okay, check this out.

00:04:33.343 --> 00:04:34.163
I got a lead foot.

00:04:34.343 --> 00:04:35.565
Nobody's going to deny that.

00:04:36.165 --> 00:04:37.326
I almost never get pulled over.

00:04:37.367 --> 00:04:38.048
And when I do,

00:04:39.088 --> 00:04:41.250
I would say it's about a ninety percent

00:04:41.290 --> 00:04:41.451
of the.

00:04:42.072 --> 00:04:43.954
Now, I hope I'm not jinxing myself here,

00:04:43.973 --> 00:04:45.956
but ninety to ninety five percent of the

00:04:45.995 --> 00:04:46.175
time,

00:04:46.216 --> 00:04:48.459
I would say I usually get out with

00:04:48.538 --> 00:04:49.519
a with a warning.

00:04:50.367 --> 00:04:51.267
And the reason why,

00:04:51.668 --> 00:04:53.249
I don't make any excuses,

00:04:53.309 --> 00:04:56.009
especially if I knew I was out of

00:04:56.129 --> 00:04:56.331
order.

00:04:56.370 --> 00:04:57.690
But I will say that if I make

00:04:57.730 --> 00:04:59.451
those cops laugh, when I usually do,

00:04:59.471 --> 00:05:00.252
when they come up there,

00:05:00.992 --> 00:05:02.394
like the one time is like, hey,

00:05:03.394 --> 00:05:04.454
why were you going so fast?

00:05:04.475 --> 00:05:05.656
And I said, honestly,

00:05:05.716 --> 00:05:06.636
I thought I was going to get away

00:05:06.656 --> 00:05:06.896
with it.

00:05:07.416 --> 00:05:08.538
He busts out laughing.

00:05:09.377 --> 00:05:10.238
Came back with a warning.

00:05:10.658 --> 00:05:12.321
And then I said something similar like

00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:13.862
that to all the other people out there.

00:05:14.242 --> 00:05:14.423
I mean,

00:05:14.442 --> 00:05:15.863
there's no sense in fighting these guys.

00:05:15.903 --> 00:05:16.403
But anyway,

00:05:17.324 --> 00:05:19.166
every single time Michelle comes back from

00:05:19.226 --> 00:05:19.627
New York,

00:05:19.646 --> 00:05:21.228
when she goes back there to visit family,

00:05:21.769 --> 00:05:24.031
she gets pulled over in Virginia,

00:05:24.831 --> 00:05:26.413
not New York, even though New York,

00:05:26.454 --> 00:05:27.194
Massachusetts,

00:05:27.975 --> 00:05:29.096
I've never been pulled over there.

00:05:29.115 --> 00:05:29.896
And I've, you know,

00:05:30.177 --> 00:05:31.798
they got every other sign on the road

00:05:31.838 --> 00:05:32.579
is don't do this.

00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:33.259
Don't do that.

00:05:35.461 --> 00:05:35.781
But again,

00:05:36.757 --> 00:05:38.579
Virginia, of all places.

00:05:39.339 --> 00:05:40.281
So check this out.

00:05:40.300 --> 00:05:41.721
It's not that she just got pulled over,

00:05:41.942 --> 00:05:42.182
y'all.

00:05:42.223 --> 00:05:43.423
You're not even going to believe what I'm

00:05:43.444 --> 00:05:44.223
going to tell you right now.

00:05:44.805 --> 00:05:46.125
Maybe actually some of you will.

00:05:46.605 --> 00:05:46.726
Now,

00:05:46.747 --> 00:05:48.247
it's not uncommon for me to get a

00:05:48.288 --> 00:05:48.548
ticket.

00:05:48.588 --> 00:05:50.129
Whenever I got to go to places like

00:05:50.189 --> 00:05:52.071
Dallas or Houston or anything like that,

00:05:53.132 --> 00:05:54.273
I just want to get out of there

00:05:54.293 --> 00:05:55.173
as quick as I can.

00:05:55.274 --> 00:05:57.035
So sometimes I accidentally,

00:05:57.055 --> 00:05:57.935
and I mean accidentally,

00:05:57.956 --> 00:05:58.916
get on a turnpike.

00:05:59.456 --> 00:05:59.958
Next thing you know,

00:05:59.978 --> 00:06:00.959
I'm getting a bill in the mail.

00:06:01.723 --> 00:06:02.504
Well, check this out.

00:06:02.545 --> 00:06:03.865
That wasn't the case going here.

00:06:04.627 --> 00:06:07.889
She got a violation by a modified flock

00:06:07.910 --> 00:06:10.612
camera saying, dig this.

00:06:10.793 --> 00:06:11.473
And I wrote it down.

00:06:11.514 --> 00:06:13.516
It's not a moving violation.

00:06:14.476 --> 00:06:15.598
It's a civil violation.

00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:18.161
Yeah, I said it right.

00:06:18.281 --> 00:06:19.281
Not a moving violation,

00:06:19.302 --> 00:06:20.242
but a civil violation.

00:06:20.944 --> 00:06:22.685
And they send this picture of the truck.

00:06:23.581 --> 00:06:25.362
that Michelle was allegedly driving.

00:06:25.502 --> 00:06:26.403
I don't see her in it.

00:06:27.103 --> 00:06:28.824
Anyway, she was allegedly driving it.

00:06:29.545 --> 00:06:32.047
It's like these stoplight cameras that

00:06:32.067 --> 00:06:33.108
they had in Kansas City.

00:06:33.649 --> 00:06:35.209
If you ever went in to fight it,

00:06:35.250 --> 00:06:37.411
they would always drop the case because

00:06:37.430 --> 00:06:38.552
they knew it was a violation of your

00:06:38.572 --> 00:06:39.173
Fourth Amendment.

00:06:39.213 --> 00:06:41.014
Folks, this is what it's come to now.

00:06:41.894 --> 00:06:46.398
So anyway, it's not a moving violation,

00:06:47.017 --> 00:06:48.319
not a civil violation,

00:06:49.220 --> 00:06:51.120
and apparently she blew by a work zone.

00:06:51.341 --> 00:06:52.983
Okay, where's the cop?

00:06:54.314 --> 00:06:55.415
This is how we're doing it now?

00:06:55.975 --> 00:06:57.216
Do you know how many people are probably

00:06:57.235 --> 00:06:57.755
getting tickets,

00:06:57.776 --> 00:06:59.516
almost certainly getting tickets this way,

00:07:00.156 --> 00:07:01.918
and they're just paying the money instead

00:07:01.937 --> 00:07:02.718
of fighting this thing?

00:07:02.937 --> 00:07:04.137
I don't care what we got to do.

00:07:04.557 --> 00:07:05.499
Ain't paying this money.

00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:06.259
I mean,

00:07:06.298 --> 00:07:07.718
you could send my mail to the county

00:07:07.738 --> 00:07:08.040
jail.

00:07:08.139 --> 00:07:09.579
I know it's a hundred bucks, but hey,

00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:11.800
a hundred bucks ain't nothing to sneeze at

00:07:11.841 --> 00:07:12.641
where I come from.

00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:15.362
And we work hard for a hundred bucks.

00:07:15.382 --> 00:07:16.482
And I know all of you do too

00:07:16.521 --> 00:07:16.901
as well.

00:07:17.702 --> 00:07:18.483
So we ain't paying it.

00:07:19.512 --> 00:07:21.112
And if it comes down to, you know,

00:07:21.192 --> 00:07:22.653
not being able to drive, I mean,

00:07:23.134 --> 00:07:24.456
Michelle would drive around the whole

00:07:24.495 --> 00:07:25.495
state of Oklahoma.

00:07:26.276 --> 00:07:27.117
I'm dead serious.

00:07:28.617 --> 00:07:28.718
Um,

00:07:29.119 --> 00:07:30.660
might just have to find ways around

00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:31.540
Virginia as well.

00:07:31.581 --> 00:07:33.721
This is, this is getting ridiculous y'all.

00:07:33.841 --> 00:07:34.062
I mean,

00:07:34.101 --> 00:07:36.764
this is absolutely positively getting

00:07:36.783 --> 00:07:37.345
ridiculous.

00:07:38.045 --> 00:07:38.404
So anyway,

00:07:38.444 --> 00:07:39.565
that's one of those freedom things I

00:07:39.586 --> 00:07:40.387
wanted to kick out there.

00:07:40.427 --> 00:07:41.908
If anybody else has had, you know,

00:07:41.987 --> 00:07:43.088
similar situations, you know,

00:07:43.149 --> 00:07:43.869
tell me in the chat.

00:07:44.730 --> 00:07:44.829
Um,

00:07:45.853 --> 00:07:47.274
So I'll just jump on other things.

00:07:47.314 --> 00:07:49.656
So water your compost, folks.

00:07:50.255 --> 00:07:51.637
That's another one I got on the list.

00:07:52.336 --> 00:07:53.598
It's one of those things to do,

00:07:53.658 --> 00:07:55.639
especially when you got five thousand

00:07:55.658 --> 00:07:57.560
things going on at the same time.

00:07:58.199 --> 00:07:59.661
Let's say you went and you watched our

00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:01.322
video or maybe you watch William's video

00:08:01.362 --> 00:08:02.362
on how to make compost.

00:08:02.862 --> 00:08:03.663
Let's say it's really,

00:08:03.702 --> 00:08:06.124
really awesome bio complete compost.

00:08:06.223 --> 00:08:08.865
Even you can ruin it all just by

00:08:08.925 --> 00:08:09.706
letting it dry out.

00:08:10.887 --> 00:08:12.048
Folks, you don't want to do that.

00:08:12.069 --> 00:08:14.170
That's exactly why I tell everybody water

00:08:14.190 --> 00:08:14.752
your compost.

00:08:14.771 --> 00:08:15.853
And I try to do it, you know,

00:08:15.952 --> 00:08:16.814
weekly or, you know,

00:08:16.894 --> 00:08:18.314
bi-monthly or something like that.

00:08:19.055 --> 00:08:19.956
So I want to make sure you,

00:08:20.216 --> 00:08:21.298
but when you do it,

00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:23.220
here's one of the ways I do it.

00:08:23.740 --> 00:08:24.901
If you have, I got three,

00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:25.862
let me see, one, two.

00:08:25.922 --> 00:08:26.101
Yeah,

00:08:26.122 --> 00:08:28.403
I got three different compost piles going

00:08:28.423 --> 00:08:28.785
right now.

00:08:29.495 --> 00:08:31.596
One of them is an older, mature compost.

00:08:31.776 --> 00:08:34.155
The other one is probably bio complete and

00:08:34.176 --> 00:08:35.296
the other one not so much.

00:08:36.076 --> 00:08:37.136
And when I say not so much,

00:08:37.677 --> 00:08:38.756
it's just going to need more time.

00:08:38.797 --> 00:08:39.256
And plus,

00:08:39.317 --> 00:08:41.217
it doesn't help that I put a dead

00:08:42.457 --> 00:08:43.177
lamb in there.

00:08:43.317 --> 00:08:44.878
So that's got to break down.

00:08:45.619 --> 00:08:47.479
And every time I put blood in a

00:08:47.538 --> 00:08:48.899
pile, urine in a pile,

00:08:49.038 --> 00:08:49.679
any of that stuff,

00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:50.740
it's always going to be improved.

00:08:51.460 --> 00:08:52.799
But here's a couple of tricks that you

00:08:52.820 --> 00:08:55.321
might employ when it comes to your compost

00:08:55.341 --> 00:08:55.600
pile.

00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:56.461
Yeah,

00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:57.601
you can go out there and put water

00:08:57.662 --> 00:08:57.861
on it.

00:08:57.902 --> 00:08:59.342
By the way, if you do use water,

00:08:59.442 --> 00:09:01.484
don't use chlorinated or fluoridated

00:09:01.524 --> 00:09:01.845
water.

00:09:02.585 --> 00:09:03.885
Best way in the world to kill all

00:09:03.905 --> 00:09:05.466
the microbes in there, so don't do that.

00:09:05.966 --> 00:09:06.967
If you've got to use that kind of

00:09:06.988 --> 00:09:08.308
water, set it out for a while,

00:09:08.328 --> 00:09:09.229
let it off gas,

00:09:09.609 --> 00:09:10.809
hit it with a little bit of fulvic

00:09:10.929 --> 00:09:13.111
acid, fulvic slash humic acid.

00:09:13.131 --> 00:09:14.392
You can buy that stuff in a lot

00:09:14.452 --> 00:09:14.773
of...

00:09:16.174 --> 00:09:17.535
In a lot of, not hardware stores.

00:09:17.576 --> 00:09:17.755
Well,

00:09:17.775 --> 00:09:19.037
they might have them in hardware stores,

00:09:19.057 --> 00:09:19.937
but you can find them in a lot

00:09:19.977 --> 00:09:20.437
of places.

00:09:20.958 --> 00:09:22.179
Anyway, let it sit with that.

00:09:22.500 --> 00:09:23.721
It'll wipe all that stuff out.

00:09:23.740 --> 00:09:24.181
But yeah,

00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:25.942
don't use chlorinated or fluoridated

00:09:25.981 --> 00:09:26.942
water, number one.

00:09:27.543 --> 00:09:28.323
And number two,

00:09:28.583 --> 00:09:30.145
here's another little trick you can do.

00:09:30.905 --> 00:09:32.106
Every time I water that stuff,

00:09:32.126 --> 00:09:33.768
remember I told you I got one pile

00:09:33.807 --> 00:09:34.969
that is off and running.

00:09:35.629 --> 00:09:37.130
I can go ahead and take that,

00:09:37.291 --> 00:09:38.892
fill up a couple of five-gallon buckets

00:09:38.912 --> 00:09:40.432
for the other two piles that aren't quite

00:09:40.472 --> 00:09:40.894
ready yet.

00:09:41.724 --> 00:09:43.125
And I can make an extract.

00:09:43.404 --> 00:09:44.306
I've shown you how to do that.

00:09:44.326 --> 00:09:45.166
We've got videos on it.

00:09:45.686 --> 00:09:47.607
So I'm using a four hundred micron bag,

00:09:48.148 --> 00:09:50.489
stick a handful of compost down in there,

00:09:50.589 --> 00:09:51.509
squeeze it through the bag,

00:09:51.570 --> 00:09:53.250
let all that stuff be in an aqueous,

00:09:53.711 --> 00:09:55.772
take all those microorganisms and I can

00:09:55.792 --> 00:09:57.312
put them in an aqueous form,

00:09:57.833 --> 00:09:59.413
meaning that it's suspended in water.

00:09:59.774 --> 00:10:01.535
And then when I use that water over

00:10:01.596 --> 00:10:04.057
my compost that isn't quite ready yet,

00:10:04.136 --> 00:10:04.538
guess what?

00:10:04.677 --> 00:10:05.518
It's just a matter of time.

00:10:05.538 --> 00:10:06.458
It's going to be squared away.

00:10:07.139 --> 00:10:07.960
So that's one trick.

00:10:08.139 --> 00:10:09.581
And then if you don't have any that's

00:10:09.701 --> 00:10:12.102
already squared away, use soil saviors.

00:10:12.602 --> 00:10:13.043
Good night.

00:10:13.302 --> 00:10:15.764
Absolutely, positively use soil saviors.

00:10:16.365 --> 00:10:17.605
So there's a couple of hacks you can

00:10:17.645 --> 00:10:17.826
do.

00:10:17.966 --> 00:10:19.508
Instead of just using regular water,

00:10:19.548 --> 00:10:20.327
which you can do,

00:10:21.149 --> 00:10:22.549
you can go ahead and fortify it even

00:10:22.629 --> 00:10:23.971
more by using those methods.

00:10:24.510 --> 00:10:26.231
So absolutely, positively.

00:10:26.251 --> 00:10:28.053
All right, here's some other farm news.

00:10:28.073 --> 00:10:29.254
It may not seem like a big deal

00:10:29.274 --> 00:10:29.995
to a lot of y'all,

00:10:30.034 --> 00:10:32.135
but see this water bottle I'm holding?

00:10:32.897 --> 00:10:34.538
Now, for those that can't see it,

00:10:34.557 --> 00:10:35.219
it's glass.

00:10:36.081 --> 00:10:37.884
every time you typically see me drinking

00:10:37.923 --> 00:10:39.765
water it's out of a stainless steel jug

00:10:40.888 --> 00:10:42.068
i know other people are going to say

00:10:42.168 --> 00:10:44.111
no duh but i'm here to tell you

00:10:44.152 --> 00:10:46.254
y'all here's how we process the water we

00:10:46.274 --> 00:10:46.514
drink

00:10:47.303 --> 00:10:48.085
get it from the well.

00:10:48.664 --> 00:10:50.046
Now that well could very well be

00:10:50.086 --> 00:10:51.787
compromised ever since that hurricane.

00:10:51.826 --> 00:10:53.827
That's a whole nother podcast altogether.

00:10:54.528 --> 00:10:56.629
Anyway, take that water and I distill it.

00:10:57.169 --> 00:10:59.211
When it's done distilling, I structure it.

00:10:59.572 --> 00:11:00.793
When I'm done structuring it,

00:11:01.452 --> 00:11:03.114
I hit it with minerals and then I

00:11:03.153 --> 00:11:05.556
magnetize it on the Magnetico sleeping pad

00:11:05.576 --> 00:11:07.557
that I got under our bed.

00:11:07.596 --> 00:11:09.337
So do all that stuff.

00:11:10.038 --> 00:11:11.578
And then I was turning around,

00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:14.061
filling up my stainless steel jug and

00:11:14.976 --> 00:11:16.357
Which, you know, seems all right.

00:11:17.099 --> 00:11:18.500
But taste that water in the stainless

00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:18.860
steel.

00:11:18.921 --> 00:11:20.481
And then I took the same water and

00:11:20.522 --> 00:11:21.302
put it in glass,

00:11:21.342 --> 00:11:22.864
which Michelle has been doing forever in a

00:11:22.923 --> 00:11:23.205
day.

00:11:23.625 --> 00:11:26.248
She's been telling me about it and finally

00:11:26.307 --> 00:11:27.428
decided to take her advice.

00:11:27.448 --> 00:11:28.529
And I'm like, okay,

00:11:29.269 --> 00:11:30.532
this tastes a hundred and eighty degrees

00:11:30.572 --> 00:11:30.912
different.

00:11:31.712 --> 00:11:33.514
This doesn't even taste like the same

00:11:33.553 --> 00:11:33.835
water.

00:11:33.975 --> 00:11:35.255
It tastes perfect.

00:11:36.177 --> 00:11:37.238
Absolutely perfect.

00:11:38.302 --> 00:11:40.403
So that's what I've switched over to right

00:11:40.443 --> 00:11:40.583
now.

00:11:40.644 --> 00:11:41.543
Not saying that I won't,

00:11:41.985 --> 00:11:43.205
there may be times where it just makes

00:11:43.245 --> 00:11:44.365
sense to go ahead and bring that,

00:11:44.404 --> 00:11:46.145
but every possible chance I can,

00:11:46.605 --> 00:11:48.086
I got a mountain Valley spring water,

00:11:48.126 --> 00:11:48.706
which by the way,

00:11:48.726 --> 00:11:49.668
if you ever got to buy some,

00:11:49.727 --> 00:11:51.207
it's probably some of the best stuff out

00:11:51.248 --> 00:11:51.467
there.

00:11:52.048 --> 00:11:53.649
And then of course I drink Grohlsteiner,

00:11:54.109 --> 00:11:55.210
which I was drinking by the way,

00:11:55.230 --> 00:11:57.551
y'all don't do a podcast with a live

00:11:57.610 --> 00:11:59.150
guest while drinking carbonated

00:11:59.230 --> 00:12:01.392
Grohlsteiner, which I did last night.

00:12:02.312 --> 00:12:05.514
Bad idea because I'm having to burp.

00:12:07.023 --> 00:12:07.943
You know,

00:12:07.984 --> 00:12:09.624
good thing I got this cough button here,

00:12:09.663 --> 00:12:09.884
man,

00:12:09.903 --> 00:12:11.565
because it would have been a weird

00:12:11.605 --> 00:12:12.245
podcast.

00:12:12.706 --> 00:12:14.386
I was sounding like Booger out of Revenge

00:12:14.407 --> 00:12:15.866
of the Nerds a couple of times there

00:12:15.886 --> 00:12:17.087
with some of these burps that were coming

00:12:17.148 --> 00:12:17.447
out of me.

00:12:17.927 --> 00:12:19.889
But thank God I got a button where

00:12:19.928 --> 00:12:21.330
I can mute a lot of that stuff.

00:12:22.070 --> 00:12:22.390
So...

00:12:23.461 --> 00:12:24.322
There's a lesson right there.

00:12:24.341 --> 00:12:24.701
But anyway,

00:12:24.741 --> 00:12:26.342
I'm drinking out of glass and you might

00:12:26.383 --> 00:12:27.082
want to consider it.

00:12:27.602 --> 00:12:27.842
All right,

00:12:27.883 --> 00:12:29.264
here's some other things I got going on.

00:12:29.443 --> 00:12:31.403
I can't believe I haven't mentioned this

00:12:31.443 --> 00:12:31.764
before.

00:12:32.424 --> 00:12:33.924
Okay, I got these potatoes out back.

00:12:34.004 --> 00:12:35.085
I know a lot of people have already

00:12:35.125 --> 00:12:35.966
gotten their potatoes.

00:12:36.505 --> 00:12:37.946
Remember, we're at three thousand feet.

00:12:38.145 --> 00:12:38.466
Remember,

00:12:38.485 --> 00:12:40.167
for every thousand feet you go up in

00:12:40.226 --> 00:12:40.706
elevation,

00:12:41.842 --> 00:12:44.385
you essentially gain a zone north or a

00:12:44.426 --> 00:12:45.408
latitude north rather.

00:12:46.168 --> 00:12:46.489
Anyway,

00:12:46.528 --> 00:12:47.850
that's something to consider when you're

00:12:47.890 --> 00:12:49.293
growing in the kind of environments we

00:12:49.352 --> 00:12:49.452
are.

00:12:49.472 --> 00:12:50.815
Well, anyway, my potatoes are ready.

00:12:50.855 --> 00:12:52.297
They've probably been ready for a couple

00:12:52.317 --> 00:12:52.697
of weeks.

00:12:53.457 --> 00:12:54.460
So I'm about to pull them out.

00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:55.740
But here's what I want to really

00:12:55.760 --> 00:12:56.663
communicate right now.

00:12:57.243 --> 00:12:59.202
Remember that clandestine garden idea that

00:12:59.243 --> 00:13:00.303
I talked about a while ago?

00:13:00.884 --> 00:13:01.583
If you don't know about it,

00:13:01.604 --> 00:13:03.104
go back and watch that video where I'm

00:13:03.543 --> 00:13:05.304
growing the microgreens in there with the

00:13:05.345 --> 00:13:05.705
carrots.

00:13:05.764 --> 00:13:08.125
I'm growing the microgreens in there with

00:13:08.164 --> 00:13:08.784
the potatoes.

00:13:09.365 --> 00:13:09.625
Well,

00:13:09.684 --> 00:13:11.245
when the microgreens kind of went back a

00:13:11.265 --> 00:13:11.725
little bit,

00:13:12.186 --> 00:13:14.546
Michelle had a bunch of leftover basil.

00:13:14.885 --> 00:13:16.106
She started them from seeds,

00:13:16.346 --> 00:13:18.326
and she filled up all the space down

00:13:18.346 --> 00:13:19.346
there she possibly could.

00:13:19.427 --> 00:13:19.746
Why?

00:13:20.486 --> 00:13:23.707
Because, folks, I could eat my weight off.

00:13:23.967 --> 00:13:26.850
in the pesto that she makes folks anybody

00:13:26.870 --> 00:13:29.113
that tries it feels like it is earth

00:13:29.312 --> 00:13:32.535
changing world changing universe changing

00:13:32.576 --> 00:13:34.998
if you're if you're me and you got

00:13:35.018 --> 00:13:36.519
to have the fresh basil and it's only

00:13:36.539 --> 00:13:38.561
going to be more therapeutic if you grew

00:13:38.581 --> 00:13:40.602
up where you are so we got tons

00:13:40.643 --> 00:13:42.284
and tons and tons of basil out there

00:13:42.764 --> 00:13:44.687
so much so that i've even freeze-dried a

00:13:44.807 --> 00:13:47.168
lot of it for the winter all right

00:13:47.229 --> 00:13:48.551
so let me get back to the potatoes

00:13:49.664 --> 00:13:50.525
Once some of those,

00:13:51.166 --> 00:13:53.408
the cover crop went back, you know,

00:13:53.428 --> 00:13:53.749
I cut,

00:13:53.889 --> 00:13:56.270
I chopped and dropped a lot of it.

00:13:56.431 --> 00:13:58.653
Adam's family values.

00:13:58.734 --> 00:13:59.794
I'll get to that in a second.

00:13:59.835 --> 00:14:00.014
Yeah.

00:14:01.515 --> 00:14:02.777
And thank you for putting it in capital

00:14:02.817 --> 00:14:03.398
letters, by the way.

00:14:05.255 --> 00:14:05.895
Here's what I did.

00:14:06.235 --> 00:14:07.537
When I cut that stuff back,

00:14:07.677 --> 00:14:09.336
I took those starts that Michelle had of

00:14:09.378 --> 00:14:11.697
basil and I stuck them in the rows

00:14:11.738 --> 00:14:13.619
in between all of the garlic out there.

00:14:13.639 --> 00:14:13.839
Folks,

00:14:13.859 --> 00:14:15.720
I got basil coming out of my eyeballs

00:14:15.799 --> 00:14:16.120
out there.

00:14:16.820 --> 00:14:18.461
But this is exactly what I'm talking

00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:19.081
about, folks.

00:14:19.561 --> 00:14:21.241
I don't know why anybody else hasn't done

00:14:21.261 --> 00:14:21.841
this before,

00:14:22.282 --> 00:14:23.702
where you're growing the interstitial

00:14:23.743 --> 00:14:25.342
spots with things that are not going to

00:14:25.503 --> 00:14:27.724
interfere with the things you got growing

00:14:27.764 --> 00:14:28.323
in the other place.

00:14:28.484 --> 00:14:29.625
Why can't you do this?

00:14:30.245 --> 00:14:31.765
Like Eric Sider was talking about,

00:14:32.405 --> 00:14:33.366
Eric saw what I did.

00:14:33.466 --> 00:14:34.768
He did it in his worm bin.

00:14:35.288 --> 00:14:36.828
Everybody needs to check out that video.

00:14:37.450 --> 00:14:38.750
And then Eric's also saying,

00:14:38.791 --> 00:14:40.511
why couldn't you do this nonstop?

00:14:41.011 --> 00:14:42.673
Because the microgreens, number one,

00:14:42.793 --> 00:14:43.553
even in,

00:14:43.854 --> 00:14:44.833
I know I talk about this all the

00:14:44.854 --> 00:14:45.815
time, but we got new people.

00:14:45.835 --> 00:14:46.775
So I'm going to talk about this.

00:14:47.355 --> 00:14:49.116
Even if you're growing microgreens in that

00:14:49.356 --> 00:14:50.118
neutral medium,

00:14:51.186 --> 00:14:53.006
they're still powerful in terms of what

00:14:53.027 --> 00:14:53.986
they bring to the table.

00:14:54.508 --> 00:14:56.369
But imagine how powerful they are when

00:14:56.389 --> 00:14:58.208
you're using them in between the rows of

00:14:58.250 --> 00:14:59.230
everything you grow out there.

00:14:59.669 --> 00:15:01.591
So instead of buying salad in the store,

00:15:02.051 --> 00:15:03.932
buy a crap load of micro green seeds,

00:15:03.951 --> 00:15:05.452
which is probably a couple of visits

00:15:05.493 --> 00:15:06.793
buying salad at the store.

00:15:07.413 --> 00:15:08.475
You're getting stuff that is

00:15:09.455 --> 00:15:09.695
I mean,

00:15:09.815 --> 00:15:12.296
nutrient rich on a level that I can't

00:15:12.316 --> 00:15:13.416
even begin to describe.

00:15:14.096 --> 00:15:14.936
So anyway, do that.

00:15:15.616 --> 00:15:16.836
But back to the basil.

00:15:16.876 --> 00:15:18.136
Sorry, I keep getting sidetracked.

00:15:18.576 --> 00:15:19.697
So I put the basil out there.

00:15:19.758 --> 00:15:21.378
Didn't really know for sure what would

00:15:21.398 --> 00:15:22.177
happen, but folks,

00:15:22.697 --> 00:15:24.119
it's time to take it all up right

00:15:24.178 --> 00:15:24.418
now.

00:15:24.938 --> 00:15:27.198
So in this harvest of potatoes,

00:15:27.219 --> 00:15:28.960
and I'm hopefully going to shoot that

00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:29.379
video...

00:15:30.432 --> 00:15:31.913
Ain't going to be tomorrow because we're

00:15:31.932 --> 00:15:32.312
going to go.

00:15:32.793 --> 00:15:32.933
Yeah,

00:15:32.953 --> 00:15:34.153
we got some things that we got to

00:15:34.173 --> 00:15:34.793
do around here.

00:15:35.514 --> 00:15:36.394
But I'm thinking on Sunday,

00:15:36.413 --> 00:15:38.054
I'll probably get that video done talking

00:15:38.075 --> 00:15:39.615
about the harvest that we're going to do

00:15:40.154 --> 00:15:41.174
where we're getting the potatoes out of

00:15:41.195 --> 00:15:42.875
the ground and the basil at the same

00:15:42.916 --> 00:15:43.115
time.

00:15:43.535 --> 00:15:43.816
Okay.

00:15:44.735 --> 00:15:45.416
At the same time,

00:15:45.535 --> 00:15:46.456
why couldn't you have done?

00:15:46.515 --> 00:15:48.277
Why couldn't I have done dill out there?

00:15:48.897 --> 00:15:51.037
I actually did in other beds.

00:15:51.057 --> 00:15:51.837
I could have done dill.

00:15:52.357 --> 00:15:53.937
What goes better with potatoes than dill?

00:15:54.692 --> 00:15:56.374
I mean, pull that up, make so much,

00:15:56.394 --> 00:15:57.554
you know, get so much of it.

00:15:58.355 --> 00:15:59.956
One is not interfering with the other.

00:16:00.115 --> 00:16:01.537
I could have put a ton of dill

00:16:01.576 --> 00:16:01.878
out there.

00:16:01.998 --> 00:16:02.638
I've just done a,

00:16:03.118 --> 00:16:04.219
I did a handful of it because I

00:16:04.239 --> 00:16:04.960
grew up from seed.

00:16:05.827 --> 00:16:06.928
And it was more of an experiment,

00:16:06.948 --> 00:16:08.249
but I wish now that I'd done more

00:16:08.269 --> 00:16:09.330
because I got dill out there.

00:16:09.889 --> 00:16:11.750
I got basil out there.

00:16:12.571 --> 00:16:15.212
And there's so many different ways you can

00:16:15.232 --> 00:16:16.052
go about it, folks.

00:16:16.072 --> 00:16:18.394
But look, to my knowledge,

00:16:18.494 --> 00:16:20.075
I haven't seen anybody doing this type of

00:16:20.115 --> 00:16:20.294
stuff.

00:16:20.335 --> 00:16:21.475
I'm sure somebody has.

00:16:21.495 --> 00:16:22.696
I'm not the first to come up with

00:16:22.735 --> 00:16:22.816
it.

00:16:23.297 --> 00:16:24.976
I just haven't ever seen any videos on

00:16:25.116 --> 00:16:26.057
anybody doing this.

00:16:26.878 --> 00:16:27.698
And why can't you?

00:16:28.519 --> 00:16:29.639
So you could be sitting here growing

00:16:29.679 --> 00:16:31.120
microgreens all through the growing

00:16:31.160 --> 00:16:32.643
season, not just in the cold months,

00:16:33.302 --> 00:16:35.164
and not using up electricity in your

00:16:35.225 --> 00:16:36.947
house, which, by the way,

00:16:37.667 --> 00:16:38.668
if they're outside,

00:16:39.448 --> 00:16:41.169
they're getting a full spectrum of

00:16:41.270 --> 00:16:41.711
sunlight.

00:16:42.652 --> 00:16:43.653
That means everything.

00:16:43.712 --> 00:16:45.033
I know you can grow microgreens on a

00:16:45.053 --> 00:16:46.634
grow light in your bedroom, but why?

00:16:47.216 --> 00:16:47.816
Why do that?

00:16:48.336 --> 00:16:49.758
I can see where some people might be

00:16:49.837 --> 00:16:51.058
tempted to do it in the winter.

00:16:51.639 --> 00:16:52.561
Okay, but it ain't winter.

00:16:53.359 --> 00:16:54.538
Why not do it outside?

00:16:55.119 --> 00:16:55.719
Grow that stuff.

00:16:55.759 --> 00:16:56.840
Go out there with a pair of scissors.

00:16:57.440 --> 00:16:59.279
Go look at what microgreens cost and look

00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:01.539
what the seeds are, you know,

00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:02.240
what they cost you.

00:17:03.280 --> 00:17:05.980
You can be growing this stuff and saving

00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:08.201
yourself a pile of money and getting

00:17:08.221 --> 00:17:09.781
yourself all kinds of nutrition out there.

00:17:10.362 --> 00:17:11.721
So don't want to beat that dead horse

00:17:11.761 --> 00:17:12.082
anymore.

00:17:12.102 --> 00:17:13.742
But yeah, that is a good,

00:17:13.803 --> 00:17:15.462
good method that I've come up with and

00:17:15.482 --> 00:17:16.903
it's working like nobody's business.

00:17:17.563 --> 00:17:20.124
Okay, thoughts on uranium glass.

00:17:21.003 --> 00:17:21.304
You know,

00:17:22.381 --> 00:17:23.942
I know Matt from Cultivate Elevate.

00:17:24.082 --> 00:17:24.882
He's a buddy of mine.

00:17:25.582 --> 00:17:26.061
And in fact,

00:17:26.122 --> 00:17:27.442
I sent him some honey and some bee

00:17:27.482 --> 00:17:29.022
pollen out there for him to take it

00:17:29.042 --> 00:17:29.763
for a test drive.

00:17:30.344 --> 00:17:31.384
He's a big believer of it.

00:17:32.065 --> 00:17:33.005
And honestly,

00:17:33.325 --> 00:17:35.405
I had on Hakeem from Above Phone.

00:17:36.006 --> 00:17:37.105
And when we were off air,

00:17:37.145 --> 00:17:38.906
he was showing me his version of it.

00:17:39.507 --> 00:17:41.448
They were selling this stuff all over the

00:17:41.488 --> 00:17:42.928
place years and years ago.

00:17:42.948 --> 00:17:43.608
I don't know,

00:17:43.628 --> 00:17:45.409
maybe at eighty to one hundred years ago,

00:17:45.709 --> 00:17:46.789
everybody had these things.

00:17:47.882 --> 00:17:50.625
I haven't personally looked into them to

00:17:50.724 --> 00:17:52.066
any kind of great detail,

00:17:52.665 --> 00:17:54.768
but Matt's information is usually spot on

00:17:54.807 --> 00:17:55.888
in so many different ways.

00:17:56.930 --> 00:17:58.651
I would definitely love to examine it.

00:17:59.352 --> 00:18:00.173
I'm going to need a little more

00:18:00.232 --> 00:18:00.913
confirmation.

00:18:01.074 --> 00:18:02.535
I'm going to have to go look into

00:18:02.555 --> 00:18:03.315
it for myself.

00:18:03.935 --> 00:18:05.057
But really,

00:18:07.098 --> 00:18:08.400
I haven't done anything in that regard.

00:18:09.949 --> 00:18:10.128
Yeah,

00:18:10.348 --> 00:18:11.931
let me know if you know anything because

00:18:12.050 --> 00:18:12.730
I would like to know.

00:18:13.231 --> 00:18:14.553
Homestead twins in the house.

00:18:14.633 --> 00:18:16.034
Man, think about you guys.

00:18:16.213 --> 00:18:17.915
Every single time we go to the farmer's

00:18:17.955 --> 00:18:20.178
market and Michelle has that bag that you

00:18:20.218 --> 00:18:20.678
made for her.

00:18:20.698 --> 00:18:22.019
I meant to tell you guys that weeks

00:18:22.058 --> 00:18:22.338
ago.

00:18:23.119 --> 00:18:24.840
That is by far, I mean,

00:18:25.061 --> 00:18:26.061
women carry purses.

00:18:26.702 --> 00:18:28.183
She's carrying the bag you guys made.

00:18:28.243 --> 00:18:29.444
That is the coolest.

00:18:30.185 --> 00:18:30.365
I mean,

00:18:30.385 --> 00:18:33.749
that thing is the best flipping bag ever.

00:18:33.808 --> 00:18:35.109
I know she's wishing she was in here

00:18:35.190 --> 00:18:35.670
right now.

00:18:36.550 --> 00:18:38.892
um yeah that is some good stuff right

00:18:38.932 --> 00:18:42.492
there no diarrhea salad okay yeah i

00:18:42.553 --> 00:18:44.493
definitely wouldn't want to eat that um i

00:18:45.153 --> 00:18:47.375
don't know what uh mountainside with ken

00:18:47.434 --> 00:18:49.675
and amy are talking about there but yeah

00:18:49.715 --> 00:18:51.636
apparently diarrhea salad is on some

00:18:51.676 --> 00:18:53.778
people's menu it ain't on mine i'm not

00:18:53.837 --> 00:18:55.337
quite sure what they're talking about but

00:18:55.377 --> 00:18:57.138
maybe they'll they'll tighten it up there

00:18:57.659 --> 00:18:58.700
all right so um

00:18:59.651 --> 00:19:00.790
Got all the blueberries down there.

00:19:00.911 --> 00:19:01.612
Okay, cool.

00:19:02.112 --> 00:19:03.692
So our blueberries down in the food forest

00:19:03.711 --> 00:19:04.512
and in the orchard,

00:19:05.373 --> 00:19:06.733
probably three and four years old.

00:19:07.653 --> 00:19:08.273
Man,

00:19:08.314 --> 00:19:11.855
they have produced abundantly this year.

00:19:12.075 --> 00:19:13.675
I mean, absolutely abundantly.

00:19:14.336 --> 00:19:15.176
And I'll tell you another thing.

00:19:15.196 --> 00:19:16.457
I know a lot of people complain about,

00:19:16.497 --> 00:19:16.737
you know,

00:19:16.797 --> 00:19:18.298
birds and stuff getting their blueberries.

00:19:18.897 --> 00:19:19.038
Well,

00:19:19.057 --> 00:19:20.657
we've used a lot of our blueberries as

00:19:20.718 --> 00:19:21.838
something of an understory,

00:19:21.878 --> 00:19:23.638
which isn't really recommended in most

00:19:23.679 --> 00:19:24.000
places.

00:19:24.059 --> 00:19:26.500
Blueberries typically light open sun and

00:19:26.519 --> 00:19:27.560
it was a complete accident.

00:19:28.060 --> 00:19:30.744
So all the blueberries that were treated

00:19:30.984 --> 00:19:35.671
as more of an understory and were covered

00:19:35.711 --> 00:19:37.032
by, let's say, a nitrogen fixer,

00:19:37.614 --> 00:19:38.193
they did great.

00:19:38.979 --> 00:19:40.160
All the other ones that were in the

00:19:40.220 --> 00:19:41.381
open, they still did great.

00:19:41.941 --> 00:19:43.541
But I think there's so much out there

00:19:43.561 --> 00:19:45.143
in this food forest that the birds that

00:19:45.163 --> 00:19:46.984
would ordinarily mess with them, you know,

00:19:47.025 --> 00:19:48.046
we save a little bit back,

00:19:48.086 --> 00:19:49.086
ten percent for nature.

00:19:49.185 --> 00:19:51.228
But yeah,

00:19:51.448 --> 00:19:54.690
we we absolutely had a great blueberry

00:19:54.710 --> 00:19:57.132
harvest, but I don't think it's enough.

00:19:57.152 --> 00:19:58.353
So we're probably going to have to go

00:19:58.432 --> 00:19:59.173
out there to.

00:20:00.233 --> 00:20:02.575
Um, our blueberry farm lady out there,

00:20:02.634 --> 00:20:04.236
Janet at cloud nine farms.

00:20:05.096 --> 00:20:07.317
And, uh, she's absolutely fantastic.

00:20:07.538 --> 00:20:09.338
Maybe pick up some other things that she

00:20:09.378 --> 00:20:11.420
may have out there, but yeah, Janet,

00:20:11.819 --> 00:20:13.240
we'll go out there, you know,

00:20:13.260 --> 00:20:14.000
at some point in time,

00:20:14.040 --> 00:20:16.041
go pick some blueberries and that'll fill

00:20:16.082 --> 00:20:16.182
up.

00:20:16.542 --> 00:20:17.222
That's the cool thing.

00:20:17.242 --> 00:20:17.423
Y'all,

00:20:17.442 --> 00:20:18.683
when you know a lot of other farmers

00:20:18.763 --> 00:20:19.144
out there,

00:20:19.864 --> 00:20:20.904
maybe you didn't get enough of a PR

00:20:21.184 --> 00:20:22.205
of a particular thing.

00:20:22.425 --> 00:20:22.665
Well,

00:20:23.375 --> 00:20:24.656
We're still eating the blueberries that we

00:20:24.676 --> 00:20:25.636
got from her last year.

00:20:25.656 --> 00:20:26.836
So I don't know that we have to,

00:20:26.896 --> 00:20:29.157
but man, it's just a wonderful,

00:20:29.178 --> 00:20:29.739
wonderful time.

00:20:29.818 --> 00:20:31.298
Also got all the peaches out there.

00:20:32.259 --> 00:20:34.119
We had a little bit of a problem

00:20:34.180 --> 00:20:35.461
on some of these peaches that have never

00:20:35.500 --> 00:20:36.161
produced before.

00:20:36.401 --> 00:20:37.261
Let me tell you what I did.

00:20:37.281 --> 00:20:38.261
Well,

00:20:38.281 --> 00:20:39.282
let me tell you what I didn't do.

00:20:40.163 --> 00:20:43.564
So we had a fair amount of coddling

00:20:43.604 --> 00:20:44.585
moth problem down there.

00:20:45.424 --> 00:20:46.926
Remember, it's not the tree.

00:20:46.946 --> 00:20:47.928
It's not the genetics.

00:20:48.088 --> 00:20:48.869
It's your soil.

00:20:49.550 --> 00:20:51.653
So I have been a little bit lax

00:20:51.692 --> 00:20:53.174
in these areas by the driveway.

00:20:53.836 --> 00:20:55.157
So all the ones that had, you know,

00:20:55.218 --> 00:20:56.859
marginal soil out there, guess what?

00:20:56.920 --> 00:20:58.241
I got fruit that got screwed with.

00:20:58.931 --> 00:21:00.553
Now, I could have done a whole lot,

00:21:01.313 --> 00:21:03.295
a whole lot with some of the fungal

00:21:03.335 --> 00:21:05.597
issues that were out there if I would

00:21:05.617 --> 00:21:06.919
have gotten ahead of things and took some

00:21:06.939 --> 00:21:07.740
of that raw milk.

00:21:07.779 --> 00:21:09.020
I've just been so darn busy.

00:21:09.040 --> 00:21:09.561
I didn't do it.

00:21:10.142 --> 00:21:11.564
If I took raw milk like I did

00:21:11.604 --> 00:21:12.984
on that peach tree that gave me four

00:21:13.244 --> 00:21:16.008
pounds last year and I mix it,

00:21:16.048 --> 00:21:16.949
take the cream off.

00:21:17.189 --> 00:21:18.269
You want to make ice cream out of

00:21:18.309 --> 00:21:18.510
that.

00:21:18.671 --> 00:21:18.990
OK,

00:21:19.491 --> 00:21:20.512
you don't want to put it through your

00:21:20.532 --> 00:21:21.874
pump spray, but take that raw milk.

00:21:22.603 --> 00:21:24.584
Mix it fifty-fifty with purified water.

00:21:24.604 --> 00:21:26.304
Remember, no junk in it.

00:21:27.023 --> 00:21:28.463
Distilled water for the most part.

00:21:29.224 --> 00:21:30.325
Mix that fifty-fifty.

00:21:30.825 --> 00:21:32.125
Put it in your pump sprayer and go

00:21:32.184 --> 00:21:33.945
out there and spray everything.

00:21:33.986 --> 00:21:34.885
Spray all the leaves.

00:21:34.905 --> 00:21:36.786
Spray all the fruit as it's coming up.

00:21:37.146 --> 00:21:38.227
You want to do it on a full

00:21:38.307 --> 00:21:38.987
sun day.

00:21:39.446 --> 00:21:39.646
Okay?

00:21:39.666 --> 00:21:40.826
You don't want that stuff sitting there.

00:21:40.846 --> 00:21:41.768
So you want to make sure it's really

00:21:41.827 --> 00:21:42.147
sunny.

00:21:42.627 --> 00:21:43.968
Spray every side of that leaf.

00:21:43.988 --> 00:21:44.907
Spray everything you can.

00:21:44.948 --> 00:21:46.108
And all your fungal issues,

00:21:46.648 --> 00:21:48.429
bacterial issues even, will go away.

00:21:48.469 --> 00:21:49.890
That's a trick I learned from my man,

00:21:49.930 --> 00:21:51.089
Stefan Subkoviak.

00:21:51.788 --> 00:21:52.209
you know, Mr.

00:21:52.249 --> 00:21:53.849
Permaculture Orchard himself.

00:21:54.390 --> 00:21:56.070
So that's one of the cool things that

00:21:56.111 --> 00:21:56.871
I've gotten from him.

00:21:57.050 --> 00:21:57.810
Had I done that,

00:21:58.010 --> 00:22:00.132
I would have had a much, much better,

00:22:00.791 --> 00:22:02.292
maybe a bumper crop, honestly.

00:22:02.772 --> 00:22:03.554
But I didn't do it.

00:22:03.874 --> 00:22:05.973
And we got some peaches off these trees,

00:22:06.174 --> 00:22:06.855
just not...

00:22:07.943 --> 00:22:09.364
Not as many as I would have preferred.

00:22:09.384 --> 00:22:10.224
And so I was, you know,

00:22:10.244 --> 00:22:11.404
that's one of those areas where I kicked

00:22:11.444 --> 00:22:11.865
myself.

00:22:12.424 --> 00:22:15.006
Now I'll get to the point ultimately where

00:22:15.046 --> 00:22:17.246
I build the soil up around there that

00:22:17.266 --> 00:22:19.567
my tree has everything it needs.

00:22:20.086 --> 00:22:21.247
So how will I do that?

00:22:21.727 --> 00:22:22.686
Put down a new mulch ring.

00:22:22.727 --> 00:22:23.386
I'll put down card.

00:22:23.527 --> 00:22:25.567
Well, I'll put down my compost,

00:22:26.008 --> 00:22:27.708
put down the cardboard and cover it up

00:22:27.728 --> 00:22:29.128
with about a foot of mulch.

00:22:29.628 --> 00:22:29.868
Okay.

00:22:30.628 --> 00:22:31.589
And if your soil is alive,

00:22:31.630 --> 00:22:32.609
it won't be there forever.

00:22:32.650 --> 00:22:33.611
So you got to do that a couple

00:22:33.631 --> 00:22:33.951
of times.

00:22:33.971 --> 00:22:34.432
But like I said,

00:22:34.471 --> 00:22:35.751
we've been going at a hundred miles an

00:22:35.791 --> 00:22:36.053
hour.

00:22:36.853 --> 00:22:37.933
So that's one thing.

00:22:38.134 --> 00:22:39.595
That's another little trick we can drop

00:22:39.634 --> 00:22:40.275
right in here.

00:22:41.135 --> 00:22:41.375
All right.

00:22:41.415 --> 00:22:42.277
And so finally,

00:22:42.596 --> 00:22:43.817
a little bit off the beaten path,

00:22:43.837 --> 00:22:45.259
I try to finish up my little segment

00:22:45.298 --> 00:22:47.400
here with something that might be,

00:22:48.401 --> 00:22:48.780
I don't know,

00:22:48.840 --> 00:22:49.981
something you might want to be concerned

00:22:50.001 --> 00:22:51.222
about and you should.

00:22:52.067 --> 00:22:53.188
I know a lot of people aren't talking

00:22:53.228 --> 00:22:53.448
about it,

00:22:53.468 --> 00:22:55.249
but the geopolitical stuff over there,

00:22:55.269 --> 00:22:56.750
particularly in the Middle East,

00:22:57.630 --> 00:23:00.250
is blowing up again in a big, big,

00:23:00.310 --> 00:23:02.392
big way, in a much bigger way.

00:23:02.892 --> 00:23:03.491
I mean, good night.

00:23:03.511 --> 00:23:05.932
We have musings from the administration

00:23:05.952 --> 00:23:07.732
talking about using tactical nukes over

00:23:07.752 --> 00:23:07.913
there.

00:23:07.952 --> 00:23:08.794
Are you kidding me?

00:23:10.173 --> 00:23:11.934
Imagine a Pandora's box that's going to

00:23:12.055 --> 00:23:13.255
open.

00:23:13.275 --> 00:23:13.474
Folks,

00:23:13.494 --> 00:23:15.415
I'm not saying this to be freaking you

00:23:15.496 --> 00:23:15.655
out.

00:23:15.836 --> 00:23:17.257
I'm just telling you because a lot of

00:23:17.277 --> 00:23:18.176
you may not know it.

00:23:19.142 --> 00:23:20.063
And also,

00:23:20.702 --> 00:23:21.702
if you want to keep up on it,

00:23:21.742 --> 00:23:22.763
here's what I've done.

00:23:22.804 --> 00:23:24.023
Here's a little hack I do where I

00:23:24.044 --> 00:23:25.005
can stay informed,

00:23:25.984 --> 00:23:27.205
but not be consumed by it.

00:23:28.086 --> 00:23:29.586
So I'm really careful about what I'm

00:23:29.626 --> 00:23:30.847
putting in my head these days.

00:23:31.586 --> 00:23:33.288
And the Bible talks an awful lot about

00:23:33.327 --> 00:23:33.989
that sort of thing.

00:23:34.028 --> 00:23:35.609
So I'm trying to be as cautious and

00:23:35.650 --> 00:23:36.490
careful as I can.

00:23:37.010 --> 00:23:37.872
But I do this show.

00:23:37.991 --> 00:23:39.532
And also, you know what?

00:23:39.613 --> 00:23:41.054
If I'm going to be a sheepdog,

00:23:41.094 --> 00:23:43.236
I want to know what my flock may

00:23:43.276 --> 00:23:44.016
be up against.

00:23:44.636 --> 00:23:47.019
So I got to have one foot in

00:23:47.058 --> 00:23:48.740
there, but I don't stay consumed by it.

00:23:49.039 --> 00:23:50.842
Certainly not.

00:23:50.942 --> 00:23:52.163
If I'm not really, really careful,

00:23:52.323 --> 00:23:52.863
I can be.

00:23:53.343 --> 00:23:55.144
So I make sure I titrate the amount

00:23:55.164 --> 00:23:56.385
of bad information I get.

00:23:56.865 --> 00:23:57.826
And I've talked about it before.

00:24:00.017 --> 00:24:01.417
I've talked about it before that one of

00:24:01.438 --> 00:24:03.519
the best ways in doing that is that

00:24:03.559 --> 00:24:05.500
for every, let's say one hour podcast,

00:24:05.560 --> 00:24:07.281
which I'm listening to it on double speed,

00:24:07.742 --> 00:24:09.443
try to try to overlay that with the

00:24:09.544 --> 00:24:12.086
audio Bible or like I've done where I've

00:24:12.105 --> 00:24:14.387
taken the audio Bible and I overlaid it.

00:24:14.448 --> 00:24:15.347
I had to do it myself.

00:24:16.128 --> 00:24:17.430
I still want to find a way to

00:24:17.470 --> 00:24:19.070
do this and be able to get it

00:24:19.131 --> 00:24:20.811
out to other people where I've overlaid it

00:24:20.832 --> 00:24:21.952
with self edgy tones.

00:24:22.933 --> 00:24:23.054
Um,

00:24:24.357 --> 00:24:25.740
It is one of the most soothing things,

00:24:25.779 --> 00:24:25.980
folks.

00:24:26.019 --> 00:24:27.000
You have anxiety issues.

00:24:27.040 --> 00:24:28.422
You have any kind of issues out there.

00:24:29.002 --> 00:24:30.243
That's one of the things I do.

00:24:30.364 --> 00:24:31.885
And I did it actually today.

00:24:32.507 --> 00:24:34.429
I'm starting to feel my temperature rise a

00:24:34.489 --> 00:24:34.888
little bit.

00:24:34.929 --> 00:24:35.569
And I said, okay,

00:24:36.090 --> 00:24:38.133
let me lay on this pulse electric magnetic

00:24:38.173 --> 00:24:38.813
field mat.

00:24:40.414 --> 00:24:41.556
I would lay out in the grass,

00:24:41.576 --> 00:24:43.717
but Michelle just cut it out front with

00:24:43.737 --> 00:24:44.238
a weed eater,

00:24:44.258 --> 00:24:45.137
so I didn't want to be covered in

00:24:45.179 --> 00:24:45.578
grass.

00:24:46.118 --> 00:24:47.240
So I laid up on this mat,

00:24:48.060 --> 00:24:49.942
and it's where I do some of my

00:24:50.021 --> 00:24:51.163
memorization sometimes,

00:24:51.222 --> 00:24:52.523
but also it's where I got the audio

00:24:52.564 --> 00:24:55.686
Bible overlaid with Self-Edgeo Tones.

00:24:56.106 --> 00:24:57.607
And I wish I could tell you the

00:24:57.627 --> 00:24:58.328
name of the website.

00:24:58.368 --> 00:24:59.009
Whole Tones.

00:24:59.730 --> 00:25:00.550
W-H-O-L-E.

00:25:00.611 --> 00:25:02.031
Whole Tones is where you can find this

00:25:02.051 --> 00:25:02.352
stuff.

00:25:03.452 --> 00:25:04.413
Done in...

00:25:05.577 --> 00:25:07.159
The kind of frequencies like four thirty

00:25:07.199 --> 00:25:07.298
two,

00:25:07.318 --> 00:25:08.679
it's a bunch of different frequencies they

00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:08.878
use,

00:25:08.898 --> 00:25:10.420
but they're all within the self-edged

00:25:10.460 --> 00:25:10.960
frequencies.

00:25:11.460 --> 00:25:13.340
So I've overlaid that with the audio Bible

00:25:13.381 --> 00:25:14.641
read by Max McLean.

00:25:15.320 --> 00:25:16.842
And that's what I do to kind of

00:25:16.902 --> 00:25:18.281
I mean, I guess, well,

00:25:18.301 --> 00:25:19.803
I sure hope I King Saul.

00:25:20.282 --> 00:25:20.903
But honestly,

00:25:20.942 --> 00:25:22.344
it has that same effect on me,

00:25:22.443 --> 00:25:23.443
I suppose, that, you know,

00:25:23.903 --> 00:25:25.765
King David had when he was playing for

00:25:25.805 --> 00:25:26.065
Saul.

00:25:26.085 --> 00:25:26.565
But anyway,

00:25:27.085 --> 00:25:28.244
that's a little hack you can do out

00:25:28.285 --> 00:25:28.465
there.

00:25:30.086 --> 00:25:31.047
One of the little things I got to

00:25:31.067 --> 00:25:32.567
do is figure out how to do all

00:25:32.607 --> 00:25:33.728
of the Old Testament that way.

00:25:34.228 --> 00:25:34.969
Not the Old Testament,

00:25:34.989 --> 00:25:35.709
but the Book of Psalm.

00:25:36.250 --> 00:25:37.529
That's where I have it going right now.

00:25:38.131 --> 00:25:39.211
Anyway, if you want to stay,

00:25:39.270 --> 00:25:40.031
if you want to use one of the

00:25:40.071 --> 00:25:42.093
hacks I do, I go to X, okay?

00:25:42.792 --> 00:25:44.433
And I only check out really three people

00:25:44.453 --> 00:25:45.954
when it comes to geopolitical stuff.

00:25:46.375 --> 00:25:48.916
And that's Matt Bracken, former Navy SEAL,

00:25:50.018 --> 00:25:54.779
Michael Yan, former Green Beret, and then,

00:25:54.799 --> 00:25:59.242
of course, Colonel Douglas McGregor.

00:26:00.070 --> 00:26:01.271
If you just check out three of those

00:26:01.311 --> 00:26:02.571
guys and just look at their daily posts,

00:26:02.592 --> 00:26:03.992
you'll get a real feel for the bottom

00:26:04.032 --> 00:26:04.913
as to what's happening.

00:26:05.613 --> 00:26:06.054
So anyway,

00:26:06.114 --> 00:26:07.354
I couldn't recommend that enough.

00:26:07.453 --> 00:26:09.015
And that's about where I leave it.

00:26:09.535 --> 00:26:10.715
I listen to a podcast.

00:26:10.796 --> 00:26:12.076
And if they start talking about things

00:26:12.096 --> 00:26:13.696
that I already know, I zip past it.

00:26:13.737 --> 00:26:14.938
I go to the things that are relevant

00:26:14.958 --> 00:26:15.278
to me.

00:26:15.938 --> 00:26:17.558
So that's exactly how I'm trying to

00:26:17.739 --> 00:26:20.299
maintain my sanity in this world.

00:26:20.920 --> 00:26:21.800
All right.

00:26:21.861 --> 00:26:23.040
So let me tell you what's going on

00:26:23.080 --> 00:26:23.681
this weekend.

00:26:23.740 --> 00:26:25.882
KSL, Kentucky Sustainable Living.

00:26:26.643 --> 00:26:27.863
They got their festival this weekend.

00:26:27.883 --> 00:26:29.044
That's going to be in Bowling Green,

00:26:29.064 --> 00:26:29.604
Kentucky.

00:26:30.556 --> 00:26:31.836
And anybody there,

00:26:31.876 --> 00:26:32.977
William's going to be teaching there,

00:26:33.017 --> 00:26:34.116
so you might want to go check that

00:26:34.237 --> 00:26:34.376
out.

00:26:34.998 --> 00:26:36.538
My man Darren from Hacks for the

00:26:36.597 --> 00:26:37.898
Homestead, he's going to be there.

00:26:38.398 --> 00:26:39.378
Going to be a lot of other people

00:26:39.398 --> 00:26:39.818
there, folks.

00:26:40.400 --> 00:26:42.180
I know for some weird reason,

00:26:42.279 --> 00:26:43.721
a lot of people are not going to

00:26:43.740 --> 00:26:46.122
these homestead festivals when you really

00:26:46.182 --> 00:26:46.602
ought to be.

00:26:47.301 --> 00:26:49.282
I don't understand that.

00:26:50.191 --> 00:26:51.853
And don't understand why anybody wouldn't

00:26:51.893 --> 00:26:53.273
be going to these if you're in any

00:26:53.294 --> 00:26:54.234
kind of close proximity.

00:26:54.755 --> 00:26:55.135
Number one,

00:26:55.155 --> 00:26:56.457
you'll go there and find out that you've

00:26:56.477 --> 00:26:58.838
got a mutual assistance group that is in

00:26:58.878 --> 00:27:00.020
close proximity to you.

00:27:00.941 --> 00:27:02.363
And you're going to find out that it

00:27:02.383 --> 00:27:03.844
just feels good being in a room with

00:27:03.884 --> 00:27:04.365
other people.

00:27:05.310 --> 00:27:06.932
Other people you can relate to, you know,

00:27:06.952 --> 00:27:08.054
because a lot of other people out there

00:27:08.074 --> 00:27:09.455
think people like us are weirdos.

00:27:09.957 --> 00:27:10.297
So anyway,

00:27:10.336 --> 00:27:11.999
that's going to be this weekend and it's

00:27:12.038 --> 00:27:13.319
going to be an air conditioned venue.

00:27:13.359 --> 00:27:14.721
So you might even check it out for

00:27:14.741 --> 00:27:15.041
that.

00:27:15.082 --> 00:27:16.104
All right.

00:27:16.223 --> 00:27:17.265
Also, the following weekend,

00:27:17.305 --> 00:27:19.067
July twenty four through the twenty six

00:27:19.507 --> 00:27:21.269
mountain readiness is going to be in Swan

00:27:21.328 --> 00:27:22.351
Lake, Montana.

00:27:23.200 --> 00:27:24.721
I'd go up there for no other reason.

00:27:24.760 --> 00:27:26.061
If I could get away, y'all, believe me,

00:27:26.082 --> 00:27:27.542
I'd be on the first thing smoking out

00:27:27.583 --> 00:27:27.722
there.

00:27:27.803 --> 00:27:29.384
I still haven't seen that country.

00:27:30.005 --> 00:27:30.965
Man, I want to see it so bad.

00:27:30.986 --> 00:27:32.365
And you're going to be close to the

00:27:32.646 --> 00:27:33.827
Glacier National Park,

00:27:34.428 --> 00:27:35.749
all these other things up there that I

00:27:35.788 --> 00:27:36.829
really want to go check out.

00:27:37.049 --> 00:27:37.970
Man, I wish I could be there.

00:27:37.990 --> 00:27:39.131
But anyway, if you can,

00:27:39.892 --> 00:27:42.834
it's going to be at Swan Lake, Montana.

00:27:42.933 --> 00:27:44.194
Go check out Mountain Readiness.

00:27:44.755 --> 00:27:47.096
Also, EMF Rocks.

00:27:47.636 --> 00:27:49.137
I got one of those bags right here

00:27:49.157 --> 00:27:50.038
on the grounding pad.

00:27:50.838 --> 00:27:52.038
that my feet are on right now.

00:27:52.098 --> 00:27:53.140
If I'm going to be in here around

00:27:53.180 --> 00:27:54.099
all this EMF, y'all,

00:27:54.140 --> 00:27:55.800
I'm G'd up from the feet up.

00:27:55.840 --> 00:27:57.101
You know what time I'm talking about.

00:27:57.641 --> 00:27:59.422
EMF rocks, ten percent off with that.

00:27:59.862 --> 00:28:00.801
And then Redemption Shield,

00:28:00.821 --> 00:28:02.143
where I get my grounding mats and stuff

00:28:02.163 --> 00:28:02.563
like that,

00:28:02.982 --> 00:28:05.324
you get ten percent off with promo code

00:28:05.384 --> 00:28:06.824
PERMA on both of those.

00:28:07.463 --> 00:28:08.704
And like I said, I use them together.

00:28:09.365 --> 00:28:11.526
I got that mat going out of this

00:28:11.566 --> 00:28:12.986
window, which y'all can't see.

00:28:13.405 --> 00:28:15.007
It's going out this window out to its

00:28:15.047 --> 00:28:15.767
independent ground,

00:28:15.787 --> 00:28:17.387
which you do not plug them into the

00:28:17.407 --> 00:28:17.928
wall, folks.

00:28:19.109 --> 00:28:20.510
Yeah, let me just cover that real quick.

00:28:21.090 --> 00:28:22.152
I'll cover a couple of questions.

00:28:22.751 --> 00:28:25.353
Do not plug your grounding mats into the

00:28:25.373 --> 00:28:25.673
wall.

00:28:26.493 --> 00:28:27.494
Let me say that one more time.

00:28:27.575 --> 00:28:28.994
Do not plug them into the wall.

00:28:29.556 --> 00:28:31.277
You have a whole lot of dirty electricity

00:28:31.336 --> 00:28:31.896
out there, y'all,

00:28:32.037 --> 00:28:33.377
and you are being part of it.

00:28:34.238 --> 00:28:35.459
I don't care how well you think you

00:28:35.499 --> 00:28:36.199
attenuate it.

00:28:36.479 --> 00:28:37.200
It ain't good enough.

00:28:37.240 --> 00:28:38.861
You need your independent ground going out

00:28:38.901 --> 00:28:39.941
a window, through the floor.

00:28:39.961 --> 00:28:41.162
I don't care how you get out there.

00:28:41.961 --> 00:28:43.423
Put those things, get them off.

00:28:44.663 --> 00:28:46.224
There is too much dirty electricity on

00:28:46.244 --> 00:28:46.924
these power lines.

00:28:47.525 --> 00:28:48.165
And with all these...

00:28:49.041 --> 00:28:51.125
You could use a capacitor bank and clean

00:28:51.164 --> 00:28:51.744
all these up,

00:28:52.306 --> 00:28:53.488
but the powers that shouldn't be don't

00:28:53.528 --> 00:28:54.188
care about you.

00:28:55.009 --> 00:28:56.111
So you don't need to know what a

00:28:56.151 --> 00:28:57.112
capacitor bank is.

00:28:57.132 --> 00:28:58.713
Yeah, there are ways to clean it up,

00:28:58.733 --> 00:29:01.096
but it's a zero-sum game because as you

00:29:01.116 --> 00:29:02.198
clean up the dirty power,

00:29:02.238 --> 00:29:04.721
you increase the RF through that device.

00:29:05.430 --> 00:29:06.790
Yeah, won't go through all that.

00:29:06.891 --> 00:29:07.711
I will say, though,

00:29:08.392 --> 00:29:09.492
best thing you can do with a grounding

00:29:09.532 --> 00:29:09.752
mat,

00:29:09.792 --> 00:29:11.173
make sure it's independently grounded,

00:29:11.394 --> 00:29:13.414
and they sell those rods where you can

00:29:13.474 --> 00:29:14.756
stuff them like a one-foot rod.

00:29:14.776 --> 00:29:15.856
You can get it into the ground.

00:29:16.576 --> 00:29:17.897
Or if you're clever, you know,

00:29:17.917 --> 00:29:19.819
you can find, you know, someplace that's,

00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:20.400
you know,

00:29:20.440 --> 00:29:21.840
put it on an eight-foot grounding rod if

00:29:21.861 --> 00:29:22.320
you have to.

00:29:22.781 --> 00:29:23.842
That's going to be the best anyway.

00:29:24.383 --> 00:29:26.483
So go check them out.

00:29:26.624 --> 00:29:27.924
Soil saviors, finally,

00:29:27.944 --> 00:29:28.986
for the people that want to know about

00:29:29.026 --> 00:29:29.185
that,

00:29:29.205 --> 00:29:30.686
we've got that in the link down below,

00:29:30.707 --> 00:29:31.788
or you can go to the website at

00:29:31.807 --> 00:29:32.607
Permapastures Farm.

00:29:32.627 --> 00:29:33.588
All right,

00:29:33.669 --> 00:29:35.049
so let's go to the good news here.

00:29:35.869 --> 00:29:36.529
All right.

00:29:36.730 --> 00:29:39.171
So check this one out.

00:29:39.191 --> 00:29:40.050
They just found,

00:29:40.490 --> 00:29:41.371
now you're going to be thinking,

00:29:41.411 --> 00:29:42.530
why is he even covering this?

00:29:43.011 --> 00:29:45.011
They got a mysterious new monkey species.

00:29:45.071 --> 00:29:47.732
Dig this with orange lips and a pig

00:29:48.113 --> 00:29:51.073
like snort found in the Congo rainforest.

00:29:51.792 --> 00:29:53.114
Maybe they'd have found it a little bit

00:29:53.173 --> 00:29:53.614
sooner.

00:29:54.114 --> 00:29:55.933
Had we not been starting wars in the

00:29:55.973 --> 00:29:58.515
Congo since JFK got assassinated.

00:29:59.075 --> 00:29:59.414
Trust me.

00:29:59.434 --> 00:30:00.694
Y'all want to hear the history on that

00:30:00.775 --> 00:30:00.855
one.

00:30:00.894 --> 00:30:01.134
Boy,

00:30:01.194 --> 00:30:03.036
I could blow your minds on what happened

00:30:03.056 --> 00:30:03.316
there.

00:30:04.195 --> 00:30:04.336
Um,

00:30:05.296 --> 00:30:06.215
Yeah, Lumumba,

00:30:06.336 --> 00:30:07.517
the whole nine yards and what our

00:30:07.557 --> 00:30:08.576
government did over there.

00:30:09.076 --> 00:30:10.657
Anyway, Congo has been a mess,

00:30:10.817 --> 00:30:12.498
even though they are probably – they got

00:30:12.518 --> 00:30:15.519
the biggest – they got more minerals and

00:30:15.558 --> 00:30:16.419
everything else over there,

00:30:16.479 --> 00:30:17.398
and we intentionally,

00:30:17.459 --> 00:30:18.779
and the other powers that shouldn't be,

00:30:19.220 --> 00:30:20.940
intentionally keep them in a lifelong

00:30:21.019 --> 00:30:21.740
civil war,

00:30:22.361 --> 00:30:24.520
even though it could be one incredible

00:30:24.560 --> 00:30:24.780
place.

00:30:24.800 --> 00:30:27.561
In fact, about a year or two ago,

00:30:27.602 --> 00:30:32.644
I was tapped by this –

00:30:30.968 --> 00:30:32.950
Aid agency wanted me to start Chicken

00:30:32.990 --> 00:30:35.632
Tractor on steroids over there in the

00:30:35.652 --> 00:30:36.053
Congo.

00:30:36.905 --> 00:30:38.267
they were talking about guaranteeing my

00:30:38.326 --> 00:30:40.749
safety i'm like nah you ain't guaranteeing

00:30:40.808 --> 00:30:43.330
nobody's safety over there right now um

00:30:43.411 --> 00:30:44.590
anyway i was reaching out to some of

00:30:44.631 --> 00:30:46.272
my special forces buddies to see if we

00:30:46.313 --> 00:30:48.233
could you know work something out just

00:30:48.273 --> 00:30:49.694
didn't make sense and honestly i didn't

00:30:49.714 --> 00:30:51.056
feel the lord calling me to do it

00:30:51.135 --> 00:30:53.998
so every time i don't obey i got

00:30:54.038 --> 00:30:55.558
problems and i certainly don't want my

00:30:55.638 --> 00:30:57.881
head removed because i didn't obey back to

00:30:57.901 --> 00:30:59.842
this monkey and i ain't talking about

00:30:59.902 --> 00:31:00.623
michelle obama

00:31:03.519 --> 00:31:04.839
Yeah, I actually said it.

00:31:04.960 --> 00:31:06.300
I think everybody's actually seen that

00:31:06.340 --> 00:31:08.102
meme out there where she's got her teeth

00:31:08.122 --> 00:31:08.903
showing in a whole lot.

00:31:09.222 --> 00:31:10.943
I swear she looks like the monkey in

00:31:10.983 --> 00:31:11.545
this video.

00:31:12.645 --> 00:31:13.506
I'm dead serious.

00:31:13.906 --> 00:31:15.288
That was the first thing that popped into

00:31:15.307 --> 00:31:15.788
my head.

00:31:16.528 --> 00:31:19.089
And anyway, mysterious new monkey.

00:31:19.130 --> 00:31:20.330
So it's there in the Congo and they

00:31:20.371 --> 00:31:21.571
just found this species.

00:31:22.553 --> 00:31:22.772
Folks,

00:31:22.792 --> 00:31:24.574
the reason I'm saying this is good news

00:31:25.115 --> 00:31:27.215
is how many undiscovered things are right

00:31:27.236 --> 00:31:27.836
around the bend.

00:31:28.973 --> 00:31:29.855
I could swear, man,

00:31:29.994 --> 00:31:31.115
I don't know if I discovered it,

00:31:31.195 --> 00:31:32.576
but I know I remember when I was

00:31:32.636 --> 00:31:33.136
in Kuwait,

00:31:33.758 --> 00:31:35.439
I was laying in the sand and there

00:31:35.459 --> 00:31:39.102
was this little reptile on all four legs.

00:31:39.142 --> 00:31:40.482
Weirdest thing I ever seen in my life.

00:31:41.384 --> 00:31:43.846
And back then there were no camera phones

00:31:43.885 --> 00:31:44.605
and stuff like that.

00:31:45.267 --> 00:31:46.647
He stood on all four legs.

00:31:47.388 --> 00:31:49.410
And I remember being in a prone position

00:31:49.470 --> 00:31:49.750
out there.

00:31:49.769 --> 00:31:51.132
I'm in there with this guy named Gino.

00:31:52.184 --> 00:31:53.826
we're taking off our kevlar hats i mean

00:31:53.865 --> 00:31:55.385
you're doing anything to try to pass the

00:31:55.425 --> 00:31:57.247
time you're sweating like a runaway slave

00:31:57.307 --> 00:31:59.547
out there in the sun no cover no

00:31:59.626 --> 00:32:01.688
nothing and we're covering this thing up

00:32:01.708 --> 00:32:03.167
with sand and it would be on top

00:32:03.188 --> 00:32:04.628
of the sand every time we'd cover it

00:32:04.689 --> 00:32:06.489
up started with a handful then we're

00:32:06.529 --> 00:32:07.990
taking our kevlar's just dumping it on

00:32:08.009 --> 00:32:10.151
this little creature and i was like man

00:32:10.171 --> 00:32:11.431
this is the craziest thing i've ever seen

00:32:11.451 --> 00:32:12.671
in my life we tried to capture it

00:32:12.711 --> 00:32:15.372
but it wasn't happening me and gino both

00:32:15.412 --> 00:32:17.192
thought man did we just discover something

00:32:17.232 --> 00:32:17.413
here

00:32:18.519 --> 00:32:19.460
And how many other things?

00:32:19.500 --> 00:32:19.700
I mean,

00:32:20.180 --> 00:32:21.601
we're talking about going to space, man.

00:32:21.641 --> 00:32:23.182
We don't even know what's in the oceans.

00:32:24.242 --> 00:32:25.364
And here it is right here in the

00:32:25.384 --> 00:32:26.003
Congo.

00:32:26.484 --> 00:32:28.886
They discover a Michelle Obama type

00:32:28.946 --> 00:32:29.326
monkey.

00:32:29.346 --> 00:32:31.167
I don't know what else to call this

00:32:31.188 --> 00:32:31.407
thing.

00:32:31.488 --> 00:32:32.489
They discover this thing.

00:32:33.890 --> 00:32:34.490
And here it is.

00:32:34.671 --> 00:32:35.330
It's on the radar.

00:32:36.051 --> 00:32:37.692
This giant animal that looks like,

00:32:37.712 --> 00:32:38.854
I can't, Opaku,

00:32:39.433 --> 00:32:40.414
I can't remember what it was.

00:32:40.914 --> 00:32:41.776
It wasn't, you know,

00:32:42.536 --> 00:32:44.397
long ago that they discovered that over in

00:32:44.478 --> 00:32:44.758
Africa.

00:32:45.615 --> 00:32:47.317
many other things out there i mean yeah

00:32:47.336 --> 00:32:48.396
i'm gonna go a little on the wild

00:32:48.438 --> 00:32:52.520
side here you know bigfoot you know what

00:32:52.580 --> 00:32:54.021
is that so many people have seen it

00:32:54.682 --> 00:32:56.364
people that i don't believe are lying

00:32:56.384 --> 00:32:57.724
about it now what did they see that

00:32:57.744 --> 00:32:59.906
they see some cryptid from the you know

00:32:59.926 --> 00:33:01.749
is it some nephilim creature i don't know

00:33:02.288 --> 00:33:04.191
is it some ape out there some skunk

00:33:04.310 --> 00:33:07.252
ape i don't know all i know is

00:33:07.292 --> 00:33:07.512
that

00:33:08.290 --> 00:33:09.432
When you find things like this,

00:33:09.492 --> 00:33:11.095
I wonder how many children out there are

00:33:11.134 --> 00:33:13.076
reinvigorated to think, you know what,

00:33:13.156 --> 00:33:13.317
man,

00:33:13.337 --> 00:33:14.838
there are still things on this earth to

00:33:14.858 --> 00:33:16.821
be found, things to be discovered.

00:33:16.942 --> 00:33:19.105
I mean, right now, folks,

00:33:19.766 --> 00:33:20.426
I'm dead serious.

00:33:20.446 --> 00:33:21.607
I'm going to go on a little bit

00:33:21.847 --> 00:33:22.608
of a tangent here,

00:33:22.628 --> 00:33:23.369
as I'm known to do.

00:33:24.846 --> 00:33:26.907
steamboat arabia i remember when i was in

00:33:26.968 --> 00:33:28.888
college i was finishing up college when i

00:33:28.909 --> 00:33:32.309
was in kansas city and um i didn't

00:33:32.329 --> 00:33:33.530
live in kansas city we lived on the

00:33:33.590 --> 00:33:35.551
outskirts of it anyway there's a place

00:33:35.571 --> 00:33:37.712
called the steamboat arabia museum there

00:33:37.732 --> 00:33:39.292
was a family over there called the holly

00:33:39.313 --> 00:33:41.953
family that back in the eighties they went

00:33:41.993 --> 00:33:44.214
down there and they found one of the

00:33:44.255 --> 00:33:46.276
steamboats that was alongside the missouri

00:33:46.316 --> 00:33:48.037
river now that river has changed over the

00:33:48.076 --> 00:33:49.897
years took different courses

00:33:50.887 --> 00:33:53.109
And they pulled up a steamboat called the

00:33:53.130 --> 00:33:54.191
Steamboat Arabia, I think.

00:33:54.571 --> 00:33:55.071
And then, of course,

00:33:55.112 --> 00:33:56.053
the moment they picked it up,

00:33:56.093 --> 00:33:58.095
the state wanted to go in there like

00:33:58.115 --> 00:33:59.797
a Snoop Dogg song and take half their

00:33:59.856 --> 00:34:00.457
proceeds.

00:34:00.857 --> 00:34:02.439
So they said, OK, forget about all that.

00:34:02.459 --> 00:34:03.420
We'll just make a museum.

00:34:03.559 --> 00:34:05.662
So it's a privately funded and owned

00:34:05.682 --> 00:34:06.123
museum.

00:34:06.563 --> 00:34:07.544
If you're ever in Kansas City,

00:34:07.564 --> 00:34:08.605
you really ought to check it out in

00:34:08.625 --> 00:34:09.626
the River Arts District.

00:34:10.746 --> 00:34:11.086
Anyway.

00:34:12.889 --> 00:34:13.349
I remember.

00:34:14.228 --> 00:34:16.411
When I was going through a course in

00:34:16.471 --> 00:34:16.811
college,

00:34:16.831 --> 00:34:18.552
it was like history of Kansas City museums

00:34:18.572 --> 00:34:19.213
or something like that.

00:34:19.253 --> 00:34:19.873
I thought it was going to be a

00:34:19.934 --> 00:34:20.795
blow off elective.

00:34:21.315 --> 00:34:22.635
But since I'm in the history, I thought,

00:34:22.695 --> 00:34:23.677
okay, I'll check this out.

00:34:24.438 --> 00:34:25.679
One of the best courses I ever took

00:34:25.719 --> 00:34:26.259
in college.

00:34:27.139 --> 00:34:28.900
And anyway, I remember Greg Hawley.

00:34:28.940 --> 00:34:30.242
He's since passed on right now.

00:34:30.282 --> 00:34:32.023
He's one of the Hawley people or the

00:34:32.063 --> 00:34:33.445
Hawley family that actually brought this

00:34:33.485 --> 00:34:33.824
thing up.

00:34:34.346 --> 00:34:35.327
He's doing the class.

00:34:35.786 --> 00:34:37.568
And I made sure I positioned myself to

00:34:37.588 --> 00:34:38.869
be the last person leaving because I

00:34:38.889 --> 00:34:39.769
wanted to ask him something.

00:34:40.411 --> 00:34:41.311
I went up to him and I said,

00:34:41.331 --> 00:34:41.552
Greg,

00:34:42.724 --> 00:34:44.706
man, I just saw a book in your,

00:34:45.166 --> 00:34:46.786
I saw a book over there in your

00:34:46.826 --> 00:34:49.807
library where you have GPS coordinates of

00:34:50.027 --> 00:34:52.628
every single ship alongside that river.

00:34:53.188 --> 00:34:53.349
Yeah,

00:34:53.369 --> 00:34:54.768
I know Uncle Sam wants to take fifty

00:34:54.789 --> 00:34:55.250
percent of it,

00:34:55.269 --> 00:34:56.869
but you said there's still ships down

00:34:56.909 --> 00:34:58.271
there worth over a billion dollars.

00:34:58.291 --> 00:34:59.371
And folks, that was years ago.

00:35:00.070 --> 00:35:01.211
I mean, it must have been twenty years.

00:35:01.311 --> 00:35:02.032
I don't know how long,

00:35:02.072 --> 00:35:03.072
but it was a long ago when I

00:35:03.092 --> 00:35:03.913
had this conversation.

00:35:04.333 --> 00:35:05.632
And it was a billion bucks then.

00:35:06.233 --> 00:35:09.355
They had ships filled with pre-Civil War

00:35:09.534 --> 00:35:10.014
armaments.

00:35:10.804 --> 00:35:12.746
I mean, absolute history right there.

00:35:12.786 --> 00:35:13.005
I said,

00:35:13.045 --> 00:35:14.766
how come you have never been back?

00:35:16.065 --> 00:35:16.887
He paused for a moment,

00:35:17.666 --> 00:35:18.606
got a little bit closer,

00:35:18.726 --> 00:35:19.606
almost uncomfortably,

00:35:19.766 --> 00:35:20.768
looked me dead in my eyes,

00:35:20.788 --> 00:35:21.148
and he said,

00:35:21.327 --> 00:35:22.307
I got a question for you.

00:35:23.188 --> 00:35:24.349
How come you haven't been after it?

00:35:25.889 --> 00:35:26.728
Folks, I'm not going to lie.

00:35:26.768 --> 00:35:29.110
That has troubled me from that day until

00:35:29.230 --> 00:35:29.809
this day.

00:35:30.570 --> 00:35:32.951
Every single time I come across a story

00:35:32.971 --> 00:35:33.331
like this,

00:35:33.371 --> 00:35:35.271
I'm sorry to get a little bit emotional

00:35:35.311 --> 00:35:36.052
or choked up,

00:35:37.512 --> 00:35:37.711
but

00:35:41.994 --> 00:35:42.974
I made a lot of mistakes in my

00:35:42.994 --> 00:35:43.293
life.

00:35:45.034 --> 00:35:46.554
And I've since,

00:35:46.574 --> 00:35:48.195
since I've gotten past those things,

00:35:48.476 --> 00:35:49.856
those problems, those issues,

00:35:49.896 --> 00:35:51.536
those things laid onto me as a kid,

00:35:52.976 --> 00:35:54.038
I said, I will never.

00:35:54.157 --> 00:35:55.677
And there's a quote from one of my

00:35:55.717 --> 00:35:58.018
favorite Louis L'Amour books in there,

00:35:58.478 --> 00:36:01.659
the Corsair, I will call him.

00:36:02.539 --> 00:36:03.541
He says a quote in there that I've

00:36:03.581 --> 00:36:04.101
never forgotten.

00:36:04.141 --> 00:36:04.380
He says,

00:36:04.400 --> 00:36:06.362
I will owe no debt to my destiny.

00:36:07.981 --> 00:36:09.443
That's one of those debts y'all that I

00:36:09.483 --> 00:36:10.402
still have yet to pay.

00:36:12.047 --> 00:36:12.927
It's one of those things.

00:36:12.967 --> 00:36:13.188
I mean,

00:36:13.387 --> 00:36:15.329
I know people right now in this audience

00:36:15.929 --> 00:36:16.769
that if I said, hey, y'all,

00:36:16.849 --> 00:36:18.829
let's go after this ship.

00:36:20.030 --> 00:36:20.570
And you know what?

00:36:20.610 --> 00:36:21.751
We'll take a fair piece of it.

00:36:21.771 --> 00:36:22.931
We'll put it in a museum.

00:36:23.331 --> 00:36:24.452
We'll take another fair piece.

00:36:24.472 --> 00:36:25.052
We'll keep it.

00:36:25.172 --> 00:36:26.773
And then we'll sell some stuff off to

00:36:26.813 --> 00:36:28.333
pay for the expedition and maybe put a

00:36:28.353 --> 00:36:29.454
little money in our pockets.

00:36:30.193 --> 00:36:31.994
That thing was worth a billion bucks then.

00:36:32.135 --> 00:36:33.235
What do you think it's worth now?

00:36:33.355 --> 00:36:35.556
And it's not like the Atocha in the

00:36:35.596 --> 00:36:36.056
Atlantic.

00:36:36.516 --> 00:36:38.137
We know exactly where all these ships are.

00:36:38.777 --> 00:36:39.458
And to my knowledge,

00:36:39.498 --> 00:36:40.418
nobody's ever been back.

00:36:41.652 --> 00:36:41.833
Yeah,

00:36:41.913 --> 00:36:43.514
Uncle Sam's going to steal fifty percent

00:36:43.554 --> 00:36:43.713
of it,

00:36:44.275 --> 00:36:45.876
but I might be able to make do

00:36:45.956 --> 00:36:48.958
on half a half a billion dollars and

00:36:48.978 --> 00:36:49.998
all the people that work with me.

00:36:50.518 --> 00:36:50.938
So anyway,

00:36:51.059 --> 00:36:52.960
me as a fifty five year old man

00:36:53.000 --> 00:36:54.440
and I'm sitting here thinking, man.

00:36:55.802 --> 00:36:57.103
I love to go after one of these

00:36:57.123 --> 00:36:57.322
things.

00:36:57.402 --> 00:36:58.784
Maybe I need to find a way to

00:36:58.824 --> 00:37:01.226
get this done and maybe get a gang

00:37:01.246 --> 00:37:02.746
of people out there to get it done

00:37:03.447 --> 00:37:05.088
because the Holly family did it back in

00:37:05.108 --> 00:37:06.889
the eighties with very few resources.

00:37:06.909 --> 00:37:08.570
And I'm wondering, man.

00:37:09.320 --> 00:37:10.402
What would it be like to go over

00:37:10.422 --> 00:37:11.282
there and make a deal with one of

00:37:11.302 --> 00:37:13.164
these farmers where it's in a farm field

00:37:13.204 --> 00:37:15.326
now and go pick one of these up?

00:37:15.385 --> 00:37:16.567
I mean, treasure hunting.

00:37:16.987 --> 00:37:18.588
Is that any different than this story that

00:37:18.628 --> 00:37:19.449
I'm talking about here?

00:37:20.269 --> 00:37:21.050
I don't think it is.

00:37:21.670 --> 00:37:22.731
And I think there's a whole lot of

00:37:22.751 --> 00:37:24.092
people in the sound of my voice right

00:37:24.152 --> 00:37:26.775
now that somewhere along the way,

00:37:26.815 --> 00:37:28.215
I think so many of us have just,

00:37:28.896 --> 00:37:30.137
we forgot that wonder,

00:37:30.177 --> 00:37:32.039
that childlike wonder that we had as a

00:37:32.079 --> 00:37:32.280
kid.

00:37:32.320 --> 00:37:34.621
Now, I have rediscovered it in many ways,

00:37:34.661 --> 00:37:35.021
farming.

00:37:36.411 --> 00:37:38.952
But there are those other Indiana Jones

00:37:38.992 --> 00:37:39.871
moments that all of us,

00:37:40.032 --> 00:37:40.913
I think so many of us,

00:37:40.952 --> 00:37:41.693
wish that we had.

00:37:42.574 --> 00:37:43.693
And this is one of those for me.

00:37:43.793 --> 00:37:49.056
So maybe if this earth keeps moving and

00:37:49.096 --> 00:37:50.456
doing, well, I think it's stationary.

00:37:50.496 --> 00:37:50.916
But anyway,

00:37:51.856 --> 00:37:53.117
if the things keep going the way they

00:37:53.217 --> 00:37:53.418
are,

00:37:54.498 --> 00:37:56.039
I think maybe I might just say forget

00:37:56.059 --> 00:37:57.659
it and go out to Missouri or Kansas,

00:37:57.699 --> 00:37:59.039
wherever these things are located right

00:37:59.079 --> 00:37:59.199
now,

00:37:59.219 --> 00:38:00.521
and go dig up one of those ships.

00:38:01.360 --> 00:38:01.601
Anyway,

00:38:01.661 --> 00:38:02.842
holler if you hear me in the chat.

00:38:03.719 --> 00:38:05.619
Anyway, yeah, another one here.

00:38:05.800 --> 00:38:07.141
Let's see here.

00:38:07.260 --> 00:38:07.481
U.S.

00:38:07.521 --> 00:38:07.900
troops.

00:38:08.061 --> 00:38:09.521
I spent maybe a little too much time

00:38:09.581 --> 00:38:09.900
on that,

00:38:09.940 --> 00:38:11.260
but I think there's a whole lot of

00:38:11.280 --> 00:38:13.041
people are giving me a virtual amen

00:38:13.742 --> 00:38:15.041
because I think so many of us just

00:38:15.121 --> 00:38:16.461
lost that childlike wonder.

00:38:17.121 --> 00:38:18.802
Anyway, here's another good news story.

00:38:18.943 --> 00:38:19.163
U.S.

00:38:19.202 --> 00:38:20.862
troops to leave Iraq by the end of

00:38:20.922 --> 00:38:21.483
September,

00:38:21.643 --> 00:38:23.282
ending in a three-year deployment.

00:38:23.902 --> 00:38:24.923
Okay, on the face of it,

00:38:24.943 --> 00:38:26.384
that seems like really good news, right?

00:38:27.704 --> 00:38:30.905
Or are they going to be repositioned to

00:38:30.945 --> 00:38:32.425
go over to Iran?

00:38:33.242 --> 00:38:34.443
Don't put it past them, y'all.

00:38:34.784 --> 00:38:35.324
But right now,

00:38:35.344 --> 00:38:36.943
I'm going to chalk that up as good

00:38:36.983 --> 00:38:37.164
news,

00:38:37.204 --> 00:38:38.744
but I think that's just a rope-a-dope.

00:38:39.364 --> 00:38:40.826
And then finally, this last one here,

00:38:40.965 --> 00:38:42.567
ancient kitchen remedy proven to

00:38:42.626 --> 00:38:44.286
neutralize deadly pathogens.

00:38:45.208 --> 00:38:47.027
I guess I better be careful about that

00:38:47.088 --> 00:38:47.608
talking about.

00:38:48.009 --> 00:38:49.009
Okay, in a nutshell,

00:38:49.028 --> 00:38:51.130
what they're doing is basically saying you

00:38:51.170 --> 00:38:53.311
got ginger, great for everything.

00:38:53.731 --> 00:38:55.431
You got garlic, great for everything.

00:38:55.471 --> 00:38:56.612
Y'all, I eat probably...

00:38:57.972 --> 00:39:01.092
maybe four massive cloves of garlic every

00:39:01.152 --> 00:39:01.853
single day.

00:39:02.753 --> 00:39:04.213
I do it for a whole variety of

00:39:04.253 --> 00:39:04.594
reasons.

00:39:05.293 --> 00:39:05.634
In fact,

00:39:05.673 --> 00:39:07.094
I just got finished eating brisket before

00:39:07.134 --> 00:39:08.514
I came in here to this studio.

00:39:08.534 --> 00:39:10.494
I had brisket and potatoes,

00:39:11.094 --> 00:39:12.596
and I crushed up, you know,

00:39:12.615 --> 00:39:13.436
fifteen minutes prior,

00:39:13.556 --> 00:39:14.715
I crushed up some garlic,

00:39:15.396 --> 00:39:16.956
put it through the garlic press, and,

00:39:17.117 --> 00:39:17.376
you know,

00:39:17.456 --> 00:39:19.056
I'll just mix it into whatever I'm eating,

00:39:19.498 --> 00:39:20.757
and it's just a fact of business.

00:39:21.137 --> 00:39:21.557
But anyway,

00:39:21.577 --> 00:39:22.898
they're talking about in this article that

00:39:23.918 --> 00:39:24.958
if you can combine the two,

00:39:25.784 --> 00:39:27.807
Good night, heavens to Murgatroyd.

00:39:27.827 --> 00:39:29.128
You got yourself something there.

00:39:29.690 --> 00:39:31.972
So that's good news as well.

00:39:32.452 --> 00:39:32.632
All right,

00:39:32.652 --> 00:39:33.675
so let me just cover some of these

00:39:33.715 --> 00:39:34.456
questions right quick.

00:39:35.376 --> 00:39:36.737
How do you keep Japanese beetles from

00:39:36.818 --> 00:39:37.518
eating your peaches?

00:39:37.719 --> 00:39:39.181
I'm using the very same thing I talked

00:39:39.201 --> 00:39:39.402
about.

00:39:40.101 --> 00:39:40.503
You have,

00:39:40.543 --> 00:39:42.045
like when I had Jack Spierko on the

00:39:42.085 --> 00:39:42.425
other day,

00:39:43.166 --> 00:39:44.467
He was talking about the bricks reading in

00:39:44.507 --> 00:39:44.987
his garden.

00:39:45.487 --> 00:39:47.409
The higher the sugar content or the bricks

00:39:47.429 --> 00:39:49.170
reading in what you're growing out there,

00:39:49.670 --> 00:39:51.692
it will basically make your garden

00:39:51.831 --> 00:39:53.012
impervious to pests.

00:39:53.514 --> 00:39:53.793
Remember,

00:39:53.813 --> 00:39:55.695
you don't have a Japanese beetle problem.

00:39:56.295 --> 00:39:58.336
You got a lack of good soil problem.

00:39:58.356 --> 00:39:59.117
That's what you got there.

00:39:59.217 --> 00:40:00.539
I don't have a codling moth problem.

00:40:00.898 --> 00:40:02.280
I got a lack of good soil problem.

00:40:02.300 --> 00:40:03.481
That's exactly where it is.

00:40:04.061 --> 00:40:04.181
Now,

00:40:04.222 --> 00:40:06.123
it doesn't hurt when you have codling moth

00:40:06.163 --> 00:40:08.284
traps out there like Stefan Subkoviak has.

00:40:09.025 --> 00:40:09.847
Really easy to make.

00:40:09.867 --> 00:40:11.213
Go check out his permaculture orchard

00:40:11.233 --> 00:40:11.494
video.

00:40:11.514 --> 00:40:13.059
Go check out any video the man's ever

00:40:13.099 --> 00:40:13.400
made.

00:40:14.152 --> 00:40:15.974
And he talks about how he goes about

00:40:16.034 --> 00:40:16.494
doing that.

00:40:18.016 --> 00:40:19.538
So yeah, remember,

00:40:19.777 --> 00:40:21.219
you got to reposition the way you think

00:40:21.239 --> 00:40:22.219
about it in permaculture.

00:40:22.599 --> 00:40:23.601
You don't have a beetle problem.

00:40:23.641 --> 00:40:26.664
You got a lack of vitality in your

00:40:26.704 --> 00:40:27.003
soil.

00:40:27.043 --> 00:40:28.724
That's really what your number one problem

00:40:28.784 --> 00:40:28.905
is.

00:40:29.545 --> 00:40:31.286
Oh, Ken and Amy, okay, salad issue.

00:40:31.327 --> 00:40:32.989
The outbreak of diarrhea from the

00:40:33.188 --> 00:40:34.469
parasites is surging.

00:40:35.030 --> 00:40:36.452
Yeah, folks, if you only knew,

00:40:36.992 --> 00:40:39.014
if a lot of people only knew the

00:40:39.054 --> 00:40:39.815
extent to,

00:40:39.875 --> 00:40:41.215
if you knew how your food got to

00:40:41.255 --> 00:40:41.356
you,

00:40:42.590 --> 00:40:43.211
I mean, good night.

00:40:43.393 --> 00:40:44.835
If you knew that most of that salad

00:40:44.855 --> 00:40:46.759
came up out of Mexico or California,

00:40:46.778 --> 00:40:48.181
which may not even be in your zip

00:40:48.202 --> 00:40:49.664
code, you wouldn't buy it.

00:40:50.085 --> 00:40:50.847
Or maybe you would.

00:40:51.789 --> 00:40:52.869
Or if you know that they're out there

00:40:52.909 --> 00:40:54.130
defecating in the fields where they're

00:40:54.170 --> 00:40:56.010
picking, if you knew about that stuff,

00:40:56.030 --> 00:40:57.130
you might think twice about it.

00:40:57.751 --> 00:40:58.931
So, yeah, be careful about that.

00:40:58.951 --> 00:40:59.911
I'm glad you pointed that out.

00:41:00.831 --> 00:41:02.132
Hey, everyone, hit that like button.

00:41:02.152 --> 00:41:03.351
Thank you so much, Nancy.

00:41:03.431 --> 00:41:04.612
Let's see if we got any folks.

00:41:04.652 --> 00:41:05.393
If I'm missing you,

00:41:05.413 --> 00:41:06.873
it's because you didn't put it in capital

00:41:06.992 --> 00:41:07.353
letters.

00:41:07.373 --> 00:41:08.253
That's the only way I can read it

00:41:08.273 --> 00:41:09.594
with these birth control glasses.

00:41:10.313 --> 00:41:12.634
So, yeah, Christy's saying raw.

00:41:12.713 --> 00:41:13.914
Yeah, that's how I eat that garlic.

00:41:13.954 --> 00:41:14.534
I eat it raw.

00:41:15.215 --> 00:41:17.175
Or one thing you could do also is

00:41:17.375 --> 00:41:18.014
you can crush it up.

00:41:18.835 --> 00:41:19.856
I love the taste of garlic.

00:41:19.876 --> 00:41:20.735
It doesn't really bother me.

00:41:21.596 --> 00:41:22.637
Man, I just crush it up.

00:41:23.056 --> 00:41:23.916
And if it's a problem for you,

00:41:23.936 --> 00:41:24.898
I just stick it in my mouth.

00:41:24.938 --> 00:41:25.759
You can do it, you know,

00:41:25.798 --> 00:41:27.440
crush up some ginger as well.

00:41:27.800 --> 00:41:28.659
Just swallow it all.

00:41:28.880 --> 00:41:30.882
Man, I eat for performance these days.

00:41:30.922 --> 00:41:32.722
That's how a playa rolls.

00:41:33.503 --> 00:41:33.862
All right,

00:41:33.963 --> 00:41:35.483
so we got no more questions here.

00:41:35.503 --> 00:41:36.525
I'm going to go to my man,

00:41:36.625 --> 00:41:37.164
Eric Sider,

00:41:37.186 --> 00:41:38.565
and take a drink of this water in

00:41:38.626 --> 00:41:39.887
a bottle.

00:41:40.007 --> 00:41:40.246
Hey,

00:41:40.367 --> 00:41:42.469
Eric Sider here with your PimpCast tip of

00:41:42.489 --> 00:41:43.068
the day.

00:41:43.248 --> 00:41:45.851
Today's tip is the system worth saving.

00:41:46.860 --> 00:41:49.001
My friend and colleague Matthew Trum was

00:41:49.061 --> 00:41:50.742
recently hit with some terrible news

00:41:50.802 --> 00:41:53.063
regarding the school food forest he set up

00:41:53.242 --> 00:41:54.143
over ten years ago.

00:41:54.822 --> 00:41:56.264
The maintenance department put in a

00:41:56.324 --> 00:41:58.905
request to redo the lawn that has become

00:41:58.925 --> 00:42:00.806
a muddy mess because they screwed it up

00:42:00.846 --> 00:42:01.826
the first time around,

00:42:03.166 --> 00:42:05.086
which has triggered an audit by the State

00:42:05.126 --> 00:42:06.108
Board of Architects.

00:42:06.487 --> 00:42:08.108
They want to rip out the whole food

00:42:08.128 --> 00:42:10.710
forest because it is in violation of their

00:42:10.809 --> 00:42:11.929
idiotic regulations.

00:42:12.510 --> 00:42:13.610
As far as I can tell,

00:42:15.114 --> 00:42:16.994
The State Board of Architects' main

00:42:17.054 --> 00:42:19.536
purpose is determining the most unlikely

00:42:19.637 --> 00:42:22.177
chance of harm or liability and using that

00:42:22.239 --> 00:42:24.460
to base their regulations on.

00:42:25.940 --> 00:42:27.561
It is certainly nothing that is best for

00:42:27.621 --> 00:42:28.983
people or the ecosystem.

00:42:29.983 --> 00:42:31.143
So here is the dilemma.

00:42:31.864 --> 00:42:33.425
Do we try and work within the system,

00:42:33.766 --> 00:42:35.887
potentially creating an approved school

00:42:35.927 --> 00:42:38.248
food forest design for all of California?

00:42:39.509 --> 00:42:40.010
Or say,

00:42:40.190 --> 00:42:42.130
go F yourself and start a war of

00:42:42.190 --> 00:42:42.911
public opinion?

00:42:43.871 --> 00:42:45.952
Both require significant time and energy,

00:42:47.112 --> 00:42:49.514
distracting from getting on with the work

00:42:50.456 --> 00:42:51.396
that needs to be done.

00:42:52.496 --> 00:42:52.637
Now,

00:42:52.697 --> 00:42:54.739
I almost always lean towards asking for

00:42:54.778 --> 00:42:56.340
forgiveness rather than permission.

00:42:57.260 --> 00:42:58.762
But Bill Mollison also said,

00:42:59.262 --> 00:43:00.882
the more regulations you have,

00:43:01.063 --> 00:43:02.164
the better the design.

00:43:03.545 --> 00:43:05.507
My main reason for considering working

00:43:05.527 --> 00:43:07.228
within the system is, unfortunately,

00:43:07.248 --> 00:43:09.068
that's where most of the financial capital

00:43:09.170 --> 00:43:09.309
is.

00:43:10.393 --> 00:43:12.693
And we must create paid livelihoods out of

00:43:12.833 --> 00:43:14.735
all this work of regenerating the

00:43:14.795 --> 00:43:15.436
ecosystem,

00:43:15.516 --> 00:43:17.097
or it just is not going to happen.

00:43:17.657 --> 00:43:19.498
Relying on volunteers is not only

00:43:19.577 --> 00:43:20.199
unrealistic,

00:43:20.759 --> 00:43:22.380
but it doesn't pass an energy audit

00:43:22.420 --> 00:43:22.800
anyway.

00:43:24.001 --> 00:43:25.081
I don't know what the answer is.

00:43:25.842 --> 00:43:26.902
Maybe all of the above.

00:43:28.083 --> 00:43:30.603
But another quote from Bill about creating

00:43:30.643 --> 00:43:32.846
an alternative system is that you must get

00:43:32.965 --> 00:43:34.927
the second hamster wheel up and running

00:43:35.606 --> 00:43:36.768
before you jump across.

00:43:38.106 --> 00:43:39.847
You can find me on YouTube and Instagram

00:43:39.927 --> 00:43:40.688
at Eric Sider.

00:43:40.987 --> 00:43:42.409
If you're in need of permaculture

00:43:42.429 --> 00:43:42.969
t-shirts,

00:43:43.148 --> 00:43:45.250
the official pimp gear of this pimp cast,

00:43:45.630 --> 00:43:47.452
or remote permaculture consultation and

00:43:47.492 --> 00:43:49.632
design, head over to ericsider.com.

00:43:50.092 --> 00:43:51.454
And for more information on my

00:43:51.534 --> 00:43:53.114
permaculture community group in the

00:43:53.175 --> 00:43:54.235
Sacramento area,

00:43:54.856 --> 00:43:57.217
head over to permaculturefairoaks.org.

00:43:58.001 --> 00:43:59.282
That's my dog right there.

00:43:59.603 --> 00:44:00.143
I mean, yeah,

00:44:00.184 --> 00:44:01.565
it's an easy dilemma for me to be

00:44:01.606 --> 00:44:03.429
in my little seat over here to say

00:44:03.469 --> 00:44:04.088
what I would do.

00:44:04.871 --> 00:44:06.652
I would tend to want to fight.

00:44:06.932 --> 00:44:07.153
I mean,

00:44:07.193 --> 00:44:08.896
that's exactly the way I'd roll with it.

00:44:09.896 --> 00:44:10.858
Or like Eric said,

00:44:11.219 --> 00:44:13.121
you can work within the nasty confines.

00:44:13.202 --> 00:44:14.242
I mean, I would rather...

00:44:15.244 --> 00:44:17.427
Anything I can do to put a nasty

00:44:17.467 --> 00:44:19.047
view on government these days, man,

00:44:19.088 --> 00:44:19.648
I'm going to do it,

00:44:20.108 --> 00:44:21.269
especially if I can do it through this

00:44:21.329 --> 00:44:22.951
platform or like that old boy that was

00:44:22.990 --> 00:44:24.351
up in Virginia, as a matter of fact,

00:44:24.373 --> 00:44:25.152
where they were going to come in there

00:44:25.172 --> 00:44:25.934
and take his pigs.

00:44:26.693 --> 00:44:28.615
There was such a stink raised about that

00:44:28.675 --> 00:44:30.117
where all of us were going to descend

00:44:30.177 --> 00:44:33.139
on the, what was it, the county seat?

00:44:33.300 --> 00:44:34.460
I can't remember the county building.

00:44:35.706 --> 00:44:36.827
Yeah, it was up there in Virginia.

00:44:37.427 --> 00:44:38.547
All of us were threatening to go up

00:44:38.586 --> 00:44:40.248
there, and they said, okay, yeah,

00:44:40.288 --> 00:44:41.168
case dismissed.

00:44:41.969 --> 00:44:43.610
And it was going to be a gang

00:44:43.630 --> 00:44:44.170
of us up there.

00:44:44.210 --> 00:44:45.791
So, Eric, if there's anything I can do,

00:44:45.811 --> 00:44:46.731
if you all decide to fight it,

00:44:46.771 --> 00:44:47.411
let me know.

00:44:47.831 --> 00:44:49.413
Let's see if we can mobilize some people

00:44:49.472 --> 00:44:50.934
all throughout this country to help in any

00:44:50.954 --> 00:44:51.414
way they can.

00:44:52.260 --> 00:44:54.023
Man, I hate the government, y'all.

00:44:54.184 --> 00:44:55.485
I hate it with a passion.

00:44:55.865 --> 00:44:57.509
Founding fathers are rolling over in their

00:44:57.548 --> 00:44:58.489
graves right now.

00:44:59.130 --> 00:44:59.431
All right,

00:44:59.490 --> 00:45:01.574
so got one here seeking to find.

00:45:01.655 --> 00:45:02.536
Yeah, he says,

00:45:02.576 --> 00:45:03.657
count me in for the ship hunt.

00:45:04.197 --> 00:45:05.139
I've been a listener for years,

00:45:05.159 --> 00:45:06.141
so if you're going to go for it,

00:45:06.581 --> 00:45:07.282
I'll get it done.

00:45:08.114 --> 00:45:08.856
It'll get done.

00:45:08.916 --> 00:45:10.117
Yeah.

00:45:10.237 --> 00:45:10.476
Wow.

00:45:10.516 --> 00:45:12.458
What a suitable name for, you know,

00:45:12.697 --> 00:45:13.659
potential treasure hunt.

00:45:14.159 --> 00:45:14.780
Like I said, y'all,

00:45:14.920 --> 00:45:16.460
I will owe no debt to my destiny.

00:45:16.621 --> 00:45:17.922
Even if I just got to find some

00:45:17.942 --> 00:45:19.543
financial backers that would be willing to

00:45:19.603 --> 00:45:20.103
do this.

00:45:21.025 --> 00:45:22.125
I don't know that I could fund it

00:45:22.166 --> 00:45:22.786
myself.

00:45:23.385 --> 00:45:25.188
But if for no other reason, man,

00:45:25.208 --> 00:45:26.688
you talk about an adventure.

00:45:27.960 --> 00:45:29.202
I think that would be an absolute

00:45:29.222 --> 00:45:29.661
adventure.

00:45:30.443 --> 00:45:33.143
So anyway, yeah,

00:45:33.565 --> 00:45:35.206
we'll maybe revisit that also.

00:45:35.666 --> 00:45:36.706
Donna, Ray, boy,

00:45:36.726 --> 00:45:38.086
you always got some good stuff here.

00:45:38.507 --> 00:45:39.748
Talking about the bones of the fallen

00:45:39.807 --> 00:45:40.228
giants.

00:45:40.289 --> 00:45:41.750
I don't know what conversation I missed

00:45:41.789 --> 00:45:42.030
here.

00:45:42.670 --> 00:45:44.251
And they created a dinosaur narrative,

00:45:44.731 --> 00:45:46.431
yeah, to create the fossil fuel shortage.

00:45:47.052 --> 00:45:48.052
I've talked about this before.

00:45:48.072 --> 00:45:49.494
If you go listen to Colonel Fletcher

00:45:49.534 --> 00:45:49.954
Prouty,

00:45:51.255 --> 00:45:53.557
One of the sharpest guys out there in

00:45:53.637 --> 00:45:53.958
history.

00:45:53.998 --> 00:45:54.998
He's passed on now.

00:45:55.478 --> 00:45:56.900
He was the guy that Mr.

00:45:57.199 --> 00:45:59.161
X in the movie JFK was modeled behind.

00:46:00.101 --> 00:46:01.302
Wicked smart guy.

00:46:02.063 --> 00:46:03.505
And he was in the know of so

00:46:03.545 --> 00:46:04.025
many things.

00:46:04.525 --> 00:46:05.146
You ought to hear,

00:46:05.226 --> 00:46:06.065
if you get a chance,

00:46:06.085 --> 00:46:08.987
go to his YouTube video about fossil fuel

00:46:09.228 --> 00:46:11.250
and what it is really and how the

00:46:11.289 --> 00:46:11.550
whole...

00:46:12.813 --> 00:46:15.114
The whole narrative is garbage from start

00:46:15.135 --> 00:46:15.494
to finish.

00:46:15.715 --> 00:46:16.715
Oil is abiotic.

00:46:16.735 --> 00:46:17.996
It didn't come from any fossils.

00:46:18.878 --> 00:46:20.338
And it's been well known for a long

00:46:20.378 --> 00:46:20.518
time.

00:46:20.559 --> 00:46:21.840
In fact, the Nazis knew it.

00:46:22.581 --> 00:46:24.963
And they tried to make it known to

00:46:24.983 --> 00:46:26.664
the rest of the world, but everybody else,

00:46:27.204 --> 00:46:29.827
this is how they keep us on the

00:46:29.847 --> 00:46:30.086
chain.

00:46:30.686 --> 00:46:30.907
All right,

00:46:30.927 --> 00:46:32.768
before I go hot and popping on this,

00:46:33.347 --> 00:46:34.289
Wellbots, remember, y'all,

00:46:34.309 --> 00:46:35.028
if you got in late,

00:46:35.509 --> 00:46:37.670
Wellbots has got a deal and a half.

00:46:38.030 --> 00:46:38.829
Go to the website.

00:46:38.869 --> 00:46:39.670
They got the Jackery.

00:46:39.690 --> 00:46:40.610
They got the EcoFlow.

00:46:40.630 --> 00:46:42.492
They even got underwater drones, man.

00:46:42.891 --> 00:46:44.492
They got stuff that's fifty percent off.

00:46:45.092 --> 00:46:49.253
Just put in B-Day, B-Day, B-Day thirteen.

00:46:49.373 --> 00:46:50.755
It's their thirteen year anniversary.

00:46:51.155 --> 00:46:52.835
You'll get thirteen percent off.

00:46:53.795 --> 00:46:54.235
Um,

00:46:54.275 --> 00:46:56.077
tonight they kept it on just a little

00:46:56.097 --> 00:46:57.518
bit longer to be able to get this

00:46:57.577 --> 00:46:58.197
deal to y'all.

00:46:58.257 --> 00:46:59.659
So, um, yeah,

00:46:59.679 --> 00:47:00.900
they wanted to make sure everybody in this

00:47:00.980 --> 00:47:01.500
audience had it.

00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:03.860
So after tonight, you know,

00:47:03.900 --> 00:47:04.541
the deal's off.

00:47:05.202 --> 00:47:05.842
And like I said,

00:47:05.882 --> 00:47:07.782
this stuff is already seriously

00:47:07.822 --> 00:47:08.322
discounted.

00:47:08.362 --> 00:47:09.164
So go check it out.

00:47:09.923 --> 00:47:10.483
All right.

00:47:10.563 --> 00:47:11.925
Let's see if we got some other questions

00:47:11.965 --> 00:47:12.264
in here.

00:47:12.364 --> 00:47:12.565
No.

00:47:12.605 --> 00:47:14.085
So I'm going to go hot and heavy

00:47:14.146 --> 00:47:14.346
on it.

00:47:14.425 --> 00:47:15.106
So why,

00:47:16.126 --> 00:47:18.148
why permaculture is more than gardening?

00:47:19.161 --> 00:47:19.440
Folks,

00:47:19.882 --> 00:47:22.063
I can't even begin to talk about why

00:47:22.123 --> 00:47:23.065
this is so important.

00:47:23.865 --> 00:47:24.706
I remember, in fact,

00:47:24.746 --> 00:47:26.088
I was on the phone earlier with a

00:47:26.148 --> 00:47:27.489
friend of mine just briefly,

00:47:28.190 --> 00:47:29.530
and I remember it was his wife that

00:47:29.570 --> 00:47:30.492
I first heard say,

00:47:30.512 --> 00:47:32.034
and I've since heard it since,

00:47:32.894 --> 00:47:35.476
that we were designing a property that

00:47:35.516 --> 00:47:35.898
they had.

00:47:37.039 --> 00:47:37.800
And she says,

00:47:38.119 --> 00:47:39.942
let's put the permaculture over there.

00:47:42.016 --> 00:47:42.577
Okay, Justin,

00:47:42.597 --> 00:47:44.059
that statement tells me that you don't

00:47:44.099 --> 00:47:46.039
really understand how permaculture works.

00:47:46.681 --> 00:47:48.001
It's a design system.

00:47:48.661 --> 00:47:51.744
It's about creating a resilient,

00:47:52.284 --> 00:47:56.447
interconnected system rather than

00:47:56.608 --> 00:47:58.429
individual plants or anything like that.

00:47:59.329 --> 00:48:01.731
Give you a case in point.

00:48:01.771 --> 00:48:03.293
We may talk about a peach tree out

00:48:03.333 --> 00:48:05.255
there, but really,

00:48:05.295 --> 00:48:06.675
if you look at it within the whole

00:48:06.715 --> 00:48:08.077
permaculture design system,

00:48:08.539 --> 00:48:09.780
That peach tree, first of all,

00:48:09.800 --> 00:48:11.503
we've talked about zoning so many times on

00:48:11.543 --> 00:48:11.963
this show.

00:48:12.423 --> 00:48:13.985
I quit talking about it because we've done

00:48:14.025 --> 00:48:15.086
so many shows about it.

00:48:15.206 --> 00:48:15.588
Why?

00:48:16.128 --> 00:48:18.170
Because zoning is one of those things that

00:48:18.271 --> 00:48:20.713
seems to be universal in terms of the

00:48:20.753 --> 00:48:21.934
mistakes that people make.

00:48:22.516 --> 00:48:23.838
They just put this over here,

00:48:23.898 --> 00:48:24.699
put this over there,

00:48:24.719 --> 00:48:25.780
but they don't think about the

00:48:25.800 --> 00:48:27.422
interactions that all these things need to

00:48:27.461 --> 00:48:27.802
have.

00:48:28.686 --> 00:48:30.067
So going back to the peach tree,

00:48:30.626 --> 00:48:32.288
what's around that peach tree is a guild.

00:48:33.027 --> 00:48:34.588
And it's a collection of other plants that

00:48:34.648 --> 00:48:36.329
not only support that peach tree,

00:48:36.809 --> 00:48:37.789
but in a perfect world,

00:48:37.809 --> 00:48:39.510
that peach tree is supporting those

00:48:39.530 --> 00:48:39.972
plants.

00:48:40.652 --> 00:48:43.452
So in my particular food forest or

00:48:43.532 --> 00:48:47.375
orchard, let's call it a peach guild.

00:48:48.335 --> 00:48:49.235
So we got a peach tree in the

00:48:49.255 --> 00:48:49.496
center.

00:48:50.617 --> 00:48:50.817
Now,

00:48:52.264 --> 00:48:54.344
got seven layers of a forest this peach

00:48:54.385 --> 00:48:56.465
is mature enough that i'm using something

00:48:56.525 --> 00:49:00.007
vining let's say um like you know climbing

00:49:00.047 --> 00:49:01.726
yam i can put that in there at

00:49:01.746 --> 00:49:03.666
the base of this tree use a tree

00:49:03.706 --> 00:49:05.467
as a substrate for it to grow okay

00:49:05.487 --> 00:49:07.967
so i got my vine layer okay around

00:49:08.007 --> 00:49:10.648
that peach i got daffodils it's going to

00:49:10.668 --> 00:49:12.009
help keep away some of the pests that

00:49:12.028 --> 00:49:15.849
are underground and above ground and if

00:49:15.889 --> 00:49:17.090
planted between there is going to be

00:49:17.130 --> 00:49:17.550
garlic

00:49:18.596 --> 00:49:19.797
Okay, I use it every day.

00:49:19.836 --> 00:49:20.717
Why wouldn't I do that?

00:49:20.838 --> 00:49:21.117
Plus,

00:49:21.157 --> 00:49:22.798
it's really medicinal for all the other

00:49:22.818 --> 00:49:23.820
things that are going out there.

00:49:24.639 --> 00:49:26.501
Okay, you know,

00:49:26.762 --> 00:49:27.762
let's talk about our herbs.

00:49:28.786 --> 00:49:29.686
We got rosemary, thyme,

00:49:29.706 --> 00:49:31.148
and oregano around every single tree,

00:49:31.608 --> 00:49:32.768
not only for our pollinators,

00:49:32.789 --> 00:49:33.570
but also for us.

00:49:33.750 --> 00:49:36.731
I harvest it every single day.

00:49:37.132 --> 00:49:38.773
And it goes into the bone broth and

00:49:38.813 --> 00:49:41.335
my salad every single day.

00:49:41.996 --> 00:49:43.137
There's not a day I don't do it.

00:49:43.498 --> 00:49:43.737
Well,

00:49:43.898 --> 00:49:45.199
I might forget every once in a while

00:49:45.358 --> 00:49:46.940
if I have other obligations that day.

00:49:47.721 --> 00:49:50.302
Also, you know, maybe six, seven,

00:49:50.402 --> 00:49:52.224
maybe eight feet away from that tree in

00:49:52.284 --> 00:49:53.224
opposite corners are going to be

00:49:53.264 --> 00:49:53.806
blueberries.

00:49:54.505 --> 00:49:55.007
Why wouldn't I?

00:49:55.967 --> 00:49:56.887
It's part of the layers.

00:49:57.487 --> 00:49:58.570
And then on the catty corner,

00:49:58.889 --> 00:50:00.150
if I got space to do it,

00:50:00.731 --> 00:50:03.094
catty corner from that is going to be

00:50:03.233 --> 00:50:05.817
a nitrogen fixing shrub that also produces

00:50:05.856 --> 00:50:06.077
food.

00:50:06.777 --> 00:50:08.079
Maybe Siberian pea shrub.

00:50:09.000 --> 00:50:10.260
It could be something that your animals

00:50:10.360 --> 00:50:10.481
eat.

00:50:10.561 --> 00:50:11.402
It doesn't even matter.

00:50:12.182 --> 00:50:13.603
But all these things are not done in

00:50:13.684 --> 00:50:14.224
isolation.

00:50:14.364 --> 00:50:15.405
And then think about it.

00:50:16.623 --> 00:50:18.385
It is zoned along zone two,

00:50:18.405 --> 00:50:19.586
which is along my driveway,

00:50:19.646 --> 00:50:20.947
which is a pretty long driveway,

00:50:21.509 --> 00:50:23.530
but I can interact as often as I

00:50:23.570 --> 00:50:23.931
need to.

00:50:24.050 --> 00:50:25.592
I can harvest from it right there from

00:50:26.092 --> 00:50:27.414
taking two steps away from my truck.

00:50:27.434 --> 00:50:28.414
I can go out there and harvest.

00:50:28.474 --> 00:50:29.295
I can maintenance.

00:50:29.335 --> 00:50:30.777
I can do whatever I need to prune.

00:50:30.797 --> 00:50:31.617
I can put it right there in the

00:50:31.657 --> 00:50:31.878
truck.

00:50:31.938 --> 00:50:34.460
It's all designed in such a way in

00:50:34.501 --> 00:50:36.902
which it all makes sense in terms of

00:50:36.943 --> 00:50:37.603
how I'm doing it.

00:50:39.047 --> 00:50:41.291
So as far as that bigger permaculture

00:50:41.331 --> 00:50:41.911
design,

00:50:42.612 --> 00:50:44.375
it's all part of a bigger cog on

00:50:44.394 --> 00:50:44.715
the wheel.

00:50:44.775 --> 00:50:46.717
So it's a design system.

00:50:46.737 --> 00:50:47.458
It's about, like I said,

00:50:47.478 --> 00:50:51.003
it's about creating interconnectedness and

00:50:51.043 --> 00:50:51.885
efficiency.

00:50:52.525 --> 00:50:53.628
That's why I have the shirt.

00:50:53.748 --> 00:50:54.628
Eric made it for me.

00:50:55.530 --> 00:50:57.271
where it says something along the line of

00:50:57.391 --> 00:51:00.891
you know addicted to simplicity or

00:51:01.052 --> 00:51:02.532
elegance that's what it says addicted to

00:51:02.612 --> 00:51:04.932
elegance i felt the need to create that

00:51:04.972 --> 00:51:07.052
shirt because so many people are addicted

00:51:07.072 --> 00:51:09.853
to unnecessary complexity and i see it in

00:51:09.893 --> 00:51:12.074
so many designs because you think it's

00:51:12.094 --> 00:51:13.554
going to be avant-garde or you want to

00:51:13.594 --> 00:51:14.896
do something weird or you think it might

00:51:14.916 --> 00:51:16.896
make you famous they're out here doing

00:51:17.115 --> 00:51:19.237
ridiculous designs and i hate to say it

00:51:19.257 --> 00:51:19.597
that way

00:51:20.782 --> 00:51:22.664
That are poorly thought out in terms of

00:51:22.744 --> 00:51:25.146
management and in terms of how it fits

00:51:25.206 --> 00:51:26.228
into a larger thing.

00:51:26.268 --> 00:51:29.072
That's exactly why you need to hire,

00:51:29.112 --> 00:51:30.974
if you don't know what you're doing or

00:51:30.994 --> 00:51:33.155
you need to think about these things in

00:51:33.195 --> 00:51:34.398
a more dispassionate way,

00:51:35.077 --> 00:51:38.481
hire a designer like William or Eric to

00:51:38.501 --> 00:51:39.784
come out there and look at your stuff

00:51:40.403 --> 00:51:41.545
because you may be too close to it.

00:51:42.759 --> 00:51:43.820
And then on that point,

00:51:43.840 --> 00:51:45.320
it also starts with observation.

00:51:45.960 --> 00:51:46.621
Bill Mollison,

00:51:47.262 --> 00:51:48.563
the creator of permaculture,

00:51:48.802 --> 00:51:51.204
Eric talked about him in his spot a

00:51:51.224 --> 00:51:52.864
moment ago.

00:51:52.945 --> 00:51:53.505
And Jeff Lawton,

00:51:53.525 --> 00:51:55.367
they also talk about the importance of

00:51:55.507 --> 00:51:56.206
observing.

00:51:56.226 --> 00:51:58.009
Before you put shovel to anything,

00:51:58.048 --> 00:52:00.170
you need to spend time observing where

00:52:00.190 --> 00:52:00.929
does the waterfall?

00:52:01.630 --> 00:52:02.871
Where do I have frost pockets?

00:52:03.411 --> 00:52:04.693
Where do I see the sunlight?

00:52:05.623 --> 00:52:07.143
got to understand the land the lay of

00:52:07.164 --> 00:52:08.264
the land you got to understand where the

00:52:08.304 --> 00:52:10.344
water goes you got to understand what the

00:52:10.385 --> 00:52:12.525
wildlife corridors are you got to

00:52:12.565 --> 00:52:14.146
understand all that stuff before you go

00:52:14.186 --> 00:52:16.586
designing anything out on that property

00:52:17.467 --> 00:52:18.748
and you got to if you don't do

00:52:18.788 --> 00:52:19.927
that folks that's where you have some

00:52:20.047 --> 00:52:21.548
major major problems where you wind up

00:52:21.588 --> 00:52:23.349
putting a swale where there never should

00:52:23.369 --> 00:52:25.829
have been one swales for the most part

00:52:25.889 --> 00:52:28.030
don't make sense where i live in western

00:52:28.070 --> 00:52:29.351
north carolina which is a temperate

00:52:29.391 --> 00:52:29.972
rainforest

00:52:30.574 --> 00:52:31.394
They don't make sense.

00:52:32.076 --> 00:52:33.297
Certainly not in the terrain I'm in.

00:52:33.336 --> 00:52:33.456
Now,

00:52:33.496 --> 00:52:35.137
there are places where it does make sense,

00:52:35.157 --> 00:52:36.038
and I might go ahead and put a

00:52:36.077 --> 00:52:36.938
swale or two in there.

00:52:37.518 --> 00:52:40.219
Just more as a demonstration purpose than

00:52:40.280 --> 00:52:40.880
anything else.

00:52:41.380 --> 00:52:42.262
But by and large,

00:52:42.681 --> 00:52:43.742
you got to take the right dog to

00:52:43.782 --> 00:52:44.063
the hunt,

00:52:44.123 --> 00:52:45.744
and it all begins with observation.

00:52:46.744 --> 00:52:48.605
Here's another one that I am big on,

00:52:48.864 --> 00:52:52.266
and let me take a drink here.

00:52:52.306 --> 00:52:53.768
All right.

00:52:53.827 --> 00:52:55.309
So this is a big one, y'all.

00:52:56.896 --> 00:52:58.878
Enormous and I don't think people think

00:52:58.898 --> 00:53:00.737
about it enough everything needs to have

00:53:00.797 --> 00:53:01.639
multiple functions.

00:53:01.798 --> 00:53:05.940
I mean multiple functions so Okay,

00:53:06.740 --> 00:53:09.702
take for example a Tree it's going to

00:53:09.722 --> 00:53:12.202
provide shade obviously It's going to

00:53:12.222 --> 00:53:14.463
provide a habitat not only for birds But

00:53:14.483 --> 00:53:16.704
everything else is going to provide mulch

00:53:16.884 --> 00:53:19.405
when the time is right and erosion control

00:53:19.565 --> 00:53:21.206
all at the same time in addition to

00:53:21.286 --> 00:53:21.746
all that is

00:53:22.543 --> 00:53:23.422
Depending on the tree,

00:53:23.523 --> 00:53:24.523
if it's a nitrogen fixture,

00:53:24.543 --> 00:53:25.184
when I prune it,

00:53:25.244 --> 00:53:26.085
who do you think is going to get

00:53:26.105 --> 00:53:26.784
all that stuff?

00:53:27.425 --> 00:53:28.925
The sheep that are right alongside there,

00:53:28.965 --> 00:53:30.927
they will absolutely positively strip it.

00:53:31.588 --> 00:53:33.608
And if it's situated in a certain way,

00:53:33.628 --> 00:53:34.789
it makes it ten times easier.

00:53:35.548 --> 00:53:35.949
Honestly,

00:53:36.010 --> 00:53:37.369
anything I prune that gets thrown over to

00:53:37.389 --> 00:53:37.791
the sheep,

00:53:38.311 --> 00:53:39.371
they will sit there and take all the

00:53:39.411 --> 00:53:40.731
leaves off of it,

00:53:40.751 --> 00:53:41.833
which is a benefit to them.

00:53:42.293 --> 00:53:43.632
But they're also getting shade out of the

00:53:43.672 --> 00:53:44.434
deal as well.

00:53:44.454 --> 00:53:45.534
That could be for your chickens or

00:53:45.554 --> 00:53:46.195
whatever else.

00:53:46.835 --> 00:53:49.077
So everything needs to have multiple

00:53:49.117 --> 00:53:49.539
purposes.

00:53:49.679 --> 00:53:50.820
I don't care what that thing is.

00:53:51.061 --> 00:53:51.942
It needs to have multiple.

00:53:52.181 --> 00:53:53.804
That's why I used to love Alton Brown's

00:53:53.824 --> 00:53:54.184
show.

00:53:54.644 --> 00:53:56.106
Goody so much.

00:53:56.208 --> 00:53:57.009
I love that show.

00:53:57.068 --> 00:53:57.690
William loved it.

00:53:57.769 --> 00:53:59.311
I mean, you know, when he was,

00:53:59.532 --> 00:54:00.132
when he was little,

00:54:00.822 --> 00:54:02.804
Because not just all the gadgets and stuff

00:54:02.884 --> 00:54:04.385
is where he was using multiple,

00:54:04.766 --> 00:54:06.226
he was using the calendar for ten

00:54:06.246 --> 00:54:06.967
different things.

00:54:07.869 --> 00:54:09.250
And so you need to think about it

00:54:09.369 --> 00:54:11.050
that same way when it comes to your,

00:54:11.512 --> 00:54:12.952
your permaculture systems out there.

00:54:13.793 --> 00:54:14.835
Here's another big one here.

00:54:15.175 --> 00:54:16.757
And we're kind of known for it is

00:54:16.777 --> 00:54:20.079
that everything's, you know,

00:54:21.460 --> 00:54:22.181
when I say everything,

00:54:22.222 --> 00:54:24.643
I'm talking about your waste, waste.

00:54:26.074 --> 00:54:27.695
It should be viewed as a resource.

00:54:27.755 --> 00:54:28.615
It shouldn't be waste.

00:54:29.396 --> 00:54:31.456
Even in the best permaculture system,

00:54:32.056 --> 00:54:33.597
even the stuff coming out of your body.

00:54:34.137 --> 00:54:35.818
Folks, I try not to waste my urine.

00:54:36.077 --> 00:54:36.777
I collect it all.

00:54:37.438 --> 00:54:38.659
The stuff that comes out the other end,

00:54:38.679 --> 00:54:39.739
could it be made into something?

00:54:39.898 --> 00:54:40.400
Absolutely.

00:54:40.420 --> 00:54:41.280
It could be human ore.

00:54:41.990 --> 00:54:43.952
That requires a redesign of the house that

00:54:43.992 --> 00:54:45.172
I bought that was already here.

00:54:45.974 --> 00:54:47.235
So not going to do that.

00:54:47.755 --> 00:54:49.615
But why are we flushing really,

00:54:49.655 --> 00:54:50.456
really good water?

00:54:50.996 --> 00:54:51.958
Then let's say it was used in the

00:54:52.018 --> 00:54:52.257
sink.

00:54:52.318 --> 00:54:53.478
Let's say it was used in the tub.

00:54:53.498 --> 00:54:55.599
Let's say it was used in your kitchen.

00:54:56.280 --> 00:54:58.402
Why is all that water going into the

00:54:58.442 --> 00:55:00.043
same place that the toilet water goes?

00:55:00.724 --> 00:55:02.445
Couldn't that water be reused several

00:55:02.485 --> 00:55:02.905
times?

00:55:03.646 --> 00:55:04.447
I dare say it could,

00:55:04.487 --> 00:55:05.867
just like an earthship design,

00:55:06.407 --> 00:55:08.650
where that water is used four times from

00:55:08.670 --> 00:55:10.291
the time it's collected before it goes

00:55:10.411 --> 00:55:10.550
out.

00:55:11.532 --> 00:55:13.034
I mean, why not do that?

00:55:13.635 --> 00:55:15.860
We are absolutely wasteful on so many

00:55:15.880 --> 00:55:16.340
different ways.

00:55:16.981 --> 00:55:17.983
I'm talking leaves.

00:55:18.985 --> 00:55:20.226
Everybody's putting them out on the curb.

00:55:20.246 --> 00:55:21.487
That's a waste system to them.

00:55:21.507 --> 00:55:22.650
But for me, that's compost.

00:55:23.393 --> 00:55:24.173
Food scraps,

00:55:24.773 --> 00:55:25.974
people are throwing it in the trash.

00:55:26.034 --> 00:55:26.355
Why?

00:55:26.414 --> 00:55:26.614
I mean,

00:55:26.695 --> 00:55:28.737
rainwater is coming off the side of the

00:55:28.757 --> 00:55:28.976
house.

00:55:29.036 --> 00:55:30.637
I know a guy just got time in

00:55:30.697 --> 00:55:31.057
prison.

00:55:31.338 --> 00:55:33.159
I want to say it was in one

00:55:33.199 --> 00:55:33.760
of the western,

00:55:33.800 --> 00:55:35.621
northwestern states for collecting

00:55:35.681 --> 00:55:36.121
rainwater.

00:55:36.161 --> 00:55:37.483
In most places, a lot of places,

00:55:37.503 --> 00:55:38.322
you can still do that.

00:55:38.864 --> 00:55:39.244
And in fact,

00:55:39.264 --> 00:55:40.804
you can still do it if you're a

00:55:40.824 --> 00:55:42.365
little sneaky about it like I would tend

00:55:42.385 --> 00:55:42.666
to be.

00:55:43.447 --> 00:55:46.748
But anyway, use all of those things.

00:55:46.789 --> 00:55:48.250
The chicken tractor on steroids,

00:55:48.269 --> 00:55:49.170
what do you think that is?

00:55:50.099 --> 00:55:52.141
That is absolutely using a waste stream

00:55:52.181 --> 00:55:53.503
that would ordinarily end up in a

00:55:53.563 --> 00:55:54.262
landfill.

00:55:54.884 --> 00:55:55.664
These are organic,

00:55:55.884 --> 00:55:58.907
good wastes that I'm repurposing to fatten

00:55:58.947 --> 00:56:00.128
up pigs and chickens.

00:56:00.788 --> 00:56:03.070
So much so that all of the layers

00:56:03.590 --> 00:56:05.451
and all of the meat birds we've raised

00:56:06.231 --> 00:56:07.193
is a hundred percent free.

00:56:07.913 --> 00:56:09.775
And our pigs turned out to be twenty

00:56:09.855 --> 00:56:12.836
one cents a pound by using these methods.

00:56:13.557 --> 00:56:13.978
So, yeah,

00:56:14.038 --> 00:56:15.478
you don't have to pay a fortune out

00:56:15.518 --> 00:56:15.759
here.

00:56:16.159 --> 00:56:17.219
You just got to use some of the

00:56:17.480 --> 00:56:18.961
dogs we've taken to the hunt before.

00:56:19.847 --> 00:56:21.367
And just remember, nature is a teacher.

00:56:22.309 --> 00:56:23.530
So you want to go out there to

00:56:23.570 --> 00:56:24.510
forests, wetlands,

00:56:24.570 --> 00:56:26.893
natural ecosystems that are out there.

00:56:26.932 --> 00:56:28.894
We call them zone five in permaculture.

00:56:29.594 --> 00:56:30.335
No matter where you are,

00:56:30.356 --> 00:56:31.257
you want to leave a little bit of

00:56:31.297 --> 00:56:32.717
it wild or you want to find your

00:56:32.737 --> 00:56:34.478
way and escape into the wild,

00:56:34.539 --> 00:56:36.280
not only to escape a lot of the

00:56:36.400 --> 00:56:37.242
EMF out there,

00:56:37.922 --> 00:56:40.804
but also to go into nature and say,

00:56:40.844 --> 00:56:41.065
look,

00:56:42.166 --> 00:56:43.306
I want to see how you're doing it.

00:56:43.646 --> 00:56:44.688
And then I want to copy it on

00:56:44.728 --> 00:56:45.389
my own place.

00:56:46.148 --> 00:56:47.931
That's a really good way to go about

00:56:47.971 --> 00:56:48.030
it.

00:56:49.112 --> 00:56:50.795
So just remember also, people,

00:56:50.994 --> 00:56:52.577
you and me and everybody else is also

00:56:52.637 --> 00:56:53.677
part of that ecosystem,

00:56:53.737 --> 00:56:56.099
despite a lot of these weirdos out here

00:56:56.621 --> 00:56:58.101
saying that we ought to drop our

00:56:58.161 --> 00:57:00.585
population because we are overpopulated.

00:57:01.286 --> 00:57:01.545
Folks,

00:57:01.666 --> 00:57:02.947
I think somebody did the math on it

00:57:02.967 --> 00:57:03.407
a little while.

00:57:03.447 --> 00:57:05.150
I think the entire population of the world

00:57:05.170 --> 00:57:06.630
could fit into Jacksonville, Florida.

00:57:07.592 --> 00:57:09.916
I mean, yeah, that's, you know,

00:57:10.036 --> 00:57:10.556
eight billion,

00:57:10.577 --> 00:57:11.798
depending on whether or not you believe

00:57:11.840 --> 00:57:12.400
their numbers.

00:57:13.561 --> 00:57:14.965
No, it's not any of that.

00:57:15.105 --> 00:57:17.528
It's just we kind of write ourselves out

00:57:17.568 --> 00:57:18.670
of the system.

00:57:19.152 --> 00:57:20.012
We shouldn't be doing that.

00:57:20.353 --> 00:57:20.914
We're part of it.

00:57:21.775 --> 00:57:21.934
I mean,

00:57:21.974 --> 00:57:23.916
permaculture includes designing your

00:57:23.956 --> 00:57:24.476
homes,

00:57:25.155 --> 00:57:27.297
how those homes interact with your

00:57:27.356 --> 00:57:29.557
landscape around there, the communities,

00:57:29.597 --> 00:57:31.318
the daily routes that you have out there.

00:57:32.018 --> 00:57:33.858
We are part of all of this.

00:57:34.438 --> 00:57:35.760
So you got to write yourself into it.

00:57:36.139 --> 00:57:37.599
Let's say your driveway,

00:57:37.619 --> 00:57:38.880
from your driveway to your house.

00:57:39.476 --> 00:57:40.637
Maybe you want to put an herb garden

00:57:40.657 --> 00:57:41.978
in there because you use it every day.

00:57:42.298 --> 00:57:43.398
And then as you're getting off work,

00:57:43.418 --> 00:57:44.360
you're going inside, okay,

00:57:44.380 --> 00:57:45.519
maybe you want to pick some rosemary.

00:57:46.081 --> 00:57:47.521
Maybe you got some thyme, some oregano,

00:57:47.561 --> 00:57:49.001
some sage, whatever's out there.

00:57:49.483 --> 00:57:50.422
But it's on your way,

00:57:50.463 --> 00:57:52.103
so it forces you to interact with it.

00:57:52.284 --> 00:57:52.523
Why?

00:57:52.563 --> 00:57:53.364
Because you're part of it.

00:57:54.405 --> 00:57:55.865
You're part of that all together.

00:57:56.545 --> 00:57:59.407
And it also emphasizes resilience.

00:58:02.262 --> 00:58:03.625
in a way that I can't even begin

00:58:03.644 --> 00:58:05.927
to imagine, y'all, that I...

00:58:05.947 --> 00:58:06.927
You don't need to be perfect.

00:58:07.007 --> 00:58:08.090
You just need to be resilient.

00:58:08.710 --> 00:58:10.612
That's what permaculture is especially

00:58:10.632 --> 00:58:10.952
good at.

00:58:11.072 --> 00:58:13.735
We plan for mega disasters.

00:58:13.795 --> 00:58:15.657
We plan for all these things that are

00:58:15.737 --> 00:58:17.840
baked into the landscape as we work

00:58:17.860 --> 00:58:18.159
through it.

00:58:19.061 --> 00:58:19.242
So...

00:58:20.748 --> 00:58:21.807
At the end of the day, folks,

00:58:21.847 --> 00:58:23.168
this is why I wanted to get back

00:58:23.208 --> 00:58:24.869
to a little bit of, you know,

00:58:24.989 --> 00:58:25.949
here as of late,

00:58:25.969 --> 00:58:27.690
we haven't really talked a whole lot about

00:58:27.809 --> 00:58:29.050
permaculture specifically,

00:58:29.690 --> 00:58:30.931
but I wanted to get back to talking

00:58:30.951 --> 00:58:32.791
about that because people think that it's

00:58:32.811 --> 00:58:33.690
just an isolated thing,

00:58:33.731 --> 00:58:34.931
that it's in your garden.

00:58:35.672 --> 00:58:37.112
No, it's in your house.

00:58:37.512 --> 00:58:37.731
Folks,

00:58:37.771 --> 00:58:40.092
permaculture is in my business design,

00:58:40.913 --> 00:58:41.213
okay?

00:58:41.313 --> 00:58:42.693
If I was talking to Jack Spierko,

00:58:43.034 --> 00:58:45.574
he'd probably echo the fact that I treat

00:58:45.614 --> 00:58:46.755
the way we make money

00:58:47.733 --> 00:58:48.494
in our family,

00:58:49.894 --> 00:58:51.175
as I would a permaculture system,

00:58:51.355 --> 00:58:52.556
just like I've taught you before,

00:58:53.135 --> 00:58:55.456
that you don't just want one cultivar of,

00:58:55.516 --> 00:58:55.836
let's say,

00:58:55.856 --> 00:58:57.556
an apple or peach or pear or whatever

00:58:57.637 --> 00:58:57.856
else.

00:58:58.538 --> 00:59:00.458
Because let's say you have a disaster come

00:59:00.498 --> 00:59:00.617
up.

00:59:00.697 --> 00:59:01.518
Well, you're screwed.

00:59:01.557 --> 00:59:02.639
You don't get peaches that year.

00:59:02.659 --> 00:59:03.318
You don't get pears.

00:59:03.338 --> 00:59:04.018
You don't get apples.

00:59:04.039 --> 00:59:05.179
You don't get anything that year.

00:59:05.760 --> 00:59:06.880
But if I pick a mid,

00:59:07.179 --> 00:59:09.061
early and late of everything,

00:59:09.501 --> 00:59:10.942
I always got to harvest no matter what

00:59:10.981 --> 00:59:11.501
goes down.

00:59:12.382 --> 00:59:12.961
Well,

00:59:13.001 --> 00:59:14.063
do you think it might be wise to

00:59:14.083 --> 00:59:15.262
run your businesses that way?

00:59:16.197 --> 00:59:17.579
Because that's exactly the way we do it

00:59:17.619 --> 00:59:17.818
here.

00:59:18.500 --> 00:59:20.362
We have multiple streams of income.

00:59:20.481 --> 00:59:21.463
None of them are, you know,

00:59:21.483 --> 00:59:23.123
we're not the Rockefellers by any means,

00:59:23.724 --> 00:59:25.346
but we live such a low consumption

00:59:25.385 --> 00:59:27.307
lifestyle that we can live on any one

00:59:27.347 --> 00:59:28.208
of those incomes.

00:59:28.869 --> 00:59:29.588
You see what I'm saying?

00:59:30.190 --> 00:59:31.451
That's the kind of resilience that

00:59:31.490 --> 00:59:33.253
permaculture makes in our business

00:59:33.293 --> 00:59:35.954
decisions and how you organize your house.

00:59:37.030 --> 00:59:37.992
how you do everything.

00:59:38.492 --> 00:59:39.032
So yeah,

00:59:39.172 --> 00:59:40.652
even in the way you conduct business.

00:59:41.293 --> 00:59:43.275
So let's say I have a low consumption.

00:59:43.735 --> 00:59:45.315
I hate to say low consumption lifestyle

00:59:45.356 --> 00:59:48.018
because it makes people think that it's

00:59:48.057 --> 00:59:49.038
not a rich lifestyle.

00:59:49.097 --> 00:59:50.478
I don't agree with that at all.

00:59:51.079 --> 00:59:52.400
I have a richer lifestyle than most

00:59:52.460 --> 00:59:53.420
billionaires out there.

00:59:53.840 --> 00:59:55.202
And I think a lot of you do

00:59:55.242 --> 00:59:55.822
too as well.

00:59:56.742 --> 00:59:59.644
I know one billionaire and I know several

00:59:59.704 --> 01:00:00.465
millionaires.

01:00:01.246 --> 01:00:03.867
And in every single case and every metric

01:00:04.186 --> 01:00:04.788
I'm aware of,

01:00:05.916 --> 01:00:07.235
i live a much richer life than any

01:00:07.275 --> 01:00:09.056
of them in fact i would say all

01:00:09.097 --> 01:00:11.496
of them combined except for the

01:00:11.536 --> 01:00:13.157
billionaire you know he actually he's got

01:00:13.197 --> 01:00:14.838
his stuff together i'd say the

01:00:14.878 --> 01:00:16.599
millionaires are the ones who are you know

01:00:16.759 --> 01:00:18.298
out of whack that are definitely got their

01:00:18.318 --> 01:00:20.438
stuff out of whack multi-millionaires and

01:00:20.478 --> 01:00:23.719
stuff like that but the point being is

01:00:23.739 --> 01:00:25.981
that in our business construct it's set up

01:00:26.021 --> 01:00:27.201
just like a permaculture system

01:00:28.291 --> 01:00:29.331
You don't overspend.

01:00:29.371 --> 01:00:30.672
You don't overharvest.

01:00:31.353 --> 01:00:32.273
You don't take all the money.

01:00:32.313 --> 01:00:36.335
You got maybe six sources of income,

01:00:37.617 --> 01:00:39.998
but you don't spend all of it.

01:00:40.998 --> 01:00:41.219
I mean,

01:00:41.280 --> 01:00:42.561
all the money that we put out there

01:00:42.581 --> 01:00:44.302
to rescue kids caught up in child sex

01:00:44.322 --> 01:00:44.802
trafficking,

01:00:45.302 --> 01:00:46.543
where do you think that money comes from?

01:00:47.284 --> 01:00:47.483
I mean...

01:00:48.331 --> 01:00:49.510
A lot of the other things that we

01:00:49.550 --> 01:00:51.371
do that we don't talk about because Jesus

01:00:51.391 --> 01:00:52.711
said, you know, that's your reward.

01:00:53.452 --> 01:00:54.932
I'm just using that as an example.

01:00:55.592 --> 01:00:56.994
So if I got all my basic needs

01:00:57.074 --> 01:00:57.914
met, which I do,

01:00:58.153 --> 01:00:59.934
and the Lord has provided and he continues

01:00:59.954 --> 01:01:02.456
to provide for me abundantly in a way

01:01:02.476 --> 01:01:04.715
that I can't even begin to describe.

01:01:05.617 --> 01:01:08.177
The most important things in my life,

01:01:08.257 --> 01:01:09.538
I used to think differently when I was

01:01:09.597 --> 01:01:10.157
much younger.

01:01:10.858 --> 01:01:13.378
And then after chasing that rat race like

01:01:13.418 --> 01:01:14.380
so many other people out there,

01:01:14.400 --> 01:01:15.219
I realized, you know what?

01:01:16.081 --> 01:01:17.442
Ain't none of this stuff making me happy.

01:01:17.461 --> 01:01:18.483
I'm making a pile of money.

01:01:18.543 --> 01:01:19.965
So as Michelle, we're doing great.

01:01:20.644 --> 01:01:22.927
Got all the trappings that everybody says

01:01:22.947 --> 01:01:24.489
you should have and then got rid of

01:01:24.568 --> 01:01:27.070
all of it because it is all vanity.

01:01:27.711 --> 01:01:28.431
It really is.

01:01:29.273 --> 01:01:30.594
So that's why I say I live a

01:01:30.653 --> 01:01:31.534
richer lifestyle.

01:01:32.036 --> 01:01:33.717
I walk around naked half the day because

01:01:33.777 --> 01:01:35.539
I can here in my isolation.

01:01:36.340 --> 01:01:38.581
I can go out here, pick fruit,

01:01:39.471 --> 01:01:40.331
pick vegetables,

01:01:40.891 --> 01:01:42.753
grow things that I couldn't even hope to

01:01:42.793 --> 01:01:42.972
buy.

01:01:43.012 --> 01:01:45.554
I grow animals that you can't hope to

01:01:45.594 --> 01:01:46.295
buy in a store.

01:01:46.335 --> 01:01:47.896
You can't even find it at most farmer's

01:01:47.936 --> 01:01:49.356
markets, not even here in Asheville.

01:01:51.097 --> 01:01:53.659
And I got a family that,

01:01:55.360 --> 01:01:56.541
the fact that I'm able to work with

01:01:56.601 --> 01:01:58.523
my wife all day long, y'all,

01:01:58.543 --> 01:01:59.943
do you know how rich that is?

01:02:01.605 --> 01:02:02.764
I really want you to think about this.

01:02:03.505 --> 01:02:04.947
Most of us go away to a job

01:02:04.987 --> 01:02:07.307
that we may not love.

01:02:07.708 --> 01:02:08.548
Maybe you like it.

01:02:10.293 --> 01:02:11.592
But most of us go to a job

01:02:11.693 --> 01:02:12.893
and they pay you enough to keep you

01:02:12.914 --> 01:02:14.233
from quitting and you do enough to keep

01:02:14.253 --> 01:02:15.614
from getting fired in most cases.

01:02:16.094 --> 01:02:16.914
Been there, done that,

01:02:16.954 --> 01:02:18.014
just like so many out there.

01:02:19.414 --> 01:02:21.396
But you go away to this job and

01:02:21.416 --> 01:02:23.576
you give total strangers the best you have

01:02:23.596 --> 01:02:25.597
to offer from the time you woke up

01:02:26.637 --> 01:02:27.936
and then the time it took you to

01:02:27.956 --> 01:02:29.717
get to work, you do your job,

01:02:30.077 --> 01:02:31.717
you come home and you're wiped out.

01:02:31.858 --> 01:02:33.057
Even if it was an office job,

01:02:33.077 --> 01:02:34.338
you're probably even more wiped out.

01:02:35.219 --> 01:02:37.159
And then guess who gets what's left over?

01:02:38.159 --> 01:02:39.139
The people you love most.

01:02:40.597 --> 01:02:42.018
So do you think it's a benefit and

01:02:42.039 --> 01:02:43.219
a blessing to me to be able to

01:02:43.259 --> 01:02:44.340
work with my wife every day?

01:02:44.380 --> 01:02:44.559
Well,

01:02:44.579 --> 01:02:46.061
she might have different thoughts about

01:02:46.081 --> 01:02:46.800
that sometimes.

01:02:47.541 --> 01:02:48.541
But by and large,

01:02:49.242 --> 01:02:50.362
to be able to wake up with my

01:02:50.402 --> 01:02:52.304
wife, to work with her, you know,

01:02:52.525 --> 01:02:53.304
nine times out of ten,

01:02:53.324 --> 01:02:54.125
we're not necessarily,

01:02:54.164 --> 01:02:55.505
we work together doing the chores in the

01:02:55.545 --> 01:02:56.666
morning and then we kind of split up

01:02:56.706 --> 01:02:58.588
and then divide and conquer on the things

01:02:58.608 --> 01:02:58.987
every day.

01:02:59.628 --> 01:03:01.088
But I'm giving her the best I got.

01:03:01.769 --> 01:03:03.951
I'm not going away to a work, giving,

01:03:04.471 --> 01:03:05.572
you know, working, you know,

01:03:06.291 --> 01:03:07.994
i'm corporate sharecropping or whatever

01:03:08.014 --> 01:03:09.074
the case may be and then i come

01:03:09.094 --> 01:03:11.757
home and give my family what's left i'm

01:03:11.797 --> 01:03:14.420
not doing that yeah i think that's far

01:03:14.460 --> 01:03:15.842
richer than all the people that i know

01:03:15.862 --> 01:03:17.423
that are out there chasing that brass ring

01:03:18.144 --> 01:03:19.146
and i don't care if we were in

01:03:19.206 --> 01:03:21.407
a one-room shack and it asked me how

01:03:21.447 --> 01:03:22.730
i know because we did that that's how

01:03:22.750 --> 01:03:23.210
we started

01:03:24.695 --> 01:03:26.536
There was three adults and three dogs

01:03:26.597 --> 01:03:28.038
living in three hundred square feet for a

01:03:28.157 --> 01:03:29.039
long, long time.

01:03:30.079 --> 01:03:30.559
Long time.

01:03:30.938 --> 01:03:32.139
And I was perfectly content.

01:03:32.820 --> 01:03:33.541
Perfectly happy.

01:03:34.661 --> 01:03:36.101
And, you know,

01:03:36.382 --> 01:03:37.782
still happy with what I have right now.

01:03:38.836 --> 01:03:39.958
Like they say, if you're not happy,

01:03:40.277 --> 01:03:41.838
but it's all designed around that

01:03:41.858 --> 01:03:42.818
permaculture principle,

01:03:43.400 --> 01:03:45.240
which to a certain extent goes right back,

01:03:45.280 --> 01:03:46.961
like Paul said, be content in all things.

01:03:47.581 --> 01:03:49.023
And that's what I've learned to do,

01:03:49.382 --> 01:03:50.744
or at least I'm learning to do.

01:03:50.884 --> 01:03:53.166
It's still a work in progress.

01:03:54.065 --> 01:03:55.487
But coming full circle with this whole

01:03:55.527 --> 01:03:56.086
thing, y'all,

01:03:56.947 --> 01:04:00.349
it is absolutely positively a profound

01:04:00.389 --> 01:04:02.190
value to model everything you have.

01:04:02.231 --> 01:04:03.612
If you're looking for a model to create,

01:04:04.793 --> 01:04:05.932
I talked about it like the other day

01:04:05.952 --> 01:04:06.532
with Spearco.

01:04:07.193 --> 01:04:07.873
Just take a hobby.

01:04:08.614 --> 01:04:10.014
I've talked about so many things out

01:04:10.034 --> 01:04:10.233
there,

01:04:10.313 --> 01:04:11.795
million-dollar ideas that somebody could

01:04:11.835 --> 01:04:12.315
run with.

01:04:12.675 --> 01:04:13.255
If you had a little bit,

01:04:13.394 --> 01:04:14.436
let's say you don't have that knowledge,

01:04:14.476 --> 01:04:15.175
go out there and get it.

01:04:15.735 --> 01:04:19.376
I never digged up a freaking ship before,

01:04:20.036 --> 01:04:21.496
but neither did the Hawley family.

01:04:22.637 --> 01:04:23.858
They didn't do that before.

01:04:24.458 --> 01:04:25.177
They went out there,

01:04:25.217 --> 01:04:26.358
just got together with the family,

01:04:26.498 --> 01:04:27.619
and dug this thing up.

01:04:28.952 --> 01:04:29.992
There's a whole lot of things that I

01:04:30.032 --> 01:04:30.393
never did.

01:04:30.472 --> 01:04:32.534
Nobody's ever done until you get out there

01:04:32.554 --> 01:04:32.914
and do it.

01:04:34.134 --> 01:04:35.434
And if it means,

01:04:35.474 --> 01:04:36.635
if you're just sick and tired of this

01:04:36.715 --> 01:04:39.976
nine to five, pray to the good Lord.

01:04:39.996 --> 01:04:40.956
But at the same time,

01:04:41.235 --> 01:04:42.856
I would also look at some permaculture

01:04:42.876 --> 01:04:44.717
solutions because they're out there.

01:04:45.378 --> 01:04:46.297
It's why you can be,

01:04:46.657 --> 01:04:48.057
you can't give from an empty well.

01:04:48.097 --> 01:04:49.838
But if I have these multiple streams of

01:04:49.918 --> 01:04:52.760
income and I need this little bit to

01:04:52.800 --> 01:04:53.820
be able to put the bread on my

01:04:53.860 --> 01:04:55.420
table to handle what,

01:04:55.559 --> 01:04:57.081
that means I got so much else.

01:04:58.307 --> 01:04:59.188
that I can give,

01:05:00.269 --> 01:05:01.891
whether it's in the products we give away,

01:05:01.992 --> 01:05:06.456
or whether it's in the time we're able

01:05:06.476 --> 01:05:07.896
to devote to somebody that might need the

01:05:07.936 --> 01:05:08.197
help.

01:05:09.057 --> 01:05:09.539
I mean, you know,

01:05:09.599 --> 01:05:10.860
capital comes in many forms.

01:05:11.420 --> 01:05:11.940
But honestly,

01:05:12.021 --> 01:05:13.322
this is why I wanted to talk about

01:05:13.362 --> 01:05:15.585
permaculture today, because it's more,

01:05:15.684 --> 01:05:17.146
everybody seems to think that it's in

01:05:17.226 --> 01:05:17.686
gardening.

01:05:17.827 --> 01:05:18.427
It is not.

01:05:18.568 --> 01:05:19.989
It's in every part of your life,

01:05:20.690 --> 01:05:22.030
especially if you use it in the best

01:05:22.090 --> 01:05:22.371
ways.

01:05:23.152 --> 01:05:23.472
All right,

01:05:23.552 --> 01:05:24.994
let's see if we get any more questions

01:05:25.054 --> 01:05:26.875
over here because I don't believe we do.

01:05:26.894 --> 01:05:27.876
And I want to thank everybody for the

01:05:27.916 --> 01:05:29.838
kind words, Linda, Donna,

01:05:30.418 --> 01:05:31.518
and all the others out there.

01:05:32.559 --> 01:05:35.702
I'm just being the quintessential me.

01:05:36.023 --> 01:05:37.623
I'm really trying to be more and more

01:05:37.664 --> 01:05:38.264
of that every day.

01:05:38.744 --> 01:05:39.425
And like I said,

01:05:39.465 --> 01:05:40.445
through that book of James,

01:05:40.485 --> 01:05:43.889
I'm trying to also speak less curses in

01:05:43.909 --> 01:05:45.070
the world if you know what I'm talking

01:05:45.090 --> 01:05:45.309
about.

01:05:46.351 --> 01:05:48.373
You know, you got so much in,

01:05:49.273 --> 01:05:50.375
like we were talking last night,

01:05:50.514 --> 01:05:51.635
life and death in the tongue.

01:05:52.429 --> 01:05:54.831
And I'm trying to not dance around the

01:05:54.871 --> 01:05:55.251
problems,

01:05:55.291 --> 01:05:56.673
but at the same time talk about the

01:05:56.693 --> 01:05:58.755
solutions and the things, the struggles,

01:05:58.775 --> 01:06:01.137
the problems that I'm having along the way

01:06:01.157 --> 01:06:02.519
because it might be a blessing to you

01:06:02.559 --> 01:06:03.820
to know that you're not the only one

01:06:03.900 --> 01:06:04.242
out there.

01:06:04.925 --> 01:06:05.686
There's so many of us.

01:06:05.706 --> 01:06:07.208
That's what's so beautiful about going to

01:06:07.228 --> 01:06:08.449
a lot of these festivals like I was

01:06:08.489 --> 01:06:08.909
talking about,

01:06:08.969 --> 01:06:10.190
Kentucky Sustainable Living.

01:06:11.150 --> 01:06:12.291
If you've never been to these things,

01:06:12.351 --> 01:06:13.132
folks,

01:06:13.731 --> 01:06:14.873
it's going to blow your mind how many

01:06:14.932 --> 01:06:16.673
people you relate with that you've never

01:06:16.693 --> 01:06:17.195
met before.

01:06:17.534 --> 01:06:18.735
You're probably going to find out that

01:06:18.755 --> 01:06:21.038
you're within an hour of somebody you

01:06:21.077 --> 01:06:22.958
didn't even know was right next to you

01:06:23.018 --> 01:06:23.960
when you feel isolated.

01:06:24.670 --> 01:06:27.713
Same thing when you go to the Mountain

01:06:27.733 --> 01:06:28.932
Readiness Festival next week.

01:06:29.353 --> 01:06:30.474
You'll go all the way over there,

01:06:30.494 --> 01:06:32.155
and you'll probably find somebody that's

01:06:32.195 --> 01:06:33.815
probably an hour away from you here.

01:06:34.376 --> 01:06:34.856
It's crazy.

01:06:34.896 --> 01:06:36.237
It happens every single time I go

01:06:36.277 --> 01:06:37.057
somewhere and I travel.

01:06:37.878 --> 01:06:39.619
But look, y'all,

01:06:40.059 --> 01:06:41.360
I know we live in crazy times,

01:06:41.981 --> 01:06:42.940
but we've got to stay rooted.

01:06:43.201 --> 01:06:44.422
Most importantly, I mean,

01:06:44.961 --> 01:06:46.402
if ever there was a time you were

01:06:46.422 --> 01:06:47.804
to get closer to the Lord, I mean,

01:06:48.023 --> 01:06:48.885
it is now.

01:06:49.797 --> 01:06:51.159
I can't even begin to tell you, folks,

01:06:51.981 --> 01:06:53.762
things are on such shaky ground right now,

01:06:53.782 --> 01:06:55.184
but you don't have to be fearful,

01:06:55.764 --> 01:06:58.148
especially when you know Jesus did it all

01:06:58.188 --> 01:06:59.068
right there at the cross.

01:06:59.849 --> 01:07:01.731
So I want to thank everybody for checking

01:07:01.791 --> 01:07:02.072
us out.

01:07:02.092 --> 01:07:04.074
I want to thank you for all your

01:07:04.094 --> 01:07:05.576
support, all the love,

01:07:05.916 --> 01:07:07.137
everything you give to us out there,

01:07:07.177 --> 01:07:07.398
y'all.

01:07:07.458 --> 01:07:10.300
Until next time, stay alert, stay alive.

01:07:11.764 --> 01:07:14.065
We've got the answers.

01:07:14.266 --> 01:07:15.668
All we need to do.

01:07:15.688 --> 01:07:17.690
Listen to the earth.

01:07:17.710 --> 01:07:18.791
They've got us.

01:07:35.855 --> 01:07:38.916
See you next time.
