this problem to make it so that I can
look you all in the eyes and uh and not
have an issue so we're gonna see so let
me know in the in the chat uh let me
know if uh if this is working out better
for us than than it has been previously

profile and I'll do that
gotta keep consistent podcast ever yeah
um it's a video that's a live stream
it's all the things anyway welcome to
prep talk live episode 46 I am Casey
with Cascadia dispatch joining me as
(02:05):
always uh is tough the urban prepper tup
what is up how are you how are things in
your world well uh I'm doing pretty good
uh keeping busy with things uh family
things about my family they're they're
having rough times right now there's a
stomach bug going around and it's uh
there's there's vomit all over the place
oh my God okay I'm sorry to hear that
it's that it's that it's that when you
(02:26):
were like we're going through tough
times there's a lot of things going on
in the world today when you're like oh
tough times okay like well if within our
household the other everyone's
everyone's barfing but me because I
don't I don't typically get sick so
because you don't touch her or love your
children or your family I understand you
know yeah so physical contact and love
of any kind is not something that
happens you know you keep that wall up
(02:49):
yeah the other morning we woke up and it
was like uh the scene from The Godfather
with the horse head but it was like bar
fall over and again so then I had to
clean that up a lot of dry cleaning
things and then uh and so and uh then my
son uh kid prepper came down with it
this morning and barf all over the place
had to clean that up and then my wife's
not feeling well you know
(03:09):
it's it's a vomity tough household but
definitely I don't I don't typically get
sick so it's like the Exorcist yeah yeah
it totally is so just all over the place
I got to test out I got to use my uh my
respirator math for some cleanup Duty so
that's good fantastic fantastic do you
get out the contractor bags well yeah I
(03:29):
I actually look forward to these moments
because I get to try out my like
biohazard perhaps so I got a module for
it so so when the when the bark starts
coming I get the mask on get the gloves
this is why when we when we go up this
summer and meet with the top family
um and we're going out to dinner because
what I can imagine is like hey kids
Let's do an experiment this chicken
(03:51):
seems
okay ish let's see what happens worst
case scenario is we get to use the [ __ ]
bags and the other supplies so I feel
like we'll go to a lovely we'll go to a
lovely family restaurant or something
like that where there are Health codes
and standards I found that my my
biohazard prepped like I have like the
cleaning supplies we're pretty good on
that we have the right equipment the PPE
(04:14):
but they're uh we need to stock up a
little bit more like some of the
Gatorade stuff some of the to get you
rehydrated and all that kind and uh and
like saltine crackers like your recovery
from being sick I think we're we uh we
don't really eat saltine crackers unless
you're sick so uh so I I did have some
of my preps and then I think I gave I
donated them to like a food bank and so
(04:35):
I need to figure out the right strategy
for for like vomiting vomit preps I
guess yeah yeah I think think so one of
the things that we found actually a lot
that kind of a side tangent
um
with the Gatorade thing so the
electrolytes and everything in the
Gatorade when the kids were little like
Gatorade was wonderful and everything
um we found on Amazon and I can put the
(04:56):
link somewhere I'll find a place to put
it they make uh essentially like
electrolyte drops that you can put into
anything and it just makes it but it's
there's no like sugar or flavoring or
anything it's just the like the
nutrients and the electrolytes and like
some water or something like that
um and so we have them they make them
like a little travel squeezy bottles but
(05:19):
then you can also get like the big so we
have like the gigantic like refills and
then the little ones and we take the
little ones like in the car and stuff
but I put it in my coffee in the morning
um because I usually like you know I get
up at like five and I work out and I
text top and I'm like here's what we're
talking about and then I forget to send
(05:39):
him the text because it's five in the
morning yeah
um and then in my coffee in the morning
I'll put electrolyte drops in my coffee
instead out of necessarily doing it like
in water which is probably not great but
I feel like I'm being efficient
um it actually makes coffee taste really
good nice I I never thought about uh
electrolytes in my coffee but that's
(05:59):
that's probably a good thing I think
part of like the Gatorade I think it's
also like a morale type uh oh yeah
booster it's like like uh uh it's a
comfort it's a comfort type thing too so
yeah yeah we also did it with like
Crystal Light so you take like Crystal
Light the little individual uh Crystal
Light serving things you can put
electrolytes in with that
(06:21):
um and then like Shake It Up in a water
bottle um the cool thing is that they
have they'll sell the individual packets
on Amazon for that as well yeah what's
the what's the baby stuff the the
Pedialyte I used to have a lot of that
on my preps but then once they're no
longer babies it was like I was just
kind of wasting money like because they
expire after a couple years type thing
(06:42):
or I think at least the packaging says
so so yeah but I need there's there's
some improvements I can make in my my
vomit kit but uh but for The Biohazard
part I'm pretty I'm good on that you
need to upgrade your vomit module yeah I
think well I need like the vomit
recovery module like the yeah so and I
don't know my wife when she's sick and
throwing up she likes to drink a pickle
(07:03):
juice that's her thing so we oh yeah and
so she makes her own cans her own
pickles and so she's been using up some
of the pickle juice from that so you
know I've heard and maybe it's a tick
tock thing also is it unnerving you that
I'm staring at you this much in this I'm
not used to that is anyone else unnerved
by that like is that just a whole
different thing like if we all of a
(07:25):
sudden we're going from black and white
to color or something it's a creepy that
creepy stare exactly exactly I I was
gonna when I did the thumbnail I was
gonna do like I had the little emoji
icon with the heart eyes and I was like
I'll put it on both of us and then but I
was like I don't know how tough's gonna
feel about that I feel that way but I
don't know the key's gonna feel that way
so I'm glad that I did someone's asking
(07:45):
about the color of the module so that's
a that's a white for it's uh like
sanitation type stuff or it's like a pea
green
it should be like a pea green
um yeah the vomit that we've had it's
more like a maroon kind of color it's a
maroon I feel like you need to see a
doctor immediately yeah no I think it's
because of that uh the Gatorade I think
(08:06):
maroon is a bad plan
um also
um we had uh the the painters who were
gonna paint the office decided that they
would just show up three hours late
um and they're apparently trying to
pressure wash the outside so can you
hear the engine the humming or anything
like that
I'm hoping during moments of Silence I
(08:28):
could hear something but I wouldn't have
noticed if you hadn't said anything okay
well then we'll just continue to talk
constantly it could easily be like a
like a fan of the background or
something exactly like showed up and I
was like you guys are supposed to be
here like two and a half hours ago we're
about we have like we have dozens of
people waiting to hear us talk I can't
have you know this I'm gonna look people
(08:49):
in the eye tonight this is the
president's live but I think the people
of people like the reruns too so we're
kind of like uh we're kind of like The
Flintstones or something where I yeah no
one wants a Christmas story
a good fella more like Good Fellas
they're good I don't think Goodfellas
was a big hit in the theaters but or
Shawshank Redemption uh but then when it
came when it went out to straight to
(09:10):
video or on TV then it became real
popular so that's what we are yeah we're
not necessarily appointment podcasting
but we are uh DVR podcasting yeah I
think so yeah everyone loves us on TiVo
I know we're supposed to talk about
Valentine's Day stuff but I I was I've
been meaning to talk to someone about uh
Yellowstone okay have you watched the
series I have not
(09:32):
I need you to watch the full season of
Yellowstone and then switch over to the
spin-off one called 1883 because I've
been uh of the preps that they have for
it's basically talking about like the uh
the kind of like Oregon Trail style
pioneering and things that and I was
watching it I'm just thinking from from
a proper point of view like on the the
(09:53):
preps that they had and what was most
valuable what wasn't and all those kind
of things so I it was just it made me
think of you but if you haven't watched
it we have some binge watching now was
there but was there a specific episode
where they discussed this or is it no no
they never discuss it I I always it's
just always an ever-present part of the
show well no it's when I when I when I
think prepper is like we're just kind of
(10:14):
dialed into prepping no matter what it
is so I could be watching Yellowstone
and and I'm thinking about pretty
oppress and stuff like that I wonder
what kind of cast iron pot that is or
yeah they're trying to not die on I'm
like the Oregon Trail and you're like no
let's see him die of dysentery I want to
know what sort of equipment I would need
to make sure that we could afford the
river for example yeah it was it was I
(10:36):
thought it was fascinating like the I'm
looking at what what they're cooking for
this is the 1883 one because that's more
like the pioneering stuff but uh they
had I like the little TP stands for the
uh I I don't know if it's a lodge uh
cast iron cook set but it kind of looked
like it but then I was I was like I
wonder what meals that they're doing for
that because I think that that maybe I
should have that let's talk about better
(10:56):
in my prep so uh because they were doing
various stews and things and so and I
don't know and I like the shovels I was
eyeballing the shovels that they use in
that show and trying to figure out if I
know this is my shovel situation what
are the okay so but is it the new is it
the newer equipment shovels or is it old
because my understanding is
the show is actually set a while ago and
(11:19):
then the prequel is set even further
Beyond no it's it's kind of it's pretty
fascinating because and I Know It has
nothing do the Fantastic what kind of
does profound because I'll get back to
that later
tell me how this show relates to your
love life
I will I definitely will
no the show Yellowstone is in modern
times but it's like the uh the stuff
(11:41):
that goes on it's out of the Wilderness
and stuff and so they kind of live by a
different law but then so there's five
seasons of that one but they also have
some prequels and a prequel to that so
they have like a 1920s something
Yellowstone like what happened during
those 20s basically at that same
location that they're at and then like
the 1883 one is like how they got to
that particular location where all these
(12:02):
all the drama and stuff happens but uh
so there's it's pretty unique in that
way because uh and they're all the
episodes are really good and but for
like a prepper if you have a proper
mindset like all the stuff from 1883 is
super fascinating I think so oh wow but
okay but now now tying this back into
Valentine's Day yeah uh so if anyone
enjoying the car wash that I'm in right
(12:23):
now yeah I like it I like it okay I feel
like like is it is it coming through in
the audience like yeah like this is
where straight through
through like like I'm imagining that
your your stage back you're like in a
semi truck and you're driving down the
road and I just hear all this stuff
(12:49):
we actually have a topic that made sense
yeah you're looking at the camera I had
the camera
the camera yeah I was just like I'll sit
here waiting because we're there
so going back to my love life with
Yellowstone so my life is there's this
one character in the main series named
Rip and he's like the the muscle of the
(13:11):
of the show he's like a killer but he's
also
the the ladies find him attractive I
guess and my wife does especially and
she's like well why why can't you be
more like rip I'm like Oh you mean like
an assassin killer that beats up like
okay uh anyway so for Valentine's Day
don't tell her she's not gonna watch
this but I was like yeah sure don't tell
(13:33):
don't tell her put it on the internet
put on the internet but she she will not
want things exactly I I
it's kind of funny I I I I bought her
like a I I have a framed photo of rip
with this character from Yellowstone
and he's all looking sexy and then I I
bought the rip jacket so I could look so
I could dress up like all right
(13:54):
with my cowboy hat one second
I see what's happening on Valentine's
Day night so all right I'm going we're
going to the ranch yeah I'm going full
on rip for Valentine's Day and I have
the jacket and everything because she
said she wants me to be more like rip so
wow it's gonna be super romantic this is
gonna be either really great for you or
(14:17):
awful I don't know which I don't think
there's a middle ground though with this
I feel like it's either epic and you
won't be able to talk about it on the
show next week when I ask you or I feel
like it will go so poorly you won't want
to talk about it on the show but either
way I'm gonna have to ask you about it
yeah well it's almost says anything here
yeah rupe's nice hair but he's yeah so I
(14:39):
have the whole look down so that's going
to be our date night will be as as a rip
from Yellowstone who is the muscle
killer and uh the a lot of the the my
wife likes him a lot so so did you ever
watch Brooklyn nine nine no I don't okay
well you're missing out on a fantastic
show
um but we have watched it it was one of
our we do kind of family shows where we
(15:00):
watch these like slightly older shows
and then like watch them through because
then we can binge watch them
um and there's an episode in there where
they go on the two characters go on
their honeymoon and uh the the main
character Andy sandberg's character has
a huge thing for the female lead in Die
Hard he is a die-hard fan and so he has
(15:22):
a huge crush on that and she is a bit of
a nerdy type and so they go on their
honeymoon and they like go to check in
or something and then they come back to
surprise each other and she decided to
dress up like the female lead and die
hard for him and he without telling her
dressed up as I think the like the Dewey
(15:43):
guy who came up with the Dewey Decimal
System and like wore that for her and it
was supposed to be this like very
romantic thing and then like there are
other elements of the show that make it
so it doesn't actually turn out that way
for them but I feel like this is a
similar thing where you need to tell her
like okay like this is this is the show
that I think you I think maybe it's like
(16:04):
a role play Valentine's Day for you it's
going to be kind of a role play
Valentine's Day as Rip the muscle and I
thought people leaving comments about
don't don't let them take you to the
train station because that's what they
when they need to bump someone off they
take them to this one Dumping Ground
basically in no man's land in Wyoming
and they they leave bodies there and so
but I I won't be I don't think I'll be
(16:24):
doing that this here's something here's
the part that's bothering me about this
is I tried a different in order to make
this thing work so I could look at all
of you in your eyes and stare deeply
into your souls
um I tried a different version of the
chat scroll and so it put it so it's a
little easier for me to read but I can't
click it and make it pop up from this
(16:46):
new window and there are so many
comments in here that I feel like need
to be shared Pony girl girl is on
another level
yeah exactly apparently you need to make
it rough tough that is what Pony girl
would like you to know
um I don't even and and pigs fly thinks
that's fantastic
(17:06):
um she thinks it would be funny to watch
you get rough
um I don't know what has happened in
here
um sadly you know with the prepping show
and everything I haven't seen anyone
mention paracord in here I haven't seen
any
um and he mentioned a rope
um which I feel like is a natural tie-in
get it the pun that is a bun for the
(17:29):
rope and everything I feel like that's a
natural tie-in
um this is yeah this is a whole
different so now I have to watch
um Yellowstone I can vicariously live
through your Valentine's Day yeah just
watch like maybe the first episode and
uh and so and you'll get introduced to
the character rip and to Beth who my
wife has a similar uh language uh adult
(17:51):
language that Beth uses so uh so it's
kind of it's kind of uh it's gonna work
out for you is what you're saying
yeah well I hope so fingers fingers
crossed
uh did you guys re-look your EMP preps
with the Ballon
oh balloon okay blue oh yeah with the
whole balloon situation did we do our
(18:12):
EMP preps uh I didn't uh I don't we'll
let you go first so
um I did not I didn't even think about
to be
I was like it's a balloon thing I feel
like how much could they even get from a
balloon thing there are Like Satellites
and everything else I feel like if
they're gonna try to like they have our
(18:32):
phones and everything else I don't know
what I don't know what they're going to
get I am not
um and I feel that way like I'm probably
a bad prepper for thinking that way but
like most of the information that anyone
could get about me like I don't know why
they would want it like I don't have
government secrets or anything like that
there's no like weapons diagrams or
something like who cares what my address
(18:55):
is or like what my cat's name is or
something like I don't understand it
um but I know there are lots of people
who don't want that information to be
out there and they're totally fine I
just don't understand what anyone's
Gonna Do With It
um so yeah so the balloon thing I wasn't
thinking EMP I was just thinking like
this is the weirdest thing ever and then
we shot it down with an F22 like I don't
(19:15):
did we not have like a blow dart or
something like it was a balloon right
like I don't I don't understand but yeah
I wasn't thinking EMP either on that one
uh uh although I do try to like for
spring cleaning like most most normal
people that the general public they they
clean their house and stuff and for us
Preppers I think we we reload some of
our bug out bags and things like that
(19:36):
yeah so I did do some uh you know topped
off some of the uh I have some like
battery chargers and stuff that are in
in EMP bags yeah just because I'm a
little weird weird but so I did top off
some of those techniques but I didn't do
anything related to the balloon so I
also have EMP bags and why do I have EMP
bags because I saw this video by this
(19:57):
guy the urban prepper and he said you
should get empty bags so I got EMP bags
um but then also uh what I've tried to
do in my little car wash office that I
have here at the moment
um is we have the I have the big
um kind of Bunker Hideout boxes that are
that are underground
(20:19):
um and they are uh metal So in theory
they should be Faraday cages and so what
I'm trying to do is put a you know a
grouping of you know older electronics
and you know radios and things like that
just have an extra set and then store
the the extras down there so they're
kind of in a gigantic uh EMP box as
(20:41):
opposed to
um just a a bag
yeah I have one of the big mission
mission Darkness Faraday bags and it's a
it's like a duffel bag basically it has
all sorts of stuff in it there's one
time this is uh is it last year the year
before I forget but I I had a bad dream
about like a EMP attacks I woke up in
the middle of the night and put all the
stuff on the zeop bag and like put my
(21:02):
laptops and stuff in because I was like
something's happening that's actually
yeah that's a great idea of kind of like
when we talk about like routines like
yeah you know lifestyle and things like
that if you had a place that was like an
EMP bag or something where you could
kind of put your laptop like like I have
a laptop bag that is from 511 that I
(21:22):
just love it's my favorite little laptop
bag
um but it doesn't have any sort of EMP
protection so like it would be great to
have like a laptop bag that had EMP
protection in it but didn't look like
and eat like a faraday bag because they
tend to look very like yeah I I go I go
(21:42):
normal backpacks but with sleeves for
the electronics because they look funny
do they make up does Mission Darkness
make a laptop sleeve yeah they do okay
well so I I have it yeah
all my work people my work people thinks
it thinks it's weird
you're like I don't care when when you
have no data left and my laptop works
(22:04):
then we'll talk they're not they're not
Preppers they're yeah exactly the
general public that's not a great
question from you won't get it but uh
from pretty girl the uh the tub what
would be your EDC on the Yellowstone
Ranch that's an awesome question oh I
feel like man we should dive into this
more we should we've watched one but uh
all right there's so much there's so
much action that goes on at the at the
(22:25):
ranch so you uh they all have knives you
want to have like your rope uh for sure
uh your your EDC hat uh you they have so
many injuries and stuff happens you kind
of I think you'd have to EDC like like a
trauma kit type thing for all the stuff
that goes on there I think I would
always have some uh soft body armor I
guess uh let me think what else
(22:46):
it's crazy
these these guys never get a break on
their their Ranch like one episode after
episode it's just like drama after
trauma after she gets shootings and all
sorts of stuff like people want that
ranch so good great but yeah it's a I
think a flashlight would be good as
normal like I think normal DDC stuff but
I think uh you have to go a little bit
more tactical if you want to be on the
(23:07):
Yellowstone Bridge well I think the
other question too is are you talking
about EDC that is time appropriate so if
this is Yellowstone's present yeah
Yellowstone's present time but yeah if
you're talking 1883 that's that's
another that's a whole interesting topic
too I think okay because I thought that
Yellowstone was set it's it was it was
(23:27):
more recent than 1883 that 1883 was the
the prequel
um but that Yellowstone was like in the
1950s 1970s sort of a thing not
necessarily like current day yeah so
it's yeah current is the main show okay
then it goes back like to the 1920s for
a like a a spin-off show and then
(23:47):
there's another spin-off show with and
uh from 1883 so there's three different
time periods that you're kind of dealing
with okay all right
um okay and there's some flash then
there's flashback scenes too so
you know what is going to be great about
this is my wife likes to watch shows
like Yellowstone and I can't stand them
um just the the dramas I don't like
(24:08):
dramas I don't like scary I don't like
horror it's just not I don't I don't
like horror or scary movies either so
yeah I can't I don't know if you can
tell from a guy who has Legos and funkos
in his office and everything else
um but that's not my jam I'm like give
me the comedy and that's fantastic
um but she likes all of those so like
Yellowstone is a show that she would
(24:29):
probably love to watch
um but like she would watch it by
herself because I wouldn't watch it so
now I have to apparently at least watch
one episode so that we can have a yeah
you should watch the first one you might
make it to the first season there's a
lot of a lot of action on there I saw
someone left a comment about what good
would a laptop do in an EMP proof bag
how would you charge it so uh you could
(24:49):
I would charge it through solar like you
have the energy the power Banks and
stuff uh so you can charge it through
that way in a laptop I think would be
good because you have a lot of beta on
it I have a lot of people
uh books and stuff and you could use it
for file transfers and uh you could have
ham radio software you could have all
sorts of maps and other things so I
think having electronics and EMP bags is
(25:09):
good yeah I think even too like with
some of the stuff like if you if you've
got the EMP bag and you're putting like
a like a regular charger in it if you're
putting uh you know hard drives and
thumb drives and things like that I mean
you could have a whole setup and then
like you said with solar
um being able to charge it or power it
that way I think is a great idea yeah
and as someone's saying um my top my bro
(25:32):
said there will be another show in Texas
called three six that's there's a a
ranch in Texas on in the series called
three sixes uh and I think that would be
awesome too oh uh so yeah so so solar
big eye so it doesn't solar use
Electronics yes so it does use solar
solar uses Electronics but you could
take the mission Darkness makes Faraday
(25:54):
bags that you can put a solar knot like
a rigid solar probably in it but you can
put a portable solar or foldable solar
panel in there
um and you could put a few
um kind of smaller like battery chargers
that would maybe charge the the laptop
once or twice
um so you're you probably aren't going
to get you know a week's worth of power
(26:17):
but you could at least use it
intermittently and you probably wouldn't
leave your laptop on all day long if
you're in the middle of a disaster yeah
um but for example that's part of why I
put the the boxes in in here that I did
is they're two feet by two feet by four
feet so it's I think it's eight it's 16
cubic feet of storage
(26:38):
um that's all metal encased and ready to
go
um so I could put you know much larger
batteries in here and full you know I
could put a full a couple of rigid solar
panels in here without a problem and it
would it would be contained I was told I
was told that the solar panels
themselves wouldn't be as impacted from
an EMP as like this uh the certain like
(27:00):
electric stations and stuff but I do
have some in in bags and I have some out
but yeah well you you keep a mix it's
like in bags
Rigid portable it just I have some of
the the nice like uh the expensive fold
out ones uh like a survival techno where
it uses those ones I think uh Canadian
pepper does too so I have those in a bag
(27:22):
but that's just because they're easy to
store there so yeah but I have some of
the rigid ones that are just out in the
open they just they just are there
because they're outside they're out for
the Marauders to get if they want yeah
exactly they're big and rigid and they
just sit out in the line
um top I just picked up a small Sand
Dune radio which you reviewed that was
man if you that one I reviewed was
(27:43):
probably like a 2000 12 I think that's
awesome
the question is did you click on the
affiliate link
I didn't know if they still made it
anymore but I I think that's an awesome
radio the the funny thing on that
particular video that you're talking
about if it's the yellow one I recorded
that I try to keep a similar backdrop
for like the tabletop ones I think I
(28:05):
recorded it in the shed in the afternoon
because my wife didn't want me setting
up in the house I'm like okay I'll go
into the shed so it was like all these
spiders and stuff were in there and I
had these lights and I was filming it
and you could I had to stop it when
there was cars driving by because you
could hear it
we did that and so I had to three stop
and repeat the video so as opposed to
(28:26):
live streaming get a car wash that's
something different yeah yeah you're in
this trailer yeah exactly you're in a
much better better mobile live stream
Studio Jeremiah long time subscriber
yeah that's over a decade
um so so one of the things because I
know you've got to run here in a second
but I actually did like put a whole
topic together there was a thumbnail and
everything uh prepping with your
(28:48):
Valentine yeah exactly so what I was
thinking is with Valentine's Day coming
like what are some ways that if you are
trying to get your spouse significant
other partner whatever kind of on board
with the idea of preparedness
um which was a whole process in our
family because it was such a shock to my
(29:09):
wife that I decided that this was a
thing that was going to start to happen
um it was a whole process so I'm curious
like okay what are some ways with
Valentine's Day approaching that you
could begin to kind of
start getting them interested what are
ways to bring them in and and get them
on board
Jesus
(29:33):
I don't think lots of pepper plants
I don't think that I would try to get
her off Valentines I'm trying to say
you're gonna pick your battles I think
to be honest so and the thing is not
necessarily on Valentine's Day to do it
it's more tough we're trying to bring
timeliness in with time okay so like
generally like okay if you're trying to
(29:55):
bring your partner into this whole world
like what are some ways to do it and
we're gonna do it on the veil of
Valentine's Day but no one's gonna sit
at Valentine's Day and
and put camo on
I'm getting swatted oh you're getting
swatted all right well then
oh it's time to go
you wanna show your teeth
go show your teeth no
(30:17):
no
teeth
okay all right so what we're gonna do is
because people are watching
they haven't seen you for a little bit
you can come out
[Music]
she lost her her front tooth so why
(30:39):
don't you show oh I see
yeah oh that's fantastic is that did the
Tooth Fairy come did the Tooth Fairy
come
how much did you get
twenty dollars oh my goodness that was a
good tooth oh Lord that's an amazing
tooth it's a good return so was it was
it a gold was it like 20 in gold or
silver I wonder you were silver silver
(31:02):
American Eagle or whatever
yeah it's coming it's looking nice
okay we'll go in a second let's go how
did the Tooth Fairy break down the
security that is tub's house that's
that's a concern I think and it's they
have like a little kind of bag for the
teeth too you see it's a it's a very
(31:22):
um yeah it's a it's a good it's a
discrete operation but yeah I wanted to
give her silver coins because I thought
it'd be a cool thing to every tooth you
get a silver coin so by the end of it
you have a few rolls of it but she
wanted straight up cash with the two
series she's like no no no
exactly don't give me this this gonna
give her some could give her some
(31:43):
leftover Bitcoin or something exactly
and she said I don't want that look
Tooth Fairy I don't need your quarters
the the current fiat currency is a myth
I want ethereum I want Bitcoin
um all right so you have to go so why
don't we do that let's we had some
conversation about Valentine's Day we'll
revisit this and Yellowstone next week
and we'll hear how rip did how how that
(32:06):
turned out
I'll work on rescheduling the the thing
that they scheduled at 6 30 so that's
okay well because it's cutting into our
time we'll make it work it's fine

(01:01):
I'm seeing all of you your your

your setup so that people can actually
see you and I'm like you know what it's
a fair point I'm working on that so
after many many uh days and weeks of
(01:23):
trying to come up with a solution I
think uh I have thrown enough money at
this problem to make it so that I can
look you all in the eyes and uh and not
have an issue so we're gonna see so let
me know in the in the chat uh let me
know if uh if this is working out better
for us than than it has been previously
um I'm hoping that it will be to mix
(01:45):
things up I might just go on the side
now yeah exactly you just you do the
profile and I'll do that
gotta keep consistent podcast ever yeah
um it's a video that's a live stream
it's all the things anyway welcome to
prep talk live episode 46 I am Casey
with Cascadia dispatch joining me as
(02:05):
always uh is tough the urban prepper tup
what is up how are you how are things in
your world well uh I'm doing pretty good
uh keeping busy with things uh family
things about my family they're they're
having rough times right now there's a
stomach bug going around and it's uh
there's there's vomit all over the place
oh my God okay I'm sorry to hear that
it's that it's that it's that when you
(02:26):
were like we're going through tough
times there's a lot of things going on
in the world today when you're like oh
tough times okay like well if within our
household the other everyone's
everyone's barfing but me because I
don't I don't typically get sick so
because you don't touch her or love your
children or your family I understand you
know yeah so physical contact and love
of any kind is not something that
happens you know you keep that wall up
(02:49):
yeah the other morning we woke up and it
was like uh the scene from The Godfather
with the horse head but it was like bar
fall over and again so then I had to
clean that up a lot of dry cleaning
things and then uh and so and uh then my
son uh kid prepper came down with it
this morning and barf all over the place
had to clean that up and then my wife's
not feeling well you know
(03:09):
it's it's a vomity tough household but
definitely I don't I don't typically get
sick so it's like the Exorcist yeah yeah
it totally is so just all over the place
I got to test out I got to use my uh my
respirator math for some cleanup Duty so
that's good fantastic fantastic do you
get out the contractor bags well yeah I
(03:29):
I actually look forward to these moments
because I get to try out my like
biohazard perhaps so I got a module for
it so so when the when the bark starts
coming I get the mask on get the gloves
this is why when we when we go up this
summer and meet with the top family
um and we're going out to dinner because
what I can imagine is like hey kids
Let's do an experiment this chicken
(03:51):
seems
okay ish let's see what happens worst
case scenario is we get to use the [ __ ]
bags and the other supplies so I feel
like we'll go to a lovely we'll go to a
lovely family restaurant or something
like that where there are Health codes
and standards I found that my my
biohazard prepped like I have like the
cleaning supplies we're pretty good on
that we have the right equipment the PPE
(04:14):
but they're uh we need to stock up a
little bit more like some of the
Gatorade stuff some of the to get you
rehydrated and all that kind and uh and
like saltine crackers like your recovery
from being sick I think we're we uh we
don't really eat saltine crackers unless
you're sick so uh so I I did have some
of my preps and then I think I gave I
donated them to like a food bank and so
(04:35):
I need to figure out the right strategy
for for like vomiting vomit preps I
guess yeah yeah I think think so one of
the things that we found actually a lot
that kind of a side tangent
um
with the Gatorade thing so the
electrolytes and everything in the
Gatorade when the kids were little like
Gatorade was wonderful and everything
um we found on Amazon and I can put the
(04:56):
link somewhere I'll find a place to put
it they make uh essentially like
electrolyte drops that you can put into
anything and it just makes it but it's
there's no like sugar or flavoring or
anything it's just the like the
nutrients and the electrolytes and like
some water or something like that
um and so we have them they make them
like a little travel squeezy bottles but
(05:19):
then you can also get like the big so we
have like the gigantic like refills and
then the little ones and we take the
little ones like in the car and stuff
but I put it in my coffee in the morning
um because I usually like you know I get
up at like five and I work out and I
text top and I'm like here's what we're
talking about and then I forget to send
(05:39):
him the text because it's five in the
morning yeah
um and then in my coffee in the morning
I'll put electrolyte drops in my coffee
instead out of necessarily doing it like
in water which is probably not great but
I feel like I'm being efficient
um it actually makes coffee taste really
good nice I I never thought about uh
electrolytes in my coffee but that's
(05:59):
that's probably a good thing I think
part of like the Gatorade I think it's
also like a morale type uh oh yeah
booster it's like like uh uh it's a
comfort it's a comfort type thing too so
yeah yeah we also did it with like
Crystal Light so you take like Crystal
Light the little individual uh Crystal
Light serving things you can put
electrolytes in with that
(06:21):
um and then like Shake It Up in a water
bottle um the cool thing is that they
have they'll sell the individual packets
on Amazon for that as well yeah what's
the what's the baby stuff the the
Pedialyte I used to have a lot of that
on my preps but then once they're no
longer babies it was like I was just
kind of wasting money like because they
expire after a couple years type thing
(06:42):
or I think at least the packaging says
so so yeah but I need there's there's
some improvements I can make in my my
vomit kit but uh but for The Biohazard
part I'm pretty I'm good on that you
need to upgrade your vomit module yeah I
think well I need like the vomit
recovery module like the yeah so and I
don't know my wife when she's sick and
throwing up she likes to drink a pickle
(07:03):
juice that's her thing so we oh yeah and
so she makes her own cans her own
pickles and so she's been using up some
of the pickle juice from that so you
know I've heard and maybe it's a tick
tock thing also is it unnerving you that
I'm staring at you this much in this I'm
not used to that is anyone else unnerved
by that like is that just a whole
different thing like if we all of a
(07:25):
sudden we're going from black and white
to color or something it's a creepy that
creepy stare exactly exactly I I was
gonna when I did the thumbnail I was
gonna do like I had the little emoji
icon with the heart eyes and I was like
I'll put it on both of us and then but I
was like I don't know how tough's gonna
feel about that I feel that way but I
don't know the key's gonna feel that way
so I'm glad that I did someone's asking
(07:45):
about the color of the module so that's
a that's a white for it's uh like
sanitation type stuff or it's like a pea
green
it should be like a pea green
um yeah the vomit that we've had it's
more like a maroon kind of color it's a
maroon I feel like you need to see a
doctor immediately yeah no I think it's
because of that uh the Gatorade I think
(08:06):
maroon is a bad plan
um also
um we had uh the the painters who were
gonna paint the office decided that they
would just show up three hours late
um and they're apparently trying to
pressure wash the outside so can you
hear the engine the humming or anything
like that
I'm hoping during moments of Silence I
(08:28):
could hear something but I wouldn't have
noticed if you hadn't said anything okay
well then we'll just continue to talk
constantly it could easily be like a
like a fan of the background or
something exactly like showed up and I
was like you guys are supposed to be
here like two and a half hours ago we're
about we have like we have dozens of
people waiting to hear us talk I can't
have you know this I'm gonna look people
(08:49):
in the eye tonight this is the
president's live but I think the people
of people like the reruns too so we're
kind of like uh we're kind of like The
Flintstones or something where I yeah no
one wants a Christmas story
a good fella more like Good Fellas
they're good I don't think Goodfellas
was a big hit in the theaters but or
Shawshank Redemption uh but then when it
came when it went out to straight to
(09:10):
video or on TV then it became real
popular so that's what we are yeah we're
not necessarily appointment podcasting
but we are uh DVR podcasting yeah I
think so yeah everyone loves us on TiVo
I know we're supposed to talk about
Valentine's Day stuff but I I was I've
been meaning to talk to someone about uh
Yellowstone okay have you watched the
series I have not
(09:32):
I need you to watch the full season of
Yellowstone and then switch over to the
spin-off one called 1883 because I've
been uh of the preps that they have for
it's basically talking about like the uh
the kind of like Oregon Trail style
pioneering and things that and I was
watching it I'm just thinking from from
a proper point of view like on the the
(09:53):
preps that they had and what was most
valuable what wasn't and all those kind
of things so I it was just it made me
think of you but if you haven't watched
it we have some binge watching now was
there but was there a specific episode
where they discussed this or is it no no
they never discuss it I I always it's
just always an ever-present part of the
show well no it's when I when I when I
think prepper is like we're just kind of
(10:14):
dialed into prepping no matter what it
is so I could be watching Yellowstone
and and I'm thinking about pretty
oppress and stuff like that I wonder
what kind of cast iron pot that is or
yeah they're trying to not die on I'm
like the Oregon Trail and you're like no
let's see him die of dysentery I want to
know what sort of equipment I would need
to make sure that we could afford the
river for example yeah it was it was I
(10:36):
thought it was fascinating like the I'm
looking at what what they're cooking for
this is the 1883 one because that's more
like the pioneering stuff but uh they
had I like the little TP stands for the
uh I I don't know if it's a lodge uh
cast iron cook set but it kind of looked
like it but then I was I was like I
wonder what meals that they're doing for
that because I think that that maybe I
should have that let's talk about better
(10:56):
in my prep so uh because they were doing
various stews and things and so and I
don't know and I like the shovels I was
eyeballing the shovels that they use in
that show and trying to figure out if I
know this is my shovel situation what
are the okay so but is it the new is it
the newer equipment shovels or is it old
because my understanding is
the show is actually set a while ago and
(11:19):
then the prequel is set even further
Beyond no it's it's kind of it's pretty
fascinating because and I Know It has
nothing do the Fantastic what kind of
does profound because I'll get back to
that later
tell me how this show relates to your
love life
I will I definitely will
no the show Yellowstone is in modern
times but it's like the uh the stuff
(11:41):
that goes on it's out of the Wilderness
and stuff and so they kind of live by a
different law but then so there's five
seasons of that one but they also have
some prequels and a prequel to that so
they have like a 1920s something
Yellowstone like what happened during
those 20s basically at that same
location that they're at and then like
the 1883 one is like how they got to
that particular location where all these
(12:02):
all the drama and stuff happens but uh
so there's it's pretty unique in that
way because uh and they're all the
episodes are really good and but for
like a prepper if you have a proper
mindset like all the stuff from 1883 is
super fascinating I think so oh wow but
okay but now now tying this back into
Valentine's Day yeah uh so if anyone
enjoying the car wash that I'm in right
(12:23):
now yeah I like it I like it okay I feel
like like is it is it coming through in
the audience like yeah like this is
where straight through
through like like I'm imagining that
your your stage back you're like in a
semi truck and you're driving down the
road and I just hear all this stuff
(12:49):
we actually have a topic that made sense
yeah you're looking at the camera I had
the camera
the camera yeah I was just like I'll sit
here waiting because we're there
so going back to my love life with
Yellowstone so my life is there's this
one character in the main series named
Rip and he's like the the muscle of the
(13:11):
of the show he's like a killer but he's
also
the the ladies find him attractive I
guess and my wife does especially and
she's like well why why can't you be
more like rip I'm like Oh you mean like
an assassin killer that beats up like
okay uh anyway so for Valentine's Day
don't tell her she's not gonna watch
this but I was like yeah sure don't tell
(13:33):
don't tell her put it on the internet
put on the internet but she she will not
want things exactly I I
it's kind of funny I I I I bought her
like a I I have a framed photo of rip
with this character from Yellowstone
and he's all looking sexy and then I I
bought the rip jacket so I could look so
I could dress up like all right
(13:54):
with my cowboy hat one second
I see what's happening on Valentine's
Day night so all right I'm going we're
going to the ranch yeah I'm going full
on rip for Valentine's Day and I have
the jacket and everything because she
said she wants me to be more like rip so
wow it's gonna be super romantic this is
gonna be either really great for you or
(14:17):
awful I don't know which I don't think
there's a middle ground though with this
I feel like it's either epic and you
won't be able to talk about it on the
show next week when I ask you or I feel
like it will go so poorly you won't want
to talk about it on the show but either
way I'm gonna have to ask you about it
yeah well it's almost says anything here
yeah rupe's nice hair but he's yeah so I
(14:39):
have the whole look down so that's going
to be our date night will be as as a rip
from Yellowstone who is the muscle
killer and uh the a lot of the the my
wife likes him a lot so so did you ever
watch Brooklyn nine nine no I don't okay
well you're missing out on a fantastic
show
um but we have watched it it was one of
our we do kind of family shows where we
(15:00):
watch these like slightly older shows
and then like watch them through because
then we can binge watch them
um and there's an episode in there where
they go on the two characters go on
their honeymoon and uh the the main
character Andy sandberg's character has
a huge thing for the female lead in Die
Hard he is a die-hard fan and so he has
(15:22):
a huge crush on that and she is a bit of
a nerdy type and so they go on their
honeymoon and they like go to check in
or something and then they come back to
surprise each other and she decided to
dress up like the female lead and die
hard for him and he without telling her
dressed up as I think the like the Dewey
(15:43):
guy who came up with the Dewey Decimal
System and like wore that for her and it
was supposed to be this like very
romantic thing and then like there are
other elements of the show that make it
so it doesn't actually turn out that way
for them but I feel like this is a
similar thing where you need to tell her
like okay like this is this is the show
that I think you I think maybe it's like
(16:04):
a role play Valentine's Day for you it's
going to be kind of a role play
Valentine's Day as Rip the muscle and I
thought people leaving comments about
don't don't let them take you to the
train station because that's what they
when they need to bump someone off they
take them to this one Dumping Ground
basically in no man's land in Wyoming
and they they leave bodies there and so
but I I won't be I don't think I'll be
(16:24):
doing that this here's something here's
the part that's bothering me about this
is I tried a different in order to make
this thing work so I could look at all
of you in your eyes and stare deeply
into your souls
um I tried a different version of the
chat scroll and so it put it so it's a
little easier for me to read but I can't
click it and make it pop up from this
(16:46):
new window and there are so many
comments in here that I feel like need
to be shared Pony girl girl is on
another level
yeah exactly apparently you need to make
it rough tough that is what Pony girl
would like you to know
um I don't even and and pigs fly thinks
that's fantastic
(17:06):
um she thinks it would be funny to watch
you get rough
um I don't know what has happened in
here
um sadly you know with the prepping show
and everything I haven't seen anyone
mention paracord in here I haven't seen
any
um and he mentioned a rope
um which I feel like is a natural tie-in
get it the pun that is a bun for the
(17:29):
rope and everything I feel like that's a
natural tie-in
um this is yeah this is a whole
different so now I have to watch
um Yellowstone I can vicariously live
through your Valentine's Day yeah just
watch like maybe the first episode and
uh and so and you'll get introduced to
the character rip and to Beth who my
wife has a similar uh language uh adult
(17:51):
language that Beth uses so uh so it's
kind of it's kind of uh it's gonna work
out for you is what you're saying
yeah well I hope so fingers fingers
crossed
uh did you guys re-look your EMP preps
with the Ballon
oh balloon okay blue oh yeah with the
whole balloon situation did we do our
(18:12):
EMP preps uh I didn't uh I don't we'll
let you go first so
um I did not I didn't even think about
to be
I was like it's a balloon thing I feel
like how much could they even get from a
balloon thing there are Like Satellites
and everything else I feel like if
they're gonna try to like they have our
(18:32):
phones and everything else I don't know
what I don't know what they're going to
get I am not
um and I feel that way like I'm probably
a bad prepper for thinking that way but
like most of the information that anyone
could get about me like I don't know why
they would want it like I don't have
government secrets or anything like that
there's no like weapons diagrams or
something like who cares what my address
(18:55):
is or like what my cat's name is or
something like I don't understand it
um but I know there are lots of people
who don't want that information to be
out there and they're totally fine I
just don't understand what anyone's
Gonna Do With It
um so yeah so the balloon thing I wasn't
thinking EMP I was just thinking like
this is the weirdest thing ever and then
we shot it down with an F22 like I don't
(19:15):
did we not have like a blow dart or
something like it was a balloon right
like I don't I don't understand but yeah
I wasn't thinking EMP either on that one
uh uh although I do try to like for
spring cleaning like most most normal
people that the general public they they
clean their house and stuff and for us
Preppers I think we we reload some of
our bug out bags and things like that
(19:36):
yeah so I did do some uh you know topped
off some of the uh I have some like
battery chargers and stuff that are in
in EMP bags yeah just because I'm a
little weird weird but so I did top off
some of those techniques but I didn't do
anything related to the balloon so I
also have EMP bags and why do I have EMP
bags because I saw this video by this
(19:57):
guy the urban prepper and he said you
should get empty bags so I got EMP bags
um but then also uh what I've tried to
do in my little car wash office that I
have here at the moment
um is we have the I have the big
um kind of Bunker Hideout boxes that are
that are underground
(20:19):
um and they are uh metal So in theory
they should be Faraday cages and so what
I'm trying to do is put a you know a
grouping of you know older electronics
and you know radios and things like that
just have an extra set and then store
the the extras down there so they're
kind of in a gigantic uh EMP box as
(20:41):
opposed to
um just a a bag
yeah I have one of the big mission
mission Darkness Faraday bags and it's a
it's like a duffel bag basically it has
all sorts of stuff in it there's one
time this is uh is it last year the year
before I forget but I I had a bad dream
about like a EMP attacks I woke up in
the middle of the night and put all the
stuff on the zeop bag and like put my
(21:02):
laptops and stuff in because I was like
something's happening that's actually
yeah that's a great idea of kind of like
when we talk about like routines like
yeah you know lifestyle and things like
that if you had a place that was like an
EMP bag or something where you could
kind of put your laptop like like I have
a laptop bag that is from 511 that I
(21:22):
just love it's my favorite little laptop
bag
um but it doesn't have any sort of EMP
protection so like it would be great to
have like a laptop bag that had EMP
protection in it but didn't look like
and eat like a faraday bag because they
tend to look very like yeah I I go I go
(21:42):
normal backpacks but with sleeves for
the electronics because they look funny
do they make up does Mission Darkness
make a laptop sleeve yeah they do okay
well so I I have it yeah
all my work people my work people thinks
it thinks it's weird
you're like I don't care when when you
have no data left and my laptop works
(22:04):
then we'll talk they're not they're not
Preppers they're yeah exactly the
general public that's not a great
question from you won't get it but uh
from pretty girl the uh the tub what
would be your EDC on the Yellowstone
Ranch that's an awesome question oh I
feel like man we should dive into this
more we should we've watched one but uh
all right there's so much there's so
much action that goes on at the at the
(22:25):
ranch so you uh they all have knives you
want to have like your rope uh for sure
uh your your EDC hat uh you they have so
many injuries and stuff happens you kind
of I think you'd have to EDC like like a
trauma kit type thing for all the stuff
that goes on there I think I would
always have some uh soft body armor I
guess uh let me think what else
(22:46):
it's crazy
these these guys never get a break on
their their Ranch like one episode after
episode it's just like drama after
trauma after she gets shootings and all
sorts of stuff like people want that
ranch so good great but yeah it's a I
think a flashlight would be good as
normal like I think normal DDC stuff but
I think uh you have to go a little bit
more tactical if you want to be on the
(23:07):
Yellowstone Bridge well I think the
other question too is are you talking
about EDC that is time appropriate so if
this is Yellowstone's present yeah
Yellowstone's present time but yeah if
you're talking 1883 that's that's
another that's a whole interesting topic
too I think okay because I thought that
Yellowstone was set it's it was it was
(23:27):
more recent than 1883 that 1883 was the
the prequel
um but that Yellowstone was like in the
1950s 1970s sort of a thing not
necessarily like current day yeah so
it's yeah current is the main show okay
then it goes back like to the 1920s for
a like a a spin-off show and then
(23:47):
there's another spin-off show with and
uh from 1883 so there's three different
time periods that you're kind of dealing
with okay all right
um okay and there's some flash then
there's flashback scenes too so
you know what is going to be great about
this is my wife likes to watch shows
like Yellowstone and I can't stand them
um just the the dramas I don't like
(24:08):
dramas I don't like scary I don't like
horror it's just not I don't I don't
like horror or scary movies either so
yeah I can't I don't know if you can
tell from a guy who has Legos and funkos
in his office and everything else
um but that's not my jam I'm like give
me the comedy and that's fantastic
um but she likes all of those so like
Yellowstone is a show that she would
(24:29):
probably love to watch
um but like she would watch it by
herself because I wouldn't watch it so
now I have to apparently at least watch
one episode so that we can have a yeah
you should watch the first one you might
make it to the first season there's a
lot of a lot of action on there I saw
someone left a comment about what good
would a laptop do in an EMP proof bag
how would you charge it so uh you could
(24:49):
I would charge it through solar like you
have the energy the power Banks and
stuff uh so you can charge it through
that way in a laptop I think would be
good because you have a lot of beta on
it I have a lot of people
uh books and stuff and you could use it
for file transfers and uh you could have
ham radio software you could have all
sorts of maps and other things so I
think having electronics and EMP bags is
(25:09):
good yeah I think even too like with
some of the stuff like if you if you've
got the EMP bag and you're putting like
a like a regular charger in it if you're
putting uh you know hard drives and
thumb drives and things like that I mean
you could have a whole setup and then
like you said with solar
um being able to charge it or power it
that way I think is a great idea yeah
and as someone's saying um my top my bro
(25:32):
said there will be another show in Texas
called three six that's there's a a
ranch in Texas on in the series called
three sixes uh and I think that would be
awesome too oh uh so yeah so so solar
big eye so it doesn't solar use
Electronics yes so it does use solar
solar uses Electronics but you could
take the mission Darkness makes Faraday
(25:54):
bags that you can put a solar knot like
a rigid solar probably in it but you can
put a portable solar or foldable solar
panel in there
um and you could put a few
um kind of smaller like battery chargers
that would maybe charge the the laptop
once or twice
um so you're you probably aren't going
to get you know a week's worth of power
(26:17):
but you could at least use it
intermittently and you probably wouldn't
leave your laptop on all day long if
you're in the middle of a disaster yeah
um but for example that's part of why I
put the the boxes in in here that I did
is they're two feet by two feet by four
feet so it's I think it's eight it's 16
cubic feet of storage
(26:38):
um that's all metal encased and ready to
go
um so I could put you know much larger
batteries in here and full you know I
could put a full a couple of rigid solar
panels in here without a problem and it
would it would be contained I was told I
was told that the solar panels
themselves wouldn't be as impacted from
an EMP as like this uh the certain like
(27:00):
electric stations and stuff but I do
have some in in bags and I have some out
but yeah well you you keep a mix it's
like in bags
Rigid portable it just I have some of
the the nice like uh the expensive fold
out ones uh like a survival techno where
it uses those ones I think uh Canadian
pepper does too so I have those in a bag
(27:22):
but that's just because they're easy to
store there so yeah but I have some of
the rigid ones that are just out in the
open they just they just are there
because they're outside they're out for
the Marauders to get if they want yeah
exactly they're big and rigid and they
just sit out in the line
um top I just picked up a small Sand
Dune radio which you reviewed that was
man if you that one I reviewed was
(27:43):
probably like a 2000 12 I think that's
awesome
the question is did you click on the
affiliate link
I didn't know if they still made it
anymore but I I think that's an awesome
radio the the funny thing on that
particular video that you're talking
about if it's the yellow one I recorded
that I try to keep a similar backdrop
for like the tabletop ones I think I
(28:05):
recorded it in the shed in the afternoon
because my wife didn't want me setting
up in the house I'm like okay I'll go
into the shed so it was like all these
spiders and stuff were in there and I
had these lights and I was filming it
and you could I had to stop it when
there was cars driving by because you
could hear it
we did that and so I had to three stop
and repeat the video so as opposed to
(28:26):
live streaming get a car wash that's
something different yeah yeah you're in
this trailer yeah exactly you're in a
much better better mobile live stream
Studio Jeremiah long time subscriber
yeah that's over a decade
um so so one of the things because I
know you've got to run here in a second
but I actually did like put a whole
topic together there was a thumbnail and
everything uh prepping with your
(28:48):
Valentine yeah exactly so what I was
thinking is with Valentine's Day coming
like what are some ways that if you are
trying to get your spouse significant
other partner whatever kind of on board
with the idea of preparedness
um which was a whole process in our
family because it was such a shock to my
(29:09):
wife that I decided that this was a
thing that was going to start to happen
um it was a whole process so I'm curious
like okay what are some ways with
Valentine's Day approaching that you
could begin to kind of
start getting them interested what are
ways to bring them in and and get them
on board
Jesus
(29:33):
I don't think lots of pepper plants
I don't think that I would try to get
her off Valentines I'm trying to say
you're gonna pick your battles I think
to be honest so and the thing is not
necessarily on Valentine's Day to do it
it's more tough we're trying to bring
timeliness in with time okay so like
generally like okay if you're trying to
(29:55):
bring your partner into this whole world
like what are some ways to do it and
we're gonna do it on the veil of
Valentine's Day but no one's gonna sit
at Valentine's Day and
and put camo on
I'm getting swatted oh you're getting
swatted all right well then
oh it's time to go
you wanna show your teeth
go show your teeth no
(30:17):
no
teeth
okay all right so what we're gonna do is
because people are watching
they haven't seen you for a little bit
you can come out
[Music]
she lost her her front tooth so why
(30:39):
don't you show oh I see
yeah oh that's fantastic is that did the
Tooth Fairy come did the Tooth Fairy
come
how much did you get
twenty dollars oh my goodness that was a
good tooth oh Lord that's an amazing
tooth it's a good return so was it was
it a gold was it like 20 in gold or
silver I wonder you were silver silver
(31:02):
American Eagle or whatever
yeah it's coming it's looking nice
okay we'll go in a second let's go how
did the Tooth Fairy break down the
security that is tub's house that's
that's a concern I think and it's they
have like a little kind of bag for the
teeth too you see it's a it's a very
(31:22):
um yeah it's a it's a good it's a
discrete operation but yeah I wanted to
give her silver coins because I thought
it'd be a cool thing to every tooth you
get a silver coin so by the end of it
you have a few rolls of it but she
wanted straight up cash with the two
series she's like no no no
exactly don't give me this this gonna
give her some could give her some
(31:43):
leftover Bitcoin or something exactly
and she said I don't want that look
Tooth Fairy I don't need your quarters
the the current fiat currency is a myth
I want ethereum I want Bitcoin
um all right so you have to go so why
don't we do that let's we had some
conversation about Valentine's Day we'll
revisit this and Yellowstone next week
and we'll hear how rip did how how that
(32:06):
turned out
I'll work on rescheduling the the thing
that they scheduled at 6 30 so that's
okay well because it's cutting into our
time we'll make it work it's fine
