	All right, it is Tuesday, March 8th, 2022.
	Mike Adams here.
	Thank you for joining me today.
	And today, you're going to hear me say some things that you probably never imagined that I would say.
	And that's because when times change, we have to recalibrate our positions on things, including things that we may have criticized before, and suddenly there's a new use case or there's a new practical application for that.
	And that's what I'm going to be talking about today in the world of crypto.
	And the short version of this is that Well, there were really two big events that changed the equation on all of this.
	So let me back up.
	Let's go pre-Trucker Convoy, Canada, Canadian government seizing people's bank accounts.
	Let's go back before that.
	In my mind, the risk matrix before that between crypto and fiat currency went as follows.
	Remember, this is pre-Canada here.
	It was, well...
	Crypto is highly speculative.
	Crypto is often backed by nothing.
	There's a lot of fraud in the stablecoins, or certain stablecoins, not all of them, but some of them.
	There's a lot of sketchiness.
	People get their wallets stolen, so on and so forth.
	You know, Bitcoin takes a lot of electricity.
	And meanwhile, the banking system, even though you're losing value on your fiat currency every day because of the money printing, the banking system is or was in this case pretty reliable.
	They weren't going to just steal all your money and walk away with it.
	You know, they would give you your money back if you ask for it and so on and so forth.
	They're decent stewards of your deposits.
	OK, that was pre-Canada.
	That's all changed.
	So now, and not just Canada, by the way, we're going to talk about Russia and economic sanctions as well.
	But when Canada said, oh, we're going to just loot all the bank accounts of anybody who supported the Freedom Convoy, the truckers, right?
	And people got their bank accounts all looted, just stolen outright without any due process.
	On that day, and you heard me talk about it, I said, whoa, whoa, the entire dynamic of banking, you know, the public contract, the social contract has just been shattered.
	Who's going to trust banks ever again in Canada?
	And of course, that is now extended to the entire Western world, where if the State Department thinks that you're associated with Russia in any way whatsoever, they just seize your money.
	They just freeze your account and the banks comply.
	And also, by the way, if they think you're a Russian citizen...
	They just steal everything you have, right?
	They steal, well, your yacht, I guess, if you're a billionaire and have a yacht, they just steal it!
	They just take it!
	If you have a bank account, they just steal it!
	And I'm wondering, what's the due process on this?
	How is it that private citizens...
	Private Russian citizens who have nothing to do with any war or anything are having all their assets stolen by Western authorities.
	Something is very, very wrong in this system when a private citizen can have their assets stolen.
	Now, remember that whatever they do to Putin or Putin, The Russian people, they will eventually do to you and I. In fact, they did it to us first.
	So over the last several years, they've deplatformed conservatives, right?
	And Trump supporters and Christians in America.
	They've demonetized their podcasts.
	They've kicked them off.
	They've debanked them.
	PayPal canceled my account, canceled Zach Voorhees' account, and thousands of other conservative accounts, or not even conservatives.
	You know, we're not...
	Like Voorhees and myself, we're not just straight-up conservatives.
	We're just pro-human, pro-liberty people.
	We get our accounts canceled for what?
	Because of our belief system?
	Because we believe in liberty?
	Well, see, so the debanking happened to us first.
	Putin is just the next victim of it, not the first victim.
	And so what has happened in all of this dynamic is With Canadian banks looting the accounts, sanctions against Putin being also unleashed against the American people, what's happening now is anybody in the know Their faith in the banking system is gone.
	It's just gone.
	And what the banks and the governments have proven is that you can never trust government-regulated banks ever again.
	Ever again.
	Because they will steal your money, they will freeze your money without any due process whatsoever.
	And then there was that story about that guy who was working for Amazon.
	This was a week or two ago.
	And the guy...
	Apparently he was buying property for Amazon, and then one day Amazon accused him of getting, I think they accused him of getting kickbacks from the people selling the property.
	So the FBI shows up at his door, I think they raided his house, terrorized his family, and they locked up Something like a million dollars in money or $800,000, something like that, of the family's money.
	And his wife, I think she was like a doctor or an attorney or something.
	She's a high income earner.
	It's not like he got all this money from bribes or anything.
	His spouse was earning money too.
	The FBI just stole all this money, froze it for something like two years without any explanation, and they were never charged with a crime.
	And they never got to face a jury, no day in court, nothing.
	And then magically two years later, the FBI unfroze something like $500,000 or $600,000 or something.
	It's like, ah, here, we decided you can have some of your money back, you know, go climb a tree or whatever.
	This can happen in America.
	You can be completely innocent of everything.
	And you can have your bank accounts completely looted, seized, stolen.
	Your entire life savings can be stolen if it's in the banking system.
	So now, what does this have to do with crypto?
	Well, now the dynamic has changed.
	And so my analysis and my views have changed.
	I'm updating my views on this right now.
	And here's my current view.
	Despite the risks of crypto, despite the speculative environment in certain crypto coins, despite all the hype, despite the scams that are out there, and all the other things I mentioned, despite all that, the risk of your money now being stolen, lost, or looted out of the mainstream banking system is now far greater than your risk of loss in the crypto system.
	And here's why.
	Because the government, even the Canadian government that tried to seize all the crypto wallets from Canada, they have not successfully seized a single wallet.
	And you know why?
	Because they can't.
	Because they can't.
	Yeah, they can order the exchanges.
	These are the online services that will exchange Bitcoin for Litecoin or Bitcoin for Ethereum or what have you.
	Change the coins for you.
	And they charge a fee for that.
	The online exchanges were ordered to stop recognizing, I think, 34 Bitcoin wallets.
	Well, the only exchanges that comply with that were the very few exchanges that were set up in Canada.
	The exchanges outside of Canada told the Canadian government, you know, go fly a kite.
	We don't have to listen to you.
	We're not under the jurisdiction of Canada.
	And so the wallet holders were able to continue to have their wallets.
	And even if they couldn't exchange them on some of those exchanges, they could still do so privately with other individuals.
	And as long as you hold your keys on your own computer or your own hardware, you hold the crypto.
	I mean, I'll get into some of the technical details here in a minute.
	And I do have a homework assignment for all of you listening to this.
	If you're not yet up to speed on crypto, I've got some homework for you, some simple things.
	To get up to speed, get familiar with this.
	Turns out, I believe now, based on these events, we all have to become fluent in the world of cryptocurrency.
	We all have to know how to use it.
	We all have to know how to spend it, how to make purchases with it, how to acquire it, how to exchange it, how to store it safely.
	But also, we need to know the risks.
	which is what has kept me from this position for quite some time.
	But as I've just explained, the risks of holding crypto are now very small compared to the risks of holding fiat currency in a government-regulated bank at this point.
	So that's what's changed.
	In other words, crypto hasn't really gotten any safer.
	It's just that the rest of the world has become so much more dangerous that crypto now is the perfect storm of the perfect application for crypto.
	This is a milestone moment, I think, in the history of finance where most of humanity realizes, oh my God, we can't trust these banks.
	We can't trust the governments.
	We're being subjected to economic sanctions.
	We're being debanked and demonetized.
	We need an alternative to And thank God, all these crypto geniuses have been building one for the last, I don't know, 15 years or 12 years or whatever it's been.
	They've been building, and just in the last two years, there have been some really amazing advancements to make it simpler and more secure, easier to understand, faster.
	You know, lots of things like that.
	This isn't just Bitcoin.
	Bitcoin was just a starting point.
	There have been many more advancements since.
	And so also as of today, for the first time in many, many years, I now own some crypto.
	I'm not even going to say which crypto I own because this is not a sponsorship thing.
	I'm not telling you what to buy or what not to buy.
	But I own some crypto as of today.
	I've set up a wallet.
	It's a free wallet.
	I'll tell you what wallet I'm using.
	You can get it for free.
	It works on desktops and mobile devices as well.
	Actually, it's just called Exodus if you want to know.
	In fact, one of our listeners recommended Exodus.
	So whoever that was, I want to thank you for that.
	And Exodus is really great.
	Really great wallet.
	And you can install the wallet and run it on your local computer, which puts you in control of the keys, the cryptography keys.
	And in order to use a wallet, you don't have to provide anything.
	No name, no email, no phone number, no ID, nothing.
	You can run your wallet completely anonymously.
	You could use a VPN. Basically, you're taking money Off the cloud or away from the cloud and putting it on your local computing device.
	And there's even a hardware solution.
	What is this thing called?
	Trezor.
	T-R-E-Z-O-R. Trezor.
	That allows you to move your keys off of Exodus and onto this hardware device that fits in the palm of your hand.
	And then that's cold storage.
	That's offline.
	So no one can get to that unless they physically come to your house and take it from you, which is hard for them to do if you're well-armed, obviously.
	So now, let me explain my position on crypto right now since it has changed quite a bit.
	I am still not in the position nor recommending any kind of a speculative buy-and-hold investment mindset approach.
	In my opinion, that's not wise.
	Some of these popular meme coins, they're scams.
	And Bitcoin could be extremely overvalued right now.
	There could be a lot of losses.
	I'm not talking about buying and holding and speculating in coins.
	Some people want to do that on their own, and that's fine.
	That's not what I'm talking about.
	I'm talking about using the infrastructure of crypto to transfer money to Without using the banking system and also to hold assets that you need to be what I'll call near liquid.
	So, for example, You have a certain amount of money in your bank account in order to cover your monthly expenses, such as groceries, paying the electric bill, insurance, and what have you.
	So you need a certain amount of cash.
	So you might have, let's say, a few thousand dollars in your bank account, or maybe you even, you're saving money in a savings account with your bank.
	Let's say you've got $20,000 in a savings account, and you've got $5,000 in your checking account.
	Well, that total of $25,000 can be taken from you at any time without any due process anywhere in the Western world, in the UK, in Canada, in the US, Australia, whatever.
	All they have to do is simply accuse you of, let's say, supporting Russia.
	Or accuse you of being a terrorist.
	And even if it's a complete mistake on their part, or even mistaken identity, they thought you were someone else.
	Oh, you were flagged by a facial recognition camera that has an accuracy of 37%.
	Right?
	They could just take your money.
	Or like the FBI did to that Amazon guy.
	Just show up and take your money.
	So what if instead of keeping savings in a banking institution, you instead put savings into a crypto coin that was a kind of stable coin that was legit, you know, audited, a stable coin tied to either the dollar or tied to gold or silver.
	And I'm not going to mention any specific coins, but there are coins out there that do this.
	Then you could...
	You can move that money away from the banking system, keep it in a near-liquid form, and then only transfer it back into fiat currency whenever you need to pay bills.
	And that way, you keep your bank account close to zero.
	And that way, if the government comes along and tries to seize your funds, they get to seize, you know, like $17 or whatever you ended up with there.
	And that's it.
	They can't seize the rest of your crypto funds because they can't find your wallet.
	They can't seize it.
	They can't order anybody to take it from you.
	They don't have control.
	They literally don't have control.
	Now, they may get a court order at some point to force you to give up control or give up passwords or what have you.
	But long before they do that, you could have transferred it to somebody else.
	Or some other anonymous wallet owned by your dog, you see?
	So, you know, there are lots of ways to keep the assets that you've earned, honestly, to keep them safe and away from the banking system and away from the dishonest governments that are constantly trying to loot you.
	Suddenly, this is the perfect storm use case for crypto.
	This makes total sense.
	Again, now the risk of the banking system looting your account is very high.
	Much higher than the risk of losing it in crypto.
	And by the way, in crypto, if you stay away from the kind of scammy speculative coins and so on, you actually can find a lot of relative stability in certain exchanges and certain wallets.
	Like I mentioned, Exodus.com, that's a free wallet that works.
	You don't need to provide any ID or anything like that.
	It just stores your coins.
	On your computer, with the keys on your local computer, under your control.
	Now, all that said, there is still, of course, systemic risk to what happens if the power grid goes down.
	Then the value of all crypto obviously goes to zero, but at that point you're in a Mad Max, you know, survival apocalypse scenario anyway.
	But Using crypto in order to get to physical gold and silver or to get to a point where you can buy a piece of land is a very smart strategy in my opinion because crypto can be the stepping stone to keeping your assets safe from dishonest criminal governments and banks so that you can then at some point convert those assets into physical things That provide long-term reliability and
	survivability and resilience and so on.
	Which, in my view, is the things I've been mentioning this entire time.
	Gold and silver, land, ammunition, tractors, and so on.
	All the things I've been talking about this entire time.
	Firearms are a good choice.
	You know, we're legal, right?
	Now, if you know that you have assets that you just want to take offline immediately, you don't have to go through crypto to do that.
	You can just buy gold and silver or buy land or buy ammunition and so on.
	Just use your fiat currency to buy those things.
	And I know that's what a lot of us have been doing for quite some time.
	And I will mention then, you know, our sponsor on gold and silver is the Treasure Island Precious Metals Company.
	You can find them at either...
	Just go to metalswithmike.com or brighteonmetals.com.
	Either one takes you there.
	Again, it's metalswithmike.com.
	I don't like to use that URL because I don't want you to think that I'm getting some kind of affiliate earnings on that because I'm not.
	Treasure Island pays a flat fee to sponsor each podcast that they sponsor.
	So the prices are very competitive and they have great delivery.
	They're very honest in how they deal with all our customers.
	And we have great reports about Treasure Island.
	So again, metalswithmike.com if you want to get physical gold and silver right now, if that's the right thing for you.
	But those of you who bought gold last year or six months ago, You've got to be smiling right now because gold is skyrocketing.
	It's over $2,000 an ounce.
	I'm not sure that it's ever been this expensive in the history of gold.
	Is this the highest price ever?
	If not, it's very close to it.
	Oh, and by the way, gasoline is the highest price ever in the history of America.
	Did you know that?
	It's over $4.14 per gallon on average.
	Across all the states, and that's the highest ever.
	Just happened.
	Boom.
	You know, new breakthrough for Joe Biden.
	We're number one on fuel prices and the rapid decline of America.
	We're number one on leaving hardware behind in Afghanistan.
	We're number one at, you know, sanctioning the United States oil industry, but not sanctioning Russia's oil industry, right?
	All kinds of craziness.
	But anyway, if you just want to get physical gold and silver, you know, don't go through crypto to do that.
	But if you need near liquid assets or you need to transfer, Crypto suddenly becomes very practical in ways that can't be matched by the banking system.
	And so I was kind of looking for this situation.
	You've heard me say over the years that I've always supported the idea of decentralized finance and cryptocurrency and the technology and so on.
	And I've always said the central banks were incredibly evil.
	What bothered me about crypto this entire time was all the speculation, all the hype, all the fraudulent stablecoins that are out there, all the scams, all the Dogecoins, all the celebrities pimping their favorite coin.
	It's just a money-making scam.
	It's just really sickening to watch.
	It's like what we need, and I said this all along, what we need is for crypto to become practical and boring.
	Stable, in other words.
	Not up and down every day, not a bunch of speculators, but just people using it to move money, to engage in transactions, to buy and sell goods, to save money or transfer money outside the banking system.
	That's the use case for crypto.
	And now, thanks to the Canadian government going full tyranny, and also thanks to the economic sanctions that have happened due to Putin's invasion of Ukraine, We are now in a situation where suddenly everybody wants a practical parallel financial system, or at least everybody who's informed.
	And so this, I think, can be the critical mass moment for widespread adoption of cryptocurrency.
	And by the way, our store, healthrangerstore.com, we accept Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash, I think Litecoin and Ethereum.
	Those four, I believe.
	And we have accepted those for a long time.
	So one of my homework assignments for you, in fact, is...
	Well, let me just get to it.
	I want you to download and install Exodus.
	And it's Exodus.com.
	And again, it's a free wallet.
	And you don't have to give your ID or anything to install it.
	You're running on your computer.
	You're running on your mobile phone.
	All right, once you've got that installed...
	You don't yet have a way to buy crypto with, let's say, a credit card or with wire transfers, but you can have a friend send you some just to see how it works.
	So ask your friend, hey, send me, you know, like five bucks worth of Bitcoin or five bucks worth of Ethereum.
	Just send it to this wallet, and I want you to learn how to do that if you don't already know.
	Now, I know a lot of you are already experts in this, and you're like, dude, this sounds really basic.
	We all know how to do that.
	Actually, not everybody knows how to do that.
	This is not well known across the population at large.
	You know, the Bitcoin experts, they talk this language every single day, but not everyday people, okay?
	So, especially people on the older side, So, you know, I'm in my 50s and some of our audience, you know, they're in the 60s and 70s.
	And we also have 20-year-olds that listen as well.
	But those who are a little bit up there in the years may have never really been exposed to this.
	So, download and install Exodus, Exodus.com.
	Get somebody to transfer some amount of cryptocurrency to you.
	And then, once you see how that works, I want you to transfer it back to them.
	This little exercise will cost you a few pennies, probably, in transaction fees.
	But you'll see how it works.
	And then, if you want to actually convert some of your fiat currency into crypto, well, then you need what's called an exchange.
	And I've asked around, like, what's the best exchange?
	The simplest one for people to use?
	And everybody says, well, most people say Gemini.
	And the website for that is Gemini.com.
	And no, they're not a sponsor or anything like that.
	It's just Gemini.com.
	And when you create an account there, they're going to ask for all your documentation, okay?
	Date of birth, social security number, copy of your driver's license or passport.
	I think they even require you to do like a selfie or a video of your face, which is why I haven't done that yet.
	I'm not sure I'm ready for that level of commitment to this relationship.
	But I think that if you're okay with that, create an account on Gemini.
	And then you can link your bank account to it.
	You can transfer funds into Gemini.
	And then you can use those funds to buy all kinds of different coins, including some various stable coins.
	Now, you know, I don't recommend Tether.
	I've got a lot of questions about Tether, so that's not one of the coins I would recommend.
	And remember that every coin's got some risk, but what I'm hoping to help everybody do here is to understand how this works and just get some hands-on experience doing it.
	Now, here's the next thing, the next homework assignment.
	I want you to make a purchase online using your Exodus wallet.
	So that means you're going to have to gather up some Bitcoin in your Exodus wallet.
	Either your friend has to send it to you, or you've got to maybe sign up on Gemini and then do a bank transfer.
	One way or the other, you've got to get some Bitcoin in your wallet, or you could get Ethereum in your wallet.
	Now, I don't want you to hold it there because, remember, there's risk for every day that you hold it.
	Bitcoin could crater.
	Ethereum could crash, you know?
	This is not about holding it, at least not in my strategy here.
	This is about using this, understanding how this works outside the banking system.
	But gather up some Bitcoin or Ethereum and then make an online purchase at an online retailer that accepts cryptocurrency.
	And it doesn't even matter how big or how small the purchase.
	It's about knowing this process.
	Understanding how this works, what it means to send Bitcoin, why does it take a while for it to clear, what are confirmations, what's gas on Ethereum, just getting familiar with this world.
	Of course, HealthRangerStore.com accepts these Bitcoins, but there are also many other retailers.
	So there's one retailer that accepts Bitcoin, and that's Botach.
	B-O-T-A-C-H. And I'm a customer of Botach.
	And Botach sells, like, survival gear.
	You know, boots and shooting glasses and all, like, pouches and things, backpacks.
	Some of it's surplus gear.
	Anyway, the only reason I mention them is because they accept Bitcoin.
	So you could go on to there and you could buy something.
	Or you could buy something at our store if you want to, if you need something.
	I'm not saying make an extra purchase if you don't need it.
	Just wait until you need something.
	And then do it with Bitcoin instead of a credit card.
	Or do it with Ethereum instead of a credit card.
	And again, You're not going to keep your money in Bitcoin in this experiment.
	So you don't want to be subjected to that risk of holding it.
	You're just going to go through Bitcoin.
	You're going to use it as a transaction system, which is, I think, its greatest strength.
	A transaction system.
	Or Ethereum, which I think is actually an even better system.
	Or Litecoin and so on.
	And there are other coins built on Ethereum.
	Many, many to choose from, like thousands to choose from.
	But we only accept four at the Health Ranger store.
	And Botak, I'm not sure.
	They probably only accept a few as well.
	And then when you get your order from wherever you bought something from, then I want you to just kind of connect the dots in your head.
	It's like, wow, I made a purchase outside the credit card transaction system.
	I did not use the banks.
	This was all done away from the prying eyes of a tyrannical criminal regime or away from the banking system.
	This is a parallel financial world transaction, and it works.
	It works.
	Because I think that the day is coming for all of us where we are going to need to exist completely outside the mainstream financial system.
	Because the mainstream financial system is basically engaged in financial terrorism against its own customers.
	Now, a couple of warnings for you on all of this.
	Number one, watch out for the fees if you exchange one type of coin for another.
	So if you have Bitcoin and you want to trade it for something else, some other kind of coin, on an exchange like Gemini or in your wallet like Exodus, then they can charge you 3% in some cases.
	That's a lot.
	It shouldn't be that expensive.
	Sometimes the fees are a lot less.
	Sometimes it's just a few pennies.
	But make sure you understand the fees because if you start moving...
	A significant amount of money around and moving it in and out of coins, they could be taking a couple of percent every time you do that and you end up like, where'd all my money go?
	Well, you just paid it to all the exchanges, you know?
	Made too many exchanges, it turns out.
	That's not a good deal.
	And the second big warning in all of this is I agree with Catherine Austin Fitz in her overall understanding that she believes Bitcoin was created by the deep state.
	And that there's been a lot of infiltration of the crypto ecosystem by the Rockefellers and globalists and so on.
	And I don't know which coins they're behind.
	But I also know there are a lot of pro-liberty people, and there are what's called privacy coins or zero-knowledge coins, such as Zcash, and Z stands for zero.
	And zero-knowledge means they don't know anything about you.
	The transaction basically destroys knowledge on both ends of the transaction, so it's not traceable, whereas Bitcoin is completely traceable because the entire blockchain is a public ledger.
	So I think the future of cryptocurrency in the parallel banking system or the parallel financial transaction system that is now growing is going to be actually getting away from Bitcoin and getting away from anything run by globalists and getting into more privacy coins or zero-knowledge coins that tend to be run by more libertarian-minded groups I
	think that's actually the future is the privacy coins.
	And now there is going to be a day when the central banks try to launch their digital currency and they say to everybody, come on over to our platform, the Central Bank Digital Currency, CBDCs.
	And some people like Catherine Austin Fitz believe that Bitcoin is kind of a stepping stone into that trap to get people used to crypto so that then it's easy for them to move over to the CBDCs.
	Well, let me tell you, the CBDCs are a mark of the beast.
	Pure evil.
	You don't want your money in any system controlled by the central banks because that is total control over your life.
	That is pure evil.
	Never do that.
	Resist that with everything.
	And there's going to be an effort one day by the federal government here in America, for sure, to try to outlaw competing cryptosystems.
	Or they might try to criminalize buying and selling dollars in and out of those systems.
	And that's going to hurt the prices a lot.
	Bitcoin could really crater if that is announced.
	I mean, Bitcoin could crash 90% or more.
	It could go down to $4,000 or $3,000.
	That shouldn't hurt you if you're not keeping money in Bitcoin.
	You're just using it as a flow-through of On a transactional basis in order to make online purchases, for example, outside the banking system.
	So that's why I say don't expose yourself to the price risk of Bitcoin, but use it for a transactional system.
	But beware, beware of the central banks jumping in on this and do not ever join a central bank digital currency system.
	I will never do that.
	So in summary here, I hope you appreciate that my position on crypto is very realistic.
	It's not based on hype.
	It's not based on speculation.
	I'm not pimping some altcoin that was created and that paid me to pimp the coin or anything.
	I'm not into that.
	I'm telling you about the risks that exist, but also about the importance of knowing how this system works and being able to use it because we are all going to be targeted and terrorized by our own banks and our own governments.
	And if you leave your money in the traditional banking system, do not be surprised if it vanishes soon.
	They'll just claim cyber attack.
	Cyber attack.
	Took it all down.
	All your money's gone.
	Too bad.
	FDIC's broke.
	Well, you might say, well, crypto can also be destroyed by a cyber attack.
	Well, not if you have it in your own offline wallet, your cold storage wallet.
	It's safely in storage.
	In other words, the blockchain still exists, and as soon as the internet comes back up, you would be able to once again use that.
	No one can seize it from you.
	Whereas banks can just do a bail-in and just take your money and the government will let them do that.
	Just look at the Greece financial panic.
	I don't know.
	How many years ago was that?
	They just said, oh, it's a bail-in.
	Your money is now ours.
	Isn't it great to be the bank?
	Okay, and one more practical thing here.
	If there are any merchants out there or retailers that are selling firearms or ammunition or survival gear and you accept cryptocurrency, Please contact us and let us know about that because I'd like to put together a guide of the different retailers that are accepting crypto that offer really practical survival goods.
	I'd like to put together kind of a PDF or maybe mention the list here on the podcast if it's short enough.
	So spread the word, folks.
	Reach us.
	The email is situationupdate at protonmail.com.
	Okay?
	Situationupdate at protonmail.com.
	If you accept crypto and you sell firearms or ammunition or survival and preparedness gear.
	Love to put together that guide and then maybe we can help more people have practical uses for what to do.
	With their various, you know, crypto coins to actually convert them into real physical things, which I think should be the ultimate goal.
	You know, a transaction system.
	Not to just hold the crypto, but to end up with things in your hands.
	Remember what Steve Quayle says, if you can't touch it, you don't own it.
	And then also in the world of crypto, people say, if you don't own the keys, or let's see, if you don't control the keys...
	Then you don't own the crypto.
	So that means you don't want to go join an online wallet like Coinbase.
	I strongly recommend against Coinbase because, at least as I understand it, Coinbase then has, they control your keys.
	And then they can seize or halt.
	I mean, they control your coins if they have your keys.
	This is why you should install Exodus instead because Exodus is your wallet and your encryption keys are on your local system.
	So you control them.
	That's the difference.
	And one more thing.
	Notice I haven't mentioned...
	I'm not recommending any specific crypto.
	You might be into XRP. You might be into...
	I don't know, Bitcoin Cash.
	You might be into Ethereum, whatever.
	In my opinion...
	If I were going to put something into crypto for some period of time, I would want it to be stable.
	So I would want a stable coin, but I'd want a stable coin backed by gold and silver, not backed by the dollar.
	So if you choose stable coins out there, and again, I don't recommend Tether.
	There are other stable coins to choose from.
	Personally, I would not choose one that is tied to the dollar.
	I would choose one tied to gold.
	Or silver, for that matter.
	Why?
	Because gold and silver are going to go up significantly.
	I was watching interviews this morning, several of them, different experts, predicting gold going to hit 2,500 or 3,000.
	Another expert said 3,000 to 5,000, I think, in the next 18 months.
	And they offered reasonable explanations for why.
	Oh, because the cost of mining is going to go up, because the cost of fuel is going up.
	And people are freaked out about war.
	And when people are worried about war, gold skyrockets.
	People want something that's reliable.
	So if you had crypto that was tied to gold or silver, it could conceivably go up in value as those metals go up.
	Although that's not my emphasis.
	I'm not about speculation.
	I'm about keep it boring.
	Keep it stable.
	We don't want the price to move too much.
	But it's very doubtful that the metals are going to go down.
	Very doubtful, at least in my mind.
	But you make your own decision.
	Do your own research, obviously.
	Take your own risks.
	Or spread the risks around.
	Just remember, at the end of the day, it doesn't count until it's in your hands, okay?
	The only thing that ultimately counts when the whole system comes tumbling down, the only thing that counts is the roof over your head, the land beneath your feet, The AR-15 in your hands, the ammo in the magazine, the gold coins in your pocket, the food in your pantry.
	Those are the only things that actually count, just to be clear.
	The diesel fuel that you have stored in barrels or whatever you've got.
	Physical stuff matters.
	That should be your end goal, at least in the financial sector here.
	Oh yeah, and used vehicles.
	Don't forget about that, right?
	Used tractors and used cars and used trucks.
	I mean, those have gone up in prices so much.
	It's incredible.
	And even these days, it might be worth just buying reels of copper.
	Just have a...
	I got a thousand pounds of copper!
	And your neighbor's like, why?
	Because it's going to double in value over the next year.
	You know, everybody needs copper.
	Just ask any electrician.
	Or maybe it's copper wire.
	If you had stocked up on lumber a couple years ago, you'd be like filthy lumber rich.
	You'd be like, oh, I'm a wealthy lumberjack and I'm okay.
	You know, you're celebrating like wood forever, you know?
	Riches and sawdust blowing in the air.
	Wouldn't even mind the splinters.
	Alright, continuing on, I got a little song idea for you here.
	Now, I don't have time to produce complete songs these days, but they rattled around in my head from time to time.
	And there was a really funny song idea I had the other day, and I wanted to do a rap song about this, and the title was going to be, The Russians Did It.
	So whatever's wrong in your life, pretty sure the Russians did it, because that's what the media is telling us, and that's what the White House is telling us, and that's what Zelensky is telling us.
	Anything that's gone wrong, like you got a flat tire, must be the Russians.
	Russians got your tire flat, right?
	And so, in the world right now today, everybody's got so much tension, and there's so much fear, and there's so much...
	It's like, can we sometimes take a break from that and have a little bit of laughter, even though I'm not trying to take away from the seriousness of the situation at all?
	It's just that it is absurd that everything is the fault of now the Russians.
	It's kind of like in World War II, everything was the fault of the Japanese, you know?
	Now everything's the fault of the Russians.
	So I put together this little song for you here.
	Just an idea.
	Just kind of brainstorm.
	I'm going to beatbox it for you.
	It's just eight lines.
	And it's called, The Russians Did It.
	And I actually asked my editor to do the assembly of this, so I'm recording the beatbox track separately from the lyrics track, and I'm asking him to put these together.
	And I hope he does a good job, because I have no way to review this before it goes live.
	So to my editor, please just make it line up.
	You know, so the song makes sense, and my beats are not going to be perfect, so you may have to, like, move them, shift them a little bit.
	But here we go.
	You ready?
	This is the beatbox song.
	The Russians did it.
	Here we go.
	Here we go.
	All right there.
	I hope you enjoyed that little song.
	The Russians did it.
	Thank you.
	Just imagine the hilarity if I had unlimited free time.
	It would be an assault on the world of comedy.
	It would just be horrific.
	I've done a lot of rap songs in the past.
	I did I Want My Bailout Money.
	That's a fun one.
	You can search for all these on Brighttown, by the way.
	I did Vaccine Zombie.
	Don't miss that.
	I also did SSR Lies.
	That's about the psychiatric drugging of children.
	And a few other interesting songs as well.
	But I wanted to do a new song when I lost my voice a few weeks back.
	I was actually working on that song.
	And it was coming along.
	It was pretty darn funny, actually.
	I've got some lyrics for it, but I just...
	What shifted in the world, you know, with the war, the Russians and the Ukrainians and the economic sanctions, like that song idea didn't fit anymore.
	So I'm looking for, I have to kind of transform that song into something different.
	But I'm working on it.
	We'll see what happens.
	If I get some time, if I'm in a musical mood, maybe I'll just crank something out on a weekend.
	We'll see.
	And, you know, one other note, if there's somebody out there who is an animator who could do, who's interested in doing a little cartoon with me on this, I mean, something short, something really funny, we could do a little cartoon song on the topic of your choice, you know, something really, really hilarious and impactful, and maybe it could be about, you know, Let's Go Brandon or something.
	Maybe that's kind of outdated at this point, but something new, something funny, we could work on that together.
	We'd be like, everything that Biden did to Putin, he did to us first.
	You know, it could be a country-western like, everything that Biden did is not as bad as what happened when I lost my dog and lost my house and my truck.
	And you can think of what words rhyme with that in subsequent verses involving the White House.
	There we go.
	You know, seriously, humor is one of the things that's going to get us through all this, but also faith.
	And I failed to mention that these last few days, and that's my fault.
	We talk about preparedness, and we talk about being ready, and talking about having wheat berries, extra food, because did you see that wheat prices are going limit up day after day after day?
	It's the limit of the trading price increase.
	But I have neglected to mention the Bible and the spiritual preparedness that goes with all of this.
	And I was thinking about this today.
	Remember when Nancy Pelosi was rubbing her hands, celebrating soldiers by the burn pits in the fires, and what that has to do with the Old Testament, parents throwing their children into the fires, the child sacrifice.
	I was thinking, you know, this is all the same history, nothing new under the sun.
	It's all the same thing coming right back.
	And it's the same failures of humanity.
	Failure to recognize the rules, the law of God, really.
	The pro-human laws that were laid down for us and explained from time to time, in one case via Moses, but in other cases via the wrath of God, it's like, you want to learn your lesson?
	Wait till you see this.
	Like, frogs start falling out of the sky.
	It's like, what do we do wrong?
	Think about it.
	Guys, think about what you just did.
	What that has to do with the locusts and the plague and the die-off and the starvation and the crop failures and everything that's going on.
	So here we are in our world today with the plagues and the crop failures and the droughts and probably Planet X doing a flyby and volcanoes and earthquakes and things.
	And everybody's still asking, like, what's going on?
	What did we do wrong?
	Maybe it's because you're still murdering babies.
	Right?
	And so there's a spiritual war going on and we must never forget that.
	I was talking to a young man today who was a listener to this podcast.
	I just met him.
	I'm not going to give his name, but he told me he's 26 years old.
	He's probably listening to this.
	And he said something really profound.
	He said, you know, each round of this is going to get more and more difficult.
	Each round of the challenge that God gives us here, or that, well, let me correct that.
	It's a challenge that Satan has.
	He's actually trying to create for us, but God is seeing us through.
	And each round becomes more and more difficult.
	And think about when we first had the COVID lockdowns and the masks and the shortages.
	And at first, most people thought, this is terrible.
	This is the worst.
	You know, there's no toilet paper.
	Turns out that was just the warm-up round.
	Wait till you have no bread.
	If you thought no toilet paper was bad, wait till you have no bread.
	Because that's coming.
	Due to the wheat scarcity and the food inflation and everything, right?
	So the second round is much more intense than the first round.
	And I'm pretty sure this isn't going to be over in just two rounds.
	If you consider COVID round one and then this world war, or what could become a world war, round two, what's round three?
	What is round three?
	I think it's going to be more difficult.
	That's what this young person was telling me on the phone.
	I was like, this is going to get more difficult with each round.
	And we might be looking at, of course, round three, another biological weapon release, you know, the Bill Gates special.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Open up that vial.
	Take a sniff.
	See what's in there.
	You know, 12 monkeys at the airport.
	It's invisible.
	Remember that scene?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, there's nothing in there.
	Take a nice deep breath and be sure to exhale in the opposite direction.
	Bill Gates' special cyber attacks on the financial infrastructure.
	This is what we're talking about here.
	It's like, oh, you thought you had numbers in your account.
	Guess what?
	All the circuits are down.
	All the interwebs have stopped functioning.
	Now you have nothing.
	Right?
	Cyber attack.
	Or just nuclear war.
	Just you wake up one morning, giant flash in the sky, followed by a mushroom cloud.
	You're looking out your window like, uh, is that a nuke?
	You know, the radio's like, it's a nuke, it's a nuke, everybody see it, cover it.
	And you're thinking, wow, it really is.
	We've really come to this point.
	Okay, this is going to be another level of complexity and maybe courage or what have you.
	And the crazier this gets, it accomplishes two things.
	Number one, for those people of faith or of courage, it hardens their faith and Because it tests it, right?
	It tests it.
	Can you stay true to yourself and true to God during these times of incredible upheaval and of difficulty?
	But the second thing it does is it also eliminates people who fail that test because, I'm sad to say, there are going to be a lot of suicides.
	We've already seen that with COVID. A lot of young people killing themselves because of the lockdowns and the masks and so on.
	And sadly, you know, they didn't have anybody to connect to or they felt alone or they felt like life was hopeless.
	Like, what's the point of being here?
	Can't even go to school and meet with friends anymore.
	You know, when I was in high school, we were begging for days off.
	But when you have a whole year off, you're begging to go back to school.
	You know, it's like you miss it.
	I can't imagine growing up without the social interaction that we had in school.
	So it's very sad that a lot of young people are killing themselves, but that's going to expand to a lot of adults when the famine really kicks in, which is only months away at this point, as we covered yesterday.
	And this is where faith is so critical because think about the poor, sad souls out there that don't believe in a higher power who are atheists.
	And they think there's nothing out there.
	It's just a great nothingness.
	And they think there's no reason for existence, that we just spontaneously came into being through random permutations in the cosmic fabric of reality.
	And boom, just we're all here.
	That's their whole belief system.
	So they don't have anything higher to believe in when times get difficult.
	Whereas someone of faith can make it through a very, very difficult time.
	They can make it through famine.
	I mean, look at history.
	Look what many of the Christians have already endured.
	They can make it through incarceration.
	They can make it through collapse.
	They can make it through wars.
	And even in the cases where they die in the process or in the experience of war, at least they died with faith.
	They died with their faith intact, which means they go on to survive in the afterlife as well because they know that this isn't just about this life here, this little temporary short experience of inhabiting some structurally organized molecules for a period of time known as a lifetime, after which the molecules deconstruct and are recycled into other beings.
	I mean, you know that, right?
	You know you're like a standing, organized symphony of molecules that are only temporarily coordinated.
	Yeah.
	And when they disassemble at some point, you know, your body is nothing more than some minerals and some water, ash, you know, ashes to ashes, right?
	But that's not you, is it?
	A pile of ash is not you.
	There's something more to you than a pile of ash and dust.
	There's your spirit, your soul, your consciousness, your mind, your creativity.
	All these things transcend the physical body.
	And that means that you are more than your physical body, obviously, which means that your purpose here is more than interaction with a physical world, isn't it?
	Your purpose here is a greater purpose.
	It is a spiritual purpose by definition.
	Otherwise, you wouldn't have a spirit.
	Your purpose here is to express consciousness and creativity and to experience joy or even mockery, dare I say, like I do sometimes with these silly songs and so on.
	Your experience is more than physical.
	Your purpose is more than physical because our reality is more than physical.
	It should be self-evident.
	In fact, people have to be brainwashed to not believe these things.
	If you go throughout the cultures of world history, Even the simple civilizations where they've never been taught anything about really God or the cosmos, they automatically have a spiritual worldview.
	Why?
	Oh, is it superstition?
	Is it because they're not educated?
	No, it's because it is a common thread of reality that courses through the hearts and minds and souls of men and women everywhere across this planet.
	People have to be actually brainwashed by Satan in order to not believe in the spiritual world or to not believe in God.
	Think about that.
	the Satanists and all those who follow them are actually the ones who are brainwashed into a demonic cult, a cult where they murder children.
	Speaking of that, LifeSite News ran a story.
	There's a Maryland law that's being proposed that would allow babies to be killed 28 days after being born.
	You know, it's an infanticide law in Maryland, which is run by demons, of course, with a D next to their name, right?
	Demons, Democrats, Demon Rats, Democrats, Demonic Rats, whatever it is, it's all D. So it's Maryland and New York, but in Maryland they want to say, oh, you had your baby?
	You have 28 days to decide if you'd like to murder it.
	Now, on day 29, that's unethical.
	On day 29, it's illegal.
	On day 29, it's a criminal offense.
	On day 28, it's a mother's choice.
	It's women's health, they say.
	No, it's murder not only on day 1, not only on day 0, it's murder on day minus 3.
	Nine and a half weeks or conception day or 10 weeks.
	What is it?
	It's murder on conception day if you murder the child because that's when life begins.
	Now think about this.
	If they can extend the murder window of children out to 28 days, they could extend it to a year, couldn't they?
	Right?
	They can extend it to several years.
	I've even heard liberals argue that it's okay, in their view, to murder babies up until the day they can speak.
	Because once they can talk, then they're alive.
	But if they can't talk, there's no expression, they say, of life, and therefore it's okay for them to murder their babies who can't yet talk.
	They can scream, though, by the way, not to get too graphic.
	They can definitely scream But I guess Democrats don't count that as communication or anything.
	Oh, it's just your tissue.
	It's just your tissue.
	It's just outside your body for a year.
	You can just murder it if you want.
	Now, do you think on the spectrum of spirituality, is that on the satanic side or is that on the God side of things?
	Not clear.
	Oh, it's the satanic side.
	Isn't it?
	To murder human babies, but that's what Democrats do, and that's what they celebrate, and those are the laws they try to pass everywhere, if not for conservatives opposing those laws.
	If Democrats had a monopoly power, political power over America, they would make it legal to murder babies everywhere for several years after they're born.
	Like, it's always your choice.
	It's a choice, and the choice lasts for years, and you can choose whenever.
	You can just see these, you know, these Democrats, if these laws were to become reality, the permission of murder children up to age five or six, you know, you can just see the Democrat liberal mom.
	Oh, no, you didn't do that, child.
	I brought you into this world.
	I can show as hell take you out.
	I mean, back in the 70s, some parents would say that anyway, but it was a threat that no one took seriously.
	It's not like you're actually going to go murder the child.
	Today, in the 2020s, the Democrats want to make that law.
	Now, because the challenges against all of us here, the obstacles, are going to become increasingly difficult, because this is the way Satan operates, it means that we're going to have to become more resourceful, I'm better able to adapt to what's going on.
	We're gonna have to learn new skills.
	We're gonna have to be mentally capable of shifting into a new reality very quickly.
	And if you think about it, these skills This necessity that's being thrust upon us as a method of survival, these are also the skills that will be necessary for humanity to embrace the new golden age that comes after the defeat of the anti-human demonic globalists.
	So in essence, this is kind of a training ground, which I think is one of the ways God sees this world evolving.
	And sees the human spirit, you know, presented into the moment of conception.
	Your consciousness enters the, well, now the developing unborn child, right?
	From that moment, you are part of a testing ground.
	This world is a kind of simulation, but obviously it feels very real and very physical when you're in it.
	And your first person view is very convincing.
	And the flow of time is convincing, and so on and so forth.
	But just to make it interesting, they wipe your memory before you get here.
	It's like, yeah, try this.
	Spend a lifetime.
	See if you can figure out who you are and why you're here.
	Good luck.
	Bye.
	Zoom.
	And then suddenly you're inside some woman's womb.
	Right?
	And your brain isn't even developed yet.
	It's coming along.
	Little by little, you develop the neurology to slowly figure out who you are, and sometimes that takes a lifetime.
	But this is a testing ground, you see.
	And the harder the test, the bigger the prize is.
	If it were easy to be here, it wouldn't be much of a test.
	There wouldn't be much of a recognition or reward on the other side of it.
	So we're being presented with some of the most difficult tests that human civilization has ever faced.
	A global biological weapon, COVID, followed by a global extermination vaccine that's never been seen before, followed by global famine.
	And maybe thermonuclear war or terrorism or dirty bombs or cyber attacks, banking collapse, whatever.
	You're like, wow!
	I didn't sign up for this.
	Actually, you did.
	We all did.
	We just didn't know it at the time.
	We signed up for this because we are the kind of people who were put here because we're capable of handling this.
	It's not going to be easy.
	But you're also not a weak soul.
	Just by definition, the fact that you're listening to this, that you hear these words means you are not a weak soul.
	You are a very strong, powerful soul.
	Stronger and more powerful than you might suppose, in fact.
	In fact, this was brought to my attention recently.
	There are two places in the Bible where it is said that—and I know I'm going to get into all kinds of trouble over this because this is not taught in most of the conventional churches—but it is said that you are God's.
	That you are gods, that you are of God, and that you are, in fact, well, in essence, ordained to be powerful spiritual beings yourself.
	One of those locations is Psalm 82, verse 6, but reading up to that, They do not know, nor do they understand.
	They walk about in darkness.
	All the foundations of the earth are unstable.
	I said, you are gods, and all of you are children of the Most High.
	But you shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.
	So it means that you are mortal as human beings.
	Oh, and after that it says, Arise, O God, judge the earth, for you shall inherit all nations.
	But it could be interpreted, what this is saying is that you are children of the Most High, meaning you are an expression of God yourself, that you are God.
	And not to replace the Father, obviously, but to say that you are God.
	In the image of God, and that you may, in fact, be far more powerful than you might have been told.
	And then there's another section, John 10, verse 34, begins, Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, quote, I said you are God's, end quote.
	And that's quoting God.
	And According to the research here, in Hebrew, that word God is Elohim, which is the root Hebrew word for God.
	It's the same word as the God, Elohim.
	continues in verse 35, if he called them gods to whom the word of God came and Scripture cannot be broken, do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, quote, you are blaspheming because I said I am the Son of God?
	Essentially what Jesus is saying is Why are you questioning when I say I'm the Son of God, when in fact all of you are gods?
	That's essentially what he's saying.
	At least that's my understanding.
	Again, with the disclaimer, I'm not a Bible scholar, and other people know a lot more about this subject than I do.
	But I'm approaching this from a...
	I think an innocent perspective here is saying the message from God, at least as I see it, is that you are incredibly powerful because He's the creator of the entire universe and He created you and He granted within you An extraordinary amount of power through your consciousness, through your mind, through your soul.
	And some of this is expressed through your creativity and your first person perspective and so on.
	You have the ability to create worlds with your consciousness.
	In fact, you are helping to create the world right now.
	Through your observation, your perception of it.
	You are, in essence, co-creating the world around you through your interaction with it.
	We are far more powerful than most of us ever realize.
	But I believe that one of the reasons for this testing ground that we all share right now is because God wants to know if you can pass the test of deserving this power, this godlike power.
	Can you pass the test?
	In other words, here as a human being, can you pass the test of compassion, morality, honesty?
	Can you help others?
	Do you treat others with a sense of kindness?
	Do you share information and knowledge freely with others?
	Or do you covet it for yourself?
	Do you try to withhold things from people or do you try to allow the things you know and the things you have to flow through you and to help enrich others?
	I think these are some of the key questions.
	Do you respect life?
	Even the life of not just the unborn child, but now I guess the post-born child.
	This is one of the key questions in modern politics.
	And if you pass this test, after you leave this world, then you shall experience, I believe, an afterlife of unfathomable power to create worlds, perhaps to work in service of God in other universes. perhaps to work in service of God in other universes.
	Have you ever thought about that?
	Maybe, you know, you become in charge.
	Like, here, you take care of that universe over there.
	That parallel reality needs a little bit of help.
	And we've got other souls taking care of these other universes.
	You know, it's the multiverse.
	And every universe needs a little help.
	Tweak it a little bit from time to time.
	You ever thought about that as maybe what this is all about?
	Like, this is the testing ground to see how well you do?
	To see if you can help the Creator run things in the greater universe?
	Hmm.
	What an interesting possibility.
	And wouldn't it be a great test to put you here and make you forget that you are gods?
	Just make you totally forget.
	Like, ah, good luck figuring it out.
	We'll make you think that you're totally weak and you have nothing.
	And by the way, the angels are here to serve us as our guides and our protectors.
	The angels are not gods.
	The angels are the protectors of the creations of God, which is you and I. And by the way, Satan is not God either.
	Satan has less power than you.
	Do you know that?
	Because Satan is a fallen angel.
	Satan never had even the potential to have the power of God.
	Satan never even had the potential to have the power of you or I or any one of us.
	Any one of us is more powerful than all the power of Satan.
	And together, we can easily defeat Satan by acting in a way, behaving with congruence to God's wishes for life and for civilization and for our world and so on.
	So I invite you to think about that perspective.
	Most people haven't ever thought of it that way.
	In fact, I hadn't thought about it that way until recently either.
	But Satan can never become a god.
	Satan can never defeat God.
	Satan can't even defeat you.
	The only way that people, that their lives are turned over to Satan is if they volunteer it.
	They themselves have to surrender to the dark side, so to speak.
	If they decide to go along with Satan, then Satan takes the man and says, yes, we'll use you.
	And you, you know, you run Canada or whatever.
	Here, you lead the CDC, you know, all the Satan's minions.
	You run Google.
	Be pure evil.
	That's their slogan.
	But if you say no, remember this, Satan can never force you.
	Satan can't get in your head and make you do things like a puppet.
	The people who go along with Satan, they have to agree to do so.
	It is their choice.
	And then they fail the test.
	They fail the great cosmic test.
	And even though they have the power of gods, they make themselves subservient to To a demonic entity that is lower than they themselves.
	Isn't that remarkable?
	Just incredible.
	I mean, you could be partners with God in the cosmos.
	Instead, you're a slaver for Satan in hell.
	Why would anybody choose that?
	But people do every day.
	Just amazing.
	All right, a couple of sponsors here, and I may have some final comments.
	The Satellite Phone Store is out of satellite phones, as I mentioned the other day.
	They do have the two-way satellite text messaging devices.
	They're called Bivy Sticks, and those are available.
	They still have some.
	I think they have some left.
	Just go to sat123.com, contact the Satellite Phone Store there.
	You can find out about the Bivy Sticks.
	They'll work in emergencies.
	You can send and receive pretty long text messages.
	And you just use your mobile phone to compose and to read the messages, but it doesn't rely on cell towers.
	It uses satellites, actually, to talk.
	This little tiny device about the size of, what do they say, an ice cream sandwich.
	And it talks in satellites.
	Pretty amazing tech.
	The second thing to mention is we have, at the Health Ranger store, we have organic coconut milk powder.
	That can be used as a coffee creamer or a tea creamer.
	And the reason I mention this is because not only is it super delicious, but a lot of the coffee creamers out there are nothing but partially hydrogenated, genetically modified soybean oil.
	That's coffee creamer for the most part.
	I mean, look at the ingredients.
	You'll be shocked.
	It's like, what?
	I've been drinking hydrogenated oil?
	Soybean oil or other cheap oils?
	You could be drinking delicious coconut milk powder in your coffee or in your tea.
	It's really good.
	The taste is just amazing, and it's much better for your health.
	We've got that available now.
	It's certified organic.
	It's at the Health Ranger store.
	Just go to healthrangerstore.com and try that in your coffee.
	Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
	Put that in your coffee and drink it.
	You're going to love it.
	It's very, very good.
	And then the other thing that we have is back in stock is ahi flour oil.
	Now, very few people know about this.
	Ahi flour, it's A-H-I. And it's a plant-based, you could say a plant-based fish oil.
	Obviously, it's not from fish.
	We don't sell fish oils because I'm not happy about the fish supply chain situation.
	That's a different podcast.
	But Ahi flower is from a plant, and it's a plant that has a really amazing oil profile that's rich in the kind of oils you normally only get from fish.
	And if you take this oil, I love it.
	How to say this?
	I have to be careful what I say here.
	It can help support normal blood flow.
	Circulatory ease or what would be the right way to say that.
	Good for your blood.
	Supports natural blood health.
	And can you think about any reason these days why it might be good to support normal circulation and blood and, you know, blood platelets staying equidistant from each other in a way that is normal and healthy?
	Could that be important right now?
	Well, This is one of the reasons why I recommend healthy oils and, of course, staying away from canola oil and soy oil and, you know, all the other cheap seed oils, cotton seed and everything.
	Check out ahi flour oil.
	It's back in stock at healthrangerstore.com.
	And I got to tell you, there's never been a time, I think, more important to have good nutrition and also think about what's coming.
	You know, what is coming our way?
	So actually, I've got two other things to remind you here.
	One is about anthocyanins.
	Remember that anthocyanins are the molecules in plants that provide the pigmentation.
	So in blackberries, this is what makes them black.
	In blueberries, it's what makes them blue.
	In eggplant, it's what makes the skin purple.
	And you can find it in purple corn and red carrots and so on, like dragon carrots or whatever they're called.
	These are anthocyanins.
	It's also found in some microalgae as well.
	Anthocyanins, remember when I did that article about CD38, which is, this is a glycoprotein that is targeted for overexpression in hemorrhagic fever viruses.
	So if you catch a hemorrhagic fever virus, and there are bioweapons with that, one of the ways it kills you is by causing extreme overexpression of CD38, which causes extreme inflammation in the vascular system and then bleeding and hemorrhaging and so on.
	And although we don't have any proof of this yet, it is a feasible...
	Theory of how molecules work.
	I mean, we know that anthocyanins can help normalize CD38 expression in the body and thereby, just in a regular normal context, help normalize and reduce vascular inflammation.
	That's one of the known roles of anthocyanins.
	Now, can this help you in a global bioweapon plague of hemorrhagic fever virus?
	I don't know, but it's something that we should study.
	And in the meantime, I'm encouraging you to go out and eat more foods that have anthocyanins in them.
	So eat more foods of color.
	FOC. Go out to the grocery store, search out some FOC. It's got to be natural, obviously, not artificial colors.
	It's like, look, mom, it's got FD&C, red number two, red number 40.
	Does that count?
	No.
	Those are artificial colors derived from coal tar.
	That's not going to help you.
	You got to get natural anthocyanins from fruits and vegetables.
	Of course, it's got to be natural.
	But go out and eat more foods of color.
	And remember, the darker it is, the more anthocyanins it contains.
	So there are things that you can do right now to help prepare yourself nutritionally for the next onslaught, whatever it happens to be.
	Whatever bioweapon is coming your way, I have no doubt that there are molecules in the world of fresh fruits and vegetables that could help you survive that.
	I could help you normalize your organ function and organ system function and so on.
	This is not a time to be living on fried foods and junk foods and processed foods and, I don't know, Cricket McNuggets and whatever else they're serving out there these days.
	Get real food and grow it yourself if you have to.
	Remember, I'm growing red oak leaf lettuce, and some of the leaves are red, and the red is anthocyanins.
	So even without growing berries, I've found a way to grow some of these molecules in lettuce.
	Oh, and by the way, if you grow purple cabbage, you got it right there.
	It's in the purple.
	So there's also purple cauliflower.
	Yeah.
	You can take purple cauliflower and you can grind that up and you can make kind of like a purple cauliflower flower.
	You know, like a dried...
	You know, people make pizza crust out of cauliflower these days or you can mix it in with wheat flour.
	You can have like a purple pancake, wheat flour, cauliflower, anthocyanin, anti-hemorrhagic fever virus...
	Flapjack breakfast bonanza, something like that.
	And, you know, your neighbors would look at you like, what are you eating, you crazy person?
	Where do I begin?
	Here, listen to these five podcasts.
	You know, just direct them to some of my podcasts and blow their minds.
	You know, you'll hear their heads exploding next door.
	You'll be eating lunch and just somebody's head explodes across the street.
	Oh, situation update.
	Neighbors' heads exploding.
	One more final thought in all this is that I am astonished in learning how oblivious sort of normies or the masses are to the things that you and I know.
	I mean, think about it.
	You and I, in fact, I was talking, the younger man I was talking to today on the phone who's listening to this, he was explaining that he saw my video about the ultrasonic cleaning machine that you can pour in half water and half vodka, and then you can put in your herbs, and you turn on the machine, and you're doing an herbal extraction very, very quickly.
	It's within minutes you can have an herbal tincture.
	And you can grow those herbs yourself.
	So you can make a tincture.
	You can use birch bark.
	Or, you know, you can extract basically aspirin from...
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	Is that white willow?
	I think it's a white willow tree.
	Salicylic acid.
	But you can do extracts of bark.
	And there's a lot of trees.
	Like in Chinese medicine, there's duzhong, which is...
	What's the English?
	Oh, eucomia bark.
	That, again, it's just bark extract, right?
	Or you can take cinnamon bark and you can extract the cinnamon out of it if you want, and you can make like a cinnamon tincture.
	Or you can grow cayenne pepper and make a cayenne pepper tincture, all kinds of things.
	And so this young person I was talking to said he was out buying vodka.
	And he bought this 100% 200 proof alcohol from an alcohol store and they were freaking out.
	I was like, really?
	You're going to drink that stuff?
	And he said, no, I'm not going to drink it.
	I'm using it to make herbal tinctures with an ultrasonic machine.
	And they had never heard of that.
	They looked at him like he was an alien from planet Zorg.
	Like, what?
	What are you talking about using alcohol to make tinctures?
	And I was thinking, as I was hearing this story, I was thinking, people don't know this stuff?
	Are you serious?
	People don't know this?
	And you and I probably suffer from the same...
	Issue, which is that to us, this is all normal knowledge.
	Like, we understand that plants create molecules that are medicine.
	We understand how to do basic things like extract medicine from the plants using solvents such as water and alcohol.
	This is common things.
	Most of the world doesn't know this.
	They have no clue.
	They don't even know what GMOs are.
	They're just completely clueless.
	Most people don't know the difference between a vitamin and a mineral.
	Do you know that?
	They don't know the difference between an atomic element, like magnesium, and a complex molecule that is a vitamin, like vitamin C. They don't know the difference between those two.
	Like why a plant can create vitamin C, but it can't create magnesium.
	Because magnesium is an atomic element.
	Vitamin C is just a combination of hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen.
	That's it.
	I think to us, this is all common knowledge, but to most people, they never heard that before, ever.
	Now, they're experts on other things.
	Celebrity news and fashion, travel, sometimes sports.
	It just depends on what they're experts on, but they're not experts on anything useful.
	They are the media brainwashed so-called useless eaters as the globalists refer to them.
	Their knowledge is nothing.
	It's even negative knowledge.
	Most of what they know is the opposite of what's true.
	There's a lot of people out there like that.
	We've got to reach them.
	We've got to educate them.
	Turn them on to reality and get them some basic knowledge so maybe they can join the living for the foreseeable future when it's going to be so challenging for people to be among the living.
	People are going to have to figure out where food comes from.
	Cornbread is made out of corn.
	Bread is made out of wheat berries.
	No way!
	You know?
	Hot dogs are not made from dogs.
	You don't want to know what they're made from.
	But we're entering a realm where those who have knowledge are going to do very well.
	Those who have no knowledge are royally, we'll just say nicely twisted, out of luck.
	Not going to do that well.
	So, again, count your blessings, folks.
	And I do every day.
	Let's all count our blessings that we are so informed.
	We are so ready.
	We are spiritually aware.
	We are cognitively informed.
	We are more prepared than most.
	And we're blessed with this incredible connection among all of us who are like brothers and sisters at the spirit level journeying through this grand test of this world where one obstacle after another is being thrown at us and yet we're still here!
	They haven't taken us out, have they?
	We're still here.
	We're still together.
	We still have faith.
	We still have knowledge.
	We still have humanity.
	We still have our hearts and souls and minds.
	And we know how to navigate this.
	We shall prevail.
	Well, because the Bible says we are gods, too.
	Turns out.
	Yeah, I know.
	That's controversial.
	Somebody's going to email me.
	You are not gods.
	Like, speak for yourself.
	I'm just reading the Bible.
	Just reading what it says, man.
	It says you are God's.
	I understand.
	It just means we're created in the image of God.
	He sees us as expressions of the power to create.
	It's very simple.
	I'll probably get somebody's like, I've been reading the Bible for 20 years and you're reading it wrong.
	And my answer will be, I've been reading the Bible for six months and it says what it says.
	So sometimes a fresh perspective is actually the better perspective.
	I haven't been brainwashed by or indoctrinated by so-called Christian churches that are actually run by the globalists.
	So, I'm not haunted by that twisted, wrong perspective of what the Bible says.
	If you have a question, just read it.
	Boom!
	There it is.
	Big, thick book.
	And just, I love it.
	I love the mass of it.
	The mass of the Bible right there.
	And thank you, Bob, for sending me so many Bibles.
	And for all of you who have sent me Bibles.
	Because there's always one handy wherever I need it.
	Here's another one over here.
	This is the I Am Bible.
	Everything from the Word of God is bolded.
	I've got a Bible on every desk around here.
	It's pretty cool.
	I can always look up something when I hear about it.
	All right.
	Thank you all.
	God bless.
	Until tomorrow, take care.
	A global reset is coming.
	And that's why I've recorded a new nine-hour audiobook.
	It's called The Global Reset Survival Guide.
	You can download it for free by subscribing to the naturalnews.com email newsletter, which is also free.
	I'll describe how the monetary system fails.
	I also cover emergency medicine and first aid and what to buy to help you avoid infections.
	So download this guide.
	It's free.
