It's GETTING REAL... Prepping reminders and resources for emergency comms and asset protection
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Wow, with the stuff that's coming down, folks, I'm really glad that we're going to be able to have a firearms training course on brightu.com.
I just interviewed a very special individual who's an expert firearms trainer, and we just talked off camera.
He's going to start putting together that course, so I don't know how long it's going to take.
Definitely, probably two months or something, but maybe three months, who knows.
But we're going to have it for you.
And, you know, I'm even thinking that I might want to be part of some of those videos because I've got a lot of experience to impart on people, just practical things about carrying firearms, using firearms, reloading, you know, presentation out of holsters, and the things that really, really count, and firearm choice, things like that.
But anyway, this whole podcast here is not about firearms.
It's about getting ready for what's coming and the The urgency.
Time is running out.
I'm going to give you some action items here.
One of the most important things is that we are able to keep in touch.
And we now have a solution for that.
It's called brighteon.io.
Go to that website right now.
Sign up.
Get your username there.
This is a decentralized, peer-to-peer, uncensorable platform of speech and emergency comms.
We can distribute to you Tweets, basically, text messages, images, audio files, and video files on a limited basis through that ecosystem, which is built on the bastion.com technology, which is a blockchain-based decentralized system that has no corporate entity behind it, and it cannot be taken down by any government.
Now, if you go to brighttown.io slash applications, then you'll be able to download the apps.
These apps, this is your gateway right here.
This is the key.
You download the app for Windows or for Android phones.
We're working on the Mac app.
It's waiting on Apple, I think.
But Windows, Android, and Linux is available now.
You download the app, and then...
When you run that, it's pure peer-to-peer.
So it does not require any hosted servers.
It does not require any domain name resolution.
Even if the DNS is taken down with the internet kill switch, well, this app will still function.
You'll still be able to get our messages.
My username on this ecosystem is HealthRanger.
And we also have NaturalNews and Brighteon.
But you should register your own names.
You could have more than one if you wish.
And start bringing people to the platform because this is uncensorable decentralized emergency communications.
It cannot be censored.
Not even by the founders, not by me either.
I can't censor anybody on the platform.
There are some simple rules on the platform.
No porn, no direct threats of violence, and no selling drugs.
Those are the three basic rules.
How is that police?
Well, there's a mechanism for consensus voting to ban offending accounts if they're just posting porn, spamming porn all day.
Well, they're going to get banned by a consensus of other users who have a history and a high reputation score on the platform, but it's not centrally controlled.
So there's no corporation making a decision to ban anybody.
There's no one person like Elon Musk making a decision of who to ban and who to allow.
There's no government making a decision.
This is entirely decentralized.
The code is open source, by the way.
All the source code.
Open source, and you can even copy it and use it yourself.
You can join the network if you wish.
So again, brighteon.io is where you go sign up.
And it's got a thriving ecosystem right now of, I don't know, maybe it's a million users or something like that, that already existed on the Bastion platform.
And we're bringing a lot more users to the platform.
So this is it.
This is the backup comms.
That's something you want to definitely take care of.
Get that done right now.
Also, back to firearms, make sure you've got basic firearms training nailed down, safety handling.
Make sure that you know what you're doing with reloads that you know to keep your finger off the trigger.
Make sure that you're competent with your firearms.
Do a lot of dry fire practice.
Go find some instructors.
Go get up to speed in every way that you can.
And make sure you've got a pretty decent ammo supply.
Just get your common ammos like 9mm or 5.56 for rifles.
Or whatever other exotic rounds that you think you want.
And you will be ready then for what's coming.
Because we're living in a realm that's going to become an active war zone.
That's the continental United States of America.
An active war zone.
City by city, town by town.
Warfare will break out.
Because we will be attacked.
We will be attacked by the illegals.
We will be attacked by the foreign operatives that have been staged all across America.
We will be attacked by the narco cartels.
We'll be attacked perhaps through false flag operations carried out by our own treasonous government.
We will be attacked by just violent criminals who are exploiting the opportunity to get what they want.
There could be all kinds of attacks.
There could be nuclear attacks.
There could be cyber attacks on the grid.
There could be a banking takedown system run by the government itself to try to force everybody into CBDCs.
But my point is, we're going to be living in an active war zone.
And you need to have infrastructure in place to be able to feed yourself, to be able to handle your basic first aid medical needs, to be able to handle your own self-defense, To be able to handle barter and trade, so you need systems of value, i.e.
gold and silver, maybe crypto, things that you can barter like ammo.
You're going to need all these systems in place based on what's coming.
Now, I've recorded an entire audiobook on this, by the way, called Resilient Prepping that covers all this.
You can find that, download it for free at resilientprepping.com and it's got a full transcript in there as well.
I strongly encourage you to take advantage of that.
You know, come to think of it, I should run those transcripts through our new improved AI engines and do some summarization.
That would be cool.
Anyway, get off topic.
But there are a lot of resources available for you right now.
Even our AI engine is available.
You can download it for free.
Go to brighttown.ai.
That AI engine, which is currently only in the first version, it's Neo 5.2 Epoch 2 version 0.1, that is being vastly improved with a whole slew of books on prepping and growing food and off-grid medicine survival skills.
Even just when we roll out version 0.2, That's going to be a pretty good prepper knowledge base.
And we're rolling out a larger model based on Dolphin Meestrel 7B. That's a 7 billion parameter model.
You'll be able to download that for free, run it locally, and you'll be able to ask it any kinds of questions about prepping, survival, gardening, food production, nutrition, emergency medicine, emergency dental, you know, whatever.
It has a lot of knowledge in it.
Tons of knowledge.
We are spending a lot of money to train it to make these tools available for you for free.
Remember, we are building the infrastructure of human freedom.
That's my focus.
And so that's why we're...
Making these tools available to you so that you can.
You can be free when food scarcity is weaponized, when the financial system is weaponized, when, you know, who knows what, either foreign invaders or traitorous government or violent gangs or whatever, narco cartels, human trafficking gangs, whatever happens.
When you have these skills and you have these resources, then you are going to be able to operate more freely and more effectively to defend Your home, your family, your town, your community, your state, your nation, your future.
And that's why we're making these tools available to everybody free of charge.
Now, along those lines, don't forget about brighteon.social.
That is the social media website that we've had for several years, and it's a thriving community.
It has a lot of users.
It's a great news feed.
You'll get the breaking news there first.
brighteon.social It's actually built on the same underlying core engine as Truth Social, but we launched ours first.
And I actually think our engine is more refined at this point.
We've got a bigger feature set.
It's not decentralized, however.
Brighttown.social is hosted on central servers and it's reliant upon the domain name working, Brighttown.social domain name, which means that it could be taken down by government authorities or it could be taken down by the internet kill switch.
That's why you've got to also sign up at Brighttown.io, which is resilient to takedowns and is completely decentralized.
All right, now on top of that, You're going to need to have your finances decentralized.
So you're going to need stores of value that are under your control, in your custody, that can't be taken away from you by banks during a bank bail-in, during an engineered banking takedown, a currency failure, or other kinds of events, bank holidays, you name it.
And so that means it's not going to be dollars, right?
It's going to be gold or silver or crypto or land or ammunition, things like that.
We've done...
My co-host and I, Todd Pitner, we've done...
35 plus interviews about decentralization technology.
How to grow food more decentralized.
How to have money that's more decentralized.
How to protect your privacy with a de-Googled phone.
All kinds of technologies.
You can find all those interviews free of charge at decentralized.tv.
Watch the interviews.
You'll learn so much.
Every interview there is evergreen in the sense that It doesn't really expire.
It's not like today's news.
No, it's wisdom that will help you no matter when you watch the videos.
And since they're all free, go ahead and watch all those.
You'll learn an enormous amount of information about decentralizing your life.
Now, just to break it down and keep it really simple in terms of decentralizing assets, you want to have your assets under your own custody, If that's crypto, that means getting it off the crypto exchanges and getting it onto your own local wallet that you control with your own login and your seed phrase so you can recover your wallet.
When it comes to gold and silver, I've got two sponsors in that space.
I'll go ahead and plug them here.
The first one is actually an affiliate relationship with Goldback.
And you can see our website at verifiedgoldbacks.com, plural, verifiedgoldbacks.com.
And there you'll see the lab testing that we did.
Goldbacks are shaped like bills.
They're very beautiful, intricate designs, and they're embedded with real 24-karat gold that is in very precise amounts.
For example, the ones have one one thousandth of an ounce, a troy ounce, of 24 karat gold.
The fives have five one thousandths of an ounce.
So this makes gold very divisible.
It puts it in your custody.
And it has its own intrinsic value because there's gold in the bills, or in the goldbacks.
There's actually gold in there.
Now, it's not a replacement for the dollar.
It's not trying to be currency.
It's just trying to be a different form of gold, and it succeeds.
So check that out at verifiedgoldbacks.com.
And then our sponsor for gold and silver coins.
Which, of course, gold is skyrocketing in value right now.
It's $23.50 per ounce.
Silver is nudging up against $28 and poised to really hold value, I believe.
Metalswithmike.com is the website that gets you to our gold and silver sponsor, which we've been working with them for years, and they're called the Treasure Island Coins and Precious Metals Company.
And they're very trustworthy, they're very knowledgeable, very experienced, and they have a very fair pricing, highly competitive.
You're going to be hard-pressed to find a better deal anywhere.
So give them a call.
Metalswithmike.com.
Fill out the form if you want to get gold and silver.
Now, if you don't have gold and silver, then you're holding on to dollars, let's say, or if you don't have it in some other asset.
If you're holding on to dollars, those dollars are going to become less and less valuable.
We've seen inflation go through the roof.
Even though the government tells you, oh, it's only 3.5%.
No, of course, that's a lie.
Check how much you're paying for auto insurance, huh?
That's gone up 22% in the last year.
How much are you paying for electricity?
How much are you paying for food?
In a lot of these categories, things have gone up 15%, 18%, 20%.
So in the real world, inflation is very bad, and that means your dollar is losing value.
Anybody that's holding onto dollars is losing value.
Even if you're making a return in the stock market, you might think, oh, I'm getting, let's say, an 8% return in the stock market.
Well, real inflation is about double that.
Let's say real inflation is actually 16%.
Well, if you're earning 8% in the stock market, you're losing 8% overall because inflation is 16%.
So you're not gaining anything.
This is why gold and silver are skyrocketing in value, because the dollar is losing value.
It's not that gold is actually going up, it's just that dollars are going down, so it takes more dollars to buy gold.
And that's why I say, you know, buying gold, it's not even speculation.
It's not like you're gonna get a return.
On your investment in gold.
It's not like it's going to pay you dividends or pay you back more in terms of purchasing power.
It's just going to preserve your purchasing power so that you don't lose.
But if you hold on to dollars, you lose.
If you're in the stock market, you lose.
And this is where a lot of people who can't do math, they lose big time because they buy a bunch of stocks and like, man, it went up 10%.
It's going up 12%.
This is awesome.
You know, compounding that, you know, man, in seven years, it's going to double.
The problem is, again, the dollar is being wiped out, so you're not gaining anything.
The only way to make it through all of this is to preserve your assets.
And that's gold and silver.
And now let's talk about crypto, actually.
So crypto has a place in all of this.
Crypto is rapid transactions.
You know, Bitcoin is the king of crypto.
Monero is my favorite privacy coin because of all its privacy features, obviously.
They're very hard to trace, whereas Bitcoin is more of a transparent blockchain.
But Bitcoin has its place, too.
Now, Bitcoin is taking off right now, and it's probably going to go much higher.
I'm not telling anybody to speculate in Bitcoin.
It has, at times, lost a lot, like 70-80% of its value over a few days, but it's always recovered and gone even higher.
Which is fascinating.
And now there's ETFs and now more institutional investors are getting into Bitcoin and so on.
Bitcoin has a place.
I would suggest that every person consider owning 0.1 Bitcoins.
Just mark that on your to-do list and work to acquire 0.1 Bitcoins and just sit on that.
0.1.
Why?
Because it's going to have utilitarian value.
There's going to be things you can do with Bitcoin that you can't do with anything else.
Rapid transactions, international transactions, self-custody, obviously.
I would also, if I were you, I would own something like 10 Monero, which is XMR, because that's a privacy coin.
Get yourself 10 Monero?
And get yourself 0.1 Bitcoin.
I mean, now, look, I'm not your investment advisor.
I don't know your situation.
So don't take this as direct investment advice.
Do your own research.
And don't hold me responsible if these things go down or up.
I don't know where they're going.
But as part of a portfolio of different assets, I believe that every person should at least consider gold and silver.
I mean, frankly, I think everybody should own some gold and silver.
Consider goldbacks as another form, a very divisible utilitarian form of gold.
Consider Bitcoin.
Have 0.1 Bitcoin.
Consider Monero.
Get yourself some Monero.
Learn how to use the wallets.
Learn how it all works.
And then have some ammo.
Have some backup food.
Have some supplies of iodine.
Now you have a massive sort of resource pool for payments or barter.
Where if there's a collapse and you need something from, you know, a friend or a neighbor, right?
Let's say the banks have collapsed, the dollars collapsed, but you need to, I don't know, you need a new tire for your truck because you still have some diesel stored or something.
Well, how are you going to get a tire?
Well, the banks aren't working.
You can't really give people cash.
Nobody wants that anymore because the dollar sucks.
So you're going to be having a conversation with your neighbor that goes kind of like this.
The neighbor says, hey, I got a tire that you need.
I'll sell you the tire.
And you're like, okay, what do you want?
We've got garden seeds, Bitcoin, Monero, gold, silver, goldbacks, 9mm ammo, and some iodine and some chlorine dioxide.
Okay, tell me, like, what do you want?
And then your neighbor's like, oh, I could use a little bit of chlorine dioxide.
I'll take a bottle of iodine.
I'll take like five ounces of silver and 50 rounds of 9 mil ammo.
Okay, you got a deal.
You know, because tires are going to be a lot more expensive at that time.
That's a pretty high price for a tire.
But that's the way it's going to go.
So the more stuff you have across different asset areas, then the more likely you are to meet the demands of the person who's selling you whatever you need, which could be just a spare part for something.
Like, hey, my tractor won't start.
Oh, you need a tractor starter or whatever.
I can't get this to work.
Oh, you need grease for that.
Oh, guess what?
I have axle grease.
I've got a bucket of axle grease.
I will sell you for silver.
And this is the nice thing about gold and silver, by the way.
It's pretty much universal.
And in a financial collapse, people will start using gold and silver very quickly.
So don't worry about, like, right now, you try to pay at the grocery store with silver, and they're going to look at you funny like, what?
Do you have a debit card?
But in the middle of a collapse, it's going to take about two days.
And then all the vendors will be like, oh yeah, we'll take silver.
You have silver?
Try not to flash it around and get mugged, you know?
That's when you need your firearm.
You've got to protect the silver.
So anyway, the more assets you have, the more options you have.
The more food you have, the more options you have.
You get the idea.
So I want you to be prepared.
We talked about emergency comms with Brighteon.io.
We talked about an emergency off-grid knowledge base with Brighteon.ai.
We talked about emergency barter systems, systems of value, gold, silver, goldbacks, Bitcoin, Monero, crypto in general, ammunition, whatever.
Oh, by the way, there's...
There's a barter app that's coming out that will work on Brighteon.io because it's part of the Bastion system, and I think it's called Barteron, but it's not released yet.
It's going to set up three-party barters locally.
So if you have something to trade, like, I've got 37 fresh eggs, and then somebody else is like, I've got 9mm ammo, and somebody else is like, I've got pieces of silver.
And then the three of you can work out a way through the help of this algorithm to trade with each other.
I haven't used the app yet.
I've just heard from Daniel Sachkov that it's coming out.
So I look forward to that.
That can be really handy in these dire times, you know, especially when the banking system craters and you need to trade stuff to get other stuff.
Good to have stuff to trade.
All right.
Anyway, you get the idea.
So the time window for this is growing very small.
So take action now.
Get your backup comms squared away.
Get your backup supply squared away.
Get your assets squared away.
Get your skill sets, your training, your knowledge base, everything you can.
Get it squared away.
Because you're going to need these things based on what's coming.
What's coming is that America will be turned into an active battlefield war zone.
And probably millions of people will die.
Sad to say.
Don't want to see any bloodshed whatsoever.
But, you know, we're watching epic history unfold right now, and it's not pretty.
This is not the pretty chapter of history.
This is the downfall chaos chapter, sadly.
And I think America's days are numbered.
Surviving that chaos is going to take preparation.
And the better prepared you are, by the way, the more people you can help.
You can help family members.
You can help church members.
You can help friends.
You can help your local community stay on its feet and not get overrun by zombies.
And it's always a good thing to have a local community still functioning.
So take all these steps right now, or as soon as you can, and thank you for your support.
If you want to support us, healthrangerestore.com.
That's where you can also purchase backup supplies of certified organic, lab-tested, storable food.
Really high-end food.
Not the cheap...
Garbage, you know, survival food that you see out there.
This is super high-end food, and it is laboratory tested.
We've got number 10 cans of freeze-dried fruits and vegetables, superfoods, nutritional supplements, plus food staples.
We even have back in stock, what is it, organic powdered cream and powdered cheddar cheese with no fillers, no artificial colors, nothing.
It's like pure powdered cheddar cheese.
And we've got goji berries and we've got mangoes and strawberries and kale and all kinds of things.
So check all that out at healthrangerstore.com.
And thank you for listening.
I'm Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
Take care.
Let me share with you what's new at healthrangerstore.com.
We've got an amazing new product, and it's called Golden Milk.
I've got some here on the desk showing you.
Those are some of the new products.
Well, some back in stock.
Cocoa Energize is back in stock.
That's got the mushroom blend in it, including the lion's mane mushroom.
We've also got the ahi flower oil in the green bottles there.
That's the best plant-based oil that's kind of like fish oil, but it's not from fish.
It's only from plants.
But let me tell you about this golden milk.
If you could show my screen, this organic golden milk superfood blend, you just blend it with water and it makes a delicious drink.
Let me show you the ingredients right here.
Look at this.
Coconut milk powder, date sugar, all organic, organic curcumin, turmeric, root powder, ginger root powder, ashwagandha powder.
There's a big immune system modulator right there.
And organic cinnamon powder.
So think about these key ingredients.
It's turmeric, it's ginger, it's ashwagandha, and it's cinnamon, and it's sweetened with date sugar, which is naturally low glycemic.
This is a truly amazing product.
It's super delicious, and it's just loaded with very healthy nutrients.
Available now at healthrangerstore.com.
And we've also got, back in stock now, Organic Coco Energize.
And this has the mushroom blend in it, so not only does it have lion's mane mushroom, but as you can see here, it's got...
Maka powder, reishi powder, chaga, cordyceps, turkey tail, lion's mane, maitake, and shiitake mushroom powder.
Also sweetened with coconut sugar.
So just an amazing blend.
If you love the taste of chocolate and you like the benefits of these medicinal mushrooms, then that's your best product right there.
Coco Energize is back in stock at our store.
And then we also have Organic 7 Treasures Mushroom Powder available at the store, healthrangerstore.com.
This is available now, and it's got the same mushroom blend in it, but it's just concentrated or focused on the mushroom blend without cacao or any other sweeteners or ingredients like that.
So be sure to check that out.
Now let me tell you about two infrastructure projects that are available right now, free of charge, for you to use.
The first one here is brighteon.ai.
So we've released our first artificial intelligence large language model.
It's available now.
You just register with your email address right here, and then you can download the language models free of charge.
They're called Neo.
You can download them to your local computer.
You can run them.
These are special large language model chatbots that we built that are built on base models.
The first one is based on Phi 2.
Another one's coming based on Meastral.
And these allow you to have your own local chatbot with special knowledge in herbs, nutrition, food, gardening, permaculture, all kinds of things like that.
And we're continuing with more training and more waves of training, but also an expanded data set.
This is free for you to use.
We're giving it to the world.
It's non-commercial.
It's open source.
There's no ads on it.
There's no surveillance.
You use it locally, and it's a massive knowledge base, kind of like a Noah's Ark website.
of knowledge that you can have at your fingertips on Mac, Windows, and Linux systems.
So that's all available at brighteon.ai.
And then check out this, we've just announced this site, brighteon.io, which is a decentralized peer-to-peer social media type of platform.
And you're seeing posts here from some of the other users right now.
I have no idea what they posted, but there's all kinds of stuff from all over the world.
The point of this, Brighteon.io, is it's built on the Bastion platform.
So it's completely decentralized.
There are no central servers.
It doesn't need any domain names to function if you download the app.
And you can get the app at brighteon.io slash applications.
That will take you to the app.
And once you run the app, even if the internet kill switch is activated and domain names no longer function, the app will still work.
This is our emergency comms backup system.
So just go to Brighteon.io, download the app, and then follow me.
My username is HealthRanger.
We also have Natural News and Brighteon and so on.
Follow me there, and then if something bad happens, the Internet domain name system goes down, but TCPIP is still working.
You'll be able to get our emergency messages through brighteon.io, the application.
Or if you don't want to use the app, and if domain names are working, you can just go to any web browser and type in brighteon.io.
I strongly encourage you to reserve your username now on the platform because it's going to get a lot more popular.
So get your usernames, save your secret private key, which is basically your password, to be able to log in.
And you can start using this platform.
There's no censorship.
It's not even possible.
Even the founders of this system, even the people who built it can't kick people off of the system because it's structured based on decentralized blockchain technology.
That's what powers this whole thing.
This is really a revolution in freedom of speech.
And I can see a lot more people moving over to this because Twitter is not really free speech.
Elon says it is, but it isn't.
There's a lot of shadow banning, a lot of deplatforming, a lot of links that are banned.
In fact, Brighteon links are banned from Twitter right now, still.
So use Brighttown.io instead and make sure that you let your audience know that you are on Brighttown.io if you're a podcaster or an influencer or a business and that this is a way they can always hear from you even if the internet kill switch is activated.
Now finally, back to our store, HealthRangerStore.com and our new foods here, Superfoods, Organic Golden Milk Superfood Blend.
All of this is related.
When you purchase our products at HealthRangerStore.com, Not only are you getting the healthiest, lab-tested, certified, organic, heavily scrutinized, pure, pristine ingredients, no junk, no garbage, no fillers.
You're getting the best superfood products in the world.
You're also helping to support our other projects like Brighttown.io and Brighttown.ai.
And these are infrastructure projects for human freedom.
We're giving you back the tech, free of charge, that you can use to empower your knowledge, to empower your voice, and to help defend yourself against censorship and against, well, nefarious governments that are trying to shut down humanity.
So this is all related.
Thank you for supporting us at HealthRangerStore.com.
Enjoy our new products.
Show my desk again.
Just a little selection of what we have.

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.
