Tina from the Satellite Phone Store joins Mike Adams to announce partnership with StarLink...
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Alright, welcome to today's interview in studio.
I've got Tina from the Satellite Phone Store who has some new, really amazing things to announce.
A deal with Starlink and the new website Starlink123.com and also some new solutions for backup power supplies at BeReady123.com and a new go bag, etc.
So this interview is going to be all about solutions.
And yes, we are a partner with a satellite phone store that has been a really generous sponsor of us and provided life-saving backup communications and solutions for so many of our readers and listeners over many years.
So welcome, Tina.
It's always an honor to have you in studio.
Welcome to Texas again.
Yeah, thank you so much.
And you know what's so cool about coming here every time?
It's like I feel like I'm in a different city because last time I was here, it was all, again, it was all brown and now it's all, you know, the hills are green and it's just starting to look so beautiful.
I'm sure as spring comes along, the trees will be beautiful.
The trees will have flowers, and it's going to be even more beautiful.
So it's one of the things that I love about coming here.
Well, we love having you here, and I like this gold cross that you're wearing today.
Oh, thank you.
Where'd you get that one?
I think it came somewhere from Iraq.
This is handed over.
Because, you know, Arabs love gold.
I'm originally from Iraq.
You know that, right?
Who doesn't love gold?
But, yeah, gold is part of the culture in the Middle East, in India, in Japan.
I mean, Southeast Asia.
But Arabs never, ever sell their golds.
Americans sell their golds as soon as it goes up.
They're smart.
Yeah, as soon as it goes up, like $100, they go and sell it.
But they keep it and they just pass it on generation to generation.
They could be like broke as broke can be, but they have like, you know, hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of gold, but they won't sell it.
Yeah, but that's one of the things.
But right now...
Honestly, I would not be selling gold.
My gut feeling tells me gold is going to be the next big thing.
100%.
So that's important for navigating the whole asset minefield and the collapse of the dollar and things that are happening.
But what you bring here with us today are solutions for navigating loss of communications, loss of power.
Now let me set the stage here because as we just saw, There is clearly some kind of a deep state sabotage war against Trump's America taking place right now.
We've seen the slaughter of the chickens and famine, the shortage of eggs.
We've seen now attacks at the Tesla dealerships.
We saw X under a massive cyber attack just the other day.
And there are also economic attacks on the stock market and also supply chains, etc.
I believe that one of these Those impending attacks will be a cyber attack on the power grid to block off power and block off communications.
Even if that doesn't occur, we have weather engineering and all these natural disasters.
So talk to us about what you have that you want to share with our audience that's new, that can help them through these events, should they occur.
Obviously, as you know, you're a prepper, I'm a prepper.
It's good to be prepared in every area of your life, not just...
You know, food.
I mean, obviously, food is, for me, food is the number one important thing that I have.
I think I bought, like, a truckload, or a couple truckloads from you.
Did you?
From my storage last year, yeah.
And what I do, just to let you know what I do with my food storage, I know it's good for 15 to 20 years, but every five years, I donate it, and then I just buy new ones.
Yeah, that's smart.
So this way, you know, yeah, it helps.
It helps.
They love it when I take it to donate it.
And then I get fresh starts.
So it's good to be prepared.
It's okay to be prepared and not you need it, then need it and not have it.
Absolutely.
So then also, obviously we just said gold, and then also communication.
Communication is important.
I think the bad guys are not going to come at us with...
All they have to do is kill our grid, electric grid, and our communication and we're paralyzed because we rely so much on those products that we will be paralyzed.
So one of the latest items that we do have and we've worked out a really good deal with Starlink is Starlink itself.
Let me show the website here.
Starlink123.com So here are exclusive deals.
I'm sorry to interrupt you, but I want to show the screen.
But yeah, go ahead.
So the Starlinks are getting smaller and smaller.
They're portable, and they work from anywhere on Earth.
They're amazing.
And I'd like to show everything that you need to get a Starlink going, no matter where you are on Earth.
Whether you're just hiking or camping or you want to be off-grid for a while, this is the best thing to have.
So this is everything you need is inside this backpack.
Once you take everything out of the boxes, they will actually fit in this bulletproof backpack.
Oh, okay.
So wait, you offer a kit with the bulletproof backpack and the Starlink hardware together?
Yes.
Is that what you're saying?
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, it's not together.
You do have to buy it separately, but we do give you the backpack for free.
But you do have to mention, you heard us on the Mike Adams.
Oh, okay, okay.
So you're saying if they order a Starlink service, they get the backpack free?
And Bulletproof.
Does this also have the Faraday material?
It does.
Wow.
Yeah, yeah, it does.
So that's a...
That's a pretty expensive backpack.
Yeah, it's $200, this particular backpack.
We have a bigger one, which we're going to show in a little bit.
It's $650, but I'll explain why it's a little bit more expensive.
This is level 3A. Yeah, 3A. Ballistic protection, yeah.
So it stops most handgun rounds.
Virtually all handgun rounds.
So this is it.
I want you to...
This is a Starlink Mini.
Okay, wow.
Look at that.
So yeah, let me just set it here.
We can get an overhead shot.
There's the antenna.
It's just a rectangle.
It's a flat panel right there.
Look how thin that is.
And you just connect the Ethernet and the PoE, whatever it is there.
And it comes with its own router, too, doesn't it, I believe?
Yeah, it's a stand, and it's easy to use.
You just take it out.
The first time you use it, if you haven't set up, you've got to download the app, and the first time you use it, it's going to ask you to make up a password, and you make up a password, and then that's the password for the rest of time.
But this is it.
So you do need this to power it.
What is this?
Oh, a 25,600 milliamp hour power bank.
Yeah.
Okay.
So you need this power bank to power it if you're out in the middle of nowhere.
If you don't have a place to plug it in.
And then, of course, the other thing that we recommend with it is the solar panel.
So this way you can, the solar panel will charge this.
Can I take the plastic off of this?
Yeah, yeah.
It's just kind of weird reflections.
Okay, there it is.
So it's a 10-watt solar panel.
Yeah, that's all you need.
To power this up, you need a solar panel, and then this will power that.
So now you could be from anywhere on Earth.
This will let you run your Starlink for about three hours.
Wow.
And then you can either plug it in, but if you're in the middle of nowhere, you use the solar panel.
So wait a second.
As I understand it, Starlink typically has different plans for RV mobile plans versus stationary plans, right?
So is this a mobile plan where it can go anywhere?
It's a mobile plan.
You can take it anywhere you want.
It's not stationary.
I know Starlink sells certain plans that are cheaper.
But you can't move it.
It is stationary.
This is mobile, and you can take it anywhere.
You can take it on a boat.
You can take it to Alaska.
You can take it hiking, camping, or just get off the grid.
So you can use it from any ocean, from any land, any desert, forest, wherever you happen to be on Earth.
As long as you're on Earth.
No, you can take it.
It doesn't work from Mars.
No, but I think it does work in the air.
I know that satellite works in the air because all of our commercial airlines use Iridium, but I'm not sure if they're going to be switching.
The hard part about that is standing on the wing holding the antenna.
You have to be a little bit athletic to stand on the wings like that, but otherwise it works in the air.
So we do, just to let you know, we actually...
Custom-make our own suction cup for small airplanes.
So we have a lot of customers that have their own, like, six-seater, eight-seater.
So you can suction yourself for the wing?
So we do a suction cup that goes in the pilot section.
Oh, the cabin.
Inside.
Oh, inside the plane.
You put it there, and then you can get up to 20 feet antenna so that you can use the...
So a lot of our commercials...
Airlines that are for private airlines that take rich people all over the world, they all use the Iridium.
Oh, that makes sense.
That makes a lot more sense to put on the inside of the plane.
One thing I want to ask you, too, about the Starlink plans.
Again, the website is starlink123.com, and that's just a variation of sat123.com, which is the site most people are familiar with.
But when they say like a 500-gigabyte plan, now, the way I understand it, you're not cut off at 500 gigabytes.
You just get a lower priority at that point for additional bandwidth, correct?
Yeah, I mean, you can go over.
You can call and talk to our people.
They may be able to help you out if you think you're going to need more to try to keep your costs under $200 a month for the plan.
If you go to any other company, I think it's going to cost more.
Plus, you have to buy the unit.
With our company, you don't have to buy the unit.
We will offer it for free as long as you sign up on a 12-month agreement.
I think we did the math.
Again, 11-month is a break-even point for us where we break even paying the cost of this, the cost of that, and the cost of the service.
Okay, so wait a minute.
I didn't realize this until just now.
People don't have to buy the upfront antenna equipment.
They don't have to buy that upfront like they normally do.
They're buying a monthly plan that includes the bandwidth and the equipment.
You said as long as they do a 12-month agreement.
Yeah.
And then they own the equipment at that point.
And then after that, they just go month to month.
Yeah.
And they can stay on for as long as they want, or they can turn it off and turn it back on as they need it.
Wow.
It's a really, really good plan.
Wow, that is a good deal.
It's great that you're working with Starlink because a lot of us who love America, we're really liking what Elon Musk is doing right now with Doge.
We want to support his businesses.
Plus, there are some unhappy people that are trying to set fire to Tesla vehicles at Tesla dealerships right now.
That's how they protest, is they burn everything up.
Come on!
What are you burning the cars for?
Yeah, it's really upsetting.
So I own two Teslas, the X models, and I actually, I went and bought another one because I was so pissed off.
So I ordered another one.
So this way, you know what?
Trump just bought a Tesla car for that very reason.
Oh yeah, I think a lot of Americans are.
A lot of people that love America and they're saying, in your face, and I highly recommend it, anyone.
That can afford to buy a Tesla.
Go buy one.
It's just kind of sad.
I don't know if Elon Musk is making money on it or not.
I doubt it at what he's selling for.
But let me push back on that.
I love Tesla and what Elon's doing, but I like my diesel truck because I can store diesel in a big tank.
So I like my diesel truck, but I'm going to be buying Tesla robots.
So we're going to be having Tesla robots here in the studio as soon as they're commercially available.
And testing them in all of our operations to see what they can do.
Can they sweep the floor?
Can they do things with their hands on the desk?
And when they mess up, we'll slap them like the UFC competition.
Robot slap, you know?
Yeah.
They don't feel pain.
It's okay.
We're going to have Tesla robots.
You're going to have Tesla vehicles.
And we're all going to have Starlink.
Yeah.
No.
Starlinks, Teslas, and what else does he do?
He does other things, right?
I don't know, like super secret deep state stuff.
I have no idea.
Like military orbital weapon platforms.
I have no idea.
I don't care.
I want my satellite.
I want the robots.
But we want our liberty.
We want our freedom of speech.
That's the most important part of this.
We want our country back.
Yeah.
No, I agree.
One thing, that narrow thing that Musk is doing, I am staying a distance from that.
I don't want anything in my brain.
Oh, the Neuralink?
Yeah, I'm not doing that.
This is where I'm like, okay, you know what?
But you know what?
We should have the right to choose.
What we want and what we don't want.
Nothing should be enforced on us.
This is the reason why we came to this country.
It was the greatest country on earth.
And if the other side ruin it, the blue side ruin it, then where am I going to go?
There's nowhere else to go.
No, but a good friend of mine who's a really outstanding coder, computer code, he said, he told me, I'm getting the Neuralink.
As soon as it's available, I'm going to have it implanted in my head, he said.
And I said, well, I'm not doing that, but why are you doing it?
And he said, I want to write code without having to use a computer.
I want to see it in my head without having a screen.
I want to be able to just be sitting on a beach writing code with the Neuralink in my head.
I'm like, okay, well, tell me how that goes, but I'm going to stick with the human brain.
And I don't mind the robots as long as...
I can pull the plug on them, you know?
Exactly, right?
Right?
Or we can hit them with a machete.
Don't you have a machete in that go-back there?
I do, and we're going to open it up so you can see what's in it.
Is it a Skynet whacking machete?
It's the one that you made.
Oh, so, oh, it's good there.
Definitely good against Skynet.
Yeah.
All right.
Okay, we'll get to that.
I'm sorry to keep interrupting.
No, no, and also I just wanted to point out, look, Revelation chapter 13 talks about this.
So I kind of like...
Which part?
The part where, this is what I thought in chapter 13 in Revelation at the end, this is the reason why I didn't want to get the vaccine, because whenever you're forced to take something, it's like, okay, yeah, that could be the mark of the beast.
Oh, the beast from the sea.
Okay, I'm bringing it up.
I don't trust anything.
I don't trust any.
Anything in the body, anything that the government tries to force you to take, this is the exact reason why we left Iraq.
The beast performs great signs.
He makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, and he deceives those who dwell on the earth.
Yeah, that's probably coming.
So it's the last couple of verses where it says the mark of the beast, everyone will be forced to take it.
Oh yeah, here it is, the number 666. So that's...
Kind of like where I set my foot down because I do follow Jesus Christ to my bones.
Yeah, absolutely.
Look, I use technology to further humanity.
That's my take on it.
I am not into transhumanism or any of that nonsense.
But let's get back to this.
Practical things for people.
They can have bandwidth anywhere in the world with this Starlink system.
You make it very affordable.
On a monthly cost without an upfront equipment cost.
Right.
High-speed internet, communication, when the cell towers go down or the internet, these are satellite-based.
You're still going to have connection.
You'll be able to do a podcast from anywhere on Earth.
Anybody can do streaming.
You can watch your favorite TV shows literally from anywhere on Earth.
So it's really, really good to have for preppers, for hikers, campers.
People that, you know, just want to, you know, get off the grid.
Well, and also here's, because I have a Starlink system, and I've noticed that, like a smaller residential one that I've used for a couple years, and I've noticed that other forms of bandwidth are really subject to storms and lightning.
Where I live in rural Texas, you know, there's not really great infrastructure around, and so they have backhaul lines that are actually wireless point-to-point from tower to tower.
Those go down anytime there's lightning.
Starlink doesn't.
Starlink keeps working through the lightning.
I mean, occasionally if the rain is really, really intense, you're going to lose a signal for a little while.
But I'm shocked at how well it works with a light rain or fog or anything like that.
Right.
Pretty amazing.
We saw what happened during Hurricane Helena in North Carolina.
Absolutely.
We dropped a bunch of those off to the folks there, and then Elon Musk gave them the free service for them.
Yep.
And those and the satellite phones were the only thing working, and that's how people were able to communicate with first responders to get the right products brought to them, whether it was baby food, medicine, diapers, instead of just a helicopter full of just anything.
And as you know, this is how we communicated.
You donated a lot of food there, and that's what Steve Slustovic took to bring to keep people alive.
FEMA didn't show up until seven days later.
You showed up right away.
I think we sent $300,000 of food on pallets to North Carolina, something in that range.
It was a couple of different truck trips.
Yeah, that was amazing.
And that helped out more than you know.
I hear customers that called us and just...
You know, they have no way of getting a hold of you so they can get a hold of us.
So they always tell us, you know, how amazing that was.
Well, you know, you mentioned your faith earlier, and, you know, God has a purpose for each of us, I believe.
And it's become more and more clear to me.
I hope you don't mind me going to this place, but, you know, I mean, I've got all the nutrition that I need.
I've got all the food I need, you know.
I've got rainwater I'm drinking.
I sleep in a comfortable bed.
There's only so much that you need personally.
Very quickly, when you have the kind of abundance that we can achieve in this world, it becomes how do I help uplift others through freedom information or supplies or solutions like what you're offering?
And you do that.
You have done that consistently over and over again through every hurricane, every fire, every storm from Maui to...
Los Angeles, you've always given to people so much.
I think that's what we have in common, is we love people.
I went to your service, your first service.
Yes, you did.
And what did you do?
You said this church gives, and you gave.
You gave for the people that were there.
I tell people all the time, it just blows my mind how amazing that is.
So I think that's the reason why we get along.
Well, the last church service that I held...
We ran out of room.
We had to bring in 12 more chairs.
It was standing room only for a while.
And we're building a new building to host a larger service.
But yeah, this last service I gave out goldbacks.
I just gave everybody goldbacks.
So everybody got gold.
And I gave out silver coins to the veterans.
These are veterans' silver crowns.
So every veteran got a silver coin.
People are like, are you trying to buy your audience?
No, I'm trying to get this into the community.
Kind of like what you're doing.
I want to get gold into the community and silver into the community.
It doesn't do any good sitting on my desk or sitting in a stack over here.
I've got to get it out to people.
Same thing with your tech.
We've got to get this tech so people can have decentralized off-grid access to the internet, to the AI engines like our upcoming AI engine.
You'll be able to download it on Starlink.
The file would be like 7 gigabytes, and then you can run it locally, and you can have all this human knowledge at your fingertips.
But you've got to have bandwidth just to get it.
Starlink is perfect for that.
It really is.
People love it because it's easy to use.
It's so much easier than any other stuff that we have used in a vast vegan and all that stuff.
We're like aiming satellite dishes.
Where's the star?
It was crazy.
This, you just take it out, point it, and bam, you got service.
You got high-speed internet, literally.
Streaming, anything.
You can do anything you want.
So it's great.
Yeah, it's pretty amazing.
What else do you have that you want to share with us?
Yeah, so we'll put this over here.
Okay.
And then we'll do the bag.
And for the bag...
Oh, you have a...
This is the go bag?
This is the go bag right here.
Okay.
Okay, so for the bag, you can get this one at beready123.com.
Okay, I've got it.
Where you can also get generators.
Solar generators.
Yeah, generators.
Got it.
And if you look at those generators, Mike, we have made them so reasonable.
To where we've combined exactly what people would need to be able to power up their whatever it is that they need, whether they just need it to power up their fridge or if they want to do the whole house, the air condition.
These are really nice to have as backup.
And coming soon, within two more weeks, we should get them.
We are going to have covers to cover these that are going to be Faraday.
So that this way they'll protect it in case of an EMP attack.
You mean like a giant Faraday bag that covers the whole solar generator?
So a whole solar generator and the whole thing.
So it'll survive an EMP attack.
Yeah.
So be on the lookout for that.
That's cool.
And we'll bring that up the next time, maybe next month when we do have them, we'll do a podcast and show everybody how to use them and what to do with them.
Okay.
But in the meantime...
This is the emergency bag that you can also get.
And what's so cool about this backpack, it has four Faraday pockets.
So it has, for the 17-inch computer, it's got for your iPad, iPhone, it's got for your key fob, for your wallet.
So this way you can protect everything, as you know.
The attacks on our wallets.
My husband just got his wallet stolen.
He's like, how did they get a hold of it?
I'm like, do you put it in your wallet?
And he's like, yeah, because they charged all over the country.
Wait a minute, you mean they stole his credit card information?
Just through the air?
Through the air, yeah.
Oh, wow.
And I'm like, yeah, your credit card's in a dark web because it was all over the country that we're using it.
I think all our cards are on the dark web sooner or later.
I think all our social security numbers are all over the dark web for sale.
I think if you keep your credit cards inside of a Fair Day bag, I think it makes it harder.
Yeah, you get a new card.
You want to protect the new card.
And then also your key fob.
A lot of theft.
It has been happening with people going to...
Most people put their keys by the door.
So the thieves can be 10 feet away.
They can copy the key fob and then steal your car at night.
It's been happening everywhere.
You see it on the news.
It's everywhere.
It happened...
You mean they can copy it through the wall?
Through the wall.
They just stand on your front porch?
They just stand there, yeah.
And they can get your key fob code, and then they can go start your car and drive away.
Holy moly.
Worse than that...
The one that happened in Arizona, which was really close to me, it was on the news.
You can find the story.
But the guy was holding an AK-47 on the door in case the owners woke up at 4 in the morning while they were stealing the car.
And he got up the next day and he's like, I wouldn't have came out and fought for my car anyways.
It's not worth it.
I have a solution for that.
Shoot through the door.
You take your rifle.
And you unload 28 rounds right through the door.
I call that the ventilation strategy.
Yeah.
In Texas, it's a felony crime to steal a car, right?
Is it?
Yeah.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Well, over a certain dollar amounts of felony.
And you can use a firearm to stop a felony, but I just want to urge our audience, know your own local laws and whatever.
Maybe you just want to let them steal the car because it's not worth the paperwork.
I don't know.
But if someone makes it to my front door, they are way...
They're there on purpose, and they might not be leaving.
Yeah, me too.
That's all I'm saying.
Yeah, me too.
You come to my house and threaten my life or my loved ones, and you're going to lose your life.
But anyway, let's try to avoid all that, right?
Be safe.
Protect yourself.
Yeah, protect your property, right?
That's why you have a gun.
Absolutely.
So that you can protect yourself.
Guns.
Plural.
This is Texas.
Guns and machetes.
Guns and machetes and satellite gear and also bulletproof backpacks.
So this backpack is itself also ballistic.
Level 3A? Yeah, it's a level 3A+. It's a little bit stronger than that one.
So we took it to the test and we had some...
Some military guys test it, and I don't have them with me, but they shot bullets that were this long, and they did not go through.
So this one did hold up a little bit better than the other one.
Well, I would imagine like FMJ-556 would be stopped by that.
Yeah.
Right, but maybe not like an armor-piercing 556 or like an AK armor-piercing round.
Right, and of course, the more you have in it, the more...
Blockage, because by the time it gets through the...
Dual-purpose Starlink panel, you know, also blocks bullets.
It helps stop bullets.
We actually did have a customer told us that one of the BeGans that we sold did save his life.
He showed us where the hole in his backpack, and then they were running in Africa from the bad guys, and he got shot.
Oh, my.
That's what held...
Did he call you up and say, hey, my satellite is not working anymore?
I can't figure out why, and then you find out, oh, there's a bullet hole in it.
Oh, I thought it would still work with the bullet hole.
Yeah.
No, he actually called and said, you know, how much is it?
Because, you know, it got shot at.
And we're like, dude, the fact that it saved your life.
Yeah, you should frame that thing.
Send it to Elon with a thank you note.
Thank you for, your panel has another whole use.
But show us what's in, yeah, let's open this up.
So this bag does run about $3,000.
Whoa.
But this backpack is like about $650, plus it's got a really nice machete that you did, and the machete alone is like about $1,000.
Because that's made with the MagnaCut alloy steel.
That's amazing.
That's the Dawson Knives machete, is it?
Yeah, it is.
No, I have it.
It's in here.
It's a small machete.
Do you have your small machete here with you?
Probably.
Really?
Yeah.
I don't know.
Maybe this is a big one.
I think this is the Battle Tomahawk.
Yeah, that's something completely different.
I love that one, by the way.
It's not this one.
I love that one.
I take that one in the backyard to see if I can cut a tree.
You know, I think I gave away the machete.
I'm always giving these knives away to people here.
You want one?
You need a Dawson knife?
Yeah, you know what?
I'm going to give you one.
No, I'm going to give you one.
I've got a stack of them.
Do you have a machete?
So I'll give you a machete.
Oh, you mean a machete?
You know the small machete?
I keep Escape from L.A. No, I've got it at home.
Because I use it on the ranch.
Okay, so it's in here somewhere.
So here's what's in here.
It's got, of course, a solar panel.
I don't know if you can see all of this.
What's the orange bag?
That's the emergency stuff.
Yeah, first aid.
And then this is really important because if the grid went down, you're going to need a map.
You've got a printed road atlas.
Those are actually hard to find.
They are hard to find.
So you get this with it.
I tried to find that recently.
I couldn't even find one.
Well, maybe not you.
You're not as old as I am.
But that's all I had when I used to drive, look for directions.
We used to stop at gas stations and buy maps at the gas stations.
Yeah, right?
And the glove compartment.
I grew up with a rotary phone.
With a cord.
Like a cord that was 50 feet long.
I remember that.
And you know, my son says to me, Mom, Mom.
And the old movie, the old people, do you know how they used to dial?
They had to put their finger and spin.
Yes.
And I was like, oh my god.
And when people had phone numbers with nines or zeros in them, it took forever to call them.
You're like your best friends are the ones that had ones, twos, and threes.
Yeah.
So anyways, everything from headlamp to flashlights, let's see.
The younger audience doesn't even know what that means.
They're like, what do you mean?
They don't.
You mean it takes less time to dial a one than a nine?
Yes.
Also, one of the other things, he's like, old people used to have this big black round thing for their CDs.
And I'm like, you mean records?
Vinyl?
They're talking about vinyl?
Yeah.
Oh yeah, vinyl.
It's still classic.
So this bag is going to be for you anyways.
So this is so cool.
I love this.
I'm going to put it in here.
Okay, so this is included in the kit.
This is like...
This is almost a $1,000 machete.
So, yeah, I give a close-up.
So this, folks, there's the reflection.
This is a MagnaCut alloy steel, which is a CPM MagnaCut, virtually corrosion-proof, and it's got a G10 handle, and it's got multiple points here.
I don't mean to spend too long on this, but I co-designed this with Dawson Knives, and this is just a workhorse.
And it's got a Rockwell hardness factor that's really amazing anyway.
This is a lifesaver.
Yeah.
You know, I gave those up for Christmas to a few people.
Did you?
Until this day, they're like, they can't believe it.
They're like, this is the best thing ever.
To people that I know that like to go out and hike.
People that like knives and just love this knife.
And then silver.
There's 10 pieces of silver in here.
Cool.
Like one ounce coins?
Yeah, one ounce coins.
So that's, if you need to...
Barter.
Yeah, yeah.
Because you really, I mean, this is a grab-and-go.
This is an emergency bag.
The only thing you need to add to it is really just your passport, important paperwork.
So this way, if there is an emergency and you have to leave the house and you grab-and-go, this is the bag that you want to leave.
Yeah.
And that's why it costs so much.
I mean, you've put, you've sourced out all this stuff and put it all in one bag.
Yeah.
And the bag itself is amazing, but the gear in it is also amazing.
Yeah.
So, what are the other...
Well, I mean, it's got tents, raincoats.
Like a poncho?
Yeah.
Just a lot of stuff in there.
Really?
The picture is on the website of everything that's got in it.
Oh, yeah.
I should scroll down to that.
Oh, here it is.
It is loaded with a lot of things.
Wait a minute.
Yeah, there you go.
That picture right there.
Yeah, that picture, all this stuff.
Yeah, except instead of a survival knife, it's got the survival machete.
That's the only difference.
Oh, the survival machete.
So it's got all, okay, all this stuff.
Yeah.
Okay, and a satellite phone.
And a satellite phone.
And is the satellite phone prepaid for a certain duration then?
For 12 months.
For 12 months.
Yeah.
Is there also, is there a bivy stick or no?
It's either a bivy or a satellite phone.
You get to choose.
I see, okay.
Yeah.
Alright, is there a fire starting device in this kit?
There's a lighter and a fire starter.
Is it the magnesium scraping fire starter?
Yes, and an electric lighter.
So I took out my electric lighter.
I went to try to live outside for one day.
See, I carry one.
Oh, you do?
So you can just show people what that is.
Press the top button.
It's in there.
Is it this?
Yeah.
This one?
Yeah, there it is.
So I took this one out with me, and I tried to start a fire, because I wanted to...
My sister has a house on a ranch, so I'm like, I'm going to sleep outside today.
So that did not work out, by the way.
I took the lighter with me.
I couldn't start a fire with it.
You couldn't start a fire with it?
No, but I could start a fire.
You didn't have, like, dry paper or anything?
I did.
It was all dry.
It just couldn't...
But I started it with the magnesium.
Oh, yeah.
The magnesium, for sure.
Yeah, so I scraped up magnesium a little bit.
And got the fire started.
But then the first howl, I ran inside.
What was howling?
I think it was either a wolf or a coyote.
I don't know.
So I'm like, okay, yeah, I'm not staying.
I know that animals are afraid of the fire, but I think not.
So I need to watch more survival shows.
To get more guts to be able to stay out and live outside.
You know, welcome to my world.
Like, all night, my dogs are just having a chorus with the coyotes.
And then we have a lot of owls around, and they make some funny sounds.
Not just the hoo-hoo-hoo, but also something like...
Kind of sounds like there's monkeys in the forest, but I know there aren't monkeys.
It's a primate-free forest.
But there's owls and coyotes and who knows what else, man.
Oh, and wild hogs fight every once in a while.
You should stay at my place one time.
You won't sleep a minute.
Sleep outside anyways.
So yeah, you know, I love owls.
And also, you have a lot of bats.
I went over by the bridge to see the bats.
The famous bat bridge.
That is so amazing.
They're just beautiful.
I love nature.
I just don't want to...
I don't want a bee meal.
No, I get it.
I get it.
No, but I've never had a wild hog or a coyote try to attack me.
Not once.
They're always afraid.
Especially the coyotes are real skittish around here.
And the wild hogs, one of them kind of walked up to me and did a little...
And I'm like, hello, piggy!
And he just turned around and ran off.
He was like...
300-pound hog, though.
Yeah, no, they're pretty big.
So when I was in Sedona and I was water fasting, I didn't have any food for like 30 days.
I was out and I saw habanero hogs?
Habanero.
A family.
They're the javelina.
Javelina, there you go.
And all I could think of was bacon.
But they're not actually pigs.
Oh, really?
They're not.
Oh, no.
It's a different...
They look like...
Yeah, okay.
The javelina are a different tree.
Yeah, okay.
I don't know what javelina bacon.
Yeah, I don't know.
I was so hungry at the time.
That's the only thing I could see was food.
I could eat one of these.
Well, too bad you didn't have the battle axe with you right there.
Javelina souffle, you know?
No, all I had with me was a hiking stick at the time.
I had someone that took me with them because when you don't eat, you're not supposed to be alone.
Is that right?
Yeah, because you could faint at any time.
Well, 30 days with no food, that's pretty serious.
Yeah, but it really is so good for you, though.
Any kind of fast is so good for you.
You know that.
I don't have to tell you that.
No, but when I fast, I can't work.
I cannot do those two things at the same time.
I can either fast, But my brain does not function the same when I'm fasting.
Did you experience that?
Oh yeah, that's why I had to take off.
I wanted to take off longer, but that didn't work out.
When I fast, it gets slow.
But look, I'm powered by this right now.
I'm always doing my smoothies and staying healthy and staying prepared.
I really appreciate...
Let me just give out your websites here again as we wrap this up.
For today, Starlink123.com is the site where you can get the Starlink packages so you can stay connected no matter what happens to the power grid or the comm system.
It works anywhere in the world because the Earth is round or a sphere.
That's a shocker to some people.
And then, secondly, we have BeReady123.com with the backup solar generators.
Yep.
And the bag.
If you want that, yeah.
All right.
Well, Tina, thank you for everything that you're offering.
You've gone to great lengths to put together solutions for people.
This isn't just like importing stuff from China and selling it.
You're putting together solutions.
You're negotiating deals with Starlink.
You're making things more affordable.
The economy is tough right now.
We're in kind of a recessionary phase, it seems.
So thank you for making this affordable for people.
Relatively affordable.
Thank you so much.
The economy is a little bit, but I think it's just a short time.
I don't think it's going to last for very long, so I encourage people not to let it bother them.
There's a reconfiguration happening.
I think we're going to have a real golden age ahead of us as we kind of clean up the system a little bit.
But like you, I want to be fully prepared, so I have Starlink and all this backup gear.
Yeah, this is part of what I... I don't travel without your satellite phones.
BivyStick and I have both the Inmarsat and the Iridium sat phone together.
You never know.
I think I was talking to Sebastian Gorka and during the time when the cell towers went down, AT&T was hacked I think at the time.
He called me and said...
Well, thank God I took the satellite phone with me because if I didn't have the satellite phone with me, I would have no way to communicate because he was traveling at the time.
So they really are handy and you've got to keep it with you all the time.
Yeah, that's what I do.
Plus some silver coins.
I always have a few silver coins with me and that's what's in the bag too.
Okay, very cool.
Alright, well everybody, it's Tina from the Satellite Phone Store and look, these are practical solutions so do your research, take advantage of this.
And understand, I know some of the prices you saw here today, they don't seem, they're not like $20 deals.
Quality equipment is not dirt cheap stuff.
These aren't Walmart, you know, this isn't like cheap plastic stuff.
This is durable lifetime equipment, especially like these knives and so on.
And the Starlink system is not inexpensive.
So, and the backpack, I mean, this is like really quality stitching.
I was looking at this before.
The zippers are good.
The stitching is good.
The material is really high-end, abrasive-resistant material.
Like, I don't know how you even put these together.
These are all custom-made.
Yeah, they are.
I mean, nobody else in the world makes this.
This is a military-grade backpack, so this should last a lifetime.
And also, lastly, I do want to mention that you do sell these on your website individually, right?
That's true, yeah.
So people just want to buy the machete?
That amazing...
The battle axe.
This is a tomahawk, I think, is what this is called.
Yeah.
And we have smaller hatchets as well.
Is that what that's called?
I use that to...
This is a tomahawk.
Oh, okay.
I'm pretty sure.
Yeah, but we have a smaller hatchet.
See?
Oh, okay.
See the unique shape of this head right here?
See if we can show...
Where is that?
There.
Now that people can see it.
Okay.
And we worked on this shape quite a lot.
And the length, I actually extended it because I needed more leverage, but put this indention here, or this shape, so that you have retention, and it won't slip out of your hand.
If your hand's wet, if you're working in the rain, or you're fighting javelina in Arizona, or whatever.
No, we don't fight animals.
We honor animals, just to be clear.
We're just joking.
I agree, and I've seen so many of these survival shows.
That when they use this, they end up cutting themselves.
Oh, yeah, all the time.
So this one is so amazing because this one does have a protection over here, so it can't slip from your hand.
The only thing that you can do when you're cutting, I think.
Let me show you something here.
I want to show you something about just this knife and knives in general.
Yeah, you have this finger guard here that you were just mentioning, but you also have this serration on top.
This is a thumb stop.
And the way that you do it in knife combat is you hold it like this.
Okay.
And your thumb is pushing as you're thrusting.
Because the last thing you want to happen...
I mean, years ago I used to train in all kinds of edge weapons combat.
But when you thrust, and if you actually hit your target, you don't then want your hand to slide forward and slice off your fingers.
Yeah.
And that's what I've seen.
I mean, I've watched enough Naked and Afraid and other survival shows, dual survival.
That's all I watch is survival shows.
I'm learning to be a survivalist, really.
I want to be able to live outside.
That's why I tested it to see if I'm ready for it.
But I've seen so many of them with the machete and knife slips and they get a cut.
They cut their thumb off.
Absolutely.
Well, it's like the texture of this handle is also an anti-slip, you know, texture, 3D texture, because slippage, and also there's a rule in knife fights.
In a knife fight, everybody bleeds, and it turns out, I don't mean to get gruesome, but blood is really slippery.
So what happens is everybody gets cut, but they're still fighting, and then you end up with blood all over your knife handle, and then it's hard to grip it.
So anyway, we don't need to go there, but for survival...
Well, maybe too much sometimes, but we all just want to be safe, and we want to help people be free and secure and private and have access to all these solutions, and that's what we have here.
So be safe, everybody.
And thank you, Tina, for joining me.
Thank you so much.
All right.
Take care, everybody.
Remember, it's beready123.com right here, and then also starlink123.com.
And thank you for supporting Tina and the Satellite Phone Store.
As they support our platform.
