Hello, everybody.

0:01

Good morning, afternoon

0:01

evening everybody, whichever it

0:04

is that you are listening to

0:04

0:07

evening or Good night. I have

0:07

problems with this.

0:10

Hello everybody, this is spice.

0:13

This is salty. Sorry, I

0:13

don't want to get into this

0:16

morning america type banter this

0:16

morning. It is more Goofy,

0:21

probably

0:21

pressing on.

0:23

As always, if you hear

0:23

traveling noises in the

0:25

background, we're sorry about

0:25

the audio quality if it's if

0:28

it's a little iffy, but but we

0:28

do this while we're in

0:31

transport. We are transporting

0:31

ourselves to the central part of

0:35

Missouri today. Oh, Mo Columbia,

0:35

Missouri home on the Missouri

0:40

Tiger even though they're not

0:40

there at the moment, at least

0:42

the football Tigers I'm not sure

0:42

they are even when they are

0:44

they're crossing right along.

0:44

Welcome to the show the big show

0:48

the three big podcast where we

0:48

talk about the things that need

0:52

to be said.

0:54

much fun or not.

0:56

This is the things that

0:56

need to be said addition, now

0:59

we're gonna let spike spice take

0:59

the lead on a lot of this stuff.

1:03

Because, okay, we're gonna, I'm

1:03

gonna share a secret.

1:06

I'm a girl,

1:07

she's a girl.

1:07

I'm a girl.

1:08

She's a girl,

1:09

I thought that maybe was the secret he was referred to as a secret. She

1:11

is a girl. And we are

1:11

we're a works at all. prepper

1:19

broadcast a prepper site, we're

1:19

here to talk about the real

1:23

stuff or real things, even

1:23

though some of that stuff,

1:27

frankly, isn't gonna get read

1:27

very much because people aren't

1:30

that. Well, we'll get into why

1:30

some of that is we're not you're

1:33

not gonna probably see it linked

1:33

on a lot of places because it

1:36

people get uncomfortable about

1:36

it. And no, it's not political,

1:39

not

1:40

religious.

1:41

And no, it's not

1:41

religious. It's just, it's just

1:44

stuff that guys don't want to

1:44

talk about.

1:46

And I'm gonna guy the

1:46

majority of our readers and

1:48

listeners are guys, I think

1:50

now I will I will give

1:50

spice credit she is for many,

1:54

many long years, she has been

1:54

very, very understanding of the

1:59

fact that I am a guy. I am a

1:59

guy's guy, you know, football

2:04

guy. I like football. I like you

2:04

know, guy stuff. I like to shoot

2:09

guns. I like to do guy things.

2:09

Service vehicles. Yeah,

2:14

if it's a vehicle that

2:14

works for a living, he wants

2:16

one.

2:16

That's right. I'm the

2:16

kind of guy who buys a fire

2:18

truck, you know, just because

2:18

the guy stuff go to car shows,

2:22

yeah, guy. But part of life when

2:22

you're married or have women

2:27

with you, like daughters, or

2:27

even family members like sisters

2:31

and stuff like that, is you have

2:31

to sometimes do with girl stuff.

2:36

Frankly, when I look out

2:36

at the prepper information

2:39

that's out there. With a couple

2:39

of very notable exceptions, I

2:42

see very little of it.

2:44

And so part of what we're

2:44

doing, see we have four things

2:47

in our in our name, and we mean

2:47

them all we need beans, we

2:50

absolutely mean beans, bullets,

2:50

like you know, we've talked a

2:53

lot about bullets, bandages,

2:53

well, you also know we do a lot

2:56

of bandages. But we've also got

2:56

the U part. And half of the US

3:00

out there are women or girls,

3:03

they may not be half of

3:03

the prepper population or half

3:05

of our readers but

3:06

but half of our most of

3:06

our prepper population have

3:10

women who are in their lives, at

3:10

least in some way. And you just

3:13

gonna have to learn learn to

3:13

deal with that stuff. So this is

3:17

what we're here to talk about.

3:18

What brought this up is a

3:18

post I did this last week, I

3:21

wrote it knowing full well it

3:21

was not going to be a chart

3:25

topper. No.

3:27

We knew none of the

3:27

people who thankfully we do, we

3:30

do appreciate the people who

3:30

pick up our links and share them

3:33

around the internet. We knew that wasn't gonna be shared, we just knew because it just is not

3:35

a guy thing. And most almost

3:39

everybody.

3:40

It's not their favorite

3:40

stuff to think about read about

3:42

talk about themselves.

3:43

But almost everybody who

3:43

reads this stuff are guys.

3:46

But I felt I needed to

3:46

put it out there because it's

3:48

important information. And it

3:48

should be out there, in my

3:50

opinion.

3:51

And then there's Google,

3:51

you know, Google will find us if

3:54

the information is out there,

3:54

especially if there's not a lot

3:56

of information out there.

3:56

Google, you know, we're working

4:00

on our search engine things. Oh,

4:00

you know, we'll be one of the

4:03

first things I'll hit. So that's

4:03

part of what we're because we

4:06

just we know, somebody will

4:06

eventually read it. And I mean,

4:08

we watch the statistics. So we

4:08

know, you know what gets

4:11

hundreds of reads what gets

4:11

1000s of reads this thing is a

4:15

great article, what was it

4:15

called?

4:18

natural family planning for preppers

4:20

natural family planning

4:20

for peppers. It fell flat. I

4:25

mean, splat dead on arrival,

4:25

virtually nobody read it.

4:30

Interesting, isn't it? So what's

4:30

going on here? Why is that? It's

4:34

not that, that people don't read

4:34

our articles. I mean, I know

4:37

even if it doesn't, nobody links

4:37

them anywhere. We get reads on

4:41

our articles. We get a lot of

4:41

reads on URLs. And thank you

4:43

very much for doing that. We

4:43

appreciate that. But this one

4:46

nosedive, I mean, I checked on

4:46

it. hours after it published

4:51

hours after publishing, I had

4:51

three reads I was one of them.

4:56

And I almost guarantee you

4:56

paranoid prepper was another one

4:59

of them. And I will wouldn't be

4:59

surprised if Merman was the

5:01

third, our staff,

5:04

but I wrote it anyway.

5:04

Because this is anecdotal

5:08

evidence. All right, I don't

5:08

have actual data on this. This

5:10

is not the kind of thing that

5:10

people are taking data about at

5:13

the time. But there's the

5:13

anecdotal evidence out there

5:17

anyway, that whenever there is a

5:17

major disruption of medical

5:21

services, big ice storms are a

5:21

famous example of these where a

5:26

lot of people are trapped in

5:26

house for a lot of days at a

5:30

time, the really big winter

5:30

storms, there's a spike in

5:34

births nine months later,

5:34

because people's interest in

5:37

their significant others does

5:37

not necessarily evaporate when

5:42

trouble hits. But this can be if

5:42

it's a fairly prolonged

5:46

scenario, that can be a real

5:46

problem. Because Do you want to

5:50

be having upheaval in your life

5:50

when your family includes

5:54

somebody who is pregnant? Or

5:54

somebody who's trying to take

5:57

care of a young baby at the

5:57

time, that's a problem.

6:00

And this is verifiable

6:00

This is Google check. In

6:04

America, the most popular

6:04

popular birthdays, and I think

6:10

what you're gonna see, it's

6:10

gonna it's, I find it very

6:13

amusing because my birthday is

6:13

in a popular birthday range, not

6:18

necessarily this one, but it is

6:18

a popular birthday range. If you

6:21

count back nine months, for

6:21

example, from Christmas to New

6:25

Years, you end up late August,

6:25

early September, and when are

6:29

the most birthdays give birth to

6:29

late August, late August, early

6:33

September away,

6:34

it's cold people are

6:34

inside, they want to snuggle up,

6:36

get warm

6:37

party, Christmas, family

6:37

time, and nine months later,

6:43

there's more babies. Yeah, it's

6:43

just we're humans, this is how

6:46

we are. So you're

6:49

fairly short term

6:49

situations, you're really best

6:52

off stocking up on the

6:52

conventional methods that people

6:55

are using every day now, because

6:55

they are more effective than

6:58

natural family planning.

7:00

Okay, caveat. We do not

7:00

talk about religion or politics.

7:04

Now, some people do have

7:04

religious beliefs that are

7:09

opposed to contraception, and we

7:09

get that, okay. But most people

7:14

out there do not hold those

7:14

beliefs. Some do. And that's

7:17

cool. That's totally cool. We

7:17

don't if that's your thing, the

7:20

rest of the stuff that we're

7:20

talking about, actually, almost

7:24

everything in this article and

7:24

what doesn't really deal with

7:26

contraception as far as active

7:26

contraception, this article is

7:30

about stuff that every single

7:30

religion on the planet that I

7:35

know of approves of, you know,

7:35

where's No, this is not

7:39

controversial stuff at all.

7:39

because, frankly, you know, the

7:44

number one way of contraception

7:44

is

7:47

abstinence, abstinence. You know,

7:49

she told that, Joe I love

7:49

it's one of my favorite stories.

7:52

The Apple joke. Yeah, that story

7:52

isn't really a joke. It's

7:55

because it's

7:55

somebody goes to the

7:55

family doctor and asks about

7:58

contraception. Doctor says, oh,

7:58

perfectly easy. I got a cheap

8:02

100% effective method. That half

8:02

an apple, an apple Really? Yeah,

8:07

it works great. Before or after,

8:07

instead.

8:12

Yeah, so in fact, an

8:12

apple a day does keep the doctor

8:15

away.

8:16

And I just put only one

8:16

line about that in the article,

8:20

because frankly, you all knew

8:20

that lead me to beat that horse.

8:24

But you know, people are

8:24

people. And we know, I mean,

8:28

come on.

8:29

If that plan worked

8:29

perfectly, you wouldn't have

8:32

that spike in births nine months

8:32

after every crisis begins? Yes.

8:36

I don't think people are doing

8:36

that on purpose. I think they're

8:38

just finding seeking comfort,

8:38

where they can find it. And you

8:42

know, and if they don't have the

8:42

protection of land, well, they

8:45

don't. So

8:47

yeah, so what what this

8:47

article does, and we're not

8:50

really here plugging this article, that's not the point of this. What this article does, is

8:52

just basically explaining

8:55

natural methods has been used

8:55

for centuries

8:59

using the calendar and

8:59

using the woman's body

9:01

temperature changes to predict

9:01

when she's going to be fertile.

9:05

So you can act on that

9:05

information in whichever

9:08

direction you feel it best to

9:08

act on that information,

9:11

right? It's good stuff to

9:11

know, if you are trying to have

9:13

a baby, you know, you need to

9:13

know that stuff too. Because if

9:16

your goal is to is to have a

9:16

family and create create more

9:19

life, then you know this is this

9:19

is helpful that way. So anyway,

9:24

and there's a But anyway, the

9:24

whole point of what we're

9:27

bringing out today is this is

9:27

how this fits in with the

9:30

prepper site thing is if that

9:30

article just flopped because men

9:34

don't want to read that there's

9:34

too

9:37

much they don't want to

9:37

think about it. They don't

9:40

want to think about it.

9:40

I'm a guy you know, something

9:43

like that I believe in in the

9:43

system of man points and guys

9:46

all know what this is. I believe

9:46

in me in points okay. You

9:50

everybody gets mad points. We

9:50

get man points for doing manly

9:52

things, right? I get you know,

9:52

500 points for watching a hockey

9:56

game. So I love hockey right

9:56

I'll watch a hockey guy. 500

9:59

points. You know, and then like,

9:59

Oh, I gotta go to a

10:03

traditionally woman. Domestic

10:03

chore. Oh no, I'm gonna lose man

10:08

points. How am I gonna lose?

10:08

600?

10:10

Man,

10:11

excuse me, honey. We're

10:11

going into overtime on this

10:13

game. I gotta watch the overtime

10:13

to make up for for doing those

10:18

dishes. Okay, I'm joking. I'm

10:18

joking. But she's, she's really

10:24

good about this. You know,

10:24

she'll have me go to the store,

10:27

and she'll give me a grocery

10:27

list. But she will not put

10:31

certain things on that list.

10:33

Oh, for some items myself,

10:35

not? Because she knows

10:35

well, first of all, she flat

10:37

knows I'm not going to go to

10:37

that aisle and pick up that

10:41

thing. And I'm not even gonna

10:41

talk about what it is. You know,

10:44

I'm saying I actually buy some

10:44

of her clothing. I i do i bought

10:47

I buy clothing. There are things

10:47

I don't buy. And that's fine.

10:50

We're not well, I did once and

10:50

then emotionally scarred me for

10:54

life. Remember, there was a you?

10:54

Yeah, you we we were on a trip

10:59

and she'd forgotten to pack her

10:59

drawers. And she was dead tired.

11:04

I mean, dead tired, exhausted.

11:04

And like, okay, I'll go to the

11:08

store. And so I know she know

11:08

that wasn't it? You bought? You

11:14

brought a brand new package.

11:14

Wrong size. But yeah, they were

11:18

wrong. Yeah, the label was, you

11:18

know, she didn't.

11:21

That's alright. I'll suck

11:21

it up. As I recall, you

11:24

read the label was right.

11:24

It was just on the wrong

11:26

package. As I recall.

11:28

It was pretty tired at the time.

11:29

Yeah. So she's got these.

11:29

These drawers were like, you

11:33

know, four XL and she's like a

11:33

size for six. You know, not

11:38

gonna happen. could wear I mean,

11:38

it's just not not even get you

11:42

by gonna happen.

11:44

I didn't ask him. I was

11:44

just gonna suck it up until I

11:46

could get there. But he was very

11:46

generous. The dead

11:49

coyote on the road. Yeah.

11:49

So anyway. So anyway, long story

11:53

short, what happened was, I

11:53

went, and I helped her out, I

11:58

picked up a couple of the things

11:58

we needed at a big box store.

12:01

And just as I'm getting up

12:01

there, I'm like, how am I going

12:04

to do this? How am I going to do

12:04

this? Oh, my goodness, how am I

12:07

going to do this? Look over

12:07

there. And they have the self

12:09

check. I hate the subject, but

12:09

they have the self checkout. So

12:13

go over there, ring them up. And

12:13

the dead gum thing doesn't ring,

12:18

which is why we hate the self checkout,

12:19

which is why we hate the

12:19

self checkout. And then the the

12:22

girl comes over. And here I am

12:22

holding women's underwear.

12:28

Now if that had been in

12:28

your size, you would have gotten

12:31

the hairy eyeball. As it is you

12:31

got lots of good karma points

12:35

from that woman out

12:36

1000 demand points that

12:36

cost me by her looking at me

12:41

holding those 10,000 man punch,

12:41

I had to watch an entire

12:47

recorded season of Canadian

12:47

Football just to make backup and

12:51

this is Canadian Football isn't

12:51

even American football is can I

12:54

had to watch Canadian Football

12:54

to get those points back.

12:58

Sorry, I got a little cough.

12:59

Yeah, she's got a cough, she's

13:02

going to actually put out some more of those articles, even though I know they're not

13:04

going to be very popular so

13:06

people can find them if they if

13:06

they need it. Because it's I

13:09

really couldn't find any of it.

13:09

When I was looking at a lot of

13:13

other prepper websites, it was

13:13

just a desert for that kind of

13:16

information, and it's gonna come

13:16

up and people are going to need

13:19

it. And I know it's not much fun

13:19

to read about but oh man, it is

13:23

no fun at all not to know how to

13:23

do it if you need to know how to

13:26

do it. The natural family

13:26

planning methods. If you do them

13:30

perfectly, you can get about a

13:30

95% success rate per year. If

13:34

you do them as normal people

13:34

living in the real world

13:38

actually do them you get about

13:38

75% success per year. But that's

13:44

compared to 15% of not getting

13:44

pregnant a in a year of paying

13:49

no attention to the question at

13:49

all. So it's a heck of a lot

13:53

better than nothing if you think

13:53

it's not a good time to

13:56

procreate, and you don't have

13:56

anything else. It doesn't take

13:59

anything but knowledge attention

13:59

and a little paper and pencil to

14:02

do so that's one topic there's

14:02

going to be others the main

14:06

reason we did this podcast is to

14:06

encourage you to step past you

14:11

know are you doing the prepping

14:11

for fun are you doing the

14:14

prepping because you think it

14:14

needs to be done and fits the

14:16

former sure scroll on by look

14:16

for that mistakes I've made when

14:20

buying guns article those those

14:20

guys go over really well.

14:25

Yeah, my mistakes articles go

14:27

make some mistakes.

14:30

mistakes. I've got a I've

14:30

got a gun I'm gonna pick up

14:32

we're gonna be going past the

14:32

gun store, but I'm probably not

14:34

gonna stop today. I got a gun.

14:34

I'm gonna pick up just here in a

14:37

bit that who knows it's probably

14:37

a mistake.

14:41

But if you're doing it

14:41

for fun, fine, but if you're

14:43

doing it because you really want

14:43

to protect you and yours in a

14:47

bad situation. There's some

14:47

things that aren't any fun that

14:50

you got to think about. And I

14:50

think that's true. A lot of my

14:52

bandages articles and it's

14:52

particularly true of the ones

14:55

that centered on women's health.

14:56

Guys, if you're out there

14:56

and you think it's important and

14:58

you want this information out

14:58

Try this. Just say, Hey, honey,

15:02

come over here, read this. Let

15:02

her read it. Yeah, and get one.

15:06

It'll show her that there is

15:06

information out there for women

15:10

that this isn't just a guy

15:10

thing. That's important. You

15:14

know, we're talking about trying

15:14

to help people become more and

15:16

more on board. Well, one way to

15:16

get people more and more board

15:19

is to get them more and more on

15:19

board with other women.

15:22

Let them understand that

15:22

it's about them to

15:24

write about real world

15:24

women issues, because it is

15:28

because they're people sort of,

15:30

more or less. I've never

15:30

been one to be dissuaded by

15:33

that's a guy thing. And I'm a

15:33

girl, maybe it's because I had a

15:36

lot of brothers. But that's

15:36

never been my mindset. But that

15:39

is the mindset of a lot of

15:39

people. And there's no sense

15:41

pretending it is when they

15:41

realize it's about them, too.

15:45

When you were a toddler,

15:45

they used you as the football.

15:47

It was fun.

15:49

It was fun to be the football.

15:51

Why would you share about

15:51

it, but well, you don't hurt

15:53

her. She was literally about

15:53

football anyway. So

15:58

we didn't do any long bombs with me. So

16:00

we're gonna have a whole

16:00

series of these articles. And

16:02

we're at this this, this is a

16:02

companion piece to a piece that

16:06

I believe is going to be titled

16:06

something along the lines of why

16:09

we publish articles, we know

16:09

you're probably not going to.

16:13

But you should. And it's true.

16:13

We just we really want to be

16:18

complete. We want to have a full

16:18

circle of stuff. And there's

16:22

just no way to just do guy

16:22

things and be it there's more to

16:26

it than that

16:27

if just two people read

16:27

these articles, and I help one

16:29

of them when it's been worth my time.

16:31

Yeah, which you don't have advertising on our site. We don't sell average, there's

16:33

nothing to buy on eBay.

16:36

To help you out guys.

16:37

We're here to help you

16:37

out, you know, as much as we

16:39

can, or at least share

16:39

information you can help us out.

16:42

Leave comments, correct anything

16:42

we get wrong. You know, we're

16:45

not world grade expert. But we

16:45

have been doing this for a long

16:48

time. We're we're Season Two

16:48

citizens. We've been around a

16:51

while, a lot,

16:53

made plenty of mistakes.

16:54

Lots of mistakes. I've

16:54

I've done everything there is to

16:57

do wrong wrong, I think except

16:57

for

16:59

this one. We didn't have

16:59

any unintended children. That's

17:03

true.

17:03

But anyway, at least

17:05

one of us was thinking about that.

17:07

One of us was long story

17:07

short, just all we ask is that

17:12

you set aside the the

17:12

preconceived ill and take note

17:16

of it.

17:16

If you're serious about

17:16

it, do it do what's important,

17:19

not just attractive,

17:20

we're not lawyers, or

17:20

we're not doing this for clicks.

17:23

I love clicks, I love to look at

17:23

the stats and say, Oh, yeah, we

17:25

got x many 1000 the blog today,

17:25

which is great. And I really do

17:29

appreciate it. You know, I like

17:29

seeing those those those numbers

17:33

go way up. And but there's

17:33

nothing we don't get, you know,

17:37

there's no no reward for it or

17:37

don't get as we know, there's a

17:41

click,

17:41

that's the icing, that's not the dinner,

17:43

right. And that's one of the things that makes us different than, than a lot of

17:45

other places. You know, they

17:48

want to put the clickbait stuff

17:48

out there, they, they'll they'll

17:51

set aside the stuff that they

17:51

know are not going to get a lot

17:55

of clicks, they'll set that

17:55

aside, because they're in the

17:58

business of bringing people in,

17:58

get them clicking on the ads,

18:01

get them clicking on the links,

18:01

and making money. And we're not

18:04

doing that

18:05

we have paid jobs.

18:06

We have paid job. Yeah,

18:06

this is our hobby. This is what

18:08

we do as a

18:11

service to our community.

18:12

This is how we pay our

18:12

social Rep. There you go. And

18:15

I've talked about social work

18:15

before and I will again, this is

18:17

this is how we pair so it's just

18:17

one of the things we do. So

18:21

we're gonna keep bringing you

18:21

stuff that you're probably not

18:23

gonna want to read, you know,

18:23

all we ask is that you keep an

18:26

open mind,

18:26

not only stuff that

18:26

you're not gonna want to read,

18:29

but

18:29

Oh, yeah. And I'm gonna

18:29

tell you whether, whether this

18:32

gun I'm probably not gonna pick

18:32

up today which frankly, I don't

18:35

want to run around with a with a

18:35

brand new gun in a big case.

18:39

It's a it's a shotgun. I don't

18:39

ride around with como and with

18:43

that my car, Columbia, they do

18:43

have a bit of a crime problem

18:46

and I just don't think that's

18:46

what So, but I know you're

18:50

dying. It's a 410 410 shotgun II

18:50

remember, it's a Mossberg or

18:54

Remington. He's a mass 400 514

18:54

pump. I've always wanted one got

18:59

one. And I've got some portion,

18:59

a whole bunch of 14 shells and

19:02

not a single gun to shoot about.

19:02

So that was the other part of

19:05

getting it. So

19:06

reading off the shells

19:06

was clearly out of the question.

19:10

I'm sorry. What do you

19:10

say?

19:13

I said, this is spice

19:13

hoping you're well.

19:16

Salty, and we'll catch

19:16

you the next time.
