WEBVTT - The Survivor: A Magazine For Nerdy Terrorists 0:00:02.160 --> 0:00:07.920 What's got a headache? My code Kenny Ship Katie has 0:00:07.960 --> 0:00:10.800 a headache. This is Behind the Bastards podcast about that. 0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:16.639 It's not a Corona headache. It's just a normal stress headache. 0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:18.799 Yeah you say that, but you've got that look in 0:00:18.840 --> 0:00:21.319 your eyes like the guy in the zombie movie who's 0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:24.840 hiding the bike. That's that's that's literally all of us 0:00:24.960 --> 0:00:27.160 right now. Actually, yeah, you think you're you think you're special. 0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:30.680 Back off, poise, don't look too closely at my headache. 0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:37.839 So this is our first Corona recorded quarantine episode of 0:00:37.920 --> 0:00:42.400 Behind the Bastards the Quarantine Bastards, and I figured we 0:00:42.440 --> 0:00:47.120 should do something a little special for it, y'all. So, oh, 0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:49.040 I just had my first cup of sip of coffee 0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:51.879 for the day. That's nice. That's lovely, Robert, Why did 0:00:51.920 --> 0:00:54.240 you not drink that before you started recording? We have 0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:58.960 a rule because we're professionals, gotta be fast. Speed is everything. 0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:03.120 M Now, let's very slowly discuss this old Prepper magazine 0:01:03.120 --> 0:01:10.200 from nine. Oh yeah, so yeah, I was given this 0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:13.360 mailed this by a fan, and I don't think they 0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:16.920 sent it weeks ago. So this was just a coincidence 0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:18.960 that it timed out well with the coronavirus. But it's 0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:24.280 called The Survivor by Kurt Saxon. Now Kurt's Saxon was 0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:30.280 a a fringe survivalist lunatic who uh wrote a book 0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:33.399 called The poor Man's James Bond and a number of 0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:36.760 other guides to making improvised weapons and uh and stuff 0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:39.280 like that. He's one of those Here's how to kill 0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:44.000 people with objects around you type dudes, a fake James Bond? Excellent. 0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:47.520 It's more like, here's how to booby trap everything that 0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:51.640 you own and kill people if you had so. It's 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:55.120 more like a bad mgeiver. Yeah, here's how to be 0:01:55.960 --> 0:02:01.160 like a drunk, lonely mcgeiver in the woods. So like 0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:06.480 a like a light terrorist. Yes, it seems like what 0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:10.119 we're talking about here. We got a lot of time 0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:11.520 on our hands. I don't know if this is a 0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:13.600 responsible thing to put out in the world, but we 0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:16.680 are so. I want you to look at I want 0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:19.080 you to look at the beautiful copy of this. It 0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:22.280 is about it's enormous. It's about twice the size of 0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:25.800 a normal piece of paper. The book is it's handbound. 0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:28.600 Whoever made this clearly did it and like their garage 0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:33.480 and the front has a gorgeous an illustration that I 0:02:33.480 --> 0:02:42.160 can only describe as unhinged. It really is very lovingly made. Yeah, yeah, 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:45.000 it's like a it's like a very it's a warped 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:49.920 fairy tale. It's a fat zine. Yeah, like Katie's description, 0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:53.079 made with love. It is definitely made with love. It 0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:58.560 it shows a man who looks like a young who's 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:08.560 the guy from Greece? Greece guy Tommy, Tommy TRIVOLDI he 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:12.079 looks like young John Travolta, got the hairy chest. I'm 0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:17.880 a phenomenon. He's hate he's clearly forging something, and he's 0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:20.040 forging something. What I love about this picture is that 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:23.160 he's like clearly working on an active hot forge, right 0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:26.160 next to his daughter who's immediately left of the forge, 0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:30.839 playing with a doll spark. It's great, and he could 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:33.560 do that and be a good parent. He can, of 0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:35.880 course he can. They live in some sort of home 0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:38.560 built house. There's what I have to assume is a 0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:42.240 bomb making chemistry set, either that or meth amphetamine in 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:45.320 the in the right hand corner. And then his very 0:03:45.400 --> 0:03:49.760 quiet perspective warped wife standing in the background operating some 0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:54.360 sort of rudimentary lathe. Yeah, she's got her apron on. 0:03:54.440 --> 0:04:00.120 I think you're damn getting her face burned off. I 0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:02.720 have a feeling Kurt Saxon does not like it when 0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:08.760 women don't wear aprons. M I understand where you get 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:11.520 that feeling from. Well, he's not going to shell out 0:04:11.560 --> 0:04:13.800 for her to buy another dress if she ruins it 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:18.160 being stupid. Here's the thing about prepping, um, because I 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:21.960 I do it myself. Unfortunately, you often wind up taking 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:26.239 advice from lunatics who are light terrorists because they also 0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:28.240 know how to do a lot of really useful ship 0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:30.680 because they've been living alone in the mountains for thirty 0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:34.760 five years and they picked up some skills. UM. So 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:38.160 I'm interested in the ratio. I'm going to predict right 0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:41.120 now that this magazine will be a mix of incredibly 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:46.120 useful survival tips and absolute madness. And I'm really interested 0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:49.279 as to what that ratio is going to be, right 0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:53.240 and how how they relate to each other, because I 0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:55.640 imagine a lot of the useful things will be like, hey, 0:04:55.800 --> 0:04:58.840 did you know this, and here's what you do with it? 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:05.720 A cross over there, page one has a has ah. 0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:09.359 What I would get I guess we would call an editorial. Uh, 0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:12.880 survival is looking out for number one, and I guess 0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:14.600 I should read a little bit from that to give 0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:16.839 you give us an idea of the tenor of this piece. 0:05:17.400 --> 0:05:20.520 Alarmists all around the country are promising disaster such a 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:24.400 super inflation, famine for an invasion, the triumph of communism 0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:31.000 slash fascism. That classic. You guys remember when the communo 0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:38.279 fascists were were rolling in that red brown alliance. The 0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:44.400 dangers of one thing, nuclear war, etcetera. Unfortunately, it's essentially 0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:46.920 the same thing, so I don't have too much of 0:05:46.960 --> 0:05:53.280 an issue with that slash lump them in together. Unfortunately, 0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:57.320 they may all be right, even though their timing is wrong. Semicolon, 0:05:57.480 --> 0:05:59.919 we hope not exactly where I would use a semical. 0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:04.520 But you have only to compare this year's food prices 0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.440 over last year's, this year's rise and crime over last year's. 0:06:07.480 --> 0:06:12.960 These things affected directly prices going up. Yeah, that's it is. 0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:16.520 It is a little bit comforting to read the tone 0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:19.800 of certain imminent doom in this magazine and then be like, oh, 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:23.440 this was fifty years ago, and we kept on limping 0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:26.600 for Just wait, buddy, just wait, maybe we'll get through this. 0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:32.400 M hmm. Yeah. There are two main reasons for this, 0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:34.400 which no political system can help. One is that the 0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:38.000 age of exploration and development and the Industrial Revolution is over. 0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:40.360 And the other is that the good crop weather worldwide 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:43.280 is also over maybe for centuries. You guys remember how 0:06:43.279 --> 0:06:46.159 we weren't able to We can't grow crops anymore. Yeah, 0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:49.599 the crop weather stopped. I'd almost forgotten with everything that's 0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:51.520 going on, But yeah, that's part of the problem. We 0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:55.159 don't have any crops. I mean, we actually do have 0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:58.080 a major problem with that because the Trump administration is 0:06:58.120 --> 0:07:01.680 not letting uh Mexican workers in on visas this year. 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.760 The harvest crops, that's going to be an issue. But oh, 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:07.719 Kurt Saxon, I couldn't have known that. How dare you 0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:11.400 make this relevant, Robert? How dare you? We're trying to 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:15.600 escape here into the world of awful bastards, not remember 0:07:15.640 --> 0:07:18.120 the bastard reality that we live in. Why don't we 0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:21.000 escape into hearing what Kurt Saxon has to say about 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:25.920 the Age of Exploration and Development. Yes, it began around 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:28.760 fift and into around nineteen fifty. From the beginning of 0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:31.400 that period, the earth was explored, mapped, annex developed, and 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:35.200 exploited with you. So far kurt Its resources, animal, vegetable 0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:37.920 and mineral were looted with little or no thought for 0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:41.640 future generations still on board. As national industries grew to 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:44.200 take advantage of the impouring bounty from the hinterlands, living 0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:46.600 standards rows, enabling more people to survive and in turn 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:49.520 to reproduce their kind human locusts spread over the earth, 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:52.360 born only to exploit, rape, and destroy their own environment. 0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:54.880 Have more babies so we can clear more land. Have 0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:57.239 more babies so we can mind more coal and metals. 0:07:57.280 --> 0:07:59.520 Have more babies so we can keep the factories running. 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:01.680 Have more babies so we can take more territory from 0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:05.760 the hated enemy. That's right, We've got a built in workforce. 0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:10.960 The babies, the babies, more babies, babies. As you were 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:12.600 reading that, I was like, I hope there's a third 0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:15.120 half more babies, And you did it, and then there 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:19.320 was a fourth one. A lot of babies having suggestions here. 0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:21.760 I mean, Robert, I guess it's better than the usual 0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:24.560 dead baby talk on this. It is. It is, although 0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:27.160 I think that he would argue that, like Lana del Rey, 0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:30.640 these babies were born to die. Yeah, I also think 0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:32.880 we're only on the first page. We are only on 0:08:32.920 --> 0:08:35.440 the first page, so there's there's more time for dead babies. 0:08:35.640 --> 0:08:38.200 This this opinion column is continued on page two, but 0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:39.720 before we get to it, we have a couple of 0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:44.480 really useful, uh little little guides just on page one. 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:47.920 How to cut bottles with electricity from a nineteen nineteen 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:51.920 Popular Mechanics article, how to make a stationary windmill from 0:08:51.920 --> 0:08:55.280 a nineteen thirteen Popular Mechanics article, And how to irrigate 0:08:55.360 --> 0:09:01.720 with cans stationary windmill. Yeah, station every windmill so it 0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:05.520 doesn't move with the wind. It just is like a statue. 0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:10.480 Uh no, I figured it wasn't that. I think it 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:16.120 yeah down the hill. I guess. I don't know why 0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:22.040 you can specified that a windmill stationary, like my windmill 0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:26.040 is not portable. My windmill stays where it is. I say, 0:09:26.160 --> 0:09:28.760 it runs regardless of the direction of the wind. That's 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:32.320 probably what they're saying. Cody. Mills of this kind can 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.920 be built of larger size in some localities have been 0:09:36.000 --> 0:09:39.040 used for pumping and cutting a bottle with electricity. You know, 0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:42.440 Actually that's so that's that's like a useful thing. For um, 0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:44.520 if you've got like a bunch of big glass bottles 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.520 and you need to make cups because the society has collapsed, 0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:50.080 but you still need a good cup, and you've got 0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:52.600 extra electricity hanging around. Well, if you know how to 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:59.520 make your own windmills. If you're reading The Survivor volume one, 0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:02.240 I think you're ready for this. I mean, honestly, though 0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:05.199 they jumped right into the heavy hitters in volume one, 0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:09.720 I'm surprised. This isn't even like a remedial guide. Oh boy, 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:14.320 there's so many pages there's this is so big. I'm 0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:16.880 not going to go through the entirety of his column, 0:10:17.080 --> 0:10:19.200 but I do want to read the section where he 0:10:19.240 --> 0:10:24.440 starts about arming yourself and escaping society. That seems like 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:28.040 that's the most important step, right, I mean, if you're 0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:34.439 not considering arming yourself and escaping society for the mountains, yeah, 0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:41.920 that's right. Everybody is exactly exactly so uh, you may 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:43.600 want to get a few acres and live cut off 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:45.480 from everyone. This is fine if you're well armed and 0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:48.000 a professional woodcraft are already. However, this is too great 0:10:48.040 --> 0:10:50.960 a change for most people. The inexperienced dreamers simply cannot 0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:54.600 survive alone. Regardless of your choice town, commune, or small farm, 0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:56.640 you must choose an area about a hundred miles from 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:59.600 any major population center. It must also be several miles 0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:02.280 off from an major highway. Refugees streaming out of New 0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:04.520 York or Los Angeles will clog the main highways and 0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:06.840 strip every home from miles each side of their route, 0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:13.440 like irresistible plagues of locusts. I'm guessing he's imagining those 0:11:13.440 --> 0:11:17.080 crowds as being a certain color. You probably have to 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:21.840 use much of your imagination. No, no plagues of locusts. 0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:27.280 I've I've seen the cover of this. Yeah, he does 0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:30.880 say that he's going to focus on survival without savagery. 0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:36.079 So that's good. Okay, Oh Jesus, No matter how much 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:38.800 you might think you can steal yourself against pitiful refugees, 0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:40.880 you must plan to live as far off their perspective 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:51.000 roots as possible. Yeah, say, pitiful pitiful refugees. So next 0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:53.360 we have, uh, we have a guide to making a 0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:56.840 mouse trap, a guide to make popcorn cakes. So that's nice. 0:11:56.960 --> 0:12:01.920 How to make a house both dang right? Wait, how 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:05.920 to make a houseboat? How to make a houseboat? Let's 0:12:05.960 --> 0:12:09.680 get into that. This is a short This is a 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:15.200 very short guy to make. So it's he's he's taken 0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:18.240 a lot of different guides from popular mechanics, and this 0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:24.520 is about a page for paragraphs on the houseboats. I 0:12:24.559 --> 0:12:28.200 didn't realize it was that simple in a very small time. 0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:31.120 Why aren't we all making houseboats? There's so much coast 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.920 to California. You guys could be living in houseboats right now, 0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.960 free rent. We are dropping the ball. And if you 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:43.040 make that stationary water wheel thing, then you'll have power exactly. 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:46.000 We don't have to oh this, we're gonna live like 0:12:46.679 --> 0:12:52.360 very very dangerous kings. Well, and I have to say, 0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:56.800 you know what's better for uh your what's a better 0:12:57.320 --> 0:13:00.640 value for the funders of some more news than living 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:03.320 in homemade house boats and generating your own power with 0:13:03.360 --> 0:13:06.840 a wheel. Honestly, I couldn't think of a second thing. 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:12.280 I'm sure the next page will provide some more for us. 0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:19.000 But what was that game? It's like, what page are 0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:27.000 we on? We three? Oh my god, my god. Right 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:29.920 next to how to make a house boat medicines like 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:33.480 Granddad used to make, which is an advertisement for another 0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:39.880 two page book by Kurt sex. Oh my smart. Yeah, 0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:41.480 I mean, you know, you want to make the sign 0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:44.760 of medicines that your grandpa used to make. Oh my god, 0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:49.040 So it's ten dollars ninety six. Ten dollars. Kurt's charging 0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:54.120 you quite a bit for granddad. Ye self published to like, 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:58.200 but like, if you're you're learning really valuable into I 0:13:58.200 --> 0:14:01.080 could shell out some bucks to learn how to make 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:04.800 a houseboat. I know that's different. You don't have to. 0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:09.400 You've got the free four paragraph guide right here, Katie. Um, 0:14:09.440 --> 0:14:12.640 can we talk about this entry that says a homemade 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:17.480 blow blowtorch? Oh? Absolutely, Wait where is that it's from? 0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:23.280 It's from Popular Mechanics. N wow, popular mechanic is really 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:29.640 it requires no air and no pump. You have a blowtorch. 0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:37.080 I don't know how you blow without air or a pump, 0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:41.240 but I guess there's a way. Well yeah, I mean, 0:14:41.240 --> 0:14:43.600 instead of forcing a small stream of gasoline into a 0:14:43.600 --> 0:14:46.400 heated burner, it converts the gasoline into gas in the 0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:48.440 chamber and blows a small jet of it through a 0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:52.680 very small hole in the the combustion chamber. There we go. 0:14:52.880 --> 0:14:56.000 Just it's just that simple, Thank you, And this is 0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:58.280 why we're all looking for things to do while quarantined. 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:03.440 Make your own blow torch, following the guide this dangerously 0:15:03.560 --> 0:15:08.280 unhinged individual self published in his garage in nineteen seventy six. 0:15:09.080 --> 0:15:12.200 And maybe do not follow that advice we just gave you. 0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:16.120 Follow all of it, every piece of get out of here. 0:15:17.400 --> 0:15:20.040 I do want to read a paragraph from medicines granddad 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:21.960 used to make, because it's made me aware of something. 0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:24.760 So this is not This is not medicines that Kurt 0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:27.880 Saxon's granddad used to make. Uh. He included all of 0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:31.520 the medical preparations from Dick's Encyclopedia of Practical Receipts and 0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:34.920 Processes eighteen seventy two and the complete text of the 0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:38.320 Medical Students Manual of Chemistry from eighteen eighty nine. So 0:15:38.400 --> 0:15:41.120 he's just taking old books and republishing them with a 0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:43.040 little bit of work and then selling them for a 0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:47.360 huge amount of money. Yeah, just like he got a 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:51.040 bunch of popular mechanics. I mean there's an element of 0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:53.000 that that's cool, because like there's a bunch of ship 0:15:53.000 --> 0:15:54.840 in here from like the eighteen hundreds that it's just 0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:57.560 like guides to life that that random people on the 0:15:57.600 --> 0:16:02.800 frontier figured out. But also like, Kurt, you're not coming 0:16:02.920 --> 0:16:08.800 up with this stuff. He's a he's a news aggregating website. Basically, Yeah, 0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:13.000 I do want to see. Yeah, he's BuzzFeed. He's like 0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:18.160 prepper BuzzFeed from the seventies. The sections from Dicks cover 0:16:18.240 --> 0:16:22.040 such medical preparations as bitters, aromatic vinegar, smelling salts, f 0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:32.360 factitious mineral waters, facious of those work, Sophie, would you 0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:35.040 look up factitious mineral waters to see if that's a 0:16:35.120 --> 0:16:38.440 thing or if this is nonsense? Old people medicine, they 0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:41.440 maybe they used to refer to mineral waters as factitious 0:16:41.560 --> 0:16:44.160 because people used to think they were fake. I don't know. 0:16:44.680 --> 0:16:49.120 This all sounds like stuff. Grandpa Simpson would prescribe fluid extracts, 0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:59.360 medicinal lessences, medicated syrups, oxymel elixirs, medicated waters, medicinal solutions, lotions, liniments, pills, ointments, salves, serrates, 0:16:59.520 --> 0:17:06.359 poultice is, plasters, garbls, caustics, rubefacians, Balsom's tonics, and a diet. 0:17:06.359 --> 0:17:12.720 It's diaphyretics, diuretics, electuaries, fomentations. I'll turn it. What are 0:17:12.800 --> 0:17:16.199 these things? I'm gonna be honest if you're trying to 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:18.600 sell me medicine. You lost me at a lix, sir, 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:26.160 I'm not gonna buy your stuff. So update, there's really 0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:29.159 nothing except I found one thing that's titled Drugs and 0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:32.119 Our Drinking Water, and I don't think it's related. So 0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:34.880 I think this person just made up a thing awesome 0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:41.880 or time ago. So next page, how to make make 0:17:41.960 --> 0:17:46.639 up a candy floss outfit. What's the candy flaws outfit? 0:17:46.960 --> 0:17:48.639 You know, it's how to make floss, it's how to 0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:52.199 it's a it's how to make a not candy like 0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:55.879 a costume. No, we would call it. Um. What's that 0:17:55.880 --> 0:17:59.040 ship they sell at the carnivals. It's the cotton candy, 0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:02.720 cotton candy. How to make a cotton candy machine. That's neat, 0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:06.640 I would go, yeah, I love. It's like an outfit. 0:18:06.760 --> 0:18:10.120 I love. I love their old old terminology for that. Yeah, yeah, 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:16.439 definitely it was an outfit. Yeah. So on that page 0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:19.439 we have had to make up a candy floss outfit 0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:24.280 catching insects with a vacuum cleaner and homemade blowtorch. And 0:18:24.320 --> 0:18:27.439 then right next I don't really I don't think that 0:18:27.520 --> 0:18:29.640 we need a big long description of how to catch 0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:32.600 a bug with a vacuum cleaner. No, that actually seems 0:18:32.640 --> 0:18:37.360 pretty simple. Yeah, that's straight title. The title is the explanation. 0:18:37.640 --> 0:18:40.560 You know what I think he's filling. You know what's 0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:45.240 amazing he gives us. He dedicates exactly as much paide 0:18:45.240 --> 0:18:47.959 space to making a houseboat as he does to catching 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:54.879 insects with a vacuum cleaner. Well, now we know both. 0:18:55.400 --> 0:18:59.160 And then on the same page another ad for another 0:18:59.240 --> 0:19:04.320 Kurt Saxon book keeping score on our modern profits, psychic 0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:07.239 researcher and Bible expert levels on people who give the 0:19:07.320 --> 0:19:11.720 occult world a bad name? Do you think that he's 0:19:11.800 --> 0:19:15.840 publishing books just to promote his other books? I think so. 0:19:16.080 --> 0:19:18.120 I think that this is all he's got his whole 0:19:18.160 --> 0:19:20.520 media network. Like, this guy is kind of like a 0:19:20.600 --> 0:19:23.240 low tech Alex Jones who has like his own But 0:19:23.280 --> 0:19:27.359 actually some of this is really useful, um right? Yeah, 0:19:27.640 --> 0:19:30.160 Like I imagine I might wind up digging this up 0:19:30.200 --> 0:19:32.239 to find out how to make a homemade blowtorch if 0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:34.359 things get a lot worse. I knew you were going 0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:40.080 to say blowtour techny. Hey, Robert, what else is really useful? 0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:44.520 The products and services that support this podcast yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:48.440 they do. All right. We're going to go to products 0:19:48.560 --> 0:19:50.480 right after we get back. We're going to talk about 0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:53.040 how to keep score on our modern profits. So I 0:19:53.040 --> 0:19:55.879 think we should all be excited about this. I'm stuck 0:19:56.160 --> 0:20:06.600 always and we're bad. We're back. We're talking about living 0:20:06.600 --> 0:20:10.200 in the mountains and forming a militia. Um, a militia 0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:13.119 in which we would all be colonels um. Everyone is 0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:16.480 a colonel in in my militia. So can I give 0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:21.200 a quick anecdote? Absolutely. I'd never said the word colonel 0:20:21.359 --> 0:20:24.399 out loud until I started auditioning for projects and I 0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:27.600 was reading something and I had to say the word colonel. 0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:31.800 But I just read it and said colonel. And that's 0:20:31.880 --> 0:20:36.080 my anecdote. I immediately knew my mistake. You can cut 0:20:36.080 --> 0:20:38.920 this out. It's done. No no, no, no, no, no no, 0:20:39.119 --> 0:20:44.360 we're all saying. Kurt Saxon has shared his emotional vulnerabilities 0:20:44.400 --> 0:20:48.200 with us. We should share ours with the listeners. Thanks guys, 0:20:48.200 --> 0:20:51.119 thanks for receiving me, Thank you for sharing, Thank you 0:20:51.160 --> 0:20:56.399 for opening up, Thank you for sharing. I missstook a 0:20:56.480 --> 0:20:59.800 wrench for channel locks once several years ago, and I 0:21:00.320 --> 0:21:04.280 very silly and all of the people who knew what 0:21:04.320 --> 0:21:06.560 they were doing with tools around me made a lot 0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:09.760 of fun of me. So everybody makes dumb mistakes. I'm 0:21:09.840 --> 0:21:13.800 so sorry that you experienced that, Robert. I'm so sorry. 0:21:13.880 --> 0:21:16.800 I feel like, yeah, they were all woodsmen and I 0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:18.800 wanted to be cool around them, But then I didn't 0:21:18.840 --> 0:21:21.560 know what channelocks were because I was a fool, And 0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:25.120 I'm so sorry. I still don't know what. I only 0:21:25.160 --> 0:21:30.119 have a vague idea, to be honest, Cody, do you 0:21:30.160 --> 0:21:32.359 want to say share a shameful and vulnerable moment? Or 0:21:32.359 --> 0:21:34.680 should we read about what Kurt Saxon has to say 0:21:34.720 --> 0:21:37.439 on modern profits. I've never been embarrassed once in my 0:21:37.600 --> 0:21:41.560 entire life. That makes sense, That actually makes complete sense. 0:21:42.880 --> 0:21:46.560 Modern profits promoted by trashy tabloids claimed to know the future. 0:21:46.640 --> 0:21:49.560 Aside from predicting natural disasters, they are very heavy on 0:21:49.600 --> 0:21:52.200 sweetness and light. Everything is going to turn out all right, 0:21:52.400 --> 0:21:55.199 God tells them. So too many people believe frauds like 0:21:55.280 --> 0:21:57.800 Gene Dixon. They don't prepare for rough times ahead because 0:21:57.880 --> 0:22:00.080 Jean says great things are in store for humanity. The 0:22:00.560 --> 0:22:03.040 fact that these things seldom come off as prophesized is 0:22:03.240 --> 0:22:05.919 forgotten as new prophecies come out. The author is the 0:22:05.960 --> 0:22:08.440 only one to collect and record four years of prophecies 0:22:08.480 --> 0:22:11.000 and the most popular of the most popular modern prophets, 0:22:11.200 --> 0:22:13.480 with their miserable scores, it is amazing that any of 0:22:13.520 --> 0:22:15.399 them stay in the limelight. If you were hooked on 0:22:15.400 --> 0:22:17.280 the modern prophets and there's someone who is, you owe 0:22:17.280 --> 0:22:19.360 it to yourself to read this. But oh, I think 0:22:19.359 --> 0:22:26.520 he's actually like busting, like talking about what liars psychics are. Yeah, 0:22:26.560 --> 0:22:30.480 he really hates this Genie Dixon woman, And yeah, there 0:22:30.560 --> 0:22:33.880 we go. I don't know. I went to one psychic 0:22:34.000 --> 0:22:36.119 that told me in a past life I've saved a 0:22:36.119 --> 0:22:38.800 lot of Jewish people during the Holocaust, and I tend 0:22:38.800 --> 0:22:41.480 to believe that that's true. That is a nice thing 0:22:41.560 --> 0:22:49.239 to believe. I feel like, can I share one other 0:22:49.320 --> 0:22:53.359 psychic story that might uh convince you this is the time? 0:22:53.400 --> 0:22:57.840 Do you think it? So? My good friend Nellie, who 0:22:58.119 --> 0:23:03.440 loves Hawai, goes every year. Okay, in her adult life, 0:23:03.880 --> 0:23:08.119 she has seen six different psychics who have all said 0:23:08.600 --> 0:23:11.440 that she used to be the ruler of a South 0:23:11.480 --> 0:23:15.840 Pacific island. Oh that's cool. Do what you will with that. 0:23:15.840 --> 0:23:20.920 That is a creepy coincidence. Either that or a lot 0:23:20.960 --> 0:23:24.199 of different psychics in Hawaii tell tourists to come in 0:23:24.240 --> 0:23:26.639 that they used to rule a South Pacific island. Well, 0:23:27.040 --> 0:23:29.760 she didn't go to all of her psychics were in Hawaii. 0:23:29.920 --> 0:23:31.760 She lives. And I'm also going to throw it out 0:23:31.800 --> 0:23:38.520 there that most people like Hawaii. Yeah, I'm not saying wrong, Well, 0:23:38.560 --> 0:23:42.159 but most people don't go every year of the I 0:23:42.200 --> 0:23:44.760 do wanna. While we're talking about California, I feel like 0:23:44.800 --> 0:23:48.600 I should note that the the address for Kurt Saxon's 0:23:48.600 --> 0:23:51.920 business is in Eureka, California, which I used to live 0:23:51.960 --> 0:23:54.320 next to, and nothing has ever made more sense to 0:23:54.359 --> 0:23:59.240 me in my entire life. That does make a lot. God, wait, 0:23:59.280 --> 0:24:01.240 have we done the fun thing where we just search 0:24:01.320 --> 0:24:04.680 words yet? Can we do that with the digital I 0:24:04.760 --> 0:24:06.680 kind of want to know who Gene Dixon is, But no, 0:24:06.760 --> 0:24:08.720 I don't think we can search words since that's a 0:24:08.760 --> 0:24:12.040 scan will include the link. You can read this all online. 0:24:12.080 --> 0:24:17.240 It's in a pdf. Uh oh god uh Touring in 0:24:17.280 --> 0:24:20.360 the Auto the land Cruiser. It's a guide to building 0:24:20.400 --> 0:24:25.080 your own RV and it is much longer than the 0:24:25.160 --> 0:24:30.240 guy to building a houseboat, which I feel like does it. 0:24:30.480 --> 0:24:32.480 Oh no, there's a little guy to making a barrel 0:24:32.480 --> 0:24:36.840 boat too. That's goods. Wait, Robert, go to page thirty two. 0:24:37.000 --> 0:24:41.639 Go to page thirty two. Oh but the poor Man's 0:24:41.720 --> 0:24:45.320 James Bond is on the next page. Okay, do that first. 0:24:45.320 --> 0:24:47.760 Do that first. Take a look. Take a look at 0:24:47.800 --> 0:24:51.080 the illustration for the cover of The poor Man's James Bond, 0:24:51.200 --> 0:24:53.480 and I E. Cody, I'm gonna need you to describe 0:24:53.520 --> 0:24:56.120 that for me. Is what makes him poor? The fact 0:24:56.119 --> 0:24:59.159 that he's got eyeglasses on. Yeah, I don't know. So. 0:24:59.200 --> 0:25:01.680 The picture of the cover of The poor Man's James 0:25:01.760 --> 0:25:04.600 Bond features like a dude who looks like a nerdy 0:25:04.640 --> 0:25:09.080 engineer with big coke bottle glasses and like almost a 0:25:08.920 --> 0:25:14.119
