1 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:11,160 Speaker 1: Perhaps you were born for such a time as this. Hello, 2 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 1: and welcome to a very special edition of Faith and Freedom. 3 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 2: I'm Chamae Nugent. 4 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: We're taking a look back at some of the most 5 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 1: powerful conversations that we've had this year in twenty twenty five, 6 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,760 Speaker 1: and I got to tell you, we've had a few. 7 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: There have been some doozies, from sheriffs to pastors. Some 8 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,559 Speaker 1: might think that, wow, Samaine talks to everybody I do, 9 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 1: from Cash Ftel to Don Trump Junior, to senators and 10 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 1: congressmen and authors and rock stars. People have made us 11 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: laugh and cry and made us think and reminded us 12 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 1: why faith and freedom matter more than ever. 13 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 2: So grab your coffee. I got mine. 14 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: Here's my little coffee cup with dogs and coffee.

So we're going to start 17 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: the conversation. Start the show off with a conversation that 18 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 1: stopped people in their tracks. You know him, comedian, actor, 19 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: former Hollywood wild child, Russell Brand. But his journey has 20 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: taken a turn that nobody saw coming. I think, from 21 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:28,400 Speaker 1: addiction and chaos to baptism and faith. Russell is living 22 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: proof that God can reach anyone, anywhere, anytime. Here's my 23 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: conversation with Russell Brand. 24 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 3: Holy Smokes is three to two to one from the 25 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 3: Man Cave Kuchus News. The Arsenal of Democracy with Ted 26 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 3: Jermaine Nugent with Russell Brand. Jamaine taken Away. Russell Brand 27 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 3: is our special guest from the Panhandle of Pensacola. Russell Brand, 28 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 3: Welcome to the freedom hell Zone of the Nugent Celebration. 29 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 4: You deserve us, sir. 30 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 5: From the first moment I encountered the Nugents, A knew 31 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 5: at some point not end up in a bunker with you. 32 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 3: Oh we are bunkers. So Shamaine and I met you 33 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 3: at mar Lago and we've been admiring your firestorm of truth, 34 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 3: logic and common sense for a long time. And Shamaine's 35 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 3: faith and freedom and my spirit campfire digs into absolute 36 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 3: I mean absolute, totalitarian, self evident truth logic and common sense. 37 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 3: And that seems to be your true North Compass setting. 38 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 3: Russell Brand, When did you discover this true North Compass setting? 39 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 3: And you so eloquently articulate the basics of the American dream, 40 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 3: which happens to be the basics of the human dream? 41 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 6: How'd you figure that out? You lie me. 42 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,519 Speaker 5: We still do some things right on that little set 43 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 5: islands across the Atlantic that gave you a language and 44 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 5: a significant portion of your flag, as well as much 45 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 5: of your constitution and your earliest greatest generals, and some 46 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 5: of you found in philosophy, as many of you found 47 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 5: in fathers. Tumble enough of that mayflower the first hour 48 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 5: of that great nation continent that you call home. 49 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 7: I reckon. 50 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 5: I had the advantages of growing up pretty broken. I 51 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 5: had a mother and father that were separate when I 52 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 5: was pretty young, and I had the good fortune to 53 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 5: have nothing less than an insatiable appetite for God. Now, 54 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 5: when you're born with that kind of appetite and you 55 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 5: live in a culture that tries to pay you off 56 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 5: and bribe you with cultural solutions, if you have a 57 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 5: thirst for the Almighty, like I've got your look everywhere, 58 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 5: and you'll fall down at the ordars of many false 59 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 5: idols if you're not directed home pretty certainly and devoutly 60 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 5: by teachers and leaders and poets and prophets that know 61 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 5: the route through the Holy Gospel. I took drugs pretty early, 62 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 5: and pretty extensively. Fifteen sixteen, I was powering through the 63 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 5: LSD and the mefamthetamines, and eventually found myself on crack, 64 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 5: cocaine and heroin. If you find yourself born outside of 65 00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 5: the establishment and outside of this establishment, farmer colo logically 66 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 5: as well, if you take enough drugs, it makes you 67 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 5: pretty inquiring, curious, and skeptical about the rationale and logic 68 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 5: of the culture. Now, I was always pretty interested in counterculture, 69 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 5: and I remain interested in the counterculture. But I've got 70 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 5: to be honest and acknowledge that many of my views 71 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 5: have significantly changed. 72 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 6: I would never have been a Christian. 73 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 5: I thought of the Christian faith as being a kind 74 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 5: of tool of control and of conformity. I would have 75 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 5: always been opposed to your second Amendment. 76 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 6: Is it your second amendment? Your right to bear arms? 77 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 5: I would have thought that America's gun crime problem and 78 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 5: gun death problem was intrinsically related to your near sacred 79 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 5: right to bear arms. As I've come to understand your 80 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 5: country and your perspective with more depth and foreigners, I 81 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 5: recognize the significance of having a population that is symbolically 82 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 5: and practically armed against government. I recognize the importance of that. 83 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 5: I recognize that the very institutions that we look to 84 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 5: to provide us with comfort and care and protection can 85 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 5: be not necessarily are, but can be the most corrupt institutions. 86 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 5: I recognize that many of your proud service personnel currently serving, 87 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 5: and many of your veterans, believe in the highest possible values, 88 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 5: but nevertheless have been directed to some of the lowest 89 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 5: possible objectives. The bravest and boldest of America and my 90 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 5: nation too have been fodder for machinery of war, corruption, 91 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 5: and control. And I recognize that if you believe in 92 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 5: free speech at all, you have to believe in the 93 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 5: free speech of people you oppose. And I reckon we 94 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 5: find ourselves now, Ted and Shimona at a pivotal moment 95 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 5: in American history and indeed world history, where our conversation 96 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 5: has to change, where we have to recognize that people 97 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 5: in political power are limited in what they can offer 98 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,039 Speaker 5: America and the world, and that we, as in the 99 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 5: visuals and a collective Christian community, have to awaken together 100 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 5: to ensure the path is made straight for his return. 101 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 2: You know, I want to. 102 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 1: I know Ted's going to jump in here about the 103 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: second member, but if I don't take this opportunity to 104 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: talk to you about faith, I don't want to miss 105 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: out on that. And that's everything to me. It's so 106 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: important to me, and I've seen you change over the years. 107 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: I want to know, Russell, what was it? Was it 108 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: one thing that caused you to go to Christ, to 109 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior. 110 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 2: I've seen your social media posts. 111 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 1: You have made a huge shift, and what was that 112 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: one thing or what is your testimony. 113 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 5: At the same time that I was accused of various 114 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 5: sexual offenses in the UK, with which I've now been charged, 115 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 5: my we inform my wife and I that my son 116 00:06:55,440 --> 00:07:00,919 Speaker 5: had a series of prew It was observed in euro 117 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 5: that my son had a condition called tetrology of Fallow, 118 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 5: which is a sort of a heart defect, and we 119 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 5: were offered late term abortion as his customary in those circumstances. 120 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 5: I feel like these kind of twin shocks, an attack 121 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 5: on my identity and attack on the past, sort of 122 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 5: a sort of a rational sense that everything that I'd 123 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 5: done in the past was sort of being changed and 124 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 5: sort of repurposed and used against me, that lies were 125 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 5: being told for a variety of reasons that are sometimes 126 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 5: difficult to understand and put together. While experiencing something as 127 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 5: personal as knowing that our child was in danger opened 128 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 5: up a different space in me, opened up the kind 129 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 5: of uncertainty that was I was very uncertain and unsure 130 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 5: as helpful film. I've been in recovery from addiction for 131 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 5: a long time, twenty two and a half years since 132 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 5: I've drank or used drugs, and you can't do that 133 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 5: without a spiritual program. 134 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 6: Indeed, addiction, in essence is a spiritual craving. 135 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 5: Fundamentally, the addict is a person that cannot live in 136 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 5: this world without God. And when you're shown the panoply 137 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 5: of false idols, the various pagan god's fame, money, sex, well, 138 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 5: whatever it might be, all of which are crew around 139 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 5: the order of self. If you're lucky enough, as I 140 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 5: have been through experience, to the up close encounters with 141 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 5: those false deities. 142 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 6: Then you know that they will never work. 143 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 5: But that's really a rational rendering of what was very 144 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 5: very highly emotional and spiritual. I weren't shown Christ as 145 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 5: a kid alo both my grandmothers, for example, Christian one, 146 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 5: prostant one Catholic. I just thought of it as fairy tales, 147 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 5: and when I went to church in the UK, I 148 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 5: thought of it as sort of just dusty old stuff, 149 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 5: or when it was Invanity, evangelical and zealous, cheesy and 150 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 5: kind of crap. I was never introduced to a kind 151 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 5: of robust and psychedelic supernatural Christ, the son of the 152 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 5: Living God, living salvation, die on the cross, the covenant 153 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 5: of the Blood. The christlist stands outside of time, negotiating 154 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 5: with evil on our behalf, dying that we might be 155 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 5: born again. 156 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 6: In no eternity. 157 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 5: Somehow they made that sound sort of boring and unreal, 158 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 5: and anything supernatural can sound unreal. But all nature rests 159 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 5: upon the supernatural all time, and chaos represents rests upon 160 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 5: the holy order of He that is outside of time. 161 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 5: So I reckon what it was was as my identity 162 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 5: sort of collapsed as a result of seeing fame. 163 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 6: Kind of scattered and dashed. 164 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 5: And as the pain of knowing what me and my 165 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 5: wife were embarking on. 166 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 6: Although that pain has brought us so much joy and 167 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 6: so much glory. 168 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 5: Our little son is well and beautiful and nearly two, 169 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 5: and I love him so much. Obviously, the introduction of 170 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 5: Christ came that in the sort of fog and blur 171 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 5: and falling apart. I felt him as well as very 172 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 5: practically Christians come in towards me. It was Christ himself 173 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 5: that became most iridescent and irresistible and present and absolute 174 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 5: and real. At first, quite gently, I never thought I 175 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 5: was going to get baptized, or become a Christian, or 176 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 5: start going to church and reading the Bible. 177 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 6: But I do all of the time. 178 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,719 Speaker 5: It's the very center of my life to take communion, 179 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 5: to pray and to be with Him.

He 255 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 10: was sitting next to General Flynn and Mike Tyson and 256 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 10: even founding on the table with a baseball bat. I 257 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 10: was like, how did you get past Secret Service with 258 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 10: a baseball bat? 259 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 9: Where it's only ten years I could do that? Yeah, See, 260 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 9: that wasn't that wasn't just on the table with it. 261 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: That wasn't interesting because they gave everybody, not everybody, but 262 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: they gave the recipients of this the Defender of Freedom Award, 263 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: and they gave them all you know, the baseball bats. 264 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 7: You got one, right, yeah. 265 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, So that was an interesting choice to give away 266 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: when the President ended up showing up and at mar 267 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: A Lago. But I got to tell you we're gonna, 268 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna.

But I just wanted to say 275 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: I ended up sitting sitting right next to you, in 276 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: between you and Janice Trey from Epic Times, and man, 277 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: I thought I hit the lottery. That was spectacular. And 278 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: congratulations on your award, by the. 279 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 9: Way, thank you. That's very Kinnie, Thank you. 280 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: So so people keep hearing about this term biohacking. It 281 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: sounds high tech and complicated, but what is it really 282 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 1: and what does it mean to biohack your body become 283 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: the ultimate human? 284 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 10: We basically what it means is you know, we're really 285 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 10: fascinatingly getting back through the basics, right. I mean, it's 286 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 10: funny how the science of anti aging and longevity has 287 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 10: come full circle. We're realizing, for example, that you can't 288 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 10: diet your way around for sleep. You can't sleep your 289 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 10: way around a bad diet, and you can't exercise your 290 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 10: way around either, you know. And when we actually look 291 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 10: at you know, the big data, let's say blue zones 292 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 10: for example, there was no continuity between diets and the 293 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 10: blue zones. So it wasn't keto paleo, pescatarian, vegan, vegetarian 294 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 10: raw food that extended life. What extended life was the 295 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 10: absence of processed foods. What extended life was mobility into 296 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 10: later in life. What extended life was a sense of community, 297 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 10: a sense of purpose. Very often people's religious orientation because 298 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 10: it gave them a sense of community, it gave them a. 299 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 9: Sense of purpose. 300 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 10: And so biohacking is really the best biohacks are about 301 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 10: getting back to the basics. So when we talk about 302 00:16:55,240 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 10: biohacks like sauna, breathwork, grounding, sunlight, red light therapy, all 303 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 10: of these things are taking the best of what mother 304 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:08,719 Speaker 10: nature gave us and bringing them into the home. So, 305 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 10: for example, earthing and grounding is a very real thing. 306 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,360 Speaker 10: The earth has a low galse current. We discharge into 307 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 10: the earth, and when you discharge into the earth, you 308 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 10: repolarize the surface of your cells. And when that happens, 309 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 10: your cell can now exchange with its outside environment. It 310 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 10: can eliminate waste, it can repair, it can detoxify, it 311 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 10: can regenerate when you do things like expose your skin 312 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 10: to sunlight. We've been taught to fear the sun. But 313 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 10: when we expose our skin to sunlight for not prolonged 314 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 10: periods of time, we produce vitamin D three. We produce 315 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 10: all kinds of compounds that are very beneficial for improving 316 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 10: our circulation, for reducing inflammation, and for giving us the 317 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 10: necessary hormones and vitamins that. 318 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,719 Speaker 9: We need for core function. 319 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 10: You know, vitamin D three a deficiency and vitamin D 320 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 10: three was the second leading cause of morbidity and COVID. 321 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 10: And yet we don't even need to eat or drink 322 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 10: or take a supplement. All we need to do is 323 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 10: expose our skin to the sun. And so very often 324 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 10: these biohacks, things like saun a red light cold plunge. 325 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 10: These are not new things. There are things we're actually 326 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 10: bringing back from our ancestry and incorporating them into our 327 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 10: lives because we realize they have real physiologic benefits. So, 328 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 10: for example, a biohacking tool is usually a tool that 329 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 10: creates what we call a hormetic stress. Ormesis is the 330 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 10: is the process in the human body where you apply 331 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 10: a stress and the body strengthens in response. So, in 332 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 10: other words, if you don't load your bones, they don't strengthen. 333 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 10: If you don't tear your muscles, they don't grow. If 334 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 10: you don't challenge your immune system, it weakens. So what 335 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 10: are some date ways that we can take different supplements 336 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 10: or equipment or different activities and put these minor stresses 337 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 10: on the body so that we strengthen in response. Cold 338 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 10: water is a perfect mechanism of that. You know, we 339 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 10: get into cold water fifty two down to forty eight 340 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 10: degrees three minutes minimum and six minutes maximum. 341 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 9: That rapid loss of heat is a hormetic stress. Well, 342 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 9: what does it do? 343 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 10: Its skyrockets are dopamine, are nourepinephrin level. It makes us 344 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 10: focused and concentrated. It turns on a thermostat in our 345 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 10: body called brown fat, which exchanges calories for a measure 346 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 10: of heat. It causes our liver to release cold shock 347 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 10: proteins which scour the body of inflammation, free radical oxidation, 348 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 10: and it even helps with a peripheral vaso constriction to 349 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 10: drive blood into our core. So that would be a 350 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 10: bio hack cold water being used to strengthen the body. 351 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 10: Sauna does a very similar thing. You release heat shock proteins, 352 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 10: you dilate the maasku of the chut, and you eliminate waste. 353 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 10: And by waste, I don't mean stul or urine. I 354 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 10: mean cellular waste, mold, micotox it's heavy metals, parasites, viruses, 355 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 10: these things that are plaguing our immune system. So the 356 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 10: whole biohacking world is based on the premise of what 357 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 10: can I do or expose my body to that will 358 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 10: actually cause it to strengthen In response, you know, I 359 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 10: have a saying that aging is the aggressive pursuit of comfort, 360 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 10: and nothing is more accurate. 361 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:15,479 Speaker 9: Than that statement. 362 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that, unfortunately, and I agree with you. 363 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: What are the telltale signs that someone who's watching now 364 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: is agreeing with everything that you said? And what are 365 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: the signs that their body is actually breaking down. 366 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 10: Well, what we would call consequences of aging are generally 367 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 10: not consequences of aging at all. There are consequences of 368 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 10: missing raw material in the human body. So let me 369 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 10: give you an example. If I was to show you 370 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 10: a soil lineage study between nineteen forty five and twenty 371 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,360 Speaker 10: twenty two, In other words, what kind of nutrient density 372 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 10: did the soil have back then versus what kind of 373 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 10: nutrient density does it have now? It would absolutely frighten you. Right, 374 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 10: we have gleaned the fields. Bible tells us not to do. 375 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:02,959 Speaker 10: But we have gleaned the fields. 376 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 9: We have overfarmed. 377 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 10: We have put too many herbicides, pesticides, secticide preservatives of 378 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 10: all kinds of toxins into our soil. We've disrupted the 379 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 10: microbiome of the soil, and now that animals that eat 380 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 10: that soil and the plants that grow in that soil 381 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,640 Speaker 10: are deficient in the raw materials that our body needs 382 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 10: to do its job. If I was to actually show 383 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 10: you a really complicated chart of your cellular biology, this 384 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 10: vast maze of reactions going on three hundred billion times 385 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 10: a day inside every single cell of your body. What 386 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,479 Speaker 10: would be fascinating about that chart is that delay person 387 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 10: if you zoomed in on that chart, would recognize the 388 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 10: name of everything on that chart, meaning they would recognize 389 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 10: the name of common vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, nutrients 390 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 10: that you are used to hearing about. When you deprive 391 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 10: the body of certain raw material, you get the expression 392 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 10: of disease. 393 00:21:58,200 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 9: Let me give you an example. 394 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 10: We live in Florida, right, So if you had a 395 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 10: leaf rotting in a palm tree, let's say, and you 396 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 10: called a true arborist, a true botanist out to look 397 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 10: at that leaf, they wouldn't even touch the leaf. They 398 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 10: would contest the soil and they would say, you know what, 399 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 10: there is no nitrogen in the soil, and they would 400 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 10: add nitrogen to the soil and the leaf would heal. 401 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:22,679 Speaker 9: Human beings are no different. 402 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 10: So the consequences of aging are things that we have 403 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 10: actually learned to assume are normal. We have normalized it 404 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 10: in our social circles. Why because at a certain age, 405 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 10: at fifty years old, everybody's wearing readers. By the way, 406 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 10: these are not readers, these are blue light glasses. 407 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 9: So I don't wear readers. I'm fifty five years old. 408 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 9: You know, everybody's wearing readers, So when you start to 409 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,360 Speaker 9: wear readers, it's not a big deal. Everybody's low back 410 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 9: curves not a big deal. Everybody has some brain fault. 411 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 10: They get a great idea in the bedroom, they walk 412 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 10: to the kitchen and they wonder what the heck they're 413 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 10: doing in the kitchen. Most people are fatigued when they 414 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 10: wake up in the morning. They have bouts of fatigue 415 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 10: throughout the day. They have they have water retention, they 416 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,159 Speaker 10: have poor waking energy. And so we've learned to just 417 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 10: push through these things because we believe that they are 418 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 10: consequences of aging. 419 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 9: And they're not. 420 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 1: Don't go away, We'll be right back and visit Chamaine 421 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 1: Nujen dot Rocks for a special gift, my toxin detection 422 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:19,880 Speaker 1: tool kit. 423 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 2: I'll be right back. Don't go away. 424 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 8: Well, it's the opportunity to be an outside because it's 425 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 8: the outsiders to change the world. 426 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,120 Speaker 1: Perhaps you were born for such a time as this. 427 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 8: Well is the opportunity to be an outsider because it's 428 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 8: the outside is to change the world. 429 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: Perhaps you were born for such a time as this. 430 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: If you know me and Ted you know that we 431 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,479 Speaker 1: love our dogs. I mean I put their pictures on 432 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: my coffee cup. They're like family to us. And when 433 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: I was trying to find some supplements that would help 434 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: help them. A year ago, our German shepherd Coco, her 435 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: tail was fused to her spine and the vet said 436 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 1: she literally cried when she had to go to the 437 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: bathroom and squat, And our vets said, you know, if 438 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: that was a human, we would tell you that she 439 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:22,120 Speaker 1: needed to have her hips replaced. We have been trying 440 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: and testing uncle Ted's Get uncle Ted's dot com. We've 441 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: been trying and testing these supplements for a year and 442 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: I got to tell you she's walking and even running again. 443 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: It's just amazing. Uncle Ted's Natural Canine supplements are powered 444 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 1: by bioflavonoids. That's a plant based boost to help your 445 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 1: dog stay sharp, strong and healthy. They use them every 446 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 1: day and they're all thriving. So had to get uncle 447 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: Ted's dot com to learn more. Check out this interview 448 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: with Razor Dobs. On July fourth, twenty twenty five, flash 449 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:04,159 Speaker 1: floods tour through the Texas hill country and devastated Camp Mystic, 450 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,919 Speaker 1: a Christian summer camp full of kids. Over one hundred 451 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: people lost their lives, including young campers and even counselors. 452 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: Razor Dobbs is a volunteer firefighter with the Centerpoint Volunteer 453 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,400 Speaker 1: Fire Department who was on the front lines of that rescue, 454 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: pulling people out of trees and searching for the missing 455 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: and doing the impossible while the rest of us just 456 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: watched in horror. Razor has been a friend for a 457 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: long time, and when I asked him to come on 458 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,959 Speaker 1: the show and describe what he saw and how he 459 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: kept going, he said two words, God and adrenaline. Here's 460 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 1: my conversation with Razordobs. You've seen the floods with your 461 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 1: own eyes. What stuck with you the most in the 462 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: first few hours and what was it like trying to 463 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: rescue people in the dark. 464 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 11: Well, you know, it's pretty overwhelming, and for like the 465 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 11: first four days, you don't even you're not even really 466 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 11: thinking about it. You're in work mode and so you're 467 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 11: you're not in shock, You're just not you're compartmentalizing everything. 468 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 7: And I was not in the dark. 469 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 11: I was not on that our our swift water UH 470 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 11: rescue team went out. I was stuck flooded in at 471 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 11: the ranch and so by the time I got around 472 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 11: is right when they got back, and we were trying 473 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 11: to rescue other other folks. But but the swift water 474 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 11: team that made it up to Ingram from sant I 475 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 11: mean from kurb I mean Student Centerpoint. 476 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 7: Yeah, that was pretty uh, that was that was pretty intense. 477 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 11: You know, there are rbs being Washington water and there's 478 00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 11: cars floating and people in major, major despair. Some got 479 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 11: saved and unfortunately some could not be saved. And so 480 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 11: I immediately linked up with our guys and we immediately 481 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 11: started a search and rescue along the river, scaling the 482 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 11: river banks and trying not. 483 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 7: To get swept away ourselves. 484 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 11: And we were recovering victims at a normal base, at 485 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 11: a normal pace, and it was very very intense. 486 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 1: How do you know, you said, you compartmentalize, but I 487 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 1: don't want to get to gory, but go go as 488 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: deep as you want to. And you had mentioned to 489 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 1: me that you were recovering bodies, and how does how 490 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 1: do you how do you just check that box off 491 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: in your mind and just go I've got to do 492 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 1: this work, I mean, and then do you get home 493 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 1: and just collapse? 494 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 2: How do you do that? Razor. 495 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 7: Yeah. 496 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 11: Well, you know, I've been on the on the fire 497 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 11: department here in Centerpoint for four years or something. You know, 498 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 11: we we do car wrecks, fires on a regular basis 499 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 11: and we see a lot and now this is like 500 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 11: it's just like two years in a day.

I 757 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 1: had my house tested, and of course, you know, God 758 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:02,279 Speaker 1: bless there are some good mediators out there, but unfortunately 759 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:05,880 Speaker 1: there are some that aren't. And twenty years ago, nobody 760 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 1: was talking about toxic mold. So I had to become 761 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 1: my own investigative sleuth.
