The reason I'm a bad fisherman is I don't have patience.

00:00:04.272 --> 00:00:09.650
The secret to catching fish is having a hook in the water.

00:00:09.650 --> 00:00:13.007
You do have to have the right thing on the hook Is that the secret?

00:00:13.189 --> 00:00:21.704
I think it is you do have to have the right thing on and be in a good spot, but at the same time you've got to have that hook in the water a lot and that's how you're going to catch stuff.

00:00:21.704 --> 00:00:30.832
I think it's a good philosophy for life too, like if that, if the hook's not in the water, you can't catch anything.

00:00:30.832 --> 00:00:33.006
If you've got, if you've got everything done right, you have all the.

00:00:33.006 --> 00:00:36.603
You have a, the nicest rod, the nicest setup, all the right bait.

00:00:36.603 --> 00:00:42.305
You've read every book about fishing, but you don't have the hook in the water, can't catch the fish.

00:00:42.326 --> 00:00:42.726
That's true.

00:00:42.726 --> 00:00:43.628
I guess that's kind of like.

00:00:43.628 --> 00:01:09.546
That's everything else, dude, like you could, you're gonna have all the nicest you know, the nicest gun with the nicest optic, nicest ammo, but if you don't go out there and lay belly prone and put rounds in paper, you're never gonna be a good shot unless you're me, you know I don't have, I I visualize, I do a lot of visualizing and, uh, it saves a lot of money on ammo.

00:01:09.706 --> 00:01:10.206
Does it really?

00:01:10.206 --> 00:01:12.070
It does, yes how do you?

00:01:12.070 --> 00:01:29.924
You're sure you're a good shot in my in my visualizations I am a uh crack shot because, uh, I've watched a lot of westerns and uh, yeah, that's really all you need to do, you know, watch a couple westerns and think about it a lot, all right?

00:01:30.346 --> 00:01:31.709
name, this name, this western movie.

00:01:31.709 --> 00:01:34.093
All right, can I step?

00:01:34.093 --> 00:01:39.170
I'm better if I step oh, it's, uh, it's not.

00:01:39.189 --> 00:01:48.391
310 to yuma, is it no, no, oh what it's older it's about a famous duo.

00:01:48.671 --> 00:01:59.849
Oh yeah, yep, butch cassie sundance kid, yeah, all right bro, I remember when I saw that movie I just like I saw that scene and I was like how do I, how do I become that good with like from the hip stepping?

00:01:59.849 --> 00:02:06.371
Like how did he like what did he end up practicing in his life to be an expert hip shot?

00:02:06.371 --> 00:02:09.588
But he needs to like take that step forward to do it.

00:02:09.588 --> 00:02:10.090
You know what I mean?

00:02:10.090 --> 00:02:11.263
He watched a lot of Westerns.

00:02:11.865 --> 00:02:13.370
Okay, yeah, all right.

00:02:13.370 --> 00:02:23.986
Which also leads me to a question I wonder about, because I was working on one today A gun or a Western, a thing for?

00:02:24.007 --> 00:02:24.829
a gun Fishing no.

00:02:27.620 --> 00:02:34.812
A line in the pond, which is the uh the battle belt, the ultimate thing to look cool is a kitted out battle belt.

00:02:34.812 --> 00:02:36.395
You know it's like.

00:02:36.395 --> 00:02:36.941
Is it?

00:02:36.941 --> 00:02:43.491
Well, if you watch a lot of youtube, you become you.

00:02:43.491 --> 00:02:49.647
If you watch a lot of gun tubers, you just become um, it gets into your psyche that this is what you have to do.

00:02:49.647 --> 00:02:51.412
To become a good shot.

00:02:51.412 --> 00:02:58.110
You have to have a bunch of trinkets on a belt that has a webbing or molly on it.

00:02:58.129 --> 00:03:13.792
Yeah, you know I see a lot of that and uh, like I mean I'm off the gram, dude, I'm just not on the gram, so I don't see as much like of the zeitgeist gun culture you know, like this is in.

00:03:14.171 --> 00:03:33.698
I only see what I see on youtube and a lot of youtube stuff is pretty much like the zeitgeist on youtube is to just poop on whatever the most popular stuff is right or try to just pop the ego out of every image on social media right, and I think like brass facts and hop, hop, he just goes by.

00:03:33.698 --> 00:03:38.508
Hop now on youtube, but originally it used to be a hopalapa feel, I can't remember why.

00:03:38.508 --> 00:03:56.693
Um, and then, like tfb tv and grantham and admin administrative results they usually like will put to test a lot of gear, yeah, and one that I've seen a lot of which has just made me decide not to buy a battle belt, is just the use case and practicality of a battle belt.

00:03:56.693 --> 00:04:05.513
And what I've concluded from my experience is like when I was in security armed security I was yeah, I was running battle belt.

00:04:05.513 --> 00:04:13.086
Uh, if I was in a, if I was in the armored truck, uh, I would.

00:04:13.602 --> 00:04:21.274
If I was in the back of the armored truck, I'd be running a like um, uh, what's it called Not a plate?

00:04:21.274 --> 00:04:23.685
All I can think of is plate carrier, and I know this.

00:04:23.685 --> 00:04:26.663
I it called not a plate.

00:04:26.663 --> 00:04:28.166
All I can think of is play carry, and I know this.

00:04:28.166 --> 00:04:38.701
I have the other one too, um, the chest rig just running a plain chest rig, no, because the armor was, uh, like covert armor underneath my polo, and the chest rig was only allowed when I was in the armored truck, because I wasn't.

00:04:39.122 --> 00:04:44.428
You never get out of the armored truck when you're in the back, right um, and the driver stays in the armored truck.

00:04:44.428 --> 00:04:45.716
You have, you have the back right, um, and the driver stays in the armored truck.

00:04:45.716 --> 00:04:55.569
You have, you have one person who goes and gets the money and then knocks, you know, and deposits it and you stay inside the armored truck and keep it secure, right, um.

00:04:55.569 --> 00:05:10.456
But all I said, like, and then when I was a sheriff deputy, like had basically a battle belt, non-lethal battle belt most of the time because you're like in the jail and stuff um, all I said I really think a battle belt only makes sense in the context of, like, policing.

00:05:10.916 --> 00:05:13.988
Like a dude, and I'm not talking about like the government should have it Right.

00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:25.345
But I'm talking like if you are in a situation where you're not a police officer and you're having to police, battle belt makes a lot of sense and so, therefore, more power to you.

00:05:25.345 --> 00:05:34.259
Um, if I'm in a situation where I'm policing, it's a bad day for a lot of people, probably for myself too.

00:05:34.259 --> 00:05:35.562
You know what I mean.

00:05:35.562 --> 00:05:36.365
Like I just can't.

00:05:36.365 --> 00:05:44.240
I'm trying to think of a scenario where you or I would have to clip on that belt and be like let's go police the shit out of this and have it on our belts ready to roll.

00:05:44.983 --> 00:05:50.271
Because the big thing they talk about, you know, and all these reviews and stuff of the battle belt is like it is.

00:05:50.271 --> 00:05:55.391
It's the same reason all cops look awkward and dorky and stumble and waddle.

00:05:55.391 --> 00:06:06.908
It's cause you have this stuff on your hip and on your pelvis, yeah, and like your shirts won't tuck in properly, your jackets can't go over it or under it properly, and like it just sucks.

00:06:06.908 --> 00:06:13.305
And if you got to throw on a plate carrier or a chest carrier, like, then you're, it's going to get in the way of everything.

00:06:13.305 --> 00:06:24.422
Which is why, like if you see a lot of police departments now once they have an exterior chest rig going on, they move everything off their belt that they can Like radio gets moved up.

00:06:24.442 --> 00:06:26.930
Like radio gets moved up, taser gets moved up.

00:06:26.930 --> 00:06:32.012
Only thing on their belt is maybe sidearm and maybe a cuffs pouch.

00:06:32.012 --> 00:06:36.721
But most guys move the cuffs into the side pockets in the back of their vest and you know.

00:06:36.721 --> 00:06:39.269
So you just move everything up because it's way better.

00:06:39.269 --> 00:06:40.547
So all I said.

00:06:40.547 --> 00:06:42.100
I don't want to rant or parade.

00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:43.384
Man, if you want a battle belt.

00:06:43.766 --> 00:06:45.682
I encourage you to do it, I know.

00:06:45.682 --> 00:06:48.971
Dean is in the market of developing battle belts.

00:06:49.800 --> 00:06:54.326
And first of all, welcome to the Mickey and Pat show, if you haven't figured it out yet.

00:06:54.326 --> 00:07:04.271
Also, a battle belt is basically you see your duty belts on cops and security guards.

00:07:04.271 --> 00:07:08.211
You do see the big thick belt with the gun and the.

00:07:08.211 --> 00:07:15.334
You know you got holster backup ar mag, you back up ar mag, you have mags for your uh pistol.

00:07:15.334 --> 00:07:22.964
You have usually a handcuff, maybe a tourniquet, maybe on the back you have a dump pouch for magazines if you're like a range setup or whatever.

00:07:23.004 --> 00:07:30.670
But you know, basically the reason I have a battle belt is because I think they're cool and here's the deal, here's the deal.

00:07:30.670 --> 00:07:39.661
I think that also the um, I like, I do, I completely see, like the impracticality of them, like on a normal, like day-to-day basis.

00:07:39.661 --> 00:08:04.310
I think, like mine, the way I'm, the way my mindset is going towards, it is like all right, I'm rigging it up for like to have, just like on a range to, you know, convenience on range to have stuff and technically it's like the, the thought process being well, you, if you carry your gun concealed, then you should just train with it from that position, right, instead of having all your gear outside.

00:08:04.372 --> 00:08:11.262
But at the same time, you know you can have, uh, gummy bears and extra mags and everything loaded up and in the pockets of your battle belt.

00:08:11.262 --> 00:08:22.490
But so you know, basically for ranges, and then also kind of like ever since I first saw the movie the patriot as a boy.

00:08:22.490 --> 00:08:27.125
He had his balls and caps and gunpowder on his belt as a young man?

00:08:27.125 --> 00:08:27.827
No, there was.

00:08:28.000 --> 00:09:05.058
There was a scene where his son Gabriel, is getting his son, gabriel's getting is getting taken off by the evil, evil British man and his other son, his younger son's just been shot in front of him and he's going to rescue Gabriel and he goes upstairs and he kicks this chest open and this chest at the foot of his bed has all of his old war fighting gear in it Tomahawks, muskets, whatever, just all the stuff that was, for the time, the most cutting edge modern gear in a chest in his house.

00:09:05.058 --> 00:09:20.158
And so I'm like the part of me is like, ever since I saw that I was like I have to have my own war chest, just like, just ready, just sitting, sure, sure To never be seen, that's all.

00:09:20.158 --> 00:09:25.089
So it's like, so the if I'm ever going to use it, it's for the range.

00:09:25.089 --> 00:09:28.633
Strap it on, I mean, hopefully you know, right and then.

00:09:29.453 --> 00:09:38.501
but then it also just going to sit in the chest full of stuff that's ready for I don't know just wild things Uh, Carrington event.

00:09:38.501 --> 00:09:40.388
Hmm.

00:09:40.408 --> 00:09:41.309
Exactly, I feel it.

00:09:41.309 --> 00:09:42.331
Here's my thing too.

00:09:42.331 --> 00:09:44.176
Uh, also, hey, welcome to the show.

00:09:44.176 --> 00:09:57.118
Um, instead of saving this to the end, I'm just going to say it up front in case, cause I know we are bad about it and I bet our sponsors hate that we're bad about it, but, um, welcome to make a past show.

00:09:57.118 --> 00:10:03.544
If you don't know, we're starting to get the ball rolling on things and getting more traction due to, you know, listeners and subscribers on youtube, so we got some sponsors.

00:10:03.544 --> 00:10:11.453
Um, check out our store so you can see uh products that we, you know, own ourselves and stand behind.

00:10:11.453 --> 00:10:17.240
Also, you may start seeing some links to primary arms.

00:10:17.240 --> 00:10:20.471
Yeah, so we're partnered with primary arms.

00:10:20.532 --> 00:10:21.975
Now, what's primary arms?

00:10:21.975 --> 00:10:22.527
Primary arms?

00:10:22.527 --> 00:10:32.258
They make primarily rifle optics, so they make your 1 to 8x variable powered scopes.

00:10:32.258 --> 00:10:35.477
They make your fixed magnification.

00:10:35.477 --> 00:10:37.086
Um, what are those called?

00:10:37.086 --> 00:10:39.010
Uh prism scopes?

00:10:39.010 --> 00:10:42.801
And uh, they're, they're crushing the market right now.

00:10:42.801 --> 00:10:47.014
Uh, they offer three tiers of their product, essentially from.

00:10:47.014 --> 00:10:50.405
Like you know, there's not a trash tier with primary arms.

00:10:50.405 --> 00:10:51.107
I'm gonna be honest.

00:10:51.107 --> 00:10:54.557
I've seen their slx, glx and plx line.

00:10:54.557 --> 00:11:00.042
If you think of it, p is for platinum, g is for gold and s is for silver.

00:11:00.042 --> 00:11:05.522
They don't do a bronze one because they want to make good quality stuff, um, but yeah, check them out.

00:11:05.522 --> 00:11:06.245
They got great reviews.

00:11:06.245 --> 00:11:17.049
If you, you know, don't believe us, just look at, uh, some of the people who do primarily optic reviews on youtube where they let you look through the optic with a optic camera.

00:11:17.049 --> 00:11:24.152
You could really see the quality of glass between primary arms and some of the other competition which I'm not going to diss on, you know.

00:11:24.152 --> 00:11:43.731
But all that said, I got a PLX C1-8X, bought it with my own money and then I saw, after I bought it, that uh, primary arms had a opportunity for like sponsorship, if you know you're the right fit for their brand, so reached out to them and here we are, so probably put a leak in there.

00:11:43.731 --> 00:11:51.174
Just, you know, I'm not gonna be saying buy all their scopes or jazz, but like I'm certainly gonna reference the one I use because I freaking love it.

00:11:51.375 --> 00:11:54.764
I put that PLXC 1-8X on my 308.

00:11:54.764 --> 00:12:16.850
It's a variable optic and it's more designed, you know, of course, for like a DMR close engagement to long range, and I was putting in like pretty good groups, like three-inch groups out at like 200 and 300 yards with it, which, you know, if you don't know, scopes 8X, it's not, you're not looking at the whites of their eyes.

00:12:16.850 --> 00:12:42.475
If they're past a hundred yards, like even at a hundred yards, it can be kind of finicky depending on the size of your target, right, right and so, um, but really clear glass, the PLX Japanese glass, um, illuminated, uh, uh, reticle, and it has really awesome uh reticle markings, um, etched into the scope for, uh, pretty much quick, uh, adjustments for distance and wind.

00:12:42.475 --> 00:12:54.822
Uh, you know it's got measurements like, hey, if the width of the shoulders of the thing you're aiming at, I'm saying thing, uh, is this width, they're probably at 400 yards.

00:12:54.822 --> 00:12:57.690
If their head is this size, probably at 600 yards.

00:12:57.690 --> 00:13:14.339
Uh, if they're covering the distance of this pick on the scope, they're probably walking, which puts them at a five mile an hour pace, which means you need a lead here and all that you learn by reading the manual of arms and then just looking in the scope and practicing.

00:13:14.339 --> 00:13:32.130
I'll tell you what it's pretty accurate, man, the 300 yards, you know we didn't shut out past 300 yards but using the etchings for, like, calculating 300 yards in my holds, just quickly on the fly, not doing like you know I'm not giving the wind or anything like that just doing quick fly math with the optic, it was pretty easy to do adjustments and stuff.

00:13:32.130 --> 00:13:34.926
So all I said, sponsorships, we got the store.

00:13:34.926 --> 00:13:39.635
Uh, if you'd like liquid death, some dude wipes, just get them through our link.

00:13:39.635 --> 00:13:45.177
Man, we like those products too and, uh, we appreciate any support we get from you, all our kin out there.

00:13:45.177 --> 00:13:54.942
So, uh, with that said, plugged it now like we should um, and moving forward, um, the battle belt system.

00:13:55.123 --> 00:13:57.629
I was thinking this today, which I just thought it was funny.

00:13:57.629 --> 00:14:01.400
You said this because I was holding a baby.

00:14:01.400 --> 00:14:15.418
Oh yeah, not my baby, I don't have babies, but I was holding a baby and I just thought it would suck to try to carry a child if I was in a shit hit the fan situation and I had chest rig on with mags and all that.

00:14:15.418 --> 00:14:25.489
But let's say, worst case scenario, your daddy daycare for the day and you throw that you know baby carrier or what's.

00:14:25.489 --> 00:14:36.317
The ones that are really cool looking, that women use, that are like just it looks like a scarf wrapped all around them and stuff yeah, yeah, it's called a ring sling, like like one brand is called ring sling sure, yeah it just looks.

00:14:36.397 --> 00:15:04.009
Yeah, it looks like you know holistic and it looks like it just really keeps that baby snug, uh-huh, um, but anyways, uh, I saw that and I was like, okay, I could actually see the use case of like, oh crap, I need to throw the baby on me so my hands are free and I can run and deal with obstacles, barricades, individuals, and in that situation I could see like I don't, I'm not throwing on my chest rig, dude, I've got to throw.

00:15:04.070 --> 00:15:11.631
I got to throw on battle belt and just tuck baby up with my arms and hold on to baby while I'm getting doors and moving things out of the way.

00:15:11.631 --> 00:15:15.537
And I want to know wherever I get to once I can set baby down.

00:15:15.537 --> 00:15:24.389
I have some of my kid on me, so I can see that being like a use case for a battle belt at hand.

00:15:24.389 --> 00:15:28.618
That said, who knows, I'm not going to poop on anyone's parade if they like a battle belt and they want to run it.

00:15:28.618 --> 00:15:40.965
Whatever works for you works for you, man, just as long as you're not like one of those stands who is like look at all these freaking boomers with their chest carriers get with the times holsters.

00:15:41.746 --> 00:15:46.668
Yeah, also, I'm just not a big fan of posers right some people so people get a battle belt and they're like I'm a cop now.

00:15:46.668 --> 00:15:50.000
And I'm like why do you even want to be a cop, bro?

00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:51.548
Let me tell you, it's not that cool.

00:15:51.548 --> 00:15:54.221
Right, like better.

00:15:54.221 --> 00:15:59.899
There's other things you could do and have more money to then larp, right, if you want to be like yeah, that's.

00:15:59.918 --> 00:16:10.572
The other reason I do have a battle belt is because someday I plan when my boys are in like late elementary, early middle school, we will get heavily into airsofting.

00:16:10.572 --> 00:16:12.754
Oh, yeah and yes I will.

00:16:12.754 --> 00:16:21.017
Then I will wear all the kit things to airsoft with a bunch of sixth graders and I will dominate them that's also the other thing, though, bro.

00:16:21.037 --> 00:16:37.369
Like I did airsofting a lot when I was in high school I say a lot we went like probably a good dozen times out to like professional games, um you know, and then otherwise we just did a bunch of like smaller games that didn't have nearly as kind of like the.

00:16:37.369 --> 00:17:11.335
It was like a, it was free to come, there was a referee and like mission, but it wasn't like you know, people traveling in teams, right, and but the team one even though, like there's a lot of guys who didn't run chess rigs or insane kit, because your magazine holds 358 rounds, yeah, and like mid, mid capacity mags still 100, maybe 90, depending on like the firearm right or the airsoft gun, and so it was one of those things of like you just fill up your pockets, yeah, and like you're good, that's what you know?

00:17:11.355 --> 00:17:21.088
yeah, well, the guy who shreds people out there is the guy who's literally wearing safety glasses yeah, like world war ii trench coat, short like shorts, and muck boots.

00:17:21.088 --> 00:17:30.377
For some reason, I don't know why he's wearing muck boots but it's just like shorts, muck boots and like bandana and glasses that's it and you're just like he's gonna kill all of us.

00:17:30.444 --> 00:17:31.508
He's smoking us dude.

00:17:31.508 --> 00:17:33.834
Um, anyways, I guess I did.

00:17:33.834 --> 00:17:39.335
Actually, I had one vest that had like two mag magazine holders and a holster for the pistol on it.

00:17:39.335 --> 00:17:43.330
It was like one of those cheapo amazon ones, right, I don't.

00:17:43.611 --> 00:18:02.031
I mean that's awesome for airsoft and we we would me and my buddies we had the full like this is also like we probably stopped airsofting in high school so much we were like late elementary school, like full whatever you could find at the army surplus store I mean we had canteens jangling, oh yeah, like world war ii style, helmet clinking around.

00:18:02.031 --> 00:18:03.454
It was great dude.

00:18:03.474 --> 00:18:06.530
when I was, I had all my young marine gear still when I was in high school.

00:18:06.530 --> 00:18:14.193
Young marines was like a boy scout program for anyone who doesn't know about it, um, but yeah, I had had the canteen and the web belt that I used for it too.

00:18:14.193 --> 00:18:16.958
Dude, yeah, dude.

00:18:16.958 --> 00:18:17.699
So much fun.

00:18:17.699 --> 00:18:18.700
I look forward to those days.

00:18:18.700 --> 00:18:21.310
We'll just smoke both of our kiddos.

00:18:21.310 --> 00:18:22.715
Oh yeah, hide in the woods.

00:18:22.715 --> 00:18:31.136
Anyways, moving on, we got quite the assortment of topics for the show today.

00:18:31.136 --> 00:18:35.671
We've been gone for a little while, so we got a little bit of stuff to catch up on.

00:18:35.671 --> 00:18:49.873
But yeah, we have, you know, this idea of you know, is the world getting worse or crazier, or do we just hear more things that just are trying to, like you know, claw to get their own attention on the news?

00:18:50.345 --> 00:19:17.236
And because everybody is a world-class reporter now at this point, meaning like if, in 1952, you had the ability to immediately send high-end photography, video and communication, audio and text instantly all around the world, you would have been the best reporter of all time, right and so, regardless of like your ability, and so now we live in this place where, yeah, is it is it.

00:19:17.236 --> 00:19:19.078
What is what is going?

00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:19.240
on.

00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:35.967
Now we live in a time where I actively shame people who are like putting videos on youtube of like trying to interview someone and I realize this person is not an interviewer or a journalist and the person they're interviewing is they're just actually harassing and it's just like.

00:19:35.967 --> 00:19:38.847
It's not news, right, and it's just like like.

00:19:38.847 --> 00:19:57.931
I remember I saw this video the other day because it just came up in the shorts that I was scrolling and this guy is just like earlier today in something, something streets, an individual seen, you know, stealing a suitcase from someone and I'm like what, what is what?

00:19:57.931 --> 00:19:58.512
Where is this?

00:19:58.512 --> 00:19:59.596
What is this location?

00:19:59.596 --> 00:20:01.288
And I realized it was just like.

00:20:01.307 --> 00:20:06.018
I looked on the, I clicked on the dude's videos and it was just a guy who's just like trying to make news.

00:20:06.018 --> 00:20:09.491
Yeah, and like like, I don't know.

00:20:09.491 --> 00:20:11.105
It was weird, bro, but it wasn't like.

00:20:11.105 --> 00:20:12.166
I first was like is this a meme?

00:20:12.166 --> 00:20:13.209
Am I missing the joke?

00:20:13.209 --> 00:20:16.792
Yeah, like, it wasn't sarcastic fake news, it was just like.

00:20:16.792 --> 00:20:19.376
He was just like and he was just going up and annoying people.

00:20:19.376 --> 00:20:20.317
Oh, yeah, he's like.

00:20:20.317 --> 00:20:22.059
We caught you doing that, sir.

00:20:22.059 --> 00:20:29.089
We're going to report, you're going to be on the evening news tonight and the guy's just like man get the punches.

00:20:29.170 --> 00:20:30.531
Dude are you kidding me so?

00:20:30.531 --> 00:20:34.175
And then the other thing too is like have you watched an episode of afv lately?

00:20:34.915 --> 00:20:38.539
not in a million, yeah no dude that in a long time.

00:20:38.559 --> 00:20:43.221
If you sit down and try to watch through an episode of that right now, it's not funny those videos are trash.

00:20:43.221 --> 00:20:43.964
Those are garbage.

00:20:43.964 --> 00:20:51.951
Trash videos where before I mean that was youtube, it was gold, afv was youtube back in, like the early 2000s like like the the.

00:20:52.352 --> 00:20:53.675
It was incredible to see.

00:20:53.675 --> 00:20:59.275
Yeah, like, how was it even possible to see that many dads get hit in the nuts by a T-ball ball?

00:20:59.275 --> 00:21:02.212
Yeah, but it was like incredible that it had been recorded.

00:21:02.212 --> 00:21:04.672
Now it's like someone records the most.

00:21:04.672 --> 00:21:16.102
I saw a video today of a guy it was a drone shot of a guy in like the Caribbean jumping off of the mast of a crashed a shipwreck.

00:21:16.102 --> 00:21:24.671
He like ran off the mast and dove off of it and the drone followed him and then the drone went underwater with him and I just was like I just kept scrolling.

00:21:24.671 --> 00:21:30.050
It was worthless, yeah right, but like that would have been the most incredible like what am I?

00:21:30.090 --> 00:21:30.692
watching.

00:21:30.692 --> 00:21:31.454
Yeah, yeah, you know it's.

00:21:31.454 --> 00:21:35.974
And so now we just live in a time and place where, like, everything's been recorded, everything's happening.

00:21:36.016 --> 00:21:39.273
And so what witchcraft allows me to see through the eyes of a bird?

00:21:39.273 --> 00:21:39.935
Exactly?

00:21:39.935 --> 00:21:55.038
Yeah, so in the first news, you know, and comparing it, you know, I'm sure back in like 1952, the year you just randomly picked, pulled out of my butt, I'm sure there were way more 15-year-olds being attacked by bears.

00:21:55.038 --> 00:21:57.980
But today we hear about it and it's in Arizona.

00:21:58.661 --> 00:22:00.746
Yes, tell me about it, pat.

00:22:00.746 --> 00:22:07.078
Okay, so a 15-year-old boy was attacked by a bear while watching television.

00:22:07.464 --> 00:22:12.630
Okay, now let me ask you this yes, Are we sure who reported this story?

00:22:12.630 --> 00:22:13.451
It is.

00:22:13.451 --> 00:22:14.536
Did the boy report the story?

00:22:14.536 --> 00:22:16.351
Is this what the boy told authorities?

00:22:16.351 --> 00:22:16.752
I know right.

00:22:17.205 --> 00:22:18.431
CBS News covered it.

00:22:18.431 --> 00:22:20.251
I saw the picture of the kid's face.

00:22:20.251 --> 00:22:24.997
If it wasn't a bear, it was at least the dude got injured.

00:22:25.244 --> 00:22:36.508
All I'm saying, man, is I remember being a 15-year-old boy and watching TV and thinking I could choke out a bear oh yeah, A and thinking I could choke out a bear oh yeah, a black bear.

00:22:36.508 --> 00:22:38.510
I remember chasing black bears when I was 15, 16, you know exactly.

00:22:38.530 --> 00:22:42.218
So, anyways, this kid watching tv, he was in the family cabin.

00:22:42.218 --> 00:22:43.548
So now, okay, we're in a cabin.

00:22:43.548 --> 00:22:45.057
We're a little bit closer to the woods, right?

00:22:45.057 --> 00:22:48.930
It's more likely to be attacked by a bear in a cabin than if you're in.

00:22:48.930 --> 00:22:52.994
You know the suburbs of flagstaff, arizona you're out in the mountainous parts.

00:22:53.015 --> 00:22:54.266
You know a little bit in the cabin, but anyways.

00:22:54.266 --> 00:22:56.934
So this kid, he's a family cabin.

00:22:56.934 --> 00:23:17.109
He got attacked by a bear this last week and the bear came in and snuck up on him, swiped him in the head from behind, got his neck and ear and cheek on the first swipe and then the bear ran out of the house and then the bear turned around and came back in for more and got him like in the body.

00:23:17.109 --> 00:23:19.174
Now I will say the boy lived.

00:23:19.174 --> 00:23:20.377
Um, I think he's.

00:23:20.377 --> 00:23:21.708
I mean, he's gonna be fine.

00:23:21.748 --> 00:23:25.499
Yeah, it was mostly just stitches okay, it wasn't like that one video.

00:23:25.499 --> 00:23:36.571
You remember that one video a while ago where the son on instagram he was hunting with his dad and he just showed the dead bear he shot and he turned the camera and his dad's face was hanging off.

00:23:36.571 --> 00:23:38.573
Like half his face is just like off.

00:23:38.573 --> 00:23:39.749
That effed me up.

00:23:39.749 --> 00:23:40.792
I was actually mad at our.

00:23:40.792 --> 00:23:43.308
I was mad at our boy Ricey.

00:23:43.630 --> 00:23:44.954
Rice-a-roni for setting that.

00:23:44.954 --> 00:23:49.767
Yeah, because he's no context and because he's desensitized completely to that stuff.

00:23:49.846 --> 00:23:51.028
I'm like Rice, rice, rice, serrani.

00:23:51.028 --> 00:23:52.791
You see people without faces all the time.

00:23:52.791 --> 00:23:56.857
Yeah, like that was a little much, because here's the worst part, not the worst part.

00:23:56.857 --> 00:24:01.472
It's good the dad was alive, he was just talking bro his face was flopping around.

00:24:01.472 --> 00:24:06.830
I was like don't let that man talk right now, that is uncanny valley shit, yeah.

00:24:07.372 --> 00:24:12.146
And so here's uh, um, so the bear ended up, the the brother and the dad.

00:24:12.146 --> 00:24:17.107
Older brother and dad came in, scared the bear off, forgot his attention, got it out and the bear ended up.

00:24:17.107 --> 00:24:18.353
The bear is no longer alive.

00:24:18.353 --> 00:24:20.990
The bear has been executed Because that kid choked it out.

00:24:21.444 --> 00:24:22.810
I knew we could do it at 15.

00:24:23.045 --> 00:24:24.612
So here's what I'm going to get into now.

00:24:24.612 --> 00:24:38.901
I think the scariest part of this story besides being attacked by a bear all of a sudden is a horrifying event, because, while I do also believe I could choke out a bear, I can't yeah, and the sheer strength of those things is incredible.

00:24:38.901 --> 00:24:44.076
Yeah, like that bear might have been trying to play with him less than attacking him well, was it a male bear?

00:24:44.198 --> 00:24:52.385
it was a male bear male bear, three-year-old black bear came in, but uh, so you ever have a dream where you ever have a dream?

00:24:52.626 --> 00:24:56.537
you just mean and when you're dreaming and you can fly, yeah, sorry, it's like that.

00:24:56.565 --> 00:24:57.690
You know what I'm talking about that video?

00:24:57.690 --> 00:24:58.151
Yes, I do.

00:24:58.151 --> 00:25:01.334
Okay, sorry, but I think this is common to a lot of people.

00:25:01.334 --> 00:25:07.657
In the dream, something is happening and you need to move quickly.

00:25:07.657 --> 00:25:08.829
You need to.

00:25:08.829 --> 00:25:12.952
Whatever Get across the street, you're fighting and you're punching.

00:25:12.952 --> 00:25:13.705
Whatever.

00:25:13.705 --> 00:25:16.298
Get across the street, you're trying to, you're fighting and you're punching like it feels like you're punching through cement.

00:25:16.317 --> 00:25:16.921
You know it's like sludge.

00:25:16.941 --> 00:25:20.130
Yes, and you're running and you just can't run and your body won't move quickly.

00:25:20.130 --> 00:25:25.088
All right, you know that horrible feeling you have during that dream, just not being able to.

00:25:25.088 --> 00:25:26.413
Oh, my god, it's horrible feeling.

00:25:26.413 --> 00:25:34.198
Okay, this kid who was attacked has a neurological disability that allows him, that doesn't allow him, to move quickly.

00:25:34.198 --> 00:25:35.730
Oh, wow.

00:25:36.066 --> 00:25:38.612
So this kid, the second attack happened.

00:25:38.612 --> 00:25:40.616
You're like, well, why did you get attacked the second time?

00:25:40.616 --> 00:25:44.035
Well, he couldn't get away, he couldn't get out in time.

00:25:44.035 --> 00:25:48.455
So I mean, this kid lived the nightmare we've all had.

00:25:48.455 --> 00:25:49.809
It happened to him.

00:25:49.809 --> 00:25:57.455
He couldn't get away, he just couldn't move fast enough and I mean I just can't imagine what that was like.

00:25:57.455 --> 00:26:02.569
And I was reading the story and got to this part of the neurological disability piece and I was like you've got to be kidding me.

00:26:02.569 --> 00:26:06.057
That is like just a true living nightmare, right.

00:26:06.057 --> 00:26:12.469
And so we've all I think we've all had that type of dream and this kid had to live it out.

00:26:12.469 --> 00:26:15.431
So the kid I think kid's going to be fine.

00:26:15.431 --> 00:26:21.654
The bear's not fine, but look out for bears when you're out there in the wilderness.

00:26:22.476 --> 00:26:23.236
Bro, do you know?

00:26:23.236 --> 00:26:27.138
Here's why I think I could beat a bear, a black bear.

00:26:27.138 --> 00:26:28.660
It's just because I grew up on these stories.

00:26:28.660 --> 00:26:32.843
Have you heard the story of Dale Peterson?

00:26:32.843 --> 00:26:37.647
See, dale Peterson Maybe, maybe, I don't know.

00:26:37.647 --> 00:26:44.924
He's just a dude who, like he, was like a wildlife uh, game and like game and preserve guy or scientist or some kind.

00:26:44.924 --> 00:26:54.335
But he was just up in wyoming doing some biological research stuff on the wildlife up there and uh, there's a bear stuffed now.

00:26:54.335 --> 00:26:57.630
And it was the bear he killed with his own hands and teeth.

00:26:57.930 --> 00:27:07.174
Oh my god it was a grizzly bear oh my, it is only one of two in north american history verified to have been killed with not modern weaponry.

00:27:07.174 --> 00:27:17.395
And, uh, it was verified to like like he dragged the body into, like, uh, another fish and wildlife guy who was like you know, I gotta do an autopsy on this to make sure you didn't poach it.

00:27:17.395 --> 00:27:26.374
And you know, I wonder if he like said that while looking dale peterson in the face yeah, he's just clawed up, scratched up, got bear bites on him.

00:27:26.374 --> 00:27:29.423
He's got still grizzly fur in his teeth.

00:27:29.423 --> 00:27:30.546
You know what I mean?

00:27:30.546 --> 00:27:32.890
This is like I gotta make sure you didn't poach this thing.

00:27:32.890 --> 00:27:36.296
He's like okay, go ahead, bud, gotta go buy the books on this one.

00:27:36.296 --> 00:27:39.566
But then, uh, there was like back in what was it like?

00:27:39.566 --> 00:27:41.769
2014, 2015 maybe?

00:27:41.769 --> 00:27:46.478
Uh, there was like a shepherd from some country out.

00:27:46.478 --> 00:27:48.346
I gotta look it up.

00:27:48.346 --> 00:27:59.876
Um, it was a bosnian shepherd that strangled a brown bear, like he just was on its back and put it in a headlock and choked it out.

00:28:01.405 --> 00:28:03.093
Hey, that's legit.

00:28:03.093 --> 00:28:05.094
Oh, that's King David stuff.

00:28:05.094 --> 00:28:06.663
Yeah, yeah, dude.

00:28:06.663 --> 00:28:09.318
But I will say I can't do that.

00:28:09.398 --> 00:28:13.332
Like you said, I ain't got that, I ain't got that kind of, I ain't got that dog in me man.

00:28:13.585 --> 00:28:14.894
But that was Like you said, I ain't got that, I ain't got that kind of, I ain't got that dog in me, man.

00:28:14.894 --> 00:28:15.555
But that was only two recorded.

00:28:15.555 --> 00:28:17.459
There's only been two recorded in North America.

00:28:17.459 --> 00:28:20.634
So, hey, you got to at least try.

00:28:20.634 --> 00:28:24.691
You got to go out fighting or not, depending on the.

00:28:24.691 --> 00:28:29.195
You know you either got to go full fetal position or fight it out.

00:28:34.664 --> 00:28:36.492
After watching the Revenantant dude, I don't think I could like go fetal.

00:28:36.492 --> 00:28:38.903
Yeah, I think like the revenant just made it it was so brutal being the way just yanked him around.

00:28:38.903 --> 00:28:41.189
No matter what it's like, I'm not done with you yet.

00:28:41.288 --> 00:28:44.074
Yeah, um raped by a bear.

00:28:44.074 --> 00:28:46.884
It wasn't rape, that looked like it.

00:28:47.086 --> 00:28:53.788
I don't think it did I just watched it the other night, like the other week, and I was like whoever said this looks like a bear raping over there.

00:28:53.928 --> 00:28:54.469
It really didn't.

00:28:54.469 --> 00:28:55.690
It was some, just first person.

00:28:55.690 --> 00:28:57.653
I was going to say it looked like it was.

00:28:58.273 --> 00:29:01.317
The thing that messed me up was, when it shows it swipe his neck.

00:29:01.678 --> 00:29:05.467
Oh yeah, you know, and he had to cauterize his neck, oh yeah.

00:29:05.467 --> 00:29:07.874
Anyways, nature.

00:29:08.234 --> 00:29:08.715
Nature bro.

00:29:15.305 --> 00:29:21.972
Wild and another thing that happened this week was it happened just this past weekend, Memorial Day weekend Tornadoes coming through Texas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Arkansas, I think.

00:29:22.094 --> 00:29:22.334
No.

00:29:23.295 --> 00:29:24.355
Yeah, you're kidding.

00:29:24.737 --> 00:29:26.739
Yeah, I know right, Tornadoes in Tornado.

00:29:26.779 --> 00:29:36.758
Valley, exactly, yeah, so known as this is where tornadoes happen, but this there's been 23 reported people passed away from it, over 100 wounded.

00:29:36.758 --> 00:29:39.352
There was one gas station that went down.

00:29:39.352 --> 00:29:45.694
They said 80 people were trapped in the gas station Because, you know, have you ever been in a kind of tornado?

00:29:45.714 --> 00:29:51.827
situation, oh If it was a Buc-ee's, it would have been like 80,000 people trapped in a Buc-ee's.

00:29:51.827 --> 00:30:00.194
But so when a tornado happens in this part of the world and I've seen tornadoes in this part of the world I've been driving when they've been going by.

00:30:00.194 --> 00:30:03.616
You know, when I was little in Texas, we'd have to go barricade.

00:30:04.617 --> 00:30:18.734
We'd get ready Bathroom in the bathtub, Mattress over the basement Yep Mattress in the bathtub type thing and I remember hiding in the basement a couple of times growing up as a kid, because of the tornadoes that were real close and cause.

00:30:19.778 --> 00:30:29.143
If it does hit where you are, it's serious, and so usually people are pulling off under a gas station, even just to protect your car from rain and stuff.

00:30:29.143 --> 00:30:34.122
And so, anyways, gas station collapsed in Texas and a bunch of people stuck underneath there.

00:30:34.122 --> 00:30:40.226
I think they got them all out of there, but it was over 200 homes destroyed in just Texas.

00:30:40.226 --> 00:30:54.401
I didn't see the stats on the other states too, but lots of people out of home, lots of people lost their life, and you kind of just never know when these things are going to happen, or like you can only be so ready for them also.

00:30:54.622 --> 00:31:00.259
Yeah, you know, I mean a tornado is just like A tornado is one of those things that you know.

00:31:00.259 --> 00:31:09.862
It's like there's straight up myths surrounding tornadoes, you know, I mean like pecos bill, yeah, and like, or like.

00:31:09.862 --> 00:31:26.990
You just think, like, think back to like, um, you know, like some of like the earliest civilization stories like I'm talking like back in the greek days, like dude, there's there's stories about tornadoes and like roman greek culture, you know, and we don't really think of tornadoes being something over there in that part of the world.

00:31:26.990 --> 00:31:36.042
We think about it way more out here in the West, but like Native Americans had paintings and folklore and stories about like tornadoes and like what's the other thing that gets a lot of that?

00:31:36.042 --> 00:31:40.622
Maybe volcanoes, but there's not really other weather events that like are.

00:31:40.622 --> 00:31:47.318
So, you know, mystified and tornadoes scare the piss out of me, bro, especially like when you see them.

00:31:47.318 --> 00:31:49.064
It's one of those things of like.

00:31:49.064 --> 00:31:53.761
Have you seen, have you ever been near one or seen one like formate?

00:31:53.882 --> 00:31:54.643
form forming.

00:31:54.643 --> 00:31:56.446
I have the close I've.

00:31:56.446 --> 00:31:57.067
I've seen one.

00:31:57.067 --> 00:31:58.738
I've seen them far, far off.

00:31:58.738 --> 00:32:05.644
Yeah, one time I was driving down, uh, driving down the highway in texas, uh, coming back to color, and it's crazy.

00:32:05.644 --> 00:32:06.999
The sky turns green.

00:32:06.999 --> 00:32:14.999
Yeah, it really does turn green and a tornado started to form but didn't, as the sky turned green and it's raining like crazy.

00:32:14.999 --> 00:32:27.497
And just about 200, 300 yards off the highway, the clouds two clouds converged and started spinning and coming down, so like like it was really.

00:32:28.057 --> 00:32:31.346
It was like the widest part of the tornado at the top had started.

00:32:31.346 --> 00:32:42.920
It like started to turn and it made like it made like three or four revolutions and I was like, oh, it's gonna happen, but it never fully kicked in and touched down and turned into a tornado.

00:32:42.920 --> 00:32:52.269
But the magnitude of watching two clouds converge and then spin and turn down was like we got to get out of here.

00:32:52.410 --> 00:32:54.211
Yeah, dude, same thing.

00:32:54.211 --> 00:33:02.874
I was at my church growing up as a kid on a Saturday and I remember we had just done something like we were playing like flag football or something like that all hanging out.

00:33:02.874 --> 00:33:18.996
We had just done something like playing, like we were playing like flag football or something like that, all hanging out, and my grandfather was coming to pick us up and the storms were coming in and I just saw we all saw them meet and it was like just over the hill of our church we could see it come in and touch it down.

00:33:18.996 --> 00:33:31.020
It was like one of those things of like the angle of it was so close that we could you didn't see it as like a two-dimensional silhouette of a tornado on the horizon, like I could see it coming down at us.

00:33:31.020 --> 00:33:35.148
You know, like I could see like all around the tornado and see the full spiral.

00:33:35.148 --> 00:33:46.384
And I remember we were just standing there and like okay, do we even bother trying to get in the truck and outrun this, or do we just go back inside and like get in the like concrete cell, like basement of the church?

00:33:46.384 --> 00:33:49.195
And it was one of those things that was just unreal.

00:33:49.195 --> 00:33:56.627
Again, yeah, like you said, the crazy sickly like bluish green sky, um.

00:33:56.868 --> 00:34:07.798
And then, uh, billy, gina and I we were driving to a housewarming party or something like that recently I think it was just the spring, if I remember correctly and we saw a tornado touch down in a cornfield oh wow, tear it up.

00:34:07.798 --> 00:34:10.240
And we saw some storm chasers turn off to chase it.

00:34:10.240 --> 00:34:12.619
Oh yeah, but it wasn't a big one, it just pulled off.

00:34:12.619 --> 00:34:19.362
But it was one of the things where I saw and I know Billy Jean was like oh my god, like what are we gonna do?

00:34:19.362 --> 00:34:25.387
And I gonna do and I was like we're not, we don't have to worry about that one you know, because it was a pretty skinny one, more like a dirt devil.

00:34:25.567 --> 00:34:26.467
Yeah, I mean it was.

00:34:26.467 --> 00:34:28.789
It was like it was big and it went up into the sky.

00:34:28.849 --> 00:34:33.737
It was fully connected, oh yeah, but it wasn't but it wasn't like the one that's picking up my car.

00:34:33.737 --> 00:34:34.679
You know what I mean.

00:34:34.679 --> 00:34:39.356
It was the one that's like you don't want to be outside near it because it'll pick you up and take you away.

00:34:39.356 --> 00:34:43.864
But if you're in your house or in your car you're fine, right, um, but it was cool, it was crazy cool.

00:34:43.884 --> 00:34:45.465
She's like I didn't know they were here.

00:34:45.465 --> 00:34:50.018
I was like there's more here than there are in most other parts of the world.

00:34:50.018 --> 00:34:54.206
So, um, but yeah, that's pretty sad, dude.

00:34:54.206 --> 00:34:58.101
I saw like the storm, like death toll and all that stuff and that was pretty crazy.

00:34:58.101 --> 00:35:03.661
But it is one of those things of like kind of comes with the territory out there in like tornado valley.

00:35:03.661 --> 00:35:06.327
You know, it's like the same thing when you know.

00:35:06.327 --> 00:35:22.625
You know, I'm not saying you should be not caring or not empathetic, but it is one of those things of like people been living there a long time, they kind of know what to expect and like the seasonality stuff it occurs and it's like the same thing of a hurricane in florida yeah or like building your house on the side of a hill in california.

00:35:22.824 --> 00:35:25.188
It's like right, mudslides happen, man.

00:35:25.188 --> 00:35:33.315
Or you know out here where we're at building your house in the mountains, like there's not mudslides but there's fires, and you know that's what you accept when you build your house here.

00:35:34.219 --> 00:35:37.246
So and the main thing is, people just don't think about it.

00:35:37.246 --> 00:35:53.045
You don't have a bigger view of history and what's happened or that storms can happen and how those things can, even if it's, there's two year cycles, five year cycles, there's 100 year cycles, 500 year cycles on storms and when they come and how they happen and sometimes they can be devastating.

00:35:53.465 --> 00:36:17.193
Speaking of which we just had a little cycle here recently, the uh a cme event, uh, coronal mass ejection, which is the term to describe the ejection of the particles from the sun that are ejected out of solar flares, essentially from the sun, and sent hurtling through space.

00:36:17.193 --> 00:36:21.952
And those I just said the word.

00:36:21.952 --> 00:36:24.257
Why did I forget those?

00:36:24.257 --> 00:36:25.980
I just said the word.

00:36:25.980 --> 00:36:26.882
Why did I forget the word?

00:36:26.882 --> 00:36:27.963
Yeah, I just said it.

00:36:27.963 --> 00:36:29.425
Man, I'm on guys.

00:36:29.425 --> 00:36:32.110
This is the real news for the Make it Bad Show.

00:36:32.110 --> 00:36:34.335
I have dementia.

00:36:36.478 --> 00:36:46.248
The particles, Particles there we go yeah, particles, but the particles they maintain a charge and concentrate enough they can actually peel through.

00:36:46.248 --> 00:36:59.666
And I say peel because when you see an image of like there is magnetic field, it's kind of like the magnetic field is being peeled away a little bit by these and just sustains itself because it's not strong enough.

00:36:59.666 --> 00:37:07.768
But if a coronal mass ejection is powerful enough, it peels through our magnetosphere and can, like, literally do quite a bit of damage.

00:37:07.768 --> 00:37:17.677
And, uh, one of the side effects every time there's a solar flare that we get hit by is aurora, borealis, and I say borealis because I think borealis is regional.

00:37:17.677 --> 00:37:26.610
So northern lights, yeah, but like there's aurora, there's auroras that you can see outside of the Borealis or the region of it.

00:37:26.610 --> 00:37:29.702
But anyways, that's an effect, you see.

00:37:29.702 --> 00:37:34.666
And recently, just a couple weeks ago, we had a huge one that went so far south.

00:37:34.666 --> 00:37:52.067
I think some people said they saw Northern Lights as far south as like northern Alabama, which is like that's not where you want to be seeing the northern lights, that's not alaska, yeah, like, if it's, if it's getting down that far, bud, that's a big solar flare.

00:37:52.067 --> 00:38:01.356
Um and uh, a lot of people might have seen movies like geostorm or gosh, I don't know what other solar flare movies.

00:38:01.356 --> 00:38:31.538
There's a couple of them that essentially say, like you know, if a CME is powerful enough, it actually works like an EMP and it could take our grid offline and it will disrupt our power supply, internet, phone lines, it will shut down satellites, and so, all of that said, I kind of want to talk about the one that started it all and what is, you know, predicted to occur again in the next decade or so, and we'll see how accurate that is Right.

00:38:32.018 --> 00:38:33.400
