The saying "an army marches on its stomach" has been attributed to both Napoleon and Frederick the Great. It means warriors cannot function effectively unless we're well fed, and not many of us know what's in our food or even where it comes from. That's a big problem. We also know from scripture, God took man and put him in a garden to work it and keep it. So today, Paul & Mike are honored to have Jeremy Burkett discuss his family's experiences with homesteading as they continue on the journey of learning the original profession of man; working the garden and caring for animals.  

The Operational Detachment A-Team (ODA) has just returned to the G Base and are methodically going through their gear, consolidating, reorganizing and replenishing ammunition and other necessary items in preparation for the next mission. While the team is busy working, Tom Kelly joins Paul & Mike in the center to discuss lessons learned while in leadership and what he's done to help assist current and future Team Sergeants with the numerous challenges of the job.  

Far and near recognition signals have been exchanged and Paul & Mike welcome John Phelps back into the G Base to continue where Kevin Mains left off; a discussion on the spiritual health and readiness of America's warrior class. 

Paul & Mike are honored to welcome Kevin Mains into the G Base to discuss the challenges facing the Armed Forces today. The mission of the warrior has not changed, but the leadership challenges have never been greater. If America's warriors are going to be successful meeting our enemies, foreign and domestic, we're going to have to be able to bring our A Game, physically, mentally, and socially.  

It isn't often a fellow warrior from the Pacific Northwest visits Pineland. Today, Paul & Mike are honored to welcome the Founder and CEO of Intrepid Tactics, Brice Colbert into the G Base to discuss current trends on the left coast; a land of spectacular beauty and abundant resources. Brice also shares some of the excellent training being offered in his neck of the woods. The time to get prepared is now. The chair is against the wall.

In Pineland, we use a currency known as "Don". Like its close cousin, the Federal Reserve Note (FRN), it's a paper fiat currency backed by nothing of value other than a promise to confiscate wealth from the Plebes in order to pay the treasuries (T-notes). With non-stop printing of more and more fiat currency, rising interest rates, fractional banking, and bad loans, is it any wonder banks are dropping like dominos? Even people who normally don't pay attention are starting to realize the current monetary system appears to be imploding on itself. Legendary Pinelander, NC Scout joins Paul & Mike in the G Base to continue the discussion on economic sovereignty and what steps families ought to consider to protect themselves from the fallout.
