Speaker 1: think it's around the weekend of September eleventh. It's EJ's
Speaker 1: down in Dirty Survival Class. Forty eight hours of grit,
Speaker 1: grime and get a good one to do. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: ran it in July, but it was way too hot,

Speaker 1: month later we're gonna do it again, so you'll have
Speaker 1: two opportunities. Uh, I finally get a break for two
Speaker 1: weeks coming up here, so uh, this week coming up,
Speaker 1: I'll get it on the website. So anybody wants to

Speaker 2: Great awesome man, great lineup. We got classes to teach though.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's okay, but we're doing it. We're doing it right.
Speaker 1: I love you guys, and I appreciate all the support
Speaker 1: out there for what we're doing, both for e. J. Snyder,
Speaker 1: Freedom pickles, and if you want to know about being ready,
Speaker 1: and since we're at a prepper event, go to Survival
Speaker 1: Mastery dot co dot com dot co, survimestery dot co
Speaker 1: for all things in your life learning needs. We don't
Speaker 1: just teach and master survival. We master life. Oh you know,
Speaker 1: we're gonna have videos up there pretty soon. You I
Speaker 1: want to have to change a tire, how to change
Speaker 1: your oils?
Speaker 3: You know, canning cooking, We've got tanning, We've got hunting,
Speaker 3: we've got firearms safety. We're actually getting ready to get
Speaker 3: the Boy Scouts in our platform to help them with
Speaker 3: their merit badge program. Every Boy Scout's going to be
Speaker 3: on Survival Mastery going through a separate funnel.
Speaker 1: To do all their merit badges. We're trying to help
Speaker 1: save the Boy Scouts. They're down to eight hundred and
Speaker 1: eighty thousand to want a total across the country, in America,
Speaker 1: not across the globe. So here's the problem. They went bankrupt.
Speaker 1: They have they had, They got a three hundred million
Speaker 1: dollar bankruptcy thing they got to pay. I believe that's
Speaker 1: public information, i'mretty sure, but we're trying to help them
Speaker 1: I just need to do it. So they had a
Speaker 1: real they seen their numbers decline. Kids are getting on
Speaker 1: their phones, they're playing video games. So we built this
Speaker 1: learning platform, survival maastery dot co. So it would interest
Speaker 1: kids to learn about the outdoors and they want to
Speaker 1: go out and try it. And so the scouting. I
Speaker 1: was always influenced by scouting. I grew up, I went
Speaker 1: through Cub Scouts, I got to Wee Blows, it's about
Speaker 1: to go in the boy Scouts. And then my parents,
Speaker 1: you know, we were moving a lot, so I didn't
Speaker 1: get there, but I always supported boy Scouts even yeah
Speaker 1: it's good Brown. My son he was a Tiger Scout,
Speaker 1: he was a Cub Scout. I think he made it
Speaker 1: up to we Blow. So scouting is important for our
Speaker 1: young men. Not the girls too. I know they allow
Speaker 1: girls to go into scouting, but we're also working with
Speaker 1: the Girl Scouts now to try and get things back
Speaker 1: aligned in America. We're trying to help influence that to
Speaker 1: where the girl Scouts go girl Scouts, but ramp up
Speaker 1: the girl Scouts. Not all about just selling cookies. Let's
Speaker 1: get the girls out there and get dirty, but let
Speaker 1: them support each other. Women supporting each other, little girls
Speaker 1: for each other, life forward by women. Let's get the
Speaker 1: boys in the boy Scouts and leave it that way.
Speaker 1: And it's nothing about I'm not being the massages or
Speaker 1: chauven is here. This is the way it was intended
Speaker 1: on this earth. So boys did they learn from a
Speaker 1: male mentor. And I understand men are busy. Women are
Speaker 1: also busy. But we work it out to get back
Speaker 1: to the old ways. And then we interest the scouts.
Speaker 1: They get them to come online and learn online. Do
Speaker 1: we do it like fun like computer games, gaming sort
Speaker 1: of setup and it's, uh, it's gamifyed. So they come
Speaker 1: in there, they're getting their badges. It's gonna bring in
Speaker 1: more scouts. So we want to double the number of
Speaker 1: scouts from eight hundred and eight thousand, double that to
Speaker 1: one point nine million scouts in three years. And we
Speaker 1: think we can do it. And so by doing that,
Speaker 1: we will save Scouting America. And then we're gonna start
Speaker 1: working across the globe Scouting UK next with the Brits yep,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna see a few other things. That's also
Speaker 1: I need to put that in there because that's part
Speaker 1: of my that's the you know, I own several companies
Speaker 1: as a serial entrepreneur, but Freedom Pickles and Survival Mastery
Speaker 1: are my two big feathers in my cap, plus my E. J.
Speaker 1: Snyder stuff with skulls Cross out Doors. But we're about
Speaker 1: trying to one of those two companies. The man I
Speaker 1: can get back to my tow truck company. Let's wrap
Speaker 1: it up so we can do our thing. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: appreciate you. My man is going by. That was some
