00:00:59.340
special can you believe we're at september already um all hands it's been all hands on deck
00:01:07.260
as president trump not just drives the narrative but really drives the actions that we're seeing
00:01:13.900
to save the country and we're going to get into that today in particular about work entrepreneurship
00:01:19.160
uh all of it whereas it's taken where it is taking our country and um um how we in this audience can
00:01:28.500
help even drive it further and we're gonna do it with a bunch of people that you hear regularly on
00:01:32.740
the show we're gonna take a little more time to go through exactly what they're working on and one
00:01:37.280
of the things i hope to inspire you today is how starting off as an entrepreneur is never easy
00:01:43.380
uh and you've got to be able to handle failure because you know 80 percent of the time as you're
00:01:49.180
doing even entrepreneurial activity you don't feel like you're winning uh until it starts to all come
00:01:55.260
together so we get into all that we get just an all-star cast today also i have some commentary on
00:02:01.880
some of my favorite topics like h1b visas and all the everything that's out there to suppress
00:02:08.060
the um the value creation of work of the american citizen i want to start with taj gill um and taj
00:02:16.140
i want to compare and contrast something you know you've um i have you on here a lot to talk about when
00:02:22.060
we have um you know developments in in military activity because you had so many deployments you
00:02:27.780
you were the tip of the spear for really a couple of decades in in um in defending our country uh and
00:02:35.660
particularly defending our country's interest overseas and at least as you were led to believe
00:02:40.780
at the time that the vital national security interest of the united states how would you compare
00:02:46.600
and contrast today because you've totally changed you know your focus at least on your daily activities to
00:02:54.140
be an entrepreneur in this incredible coffee company that you committed because we talked to
00:02:59.080
you i talked to you for years as you were setting it up about a level of excellence and to be able to
00:03:04.300
do something different in a very crowded field which is really for i'm gonna do coffee i'm gonna make the
00:03:09.140
best coffee that's ever been right as we call it the champagne of coffee compare and contrast that
00:03:14.020
to all those years you spent as both a navy seal and then a contractor essentially doing navy seal
00:03:19.140
uh navy seal responsibility maybe for more pay but less benefits uh compare and contrast what your
00:03:26.100
focus was every day there uh versus what you're focusing here not just kind of the work you did but the
00:03:31.800
your task and purpose at the time yeah it's uh it's basically like 180 degrees out now um
00:03:40.760
back then i was it was just like war war war you know um i went straight from the seal teams over to
00:03:48.800
contracting working for the government on classified programs and it was literally all all i cared about
00:03:57.000
was you know shooting guns blowing things up um doing the mission and i was constantly cycling in
00:04:03.640
and out of iraq and afghanistan and africa and that i it was a completely different mindset and then um
00:04:12.160
i to be honest with you i didn't even realize i i'd gone overseas so many times until
00:04:16.400
2015 i was doing a reinvestigation for my security clearance and the federal investigator told me to
00:04:23.080
write down every single trip i've done on a government passport and
00:04:26.360
i you know dug through all my emails and all the trips and i started writing them down and
00:04:31.240
then i realized i'd been overseas so many times and i i thought it was only like four or five times and
00:04:37.760
it was like 16 times in the war zones and then there's a bunch of more trips and
00:04:41.740
to not to war zones to other places but i was just continuously going in and out of the the war
00:04:48.680
zones and all over the world working for the government and and now um i've got a total
00:04:54.680
mind shift change you know this days it's about my wife my kids the business and just being a good
00:05:05.680
person you know connected with god it's completely different um the whole the whole mind shift is
00:05:13.300
completely different now like like 180 out like back then you know i had one daughter
00:05:19.660
back then and i i rarely saw her i was i was gone like 10 months out of the year for basically
00:05:26.400
since the late 90s up until 2014 is when i stopped going overseas so it's a complete and total different
00:05:34.660
mind shift and that and then now it's just like um getting business done taking care of the family
00:05:40.580
being a good american you know being aligned with god and that's it
00:05:47.060
what is it in um in the risk you're taking like when you stepped out and did this you just had an
00:05:56.660
idea i want to make the greatest coffee in the world but at the time you had no earthy idea the
00:06:01.220
complexity where you get the beans how you roast it i mean everything walk people through how you
00:06:05.200
basically start with a blank piece of paper and because i think this is um it's that first step
00:06:12.980
that i think keeps a lot of people like i can't do it right i i dream about it i want to do it but i
00:06:18.720
can't make that first step of that commitment to actually make it done walk us through your walk us
00:06:23.820
through your journey in that regard yeah um it started actually the the coffee was a secondary
00:06:30.820
idea it first started out i was doing the t-shirts i was doing these hillary clinton kill my friends
00:06:34.920
t-shirts for a few years and that actually it was cranking and that was just a fun idea it was like a
00:06:40.840
side project it you know when hillary was running for president in 2016 i i wanted to get the whole
00:06:47.220
benghazi story out there so i made the t-shirts and and then it turned into something that i didn't
00:06:52.000
know it was going to turn into a business and i was running it and then we ended up getting banned
00:06:56.400
on the social media and like zuckerberg shut down all our advertising accounts on facebook and
00:07:01.160
instagram and that's what the whole business hinged upon back then so coffee was on the on
00:07:06.640
the whiteboard it was always on the back burner and so i figured it was a good time to pivot to coffee
00:07:12.540
so right before we shut down the t-shirts i i started selling coffee for a couple months just to kind
00:07:18.320
test it out and people liked it and then you know it took it took a while to find a good roaster that
00:07:26.260
would help me you know find the beans because most most of the coffee out there it's burnt and it's
00:07:33.820
bitter it's acidic you got to drink it with milk and sugar the milk and sugar is just to hide the taste
00:07:38.980
of the acidic coffee so that's that's um it was a process and then i wanted to have my own blends so
00:07:46.280
the the first blend was a breakfast blend and my wife and i did that it it took months to create
00:07:51.820
that and then we got that one down and then i i came to you to uh for marketing instead of instead
00:07:59.700
of relying on facebook and google and instagram because i don't want to get banned again by those
00:08:04.100
people because you know that they don't like um true americans they don't like conservatives they
00:08:08.980
don't like patriots so and then you you know you're like i remember the first time i came to you
00:08:14.020
you're like do you have a dark roast and i said no and he told me come back to me when you get a
00:08:20.640
dark roast and then we worked with you on the dark roast we got the dark roast going and then
00:08:24.540
we started marketing and and now now we're pushing it out on um multiple channels now now now we're
00:08:30.500
doing google now we're doing facebook we're doing it instagram we're doing war room and you know we've
00:08:35.380
got a robust email marketing platform and we've we've done over a hundred thousand orders through
00:08:43.120
our online store last spring we hit that you know we've got almost 13 000 five-star reviews and
00:08:48.280
it's continuously growing and then and now now we're looking for more marketing channels and we're just
00:08:54.900
going to keep scaling this thing up and growing it slowly you know we bootstrapped the whole thing no
00:09:01.020
investor is nothing we just started from scratch and slowly wound it up and it's starting to take
00:09:07.440
on a life of its own and it's cranking and we've got all sorts of different coffees we've got flavor
00:09:13.360
coffees espresso k-cups mugs tumblers everything and it's and we're just going to keep slowly growing it
00:09:20.820
no walk people through uh if you're gonna if if they have an interest being an entrepreneur
00:09:28.320
what has been the scariest moment uh in in in this journey for you as being an entrepreneur
00:09:37.320
uh just you know you're gonna fail so everybody fails but get get back up get back on the horse you
00:09:50.600
know you have to keep going and and use the failures as lessons you know don't do it again
00:09:55.580
so fail try again fail try again fail try again and even um you know it's all about networking and
00:10:04.420
marketing is the the key things networking marketing networking marketing you gotta have a good product
00:10:09.260
but if you have a great product and your marketing and your networking is no good then nobody's gonna
00:10:14.620
know you have this product and nobody's gonna buy it so networking marketing and have a good product
00:10:18.920
just keep going you that failure is part of the it's part of the journey so if you fail when things
00:10:25.780
are down just get creative and use your problem solving abilities and figure it out and keep going
00:10:33.860
and that's it that but that's life right problem solving keep going what the seals obviously you have
00:10:41.860
very little margin for error there between success and and failure and failure leads to not just
00:10:48.280
not accomplishing the mission but injury death casualties etc what what lessons did you take
00:10:55.080
from the navy seals that you use every day as an entrepreneur well first off never quit you know that's
00:11:03.440
that's that's the cornerstone to it but then training and preparation you just gotta
00:11:09.280
put your nose to the grindstone and train day in and day out and that's what makes you good so
00:11:16.160
that's why i wanted to have a really good coffee that's why i wanted to have a coffee that you can
00:11:21.580
drink black i didn't want to have a burnt coffee because in the seal teams we you know we always had
00:11:26.340
the best guns the best gear the best guys and i didn't want to bring a crappy product to the market i
00:11:34.440
wanted to bring a top-notch coffee to the market and that's why every blend we do it takes a while
00:11:42.040
to roll them out because i want to make sure they're premium i don't want to nothing b tier nothing
00:11:48.660
second tier i want everything a tier you know tier one everything everything is the best and that's
00:11:54.980
that's what our coffee is and that's why we have almost 13 000 five-star reviews on our website
00:11:58.980
go scroll around the internet and find another website with 13 000 five-star reviews it's it's
00:12:04.880
very hard to do usually the only place you find those is on on amazon we have those on our website so
00:12:10.860
just the best gear the best guys and never quit attitude that's that's what i brought from the seal
00:12:21.320
teams over to the entrepreneur side walkers to where do people go to get to the website how they
00:12:30.780
look at the reviews because i keep telling people this is not tase and steve telling you to buy the
00:12:34.400
coffee just go to the website look at what your own competitors people in your exact position that went
00:12:39.180
and ordered the coffee and then gave a review afterwards where do people go what they what should
00:12:43.660
they be looking for we got about a minute or so i want to make sure everybody can get to the site
00:12:47.300
and spend some of the day-to-day labor day looking at what you've got to offer
00:12:51.800
yeah the website is warpath.coffee and this weekend you don't need a promo code but
00:12:59.000

00:13:25.200
this coffee it is the best coffee out there we use premium beans and they're fresh and we roast it
00:13:33.440
on a perforated drum so we don't burn it and that's why you can drink it straight black that's why

it's not bitter it's not acidic you don't need milk you don't need sugar you can drink it the healthy
00:13:43.320
way you can drink it the the way that sailors do it the way that that workers do it just try it is

twitter etc up there all time and it's totally free also i want to thank our sponsors for our
00:18:13.740
sardy show uh birch gold i think now more than ever you know in this whole aspect of seizing the
00:18:20.180
institutions uh the federal reserve is going to be a huge throwdown with the federal reserve just all
00:18:26.360
of it not just simply about the the governor of the federal reserve it's deeper than that you know
00:18:33.240
scott best of the secretary treasury one of our contributors here for years scott who as you know
00:18:38.560
is a safe pair of hands in fact that was kind of the key for him being selected as scott's a safe
00:18:43.760
pair of hands and the capital markets will you know undersea very plain spoken obviously brilliant
00:18:49.140
uh he'll be able to explain president trump's economic strategy and the capital markets will
00:18:53.260
respond and obviously the 10-year bond and everything's important about refinancing our
00:18:57.620
massive debt uh is kind of uh you know been handled i think incredibly properly under scott and you tell
00:19:04.960
that just from the math stock market on fire and the bond market under control uh scott has said hey
00:19:11.880
we need a fundamental go back to the basics on the federal reserve go back to the basics of the dual
00:19:17.780
mandate which is a full employment and uh and keeping uh inflation under control we have to have a total
00:19:24.700
kind of rethinking of the vision of the federal reserve and so that's an institution that president
00:19:29.820
trump has actually you know um confronted and there's going to be some fundamental changes not
00:19:36.560
just the justice department and other uh cabinet positions but particularly hhs which is the most
00:19:42.700
sprawling even as even as far as the defense department goes hhs the most sprawling you've seen this
00:19:47.940
this showdown over cdc which i think people would argue correctly that it is the closest it's the
00:19:55.640
most lml part of the deep state as far as health and human services it's interlinked with the world
00:20:01.160
health organization and big pharma all of it you're seeing the throw down there and so across the board
00:20:06.440
is kind of the seizing of these uh institutions and uh what i call uh the full maximalist position
00:20:13.980
we're burning daylight we only have so much time although the polling's now out and i had it up from
00:20:19.420
center for the other day the great dave weigel had the poll up there 53 percent of republicans now
00:20:24.720
we'd like president trump to stick around for a third term um and i think the momentum for that's
00:20:30.300
only going to build uh and so stay tuned that's one of the big things we're working on all this week
00:20:35.780
it's just going to be absolutely crazy as um i'll be giving a bunch of speeches and um and and um
00:20:41.760
not just interviews but speeches and going to a number of things around washington dc and we'll have
00:20:47.160
more on that uh later in the show uh preparation be prepared one of the things that we've tried to or
00:20:53.780
some of the things we've tried to go through with you is things like uh to make sure you understand
00:20:57.320
the grid make sure you understand energy what is what drives um the cost of inflation particularly
00:21:03.180
the calculation how important is full spectrum energy dominance when it comes to the trump
00:21:10.640
economic plan and the trump national security plan we keep advising people hey be prepared you've
00:21:17.580
always got to be prepared you got to keep preparation and being ahead of the curve and being able to think
00:21:21.480
downrange at the forefront particularly today nowadays not just with the the storms and uh and all
00:21:28.180
these uh natural occurrences where i think hey look it's just because of the media coverage they seem
00:21:33.340
extraordinary but they have massive impact in people's uh in people's daily lives um you know
00:21:39.880
what do you do in in kind of making sure that your family and yourselves are protected and that's why
00:21:44.960
uh my patriot supply has always been the top uh the top uh company in the space kind of invented the
00:21:51.400
space we've been a partners of theirs um a sponsor for years and years and years remember we went out to
00:21:57.580
east uh palestine uh or palestine i think it's called out in ohio we had them there at the time
00:22:03.740
live it's just incredible support they've given to the show and to the audience uh jake c uh seawolf
00:22:09.520
uh you're with us tell us first i know you've been attracted to this just in your personal life
00:22:13.960
but the preparation industry you know for years people felt that hey that's a tinfoil hat crowd
00:22:21.140
these preppers are the craziest of the crazy and and and they are you know they're all wingnuts now
00:22:29.080
you see from all the natural disasters and man-made disasters and just you know you've got what's
00:22:35.120
happening in the capital markets which happened in national security right now you've got
00:22:38.460
uh you know an amphibious group down in the caribbean with a marine expeditionary force
00:22:43.440
they're talking about you know kinetic interdiction with the carnell cartels in mexico central america
00:22:49.640
even maybe madura so things are happening what is it the the prepper community and and basically
00:22:56.720
getting ahead of things it's not really for wingnuts anymore is it it's it's actually mainstream
00:23:02.660
and the reason is though those folks knew something that people didn't that you've got to
00:23:07.820
you can't depend on the government you can't depend on these corporations what you have to do is depend
00:23:12.420
upon yourself and your family and you've got to get organized in order to be prepared sir
00:23:17.800
oh for sure see i don't know if you just saw the article from washington post that just came out a
00:23:23.540
couple days ago about fema they are well a bunch of them obviously quit after the whole debacle of if
00:23:31.660
you have a trump flag in your yard then we're not going to serve you but they also just like
00:23:36.500
don't even answer half the calls they get on or anything it's like unbelievable they're starting to
00:23:41.440
get defunded the fact that if you're waiting on government programs especially federal programs
00:23:47.700
to come save you it's going to take days and like this one just for the war room posse like fema
00:23:53.720
there's not your safety net there's a chain around your neck they want you standing in line they want
00:23:58.360
you waiting on rations begging for federal government to feed you it's their playbook they
00:24:03.720
keep you weak scared dependent but you know as patriots that's not who we are and you call us
00:24:10.620
crazy for being prepared i call us ready and we're not scared because we are ready the same reason why
00:24:17.460
people can still carry it same reason why you put on a seat belt when you get in your car we are ready
00:24:22.020
for the inevitable and things happen and steve one of the great thing that we're doing this week
00:24:28.020
um for labor day is we have a huge sale going on like a lot of our great big bundles three-month
00:24:34.400
kits everything they're going to be on great big sale this is the time this is the time to stock up
00:24:39.800
this is the time to save all your money and as a war room posse we don't beg we prepare
00:24:44.940
yeah give me i want to hit that again from fema because you know president trump's had a particular
00:24:52.400
issue with fema and part of it goes to the thing that you know fema part of the part of fema was so
00:24:58.460
woke that they saw they would be very slow to respond to trump uh trump parts of the country this
00:25:04.940
is one of the issues we had in in western north carolina eastern tennessee when they wouldn't go
00:25:09.300
if they saw trump uh there was uh you know these uh accusations they saw trump signs in the yard they
00:25:15.860
would they would pass it by but they were always just kind of mailing it in to trump areas and so
00:25:19.820
president trump was was always concerned about this but go back through your your weak scared
00:25:25.180
independent that that's kind of the mantra how the government looks at it what my patriot supplies
00:25:30.540
the exact opposite but walk me through that weak scared independent well i mean it's just like any
00:25:36.720
kind of assistance program they they tell you they raise your taxes their taxes they screw you over
00:25:42.420
and then they develop these programs like and i don't want to get on like the low level fema workers
00:25:48.180
who are actually out there trying to like make a difference who believe in the mission but it's
00:25:52.300
the big time executives that are calling the shots they don't care they're just in there to pocket money
00:25:58.040
into their own stuff like their whole mantra is to for them to get rich off of your tax money
00:26:02.580
and to keep everyone else just begging for their help i think that's just a way to live like just
00:26:09.420
personally i've been different countries around the world you know i've been in afghanistan for a year
00:26:13.860
and the beggars just they die they do like it's a sad thing to say but it's the truth
00:26:21.060
and so that's why working for my patriot supply has been nice because that's our whole mantra is
00:26:27.180
getting people ready for the inevitable whether if you are fighting fema or natural disaster
00:26:34.800
hey jake hang on for a second i'm gonna hold you through the break and uh because i want to one of the
00:26:41.740
things that uh very early on uh some of the writers uh about trump's victory in 2016 and then after
00:26:50.000
uh he was driven from office unfairly with the stolen election what happened in 2021 they talked
00:26:55.760
about the maga movement and and resilience in being anti-fragile right and how powerful that was and how
00:27:02.960
important that was uh in our movement uh i want to come back and talk about my patriot supply and
00:27:08.560
particularly folks thinking through and getting prepared right it shows your resilience it shows
00:27:14.300
your anti-fragile nothing can break you that's one of the keys about our entire movement because
00:27:19.580
the concentrated power in the country now they're trying to break president trump constantly
00:27:25.280
do i ever refer to the fact that if we don't get these redistricting done appropriately and fairly
00:27:32.560
uh that uh when uh they would steal the house of representatives the first thing hakeem jeffries
00:27:39.140
would do would be impeach president trump and try to stop the trump movement dead in its tracks
00:27:45.480
jake seawolf on the other side about maga as resilient maga as anti-fragile and remember you're the tip
00:27:55.200
of the tip of the spear the right stuff this great academy award-winning score from bill conti is going
00:28:02.980
to take us out in every segment of the day except for the last which i'll have a surprise here short
00:28:08.240
commercial break back with my patriot supply we return on entrepreneurial monday known as labor day
00:28:16.540
according to the department of energy blackouts could increase by 10 000 over the next few years
00:28:32.260
it's because of massive energy demand from artificial intelligence data centers we talk about that
00:28:37.860
all the time here in the war room and we have a fragile power grid it just cannot keep up with that
00:28:43.580
demand i don't know about you but i don't like the idea of being without power even for a day that's
00:28:48.800
why i got the grid doctor 3300 from my patriot supply it's a powerful solar generator that runs
00:28:56.180
refrigerators ac units medical devices power tools anything you need to write out a blackout and right now

00:29:40.840
jake seawolf resilience anti-fragile grit determination all of it these are the basic foundational elements of
00:29:52.900
the american character in the maga movement it's the reason as a country we've accomplished so much
00:29:57.840
in what 250 years the 250th uh our year of our 250th birthday um talk to me about that how's mypatriotsupply
00:30:07.420
and in the types of products and services you guys have get us ahead of the curve and make us more resilient
00:30:13.500
make us more anti-fragile uh make us have better grit determination and really support us and
00:30:19.520
especially in tough times sir oh i mean we could start off with the reason why mypatriotsupply grew
00:30:28.440
so big so fast is because our whole idea was trying to make the industry affordable for americans and
00:30:35.680
still have quality and a lot of these other companies they don't believe in quality they don't
00:30:41.100
want affordable they just want whoever's got the fattest pockets to win and we saw the market in that
00:30:48.500
and we toes differently we want our meals to be affordable for everyone like our whole movement
00:30:53.460
is to try and get every american prepared because that's the patriotic thing to do especially when
00:30:59.780
you see all these things like fema like we had uh a lady down in uh florida great story she was ready
00:31:08.440
for a hurricane came through fema took three days to get to their neighborhood she fed all of her
00:31:13.800
neighbors off of her being ready that wasn't a government handout that was the neighbor and of
00:31:19.400
course they're all like yeah maybe we should obviously be on that same train because as someone
00:31:24.500
who's been 14 years in the military i can tell you like if you're trusting the federal government take
00:31:29.120
care of you you're absolutely deeply in the wrong and steve i just quick comment on the um stolen election
00:31:37.980
thing too i think this should be noted that back when obama was elected i was stationed in germany
00:31:44.200
uh at grafenbeer and me and all my buddies we had to like go do this whole mail-in ballot voting thing
00:31:50.840
or whatever and so we went over there and tried to get it all done as quickly as we could and because
00:31:56.780
apparently we voted for the wrong person we all got letters back four months later saying we didn't
00:32:01.520
count your votes because you took too long and that was pretty heartbreaking as a soldier who says
00:32:07.600
yeah you guys have a voice in this unless you vote for the wrong people i guess so i'm definitely
00:32:13.380
definitely convinced that stolen elections is a thing
00:32:16.940
oh man that that's that's so in your face i talked to us about one more time before we let you go i want
00:32:25.420
to make sure people know because you said it was about affordability and quality i also think
00:32:30.800
the big thing that changes and this is before we take on any sponsors and make sure they get
00:32:34.900
access i think the the sales reps and the consultants the advisors you have because most
00:32:39.500
people come at this and they go hey you know i'm i don't have a tinfoil hat you know i'm not
00:32:45.680
living in some remote part of the country uh and because those guys are you know they do it
00:32:50.580
they've moved their families they they've integrated into their lifestyle kind of the rest of
00:32:55.600
americans are how i need to be prepared but how do i go about and do it what i've always
00:32:59.400
appreciated from you guys is the accessibility you have to walk people through everything
00:33:04.820
to start the very basics and they these are these are basic packages that's where i think so
00:33:09.360
like the woman in florida something happens you got a basic package or a couple of packages all
00:33:14.400
sudden the entire neighborhood is living off your rations for for two or three days before the
00:33:20.300
before fema shows up so so walk me through when people go to the website or call in i particularly
00:33:26.280
take advantage of the of the sale you got uh this weekend uh how how do they uh interact
00:33:32.820
with people how do they actually contact sales reps and uh and these consultants and advisors you have
00:33:37.860
absolutely uh we try to make our website as basic as possible and even then it can be overwhelming
00:33:44.100
because it's always like how much water do i need how much what food should i get and like the biggest
00:33:50.320
thing is what is your budget and what are you being prepared for and some of those things you can't
00:33:54.620
really find on our website but when you call in not only do you get an american but you also get
00:33:59.700
someone who knows what they're talking about we have formulas we have charts we have graphs and we
00:34:04.740
help you build a plan that works for you can you buy everything now at once do you want to buy little
00:34:10.760
bits here and there and make progressive orders to progress towards having that safe future
00:34:16.500
and even if people do want to buy it all at once we can't afford it we have a payment plan it doesn't
00:34:22.720
even take your credit like that's your personal information we're not asking for social security
00:34:28.260
numbers or anything because our whole basis is that we want americans to be ready for whatever the
00:34:36.520
jake uh see well one more time where do people go want people to build a relationship with this
00:34:44.880
great company my patriot supply even if you don't use it at first just know what's there understand
00:34:49.360
it like jake said they can help you think think through what your lifestyle is of what's appropriate
00:34:54.900
you know what you want to be in this story you want to be the woman that's got the package that when
00:34:59.940
neighbors are there and the government doesn't show up in some sort of disaster that you're the you're the
00:35:04.440
person there handing out the food you're not the person running around begging for food so where
00:35:08.500
do people go again my patriot supply.com and we have people on 24 7 standby ready to take your call
00:35:15.860
so use that number we love hearing from everyone especially the war room posse you guys are the most
00:35:22.720
legit so definitely call in if you're a war room thank you sir i appreciate you appreciate your brother
00:35:33.220
resilience you know this is the reason they're so shocked this time if you noticed
00:35:41.120
look we curate these other channels all the time so we see it in all its living glory every day
00:35:47.740
but if you see some of the actions they took they never ever ever in a billion years ever thought
00:35:54.340
donald trump would be back they never thought in a billion years that maggot would be back they
00:35:58.060
thought when they stole the 2020 election that's it we've seen these guys they're defeated they'll
00:36:02.540
just go away that is resilience that is being anti-fragile as a person and as a movement that's
00:36:08.940
having the grit and determination to say no we're not gonna we're fighting for our country and yes this
00:36:14.240
is a major setback because you stole an election and um you know but we'll recover from that we'll think
00:36:21.640
it through and though remember think about those four years in the wilderness i would argue are the
00:36:28.180
most important four years of the maggot movement why number one we didn't quit uh number two we
00:36:35.120
regrouped and thought things through at a very sophisticated level everything you see that's
00:36:39.400
happening today is the fruit of what happened in those four years both the the groups like uh you know
00:36:46.180
russ vote and uh and cra center for renewing america and look at russ now over at omv with the entire
00:36:52.400
team that we've had you know on the show forever pay a letter jeff clark the entire team uh look at
00:36:58.140
steven miller setting up steven miller setting up the america first uh legal institute right and steven's
00:37:03.800
not even a lawyer but understanding how important law firm was we had to think it through
00:37:07.580
that's being resilient that's being anti-fragile that's the manifestation of that and the things
00:37:15.680
you're seeing today particularly i love it when i go and get her and i see you know somebody's put
00:37:19.460
something up that's happened and they go that's what i voted for uh it's coming you know you're seeing
00:37:25.640
these results every day and look we're still at the top of the first inning and saving the country
00:37:30.580
and turning the country around but it's from those years of productive work we didn't waste a second
00:37:37.560
right the watchword was always hey we're burning daylight here and you see that in the urgency of
00:37:42.500
the uh of the administration at this thing is extraordinary and on labor day i think it's
00:37:46.900
always time to think through what is our labor been for what has our efforts been for what direction
00:37:53.220
have we been putting our our energy miles grimmert joins us uh from um my favorite uh field of greens
00:38:01.580
over at brick house got my got my package right here that i take every day talks about i want to talk
00:38:07.420
about how you started the company and i on labor day when we have you guys on we always we get
00:38:13.280
feedback from the audience i was inspiring people that hey maybe this year's your shot maybe it's the
00:38:18.640
time you step out and be an entrepreneur maybe that uh uh that that second gig you got or that side
00:38:24.700
hustle you can really turn into a business walk me through your journey sir well my my journey is uh
00:38:33.020
it it's pretty much always been entrepreneurship um actually the coo that is a couple offices down
00:38:40.600
right now he's worked for me since i was 16 years old so uh as soon as i got my driver's license i
00:38:45.540
started a big landscaping and um and uh kind of fixer upper company we'd build people's decks and we
00:38:51.880
you know we had like six trucks and everyone that uh was my friend worked for me in high school
00:38:56.300
and to pay for college and you know hold on hang on hang on hang on hang on this is this is one
00:39:02.320
this is when you were 16 and 17 years old you started right away with the uh with the landscaping
00:39:08.120
business right out the gates yeah and it took off actually uh my high school uh once it got sorry
00:39:14.060
getting big they had this big mulch drive for uh like funding their sports teams and i actually bought
00:39:19.660
the book from them and gave them a cut of that so uh one of their students was running you know
00:39:24.220
basically took over their entire mulch drive it was pretty cool you know we had we had a tree
00:39:28.100
digger truck we had a big dump truck and then i was up in ohio so you know we had a you know we had
00:39:33.240
scoops on the front of our trucks to take up snow we did everything and that was uh pretty much how
00:39:38.140
my friends and i uh you know put our way through college and then um in college i got into uh tech
00:39:44.520
it was my my big thing i had a top 100 app um and then uh that you know i stopped doing the the
00:39:51.640
landscaping and everything back then you're young i should have just sold the company i didn't even
00:39:55.100
think to do that you know i'm young and learning business at the time i just let it go and had a
00:39:59.580
bunch of trucks sitting in the driveway but um anyway so i started getting in tech and next thing
00:40:04.920
you know you know i'm running out of i ran out of money i couldn't even afford college next semester
00:40:08.400
and i sit down with my friends and they're just like well you're i was always in fitness and they
00:40:11.760
go well you're you're strong why you sell supplements and they figured i was going to do that you
00:40:15.600
know door to door to afford you know keeping the servers on for the the app company and pay for
00:40:20.340
college but uh instead i built this like kind of uh honestly to knock off bodybuilding.com but it
00:40:25.220
was a big you know um reseller of nutrition products online and i mean that's kind of the the way i got
00:40:32.520
into nutrition it really took off um because i kind of took the tech background i was able to market well
00:40:37.460
i mean we were sponsoring indie cars and everything like that very low margins especially selling to
00:40:41.440
someone else stuff but i learned pretty quick that the products i was selling there was no reason to
00:40:46.260
sell one versus another it was all who had the prettier girl on instagram or who had the
00:40:50.320
guy with the bigger vein on the muscle mag and it was a race to the bottom of um you know of the
00:40:55.520
product cost and there was really nothing there and in supplements and nutrition especially supplements
00:41:01.420
you can you can make a product that's five hundred dollars and it's going to be worth five hundred
00:41:05.140
dollars you know a month and or whatever but uh i wanted to you know create a super high quality
00:41:10.560
product and not just you know be a marketing gimmick like everyone i was pushing i i didn't know why i was
00:41:15.560
pushing one pre-workout versus another protein versus another i wanted to you know i knew there was
00:41:19.640
better products out there and so i went to dr kim who i know you've had on a few times and he was the
00:41:25.440
the number one doctor at the biggest company at the time and i presented him with this idea because his
00:41:30.920
mentor um i knew and he was very frustrated with even that company he would come up with an amazing
00:41:36.540
formula and like nope we're going with the cheap thing and so he was frustrated and i came up you know
00:41:40.740
i came up to him and said listen i got this idea i know how to market this properly let's use your
00:41:46.260
formulas that are as high quality as we can get that aren't going to blow people out of the water
00:41:50.200
let's make the highest quality products on the market that you know people are going to get the
00:41:54.400
best benefit from and so he he bought into the idea and he left that you know huge company and cushy job
00:42:00.300
to join me and um it kind of just blew up and we've kind of stuck with that you know the brick house
00:42:05.740
way of building products and and doing things ever since which is if it's not a better product or a
00:42:10.920
different product and we're not going to sell it so uh we started off small up in ohio and it just
00:42:15.780
continuously grew and then after a couple years it just blew up um now it's just huge it's been amazing
00:42:22.380
miles hang on for one second because i want to get back and talk about the race to the bottom and
00:42:28.580
particularly what you learn is uh uh so many buddies mind the hardcore athletes the workout guys the
00:42:34.300
also the guys that do the uh the lifting and and everything the supplements there and the different
00:42:39.480
path that you guys took because i think it's um it illuminates a lot for the audience i want to
00:42:44.840
thank uh our traditional saturday sponsor and our special sponsors on the specials we do and that is
00:42:51.540
of course uh birch gold i want to thank the team at birch gold i think now more than ever uh it helps
00:42:57.540
you to be able to think through uh the not just the capital markets but also all geopolitics national

00:44:58.660
welcome back so miles um you've got an entrepreneurial background talk to me about uh
00:45:06.540
particularly because there's so many supplements out there uh what do you meant by race for the
00:45:11.300
bottom and particularly you got so many guys that work out so many guys are into bodybuilding etc
00:45:15.440
and you said hey that was all a race to the bottom so what's fundamentally different when you had this
00:45:20.660
idea what's fundamentally different in the kind of marketing you used to do for these different
00:45:24.840
supplements and what you really created and the kind of driving idea you had in creating this
00:45:30.420
over at uh at brick house and field of greens all of that yeah actually field of greens is a perfect
00:45:36.120
example so there you can you can take extracts and you know buy these extracts from from fruits and
00:45:43.960
vegetables and you can put them into a pill or a powder and you can you can get it very very cheap
00:45:49.620
like i we mike can look at them and say that thing costs like two bucks to make and there's really
00:45:53.860
nothing there however they they kind of prey on the you know lack of knowledge from a lot of customers
00:46:01.820
where it'll say fruits and vegetables and they're not wrong it is fruits and vegetables and they can
00:46:06.380
say there's 30 different fruits and vegetables in here and it does this and this but even if you
00:46:10.120
look at a capsule like you take two seconds to look at it if it's a capsule versus our you know 11
00:46:15.260
gram scoop i mean there's just a huge difference of what you're getting into it so number one is
00:46:19.660
there's ways you can make these products extremely cheap and then uh but not really do what they say
00:46:25.420
they're going to do so even if you're buying a like a vitamin c from you know not to knock them out
00:46:30.660
kroger's or any any random store uh there's levels of quality that there's a reason that that vitamin c
00:46:36.900
there is ten dollars versus uh i'm not we don't sell vitamin c except for a multivitam but
00:46:41.200
versus one versus at like gmc that's twenty dollars like that is higher potency your body
00:46:46.440
absorbs it better and so there's there's the companies that are just going to race to the
00:46:50.140
bottom so that they can put all their money into selling you their vitamin c product versus um you
00:46:56.100
know putting their money into their product and so that's why i say there's it's a race to the bottom
00:46:59.580
of just you know put something in there that you know looks like it does what it says it does and
00:47:04.480
let's put all our money into the marketing and that that's all that's all around i mean there's
00:47:08.220
it was protein was a huge thing with this uh back in the day people put extra aminos in their
00:47:12.840
protein because you can spike the test and says oh i got 50 grams of protein per scoop and they
00:47:16.840
only have 25 but yeah because you added a bunch of aminos in there and you just put cheap protein in
00:47:20.680
there actually 60 of it's going to turn into fat and you're not really absorbing any of the good stuff
00:47:25.800
so i mean there's companies out there we have our own protein now not to do too much but there's
00:47:29.380
other great proteins out there as well that you absorb you know over 90 of it but you're paying a
00:47:34.900
premium for it so there's there's a race to the bottom versus the high quality products on the
00:47:39.360
market and we really wanted to create stuff that was new and different and high quality
00:47:42.740
talk to me about this the study you did with auburn and about reversing the biological not reversing
00:47:50.500
the biological clock slowing down the biological clock and tell people why their biological clock
00:47:56.140
may be different than their own age as far as the duration they've been on this earth
00:48:00.900
yeah we wanted to as from coming on here before we always are trying to find ways to let people
00:48:07.020
know our product is better and different whether we have the the better health promise where you can
00:48:10.880
go to your doctor and if they don't say yep you're healthier based on everything we're looking at
00:48:14.960
then we'll give your money back but we wanted to like actually have scientific numbers proving that
00:48:19.620
what mike created was doing what we said it did so we we partnered up with auburn to do a study
00:48:25.220
um you know we didn't influence them in any ways and it was we figured the best way to do this
00:48:29.660
was a biological age study so uh there's a difference between your actual age and your
00:48:34.160
biological age and it's usually about eight to 16 years so there your your biological age could be
00:48:39.660
much older than you actually are you know on how many times we've gone around the sun so uh and the
00:48:46.280
way they test this is through all your your uh you know your liver your kidney your heart it's really
00:48:50.380
your cells function on uh your body and so uh we took a bunch of participants they didn't change
00:48:56.800
anything they didn't change their diet they didn't work out more they still drank if they drank before
00:49:01.460
it was all ages and the only difference they made was they took field of greens and after extensive
00:49:06.280
studies we were able to see that field of greens did lower your uh your biological age from uh
00:49:12.880
increasing too rapidly it slowed down your biological age from um going up quick
00:49:18.580
well so people go to the site where they go how they go through the site to get information how
00:49:27.960
they contact people you know the war and posse likes to delve into it this is one of the reasons
00:49:32.480
our sponsors have great robust websites and then they have yeah access to folks like you and dr kim
00:49:38.060
etc so where they go so uh brickhouse nutrition.com we're running a 25 off sale just labor day 25 but
00:49:45.560
if you're on brickhouse nutrition.com like you said our we can heat we heat map our website to make
00:49:50.620
sure everything's where it should be and your audience does one of the first things that actually
00:49:55.560
the first thing they click on is the nutrition facts panel and then they go down to the science
00:49:59.060
section which is pretty cool so you're 100 right everyone is actually researching the products and
00:50:03.420
we're happy to to have you know nothing's hidden on the website so you can see all the nutrition facts
00:50:08.780
panel the science everything behind it uh why mike made things the way he did uh the auburn studies
00:50:13.880
right there on the field of greens page um so yeah labor day 25 and 25 off everything from you know
00:50:18.960
our best-selling weight loss lean product to um our radiance collagen which is the best on the market
00:50:24.780
and we want to have a study on that too but uh yeah everything uh 25 off is a great way to try to get
00:50:30.240
healthy as fall comes around before i let you guys just want to make sure because folks that when they
00:50:36.720
watch cable particularly fox they're bombarded with a certain company non-stop yeah on their on their ads
00:50:43.420
why is what you guys totally took a fundamentally different it's reasons not a pill you took a
00:50:49.440
fundamentally different approach give me a minute on that before i let you know because that's i think
00:50:53.540
the most the thing that shows the biggest difference in brick house and field of greens
00:50:57.160
yeah we took a science approach versus a marketing approach so i like i said earlier you can take
00:51:02.920
extracts from products put it in the capsule and say it's you know it's going to do x y and z we we brought
00:51:08.200
mike on for a reason so he every fruit and vegetable is not extracted it's desiccated which is just
00:51:14.700
freeze dry and crushed up put in the product and each one is for a specific reason whether it's heart
00:51:19.120
health liver health skin health or you know metabolism everything is in there for a specific reason not
00:51:24.240
just to say that we have you know certain fruits and vegetables extracted in there that doesn't really
00:51:28.520
do much and even if you look at the serving size it's just you can't keep up we we can say that we
00:51:33.480
have a full serving of fruit and vegetables in each scoop and i mean that's the real difference no no
00:51:38.820
one else can say that and we have a nutrition facts panel uh proves that it's real food just look at
00:51:43.640
our competitors it says supplement facts right on it ours says nutrition facts because we can legally say
00:51:47.560
that they can't one more time where do people go brick house nutrition.com and please use the code
