 Did you? They don't just presume we're coming now? Oh, you gotta be. Oh, good window blocker. So, I wonder if anyone can hear me. Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, Chuck. Oh my god, my hair looks amazing today. Look at that. Oh my god, I look like I just fell out of the woods. Good morning, guys. And Jeff needs to see you. Popcorn powers. Good morning. Let's go hit the thumbs up. Popcorn power. No sound yet. Okay. Oh, no. You broke your sound. Checking. Can you hear us now? Let us know if you can hear us in the comments. Still no sound. Still no sound. Yeah, sound. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. What if we take the mic out, then we hear from the thing, but it's not as good, right? It's not as good. But sometimes if I just rotated it. Okay. Okay. Wait, one person says he can hear. Popcorn power. Unmute your thing. All right. Two people say they can hear us. That's good enough for me. Okay. Should I start? The usual disclaimer. Okay, guys. I just want to remind you that during the questions and answers part of the thing. See, I would just say, don't be a dick. There you go. But yeah, go ahead. Okay. Well, I mean, that's one way of saying it. I'll be, I'll be dishing it. Don't ask any questions that you wouldn't answer yourself. In other words, just don't be a dick. Just don't be a dick. So just be considerate of our, you know, time and family. Well, popcorn power says we should just mime today. Mime it all. No, the only thing we can do by mime is like smack each other. And squish head. My head is unsquishable. Yeah, it is unsquishable. All right. Oh, we can hear now. Yay. Is there other stuff you needed to say? I don't think so. No, not today. Oh, yes, there was something else. I just remembered. Right. So if you guys are going to ask questions, I just want to remind you, please type the word in capital letters, question at the beginning, or put two question marks. And that makes it easier for us to see it in the comments when we're scrolling through to answer questions. When it comes to that, we're going to spend the first probably five minutes, five to six minutes or so talking about stuff. And then we're going to open up for questions and answers and random chat, etc. So well, I was just going to talk about my week. Yeah. And I've been feeling kind of overwhelmed this week a lot, because I started thinking about all the things I have to do. And I started thinking about that because I was having a slowdown in progress. You know what that's like when you have a slowdown in progress. I've been trying to spackle the outside of my house, the cathedral. Now it is a huge thing. So it takes a while. However, the first week, I got kind of a lot done. And then it was like two and a half weeks, I got like basically nothing done. Because one day there was a thunderstorm. Another day I had to go to town. Then another day something else came up. And for like two and a half weeks, I didn't get anything done. And then a couple of days ago, I got a bunch done and I started feeling a little better. But during that whole time when I was getting nothing done, I was just thinking, oh my gosh, I can't even get this spackling done. And this is just the first thing in a huge series of like things I have to do. Like I have to finish the spackling, then I need to do the roof so it doesn't drip anymore. Then I need to build the second and third floor. But to do that, I need to build a lumber mill. And before I can even use a lumber mill, I need to set up some solar panels for it. And I need to, I'm not just going to throw those out in the yard. I need to like build a thing to put them on. And then to even just get wood, I need to make and make a way to get the wood from where I have a lot of trees to where I can cut them, which is not, it's not just like a road or something. It's like the ocean parts, no problem. But then there's like mud and some ups and downs and stuff. And I got to dig out some channels so I can get the boat right up to the spot where I can get logs in. And then I have to figure out how to move like 1000 pound, 2000 pound logs, you know, I'll probably roll them with big lever thingies like log dogs. What are they called? Anyway, and then I want to have all these plants I'm trying to grow. And I need to get dirt from, from the one land that has a lot of dirt to fill in some raised beds, because I don't want to take dirt, move dirt from off my island into the raised beds, because I'm like, Hey, I'm on an island. I got very limited amount of dirt. I know exactly how much dirt there is. But this other land has got tons of dirt. I could take a few wheelbarrows from that and put it in my raised beds and whatever. But to get the dirt from the raised beds, I have to do the same thing that I was doing to get the logs. I need to make a way in there. And I'm just thinking about all this. Like this is what I, what I do when the kids aren't over. And it's like the sun goes down and it's like, even like during dinner, like I'm eating dinner, I'm by myself. Sometimes I'll watch like an episode of Firefly or something. But then after that, I'm just like, my brain is just like, Oh my gosh, I have so much stuff to do. And yeah, when I'm not making progress, it starts, it starts feeling like it's just going to take forever. But then I just have to remind myself, I just got to, I just got to keep going one step at a time. And even if I'm not making any progress on a day, as long as I'm pushing in the right direction, it's, you know, I'll get there. And then I needed to bring some videos over so you could upload them. And so I put a bunch together last night, because I actually had electricity because the sun finally came out. And so I had, I made five videos of things I'd done in the last couple of weeks. And then I realized, Oh, I haven't gotten nothing done, I have actually gotten some things done. So it's, I used to have this situation in, in Vermont before we moved here too, like, you know, I'd be up in the woods getting all this stuff done. And, and then every once in a while, I'd be like, Oh, I haven't gotten anything done in so long. And then I'd look back like three weeks ago. And I'm like, everything is different. How did this all happen? Oh, because I'm actually making some progress. So yeah, whenever I feel like I'm not making progress, I just have to, I just have to remember, just keep going, stick to my principles, keep doing what I know I should be doing. And you know, even if I'm not making any progress, even if I'm going backwards, as long as I'm pushing in the right direction, I'm going to get somewhere. That's all I have to say about this week. Wait, what else happened this week? Well, you had your kids. I had my kids, like, you had them at your house, like for like several days. Yeah, but I always have them at my house. So you mean, you mean they came to my house, like a day earlier than they usually do? Yeah. Yeah, that was cool. Yeah. Yeah, we had lots of fun actually. Good. Well, they haven't told you anything yet. I literally got bit by a snake and then that was the end of the day. And we'll get to that in a minute. Okay. So you know how I've been collecting all this styrofoam? So for anyone who doesn't know, my house is largely made out of styrofoam, the cathedral. It's a styrocrete. So styrofoam mixed with concrete. I mean, mixed with cement to make concrete. Oh, Rohr would jump down my throat if she heard me mix up cement and concrete. Cement is the glue. Concrete is the entire mixture. Anyway, so in collecting all this styrofoam, I would often get garbage bags from people full of styrofoam and it would be like three quarters styrofoam and then like some other foam or maybe just some half eaten burrito like just garbage. And that's so irritating. So I had a whole bunch of this just foam stuff. And then I had a bunch of other bags of like styrofoam like beads, which don't really stick to the cement that well, so they're not great for it. Was this the stuff that went into the chairs? Yes, it was originally for like these big bean bag chairs. So guess what I made yesterday? What? Maybe it was two days ago. No, it was yesterday. I don't know when it was. Sometime. Since Thursday. I think it was yesterday. I just made like a giant like Oreo cookie out of cloth, like pretty tough cloth. And I sewed it like seven times to make sure it gets no holes because I stuffed it with all the all the foamy. And Oreo cookie. Yeah, or like a cake. Like a hockey puck. A hockey puck. Like a like a giant hockey puck. So not like three layers of something. No, like it like a hockey puck. Like a tea biscuit. Like a hockey puck. Okay, hockey puck. It was approximately the dimensions scaled up from a hockey puck. This thing behind us. So it's like two big circles that were five feet across and then like a strip of cloth around to make like a hockey puck. It's huge. What kind of material did you use? I used like nylon. The white nylon stripy stuff? Not stripy. There's white white nylon stuff that you would like make the one you made. Heavy duty tent out of stuff like that. The one you made of Orya's dress that she won't show me. Yeah, why would she show it? Anyway, that's a whole separate thing. I'm getting taken off so many tangents right now. Anyway, I made this huge thing and then we spent like two hours stuffing it with like all those styrofoam beads and then we know all the other foam plasticky foam stuff that I had no use for. We cut that up into chunks and threw that in there. I have a video of it. Anyway, so now I have this giant beanbag chair at my house. So that's what the kids sat on for movie night. Nice. So they could all like pile on it. We could all pile on it, although somehow those three little buggers took up the entire thing. Even though it's huge, I could have just jumped in there and squeezed in, but I didn't want to get so hot. It was so hot. It's been so hot the last couple nights. But it's still it's still it's not like super duper hot. It's like comfortable as long as I'm not touching anyone. Yeah, or myself. Yeah, if I'm touching anything, I need a fan. Starfish, don't touch your skin. But it's not it's not like hot like, you know, like Florida summer hot where even if you have a fan on it just feels like it's blowing hot air at you. It's blowing once there's a fan on. I think. Yeah, this is one of the things I love about this climate. Like it's never so hot that a fan doesn't work. Yeah. So that's I also I also upgraded my zombie chopper. I made Oh, you kick the thing. So, you know, it's the it's the white boat and I refurbished it a couple weeks ago. So I refurbished it a couple weeks ago and then I drove it to town and back. And it was, you know, for a fair amount faster than my other boat. So I was like, oh, I want to start driving this boat more often. And it has four solar panels and to max out the motor that I have on it, I would like six solar panels. And I was like, well, if I can get one more solar panel on the roof, then it'll be a lot closer to to running the motor full power. So it had four solar panels lined up like this. Right. So I took like three of them. Well, I ended up lining up four like this and I still had space for one in the front. So I got five total. I couldn't couldn't fit six. So I got five total and I made it so it tilts, which makes a huge difference. Oh, so you do want it tilting? I totally want it tilting. I know you're insane. Oh, it was a different it was a different boat. So if I'm if I'm driving north south, I can aim it at the sun. So when I'm going to town, because this is always a big consideration, like if I'm like most of the long distance places I go around here are in north south. So I can leave early in the morning and if the sun comes up at seven, if my solar panels are like this, or like this and the sun's coming like this, I get basically nothing. But if I can crank them over like that, then I can get like the sun as soon as it comes up and be cruising. And then on the way home, I can get the sun like all the way till it goes goes down and get some other stuff. Should we check in with our people? Yeah, what's what's anyone talking about? Okay. Hi, guys. Hi, talkers. Why no rapiers? What do we need rapiers for? No, that was mining. Hold on. I just want to see this real quick. Best way to ask a question. Tomatoes. Thank you so much for your super chat. I should move everything heavy like an Egyptian. Oh, tomatoes. Thank you for Happy Mother's Day. You guys are awesome. Yeah, apparently it is. I found out this morning when I did my breakfast life. Oh, your journey is my pipe dream. We'll get out of the pipes or do whatever you want. I was wondering about workshop maybe this fall and winter. Oh, yeah. I didn't even get to that. So in my huge list of things I need to do, yeah. So right now my house is just, it's not overly stuffed with stuff, but it's got more stuff in it than I want because everything's on the first floor and it's supposed to be a three-floor thing, which it will be. And then I want to build a separate workshop and put all the tools there. I'm not sure when I'm going to get to that. We're in May right now. Like, yeah, I just, it's, and I want to figure out a really good spot to put it too. And I have a, I have a spot that I think I want to put it, but it is not, like it's going to need some landscaping. It is not ready at all. End of the year? I don't know. I hope so. I would love to have workshop before the end of the year. The thing is, like all this stuff, and I learned this when I first went off grid in Vermont, like all this stuff seems like it's going to take forever and it's never going to happen. And then suddenly it's like, oh, hey, it's done. Even like my house over here, the cathedral. You know, for years it was something I was thinking about and thinking, oh, well, I know I'll get to that eventually, but like, oh my gosh, this is going to take forever. And now it's there, you know? And it didn't even take years. Well, it took like a year. If you count all the landscaping and all the digging it took to get in there, and yeah, it was like two years. But like just building the house. Yeah, it was like a year. All right, let's see what else we've got in here. Yes, point, John, that you would answer so many questions that most people would not. All right, so we see we got a bunch of other visitors, Joseph, Blowmeister, Talia Rose, nice to see you. Let's see who else is here. We're looking for some questions if there are any. They just want me to start jogging. Your hard worker shut up, Stephen Alter, nice to see you. Don't worry about what other people think of how hard you work or if you don't even feel like working or if you want to work, that's totally up to you. I don't care what other people think at all, but I care what I think. I'm way harder on myself than anyone else anyway. Well, owners do seller financing with private islands. Yeah, a lot of people would. Some people do. Sure. Yeah, actually, I think somebody will do that. That's sort of like asking like, can a weight be five? Sure. How many lots? I think he's talking about the solar panels and your motor. Your motor, I think, is talking about. So Greg is asking how many watts I think on the motor of the boat. I did talk about a few different things. Okay, the motor on the Zombie Chopper, my white boat, is 1,100 watts. And I currently, with the five solar panels, I have like 1,000, a little over the 216 watts each. Although you never really get the whole thing. But you use the whole thing. It'll be like, it's like 900,000 watts. So yeah, I'm a little bit short, but it's pretty close to full power if I have a good sun. And it goes pretty fast. I mean, not like a gas motor boat or anything. Jeff Krupke wants to know, I have wanted to pour a boat barge out of AirCrete that is built around a shipping container. Do it. That's not a question. He's just telling us what he wants to do. I said, great. Yeah, if they do it. I would be, wait, wait. So the AirCrete, I don't, well, I guess probably depends how you make it. But I've had very limited AirCrete experience. But in my very limited experience, it sinks because the water goes right through it. It's like porous, you know, like it's got like bubbles, but then that they don't. So Styro-Crete. It's not really like bubbles as much as it's just kind of like, like it like water will go right through it. So it would sink. But maybe he knows how to do it in a way that will, you know, hold air. Well, that's why he also suggested Styro-Crete, so or Styro-AirCrete maybe meant to say Styro-Crete. Well, he said AirCrete, Styro-Crete. So yeah, if I was to make making something that floats, I would definitely use the Styro-Crete because like what we talked about doing some floating, floating docks. I want to, I want to do floating docks. That's another thing that's like on my list because I don't really have a super good spot to go swimming at my house yet. And I also don't want to make a really nice spot to go swimming where other people are going to drive their boats up. Like one of the things I love about my island is that from the outside, it just looks like this thing that's, there's no way in. Like I've had people come to visit and they'll drive around the entire island and I'll go stand up at the top and I'll be like, hey, and they're like, how do you get in here? And I'm like, yes. So I don't really want to make like a nice dock sticking out to go swimming. So I'm thinking about- What about something over there on those libraries? Well, I'm thinking about like a maybe a fiberglass thing with floats on the end, sort of like a long wheelbarrow but it's floating on the end and I can just take it on the land, go to the edge of the land and like kind of stuff it in some some holes or something and it would stick way out and then I can walk on it and go jump and swim and stuff and then get back out and then I can grab it and retract it back in. Right. That'd be cool. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Because right now to go swimming, I kind of have to like walk out in this mushy stuff till it's deep enough I can jump in. Stan Parsons. Okay. Service is asking what about the dragon scale roof and he's talking about what you talked about a few weeks ago. Yeah. So I want to waterproof my roof. I have ordered materials for the dragon scales for my roof. So they should be here in a month, less than a month. Oh yeah. The container ships on the 2nd of June. All right. So whenever they get here. Yeah. So before that gets here, I need to be done the spackling of the outside of my house and I'm also going to need more sand and our sand and rocks delivery guy has been a bit of a schmuck and we were not using them anymore. So I may be going to get the stuff myself. We're just going to add some more work. We might find someone else though. We'll see. We'll see how it goes. But that brings up another thing that I've been wanting to do and the more I think about all these things I need to do, the more relevant it becomes which is build the ultimate boat. I know I have so many boats but like I've learned so much on all these boats and like I'm pretty confident at this point. This would be like the 7th boat. Yeah. At this point, I feel like I could make like a boat that I won't feel like I want to build another one. And part of the thing is like the boat I'm using most of the time right now is one of the first, at least the hull of it, is one of the first boats I made when we got here. So I mean there are definitely improvements. It's just it ended up being the one that was like a really good size for a lot of different things and a really good shape and you know like I it's a catamaran and I really like that because you know it's it's got a nice deck on the front. It's kind of like a pickup truck. I can put lots of stuff in it but the hulls could definitely be a better shape and I yeah yeah there's just there's a lot of little things I would improve. Now the zombie chopper that is a pretty slick like polished finished boat. The only problem with that is it can't hold much cargo but like if I'm just like driving somewhere and I just want to get there fast just me maybe another person or me in the groceries or whatever. Oh it's great for that. So it's not like all the boats are like obsolete or anything. No they just have various uses and some you don't use as often as the others. Yeah and the you know the biggest boat the what's it called the shark slicer I'm I'm considering just like renovating that. Refitting it. Yeah refitting that to make it the boat. That's the problem is though oh it is a really cool boat but the problem is I'm gonna be like kind of chopping stuff up and putting stuff together and it's not gonna end up being like exactly what I want to do you know. I think it'd be still I still think it'd be cool to refit that one and make it into like an RV where we could have like guests like guest accommodations floating out in the bay you know when we have people here. Yeah but I don't want to leave it floating out that's the problem. No I just mean like we would put it out or bring it in but like if we needed it. Right but it's gotta be if it's gonna be in the water once I get the barnacles cleaned off you know someone has to go under there pretty regularly to make sure the barnacles. I guess I've met like short term staying not like sometimes. Right but like a week like someone's gonna have to do it a few times. Yeah maybe that's part of it. Like my boat maybe that's part of their rent. I scrub off the bottom of the boat like every day when I'm using it when I park it at my house it doesn't seem to grow any barnacles or anything but that's kind of because like when yeah when it gets really low tide it's kind of touching the bottom so I think that keeps things from growing on it. Yeah well it could be part of their room. Oh I'm not trusting someone else to do that oh my gosh can you imagine oh can you just make sure you clean off the barnacles just you know take a brush and just wipe it off you know every day then it's a piece of cake but if you wait a few days then you got a guy kind of scrape you know and then like three weeks later so how's the barnacles going oh yeah oh yeah yeah I got that I got that taking a look and it's like just covered cake in like a disaster yeah I'm not that idea okay moving on um so scale me up would like to know did you find any information or did you have any idea on the waterproofing of ancient roofs no nothing in your area yeah like like a few people sent stuff but it was all like wood roofs like nothing for like a concrete dome yeah you're welcome Chris man John Chris man John Chris man I do my best wait what was that about my boats your boats your boats are the best they are the best even though like even though I want to improve stuff like I would not want another boat mostly because like at this point the idea of stopping to get gassed is just such a revolting activity to me I couldn't do it yeah oh actually and I know I used to drive a car well truck and I would stop for gas but now it's just all right what's that somebody was asking that actually recently they were having a conversation about whether like why you wouldn't get a motor like a gasoline powered motor for like emergencies to just have and somebody else was saying well storing the gas like it eventually loses its well yeah and then also the motor like if I don't if I'm never using it like it's just going to get all crusted up yeah yeah so anyway so that answers if I was going to have something for emergency I'd probably rather have like a big battery yeah that I can put on like the the zombie chopper goes pretty fast still not as fast as a gas boat but like if I put a battery on that where I could run at full speed I could get to town in like double the amount of time a gas motor could which is still fine right like double the amount of time a gas motor could what do you mean by yeah like if they they take 40 minutes I take an hour and a half or an hour and 20 minutes whatever would you ever consider getting one of the you know pre-made electric motors that are out there well I did have one it lasted six months yeah that was a that was a free one for review yeah I mean more yeah I would brand ones that are like five thousand dollars I would consider it but I'm not gonna spend five thousand dollars on it I think it's like oh my gosh this just happened do you want to check it out I guess there's a kid dying downstairs hey guys what's going on so the question is would I would I buy an electric motor probably not because they're too expensive but if if someone wanted to send me one and like you know do a review or whatever and it was like you know a high quality thing that like it was supposed to be that I would probably be able to use then yeah um but other than that like if I'm gonna choose between spending five thousand dollars and spending like five hundred and you know spending some time and making something myself I'll just make something myself partly because then I can also do all the stuff to make sure it's gonna last a long time like I've learned a bunch of stuff about you know boat motors there's mostly about like boat motor maintenance and how to how to build them so they don't need maintenance so one thing I never want to have is moving parts under the water moving parts under the water suck other than like like a bearing um but if I'm gonna have a bearing under underwater I want it to be lubricated with seawater no seals that can break and then you know the seawater gets in there and wrecks it now it's gotta be it's gotta be able to handle the seawater already and uh but other than that like I don't yeah most of them just rely on these little rubber gaskets like five thousand dollar motor relies on like a 10 cent rubber gasket to keep it from being destroyed and I don't like that even if it lasts a really long time hold on let me let me just check on something are you guys all right down there are you coming back oh there's a situation down there have you float tested your styrocrete um okay so how much weight can the styrocrete hold I haven't I haven't done like you know a big size test or anything but like picking it up it's very obviously much lighter than the equivalent amount of water so yeah it should float fine and I feel like I don't need to do a test before making a floating dock for example like if I made a dock that was like I don't know as wide as I am tall like just a big square and you know like this thick or something I'm pretty sure I could stand on it no problem and I would be confident enough in that to just do it of course if it wasn't floaty enough I could always add more on the top but I would I would make it if it was like a foot thick it would definitely float with me and a few kids standing on it you know oh I need to ask Margaret Thatcher how the ancient waterproof the roof hydrofoil it okay the question of hydrofoils you know I just kind of uh I kind of put hydrofoils aside because it's one of those things that works really well in perfect conditions and doing life I've learned that all this there's I I want to do things that work in normal conditions so I don't want anything that needs to be in perfect conditions to function and if hydrofoils aren't in perfect condition then they're just in the way that doesn't mean at some point I will never make some but if I was gonna if I'm gonna make a hydrofoil boat it'll probably just be like a little personal transport maybe one or two people can get in it no cargo or anything and just use it once in a while to go somewhere real fast but like I'm always taking cargo places anyway just covering the panels on the zombie chopper extend their life yes so the solar panels on the zombie chopper are plastic and right now they're not covered but the boat is parked under trees so it gets a little bit of sun during the day but not very much let's see oh could I do a video with updates on all boats that I have and their condition and future plans well I just did a couple of videos on one of them and one I drive I'll try to keep that in mind have I seen the youtube channel for primitive life he just demonstrates an ancient concrete which could be replicated in your area well if I was gonna make my own concrete here which I do plan to do I would probably use shells and the way you do it with shells is the same way you do with limestone rock basically you take the shells or your limestone and heat it up in a fire and if you get it hot enough then if you throw them in water they'll disintegrate and bubble and turn into the stuff called quick lime which is basically like watery cement and then you mix that with your sand and rocks and you get concrete which I do want to do for sure I want to do all that stuff myself at some point all right I just want to make sure I didn't miss anything oh man let's scroll down so I'm way slower at this when uh Dashena's not here because she usually takes care of this stuff the electric bulldozer what is it what is it doing today it's just hanging out sitting there that's another thing on my list I have to get to I have to take it apart to get it over to my island and I don't need to take it apart to get it to my island I need to take it apart to get it off your island because it's now locked in by gardens and stuff okay Simon asks amazing work guys your videos are great how would you mill a log that's five feet wide probably chainsaw well the lumber mill I want to make is a swing blade one so that if I might have to lift it up no I couldn't even get it out of the jungle though all right I'd I'd go out there with my if I had a five foot wide log I take my chainsaw which has a 28 inch bar so it would get almost halfway through and I'd just start cutting off maybe like maybe like foot by foot pieces 12 inch by 12 inch 30 centimeter by 30 centimeter chunks because I can I can lift those and carry them to where I was going to cut them unless for some reason I actually want boards that are super wide and you know with a chain so I can cut up to 20 inches wide although that would be really pushing it pitch wise says Jamie your outlook seems when a boundary dissolution dissolution you've ignored the rules as they were set out and have even learned contempt for them my question is have you succeeded in finding a better way yeah so yes to everything there yeah so they're our society is so full of rules that say what you can't do like that's what you that's what we learn in school and by the time I was done with school all I was trying to do was forget all the limitations I that have been forcing to my head that you know all the all the crap that said you can't do this you can't do that you can't do that and the more things I've done outside of what I was told was you know possible the more I realized all those rules are crap and we're being told we can't do things so that we'll do what what some stupid people want us to do it's just a way of control well that that is how they're controlling people you know like if you predict what somebody wants if you tell them all things you don't have to predict anything you just tell them what to do and they do what you want and then you make money or get whatever you stuff like it's just that's how our society runs right now it's like they're they're people you know at the top the top of garbage and there's mosquito get right there and oh you missed it and they they spend all their time you know putting out all these messages about what you can't do and what you can do and most people go along with it and like even when I was younger I was like oh maybe I really can't do this because I'm being told but my brain is telling me I should be able to do this stuff and yeah at this point I don't even listen to what I'm what I'm told I can and can't do I just do what I think I should do and I don't like I don't even what I'm told I can't do doesn't even register it just bounces off at this point and yes at this point now I have contempt for all the all the things that we're told we can't do because it's just it's just limiting people like people could be so much more if you just not that I'm saying anyone's crap or anything but even me like I have limitations that I need to get through that don't mean even me like I'm the best in the universe or anything I'm just saying like they like people have so much more more potential than we are given credit for or than we give our ourselves credit for like there's so much more that we could do and we could be so much more interesting and that's the thing I really don't understand about you know the slave drivers you know the man telling people to all be the same and all this stuff it's it just creates a very boring world like it must be really boring people who are who want that world the world could be so much more interesting if people could just just get past all those limitations and just do what they think yeah do yeah um so I just want to do a quick shout out about how to send things to us should you wish to do that send an email to the adventure builder movie at gmail.com and we can work out those details yeah so this also in the description is jamie's amazon wishlist which does also have the way to send stuff to us but that's only if you're sending it via amazon because it's a different method if it's not being sent through amazon directly so in the description you can find all the ways to help support jamie and our family yeah so that was the question was like what's the process for sending you stuff I'm sure you don't just want unsolicited stuff showing up but if it's unsolicited stuff it won't show up it won't show up because we have to get it shipped into this country and like we have like it just won't make it here if we don't like send the receipt it's a kind of complicated process but if you are that complicated but yeah it's I don't think it's really super like relevant to go through the whole process of what it is but if there is something that you would like to send to us please send us an email and we can get you in the right direction yeah yeah yeah yeah okay um question well she's gone show up your mad juggling skills I need some stuff to juggle no I'm here my juggling skills are not that great chainless e-bike solutions if so is this something you could build for your boat no I have not I have currently chainless propulsion thing I have a big gear Mr Landfill says could you stand on your roof I'm pretty sure I could stand on my roof because I I did the calculation like I figured out how much one of those squares ends up weighing once it's spackled and I weigh the same as maybe like two of those squares so yeah I mean I wouldn't be that much of a I wouldn't make that much of a difference still I would be nervous because it's not that thick but I was like that you know at the concrete dome that was over the the spring in in Vermont which was like that thick yeah about that thick and uh yeah the first time I got in it I was like but then after I'd been on it a few times you know I would just climb up there no problem and a huge tree landed on it once and just bounced right off I couldn't believe it um stand person's tree service on snow can you invent machines about trash plastic to make a practical to tool canoe or mini dinghy that's that's something that I've been thinking about it's kind of in the works because yeah plastic is what do you know that I would talk to there's a plastic making company think not plastic making but they they go around this area specifically and they are raising funds to make these machines that locals can use to grind up the plastic and then turn it into sheets and she said they started out with panini makers panini makers just yeah like they started out by just putting the plastic on well I do I do have a toaster oven that I've been thinking about making into a plastic melter and then just kind of compressing stuff in there but but I would probably the first thing I would probably do is just make blocks and machine them wait what's non-duality I don't have you ever heard of non-duality does anyone want to explain what non-duality is um okay so while we're waiting for that let's see if we can catch up with our the bulldozer build was amazing I love that bulldozer man thanks for being new pair sticker the super stickers are funny um okay mosquito with Jamie's squirrel except no it kind of is my squirrel isn't it mosquitoes are fast um if you had to do it over would you buy acres on an island with 5000 residents or buy an island thinking about doing both to ease into my own island oh go straight to what you want to do don't yeah like yeah if you do something that's oh if you do something that's halfway to what you really want to do you're gonna end up like wasting a lot of time and resources because like everything you do you're gonna be like oh well I mean this is cool but it's not really what I want to do just go for what you really want to do it's going to be harder at the beginning because it's going to be scary because you're gonna be like I don't know what I'm doing I'm on an island by myself there's no one to help me but then you learn stuff you learn stuff fast when you do it that way um Roy man what is wrong with this kid today because he just got back and he hasn't been here for a couple days so he's a little overwhelmed emotionally uh Roy man says Jamie do you think consciousness continues after death or when to die that's it I don't know I I don't know I stopped asking that kind of stuff I'm just like you know what's gonna happen it's gonna happen and it's whatever it is I'll I'll take care of it take care of business wherever whatever happens I just want to remind you guys when you're asking questions please make sure you write the word question in front of it or two question marks because it makes it easier for us to find them when we're scrolling through the comments uh so continue do you want me to read that first or do you want me to write your thought about so one one theory that I sometimes entertain in my head is that whenever you die whatever you think's hap whatever you think's gonna happen is what happens and that's probably not the case but it could be so I sometimes you know if I'm sitting around just twiddling my thumbs I'll think about that like what what would I want to happen yeah maybe I should just in case that is the case maybe I should start thinking that that something really cool is gonna happen when I die like lots of ladies don't don't like some people have like 40 virgins are gonna greet you and like massage your shoulders and do I anyway okay so zk4 and responded with what non-duality was can I read it oh yeah I can read watch this no you can't no non non non duality basically says we need unconditional love aka just provide oh I don't want unconditional love oh no I don't like that okay I think they're okay basically says we need unconditional shush unconditional love aka just provide for the basic needs of people so people don't have to be wage slaves I don't think no that's that's just saying you are either this or that and anytime you're given a binary decision my instant reaction is well what about the other infinite number of things that could happen your only two choice it's not that your only two choices are basically you're a wage slave or you get everything done for you or all your basics done for you the way I think it should work which is the way everything has worked like through all of history is you you work for things and then you earn them now the problem is that today that's been all distilled down to money and if the only way you're providing for yourself is through money then you're then you're the wage slave you're the slave to whoever controls the money when this is one of the the reasons I you know moved out of the system and now I live on an island in the middle of nowhere which is like the best place to be because now if I now I do all these things I have nothing to do with money like I plant food and when I get the food it's because I did the work I build a boat and the boat I get depends on what what I directly did to make the boat so yeah I don't I don't agree with being a wage slave and I don't think you should get anything done for you that you don't earn for yourself I think both of these so on that aspect do you think that okay let's say I'm really good at making soda and you're really good at drinking soda making something else that I could really use but I'm not very good at doing it do you think that like bartering is an acceptable form of doing something like to earn something do you understand are you saying specifically without money yeah like money or no money doesn't doesn't matter yeah but I mean just earning like earning your thing or like making your thing like does that yeah whatever you're doing yeah counts so like I could make you soda and say hey could you make me a cool garden potting area and you'd be like yeah dude that's cool like yes like that counts totally fine okay just wondering so some of your lady followers would like what color your lady followers normally show very well yeah the colors you can see them a little bit they're kind of green who's asking about my well this focus is really well well it really does your eyes are showing I'm super green all right back it up back it up what can you see the green I can see the green look up at the circle I know but I can't see my I know I know I'm looking okay back up they're they're greenish they're greenish question Jamie I made the mosquito job with UV LEDs but it didn't catch anything could you make a video about how to work wait there was another part of that non-duality question I think might have been okay non non-duality is when you did a bad job reading last time I'm gonna read this time non-duality is when there is no good versus evil or self versus other we all just viewed as one with each other with nature with the universe I think this is kind of a narrow view of of the world like I think I think it is important to see like to see that we're all connected right however there is also good and bad like I don't think this is another one of those things where it's a binary question and it's like is it this or this and it's neither it's it's both and you know so yes you I think it's important to realize that whatever you are doing to the world is happening to you too because you're in the world if you're crapping in the world you're you're in that world you're getting crapped on and if you're doing good things for the world around you you end up being in a better world so it's important to realize that you know we are all connected but then it's also important to realize you know good versus bad you know and maybe you know maybe the the idea of good and evil is only is only relevant in certain contexts but then you just have to look at it in the context of okay I'm a biological thing so anything that kills biological stuff I'm going to consider that bad anything that's supportive of my type of life I'll consider that good but then you know if I meet some creatures who are totally different than me I'm not going to just go slaughter them all because it's good for me in some way you know like you know all this stuff is just really common sense like consider you know everything around you think about the world as if as if it is part of you like you're part of it so you crap on the world you're crapping on yourself and he further says it also means living a life to do what you want to do not what you have to do to survive oh I think I think this is another what if those ideas are kind of the same they should be the same I mean yeah the thing is like if you living a life where you don't have to do anything to serve a problem that a lot of people have today where they they have no ability to take care of themselves and that's how a lot of people are losing their freedom because they can't take care of themselves they have no idea how to do it because they've never learned how to take care of themselves so you know the man takes care of people but that means you're the slave so if you only focus on what you want to do like luxury things then you end up being a slave so it's it's really important to to like enjoy doing the things you need to do to survive like I don't understand like that should be an enjoyable thing like it's it's part of the adventure you know okay so another question Mike's tiny shed of dream says did you hear about the world economic forums great reset no no there's I wouldn't be surprised of anything that's going on with all these lockdowns and ridiculous stuff going on like there's just the whole system you know it's been just getting worse and worse and more ridiculous through my entire life the whole time I've been paying attention so would you ever consider going back to the US if somebody made an adventure builders headquarter out of your old dome no okay um I mean there would have to be a spaceship involved how far is your nearest shop do you have a few miles like three miles or so uh question have you that's a small shop yeah well there's one like well yeah there's like half a mile away I could get rice like right over there or like the guy has gas and a couple things over there but like yeah like a decent like a corner store kind of shop is like three miles away yeah like I would say survival food we could get right over there yeah we needed to because he has flour and stuff like that beans yeah if we had no boat and I had to like swim yeah we could we could get enough stuff right over there to survive like within within you know swimming distance um question for Jamie have you developed a garden plan for your food production I'm developing a garden plan yeah you have a pretty cool thing going on over there yeah well so far I'm to a large degree I'm just kind of planting stuff in a lot of different places and seeing what works and then trying different kind of fertilizery things like compost now I'm not buying any fertilizer but like you know different things that I can do to the soil to see what what works in different places and uh yeah some stuff is growing pretty well right in front of my house I have tons of beans and I have some popcorn growing so excited about the popcorn and then yeah some some fruit trees avocado trees and stuff like that going and I'm I'm getting I'm getting some decent results tomatoes you're awesome thank you he got me an angle grinder and cut-off wheel on amazon whoa was that that's for you whoa thanks tomato come on man I'm just kidding wait Jamie has like eight angle grinder he has like one for all of his appendages this person's like did I have a falling out with Ellen seriously are you trying to poke stuff no Ellen is awesome I love Ellen yeah I've had a talk to her I've been I've been talking to her a year ago maybe I don't know it's around the time I had Eric I think question what other star okay projects have you got I love your hair today Jamie you must also have a man hairdo well look at my man hairdo oh yeah okay oh Ellen's is high shut up no way that's not Ellen we need you to tell us something that only Ellen would know she can't write it here though no she would have to say something in code well anyway yeah tell us the Ellen code Ellen is amazing and I love her actually it's funny I swear I spoke to her like when I was yeah I just got I just had Eric okay what other star okay projects have you got I'm still stuck on I love your hair today Jamie I'm just gonna pretend that's for real okay so what other styrocrete projects do I do I have planned well the one that I'm kind of most interested in right now is domes like making some like you know like domes some igloos some big igloos out of the styrocrete because I feel like you know after building my my cathedral I've got the technique down pretty good with the styrocrete pieces and then putting some like some plastic mesh over that and then spackling over it comes out really good okay Tom Lindgren says to Shayna Lindgren Lindgren sorry I don't think I always see two easers in my question I'm just gonna say I'll send you a message Tom so anonymous says question would you ever get dreads I don't think you could grow your hair no that's the one where it's like all kind of like gnarled up hair right years that would take you to get your hair long enough dude my hair grows fast I cut it like every other day really no no it doesn't go pretty fast though but no I don't I don't want good wouldn't it be so hot on your head yeah yeah um like when I get long hair I always want to go like this like to just kind of like spread it out so the like to just kind of like spread it out so the air can get through Andrew wants to know for growing sugarcane plantains and breadfruit well fruit well yes to the plantains and bread I have sugarcane growing on the farm but I haven't checked on it a while yes to the plantains and red I have sugarcane growing on the farm but I haven't checked on it a while yeah plantains yes John and breadfruit our breadfruit's not doing great I need to be moved because I hate where it is it absolutely we did get some bread fruits a while ago I might be getting some more from this other lady anyway um John Chrisman has actually asked this twice I just forgot uh he wants to know are there land taxes on your islands and so what is the cost no um John Chrisman which I'm happy about send me an email at the adventure builder movie no to further answer the rest of his questions if he has any other questions about island purchasing etc oh um so apparently yeah if your life says he saw cut off um question new island tour and how many acres that would be cool though if they turned into a while new island tour and how many acres wait what how many acres is your island how is that what yeah that's what he's asking and then he was asking if there's a new island tour but you have not done but how big is my island three quarters acre on the just the one of them I'm pretty sure well I think it's bigger I think it's like an acre on the one chunk but then the other I okay my island is like two two islands yeah because I looked at the survey and it didn't include this part maybe it's new or something because like the survey is kind of old it doesn't include the mangroves and the mangroves I think held in some dirt and there's some I don't know yeah it is an old survey anyway it's probably like an acre and a half currently yes all right my son is actually behind the brown table hiding I was just yeah since unless he's still there why did you put wheels why did you put wheels on the solar dozer instead of legs mostly because I wanted to roll the ground as you stomped along and I did think about it actually but you know I didn't want to get that involved in a project at the time but I also you know the point of a bulldozer is to flatten things out so yeah I wanted it to stay nice and flat and then wheels would roll on the nice and flat so I would stay flat um so what do you think about that I don't know what that even means you know in a rickshaw is it's like a way to run around and do you Jamie oh you have a wishlist Jamie posted in the video it yeah the wishlist should be dude my wishlist is not there it is oh my god oh my gosh okay I'm just gonna check oh just stay it's fine I can't believe just posting her wishlist on my video is this like the time the police came by and gave you cookies and you didn't didn't tell me it's my master plan you just ate them all matter of fact uh this this is actually on my channel right now I got monetized like three months ago nice and so all this money is all right what's all this money all right all right um have you ever successfully pranked me you don't do pranks you're not into jokes is she hates when I do pranks I don't hate it oh you want me to get the video out of you being involved in them yeah at the end person you don't like you don't like being involved at all no that's not your way like being involved when you can just tell me exactly what needs to be done and I understand it clearly I don't like to be the pranked person yeah I don't like surprises either and really does rickshaw well then if it has a motor then it's not a rickshaw I would drag a rickshaw around dude if you bring a rickshaw she wants to know about your diet she left a comment in your thing in your one of your videos like yesterday or the day before well let me just finish this guy if someone excited the lady has showed up okay sorry if someone brings a rickshaw and is driving the rickshaw around I will totally say get in your rickshaw I'll drive you around okay okay moving on wondering what your diet looks like what your diet looks like what foods you buy and what food you catch grow harvest yourself bulk items etc okay you're not answering this no this is your question this is not my question I don't answer questions well lately and this changes from time to time but lately I've been eating like a coconut every day and usually I'll go outside find a coconut shred it up eat a chunk of it with some oats and raisins and peanuts and if I have some bananas or something but I haven't had any in a while you know I'll make some some cereal and maybe I'll have some corn flakes on top of that so basically coconutty cereal oats and stuff and then I'll take the rest of the shredded coconut mix it with some flour and you know yeast and salt and water and make a blob of bread dough and my favorite bread dough is the one that gets cooked the next day because then it starts you know kind of fermenting a little and getting a sour doughy it's supposed to be good for you and I like it makes me feel better than just eating flour I eat more flour than I would like because it's cheap and convenient so the the day old bread dough you know it's partly digested flour so that's really if you don't be actually cheaper than flour at this point dude I love y'all piece so much more anyway that's that's what I've been doing for breakfast mostly lately and then lunch you know when I'm at my house by myself a lot of times I skip lunch because it's I feel like convenience like am I gonna am I gonna stop and cook when it's just for me like if someone else is at my house when the kids are over obviously I cook lots of stuff but when I'm there by myself I'm just like I cook once on Friday when the kids leave I cook on Friday so what's the interruption rate right so anyway and then dinner I I don't know what do I eat for dinner beans chili oh yeah the last week I made a huge pot of chili like a week ago I just finished it and it was basically beans and tomato paste just and then every day I would add more stuff to it like I put some peppers in and some garlic and just oh a bunch of patuk leaves katuk is like kind of like the spinachy stuff and I actually showed that in my good morning let's make breakfast video this morning yeah I eat a lot of tomato sauce stuff like all you know I like tomato sauce I know and then I look yeah I don't feel like I've been eating the best but I think you could probably but not too bad no I do okay that's like kind of the basic stuff but what do what do what else do I eat for dinner I can't remember what I eat for dinner because I just had it an entire week of chili every day but um eggs sometimes potatoes I haven't gotten eggs from you for a while oh yeah but if I yeah if I if I have yum pee or um which is like a potato-y thing there's a bunch of different potato-y things so I'm just gonna call them potato-y things like I like potato-y things and I'll usually either boil them well I usually boil them and then sometimes mash them or sometimes just eat them the way they are macaroni and cheese okay the macaroni and cheese happens every weekend because Aurora every every like every Saturday I say to Aurora what do you want to eat for dinner she's like macaroni and cheese but I don't just make plain old macaroni and cheese I use bread dough that I've made with coconut in it so there's lots of coconut in it and then I you know break off little bits and put that in the boiling water for the noodles and then mix that with you know the cheese powder stuff so it's it's much more nutritious than just you know box of macaroni and cheese but then I also eat like stuff just around my yard like there's cocoa plums a lot of the time um there's this stuff called katuk which is like spinach that I'll just eat you know as I'm walking past all right or I'll put in things this is relating to food can you catch shrimp in the area now I've not been I've not been catching fish enough I need to start doing that again how's it how's the trap doing is there anything in it yesterday it was like three tiny fish and like four crabs I caught a snake so yeah I guess this is one of the this is one of the reasons I feel like I need another person you know like I feel like I'm juggling so much stuff like I feel like the trap needs to be out further by the thing I need someone to sit on my boat and throw a fishing line out while I'm driving which I used to do more often but now it's like I'm yeah I don't know I just need to start doing it again just start dragging a line whenever I'm driving between here in my house or to the store or whatever um I have thought about building a submarine yes definitely have you thought about building a submarine um somebody wants to know how about animal protein will you get that once a week on Wednesday yeah every Wednesday well every Wednesday the vegetable boat comes and we get chicken and vegetables every Wednesday the vegetable boat comes and we get chicken and vegetables and uh yeah for a while I was getting green peppers and tomatoes every week and I was like I didn't know what else to ask for so I was like just give me some green peppers and tomatoes and then like a month of that went by and I was like I don't want green peppers and tomatoes so last week I said get me a cabbage and some carrots yeah how'd that go that was great yeah I uh cut it up into little slices like little little strings and put some vinegar and some oil and some salt yeah and some mustard mix it all up and oh it's delicious so you want to keep meat production source that we're working on okay and also whenever I go to town I usually buy hamburger like a bunch of hamburger or something like that we have to get hot dogs and something that when we go to the to the local store yeah yeah which isn't that often but once in a while yeah um but yeah on the on the meat stuff I need to start fishing more again but you have chickens and you have chickens and they're just they're lazy they don't they I think it was the rain actually I've discovered that I think they just refuse to lay when it's raining well the other thing is like I almost never get eggs from you because like you eat the eggs and then like four kids will eat the eggs and then by the time that's done there's no eggs well now there will be because I have 21 birds good well once once in a while I get a couple eggs from the shenan well when they are yeah well if you if you get more I will totally take them that'll be great I always do when they're in production I think we just had some shitty weather and they anyway um do you eat any pizza oh I love pizza can you harvest honey so one of them one of my favorite ways to make pizza is oh this is what I what I do with yeah before the chili happened for a whole week I would sometimes make like get plantains or any kind of potato product plantains are kind of like potatoes you know boil them mash it up and make you know put that in the bottom of the pan and put tomato sauce on top of that and then oh if I have some cheese I'll put that on which I almost never do what's wrong with him could you get some peanuts for him please no one got him no I did I had gave him a whole cup of them but if somehow Jamie needs a personal assistant yeah he does any I need like I need a yeah um I was thinking about making a robot actually have you he says what have you thought about making a submarine what oh you want details details dude come on give us the details I'm not I'm not really at the point where they're details yet it's just more like boy oh I should get to the submarine but probably fiberglass outer outer hall do you want to answer popcorn powers is there edible seaweed in the area and yes I think it's basically the answer but we'd have to set up ropes and stuff for that oh sorry oh edible seaweed in our area well yeah I don't know anything about the seaweed we need to learn some seaweed stuff yeah I need I need some seaweed from what I read this is why I also need a personal assistant who can be like knowledgeable about seaweed and like farming or stuff so what I've read about it in this area is that you put a rope out that's you know from one floating thing to another and then you have ropes that go down to the bottom and it will grow up I have seen people doing that that's the edible and that's the edible how do you know if it's the edible one like what if the non-edible one grows on it I wouldn't trust it so like I need to know what the edible one looks like yeah before I go eating it yes yeah I just don't I just don't have enough information for but it is in the the my like it's in oh peanut butter yeah I so I was saying you know I make I make I make a lot of bread which is really coconut it's like 50 coconut when I make the bread and then yeah I I put peanut butter on it and I grind my own peanut butter because I hate peanut butter with sugar in it I hate how they put sugar in everything drives me nuts could you outline your plans for the next two months and what are you planning ideally to have completed come on mr. schedule oh I can't schedule like that but um well I want to I want to finish backling the house and I just got my my little white boat you know upgraded so I should be able to zoom to town and back faster I say zoom but it's you know zoom in for a little solar panel load anyway and so once I get the house spackled I want to get some more food growing and we're working on getting some other plants from from some people trading some plants and stuff and then when the materials get here I want to do the roof so I guess I guess the thing I really want to get done like the major thing I want to get done next is waterproof my house like totally like zero drips you know anything yeah and the doing the spackling the walls has actually helped a lot and I'm not even done the spackling but uh the styrocreas at least the way I make it is porous so water could you know get through the spackling the outside the water water doesn't come through and see you guys in a few minutes yeah so water waterproofing making the making the super long-term roof do you have an herb garden or okay I do have some garlic planted it's not planted in a special thing or anything it's just out in front of my house it seems to be growing though so I don't know would you say you are a workaholic I mean I have stuff I want to do some people might think I'm a workaholic but yeah like I figure if I'm enjoying it then yeah it's not really work someone someone had some quote about work and play not being any different to to certain people well yeah for kids it's the same thing yeah you know because they play to learn so yeah like I'm I'm in this I'm playing this video game in real life and it's it's amazing yeah this is me it's always like going smoothly or anything that's part of the game you know I'm I'm enjoying it all right so if there's any questions that we haven't gotten to you feel free to post them again so the answer them uh but I think we're gonna sign off in a few minutes and Paul Vasquez was saying that we need to look into seaweed because you can eat it a bunch eat it and a bunch of products that are made in sold every day are containing some extract from the seaweed and you can also make some fuel from it I don't know about this making fuel I have to look into that is that is that going to be practical I don't know yeah I don't know all right so what do you think I don't know what are the three other questions I think that's it or should I just talk about nothing oh everyone's done with questions I think we're done with questions well maybe I don't need to do this next week because I've run out of things to say oh there is one question just popped up you have mentioned in other videos that you hate having to purchase fuel have you considered making your own biodiesel production I guess I've thought about it but I don't I kind of like electric motors because they're so simple you know combustion engine yeah like basically nothing like combustion engine needs so much stuff yeah I learned that from our neighbor who is constantly having problems with us yeah and I remember with cars you had to get them you know if I was gonna make if I was gonna do an engine that uses fuel I'll probably make a steam engine which I think I will do at some point okay so you my parents I think you burn anything in it my parents just got an electric vehicle oh yeah I know that was weird they told me about it does that have a solar panel on it I mean I don't think so it's like a something nice on leaf I think or I think what is what is project Hail Mary are you sick of me recommending project Hail Mary yet I don't know what that what's project Hail Mary I have no idea um it's called it's a labor of love that's what it is called when you make your living doing what you love to do yeah um so hey there I've been watching for super long time makes me happy to see your lifestyle leading to positive and creative areas this guy says seaweed is a good fertilizer oh yeah oh yeah I was gonna tell you about the rain wash the salt out for two weeks first there's also a Korean method that I was telling you about the other day where they were saying there's a special mixture of like you scoop ocean water from the bottom to get the stuff or whatever and then you do like a dilution of like 30 to one or whatever when your trees have fruited and it helps the fruit to like be better or something so basically the bottom of the ocean muck I don't know yeah and something because that's where the minerals are apparently anyway it's in the new gardening group I'm part of question are you guys gonna have more children um like am I gonna have more children yeah are you gonna have more children I don't know I love that more children are you gonna have more children ask me in like six months because yeah it's been a rough couple days right now and I'm thinking no I haven't slept in like six days I want my kids to have like a whole army of siblings that can that'll watch out for each other um I think we somehow missed something we're miss oh there it is oh tomatoes making sure we post um Jamie's wish list which I don't know how I did that but I'll have to look it up I'm still confused as to how it's a different wish list um question steam engine powered paddle wheel boat yeah man are you going to open a fishing charter on the shark the shark fin the shark slicer um I don't know the problem is like hi I don't know I guess I could do it it moves uh I'd be so weather dependent as part of the problem have a milk milk stash you have a milk stash yeah you're like just give me the milk please mama yeah can you um list that up or over or oh yeah whoa I know there are Dutch sea dikes made out of seaweed because those weeds don't rot under certain certain circumstances you know that's the kind of like stuff I would love to learn like there's all this kind of old knowledge that's that's been lost yeah all right so I'll make sure and update the description with the wish list which I am so confused oh I know why it's not in this description because I have to manually put it in it should be in any of these descriptions of his other videos that have most recently put up however if it's not I will I will double check them once we get off of the live stream today this guy has eight siblings and it's pretty cool well yeah we each have four and then these kids have six seeds basically oh you mean in the future you hope they'll have no you have seven kids total oh yeah each of them has like six oh six siblings yeah but that only counts if they move here I know it's true so question do you notice the tidal rising global warming the water level um I don't know do we notice that I mean I'm aware of it like there's uh I'm very aware of where my where the high tide mark is on my land and you know there's a fairly significant area that's dry 99% of the time that I would like to put a little more dirt on so it would always stay dry because you know if if the water comes in there once every few weeks it's gonna kill any any plants I try to put there or you know if I try to build anything I can't build anything there anything how big can you make a boat before it starts getting noticed um I mean anything you make my all my all my boats get noticed yeah like even my boat gets noticed yeah it's like the smallest it's like driving a parade float around everyone's like yeah and like people will stop but it hasn't been a problem because no one like wants to like you know cite me for regulations or anything like the police will come by and be like cool boat man except in Spanish and whenever whenever I'm driving my paddle boat around I always see people in other boats going like this yeah that's the universal hey look at the paddle boat sign um so somebody else wants to know has it been getting hotter every year since you guys moved there due to global warming no not not I would say our temperature has been I mean the thing is global warming is like fractions of a degree overall yeah but yeah and supposedly you know in certain places that the temperature would change more but yeah nothing nothing significant here it's not here it's pretty comfortable all the time uh do you you do some sketchy stuff when building what's the worst injury you've gotten in Panama so far what's the worst injury oh your toenail no I lost a toenail that's not a big deal well I was just saying it's not like it was a big deal but I would say maybe that was like the worst yeah well half the reason I lost the toenail is like I smashed my toenail and it was like all purple and then like about 250 times the kids stepped on it's like once there's once there's a swollen toe it's like the kids are just like oh my gosh I gotta I gotta step right there as hard as I can and I'd be trying to hide it like under myself and somehow they would just keep stepping on it but yeah what's the worst injury I've got I mean honestly I don't think you really had anything worse than that like injury yeah and we got hit on the head like once maybe it looks uh I walked right into the concrete like doorway because it was low and I was wearing my hat so I couldn't see right I did that oh man I did that to that rosy but I was I mean I myself minor whiplash but I was all right and maybe the scratch you had on your like rib area no I haven't really had anything significant yeah um question do bull sharks and have at the waters around your head nope have you considered making a huge a huge fairy no I don't know I well I thought about not a fairy like I don't I don't know what I would do with the fairy like where am I going to fairy people yeah but like I thought about either a type of boat or is it just the thing that it does well I think it's what it does it ferries people back and forth so like your boat could be a fairy right now yeah for taking but I I have thought about making or acquiring somewhere between somehow getting a big boat you know sort of as an emergency bug out vehicle you know just in case who knows yeah like it would be kind of nice to have like some big boat that could bigger than the biggest boat you have right now yeah okay I'll know that one would be kind of all right so like a boat that I could within a few hours equip to like go and leave very pretty wow yeah Zavara did you want to say hi short oh oh she painted your toenails um is your house well concealed a hidden needle in the jungle it is pretty well concealed not many people know about it and like I was saying earlier people have tried to come visit and not known how to get into my island make sure you guys are adding question to the beginning of your questions please not just at the end uh what's the most interesting thing you found on your land well there was a a pair of old brass clocks at least I'm pretty sure there were clocks but like all the wood parts were gone everything all that was left was brass gears that was pretty cool nothing yet it's just it's in the collection of stuff to do something collection collection of parts um are there lobsters in your in the area there are lobsters but not many because people have been overfishing for years because all the tourists you know once you have tourists so oh if I had pirate treasure oh man I've I've done a significant amount of digging and not found any pirate treasure how far do you have to travel do you travel to collect fresh water from the river I think you means on your farm island um that's not very far yeah it's a few minutes right but everything distance was it's like I don't feel like drawing a freaking map but a few minutes in my my petal boat I don't know five minutes um and then like a 10 minute walk that's what I was talking about with the walk part maybe a five minute walk I don't know it's like a quarter mile about yeah um you know through the jungle have you looked at the internal gear hubs with a belt drive instead of chain um well I don't really want to do belt drive because belts get old and yeah like I would rather do gears I like gears more because just fewer moving parts and uh you know nothing not not relying on some rubbery thing that's not gonna disintegrate yeah because like I don't know maybe there are belts that don't disintegrate but have you seen how easy it is to boil water with a Fresno lens and sunlight I have done that I wish my friend I wish my lens got here it's one of the things that didn't make it to here any plans for wind power or windmill projects yes but not not any short term because it's like well I mean I could articulate what I've been dreaming about yeah so so my island is like a bigger island than a littler island and the littler island kind of faces a direction that gets a lot of wind I would love to build like you know the Dutch windmill the big oh yeah the big one yeah when like the and then have that running like a lumber mill or just make that a workshop and have the the wind be able to you know go to a whole bunch of different things like have have one crankshaft coming down from the thing and then go across and it would go right across the ceiling of the building you know like you see this in old style factories and then off that main crankshaft there would be spots where you can attach belts like pulleys to run various different machines oh that would be amazing we have mahogany trees yes we have lots of them we found out that one of the most common types of wood here mahogany other well it's type of we've been told what was it red red mayo yeah yeah people yeah people around here call it mayo rojo so red mayo but it's mahogany and there's a black one too are there any artesian flowing wells or sea notes is it sea notes i'm gonna presume it's an artesian well i don't know what a sea note is i don't either i mean it's a hundred bucks but um are there any artesian wells flowing around here and not that i know of but they're like there are streams on like my one piece of land has a stream running through it that always runs what's the hardest item for you guys to get that you may regularly need what are we pizza pizza ingredients like Taco Bell what are we what are we well maybe now it's sand and rocks because we lost our sand and rocks guy because he was being super sketchy um but i mean that's not hard we get there are tons of people i mean i guess the question is kind of i can just go do it anyway because like i feel like if we regularly needed it's not hard for us to get it yeah whatever we can't get we just get something else to do the thing yeah i'm trying to think of what we regularly need that's hard to get right um i mean i want to uh i want to build an aluminium aluminum boat you know when i get to that point and that's going to be a bit of a pain getting the sheets of metal yeah oh you know actually the thing i think the thing that's kind of hard to get is like plants plants well it's not that hard it just means you have to socialize well there's certain kinds of plants like figs apparently like you know we'll potentially grow here but trying to get the thing yeah without going to a city that has a nursery right yeah it's a little difficult yeah and then yeah i think that is a lot just because of the way our society works where people are like i'm not giving you stuff right like you have to trade but i will say that yeah you started doing that for that recently and i got a bunch of really cool responses and i got to know the people a little better and they were like oh we have stuff we can give you like hey we'll trade for star for your whatever so yeah that's cool so what do you want wait there was a question there that oh did i miss something oh can you build a water wheel generator to get power electricity from the river oh yes definitely is that the ram pump thing no that's not that's not to make electricity that's just to pump the water up but i would do want to do that yeah but um the water wheel generator the thing is i'm we're in a tropical environment there's so much sun here the solar panels are amazing but i i do kind of want to at some point make some other things yeah i think it'd be cool to have that because then we could have like a house thing out in the middle yeah i want to i want to yeah i want to build like a like a like a bunker out by the river and that could be its electricity yeah which would be great because it would be 24 hour electricity um question how do you get the cheese for pizza oh well i go to town which is like a few hours away in my solar pedal boat and then i buy the cheese and i put it in a styrofoam thing and get it home this kid is hilarious question can you give a cryptic clue about what shady stuff the sand guy did oh it's just every time he shows up he's like he's got smaller and smaller amounts and wants more more money yeah and at some point i was just like no dude no more forget it yeah and like we negotiate so we negotiated a price per bucket for this sand and rocks and like just every time he wants to he wants his short meat like more and more and the last time and it's because you weren't here he unloaded it in a really irritating spot like he unloaded a bunch of sand on top of a bunch of rocks and sand and the rocks and sand i can use for for concrete and the sand i'll use for mortar so i like them separate and i had two separate areas the guy knows there's two separate areas i had the one pile here there was a huge space for the other thing but he just piled it on top of the opposite thing oh my gosh and yeah it went out and he thought well if i pile it on top of that other stuff it'll look like more but it was terrible yeah i wasn't fooled apparently and i was just so irritated i was like okay no more from this guy yeah and the stupid thing is like i don't understand why people do this like like i am this i don't know how how often this guy gets jobs but i know that i'm a significant part of his income yeah every couple months he'll ask us if well like every month he'll bring stuff and you know he has a pretty low low overhead operation going on he doesn't need a lot of money but like every maybe like once a month or so like on average he would he would bring a boatload of rocks sand or rocks and sand whatever and yeah it's just i don't understand how he just takes that for granted to the point where i'm like no more forget it and yeah i mean the way the way i think is like if you have someone who is your reliable customer and you know things are like you gotta take care of them or they're not good you can't expect someone to take care of you without taking care of them but i also understand that's how most of the world works like take what take as much as you can give as little and that's what people do which makes no sense which goes back to this duality thing the guy was talking about you know round about a way i was saying you have to think about the world as as if it's part of you like if you crap on the world you're crapping on yourself you could also just think about it like karma you know everything comes back to you eventually in some way so you know the big hill on your island right which big hill the one behind my house yeah did you ever consider building a hobbit whole style house in it i did actually even now so there's my house and then behind my house is wait i'll do it this way there's my house and then behind my house is a concrete like retaining wall and behind that is all dirt i've considered cutting a hole and just digging into the hill but i feel like it's gonna open a can of worms like it's gonna be cool but i mean you could i'll i'll do that if i get done all the things i need to do maybe like that comes after submarine but i was saying it's you could always do something like that on the farm property yeah well i think if i'm gonna do like a hobbit house i would build the house and just throw dirt on it would be way easier than digging a hole into the side of the hill would you dig out some and have like a little well if there's if there's like a hill maybe dig out one side of the hill and throw the dirt over here then build the house like right up against the dirt and then take the dirt and put it back on like yeah i think that'd be cool do you have to replace anodes on your boats often no anodes are something you put on a metal boat i don't have any metal boats so you put you put anodes on a metal boat which is like like if you have a steel boat i think you can put a chunk of zinc onto the outside and then the zinc will get used up by the by the seawater instead of rusting the steel but once the zinc gets used up your boat will start rusting unless you get another anode on there but i have all fiberglass so it it doesn't need that oh here apparently is the answer highest like watching ratio i've ever seen people love you guys oh no um there is a hardwood walnut in belize i'm betting the same tree live around there also wait wait walnut like walnuts can we get walnuts out of it i would love to grow walnuts yeah i know that would be awesome will you endlessly expand your ownership or do you see a point at which you will consolidate and maintain what you have built and live without expanding further or even reduce your stewardship well i haven't like a few years ago i started telling people i don't want any more land i have enough land and like at this point i think i have enough land for all of our kids to have a place presuming they want it and that's i want to get that island over there by the other island the one in between susanna oh yeah yeah across from it that little little island that's like right over there yeah yeah anyway yeah i don't i don't want any more land oh thanks tomatoes cute little photobomb photobomb she totally did that um okay let's see um question who is your favorite science fiction author and favorite book that you've listened to because you don't read i don't know i don't know you were listening to a science fiction book recently it's really like uh arthur panhand oil now it's talking about the lost world yeah but i listened to a bunch of his other ones yeah not as good some of his stuff's not that good yeah yeah the lost world was my favorite one by far but i don't know i i i guess i spend most of my time doing stuff and then not reading yeah i watch you did like editor's game when i read it too yeah i actually like that movie too i understand why it didn't do well because there was some uh pr issue with the with the writer he caught some problems for the movie but i thought the movie was pretty good our superficial and materialistic people banned from visiting the island they're not banned but it depends on their behavior if they come yeah superficial and materialistic people generally oh god they're so impossible to deal with oh it's not a little dude it's actually our daughter the youngest one is the daughter and she's currently swinging and being a boat it's so she's and singing to herself case you can tell this one's also a girl yeah this is our other we have three girls um Aurora Bellatrix and Eritrea being the youngest one and then carcannon is our third child my man child he's our little son um question what advice would you give to someone who's trying to start being self-sufficient and begin a home a homestyle lifestyle homestead lifestyle homestead sorry okay what advice would i give to someone who's trying to start being okay now this presumes that your brain functions which it probably does if you want to do this trust yourself more than everyone else like i i said something about this last week like if something doesn't make sense to you don't do it and if someone's telling you you really need to do something like figure out what they're trying to say what they're trying to communicate before you do it don't take anything on faith and um if you have an idea that you think you want to try to you know just to try something don't be afraid to do it totally totally try things and know that sometimes things aren't going to work out things are going to blow up in your face sometimes things are totally not going to work out at all but if you keep trying things a lot of times things are going to work out and whether or not something works out you're going to learn something and you and that's how you keep progressing so don't be afraid to try things and uh yeah it depends what your point you're at you know when you first buy land that you're hoping to live on it's kind of a scary thing like i remember when i first bought my land i was like super excited but i was also like this is this is a big step you know it's a lot of it's a lot of responsibility i'm giving myself but don't worry about that you know being alive is responsibility and you know what you're gonna die one day is no no getting around it you could die anytime so don't be afraid to try things and go for it and trust yourself more than everyone else that's the most important thing trust yourself um another question is how much is a gallon of gasoline and a pound of hamburger we could tell you the gasoline because terry was just here pound of hamburgers like two bucks buck fifty two bucks is it yeah somewhere between like a buck fifty and two dollars well gasoline's like five bucks a gallon or something is it more what over at the store right there oh that doesn't count that overcharges three different prices so over there it's six seventy five a gallon yeah at medardos it's five ninety and at jose it's five thirty wow yeah this is a lot cheaper i don't know yeah there's you i don't i don't want gasoline although i do have a chainsaw and i do get gasoline for that once in a while have you read henry david throw no i haven't actually oh no it's okay well i mean dude usually when people say dude they're they always seem to think she's a boy the only reason i corrected that uh what do you do when the kids are gone with him oh that's a question yeah what do you do when the kids are hanging out with me any questions i will answer them you go to sleep i wish no i saw her the thing is she always has the the little baby well not always sometimes you bring it over but she's still breath speaking so she can't be away from her mom for too long yeah are there parallel universes where jamie is less inspirational or are they all pretty amazing well oh my gosh um if it's like if it's going to be me it would have to be like me if it was different than me that would be someone else well i mean but i guess they could still be called all these possibilities well now i'm thinking what if multi universe what if something happened in my past and i i turned out totally different what if your parents didn't give you so much candy yeah or were more supportive yeah maybe then i would have stuck in the system or maybe your sister was nicer to you yeah my family was i mean i don't want to crap on my family too much but they made it very easy to leave basically what if i had no lego that's right what if i grew up with no lego i know it's oh my gosh um i would have just i you know once i got i started cutting up popsicle sticks and my mom's coat hangers which she loved i bet she loved building things out of that i would have built stuff out of anything but lego is pretty awesome um okay so i'm not sure about what this question is how about seafood you don't eat well we we had a lot of seafood oh my god i mean seafood i mean we don't need a lot of it because we haven't been i have no question any place on the island to make kids an awesome rope swing with that would jump off into the water i yeah i could definitely do it i'm like i was saying earlier like i don't want to put something around the edge of my island that's gonna be inviting to people because right now you come up to my island is just like like wall of like jungle yeah well you could do it in but then you stick your head through and it's like this cool little spot and i really like that no one comes to visit my island yeah like not not no one but like no one um no one unannounced like no one just shows up and is like oh your little place looks so inviting i just had to come up no no one just stops by my island and i love that like if someone's coming to my island it's because they they know me what if you glued up glued to nine pad well i i could make something like a crane that can stick out and we can do rope swings and then come back um Zachary wants to know why you don't try to troll for like barracuda or something yeah i just need to get i i have done that lots of times i used to always do that but i just stopped doing it i need to get my fishing thing back out and start doing it more again i'm hungry yeah i've just been busy doing other stuff should we go get lunch do you see some kids are using your old living space yeah i don't know anything about that yeah um do you want to go get lunch it's lunch time oh i would not have grown up glued to an ipad no oh no that went right into the picture all right um sorry that's okay i didn't actually had no bottom yeah it's like i kept putting it low all right just remember to edit that out yeah right at the end yeah okay okay i think we're taking off i'm going to have lunch yeah lunch time lunch time okay i'll fix the wish list oops and thanks to everybody who's supported yes thanks to everyone who's amazing well thanks thanks to everyone who's amazing that's what i'm saying supported by asking questions and keep your ideas i'm just saying thanks everyone for being amazing that's all i'm saying to everyone for being amazing that's windmill shop yes yes that would be amazing platform yes um all right guys we'll talk to you soon bye bye yeah 18
