What's coming up.
Added 2020-09-01 04:27:36 +0000 UTCI just want to thank you all. We've hit the point that allows us to truly start pushing ahead with some of the bigger stuff. Towards the end of September, you should start seeing an uptick in content of all kinds. Currently all of the videos are being organized into playlists, and starting now every video will make its way to Facebook (only about half were making it before).
I've started work on two books. One is a civics/history book and the other is a how-to workbook on establishing community networks. (Feel free to let me know which one I should be working on harder)
Since the tests were successful, a second channel full of long format content is in the works, and as soon as possible we will be filming on the road to really bring some of the content to life in a new way. As an example, the recent video on Blair mountain would've been filmed on Blair mountain had Covid not derailed everything.
Taking this to the next level would not be possible without all of you. I'm certain you'll be happy with your sponsorship of this. I'm (as always) way behind on messages, but will try to get through them in the next day or so.
There's a few more big things coming soon, but I'm going to keep some things a mystery.
I really can't thank you all enough. All of these little projects require resources that don't exist without you.

When is the "how-to workbook on establishing community networks" coming out and where can I get one?
2020-11-11 10:13:29 +0000 UTCIf the community networking leans toward survivalist strategies, I'd like to see that book first. If not, I'd like to see the history book first. It's about time we learn the correct version of history. I'm not happy I was fed racist pablum. I'd like to share it with my family and friends, too.
2020-11-08 07:51:31 +0000 UTCyou are a good guy thank you I'll stay on this channel if you get a chance check out the creator name Luka Lesson he is a slam poet
2020-11-01 01:13:42 +0000 UTCWant to know how badly Trump and company have done in handling the Covid-19 pandemic? Let's look at the numbers. If Germany had the same population as the US, their number of deaths would be 36,742. At the date of this post, the US number is 193K. So, we have had 156,258 more deaths than would have been the case had our government performed at the level of Germany's government. If we compare South Korea's numbers, we would have had 190,725 fewer deaths. The numbers do not lie, it is just the god awful truth. Trump has cost us more lives than the Korean and Vietnam wars did combined.
2020-09-12 04:35:37 +0000 UTCHi, Beau. Thank you for all you do, every last bit of it. Wish there was more I could do, but at least itβs the widowβs mite. ππΌππ₯
2020-09-10 02:38:08 +0000 UTCIβm going to increase my monthly. Letβs keep pushing this Beau. And I hope youβre still having fun. A hobby that blew up :)
2020-09-07 04:42:46 +0000 UTCI'm interested in the civics/history book. I just saw someone recently who says that the impact of stopping civics as a requirement of secondary education fifty years ago has resulted in the population to be ill prepared to participate in our democracy. The fact that Trump supporters don't understand the egregious abuses of Trump's administration shows that they don't know enough about how the government works, the separation of powers, the rule of law, etc.
2020-09-07 01:38:05 +0000 UTCA workbook sounds great!
2020-09-06 03:36:09 +0000 UTCyes right now I think the future is more pressing than the past although I do appreciate how you put the present in context with your knowledge of the past.
2020-09-05 21:45:29 +0000 UTCCommunity network book
2020-09-05 21:07:57 +0000 UTCI agree with above. Community network book

2020-09-04 19:35:52 +0000 UTCIn light of what is brewing on the near horizon, I'd have to say the community networking book is going to become much more important.
2020-09-04 16:45:30 +0000 UTCMy vote is for how to first. the historical context theory is cool and im sure would be good to know, but i'd rather know what to do and learn the why as i'm doing it, than learn a bunch of why and sit stationary not working on the what.
2020-09-04 00:26:59 +0000 UTCWhile I agree that both are valuable, I'd rather see the "How To" book (or honestly, any other "how to" guides that you feel would be useful) sooner rather than later.
2020-09-03 18:33:54 +0000 UTCHi Beau. Much depends on the size of your book project and the depth you want to get into. All being equal, I would finish the civics/ history book first because the subject, strategically speaking, would lay the ground for the second book, being "how to build communities". Just a thought :)))
2020-09-03 00:16:14 +0000 UTCI be the Odd duck I'm a history and civic person onlymby change our civics and approach to community, can we save the planet.
2020-09-02 23:51:35 +0000 UTCI am working on a spreadsheet that contains links to the videos if that would help. 407 videos so far.
2020-09-02 21:40:10 +0000 UTCI'm casting my vote for the community networking book. As interested in history as I am, I would really appreciate some more guidance on putting together a network in my neighborhood. I have been trying to go back and watch some of your older videos, but I feel like a book would be even more helpful.
2020-09-02 16:59:48 +0000 UTCI'm chiming in on the community networking book as well. That is a resource we sorely need in this moment of time. Wow, people working together. Hopefully people with different ideas, but we've found a way to lean on our commonality rather than our differences.
2020-09-02 08:37:34 +0000 UTCI would say the community networking is a more immediate use/need. Although I would personally enjoy a civics/history book authored by you.
2020-09-02 03:27:49 +0000 UTCI do history for a living, and I'd say the community networking book is far more critical.
