Update about Bill in the comments.
We went on down to Arkansas for a third visit with Bill and Jo. And this time, we stayed the whole day. Fishing holes, raccoon traps, and lots of Bill being Bill (and Jo being Jo).
5/15/22 - This episode is now affiliated with our nonprofit The Periphery Foundation (theperiphery.org). See fundraiser for Bill on this video page.
Or, DONATE TO BILL at our GoFundMe for him: www.gofundme.com/f/tipping-ar...
Thank you for watching and caring.

Yep. That's Scott County, Arkansas. My late grandma was from Scott County and her family has been there since about 1850, most of them lived in the Tomlinson area. It's extremely rural. Only about 40% of the people in Scott County live in the "cities" of Waldron and Mansfield. They ain't got much but they're a hell of a lot happier than most of us that are running the rat race.

I hafta admit I was a bit confused as to why you were making these videos at first. I used to live in Arkansas for about 10 years and with my buddy would often travel the back roads and come across people like Bill and befriended some too. At first I thought you was exploiting this man til I watched a few of your videos and realized you were sincere in showing a man and his lifestyle to people who could never see it first hand. So all I got to say is I think you've done a good job in doing so. Good luck to you, Bill and Jo and your future endeavors 😉

Real talk right there, off-grid is rough, sure, but there's 0 stress from scummy people at work, no-one's gonna sue you for all your money.. All the toxic stuff majority of normal people deal with every single day, you only deal with like once or twice a year when living " 'off the land".. It's not for everybody obviously thought, it's really about what floats your boat, you can be urban and enjoy life too, but the way society is there's less and less of a chance of that happening.

BTW: Love their donkey..he or she is too cute..

What a great couple of people. If we could all have the outlook and generous nature, especially since they dont have much, this world would be a wonderful place.

Excellent presentation!✌️❤️Living in a rural township at 51 years old for the last 23 years I have friends , know people and families that grew up and live this way. That being said I also lived in downtown Toronto from age 15-30 drumming in punk rock bands, running a 24/7 boozecan for a motorcycle enthusiast group. We had patrons from every walk of life from last call to 7a.m. Lawyers, doctors, garbage men, postal workers,artists , actors, musicians, many celebrities, street people, lost souls, strippers, thugs, urban hillbillies. So much I learned from interacting with so many different people. I’ve seen things the average person will never experience except through fictional movies or series which can be entertaining . I have learned by personal experience, listening to friends and other real life interesting characters, formally educated or not, immigrants, Gypsies , millionaires, rockstars, farmers, entrepreneurs, technologists, artists, construction workers, drug dealers, Christians, Muslim, Hindu, Jewish, agnostics, satanists, vegetarians, libertarians, conservatives and their stories and situations, the good, the bad, happy, fortunate, unfortunate, hardworking, lazy, hopeful, desperate. Having a 16 year old daughter and 6 year old son I can say I will be forever learning the new ways while passing on the importance of traditional values and the value of sharing and learning from history rather than erasing it because it offends someone. At the end of the day we’re all the same. ✌️❤️🇨🇦

Bill Jones is true American living life not bothering anyone!! Living off land should be everyone way of life and none of the bs. Mind your business and spread love and help each other if possible. Love what you doing Brandon. Would love to start something like this just outside of the city and hard to just walk up to a house that look like they need help and offer. Then you might offend or piss someone off this day!! Thanks again and thank to your brother can’t remember his name off the top of my head!!!

Thank you, Mutt:) It was a fated encounter with ol' Bill, me just stopping to check out his property, him walking out to greet me. That said, I've found many people are open to talking to an outsider interested in their life, their local culture. It's how I interviewed the Mennonites and several others on my channel. What region do you live in? Which city? -Brandon

WHAT REALLY STUCK WITH ME IS WHEN THE GIRLFRIEND SAID ASK HIM IF HE'S GOT A CIGARETTE 😔.....the United States Foreign aid includes some countries getting $5.,000.000.000.00 per year and other countries getting $3,000.000.000.00 per year but yet our own citizens are struggling to make it ....there's something wrong here .....this is our money ....yes we care about the world but our citizens come first and I'm sure we'll still have leftover to help the world 🌎 after we take care of our own ...the United States of America is for the people by the people .....and we're definitely not here to cater to foreign lobbyists at the expense of our own citizens. ...May God Bless Bill and Jo and May God Bless the United States of America 🇺🇸

awsome video, life out there is so different, so pure. Bill is happy with what he has unlike millions of other people that have it all and still are not satisfied. we have to thank god each and every day for being healthy and being able to have a plate of food on the table. i would give anything to spend a day out there with bill, ill definitely return back home with a different mind set.....god bless them both!!!, by the way im from New Jersey.......

I was born in Louisville Ky In 1947 we lived in the country and was raised in a long cabin and that was the best time of my life by the time my brother’s and I were 6,7 and 9 we were camping out we know every tree in the woods we know how to hunt fish 🐠 build a fire 🔥 those were the good old days

Truly inspiring. I'd love to spend a month at this guy's place and re-connect with the true nature of ourselves -- to survive and be content with only the natural things we need to survive -- shelter from the elements, self sustenance, love of others and love of fulfilling activities.
