Prepping Your EDC With Mike Glover

[@GNARrD8thKILL]

It's a damn shame that you were demonitized.. Thank you for continuing to post your videos they are always on point and very informative. We appreciate you Mike 👍😎🇺🇲

[@jayklink851]

Many of our fellow 2a guys like to think of Fox News as pro-2a institution, and that may be (individual news anchors). However, Murdoch, owner of Fox, NY POST, WSJ ect, spent years having his newspapers cover how irresponsible it was for You Tube to monetize gun videos ect (PewDiePie just got the most coverage). They manufactured consent for You Tubes 'addpocalypse', YT didn't want to do that, it cost them a lot of revenue. The reality is, cable news and newspapers are a dying industry, so Murdoch was trying to keep his business interests relevant. In the UK and Australia, Murdoch owns 80-85% of ALL the national press (papers and cable). He put so much pressure on Australian legislators that they passed a law saying You Tube/Facebook, by law, have to pay Murdoch's companies the same rate for a television ad, but on You Tube.*=10-15 times more money for the same ad on a different YT channel.

[@CornpopOBD]

The Asian Glove got demonetized? He must have said something based on evidence developed from facts that were not in agreement with feelings. That would be my guess.

[@5N3K93]

His demonization has given him more credibility than he could’ve have ever acquired by just promoting himself.

[@swervysignals3620]

You're helping a lot of people. I know this goes without saying but please don't ever stop what you're doing Mike.

[@jayp2701]

@Adam Alexander Agree with you not wearing a headlamp during a gun fight. However I suspect he is implying using it in low visibility situations, such as traversing during a power outage, or perhaps walking a dark path at night, or map reading at dark, etc. I do not mean to be rhetoric when I say this one thing, Mike would not stop in a gun battle to wear a headlamp. I do not believe that is his message Adam. Also, a side note... Using a headlamp instead of a hand held flashlight, will free the use of both hands.

[@austinproduction19]

Adam Alexander common sense would say that he’s smart enough not to wear it on his head during a gun fight... I’m sure he has one light source because he’s trying to stay light and not have too much stuff, and he can hold it in his hand while doing lowlight gun work and then turn around and wear it for utility stuff

I took up ju jitsu at 54. I’m probably 20 years older than most dudes in the class. One of the reasons I do it is building and maintaining resilience. At a bare minimum you become much more accustomed to full contact struggle, in a relatively safe training environment.

[@davidrowe5437]

There's a lot of wisdom in there, man. A huge part of prepping for bad situations is getting used to "the suck." Lifting heavy weights. Rolling in BJJ for an hour. Long rucks. Fast runs. You gotta get used to that suffering, and it grows and prepares you in more ways than just the physical. Keep it up, man.

[@jestlv]

Agree; just the fact of almost every session having a younger, faster, stronger, larger, person on top of you, and training to escape/defend from that situation, very valuable.

[@vivienneclarke2421]

I'm 55 and over the last few months have really stepped up my physical training too. I have to work twice as hard as I did 20 years ago just to achieve the same goal! 10 years ago I was doing Krav Maga,not only was I the oldest one there,but also the only woman,most were ex military men,or cops lol. Good to hear someone else in our age group stepping it up ! High 5.... !!

[@reggaetonjones1988]

Just subbed. You are absolutely right. Being prepared is about mindset and lifestyle. Though being huge computer and gaming nerd, I've always loved outdoor stuff like backpacking and camping, but didn't get into low key prepping until roughly 7 years ago. 2015 My journey in being prepared for myself and mine was a slow and steady one. My first hurdle was my change in world view and how I viewed myself. Then I learned about how our monetary system really works. Those three things pushed me in the prepping direction: ditching victimhood, realizing my potential/purpose, and knowing how our monetary system truly functions. 2017 I began stacking everything I could. Food, water medical, tobacco and alcohol to trade, PM's, etc. I was even stacking ammo even though I didn't have a gun... Yet. Looking back on it, I saved so much money by buying my supplies at yesterday's prices. 2019 My second hurdle was getting my first firearm. I used to fear the gun - the tool/weapon itself. I was never openly against guns, but I believed that things would be better with less of them around. Thank God those days are over. I watched days of videos from many channels, yours included. Finally, I felt I knew enough to safely hold a gun and went to my local gun shop. No lie, I was both nervous and excited when I filled out the 4473. All that nervousness just for a single six Heritage Rough Rider revolver, ha ha. Today, I'm on the verge of needing a new locker and love gun socks. I've also fallen down the rabbit hole of gunsmithing - so much so that I'm entertaining the idea of checking out SDI for classes. From useless gaming nerd to chef, prepper and gunsmith. Not too bad, I'd say. I will say this: though I have changed and grown in many ways, the two constants in my life are my love for my country and God. Those will never change. Sorry for the long story, but I had to share because I am living out the points you've made in your video. Thanks for making it. Take care and God bless you!

[@kindnesscounts7748]

MG- It's clear you have a heart for people, your work and our nation. Mindset is where it's at! No BOB,BUG or EDC can take the place of a proper mindset. I believe having the proper mindset, except in the most catastrophic events, is all we need. It should be exercised daily just like other necessary skills. Thank you for leading off this video and others with a mindset check. Peace to you and your family and thank you for imparting your knowledge and wisdom to us on a regular basis.

Friday I put a gash in my scalp at work when my head hit the cage of my shop fan. Crazy how much a scalp wound bleeds. Grabbed a blue shop paper towel to apply pressure and clean up and it was not enough. Another shop towel and a Military OD green Sling/bandage I carry and tied the towel down and knotted it under my jaw. I looked like an idiot but I stopped the bleeding.

[@cainmorano4956]

Three critical aspects of mindset (all sort of the same thing) : stoicism, accepting things on their own terms, and flexibility. This is all equals resilience, rolling with the punches, and being robust (insensitivity to conditions, maintaining an even strain). This all requires getting the ego to loosen it's grip.

Pretty good talking points on keeping your brain in the fight and low grade vs high grade stress. The best framework I have for high stress situations is medical experience. You have to mentally compose your shit and exhibit calm deliberate actions. Sometimes your hanging onto a situation that is spiraling out of control by a thread. It could be hard to draw parallels with a tactical lifestyle from some civilian occupations, but I'm glad I was able to learn how to think under pressure. Keep your head in the fight!

I’m sure you rather have Mike’s opinion or someone with his background, but You def want to stay vigilant with firearms training/shooting if you have that physical capability. A positive you can def carry more gear, weapons and medical equipment for yourself and others, just not so much equipment that it will slow you down further. Not saying you or others have this mindset but, Never see yourself as a liability or a detriment to those around bc then you have already mentally defeated yourself and those around you! Try to camouflage your chair or scooter to the surrounding wildlife area you will be staying in and moving through. Just some simple ideas. Please Don’t hesitate to ask others who are trusted and like minded to help you with any type of preparation or training. You def will need a wolf pack around for a multitude of reasons, we all do! Your mind will always be your best asset Sir, get more knowledgeable on medical, farming, hunting/gathering non-poisonous food, and tactics.

[@yogirlabc]

Hi Old.John, a few ideas on a how to protect yourself is, check out what your area offers as far as firearms training that is accessible, if that is the route that you want to go. Krav Maga one route that you can look into for self defence. Also you can look into just basic self defence classes in your area, sometimes the police departments will give a cheep/free class to the senior centers around here .You probably have a bug out bag already but some things that you might want in it are.Pepper spray, a good flashlight (I like the Makhaira Tactical) A good Pen that you can use as a striking tool. At the end of the day you can use just about anything as a tool to extend your reach. A pot of boiling water, a cast iron skillet, a hammer etc. use what you got. Other things you should have with you in your bag are Medications, what ever you will need for a full day, if you have space 3 days. Depending on what you need, aspirin is pretty easy to carry Catheters and insulin take up more room. Some kind of shelter a poncho, tarp even a jacket can help, Water or some way of cleaning and carrying water, Food. granola bars, mre's I have found that mayday emergency food rations are light and don't take a lot of space but a cliff bar takes even less.(Gummy bears) Buy a few different kinds and taste them, some of them are not to bad some of them taste like dirt. A multi tool, If you are in a wheelchair or your loved one is, look into how to fix it before you need it and if it takes special tools, The same thing goes with your walker or power scooter. If all you need is a spoon all of the knifes in the world aren't going to help you.A good bag to have is a fanny pack, or a pack like what Mike has in this video that way you can keep you stuff on you. Knowledge weighs nothing, Keep learning! I hope that this helps you.
