Hi from down the road in Glasgow :)

[@misscarmen491]

Yay! Great to see you again Mr Cliff!! 🎉 Have missed you & your wonderful PDFs. Your organization is, as noted previously, legendary. Glad you took a break but good to have you back.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

It was a nice break, but it feels REALLY good to post a new video.

[@davidhochstadt9650]

Hi Cliff. Like many of the other comments, I have missed you and your fantastic videos. I’ve always learned from you and have been able to incorporate your ideas into my own edc. So many edc KZbinrs site to you in their own videos. It’s really nice to see the humility that all of us feel towards you. I’ve been an edc person since I was 6 years old. That was 62 years ago. When I watch your many videos I still feel like I’m a novice. Thank you sir and welcome back.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

I love this comment! Thank you SO much, David! It is so flattering that my videos are useful to viewers and other KZbinrs.

[@mdamdtraveldoc7183]

Awesome to have you back, this is going to be great. Welcome Home!

[@willyfermin]

Gracias por mantener viva esta hermosa cultura del EDC. Muchas Gracias.

[@InformalGreeting]

I don’t know if I have ever been happier to see a video in my feed. I absolutely love the way you approach prepping. And even better, I love the way you present the information. The best part of this video is the promise of more to come. I absolutely cannot wait.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Wow! Thank you so much. Yes, more videos are coming. The next one will go live next week. Thanks for your patience!

[@lamontcranston6999]

Great video. Nice to see you’re back. What a relief from “The world is ending tomorrow “ videos

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Brilliant to see you back Cliff, you have been a great inspiration for real world urban preparedness for me.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Wow! Thank you SO much, Matthew!

[@williamdouglass3994]

TUP, you're a breath of fresh air. We left the pacific northwest due to the issues there. Glad you're one of the good ones who've stayed. May God bless you and your family!!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Thank you so much, William! Yeah, it's been getting worse and worse lately.

[@williamdouglass3994]

@TheUrbanPrepper I was a state employee and decided I didn't want the vaccine. But the governor had mandated it, and I got fired. So we moved on.

Cliff - just thinking about some of your old videos this morning! Glad to see you posted today!!!

So cool that people still enjoy my style of prepping videos.

[@robertcachia6484]

Nice to see you again. I never gave EDC much though before I started watching your videos.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Wow! I'm happy that my videos have helped you. I'm honored!

Welcome back bud! All American prepper is fuming right now

Glad youre back! Love the color coding modules - you’re probably the most organized Prepper on YT!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Thank you so much! They help me easily know where things are at.

Great video Cliff. The laptop scene had me crackin up!

Hi Cliff, We always love hearing your insights and videos. All the best to you and your family.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

I'm flattered. Thank you!

[@2dividedby3equals666]

Good to hear from you Cliff, I hope the family is doing well. It looks like a solid set up, as you said your core items are the same but is interesting to see new gear getting into the rotation, solving problems we had with the old stuff. Looking forward to the prepper phone video. Thanks for sharing and take care!!

[@apepex1464]

Every few years I have to rotate my edc and to make adjustments to my environment. I’ve notice that carrying a backpack in stores makes me look like a thief automatically because of all the looters and thieves ransacking the stores. I’ve adjusted by wearing a sling bag but the people are still on alert when they see bags of any kind. I’ve always believe if your edc is not on you than it will eventually be taken or lost. You and everyone on YT sharing your edc items are a big asset to the edc communities, and I thank you for all the years of keeping me entertained and informed of new gears.

[@TruthAndTattoos]

I feel ya. Had the police called on me at CVS just bc I had my sling bag with me while I was waiting for an hour to be seen at the 'minute' clinic. The cop actually seemed aggravated that the store called them bc I literally wasn't do anything wrong & definitely nothing illegal. All the pharmacists knew me by name & immediately started vouching for me bc I've shopped there for over a decade. But having my sling bag on me was enough to make the girl that worked the front call the law. I've sinced changed up my daily carry bc a different day, a different cop & that could've ended in completely different way.

[@vsevolodtokarev]

1:13 "[I don't] color organize EDC like an all-black EDC or an all-white EDC or a pumpkin spice EDC 5:49 "I painted it the [Streamlight wedge flashlight] same blue color as the Benchmade" Looks like you do, to an extent. And I am sure glad you are back, thank you!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

LOL! True. The rest of the kit it's blue for the sake of being blue. Just the knife and flashlight. I celebrate many colors as part of the color of prepping system.

[@jozzywolf7520]

I was so glad to see your video this evening! I’ve really missed your videos. I’m so tired of “news” prepper videos and missed ones about kits and things like that.

Thank you so much!

[@dude374thetenthman.5]

Glad to see you are back. Like seeing an old friend.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Thank you for the support, friend!

[@rickmaudlin2160]

Love your color coding system. In addition to category colors, I use the electronics "resistor color-code". You can identify any number by using 10 colors. This can be a fast way to label bins by priority, or rotation items by order or date. I use electrical tape from Home Depot to make it quick and easy.. It is also a great way to discreetly label sensitive items/ containers, i.e., 223 = Red Red Orange 9 = White 12= Brown Red

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Nice! I would like to learn more about your resistor color code!

[@rickmaudlin2160]

[@EasyMac308]

Gotta wrap something around the lever on your Bic. I recommend using a ladies' hair band. It keeps your gas from coming out, makes you look like a rockstar for the women in your life who are constantly using/breaking hair bands, and you can use it for anything you might need a rubber band for (improvised phone stands, lashing, binding, holding your pants together, etc).

[@matthewhebbert9712]

I highly recommend the Rolling Square Incharge X ultra-fast charging cable for electronic charging needs. It has USB-A, USB-C, Micro USB, and Lightning adapters all built in, and it is very compact and durable.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

I'm going to get one. Thanks for the recommendation!

[@matthewhebbert9712]

@TheUrbanPrepper Sweet! I think you'll really like it. Be careful, though, and make sure you get the newer "ultra fast"/rapid charge version. They made an older version that does NOT rapid charge, which makes it nearly useless (to me, at least). I accidentally bought the older one and was very disappointed in the slow charging, but once I got the newer rapid charge one I was 100% happy with it.

[@first-namelast-name4198]

Brought back memories of when I first started watching TUP.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

So cool!

[@anchorageprepper9008]

Love the idea of the Pumpkin Spice EDC idea 😂 The Burner Wallet idea is a really good idea in those higher crime areas of the Country 🥰 Welcome back Cliff

[@LaineyBug2020]

I love that this whole niche industry has evolved because guys don't want to carry a purse. Like, this was always what I just had in my purse and I learned from my mom. Yes, weapons were always included. I remember always being the 'Mom' friend because I always had extra gum/meds/first aid/snacks/lighter/sewing kit/mini tools, etc. etc.

[@sosteve9113]

Similar like what I have on my EDC

[@maskddingo1779]

This "industry" didn't evolve because guys don't want to carry a purse. Purses evolved because women don't want stuff in their pockets... if their clothing even has them, that is. 😂 Purses are a terrible way to cary stiff.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Haha! Yeah, guys are deep down jealous of women's purses. Lots of capabilities!

[@Danni.D]

Exactly - lol. I lug a purse around and the men ask me for aspirin or whatever and my friends who refuse to carry a purse are always needing something out of my Mary Poppins bag.

[@dave.in.oregon]

Glad to see your videos again! Welcome back! Although I'm no longer a "city dweller", I've spent enough years commuting in & out of NYC to always have my head on a swivel and would strongly urge you NOT to carry a wallet in a your back pocket. Ever. Just bad practice. Otherwise, as usual, very thoughtfully laid out.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Yeah, in downtown I move the burner wallet there. I'm also in the suburbs frequently, so I don't worry as much about the back pocket wallet then.
