KJ Keightley is a husband, father, homesteader, farmer, firearms absolutist, outdoorsman, Gaia sandals ambassador, and a helluva guy. We met recently in a chatroom full of barbarians and fell into each other's orbit. Like all good friends we recognized something in each other. In him I saw true spirit, expertise, and an attitude towards life and masculinity that I could relate to, and respect. But living in lockdown life, it can be difficult sometimes to get to know the men that we've recently become closest to. We can't just have a beer or go fishing like we used to. We have to do the thing that men aren't always best at: talk. Only in doing that can we turn our acquaintances in to friends, friends into brothers, and brothers into the foundations of a new civilization. In our conversation on this podcast we discussed: His background and upbringing, and how he went from a near-dropout drug dealer to the family man he is today The killer story of his high school graduation, and what it says about his get-it-done attitude and rebel spirit His approach to personal sovereignty and preparedness, and how that translates across the full spectrum of his life to farming, solar power, and firearms Our mutual stance against mask world and encroaching bureaucratic and medical tyranny (come and take it) And finally, the story about how he died. Twice. And came back. And what it means to him to live with that knowledge every day. Fair warning, we were drinking whiskey during this episode. So it's probably best to think of it less like a podcast, and more like two men sitting on a back porch under the stars, having a chat. So get ready for three full-send hours I think you're gonna love. Because ladies and gentlemen, KJ says words.
