Reactivating-My-YouTube-Channel-Bob Davis Podcast 1098

Reactivating My You Tube Channel

Firstly I am an audio guy so reactivating my YouTube channel is a big step for me. Details in Reactivating-My-YouTube-Channel-Bob Davis Podcast 1098.

Thanks To A Big YouTube Channel

Secondly this is all due to appearing in Peter Santenello’s Off The Grid video from Quartzsite Arizona.

Encouragement

Certainly all the nomads featured in the video received a lot of messages and encouragement from Peter’s viewers.

And we really appreciate it.

Power

Above all it convinced me again of the power of the YouTube platform.

How I Used YouTube

However over the years I avoided YouTube except for very specific uses.

Investment

Because I felt if I was going to do video I would have to invest in equipment and editors.

End Of Worry

But I’m not going to worry about all of that now.

My Intentions

Most importantly I’ll explain in this podcast how I intend to use the channel in the future.

Background

In addition it’s a good opportunity to provide some background on The Bob Davis Podcasts for new subscribers and listeners.

Podcast Listeners Welcome To YouTube and Visa Versa

Even more an opportunity to introduce long time listeners to my YouTube effort.

Off The Grid

Finally I’ll do some clarifications and explanations of what we were talking about in the Off The Grid video.

Life In An Ambulance

And another video Peter put up about living in an ambulance.

Different Flavors of Nomad

For example there are different kinds of nomads.

Some in cars and tents.

Still others inĀ  home built RV’s and the expensive big rigs.

Not to mention Bus Life!

Different Philosophies

In addition there are different philosophies about nomad life.

We Don’t All Agree

That is to say we do not all agree about what nomad life is and what it means.

Vibrant Community

Consequently it makes for a vibrant community.

Why Come Out

For example what if you have little or no camping experience?

Should you come out in a car long term?

And what kind of people will you encounter?

Not For Everyone

In short it’s not for everyone.

Born To Wander

But if you have the bug to wander deep down inside it is probably for you.

Updates Loose Ends and Clarifications

Firstly from time to time I do updates clarifications and tie up loose ends. Find out why in Updates-Loose-Ends-Clarifications-Bob Davis Podcast 1069.

Dream World

Secondly nomad life is a dream world.

Sailing On The Sea

That is to say this life is more like sailing between islands.

Doesn’t Matter What Day It Is

Certainly when you’re out on the water you don’t care what day it is.

Series

Because I have been doing podcasts on the inflation and economic issues facing nomads since the beginning of 2022 they have become kind of a series.

Fighting Complex Topics

And every now and then I find myself struggling with the complexities and left brain nature of finance and economics.

Dreamy Nomad Life

Even more due to the dreamy nature of nomad life.

The Great Basin

So I am up in the mountains above The Great Basin.

Food and Fuel Prices

Considering the intensity of food and fuel prices this is a perfect time and place to make some corrections updates and clarifications about these issues from podcast 1068.

Taking A Pause

However as usual it is also time to take a pause.

Sounds Of The Night

Listen to the night sounds.

Sundown In The Mountains

Enjoy the sundown and late evening dusk here at Great Basin National Park.

Talk About Prices

But it’s also a perfect time to clarify why I believe prices will continue to go down.

Slow Down Coming

Moreover why I think we’re headed for a major economic slow down in the near future.

Complex

Finally I will warn listeners the second half of this podcast might feel little complex.

No Political Rhetoric

On the other hand you usually don’t find these explanations free of political rhetoric in most places.

Cheaper Food and Fuel

Above all my goal is to give hope to fellow nomads rooting for cheaper food and fuel.

Simplify

In addition my goal is to try and simplify a bit of the talk about the economy.

Information You Can Use

Therefore we’ll have some information we can use.

What To Look For

In the same vein at least we will know what to look for in coming weeks to confirm some of my conclusions in Updates-Loose-Ends-Clarifications-Bob Davis Podcast 1069.

Last Economic Podcast For Awhile

To sum up this will be the last so called economic podcast I’ll do for awhile.

Full Travel Vibe…Next

So we’ll be back to the full travel vibe until we hit another turning point.

Obsession

Secondly the road to Shambala is all about a bit of an obsession these days.

Tired Of The Vice

Certainly younger adults are beginning to tire of high rents and home prices back in the world.

And the day to day pressure in big cities that has begun to feel like a vice.

Welcoming Community

Therefore there’s a lot of conversation about how to design and build a welcoming community.

Sustainable Community

Even more a sustainable community that works.

Welcome to Shambala!

Mountains

Nestled high in the mountains of Colorado.

Mining And Farming

But with a twist.

Dedicated To Community

Most of Shambala’s new and long term residents are committed to building just such a community mentioned above.

So far they’re making it work.

Don’t Tell Anyone

And that is why they don’t want anyone to know the actual name of the town.

Cooperation and Collaboration

For example community kitchens, Waldorf based schools and a spirit of cooperation and collaboration.

Most importantly this is a community that works at being a community.

Questions

Certainly I have questions. We’ll talk about them in Road-To-Shambala-Bob Davis Podcast 1059.

Thai Food At The Community Kitchen

However it’s pretty amazing to be able to enjoy Thai Food at the community kitchen with ingredients picked that morning from a local farm.

Another for instance might be how the town welcomes new born babies.

Celebrations and Events

In addition there are plenty of town celebrations and events.

Networking

Finally it is an idea people network and work toward in Shambala.

Not Bougie

Finally Shambala is a western mountain town without bougie trappings.

No Expensive Development

And without the expensive development that has ruined so many other western towns.
