Building that house and having a baby with your wife is amazing. Nothing tops those 2 things. very happy for you, and can't wait for those 2 big reveals.
Your channel is all over the place but it's exactly what relates to me. Into guns, have a modded Tacoma and occasionally go camping with it, bought a house and remodeling. Your channel pretty much checks every box
Olive holster is amazing. Thanks for the prompt and great customer service!! Also congratulations man being a dad is by far the most rewarding thing life can offer.
What a good video! The personal aspect, like you're talking to a buddy, is what makes it great. What a crazy time for you! Looks like you could use a good nap. Good luck with that one. 😉
Your flannel game is next level, can't wait for the release. Your videos may be all over the place but your channel is perfect for people like me that are all around types and like multiple things they enjoy. I've personally enjoyed every topic you've talked about, especially these gear and clothing videos
I just have two things to say. Your appendix holster is #$%#%ing Amazing!!! Second thing is your recommendation on Vertx pants was Clutch as well. I bought two pairs and ended up buying two more! Love your videos man doesn't matter what you are posting. Congrats on being a dad man! Welcome to Dad bod club.
1. congrats on the baby! I watched the entire video as I was nap trapped holding my 4 month old baby. My wife and I tried for a baby and had a similar story to you and Ashley. Looking forward to dad content????!!!! 2. I love your EDC videos, and I love that it hasn’t changed over the years (I’m a big time LLOD lurker) it is the definition of EDC.
Picked up some of those Amazon Henley’s. Looking forward to the video when you drop the new flannel. Wife and I are replacing the vertical wood paneling in our living room, where did you get the multi color panels in the background? Like the tones and colors.
It's times like these I love to scroll way back and rewatch some of the very early Llod videos.... I'm talking 4 or 5 yr old stuff . ! Very nostalgic. Love seeing the Tacoma in almost stock form and Mike who looks like a scronny high school kid... Love the content Mike . Don't ever take the old videos down . Thanks for keeping it real 👍
I’ve watched you more this past year, 2022, and I’ve kicked myself for not paying attention to your channel earlier. I appreciate the person you are, good solid family man, quality human, and some snobby selfish TH-camr, and I love hearing your ramblings dude, you just are down to earth. Good stuff
Congrats on the Baby, Marriage and a great life in general. Thanks for sharing your opinions on gear and also for sharing insights into your life. Much success and happiness to you and your family in 2023!
Happy for you and your wife with the new baby in 2023! Get lots of naps as that newborn will eat every two hours for first few weeks. My wife and I took shifts feeding newborns so we both could get sleep. Hopefully that helps. When you finish your house and working on the homestead for self sufficient food production, hit me up I would love to help you guys. I am a Soil Food Web grad, in West Colorado would be happy to take soil samples and get your garden growing fully organic. Thanks for the EDC update.
Hey congrats on the house and the upcoming baby! I love the gear. I bought the Vertx Integrity P+ you had on the Christmas gifts episode. I love that jacket and you are right that sucker is deceptively warm and comfortable. Love it, like you said NOT a work jacket but for non work related stuff it's outstanding. You are going to drain my savings posting this stuff though! Gotta grab some more of these items. Looks like some great stuff.
1: underwear is important lol 2: super glad you got the Lems. I was actually about to comment you needed some minimalist boots and recommend Lems. I have been wearing barefoot minimalist shoes for years and never looked back. 3: yes to knife review 4: congratulations again on the baby and yes it is awesome it didn't take y'all long. It took 10 or 11 months of trying with both of our boys. Very stressful stuff but we're blessed. I think that is all lol.
Not gonna lie, I saw the thumbnail on this and thought you were doing a Mike Glover cosplay 😂 great content dude. Congrats on the baby too! Welcome to Brotherhood of Fatherhood.
Mike you should do I life hacks video. Curious to see how you stay so motivated, time management and such. You're a focused dude, some tips would be awesome
I find myself going to my G43x. I have some S15 mags, but still ccw the stock mags. In my old age I want comfort, and I feel like adding weight is counterproductive to that end. I’m waiting on your holster for it though. I’m motivated to try it out. I have tons of appendix holsters for it, but they all fall short one way or another. Good Vid, and plan on looking at some of the boots you mentioned
16:40 I had a pair of Timberland boots called the White Ledge that looked very similar and were really great. Comfortable, durable, and not too expensive.
Kuhl is my favorite brand for just about anything they make. My favorite item by them they I've got is my flannel. Not only is it red white and blue but it's fleece lined and has pockets for my hands. Viktos Operatus are the most comfy jeans I've got.
I have a question for you for overlanding vehicles and which would be the best. I'm currently looking at military vehicles that are 6x6 and I'm looking at the deuce-and-a-half a2 which is a manual and has a multi fuel engine. The deuce-and-a-half A3 which is an automatic. The 5-ton and the 7 ton. Out of all those in your opinion which would be the best as far as a overlanding vehicles / bug-out vehicle / total societal collapse vehicle? Thanks I really like your videos and content.
Love the gear videos so much. May I recommend, if you like the LEMS boots, check out the Altra Lone Peak All-Weather too. All their stuff is 0’d heel/toe and wide toe as well. I have those and the Caydes for any non work occasion. ALSO For underwear, Sheath is the game changer. Dual pouches for separation. I have lots of the bamboo pairs and I can’t go back to anything else. Congrats on all your hard work and your next chapter into fatherhood bro.
I have chris reeves umnumzann, hinderer xm18, microtechs and I've been on a fixed blade kick for a while especially getting a tad older and living in east, TN with pretty open knife laws. Fixed blades are so dependable and reliable for EDC especially anything 4inches or smaller
That flint and tinder trucker jacket is my all time favorite. Wore a thin synthetic insulated jacket with the trucker over top every day to work last winter and it’s held up amazingly in all the elements. A bit pricey but it’s seeming like it will last a life time.
Great to here that jacket is great. Same it’s very pricey for me but I’m after that kinda one jacket I’ll wear for years instead of cheap rubbish that doesn’t last.
Awsome video! I'd recommend putting some pivot lube on your shaman. You will be surprised with how smooth the action will become.both of my shamans came with stiff action but after a little pivot lube and some flipping they become very very smooth without adjusting the pivot.congrats on the baby!
Perfect timing on this video. Doing truck driver shit today and great to listen to. Nice job, congrats on the incoming little one and your channel is one of my favorites to watch. 👍🏻
Came here from beardbrand to check in on the progress lmao. I’m actually shocked your almost got the cheek hair at stubble stage motivated me to grow my own beard I’m 19
14:17 it would be soooo awesome if Vertx would make a version of the delta stretch that are more slim for us skinny skinny folks. I loved them so much but they were extremely baggy on me.
Enjoy your videos and like your rambles too. Too many videos on here are so structured. When I watch your videos I feel like we’re hanging out or something (even if you don’t know me haha). Anyway, keep the fun content coming!
Hey man really enjoyed the video. I’ve learned a lot from it. You are such an awesome individual. Congratulations on the upcoming birth of you child. I hope all goes well. It’s a beautiful thing Much love
Mike I hope the birth goes well. Congrats buddy! The Lems Boulders are awesome. I bought the leather ones before they realised the waterproof ones, however Nikwax waterproofing for leather has made them exceptionally waterproof. Barefoot/minimalist footwear is the way forward, I’m never going back. Vivobarefoot make some great footwear too. Clothing is so overlooked regarding edc. The Flint and Tinder Waxed trucker jacket is my list after watching Yellowstone 😂! Also the Stetson rector baseball cap is the most comfortable cap I’ve ever bought.
Congratulations on the baby and I also came here to tell you that the mustache looks great. I learned about your channel through the video of bearbrand. I think it suits you very well and it also goes well with what you do on your channel, it adds something. I guess you shaved it off now but I felt like adding my 2 cents.
If you have a wide toe box, Salomon makes some great boots and shoes in wide. Just good options for work boots, or hikers.. now that I need to try a pair of your new one!
I have two pairs of the delta stretch pants and they both shrink over time. Even the cuffs at the bottom shrank. Any recommendations for washing them to prevent shrinking?
This week, code "LASTLINE" is bumped up to 25% off everything at vertx.com/
Bro what the heck do you do for work? Like what’s your real job before TH-cam and before the holsters and all what was the job
Congratulations on everything happening. Do the vertex Jean run a little big? Order 42x30 and they are bigger than normal jeans I buy.
@@Apalm12I think he mentioned before that he is/was a web developer
Hi Mike the face is coming along great! Very western! May God bless you and your family😁♥
@@Apalm12 yep as said below. He was a web developer

its all related to the whole preparedness
Henleys and flannels are my go to this time of the year, always dress in layers. I can't wait to try out one of your flannels, they look tuff
Olive holster is amazing. Thanks for the prompt and great customer service!! Also congratulations man being a dad is by far the most rewarding thing life can offer.

Appreciate it!
First thing i was going to comment on was the Flannel! The color is legit!
Congratulation on the coming baby Mike! Hoping for a successful deliver for the wifey.
Congratulations on being a dad Just had my baby girl on the 23rd of December 2022 The most awesome feeling in the world

Excited for the flannel and beanies to come out. They look great!
Congratulations!!! Life won’t get any less busy with your family’s new addition but you’ll find a way to get through it, enjoy this for yourselves.
I’m all over that flannel color way. I would buy one of those for sure.
1. congrats on the baby! I watched the entire video as I was nap trapped holding my 4 month old baby. My wife and I tried for a baby and had a similar story to you and Ashley. Looking forward to dad content????!!!!

That flannel you are wearing is very nice! I love flannels as well and I love the colors on that one

Just got a pair of the Lems Boulder Summit. They. Are. Awesome.

I love rambling videos.
But I also love to ramble.
Who needs primetime TV when you got LLOD EDC videos coming out every couple months.
A well loved OG style LLOD rambling video. I’ve been watching from the start when the Tacoma was Quicksand and you had traded your GTI for it.
I have the same Lems boots and they're dope; wide toe box and zero drop FTW
Hey Mike, loved the video. Seems to me you've got some of your energy back! Loved the hyped up rambling, been missing that a bit :)
I don't know if it's that killer mustache, or excited about your baby coming, or what it was, but loved the energy
It was a little bit like a live, just loved it
Haha thanks man - think I just had a nice day to relax!
Awesome vid man, dug the rambling. You seem like a really good dude.
mustache is looking good Mike, keep it growing!
I have a question for you for overlanding vehicles and which would be the best.

Congrats on all your hard work and your next chapter into fatherhood bro.
I have chris reeves umnumzann, hinderer xm18, microtechs and I've been on a fixed blade kick for a while especially getting a tad older and living in east, TN with pretty open knife laws. Fixed blades are so dependable and reliable for EDC especially anything 4inches or smaller
Congratulations on the new addition!
Damn whenever mike does an edc vid just take my money love your swag! Congrats on the becoming a Dad!
That flint and tinder trucker jacket is my all time favorite. Wore a thin synthetic insulated jacket with the trucker over top every day to work last winter and it’s held up amazingly in all the elements. A bit pricey but it’s seeming like it will last a life time.
Great to here that jacket is great. Same it’s very pricey for me but I’m after that kinda one jacket I’ll wear for years instead of cheap rubbish that doesn’t last.
The beard looked great after 2 months! You DEFINITELY had potential for a nice full beard bro
The canner bull run boots are super nice and they’re pretty wide in the EE and stitch down
I love the lems. And can’t wait for the knife content. Fixed blades are getting more popular so I’m excited to see what you got.
My favorite ramble video, so far!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awsome video! I'd recommend putting some pivot lube on your shaman. You will be surprised with how smooth the action will become.both of my shamans came with stiff action but after a little pivot lube and some flipping they become very very smooth without adjusting the pivot.congrats on the baby!

Have you ever looked into 1620 workwear? Would be interested in a review from you
Well congratulations man
Congrats on the expanding fam
Dude I love that shirt please make them in 3xls and I will be getting some for sure!!!!
If you have a wide toe box, Salomon makes some great boots and shoes in wide. Just good options for work boots, or hikers.. now that I need to try a pair of your new one!
What color is the flint and tinder wax jacket on the site?
Moss I think
omg that stash is awsome fella
Freedom tremor hat still my absolute favorite hat. Constantly get comments on it!
If you havent discovered them yet but check out Montana knife company MKC. Based out of Frenchtown Montana. On my list to get one but quality.
Speaking of chickens... Where and how are they while your building?
They're still here at my current house I'm living in.
Congratulations bud 🤙
G19 just seems so heavy compared to the 43x, I got the mos as well! Dang son I forgot you did holsters. Time to get one!
Congrats on the kid man. My wife is about to have our second. Factory mag in the Glock? Thoughts on shield arms mag?
Yes the 32° cool come from Costco I have two packages
I have two pairs of the delta stretch pants and they both shrink over time. Even the cuffs at the bottom shrank. Any recommendations for washing them to prevent shrinking?
Always wanted an LLOD and Tactical Hyve hat👍
Loving the moustache 👍🏻
Great video and content as always! Just picked up a shaman too, haven't edc'd it yet but loving it as much as my para 3✌️
Been binge watching some of your older Tacoma videos
Damn son that Stache is looking on point.
That flannel is nice 👌🏻
Thanks Mike, Love your content!
