Be the ideal YOU!
January 04, 2021 22:00 - 16 minutes - 11.6 MBI’ve kind of racked my paleolithic brain to come up with a theme for the new decade, and have decided that if I, and you all live up to our potential- fully, not kind of just sluffing along half-heartedly- we will save not only ourselves and our families, but all of western civilization! So here is what you do: You start exercising, every single day! Every MORNING- this is important! The form of exercise should be done at home, where you have complete control, and can be outside or in, ...
Your Tribe is More Important than YOU!
November 25, 2020 00:00 - 10 minutes - 7.32 MBWe live in a world where we all aspire to be #1! The best in our category: our line of work, best looking, most successful, the most wonderful person that ever lived. Popular and sought after! That’s what matters! I’m here to tell you that no, that is not a worthy goal. None of it is, not at all. We are here to support and provide for our tribe, meaning our family, neighborhood, friends and church. We, personally, are just a cog, a part of what makes us what and who we are. Small pot...

The Key to Health, Wellness, and Fitness on PJSC
November 12, 2020 23:00 - 10 minutes - 7.46 MBIt’s really rather simple, becoming or staying fit and healthy: consistency! Not herculean efforts that leave you drained done sporadically, or plugging away, jogging and walking for endless distances. Neither is natural, or desirable. The best strategy to life, as well as strength, health, and fitness is to just do things daily, or nearly so. A simple list will do, really. Go to bed early. Sleep 8 hours, or more Exercise first thing! In front of the TV is best, stimulating your mind...
It's Not Racism- It's IQ
November 02, 2020 22:00 - 8 minutes - 6.14 MBLately in the United States, and throughout the western world, the primary problem being focussed on is white racism. This malady we supposedly possess en masse, even if we deny it or don’t know it, explains everything! It tells us that all of the massive dysfunction, wildly out-of-proportion crime and violence, substandard performance in school, careers, and simply the inability to care for both themselves and their families and neighborhoods is explainable by one factor and one factor on...
Oxalates and Migrants: a Metaphor on PJSC podcast
October 18, 2020 22:00 - 12 minutes - 8.52 MBAs illegal, unwanted migrants swarm across our borders, we can compare what happens to our country and civilization with what happens within our own bodies by bad interlopers. Just as our country has been being invaded for decades by demographically dissimilar to us peoples, destroying and overcrowding our systems of schooling, policing, health care, housing, and every other facet of our political system- so too has your body been invaded for many years by a bad chemical chiefly produced by...
The Carnivore Diet
October 01, 2020 00:00 - 12 minutes - 8.66 MBI just finished reading Paul Saladino’s well researched book The Carnivore Code. This is not an ‘easy read’ type of book, and that is just as well, since he goes into great detail on all of the why’s and wherefores of following the ultimate no carb diet. The reading is not easy or simple, since it is so deeply researched and explained, which is a strong plus for serious students of diet and nutrition. The author is very convincing in his arguments, and is also well spoken, as I have also...
Big Cities are Fatally Flawed on PaleoJays Smoothie Cafe
September 09, 2020 23:00 - 13 minutes - 9.29 MBWe now live in a time when all of our major cities are failing. We panic, wondering what is now different: why, oh why are New York city, Chicago, Detroit of course all failing, all such abhorrent places of crime, violence and mayhem? All bankrupt, and all being run by horrible governments that are hastening their decline??But we forget, all of us forget our own Western history- it has ever been thus. Indeed, part of our decline is caused by us no longer teaching and learning our own history...
Religion is in our DNA podcast
August 26, 2020 23:00 - 9 minutes - 6.76 MBIt’s strange: as paleo people, we believe that our diet evolved along with us, making us what we are. For instance, there has never, ever, been a vegetarian or vegan tribe or culture. Humans have always eaten animal products, some more than others, but ALL rely on the amazing nutrition in animal derived foods. Eating animals and products taken from animals made us what we are- you can’t take animals out of our evolution and arrive at modern humans. This is widely accepted amongst those w...

Build your Health and Avoid the Pandemic
August 03, 2020 21:00 - 11 minutes - 7.86 MBWith all the scare tactics circulated by the mainstream media, you would think that the coronavirus from China was the new Black Death! It’s not, not even close. Young children can catch it, but they barely get sick. It can kill older people, but here is a secret: unless you are already sick, sick as most Americans are with diabesity and all the attendant ills that come along with it- it is a very small threat to you as well! In other words, if you are someone who is a paleo person,...
The Scamdemic!

But, nowadays, our health is so tied to the politics all about us, that another part of my name, PaleoJay, is being brought to the fore- Paleo Politics, meaning an old fashioned type of political opinion. The idea that Western civilization is the highest form of life, and is indeed what is meant by ‘civil...

Exercise your FEET!
July 04, 2020 00:00 - 12 minutes - 8.73 MBIn this time of coronavirus alarm, lawless rioting, looting, and rampant mindless destruction, sometimes we have to be- well, more grounded. Hopefully you, like me, have found a safe, rural tribal homeland within your own country that is safe and civilized. If so, you are necessary in a rural area, far from large, modern, lawless and Democrat run cities! Congratulations, paleo friend. This is job #1 for you and your family. Safety and wellness always come first, and that means caring ...
Black Crimes Matter on PaleoJays Smoothie Cafe
June 17, 2020 01:00 - 15 minutes - 10.5 MBOh, so PaleoJay is racist? No. A race realist, perhaps. Races do differ, just as do different breeds of dogs. But, that is just common sense, or at least it used to be. Currently, we are embroiled in an endless war of ethnicities warring endlessly, sparring for dominance. It is so stupid really, overall. We should all be treated equally, totally and completely, under the law!! We live in the USA after all, a complete meritocracy, where excellence is rewarded, and crime is punished....
Your Forever Home podcast
June 09, 2020 00:00 - 11 minutes - 7.9 MBLet’s talk today about the notion of home. I notice that nowadays, when people talk about where they live, the inevitably talk about resale value, and even decorate and landscape and add improvements mainly with this in mind- RESALE value, as if what they sell their place for someday is far more important than actually making it more and more into their home- the place where they intend to stay, and where their family and friends, and indeed all the things that make them themselves is not...
All is Maintenance!
May 27, 2020 23:00 - 11 minutes - 8.22 MBWhen we think of important virtues in life, we think of things like goodness and honesty. Very general concepts indeed- helpful as far as they go, but so general as to be largely meaning almost anything at all if you think of it. I think what most of us struggle to understand is simply that life, overall, is about maintenance. If you make a promise, or resolve to do something, that is one thing. But it is the maintaining of that resolve, or promise, that really makes it happen, and solid...
Destress Yourself- in Nature! podcast
May 15, 2020 01:00 - 13 minutes - 9.19 MBFirst of all- my FIRST commercial break EVER in over 11 years on this podcast of ancestral, paleo health and ever evolving into more and more. http://www.jessthornton.org This is my author link, which is another career path of mine. Fantasy adventure stories mostly, but with strong political and health views throughout. Audio versions are now available for most- links to purchase books are on the website, as are links to free samples. Also, all of my books, both audio, ebook, and print ...
Civilization IS Western Civilization!
April 28, 2020 23:00 - 11 minutes - 7.96 MBIt turns out that actual knowledge is now Politically Incorrect! Sad but true. I remember back in the 1960’s (yes, I am old enough- 68- to remember those days well), when to be liberal, a college student say, wearing flowers and patched jeans, meant that protests were about free speech! While no hippy, I recognized the intellectual honesty and freedom of that notion of freedom of speech, and I concurred completely. They talked about the Vietnam war at the time, which Lyndon Johnson h...

Use the Coronavirus To Build a Better YOU!
April 05, 2020 18:00 - 9 minutes - 6.45 MBNever Let a Good Crisis go to Waste! That is the quote that has been used by so many on the Left for bad ideas and policies, but we can also use it positively, in our favor as ancestral living people. Most of us in what are called ‘non-essential’ jobs (as if any real work is ‘non-essential’, really) are now staying at home, only venturing forth for necessities. Although this is really painful for most of us (we are social beings after all), we can use this time in our favor! Instead of...
The Plague
March 25, 2020 21:00 - 7 minutes - 5.5 MBA plague had entered the land. Thousands were dying, and thousands upon thousands more would follow, unless it could be stopped. The wise doctors struggled to find a cure, but for now the only thing that would slow the wild spreading of the disease was for people to stay apart, to not allow the spreading of the virulent virus that rushed from person to person, spreading quick and sure death! But by staying at home, and apart, commerce perforce ended within the country, and the specter o...
A Virus that Doesn't Kill Us Makes Us Stronger PJSC podcast
March 18, 2020 22:00 - 7 minutes - 5.55 MBI spent today enjoying my social distancing! I got up early (as usual), and watched the morning news. Stock market way down, but stabilizing. I enjoy watching Maria Bartiroma (anyone else notice that she looks exactly like the young Sophia Loren?), and getting the gist of the events facing our nation. As I watched, I was exercising as I always do. My thoughts clarify if I am flexing and sculpting my body methodically as I watch. Disciplined thoughts flow from a disciplined body, I ha...
Rebuild your Face on PaleoJays Smoothie Cafe podcast
March 09, 2020 22:00 - 10 minutes - 7 MBIn health and wellness, much is made of building the muscles, and even ligaments and tendons of the body stronger and more healthy. This can be done by exercising correctly, ala Perfectly Paleo Exercise, where the body is briefly taxed near to its limits using isometrics, virtual resistance where the musculature is taxed by generating its own resistance. Isometrics, and calisthenics such as high rep or slow cadence pushups, pull-ups, sit-ups, etc. All of this is wonderful stuff, and goes a...
Work Out Like 4 Year Old on PaleoJays Smoothie Cafe podcast
February 21, 2020 22:00 - 13 minutes - 9.12 MBMost people work out all wrong! They get in their car, and drive to a gym to exercise. Or, if they have wised up over time- they skip all of that, and have a home gym setup at home, in their garage or basement. That is fine, and what I have done for many years; the idea of driving to a gym and working out is fine in high school or college, and is how I exercised throughout my early 20’s. It’s a good way to learn… Then, you work out on a regular schedule in your home gym. Weights in the...
Your Vegetables Want You Dead!
February 10, 2020 00:00 - 9 minutes - 6.65 MBI know: sad but true! Even broccoli, and to a greater extent the holy spinach wants to kill you and yours. Because they, just like any animal, want to survive. And, if you eat them, put them in salads, load your smoothie with them, or butter the grains that also want to kill you and eat them as toast- they will have their revenge! You may have heard this said before, but it seems we all forget it- animals have teeth and claws (to fight for survival) or else are fleet of foot (to flee fro...

Paleo Smoothie State of the Art
January 24, 2020 00:00 - 9 minutes - 6.37 MBOK. Smoothies get a bad rap from paleo circles; always have. Undeservedly, at least for the most part. Carnivore is cool, and I will admit it has a place, as does Keto. Both, in my mind, have a therapeutic use, meaning that in certain conditions and with certain autoimmune problems, they might be the perfect fit. But, for a lifelong diet- no. You want a diet heavy in plants, loaded with micronutrients, and above all- ancestral. The easiest way to to that nowadays, with our depleted so...

Big Cities are Now Dangerous Jungles
January 15, 2020 01:00 - 13 minutes - 9.67 MBSad but true! I want for you to go out into nature each and every day that you can, to immerse yourself into that environment from which we evolved, and to which we are ultimately best suited. To go out into the woods, to enjoy the solitude, and breeze ruffling your hair, while you traverse the natural ground as humans have done for millenia uncounted- this is to restore, to recharge both our minds, bodies and spirits. It is a kind of ‘reboot’ of our modern, hectic lives back into our nat...
Leftist Globalists are the Enemy of Your Tribe podcast
December 30, 2019 19:00 - 16 minutes - 11.4 MBWaste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one.” – Marcus Aurelius In the Western tradition of civilization, the chief hallmark is that of individual autonomy, meaning each free individual within that most successful of all tribes can speak their mind freely, and live as they see fit for themselves and their families! Throughout the vast majority of history, from culture after culture, tribe after tribe- the norm has been a KING. An elite person, surrounded by other elites...
Avoid Modern Witch Doctors- Do it Yourself podcast
December 19, 2019 22:00 - 9 minutes - 6.5 MBI don’t really mean to be provocative, but I must state the obvious: the awe in which many hold medical doctors is ridiculous. I see it constantly: doctors, and the medical clinics and hospitals that employ them, are so special and so necessary- Science brought to our lives! Nonsense. Most medical professionals know a very tiny amount about health. What they do know about is disease, and that is what they focus on. And what they do, when you come in to be examined, is basically run ove...
Responsibility is the Meaning of Your Life on PaleoJay's Smoothie Cafe
November 29, 2019 21:00 - 13 minutes - 9.52 MBWe live nowadays in a highly complex, interdependant Western civilization. This means that every person within that complex TRIBE needs to pull their own weight, and MORE! Only by such action have we built this amazing edifice where machinery works, where our huge cities used to work (more on that later), and science and progress continues onward, unabated. It is by adult men, primarily, realizing that their purpose in life is to work hard to assist others, and to stop those other men who...
Defend Borders, End Welfare, and Save Civilization on PaleoJays Smoothie Cafe podcast
November 14, 2019 21:00 - 11 minutes - 8.09 MBIn other words, don’t go down the same path as ancient Rome. Rome, which lasted roughly 1000 years, spent the first 500 as a republic of small landholders, who also took time off from their farms and shops to defend the country. They had a strong aversion to kings and other sorts of authoritarian rulers and governments, and pioneered the form of republicanism. This republic was a very efficient and effective government, and one which nourished freedom of speech and the individual. Free...
Be Your Own Batman on PaleoJays Smoothie Cafe podcast
October 28, 2019 23:00 - 9 minutes - 6.55 MBI know- this sounds like an extremely unlikely focus for a paleo podcast: you know, eating and living in accordance with our genetic programming, living ancestrally in the manner (as much as possible) in which we evolved. But bear with me… Aside from eating ancestrally (no grains, or at least very little and properly prepared ones like with sour dough ala Weston A. Price), adequate pastured meats, eggs, and dairy along with plenty of vegetables and some fruits like berries or citrus, and s...
Crucial Exercise You Ignore on PaleoJay's Smoothie Cafe
October 08, 2019 00:00 - 13 minutes - 9.26 MBYou should address each and every part of your body on a daily, or at least near-daily basis! For me, each day when I arise, I go through a brief limbering session right away, in the bathroom before going downstairs- rotating all of my joints, and gradually awakening with deep breathing and simple mobility movements. (I hesitate to call them ‘exercises’, since they are simple, easy, and enjoyable, taking a maximum of 2-3 minutes total). Next, downstairs, I brew my coffee, feed the cats, a...
Your MD is a Snake Oil Salesman podcast on PaleoJays Smoothie Cafe
September 23, 2019 23:00 - 11 minutes - 8.17 MBNow I don’t mean that all doctors are snake oil peddlers, showing up on your Main street with bottles of white lightning mixed with cocaine like they did in the old days… but, in many cases, not only are their many prescriptions often worthless, many are downright harmful. Just as were those of those snake oil salesmen doctors in the 1800’s! Now, Clark Stanley was an archetypal medicine man of the old Western era, and his oil was sold far and wide throughout the U.S. Now, the original ‘s...
Your DNA Defines Your Tribe
September 11, 2019 19:00 - 11 minutes - 7.66 MBIn this era of Globlaism and the idea that ‘we are all the same’, the realism of the ancestral lifestyle shows us how inaccurate such ideas really are. Our ethnic differences, in other words are true diversity in the type of human that we are defines us. If you are of European descent, for instance, or white Caucasion, you are a part of what is the smallest ethnic tribe on earth, and shrinking. Our birthrate is below replacement level, and growing smaller. The white ethnic tribe is get...

Paleo or Autoimmune Disease on Paleo Quick Tip of the Day podcast 11th year
August 25, 2019 20:00 - 14 minutes - 9.69 MBI really think your choice is just about this stark: either eat a paleo type of diet and practice an ancestral lifestyle- or get an autoimmune disease! I remember, back when I started changing my diet and lifestyle to paleo. I cut out grains entirely, and started making a green smoothie to drink on a daily basis. My first Vitamix blender was an old one, stainless steel, and lasted me for a number of years. Now I have a late model one, and I recommend this blender as a cornerstone investm...
Don't Downsize! on Paleo Quick Tip of the Day podcast
August 15, 2019 16:00 - 11 minutes - 8.01 MBYour own PaleoJay is 67 years old. Basically, I do everything I did at younger ages, but now I have the luxury of more free time to do what I want. I always knew the crucial importance of sleep, but I usually could only manage 8 hours during my working years, which was adequate for me- but now, I have determined that 9 hours is ideal. That amount of sleep leaves me feeling energized and refreshed for the day, raring to go if you will. I love being retired, with only hobbies like paleo ...
Be a Hero on Paleojay's Smoothie Cafe
August 07, 2019 00:00 - 11 minutes - 7.85 MB‘I hate luxury. I exercise moderation…It will be easy to forget your vision and purpose once you have fine clothes, fast horses and beautiful women. [In which case], you will be no better than a slave, and you will surely lose everything.’ That quote is from Genghis Khan. Now, he is no hero to me, but still his words ring with truth. Whatever Genghis was, he certainly was successful! He conquered the largest land mass in all of history; he was kind of an Eastern Alexander the great. I...
Gain Maximum Strength in 10 MInutes per Day on Paleo Quick Tip of the Day podcast
July 27, 2019 23:00 - 10 minutes - 7.36 MBThis is not a misprint or a mistaken statement: you can indeed gain your own ultimate strength potential in 10 minutes per day! I mean that sincerely. Now, it won’t bulk you up like Arnold Schwarzenegger, but it WILL make you as strong as you, given your own frame and bodyweight, can be. In FACT, this protocol will make you extremely ripped and lean, and strong beyond what anyone would ever suspect! Now, doesn’t that sound about perfect, really? Who really wants to bulk up, especiall...
Leftist Globalist Elitists are the Enemy of Ancestral Living on PaleoJays Smoothie Cafe podcast
July 19, 2019 22:00 - 13 minutes - 9.3 MBhttp://www.paleojay.com Yes, history does repeat itself, over and over. The details are very, very different throughout time, but the gist of it remains the same: Self styled elites, which in ancient days meant Kings and Emperors, Warlords and Dictators- they are constantly trying to control, to micromanage, to tell everyone else how to live, and what to do- endlessly! These fake “leaders” will order us around endlessly, unless we stop them. In Western Civilization, this has been one o...
Bread CAN be Healthy! On Paleo Quick Tip of the Day podcast
July 11, 2019 22:00 - 10 minutes - 7.22 MBThere, I said it- bread can actually be good for you! I can scarcely believe that I actually said that, but there it is. Properly prepared bread, meaning a true, made from sour dough starter, can be a worthwhile addition to your paleo diet, but it needs to be a true sour dough bread. This means a bread that is risen without commercial yeast, and without any other addititives such as sugar, oils, ‘bread conditioners’, and the like! One theory is that the use of conventional, GMO grains (t...
I Live in a Virtual White Ethnostate: I Admit it- Do YOU? on PaleoJays Smoothie Cafe
July 02, 2019 21:00 - 14 minutes - 9.83 MBAs a matter of fact, most people choose to self-segregate. This is both blacks, and whites. I’m sure it is also as true amongst other races, but there is no more stark contrast in the USA as that between those two most opposite races as black and white. This is despite the fact that these races have dwelt together in north America for hundreds of years! What can be the problem, after all of this time?? Let’s go back to Paleo 101: mankind is an evolved creature. This is the foundation...

June 28, 2019 00:00 - 9 minutes - 6.37 MBReligion! So Medieval, right? Well, yes- and ancient, and paleolithic, and well- every other time bar none! Religion is baked into our DNA! You can be ‘trendy’, you can deny it completely: but you really can’t, not really. Neanderthals had a religion, possibly moon worship, but we can’t be sure. They certainly laid their departed to rest, bedecked with flowers for the next world). What we can be certain about is that any people who denied a higher power (think NAZI’s and COMMUNIST’S)...
