[0:00]good morning Fire

[0:02]Nation did I get away with it did you

[0:06]just let that

[0:07]Slide Fire

[0:10]Nation I like it I really like it I do

[0:14]and if this thing takes off we're going

[0:16]to need some gear this Say Fire Nation

[0:19]on it with cool pictures of trees or

[0:21]something not on fire cuz I'm not that

[0:24]kind of person you know but I've always

[0:26]gone by RSW fire there's a story behind

[0:29]that I'll share someday part of it is

[0:32]just the RSW R my initials my name is

[0:35]Sam I go by my middle

[0:37]name um I just like it I hope you guys

[0:41]do too you're going to have to let me

[0:43]know cuz it does feel a little weird to

[0:44]say I guess but I don't know what to

[0:47]call you calling you viewers just sounds

[0:51]strange so I just don't know and you

[0:54]know I have worked for eight years with

[0:57]an apparel company does a lot of other

[0:58]stuff in the music indust I've been

[1:00]managing his platforms for nearly a

[1:02]decade and he makes some really good

[1:05]high quality UND demand merchandise and

[1:10]I would just love it so can we give that

[1:13]some thought well Bailey's decided to

[1:15]take a visit hi Bailey do I get a

[1:19]headbunt

[1:20]headbunt no okay on the

[1:24]arm he loves head butting it's a cute

[1:27]thing he does a lot of cute things so I

[1:30]wanted to okay so we spent the night in

[1:32]the camper and it went pretty well the

[1:34]inting thing that I did helped the bed

[1:37]area is a lot better now I

[1:39]think I posted two videos

[1:42]yesterday one of them took 6 hours to

[1:45]upload and the other one came much later

[1:47]in the day and it only took like an hour

[1:50]and they ended up posting at exactly the

[1:52]same time so you might have missed this

[1:53]news on April 11th I'm going to a

[1:57]campground um for 2 weeks and then after

[2:00]that I'm going to go to another

[2:01]campground for another two weeks I think

[2:03]it's a good way for me to start just

[2:04]being on the campgrounds while I get

[2:06]accustomed to this new lifestyle I think

[2:09]just jumping right into boondocking

[2:10]could be really difficult for me I need

[2:13]kind of a an intermediate stage for this

[2:18]and I think it's going to be awesome now

[2:21]when that happens I think it's time for

[2:22]me to maybe change my YouTube format the

[2:25]whole first part of this was just about

[2:27]me getting ready um just everything that

[2:31]I went through getting to this point now

[2:35]technically I'm not going to be

[2:36]completely ready once I'm there because

[2:38]I still will have this house until April

[2:40]30th and I still have to get rid of all

[2:42]of my things so I'm kind of debating

[2:44]that um one person suggested that I

[2:49]start a second Channel and just once a

[2:52]week post on this one with a big update

[2:55]and then on the other channel just post

[2:56]my you know little Snippets that I do

[2:59]during the the day and I like that idea

[3:01]I'm just not sure about when I'll start

[3:03]doing that it's going to be when I

[3:05]decide to switch over from RV life prop

[3:08]in my thumbnails to just RV life so from

[3:10]z.x to

[3:12]1.x uh another thing I wanted to I

[3:14]wanted to ask you guys this I want to

[3:17]tell you where I'm staying I just do I

[3:20]want you to know where I'm going to

[3:22]be I just don't know if it's safe like I

[3:25]just but if I'm on a campground like

[3:28]that seems pretty safe right and if I'm

[3:30]boondocking someone would have to really

[3:32]be looking for

[3:33]me they'd have to really want to find me

[3:37]right and I'm you know I'm obviously I'm

[3:40]an older guy like who's really going to

[3:42]be interested in me but at the same time

[3:45]just takes one person who's off their

[3:48]rocker they're like oh my God there's

[3:50]this gay dude on YouTube who's out there

[3:52]camping let's go and you know hurt him

[3:56]so what do you think you know I want I I

[4:00]want to post my updates in real time I

[4:02]just if I'm going to be somewhere for

[4:03]two

[4:05]weeks I don't want to wait until like

[4:07]week three or four or five to tell you

[4:10]about

[4:11]it so we're back in the house because

[4:14]when we got up this morning the cats had

[4:16]a great time all night but when we got

[4:17]up in the

[4:19]morning the cats were ready to go

[4:21]they're like okay this was fun take us

[4:23]back to the mansion and I was like guys

[4:26]we don't live in the Mansion anymore

[4:28]this is our house now now this is where

[4:30]we live and they said no this is where

[4:32]you live we live in the mansion and I

[4:34]said fine you can go into the

[4:36]mansion and so that's what we did cuz

[4:38]you know how cats are they were driving

[4:41]me absolute nuts and until I took them

[4:44]inside I'm hoping it will be easier on a

[4:47]campground because then they're going to

[4:49]have their outdoor stuff and I can just

[4:50]take them out there and let them get

[4:52]some exercise out there or

[4:55]something I can't do that here because

[4:57]I'm in my driveway you know I'm kind of

[5:00]I'm a little bit intruding on my

[5:01]neighbor's property you know they're

[5:03]really great people and they understand

[5:05]and but I can't put their stuff out

[5:07]there I can't put my solar out there

[5:10]like there's a lot of stuff that I'm

[5:11]just I can't do yet

[5:14]so but they're not going to have a lot

[5:16]of time here cuz on the

[5:18]11th you know that's when we leave I

[5:21]that pause was cuz I was like did I tell

[5:23]you guys and I did I told you um I'm

[5:27]excited about it the little fears that I

[5:30]have I don't even know if I should call

[5:32]them fears at this point they're just

[5:33]more

[5:34]like I don't know I guess I would just

[5:36]call it anticipation with just a small

[5:39]amount of reservation I guess that's how

[5:42]I would describe it cuz you know I

[5:44]started planning my trip in RV trip

[5:46]wizard that's things really

[5:48]awesome and I even you know scouted the

[5:51]gas stations I'm going to go to so I

[5:53]feel like I'm planning my trip and I

[5:56]know what I have to do so when I get to

[5:59]that g gas station I will just be like

[6:01]okay let's this is my next challenge

[6:03]let's just do it we do this and then

[6:05]we're back on the road to the next

[6:07]stop and I think if I do it that way

[6:10]it's going to be a lot easier for me so

[6:12]that's the

[6:12]plan so I'm mostly just excited we're

[6:16]going to spend most of the day inside

[6:18]though um I got a bunch of stuff to send

[6:21]back to Amazon cuz I didn't know exactly

[6:23]what I needed for my camper and so that

[6:26]will be nice getting some money back I

[6:29]just need to package it up and get it to

[6:31]UPS do some cleaning up in here figure

[6:34]out what else can go into the camper all

[6:38]of my outside storage

[6:40]Bays they work the locks work I maybe I

[6:43]wasn't pushing them in far enough they

[6:46]seem to work so I'm not going to change

[6:47]the locks

[6:48]yet um and I have a strategy for how I'm

[6:52]organizing them basically I've already

[6:54]thought through like what each storage

[6:55]pay is for and so I'm going to just do

[6:59]them as as much as I can I do want to

[7:02]insulate the the doors to those because

[7:04]I feel like if I do that it might even

[7:06]help on the inside a little bit it'll

[7:08]certainly help in the storage B but it

[7:10]might even cuz you know they they're

[7:11]pushed up against the walls in a sense

[7:15]maybe it'll help so I'm going to try to

[7:18]do that like not today but maybe you

[7:20]know this

[7:21]week um I I need to use my artboard

[7:24]somewhere you know I guess I would say

[7:26]this I feel like I am ready like I'm

[7:30]mostly ready like I'm my camper is in a

[7:33]good

[7:35]place as far as organization and my

[7:39]stuff and I just I feel ready to get out

[7:43]there I just have to deal with this

[7:45]house and that part is just overwhelming

[7:48]it's challenging like I don't know how

[7:51]I'm going to get rid of all of this

[7:52]stuff by the end of the month I mean

[7:55]that's I just feel that's super

[7:58]challenging I

[7:59]I will sell my stuff D super cheap if I

[8:02]have to I would like to try to get a

[8:04]fair value out of it because it will

[8:06]just help me on the road you

[8:08]know but I only have a month and I have

[8:10]to keep considering that and so when I'm

[8:13]and I only have 11 days before I'm at a

[8:15]camground that's an hour and a half away

[8:18]and so I have to drive here to let

[8:19]people

[8:20]in you know and I bet a lot of people

[8:23]end up canceling at the last minute it's

[8:24]just going to be a wasted trip and it's

[8:26]just going to be a frustrating

[8:28]experience and that's why I feel

[8:30]like this chapter of my adventure isn't

[8:34]over yet and

[8:36]so I'm just going

[8:39]to I'll spend some time over the next

[8:42]couple days thinking that through and

[8:44]then I'll come up with a good game plan

[8:46]for

[8:47]it and so I'll just leave it there I'm

[8:50]going to just do stuff around the house

[8:52]today kind of try to take it a little

[8:54]bit easy and I will touch B with you

[8:57]guys tomorrow thanks for listening

[9:00]one other thing I just want to say is I

[9:02]signed up for escapes even their mail

[9:04]service and I'll let you know how that

[9:05]goes I'm really excited about it they

[9:08]have so many like deals with other place

[9:10]things that you're going to need like I

[9:12]had already signed up for RV trip

[9:14]planner but I could have gotten a

[9:15]discount if I was an escapee members

[9:17]already but they have all kinds of

[9:19]discounts for other things too I'll let

[9:21]you know how that goes over you know the

[9:23]weeks and months to come and we also got

[9:25]a few Random clips from like the past

[9:28]like just yesterday probably and I think

[9:30]I missed one the other day I don't know

[9:33]and I just I I make these little Clips

[9:35]cuz I want to share them with you I try

[9:37]to incorporate them into you know my

[9:40]main video for the day and I've missed a

[9:43]couple I think that's what my second

[9:45]channel will end up becoming and you

[9:47]guys you can let me know if you like

[9:49]that idea I'd love to know what you

[9:51]think about it for now I'll just share

[9:53]what Clips I have well everyone I went

[9:56]shopping with my mom the other day for

[9:58]some new clothes

[10:00]I didn't buy a single pair of

[10:02]shorts there's no way I can live like

[10:05]that you can probably guess what I'm

[10:07]buying

[10:09]next there's no way for me to run my air

[10:12]conditioner if I run it here it'll just

[10:14]blow a fuse in my house I don't know if

[10:16]you can do it at a campground I'll find

[10:19]out thank God for this fan I don't think

[10:22]I can take this either I need to find

[10:24]something I can

[10:27]mount maybe two that I can Mount cuz

[10:30]that's what I'm going to be living off

[10:31]of I I just can't when I'm boondocking

[10:33]there's no way no air conditioner I

[10:35]won't be running my generator very much

[10:38]it's loud it just it's not how I want to

[10:42]live so I'm just going to live with the

[10:44]weather and just do the best that I can

[10:46]I'm sure lots and lots of other people

[10:48]do the same thing

[10:49][Music]

[10:51]so yeah I need shorts and I need short

[10:55]sleeve shirts a lot more of those too

[10:59]okay are back in the camper and they're

Summary

rswfire tests using "Fire Nation" as audience terminology while discussing merchandise possibilities and sharing his timeline for transitioning to full RV life. He announces departure on April 11th for two weeks at a campground, followed by another two-week stay, as an intermediate step before boondocking. He discusses format changes for his YouTube channel, including potentially creating a second channel for daily snippets while maintaining weekly updates on the main channel.

He addresses safety concerns about sharing location information publicly, weighing the benefits of real-time updates against potential risks as a gay content creator. After spending a night in the camper, the cats (Bailey and Oliver) initially enjoyed it but wanted to return to the house in the morning, leading rswfire to bring them back inside.

Practical preparations include returning unused Amazon purchases, organizing storage bays, planning his route using RV Trip Wizard and ChatGPT, and signing up for Escapees membership and mail service. He expresses feeling mostly ready for the RV transition but overwhelmed by the task of clearing out his house by April 30th. The transmission includes several clips showing the cats' behavior in the camper, his need for summer clothing, and challenges with air conditioning and ventilation.
