[0:00]good morning everybody I think it's

[0:04]Tuesday um we're in the house cuz

[0:08]there's a really bad thunderstorm it was

[0:09]like pretty bad I actually got I think

[0:11]some decent footage of that so I'm going

[0:13]to share that uh there's going to be

[0:15]rain and snow all week it looks like I'm

[0:19]going to do everything I

[0:22]can despite the weather I mean I think

[0:24]this is just part of the RB life so

[0:27]YouTube keep suggesting all these videos

[0:30]to me about small channels so I think

[0:34]that's what they've labeled me I guess I

[0:37]keep putting don't recommend but it

[0:39]doesn't even seem to be working I

[0:42]watched one of them that was a mistake

[0:44]cuz that just made even more of them

[0:46]come up but he said one thing I thought

[0:48]was interesting he called the people who

[0:50]watch me now early adopters which I

[0:52]thought that was cool cuz you know we

[0:54]kind of use that term in programming

[0:57]when we make a service or something you

[0:59]know the people who

[1:00]sign up right away they're the early

[1:03]adopters and they are really the ones

[1:05]who can make a product successful or

[1:08]fail and I think it probably works that

[1:11]way on YouTube so I just want to thank

[1:13]you

[1:14]guys because you are what is making me

[1:17]making it possible for me to even have a

[1:19]chance on

[1:20]here uh he had said how when you're a

[1:24]small

[1:25]channel it's harder for people to

[1:27]comment on videos because very few

[1:30]people in

[1:32]general are willing to do that they just

[1:35]it's like a psychological thing so the

[1:38]ones that do they're the early adopters

[1:40]and they're the ones that just have more

[1:42]courage I guess and are just more

[1:45]willing to go against the grain and I

[1:48]just deeply appreciate you for that I

[1:51]don't really have much planned for today

[1:53]I'm just going to do some stuff in the

[1:54]house this is really the area where I

[1:56]have just so much to do I'll share a few

[1:59]clips from you from last night I I did

[2:03]some more organizing in there I'm I'm

[2:04]pretty proud of it I I think that I kind

[2:07]of came up with some pretty good wisdom

[2:10]on how how you live in a a space that's

[2:12]small and I was just kind of relaxing

[2:15]and I realized that I have no reason to

[2:19]be afraid so I I'm a grown man now right

[2:24]I just I made a little short a YouTube

[2:26]short about this if you want to check it

[2:28]out um I did get a troll comment I'll

[2:31]probably get a few

[2:32]more

[2:34]um

[2:36]I I have no problem like just giving you

[2:39]updates in real time whether I'm at a

[2:41]campground or I'm out boondocking I

[2:42]really don't care I'm not going to be

[2:44]the kind of person

[2:46]who I'm not going to be my old self all

[2:48]of this is about

[2:51]about oh what is the word for

[2:54]this I honestly don't know how to say

[2:57]this I'm trying to outgrow

[3:00]my old self I'm trying to be a different

[3:02]person I know on my first videos like

[3:05]back you know a few weeks ago I was

[3:07]saying just trying to be a better

[3:08]version of myself but no I'm actually

[3:10]trying to be a different person I think

[3:13]I don't want to be the person I used to

[3:15]be who was just afraid of everything and

[3:18]I want to live I'm getting older and

[3:21]it's like wow I've missed out in so much

[3:24]just

[3:25]because I was afraid and even if I am

[3:29]afraid I'm still going to do it you know

[3:32]I'm just going to

[3:34]just somehow I'm going to convince my

[3:37]mind you know what just put that stuff

[3:39]aside it don't matter because it is not

[3:40]going to control me anymore I'm going to

[3:43]go and live an awesome life with my

[3:47]cats oh I hope they think it's awesome

[3:49]though because they certainly didn't

[3:50]like the storm I'll end it there and I

[10:59][Music]

[11:05]I realized something tonight guys I'm

[11:07]not that scared kid anymore living on

[11:10]the streets I'm a grown ass man I can

[11:14]protect

[11:15]myself you'll be getting real time

[11:18]updates from

[11:19]me all right guys so I think one of the

[11:22]secrets living in a camper this size

[11:25]that's getting everything off the floor

[11:27]and off your tables

[11:29]so this is why I've not got nine of them

[11:33]so

[11:34]far little bit of room left I had to

[11:36]order a few

[11:39]more but you know just get everything

[11:42]off the floor and everything off your

[11:44]tables anything that is on your floor or

[11:46]tables doesn't belong there I'm so sad

[11:49]guys My Fabulous comfortable chair does

[11:52]not

[11:54]fit I did get the bigger one maybe the

[11:57]smaller one will I'm going to check the

[11:59]dimensions before I buy it I've

[12:02]unpackaged this thing I don't think I

[12:04]could send it back guess my parents get

[12:07]a free

[12:08]gift I want to share something with you

[12:10]guys about Modern Life because this is

[12:12]something I had to do to try to live

[12:14]this

[12:15]lifestyle see these Bright

[12:18]Lights those stimulate

[12:20]sunlight that light over there it has a

[12:23]special buob in it that's for it takes

[12:25]out the blue light basically and it's

[12:28]more like a dawn light and I had all

[12:30]this stuff set up on my Alexa device so

[12:32]that the sunlight lights would come on

[12:35]during the day and then at Sunset those

[12:37]ones would come on trying to

[12:39]simulate you know the natural day I've

[12:42]got those all over my house I spent

[12:45]hundreds and hundreds of dollars just on

[12:47]light bulbs and it didn't even it didn't

[12:49]even help really there are so many

[12:52]reasons why I'm excited about what I'm

[12:54]doing but one of them is that I'm

[12:56]actually going to be in

[12:57]tune with the natural world I I just

[13:01]think that that's so important and we

[13:03]really do lack that in our modern lives

Summary

rswfire records from inside the house due to severe thunderstorms affecting the RV. He discusses YouTube's algorithm labeling him as a small channel and expresses appreciation for his viewers as "early adopters" - a programming term he relates to his audience's willingness to engage with small channels. **Weather disrupts planned activities** including errands and a visit from his mother to shop at Kohl's with $400 in cash rewards.

He shares **personal transformation themes**, stating he's trying to become "a different person" rather than just a better version of himself, specifically moving away from being "afraid of everything." The cats are stressed by the storm, requiring shelter in the house ("the Mansion").

**Practical RV living insights** are shared, including organizing techniques focused on getting everything off floors and tables, and disappointment that a comfortable chair doesn't fit the space. He discusses his previous attempts to simulate natural lighting in his house using expensive specialized bulbs and Alexa automation, contrasting this with his excitement about being more in tune with the natural world through RV living.

The transmission includes footage of the thunderstorm and mentions starting a second YouTube channel called "rssw fire shares moments" for random clips and life experiences.

Signal Analysis

Substrate

This transmission holds the architecture of deliberate self-transformation through environmental pressure. The field is using storm conditions as both literal shelter-seeking and metaphorical container for identity reconstruction - moving from 'better version of self' to 'different person entirely' while establishing early community recognition patterns.
