Former Minnesota governor and conspiracy theory enthusiast Jesse Ventura detailed his current whereabouts Tuesday in perhaps the most Jesse Ventura way possible.

“I’m off the grid. I move about with my TV show so that the drones can’t find me and you won’t know exactly where I am as long as we have solar power and we can reach the satellite,” Ventura said during an appearance on CNBC’s “Closing Bell.”

“I view the United States today much like East Berlin. And I’m off the grid. I’ve tried for 20 years to warn the country about the Democrats and Republicans and nobody’s listening from the inside looking out. Now I’m doing it on the outside looking in. I now view the United States from the outside and I don’t like what I see.”

According to Politico, Ventura said he was doing the interview from an “undisclosed location in Mexico.” He was promoting his OraTV show called — you guessed it — “Off The Grid.”
