This is 67 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: a fact. And probably my house down there in the 68 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: Outer Banks is a smoking pit because I had two 69 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: Special Forces guys who haven't seen a lot of time. 70 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: One of them is just like my brother, and they 71 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: were there the whole week.

So 76 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: the big thing going on tonight, Actually it's the release 77 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: party for Brandon Wive's book, The Killing School. I was 78 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: at the UM, I was at the book signing at 79 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: Barnes and Noble tribecat yesterday. Awesome meeting all the listeners 80 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: in this show. Plenty of people who are becoming members, 81 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: and so for those who aren't in the know, this 82 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: is our members only show that we're doing. We're doing 83 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: two shows a week now and we're giving all of 84 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: you a preview of this on on Facebook Live, and 85 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: we figured who better than Terry Shapherd to kick it off. Um. So, 86 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: like I said, I don't know where you want to begin. 87 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: You just came back from South Korea and you wrote 88 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: an article about it, So I figured we can get 89 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: into that first. Yeah, what happened over there? Jack? You 90 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: have you have a bit of a thousand yards stare 91 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: right now. Nothing, nothing happened over there. I mean, well, 92 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: I was in South Korea for like three days, and 93 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: before that, I was in the Philippines for two weeks. 94 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: So the purpose of the trip was to go over 95 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 1: and interface with the Filipino Special Operations guys. UM. So 96 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: I met with NAVSAG, which is like their version of 97 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: Naval Special Warfare. Um, they're scout rangers, special forces like 98 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 1: Reaction Regiment, the Marine Force recon guys, the other Marines, 99 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: UM geez, who else the Special Action Force Police Unit. 100 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 1: So I got to kind of go all over the place, 101 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: meet all kinds of different people. UM. Probably did recorded 102 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: twelve hours of interviews, UM, all kinds of stuff, and 103 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: then shot over to South Korea and UM, the original 104 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,679 Speaker 1: point behind that trip was to go visit Special Forces 105 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: detachment Korea and UH over there in part of Core. 106 00:05:58,240 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: But that kind of that kind of fell through because 107 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: as they didn't want to do media right now, or 108 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 1: or the Combined Forces Command didn't want to do media 109 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: because of rising tensions on the peninsula. UH So, then 110 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: the next thing was to try to go visit the 111 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: de Militarized Zone and the j s A, the Joint 112 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: Security Area where they do like the joint talks with 113 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: North Korea and all that. That was shut down again 114 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 1: because of tensions. So I ended up going to Shrwan, 115 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: which is another part. It's interesting. It was actually above 116 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: the thirty parallel, so Korea split into in U when 117 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: we took the peninsula Austin. The Russians took it from 118 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 1: the Japanese after the Japanese Imperial Army quickly collapsed because 119 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They collapsed faster than anyone thought 120 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: they would, so that drew the border the thirty parallel. 121 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: Five years later, nineteen fifty, the Korean War happens, and 122 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: uh South Korea lost some territory to the south, but 123 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 1: they also gained some territory in the north. So this 124 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: area of Shiwan is actually sort of a basin, a 125 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: flat area that's um they farmed for rice and that 126 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: area was fought over pretty extensively. There's actually a Communist 127 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: Party headquarters there that I got to visit, and you 128 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: can see up the cement steps there's two. It looks 129 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: like a little earthquake went up the steps. It's from 130 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: an American tank driving up the steps of the Communist 131 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: Party headquarters. Yeah, we like to leave marks where. Yeah, 132 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: there's bullet holes everywhere. So I went there. I saw 133 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: the d m Z and got to go into a 134 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: U one of there's four tunnels that have been uncovered 135 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: in the seventies and eighties, UH tunnels one through four 136 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: they've come to be known. And their North Korean infiltration 137 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: tunnels that were dug under the d m Z into 138 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: South Korea. And and for those layman's which I am 139 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: one of which I had to look it up. So 140 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: d d m Z Demilitarized Zones because I was checking 141 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: out in your as part of the Arms Arms Justice 142 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: after the Noman's Land between North and South Korea. Basically, yeah, 143 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: I was checking out the article you did, which people 144 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: could check out on the site on Soft rep UH 145 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: and which is called Softwrep Editor in chief Jack Murphy 146 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: reports from the Korean DMC And you took some awesome 147 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: pictures out there in um in the caves and the 148 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: tunnels as well. Yeah. Yeah, that camera. I'm no photographer 149 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: by any means, but the camera that Nick ca Hill 150 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: hooked us up with, it does its own thing, um 151 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: and enables idiots like me to take semi decent pictures. UM. 152 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: So yeah, I went down in that infiltration tunnel that 153 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: was tunnel number two. UM. Got some good pictures in there. 154 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: And that tunnel actually, so it runs all the way 155 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: to North Korea. It's three and a half kilometers long. 156 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: Obviously I didn't go, and people do not go to 157 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: North Korea and that tunnel there's a gate and everything 158 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: like that security. Is there a gate under in the 159 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: middle of that tunnel underneath like once they busted that tunnel, 160 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: do they do they seal it off underneath where like 161 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: you could go to about underneath the ground where North 162 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 1: Korea starts or is it like what's it like when 163 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 1: you get to Yeah, it just goes and then it 164 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: stops at at a gate like an iron gate. And 165 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: that's kind of like where the d m Z is 166 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: so I have to believe there's some part of this store. 167 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: I wasn't getting though, like they could not have just 168 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: left that tunnel open. That doesn't seem right and just 169 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: put a gate there. No, that doesn't seem right. Well. 170 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: I also was reading that there's tons more that we 171 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: don't know about, right, I mean, if there's four, so 172 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: there's more that's interesting because there's a there's rumors. I 173 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: guess you could say that there's as many as times 174 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: that every brigade on the border on the d m 175 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: Z has its own filtration tunnel. Um. Tunnel number so 176 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: the one I was in was big enough you could 177 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: single file put soldiers through there. They could walk through 178 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: their except that Koreans are shorter than we are, so 179 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: they make us wear helmets and you bang your head 180 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: at the whole time, the whole time, the whole time. Um. 181 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: But tunnel number four was wide enough you could drive 182 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 1: like a jeep there. Yeah. Um. So how many tunnels 183 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:44,079 Speaker 1: are undiscovered? Who knows? But these days the other issue 184 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: two is the tunnels might be obsolete because if war 185 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,079 Speaker 1: did break out, they could just detonate an atomic device 186 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: on the d m Z and the around all the 187 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: defenses and then the troops storm across. Is there a 188 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: vibe there the visa via the South and obviously that's 189 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 1: where we were. Can you feel attention when you're walking around? 190 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: Is it? See? I mean, I know, you know you 191 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: haven't been there before. You've been there before, so you 192 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to compare to that. Was curious what 193 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: it's like or if it's like kind of almost like 194 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 1: another day imparative. I'll tell you. For the South Koreans, 195 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: it's just like another day. That's I think, like things 196 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: are blowing up in the media over here and people 197 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: are freaking out about it, but for them, they're like 198 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,199 Speaker 1: desensitized and jaded to be dealing with it. Yeah whatever, 199 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: you know. Um yeah, they're used to it. And that 200 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: doesn't mean that there aren't some things happening or that 201 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 1: I shouldn't be taken seriously. But it also isn't, um 202 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: quite the crisis. They're not jumping through hoops right now. 203 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: It's not it's not like the crisis scenario that the 204 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: American news. Yeah yeah, they're making it sound like guys 205 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 1: are just looking right across it. It's it's the same 206 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: stuff about to pop off at at any moment. Now. Yeah, 207 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: the Odissean actually recently wrote an article and we talked 208 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: about this on the first Members Only podcast, just the 209 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 1: attitude in around North Korea and surrounding North Korea. And 210 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: in his article he basically said North Korea is not 211 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: such a big threat to the US or Japan. We 212 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: should be a little bit more worried about the threat 213 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: to South Korea. Of course, how what what is the 214 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: fear there? Like, how could you describe the attitude knowing 215 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: that their neighbors have a dictator who's threatening to obliterate that. 216 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, it's not something when I when I 217 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: was in South Korea, and when I was in Seoul, 218 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: I went out to like this like hipster container place 219 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: that they turned into like cool clothing stores, and they 220 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: had like beer tasting and it's all young people out. 221 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: Remember if you're if you're you know, our age or 222 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: even a little older, you grew up like this. There's 223 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: no memory of a of a United Korea. There's no 224 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 1: living memory of the Korean War. If you're thirty years old, 225 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: you grew up, you had a pretty good life. You know, 226 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,679 Speaker 1: your parents worked really hard. They brought that country from 227 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: abject poverty to being the tiger of Asia. So you 228 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 1: had life pretty good as a young person um nowadays. 229 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,439 Speaker 1: So I don't think it's something that's forefront in their 230 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: mind at all. What was more on their mind at 231 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: that time was the recent election, uh that Moon got elected, 232 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: and that that was something that was a concern for them. 233 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: But I don't think that they're walking around thinking about 234 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 1: North Korea now. Of course it is a threat. Um. 235 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: The threat is CBRN, the chemical, radiological, biological nuclear is 236 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: one thing. The other is artillery. If something were to happen, 237 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: the North Koreans could push down the soul, they probably 238 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 1: would take soul and the whole it would be a 239 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 1: chemical environment. There'd be all kinds of nerve gas and 240 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: everything else um being used. Because the North Koreans don't 241 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: have a lot of money, they can't maintain a conventional 242 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: military quite the way we do. I mean, yeah, they 243 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: have a million conscripts. Okay, it's a big military, but 244 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: they're not gonna have all the big ticket items of 245 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: tanks and the fighter jets that we have. So there's 246 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: gonna be a it's more of an asymmetrical threat. They're 247 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: gonna use the w M d stuff. Yeah, there's like 248 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: the tunnels and saboteurs, uh, you know, people wearing civilian clothing, uh, 249 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 1: sabotaging military installations and all that kind of nasty stuf. Mean, 250 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: North Korea can't feed its people. So from a from 251 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: a point of view of the military, and we saw this. 252 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: You know, I'm older than you guys, when when we 253 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 1: broke the Soviets, it was it was the same thing. 254 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: You know, that we had this idea that this was 255 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 1: unbeatable military at some point, but their economy could not 256 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: they couldn't support it. And you know, and that's what 257 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: Reagan knew. It wasn't he knew we didn't have to 258 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: nuke them or I mean, he took the risk, but 259 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: he just basically outcompeted them and they just got beat 260 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: I don't think I was just care about this too, 261 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,319 Speaker 1: because whenever I read and it's funny because North Korea 262 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: pops up in the news when it pops up, and 263 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: I always think when I see anything any story with 264 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: North Korea, I just substitute China because I feel like 265 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: they're kind of like Korea's pitbull maybe where I think China. 266 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 1: I don't think China would let them do this. I don't, 267 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think China wants them to do 268 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: the stuff they say. Now, it doesn't mean he wouldn't 269 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: do it, but I think if China does that, if 270 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 1: he if that, if he did do that, that's a 271 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: big meal ticket problem for China, because you know what 272 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean the Chinese. The Chinese are business guys, 273 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: and they don't want that for all of the regional players. 274 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: They have a vested interest unfortunately and maintaining the status 275 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: quo exactly for just what the reason you said that 276 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: North Korea would be a tremendous economic burden on that 277 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 1: entire region. You can only imagine the um not just 278 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: the poverty, lack of development, and the psychological trauma that 279 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: generations of North Koreans have been under. Integrating reunification be 280 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: a very very painful process. The interesting thing you mentioned 281 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: China is that China and North Korea both have a 282 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: similar agenda but for different reasons, and that they would 283 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: both like America out of South Korea. North Korea because 284 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: they see their only chance at reunifying the peninsula under 285 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: the Kim family regime is to take is to get 286 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: America out of there then they would extensibly in their mind, 287 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: have a shot, and I would think our policy I 288 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: would I always thought that it might. It would be 289 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: what we would like to see is a unified Korea 290 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 1: on our end, but also that would also be an 291 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: economic drain. Is almost like, you know, reuniting Germany. Maybe 292 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm not that smart on it. From 293 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: from the sources I talked to that they have a 294 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: real issue that they feel out the United States and 295 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: the other players involved, including South Korea, China, all the others, 296 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: are not prepared for reunification. The issue is that it 297 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: could happen very rapidly. Um the Kim family could go collapse, 298 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: Kim jongan could be assassinated, all sorts of different things 299 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: could happen internally in North Korea, but they couldn't handle 300 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: a cast that have nothing to do with America or 301 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: South Korea. Could be an internal collapse and then we 302 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: have to respond and deal with that. And the people 303 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: I talked to at least feel that we're not anywhere 304 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 1: for that, We're out of that, that we're not ready 305 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: for it. So what do you think is gonna happen 306 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: going down the road immediate? I don't know man, next 307 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: six months a year, Yes, I don't think anything's going 308 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: to change. And when you say the type of people 309 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: that you talked to and the interviews got, who were 310 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: some of the people that you got to interview while 311 00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: you were on this trip, Well, I, like I said, 312 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: us not in Korea for a very long period of time. 313 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: I did meet with some folks I'd rather not get 314 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: into their backs. But so a lot of anonymous sources, 315 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: but people, but people who would know. Yeah, yeah, but 316 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: when I when I was in the Philippines, not so 317 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: many anonymous sources. They will be on the record. Um So, 318 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: Like I'm working on an article right now about the 319 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: Filipino Scout Rangers and um one general. He's a general now. 320 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: At the time he was a lieutenant, was awarded the 321 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: Medal of Valor, which is their version of the Medal 322 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: of Honor. His Scout ranger platoon went and got they 323 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: mixed it up with the ABUSIF group and half of 324 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: his guys got wiped out. He was shot like probably 325 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: a dozen times or wounded in a dozen different places. 326 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: Um just a hollacious firefight they got into. But most 327 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: of the people I interviewed will be on the record, 328 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 1: they're tough dudes of Filipinos. I think they no joke, 329 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 1: they're tough guys. They they'll scrap. You were saying that too. 330 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: I mean that's that's always been my impression about those dudes. 331 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: That's a different kind of culture. I'm surprised Jack didn't 332 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: interview to Terry say, I mean you did get to 333 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 1: interview a sad when you went over to Syria, which 334 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: is pretty Yeah, that's that's a pretty good get. Well. Yeah, yeah, um, 335 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: that was I got a little lucky. I don't. I 336 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 1: think I'd have to do a little bit more work 337 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: before I'd be on to interview the president of the Philippines. 338 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 1: I have to ask them, man, with the action that 339 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 1: we're taking in Syria, that President Trump is taking, do 340 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 1: you have any of a different outlook on the fact 341 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 1: that you got to go to Asad's palace, you got 342 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,400 Speaker 1: to speak with him with a very small group of journalists. Um. 343 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: I think it's something that will probably never happen again. Yeah. Um, 344 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 1: And I can tell you just in my own experience, 345 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: I applied for a visa to go back to Syria, 346 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: and you know, you hear whining from the Syrian government 347 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 1: from other people. How come the American journalists don't go 348 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 1: and cover Syria? Why don't they go cover the Well 349 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: we're trying. We know, I applied for a visa and 350 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: they're like, yeah, we'll get back to you, you know, 351 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: if we want to. So it's one of those things 352 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: they wanted us in there that one time. They kind 353 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: of put out their propaganda man stage the regime's message 354 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 1: and uh, I don't tell with you know, yeah, yeah, 355 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: they don't have any interest in having American journalists cruising 356 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: around the country. My proposal was to go back and 357 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: cover the Syrian military too, and not to um stir 358 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: up trouble, you know, like like real people about war 359 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: crimes or anything, but to go cover the tactical and 360 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 1: strategic situation that these would be interesting actually because you're 361 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 1: not hearing anything. They don't pay anything like that nothing. 362 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: So um, that was my proposal to them. That's what 363 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: I wanted to go do, and um, I'm still waiting 364 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: to hear that. I gotta ask, then you were openly 365 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 1: more non interventionist in Syria at the time after meeting 366 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 1: a SAD I think I would say, unless, well, it 367 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 1: depends what do you mean by interventionalist. I mean I 368 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 1: was never I never supported the idea of removing the 369 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:53,120 Speaker 1: Assad regime just because there's no viable alternatives. So then, 370 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: which makes me wonder that was a few months prior 371 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 1: to President Trump getting a lot did what we're doing 372 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: right now, which I've do You say anyone would have done? 373 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 1: You believe you think whether it was President Obama or 374 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 1: President Hillary Clinton or former President Bill Clinton, they'd probably 375 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: be doing what Trump is right now, regardless of the 376 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 1: media hysteria. But what do you think of the action 377 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: that we're taking? Which action are you talking colophically? Yeah, 378 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: that the cruise missiles get into well, I mean the 379 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: cruise missile strike. Yeah, I would stick with that original point. 380 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: I think any president would have done that, no choice. Yeah, 381 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 1: to maintain international norms against the use of lunch of 382 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: mass destruction. I think anyone has done that. I guess 383 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: Trump is ramping up some of the covert action or 384 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 1: not not even that's that's really actually that's the news 385 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: we should get into, is that they're not doing covert action. Now. 386 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: They're saying we're overtly supplying the Kurds with weapons that 387 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 1: just came out, so that's kind of demonstrates a maturing 388 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: I think of the relationship between the United States and 389 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: the Kurdish YPG militia. That's very interesting. Those are great 390 00:19:55,800 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: guys actually, I mean I've I've worked with them. They're good. Yeah, Kurds. Yeah, 391 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,959 Speaker 1: but it's it's sticky too because the Curbs then are 392 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 1: also we have We're trying they're trying to walk this 393 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 1: fine line with Turkey as well. Right, those guys do 394 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: not like each other, the Curs and Turkey, and I 395 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 1: don't know, I think, what's the vibe I have? What 396 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: I just talked about Trump real quick? I mean I 397 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 1: just got out in October. I think you should mention that. Yeah, recently, 398 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: just tired. Yeah, it was. It's weird getting almost like 399 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 1: twenty four something years. I haven't even added it up. 400 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 1: Sometimes I've said twenty three that's not rights, not quite 401 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: twenty five because I had a break in service. Who cares. 402 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: But um, I think the dude so far that I've 403 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: talked to generally are okay, are pretty optimistic with with 404 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: Presidents Trump for two reasons, and they're and they're legit 405 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: based on what's gone on so far. Um, he is 406 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: unapologetically even obnoxiously pro American, right. And I think that's 407 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: the that's a pendulum swing from from what we had 408 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: for for eight years. And whether I'm not gonna come, 409 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: I don't know President Obama's heart. I think the things 410 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,919 Speaker 1: he did and said lent the idea that, you know, 411 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: it was like, we're no better than anybody else, and 412 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 1: that kind of thing, and I think you got this 413 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: other guy coming on, No, we're the best, that we're 414 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: gonna keep it that way. That's a we like that 415 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 1: in the military, not because we want to go fight 416 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 1: all these battles. But the second point is that Trump, 417 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 1: I think, seems to understand that you need a chainmail 418 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,400 Speaker 1: fist to back up any talk. And I think that's 419 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: where President Obama really missed it. Because President Obama, I 420 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: think really his his mistake was he believed his own hype. 421 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,959 Speaker 1: He really believed that the fact that he was such 422 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 1: an exceptional, you know president as far as what he was, 423 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: you know, first black president. He lived overseas, he had 424 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,239 Speaker 1: ties to the muzzle world, he understood them, you know, 425 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: he was Ivy League educated, great order. He actually thought 426 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: that that would be enough. His eminent reasonableness I'm making 427 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: that word up because I feel like it. Shakespeare made 428 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: up two words. I can make up a freaking word. 429 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 1: I said, oh yeah, but so I think that's true. 430 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: That's great. I'm not on Fox News right now. You 431 00:21:58,040 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: have to be very careful. But I think that was 432 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: the President Obama's problems, and he believed his own hype. 433 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: He thought that, yeah, I mean, I'm very reasonable, I'm 434 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: eminently persuadable. I can talk to these people. And he 435 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: quickly realized that's not the way it works. Russian reminds 436 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: me of the Carter administration. It is Russia is gonna 437 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: Russia Russia. And also Russia goes into Ukraine. You know, 438 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: they do there and we don't do anything about it. 439 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: I realized there's a lot of snakes out there. Well, 440 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: and that's the thing, you know. And President Obama, I think, 441 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 1: quickly had the lesson in reality of like, oh, wow, 442 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,239 Speaker 1: they're not gonna listen to me me because I'm cool, or 443 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 1: that I'm interesting, or that I'm black, or that I'm 444 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: any of those things that were made his presidency yet, 445 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 1: you know, obviously very historic. I think Trump is kind 446 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: of like the drunk uncle at Thanksgiving. I feel like, 447 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 1: you know, in a way, he might he just he 448 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: just might be the kind of guy. What did you 449 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: say to me? Now that's good and bad for us 450 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: in the military, right because we don't want to go 451 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: half cocked. But I think I feel like the dudes 452 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: I've talked to you right now are pretty I don't know, 453 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: pretty hopeful about him because he is very pro American America. First, 454 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to go on that tack for the 455 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 1: rest of our our existence because I think you gotta 456 00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: be park But I think it's again pendulum swing. And 457 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: I also think he's just he has no problem backing 458 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: it up and and that's good. There's other things we 459 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: have I have concerned with Terry. I mean, he did 460 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 1: say we're going to defeat Isis and we're gonna do 461 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 1: it fast. What did he say that he was going 462 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: to do it in the first month of his presidency. Yeah, 463 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 1: he says a lot of stuff. Yeah, I mean, I 464 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 1: I sensed that he he is also being confronted with 465 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 1: reality as opposed to his campaign. But we know that too. 466 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: Everybody says stuff during the campaign. Um, and I think 467 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: he will I hope. I don't know, man, I don't know, 468 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: the dude, he's you know, I was Trump wasn't my candidate. 469 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 1: But I think that you're right, he's getting the dose 470 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 1: of reality. I I hope at least what he will 471 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 1: do is to maybe turn some of it over to 472 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: the military and say what do you guys think we 473 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 1: should do? You know, And maybe that's better because I 474 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: think I think there was more political concerns with President 475 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: Obama in general. Yeah, you know what I mean, I 476 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,199 Speaker 1: think it was. It will be interesting too to see 477 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 1: what happens after. And I don't say this as a criticism, 478 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: per say, of of President Trump, but this this is 479 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: any president. I want to see how he's going to respond. 480 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 1: After the first time he gets burned really bad, then 481 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: we'll see, I mean, like the Benghazi type. Then we 482 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 1: will see scenario and something something bad happens. And I 483 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: also think within the after a couple of years of 484 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: him settling in and the and the freak outs, well 485 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 1: they're probably not going to stop medio wise. I mean, 486 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,239 Speaker 1: it's just that it's but I think, you know, we'll 487 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: see in a couple of years if he actually does 488 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: do stay within the bounds of the Constitution, if Congress 489 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: hold him accountable because you know, President Trump is driven 490 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: by ego. It's so is President Obama. I think their 491 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: egos are fed by different things. President Obama I think 492 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: fed on and thrived on the adulation. He really liked 493 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: being the world president. He liked being that guy who 494 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: came into the room where he goes. It's President Obama. 495 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: I think Trump thrives on just winning and crushing people. 496 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 1: And that's sometimes good, it's also sometimes bad. So their 497 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: egos are huge. I think they're both very thin skin, 498 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: but it's for kind of I think they're fed by 499 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 1: different things. Yeah, I mean different backgrounds to mean Obama 500 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 1: was a community organized or the lawyer, the senator, and Trump. 501 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 1: I mean you can see, I saw the news today 502 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: the director of the FBI has been fired. Who's the 503 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 1: next director gonna be? We have four candidates, which will 504 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 1: make it's the reality TV thing, like somebody's getting eliminated. 505 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: Who's gonna be? It is almost like a celebrity apprentice 506 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: for the FBI director. Yeah. Well, and the same thing 507 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: as Supreme Court justice. I mean that's how he plays 508 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: it everything. Yeah, and I think he digs it on 509 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: some level. Two, he does dig it and even though 510 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: He's not the first president on Twitter. He's like the 511 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: first Twitter president. He really is a Twitter president. I 512 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 1: wish sometimes I just I would actually like it for 513 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: if he would just I would appreciate. I get it. 514 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 1: He's punching back, which I like to see people punching back, 515 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: But I also think it's sometimes it looks childish, and 516 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,679 Speaker 1: I think, just just back off, dude, don't anything. Just 517 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 1: sometimes it's good. We learned us in Special Forces. Sometimes 518 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: it's good to kind of kind of keep it close 519 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: to the vest, keep it close to the chest, rather 520 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 1: keep your cards and just don't really say anything, you know, 521 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 1: smile and go okay, cool, great. Yeah. Well, I mean, 522 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: when you're the president of the United States, you don't 523 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 1: have to reply to everything. You don't have. You got, 524 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 1: you got some losta behind. And if you think that, 525 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: and if you think the insults are gonna stop because 526 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: you punch back, you're wrong. Yeah. So, you know, especially 527 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: when you're that high profile, you're gonna come out. They're 528 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: gonna come after him NonStop. That's that's just the way 529 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 1: it is.

It was also unconventional warfare though, because 576 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: their whole job was if the Soviets pushed across the wall, 577 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: they would basically go underground and become sabotage agents.

Is 648 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: it doable? So? Or is it know what I did that? 649 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 1: We did the Jaws episode where I shot the M 650 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: one and one grand and I was on a mast 651 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: and we had a moving shark target coming at me 652 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: with a with a scooba tag in his mouth, and 653 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: so then we test can you hit the Can you 654 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 1: hit that little pipe played bottom of the cylinder? Okay, 655 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: I was able to do that. I think I hit 656 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: three out of six, so that's okay, and then we 657 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: for safety version. For safety reasons, we then took the 658 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 1: cylinder filled with air, put it back to three yards. 659 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: I hit it. I hit it with actually by Buddy 660 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 1: Corey had his a it's three oh eight, and I 661 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: hit it and did some interesting things to the shark. 662 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 1: We had a eight thousand dollar mock up shark. It 663 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: looked amazing and looked like the thing of Jaws. Yeah, 664 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: and then we then just for fun because it wasn't 665 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: blowy up because it was compressed there and we sort 666 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: of knew that. I put some tanner right on the 667 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: side of the tank and I just blew it to 668 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: Smith Reeds. So it's been interesting because a lot of 669 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 1: the stuff, dude. So that's what we do. And you know, 670 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: the goal is not to debunk the show debunk a movie, 671 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: because that's no funs. It's to celebrate it. I get 672 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: to play the characters like you get in the full 673 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: costume every dude.

I think 679 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: the show what's what's working. You know what's fun about 680 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: it is that if you're a gun guy, there's some 681 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: stuff there for you. If your weapons guy, oh cool. 682 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,719 Speaker 1: If you're someone who just likes movies and TV shows 683 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: and you're like, man, I love that.

You'll dig it. 689 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: And so I think we kind of we have an 690 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: interesting audience. I've gotten a lot of really nice feedback 691 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 1: from it. And it's fun.

So the second I want to do 701 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: the Dirty Harry one where he comes out of the 702 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 1: diner on that and he's eating the hot dog and 703 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: he's got the forty four bag and he's gotta shoot 704 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 1: one handed. That's gonna be a hard shot. We're gonna do. 705 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: So we're gonna try to do some lethal weapons stuff. 706 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: I want to do some stuff from like some of 707 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: the seventies cops shows I grew up with, like like 708 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 1: maybe Kojack or Star Skiing Huts. Just so there's a 709 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 1: wealth of stuff out there, a gun stuff, like, hey, man, 710 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 1: is that actually possible? We were thinking of doing like 711 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 1: an hour long episode is a half hour show, so 712 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,400 Speaker 1: it's really fast. We're thinking to an hour long episode 713 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 1: maybe like World War two stuff, world War two movies, 714 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: you know, like Kelly's Heroes or or you know some 715 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,399 Speaker 1: of those, and and we gotta we have a it's 716 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: wide open right now, and it's uh, it's been a 717 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 1: lot of fun, man, It's been a lot of It's 718 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 1: just been so much fun. How can I complain You're 719 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 1: showing me the preview earlier where you're playing Captain Kirk 720 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:49,840 Speaker 1: and you're fighting the lizard Man. Yep, I had to 721 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,319 Speaker 1: choreograph well because I even said for him, like, I 722 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 1: got an idea, let's do that fight scene with with 723 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 1: Gore and the lizard Man. So you know, I'm dressed 724 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,360 Speaker 1: just like Kirk, and I've that really bad double handed 725 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: punch and the awful kick and he's grabbing with him 726 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 1: and I we choreographed so it looks exactly like if 727 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: you were just walking in the living room, you go, 728 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: oh wow, an old Star Trek episode is on, and 729 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: we tested to see, you know, he made that homemade cannon, 730 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: and so sometimes in the show it works. It works, 731 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: full on, Holy sh it. It worked ever first take. 732 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,319 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, quite a few, Yeah, quite a few, and 733 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: then some of them like maybe maybe not so, like 734 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: the ramble one with the powder reignites the powder with 735 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: the m six. Okay, so the first time we tried that, 736 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: we're shooting it through plexiglass and stuff. The blast the 737 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: muzzle blasts from the from the from the sixty which 738 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 1: is seven two machine um just pushed all the powder away. 739 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 1: You could see on the phantom camera slow motion, a 740 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: little bit of flame, but it was pushed away and 741 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 1: blown out. So Larry's like, well, we could tweak it 742 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:46,879 Speaker 1: a bit because it was in a hardware store. Maybe 743 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: there's some grooves and the planks, so we were able 744 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: to put a little more powder and once that happened, man, 745 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: it actually took off. What did you do for the 746 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: die Hard episode? So yeah, so we did two things. 747 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,800 Speaker 1: There's that iconic scene where he gets he gets blown 748 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: off the roof. He's and he swings and he can't 749 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: get through the window, and so he pushes off. He 750 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 1: pushes off and he starts, he takes his bread and 751 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 1: got shoots it in six rounds. So we do it 752 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,280 Speaker 1: exactly that and see if you can push through the window. 753 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 1: We also did just for fun. You know, there's a 754 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: lot of MP five's rolling around that show he had 755 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: a while, so I actually used the MP five for 756 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,280 Speaker 1: twenty rounds. At the time. It was a very hip gun. Actually, 757 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 1: so was the Barretta. I mean the first time we 758 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: saw exactly right, exactly, So like stuff like that, dude, 759 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: you'll dig because it's you know, if you know the 760 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 1: shows and you know the movie, like, oh, I remember 761 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 1: that gun and the Bretta ninety two is pretty much 762 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,399 Speaker 1: my service gun in my whole career. So I told 763 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 1: I looked at Larry good Man, I better not suck, 764 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: you know, He's that better not. There's a lot of pressure, 765 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,359 Speaker 1: Just a lot of pressure, dude, because it's like one take, 766 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 1: like you gotta try it and if I blow it, okay, 767 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: you know. And like I said, we don't debunk the show. 768 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 1: I just you know, and if I miss it or 769 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 1: it doesn't work quite as well, ago at Clint East 770 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: who could have done it, you know, So you gotta 771 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: give credit to the to the guys who made the character. 772 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:00,719 Speaker 1: So we did a Rambo thing. We Predator with a 773 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 1: mini gun. I got to meet Bill Duke, the guy 774 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 1: who played Mac Mac. Super nice guy, you guys. He 775 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 1: was so cool and friendly to me. I had like 776 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 1: a forty five minute interview with this cat. That's awesome. 777 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 1: Asked him a lot of questions about actor stuff too. 778 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: I said, was that was that shaving? Remember in the 779 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 1: movie he's doing the dry shave? And I was like, 780 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: I gotta ask you because I'm an actor too. Was 781 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,240 Speaker 1: that an actor's choice or was that written in the script. 782 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 1: He goes, no, I came up with it myself because 783 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: I thought, and he's not even military guy. He goes, 784 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 1: I just figured guys like that would have have to 785 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 1: have some kind of channel for their nervous energy. I said, dude, 786 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: that was such a great fucking choice. He was like, 787 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 1: that was like one of the best portrayals of a 788 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 1: soldier in a movie. He was great. Yeah, he was brilliant. 789 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: He was, Yeah, I'm I'm gonna bleed out. We're gonna 790 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: have some fun. We're gonna have some fun. And he goes, 791 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: he goes, he goes, I'm tired of you. He says, 792 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 1: I'm like ghost ghosted. That was your ghosted us because 793 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: I'm touching good lead to bleed real. Yeah, it was 794 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: just so and he was, you get to recreate those lines. Yeah. 795 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 1: When I even asked him before before we did the test, 796 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,320 Speaker 1: I said, so, Bill, you know you got any you 797 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 1: got any last words for me? And he's like, if 798 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: it bleeds, you can kill it. And he actually came 799 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: on another surprise, So he actually came out to the 800 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 1: range on test day and I did not expect that. 801 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 1: So I'm talking to Larry and all of a sudden, 802 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:10,800 Speaker 1: he goes, yeah, I got something else. I look and 803 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,520 Speaker 1: there's Bill Duke, so you know he didn't do it, 804 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 1: but he uh, you know, I did the mini gun 805 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 1: with blanks. You can't shoot a mini gun. Yeah, the 806 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,239 Speaker 1: mini gun thing is bullshit. You can't hut him. And 807 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 1: we talked about that. It is impossible. So we did it. 808 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: But I did it just like in the movie where 809 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 1: I had the blanks in the belt and it looks 810 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 1: bad as it's so much fun. And then we actually 811 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 1: mounted to a tripod and actually Larry had that gun 812 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 1: so nice. I'm thinking it was close to two minutes straight. 813 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 1: I've never done that in real life. Two minute straight 814 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,360 Speaker 1: mini gun, back and forth, traversing across this homemade you know, 815 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,880 Speaker 1: this man made jungle. We made barrels glowing by the 816 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:42,800 Speaker 1: barrel was on. It was just it looked like it 817 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 1: was it was it was it was cooking the air 818 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 1: so and it was so you know, dude, it's a 819 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 1: lot of fun. Uh. If you dig guns, you'll dig 820 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: it if you like the movies, Like there's a scene, okay, 821 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 1: and I just I'm really lucky because I retired in 822 00:38:56,600 --> 00:39:00,320 Speaker 1: October and I was already filming the series. So you know, 823 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 1: it's car for guys like us to get out because 824 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: we're thinking what do I do with my life now? 825 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 1: And I had other things potentially lined up and I 826 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,760 Speaker 1: still do. But that was nice because I was actually 827 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: still I was filming it in Gunsight, Arizona with the 828 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 1: October tenth and I retired, so I got kind of 829 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:16,839 Speaker 1: lucky that I was already segu congratulations. Yeah, it was good. 830 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 1: It was cool. And you've been a guy who's been 831 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 1: doing this for years. I mean, for the people who 832 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 1: aren't that familiar with Terry, You've done Shark Week, You're 833 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 1: a regular on World Cow Show. Dude, you're screwed. I 834 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: had a survival show on Discovery. I did. My first 835 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,280 Speaker 1: big break was was Warriors with Terry Shopper on History. 836 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 1: And as you've said, you're a trained actor, so it's 837 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: kind of a natural transition for you. Yet at the 838 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 1: same time, you've been pretty honest and saying it's a 839 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 1: little bitter sweet to not be a Green Beret anymore, 840 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,839 Speaker 1: to be a former Green Barrett. Yeah, and I don't 841 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: like I don't like that. You know now we call 842 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 1: ourselves f a g S Former action guys, action guys, 843 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:54,160 Speaker 1: and reminds me a Team American World Police. Yes, exactly, exactly, 844 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 1: but it's you know, I was talking to Jack before 845 00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 1: we started, before you went on era. I was a 846 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 1: little worried about it. I still kind of am, because 847 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,320 Speaker 1: in my quiet moments, I think, God, man, what what 848 00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: do I do? You know what I mean? That was 849 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: my I was almost a quarter of a century doing that. 850 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 1: Your identity, it's your identity. So even when I'm walking 851 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: around in New York City, I often think to myself, Man, 852 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 1: what separated me from that? Herd? Is not me anymore? 853 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: So it's kind of I guess you gotta put the 854 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 1: ego down a little bit, maybe, right, I mean, you've 855 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 1: been you've been out for a while, Yeah, for sure. 856 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 1: I mean I think the smart thing you did is 857 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 1: that you already had a transition plan. You know, you 858 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,919 Speaker 1: were already any way out. And I encourage other guys 859 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,879 Speaker 1: to do that. Like I was saying to another guy 860 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,399 Speaker 1: I know who's getting out maybe in like a year, 861 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 1: and he's already starting up business things. It's good for him. 862 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 1: And I was like, that's smart, because the last thing 863 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,760 Speaker 1: you want to do is get out of the military 864 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 1: and then ask yourself back, now what And they had 865 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 1: now what, Well, now you're screwed because you don't have 866 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:55,840 Speaker 1: a job. Yeah, anyone sitting around on the catch drinking 867 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 1: jim beam, that's not good for any of us. It 868 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 1: wasn't that kind of you, to be honest a little bit. 869 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 1: Maybe not the gym beam, but you didn't have You've 870 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 1: said before that you were you were trying to apply 871 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 1: for jobs that they said you were overqualified for. Yeah, yeah, 872 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 1: well that happened. Um, I did go through a little 873 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:13,880 Speaker 1: bit of a limbo, but I by the time I 874 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: got out, I knew that I was going to be 875 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:18,919 Speaker 1: going to college. But year did you putch out again? 876 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 1: Two thousand and ten? That's right, Okay, Yeah, so you 877 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,239 Speaker 1: had school lined up. Yeah, um, but it's hard. A 878 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:27,319 Speaker 1: lot of guys, you know, man, were just talking about 879 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 1: Mike Mantonito, that the actor that he did such a 880 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,360 Speaker 1: great job in that movie. Uh, miracle went into Special 881 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 1: Forces about a week and a half, two weeks ago. 882 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 1: We killed himself. It's someone Kurt Slichter, who's a guy 883 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 1: following Twitter. He's a very conservative guy, but he actually 884 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 1: wrote a tweet right after that. Actually, this guy, Bob 885 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 1: Owen's killed himself too. I don't know who he has 886 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,280 Speaker 1: ever seen heard of. Bob Owen's very interesting guy, Second 887 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:52,959 Speaker 1: Amendment guy, very humble, and he was witty as shit, 888 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:55,279 Speaker 1: like people would come after him and he would just 889 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,399 Speaker 1: in a very clever, you can't beat it kind of way, 890 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,439 Speaker 1: just crushed him, but with a smile on his face. 891 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:02,800 Speaker 1: And he committed suicide. And it was awful because, like 892 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 1: his last Facebook post was, I guess I'm not as 893 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 1: strong as you thought I was or told you I was. 894 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 1: I'm kind of a coward. I'm sorry. It also kind 895 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: of sucks when a guy who's pro Second Amendment out 896 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,719 Speaker 1: there about it, you know well, and then and then 897 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,279 Speaker 1: the vultures that piled on that, that was awful, Like, 898 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:20,440 Speaker 1: oh that's what you get, asshole. I was like, man, 899 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 1: you have no class. So and but but Kurt Schlichter said, hey, guys, 900 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 1: you know, if you're thinking about doing that, just reach 901 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: out to one of us, just just maybe maybe just 902 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: give us a chance. What do you got to lose? 903 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 1: And and it is hard. I was just at a 904 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 1: charity for this these guys, task Force Dagger last weekend 905 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,200 Speaker 1: and it was awesome. I'm actually doing something for those 906 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 1: dudes down to Key West, in in June. June, we 907 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 1: do a big dive. We bring them, not just Special 908 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: Forces guys with the families, so they all go, they 909 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,719 Speaker 1: all get certified, they all go diving. But you know, 910 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:52,799 Speaker 1: some of those guys in these charities, man, they're getting 911 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:54,320 Speaker 1: calls at two o'clock in the morning, like if you 912 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,279 Speaker 1: don't if you don't help me, I'm not gonna be 913 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 1: here Tuesday. Holy shit, I mean, this has really happened, 914 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 1: and I don't That's another topic for for a longer day. Maybe. 915 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 1: I mean, we're complicated. We're complicated guys, and we do 916 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 1: get hurt. It's very hard to admit it. We don't 917 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: want to be that dude like your arrange of Italian guy. Right, 918 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: I went to range of school. We're both at SEF. 919 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:18,840 Speaker 1: One of the things we never want to be is 920 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,439 Speaker 1: that guy, the burden, the one who brings down the unit. 921 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 1: So right, I mean, I think that's and that by 922 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 1: the way, that peer pressure is good. It's effective, and 923 00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 1: then it keeps guys really really humming and doing their best. 924 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 1: But sometimes it will isolate you. And when that happens, 925 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 1: then then you could then you're fucked. You know what 926 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 1: I've struggled with some some some issues as well. So 927 00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 1: I feel like almost all the you know, being the 928 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 1: civilian who gets to meet guys, Yeah, you talk to 929 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 1: us a lot. I feel like I hear it from 930 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,880 Speaker 1: most Special operations and it's hard to admit. But if 931 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 1: we're honest with ourselves, you know, it's it sucks. You know, 932 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:53,880 Speaker 1: it's it is an ego thing too, because we're all 933 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: we're all prima donnas thinking we're the ultimate, unbeatable to unbeatable, 934 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:02,000 Speaker 1: ultimate bad out. But then how many guys get out 935 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:03,800 Speaker 1: of the military. In the second they do, they're like 936 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: falling apart or struggling. I mean, we all struggled to 937 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,840 Speaker 1: some extent. But it's like, well, maybe we need to 938 00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:13,279 Speaker 1: set aside all the I'm a badass. Uh, you know 939 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 1: what are the other sayings that are they're out there, 940 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:17,840 Speaker 1: I don't need help or you don't help me. But 941 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,239 Speaker 1: I also think and and but this, like like Task 942 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 1: Force Daggers is doing well and so common. Actually I 943 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 1: asked them, so COMMS trying pretty hard. So COMMS is 944 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:27,399 Speaker 1: putting for a pretty good effort to kind of reach 945 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 1: out to all And it's not just special ops guys. 946 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,720 Speaker 1: It's even like conventional guys that got wounded with stuff 947 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 1: during our operations. But you know, at some point the 948 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 1: regiment I'm speaking for, the Special Forces regiment, has to 949 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 1: potentially look inside itself and start looking to take care 950 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 1: of guys when they get out. I don't know, man, 951 00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 1: I feel like in a lot of ways, guys just 952 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:46,399 Speaker 1: get out and you're just dumped on the street. Yeah. 953 00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,439 Speaker 1: I don't think it's intentionally mean, it just happens. Yeah, 954 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: the military doesn't take responsibility for what happens. I mean, 955 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 1: they just slide that paperwork across the desk and your 956 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:58,960 Speaker 1: your out, off you go. And uh. And it's funny 957 00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:02,359 Speaker 1: how I don't know if I want to get into 958 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 1: this too much, but it's funny. I didn't mean to 959 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 1: get on that road. No, no, no, I think it's 960 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:12,359 Speaker 1: important to say it is. I think it's funny how 961 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 1: the military sometimes tries to reach to the guys who 962 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 1: are out and put like pressure on them and say 963 00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:20,279 Speaker 1: like no, no, no, don't do this, don't do that. 964 00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 1: But then it does the military doesn't really take responsibility 965 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,360 Speaker 1: for these guys when their lives are falling apart. They 966 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 1: kind of walk from it. Well, we also had a 967 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 1: problem too. I I don't know what that's like right now, 968 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 1: but I think it's still a problem. You know, So 969 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 1: you think about this. You get guys and Jack was 970 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: in that world. You get you get Special Forces guys 971 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 1: that are rolling on deployment after deployment after deployment, and 972 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 1: then they come back and maybe they get a d U. I. 973 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,399 Speaker 1: You know, they get jammed up, they funk up, they'll 974 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: they'll get their tab revote. You know, US Army Special 975 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,440 Speaker 1: Forces Command goes in and actually, you know, takes their 976 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:54,920 Speaker 1: tab away. You've not that means you actually can't ever 977 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 1: really claim your green break. You've seen guys have their 978 00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 1: be detabbed for a d U. I yeah, dinah, I've 979 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:02,239 Speaker 1: never seen it happen, but I've talked to guys that 980 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:04,719 Speaker 1: had happened guys and and for other things too. Like 981 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 1: I guess what I'm saying is when guys start breaking 982 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,239 Speaker 1: and everybody breaks and they and they funk up, they 983 00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:12,959 Speaker 1: get jammed up, they do this, I don't know whatever 984 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 1: the kind of thing is. You know, instead of like, hey, 985 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 1: maybe we can help this dude, a lot of times 986 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,040 Speaker 1: they're just like we crushed them, and I'm painting with 987 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,320 Speaker 1: a broad brush, and it's not like, oh woe is me, 988 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,839 Speaker 1: But I think just from a long term point of view, 989 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:26,840 Speaker 1: from the regiment's health, they've got to maybe re examine 990 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 1: a couple of things on how we handle guys in 991 00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 1: how we transition them out. And then you know what's 992 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 1: happening now and it's working, is that you know, the 993 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,480 Speaker 1: support structures for when you get out are actually being 994 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:39,720 Speaker 1: done by guys who are not in the military anymore. 995 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 1: So guys like us were like, we can help you, 996 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 1: and so that's the right thing to do. That's another 997 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,680 Speaker 1: thing I'm I'm planning on getting into. I've already started 998 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,800 Speaker 1: getting involved in some of that stuff more now that 999 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:51,759 Speaker 1: I'm out, because I got no excuse now to not 1000 00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:53,920 Speaker 1: do it, because now I can't. I can't say, well, 1001 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: i'm in, I'm busy. No, I'm suncing up now. So 1002 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,359 Speaker 1: I got to do that. Jack and I not too 1003 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:02,760 Speaker 1: long ago interviewed crawl Longer, which what's his organization? Gallant 1004 00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 1: Few Gallant Few, Yeah, And and I think he gives 1005 00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:07,640 Speaker 1: out his number and says like, hey, if it's an 1006 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 1: emergency type situation, I'm there, and he makes himself available. 1007 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 1: There's a lot of great veterans organizations out there for 1008 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 1: you guys to check out, Gallant Few being one of them. 1009 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:20,120 Speaker 1: Carl is, Yeah, he's hardcore, like seriously committed, does a 1010 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 1: lot of work. And those guys are so unselfish, you know, 1011 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 1: like the guy the Keith David who's running Task Force Dagger. 1012 00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 1: I mean, like I said, he's he had like he had, 1013 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 1: he had spinal surgery. They fused his spine, they go 1014 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,640 Speaker 1: in through his trick. Five days later, he's on his 1015 00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 1: couch and he's he gets a call from guys like 1016 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:38,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be dead by tuesday. Boom, activate the bath phone. 1017 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,160 Speaker 1: In an hour, there's plane tickets, he's getting admitted to 1018 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,320 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Clinic, all this kind of stuff. But you know, 1019 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:44,800 Speaker 1: you're now putting that on and they're doing that just 1020 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,719 Speaker 1: out of love, you know. So it is very unselfish. 1021 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 1: And you also have to think about the guy fielding 1022 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 1: those phone calls day and yeah, right, and then they 1023 00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:56,840 Speaker 1: start getting crushed. You start seeing this stuff over and 1024 00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:58,840 Speaker 1: over again. Anyway, I hope we didn't don't mean to 1025 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 1: digress into this. No, no, no, I think I think 1026 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:04,840 Speaker 1: we're like I said, it's important actually wrapping up that 1027 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 1: topic though, have by any chance have you guys seen 1028 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:11,239 Speaker 1: the new All That Remains video Madness So great band 1029 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 1: and our friend Chris Tanto Paranto it stars in the video, 1030 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 1: so Philibanti who fronts All that Remains as a former 1031 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: Marine himself. Yeah, he's yeah, so, I mean veterans issues 1032 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:25,160 Speaker 1: very important thing to him. Uh. And Chris Speranto plays 1033 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:27,800 Speaker 1: a suicidal vet and you know, his daughter walks in 1034 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 1: the room and it stops him from shooting himself. And 1035 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,399 Speaker 1: Chris has said actually on this show on Sopprep Radio 1036 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:36,239 Speaker 1: that he he doesn't feel, you know, he was necessarily 1037 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 1: playing a part. He was saying, that's where I was 1038 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 1: at that stage in life. And he wrote a whole 1039 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 1: article about that. He was at a airport one time 1040 00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 1: and he was feeling kind of suicidal during the whole 1041 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 1: Benghazi stuff because he said the mainstream media wasn't having 1042 00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:52,320 Speaker 1: us on. We were all being told we were liars. 1043 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 1: And he said some older lady at an airport just 1044 00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 1: came up to him and was like, hey, are Utanto, 1045 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,560 Speaker 1: And he said, I didn't want to talk to this woman. 1046 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:03,759 Speaker 1: I kind of just wanted to be left alone. And 1047 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 1: he was like, yeah, I'm Tonto, and she said, hey, 1048 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,440 Speaker 1: I love what you're saying. Keeps speaking your truth. And 1049 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,840 Speaker 1: he says, this woman doesn't know it, but she stopped 1050 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 1: me profound something stupid to myself, that's profound. Yeah, I 1051 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:17,759 Speaker 1: think most Americans. I don't know, Jackie, do you tell me? 1052 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: I think. I think most Americans appreciate what we do. 1053 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,640 Speaker 1: I really do, I think, but I think a lot 1054 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:25,840 Speaker 1: of them are unaware of the whole thing, you know, 1055 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 1: another thing we got to So if you look at 1056 00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,719 Speaker 1: and this sounds every one of them means something to us, right, 1057 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:33,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm wearing one. I'm wearing my you know, 1058 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 1: Tim McGill and my wrist right now. But in a 1059 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 1: relative way, you know, we've lost compared to what we've 1060 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:40,440 Speaker 1: lost the World War Two. It's it's it's not a 1061 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 1: lot of guys. So it's easy for the for the 1062 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:45,439 Speaker 1: for the folks at home who are not They don't 1063 00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:47,600 Speaker 1: know Jack Murphy. You know, they're not your brother or 1064 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 1: you guys, don't you know, they don't know us. We 1065 00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 1: are becoming, in a weird way, a bit of a 1066 00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 1: chance of being a lost generation. Because of World War Two, 1067 00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:57,799 Speaker 1: everybody had somebody over there uncle's son, brother. Okay, every 1068 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:02,840 Speaker 1: the country was a rational tinfoil, like everybody was involved 1069 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 1: in this effort. Now for a lot of people, they 1070 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:06,359 Speaker 1: come back and it's a news story. You go, oh man, 1071 00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 1: someone got killed. The guests that what's for dinner. It's 1072 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 1: not their fault. Yeah, yeah, it's just the way it is. 1073 00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:11,640 Speaker 1: In an odd way. We fight for them to be 1074 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:16,560 Speaker 1: able to be detached from it, disassociated. I mean, yeah, 1075 00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:19,239 Speaker 1: how how could you ever expect them to be as 1076 00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 1: fully engaged the way we are to get up in 1077 00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:23,480 Speaker 1: the morning, they go to work, they do the thing, 1078 00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:26,399 Speaker 1: take care of their kids. And I would never want, 1079 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:28,720 Speaker 1: you know, the average American to be in a position 1080 00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 1: where it's like they have to be thinking about the 1081 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:34,239 Speaker 1: war like on the that I mean, that's why we've 1082 00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:37,000 Speaker 1: we fought so that they are in general, are not 1083 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:40,960 Speaker 1: in that situation. Um. But yeah, it's a cultural divide. 1084 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,800 Speaker 1: And there's some thought that the military today is moving 1085 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 1: into a situation or scenario where it's like today's American 1086 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 1: military is like sort of like Knights of the Round 1087 00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 1: Table kind of thing where you have this like small 1088 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 1: professional force and it's also generational, so like the people 1089 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:00,440 Speaker 1: who are joining the military. You're probably joining because your 1090 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,920 Speaker 1: dad and your grandfather were right, you were influenced by 1091 00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 1: someone directly involved with me. Right, So it's becoming like 1092 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 1: a more and more more culture. Uh. And we don't 1093 00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 1: have conscription like during World War Two or even Vietnam, 1094 00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:14,320 Speaker 1: which we want. I don't want that, so less and 1095 00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 1: less people have that familiarity or that understanding with the military. Um. 1096 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,640 Speaker 1: And like South Korea they have conscription um and the 1097 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:25,360 Speaker 1: Philippines they did away with r otc um, but they 1098 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 1: might be bringing something like that back. Yeah. Well, I 1099 00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:29,879 Speaker 1: mean if you think about a point whatever percentage point 1100 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: zero percentage of the of the population is in the military, right. 1101 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,080 Speaker 1: I don't know the number I should have looked at up, 1102 00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,680 Speaker 1: but whatever it is, it's quite small. So that my 1103 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 1: point is what keeps us alive after we die. It's 1104 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,840 Speaker 1: a continued stories. And it was kind of like that 1105 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,879 Speaker 1: tradition of talking about my uncle. Well, if we only 1106 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,880 Speaker 1: have point zero something percent of the dudes doing it 1107 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,200 Speaker 1: over a couple of generations, that just goes away. So's 1108 00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:53,560 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So in a weird way, 1109 00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 1: that's that's where it kind of just it just erases itself. 1110 00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 1: By time. You know. That's why on a show recently 1111 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:01,279 Speaker 1: we had it on a guy Jim downing Pearl Harbor 1112 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 1: survivor and it's crazy to think we're the last of 1113 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 1: unbelievable that's going to talk to Pearl Harbor survivors, Holocaust survivors. 1114 00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:12,880 Speaker 1: By the time maybe I have kids, or by the 1115 00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 1: time your daughter is as a teenager, these guys won't 1116 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:20,319 Speaker 1: be around. Absolutely, even the Vietnam veterans are getting older. 1117 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:23,440 Speaker 1: If you think they're getting in their seventies now, yeah, dude, 1118 00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 1: there are those cats? Are those they're up there now? Anyway, 1119 00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:31,759 Speaker 1: So anyway, buzz kill here, No, No, that's not a 1120 00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 1: buzz kill. It's actually I think I'm hopeful. You know 1121 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:35,880 Speaker 1: I'm hopeful, but I'm also just realistic. You also know, 1122 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 1: you never know who's watching this Facebook live right now, 1123 00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 1: and you might have just heard about Gallant FUS. So 1124 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:42,200 Speaker 1: I mean there's a positive too, And if there's some 1125 00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:44,360 Speaker 1: of your there's someone out there listening right now. I 1126 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 1: will say this seriously, if because you have a lot 1127 00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:49,400 Speaker 1: of military guys listening to you, guys and give a 1128 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:51,640 Speaker 1: ship what you say. If you're listening to this and 1129 00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:54,880 Speaker 1: you're kind of treading that line before you do it, 1130 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:57,360 Speaker 1: before you do something like that, and just and just 1131 00:52:57,520 --> 00:52:59,319 Speaker 1: destroy all the people who you wait may or may 1132 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: not know love you. Just get give us, as Kurt 1133 00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:04,640 Speaker 1: Schlichter said, just give us a chance, call one of us. 1134 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 1: If someone called me and said that's it for me, 1135 00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:09,520 Speaker 1: would you do? Would you do anything? You move heaven 1136 00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:11,719 Speaker 1: and earth for them? But half the time, like I 1137 00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,200 Speaker 1: had no idea. So just you know, don't look for 1138 00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:16,600 Speaker 1: the government to help you. The v A and they try, 1139 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,080 Speaker 1: but you know, we cared the most about each other 1140 00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 1: down range. It was us. It was just us. And 1141 00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:23,359 Speaker 1: so it's kind of that way now. So if you're 1142 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:25,839 Speaker 1: listening to this and there's you're having a bad time, man, 1143 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:29,080 Speaker 1: hit up one of your buddies. Trust me, he will 1144 00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 1: be there for you. And I think that's the only 1145 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:34,040 Speaker 1: way to start it right now, because we just isolate 1146 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,480 Speaker 1: ourselves and and it's just kind of the culture we're in. 1147 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 1: It's a warrior culture. I'm actually writing a book about it. 1148 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:40,440 Speaker 1: I got a deal that I'm writing about looking for you. 1149 00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 1: Just you put out a weapon's book there, Yeah, that 1150 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:44,719 Speaker 1: was a long time ago, and I want I want 1151 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 1: to call that book It was supposed to be a 1152 00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 1: fun book called The Green Beret's Guide to to Lazy 1153 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:52,440 Speaker 1: Street Survival, which I thought was a cool title, and 1154 00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:55,080 Speaker 1: the publisher was like, we don't. We don't want the 1155 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,440 Speaker 1: people to, you know, misconstrue that it's not an official 1156 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 1: Green bad I said, people listen, I said, let's let's 1157 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 1: talk to Brandon Webb.

I have a signed coffee by you 1172 00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 1: it's almost comparable to Quinn Emerson Navy Seals Deadly Skills. 1173 00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:40,440 Speaker 1: It's a similar but it's a lot of tongue in 1174 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:42,200 Speaker 1: cheek stuff. It's a lot of fun. I talked about 1175 00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:44,920 Speaker 1: some experiences and it's just sort of like, you know, 1176 00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 1: creativity stuff, like when you're with your wife a girlfriend 1177 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:49,680 Speaker 1: out at a restaurant and you know, you just start 1178 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 1: playing creative games. Like you realize right now, I could 1179 00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:54,359 Speaker 1: pick that mug up and break it over your head. 1180 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,840 Speaker 1: You wouldn't even be able to stop me. Oh that's interesting, asshole. 1181 00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:59,480 Speaker 1: I could take this rigid menu and shove it under 1182 00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:01,239 Speaker 1: your throat, and I said, just make sure you don't 1183 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:02,799 Speaker 1: say it loud enough so people are like, we gotta 1184 00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:04,640 Speaker 1: call the cops. But it's like kind of fun because 1185 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:06,840 Speaker 1: because I think we gets people jammed up always is 1186 00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:08,919 Speaker 1: they're just not you know, like I said, don't don't 1187 00:55:08,960 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 1: walk out of a parking lot in Walmart with your 1188 00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:15,640 Speaker 1: head buried in your cell phone at midnight that you're getting. 1189 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 1: But people do that stuff all the time. I talked 1190 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 1: about this this Indian woman, she was like sixty seven 1191 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:24,720 Speaker 1: years old. She fought off a tiger with a farm 1192 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:27,080 Speaker 1: implement and she fought this thing for like forty five 1193 00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,680 Speaker 1: minutes of walk back to the village. She didn't have 1194 00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:32,319 Speaker 1: any martial arts training. You know, I basically talked about 1195 00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:34,440 Speaker 1: unleashing the inner chimp. No one wants to fight a 1196 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 1: crazy dude, you know. Uh So that that was that book. 1197 00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:40,080 Speaker 1: But I'm I'm working on a book now called Warrior Culture. 1198 00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:42,839 Speaker 1: Um has better not steal. I've already got a thing 1199 00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:45,000 Speaker 1: on it. But it's a it's about what we are 1200 00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:48,400 Speaker 1: because I mean, I'm an anthropology degree. I've kept that going. 1201 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:51,239 Speaker 1: But with you guys are pretty well educated, and I 1202 00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 1: want to tie that in the anthropological aspect of of 1203 00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 1: society's there's a good reason why they have warrior cultures. 1204 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:00,040 Speaker 1: And you know the dirty secret is too, it's not 1205 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:02,719 Speaker 1: just because we're all altruistic gods like us like to fight, 1206 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:05,600 Speaker 1: and it would behoove a society to find a place 1207 00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:10,400 Speaker 1: for us that's not destructive to the society. So get 1208 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,799 Speaker 1: us ready for battle. How us fight your enemies, because 1209 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:15,120 Speaker 1: otherwise we can become really bad criminals. It's the same. 1210 00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:17,080 Speaker 1: I think that's why the g I Bill exists in 1211 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 1: the first place. It's like for a country it's a 1212 00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:21,759 Speaker 1: bad thing to have large numbers of unemployed veterans on 1213 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:24,880 Speaker 1: your street. It's not a good idea. Well it's not. 1214 00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:28,279 Speaker 1: It's not a good idea. So anyway, man, I look 1215 00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:30,760 Speaker 1: at it from a you know, and also warrior culture. 1216 00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 1: So what is a warrior in my In my book, 1217 00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:35,920 Speaker 1: it is narrowly defined as someone who's gone to war 1218 00:56:36,120 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 1: or goes to war. So it's not like an m M. 1219 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:40,240 Speaker 1: A fighter is not a warrior. He's a fighter unless 1220 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:43,440 Speaker 1: it's Tim Kennedy's Tim Kenny. That's Tim Kenny, is all 1221 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:44,880 Speaker 1: of those things. But you know what I'm saying, So 1222 00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 1: for the world warrior in this case, it's got to 1223 00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:48,799 Speaker 1: be someone actually goes to combat and it's a life 1224 00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:52,200 Speaker 1: or death situation. Not a social justice warrior. Not. No, 1225 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 1: I'm not saying. I don't say that mocking. You're not 1226 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 1: a cancer warrior. Yeah we can. But and also culture 1227 00:56:57,680 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 1: is a set of learned behaviors. So what is how 1228 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 1: do you does that learn behavior set that gets passed 1229 00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:05,120 Speaker 1: on through different societies, And there's good and there's bad. 1230 00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 1: There's really good things about it, and there's some things 1231 00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:08,960 Speaker 1: that are self destructive. And finding where that where you 1232 00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 1: can tattle that first societies is actually always a challenge. Anyway, 1233 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:15,760 Speaker 1: what any idea when that will be out? I should 1234 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 1: be done with it, I'm thinking in the next I 1235 00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:21,959 Speaker 1: want to say about Fall. I think about Fall. Yeah, 1236 00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:24,640 Speaker 1: I was going to mention to you Jack, other than 1237 00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,360 Speaker 1: the article that you wrote, which we covered earlier, of 1238 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 1: you going to South Korea, you're writing what like a 1239 00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:35,800 Speaker 1: twenty something part series on Korea on yeah, on on debt. K. 1240 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:39,480 Speaker 1: Let's get into that, because I it's every few days 1241 00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:41,800 Speaker 1: I'm seeing a new article on software dot com from you, 1242 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:44,760 Speaker 1: and pretty well, yeah, that's because, um, so I do 1243 00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 1: this all the time when I try to like research 1244 00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:50,400 Speaker 1: a topic or an article. Is that I, um, I 1245 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 1: always underestimate how much research I should do. You underestimate 1246 00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:59,000 Speaker 1: or over overestimate. So anyway, long story short, what I 1247 00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:01,560 Speaker 1: do is I keep thinking I need to gather more information, 1248 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:04,280 Speaker 1: so I do more interviews more, just more interviews. And 1249 00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:06,960 Speaker 1: then I realized I have like fifty pages of notes 1250 00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:10,680 Speaker 1: that for one article, and I'm like, holy sh so 1251 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:13,560 Speaker 1: I ended up so this article is twenty pages long. 1252 00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 1: And also the detachment it's the Special Forces resident team 1253 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:21,080 Speaker 1: in Korea. They stay in South Korea. The guys, the personnel, 1254 00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:24,080 Speaker 1: individual people rotate in and out, but they stay there 1255 00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:27,920 Speaker 1: in Korea and UH provide a liaison function to the 1256 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 1: South Korean Special Forces. So and it's decay is a 1257 00:58:34,040 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 1: little bit bigger than an O D A plus some 1258 00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:39,800 Speaker 1: support guys, a couple of riggers, admin guys, whatever, and 1259 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:43,680 Speaker 1: UH they each guy on the debt is assigned to 1260 00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:47,760 Speaker 1: liaison with a different special Forces South Korean Special Forces 1261 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:50,320 Speaker 1: unit and they're the guy that knows everything about that 1262 00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:55,040 Speaker 1: special Forces brigade and everything about everything and their office 1263 00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 1: many times is right next to the brigade commander. And 1264 00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 1: we're talking about a E seven E eight that has 1265 00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:08,240 Speaker 1: tremendous influence over that's a big job for over doctrine training. 1266 00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:12,280 Speaker 1: Who is advising a Special Forces colonel. That's a big job. Yeah, 1267 00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 1: And there's over the years there's been some jealousy from 1268 00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 1: the officer cast that they don't like that there's n 1269 00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 1: c O s doing this, and they've tried to disband 1270 00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 1: the unit a few yeah.

UM. 1276 00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:47,560 Speaker 1: And I mean I I I would like to think 1277 00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 1: I did some good work on it, and I uncovered 1278 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:53,040 Speaker 1: some really interesting stuff like green berets going out with 1279 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 1: South Korean special Forces in the nine sixties hunting down 1280 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,479 Speaker 1: North Korean infiltrators.

Yeah, 1285 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 1: it was like the wild West. And you have to understand, 1286 01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:17,800 Speaker 1: like the Korean War wrecked that peninsula and there were 1287 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,960 Speaker 1: people thought it was never gonna recover. Um. The guys, 1288 01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:22,560 Speaker 1: some of the guys I interviewed who are in the 1289 01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:26,480 Speaker 1: detachment the nineteen sixties describe how in Soul, in the 1290 01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:30,959 Speaker 1: capital of South Korea, dirt roads people living in Chant 1291 01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:34,480 Speaker 1: Can you imagine that, I mean horse drawn carriages are 1292 01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:38,439 Speaker 1: mule drawn carts. Um, you know one of the guys 1293 01:00:38,480 --> 01:00:40,520 Speaker 1: provided me with all these pictures, and one of them 1294 01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:43,440 Speaker 1: is a guy riding a bicycle with a pig tied 1295 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 1: down to the back of the bicycle, and he's like, 1296 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:47,080 Speaker 1: what they would do is get the pig drunk on 1297 01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:50,160 Speaker 1: like soju until it passes out, and then tie it 1298 01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:52,440 Speaker 1: to like a little bench on the back of the motorcycle. 1299 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:56,280 Speaker 1: And that's how they transported the pig from one village 1300 01:00:56,320 --> 01:00:58,640 Speaker 1: to the next. So is pretty good. Yeah, they like it. 1301 01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:02,920 Speaker 1: There are very few have roads and it's in the 1302 01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 1: nine sixties. Yeah, there's like one hotel and soul And 1303 01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 1: look at it now. Man, I mean I've never been, 1304 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:10,560 Speaker 1: but I've seen it. It's amazing. I just came back 1305 01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,480 Speaker 1: and it is a triumph of capitalism. It is, isn't it. 1306 01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:16,880 Speaker 1: It's beautiful. That city reminds me my first impression of it. 1307 01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:20,040 Speaker 1: It reminds me of Switzerland. How well the Indo structure 1308 01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:23,120 Speaker 1: has developed, that good, how well thought out and well planned. 1309 01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:25,440 Speaker 1: It is um And I'm sure there's parts of it 1310 01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:27,360 Speaker 1: that aren't so rosy, but I mean it is the 1311 01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:31,120 Speaker 1: first world country. Yeah, it's part of the modern world. 1312 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:36,880 Speaker 1: All those um stereotypes or even preconceptions that I had 1313 01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:39,960 Speaker 1: of of East Asia. Um, you know, like something from 1314 01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:42,960 Speaker 1: an Indiana Jones movie, or it's not like that, like that, 1315 01:01:43,120 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 1: It's not like that at all. That's like, well, I 1316 01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:47,160 Speaker 1: spent quite a bit of time in Singapore's I said. 1317 01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:49,360 Speaker 1: But I already knew that about Singapore. I think people 1318 01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 1: might not think that about Korea. My father has spent 1319 01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:53,600 Speaker 1: a lot of time there because he was working in Singapore. 1320 01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:56,760 Speaker 1: It's an interesting place. Do you think that North lever 1321 01:01:56,880 --> 01:02:00,680 Speaker 1: be reunited with the South and anyway? Or is that? 1322 01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:03,840 Speaker 1: It's hard to say? I mean people there are different 1323 01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:06,240 Speaker 1: people with different opinions. Um, some of the people I 1324 01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:09,000 Speaker 1: interviewed say, yeah, it could happen tomorrow for some of 1325 01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:11,600 Speaker 1: the reasons I was saying, obviously, Um, there are other 1326 01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:13,400 Speaker 1: people who are like, you know, I used to think so, 1327 01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:18,240 Speaker 1: but I'm very skeptical so much now. Um, I think. 1328 01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 1: I think it's possible. I think, but it's something that 1329 01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:24,400 Speaker 1: we have to plan for and be ready for it 1330 01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:26,919 Speaker 1: and be ready for and there are like some things 1331 01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:31,440 Speaker 1: we can do, like propaganda operations. There are some positive 1332 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:34,000 Speaker 1: signs like so in the past, North Korea had such 1333 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:37,479 Speaker 1: a stranglehold over the people of the country. The North 1334 01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:41,480 Speaker 1: Koreans thought they were the lucky ones right in the south. 1335 01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:44,320 Speaker 1: The South are the ones. They have their living under tyranny. 1336 01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:47,160 Speaker 1: Look at them, they're suffering. They're suffering over there. So 1337 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:50,360 Speaker 1: that's how propagandas they were. That's that was in the past. 1338 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:54,400 Speaker 1: Now today in the present. Um, most of the people 1339 01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:57,120 Speaker 1: in North Korea they know that they can't be under 1340 01:02:57,160 --> 01:03:00,320 Speaker 1: any illusion. Now they're now they're aware. Like one story 1341 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 1: that a Special Force in sergeant major was telling me was, um, 1342 01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:07,040 Speaker 1: they learned this through North Korean defectoris was that the 1343 01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 1: North Koreans have been growing marijuana and selling it to 1344 01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:15,080 Speaker 1: the Chinese. The Chinese are in exchange. Part of the 1345 01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 1: payment is UM DVDs from South Korea Gee and the soaps, 1346 01:03:21,440 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 1: the South Korean soap operas have become very popular in 1347 01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:27,440 Speaker 1: North Korea. And the people after lights out, you know, 1348 01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:31,240 Speaker 1: they're they're getting their DVDs and putting the forbidden DVDs. 1349 01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:34,280 Speaker 1: And that's kind of how that stuff happens though. That's 1350 01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:36,680 Speaker 1: how that that's how that that cascade maybe starts to 1351 01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 1: go because you know, instead of like you said, as 1352 01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:42,840 Speaker 1: a military like let's know, like these tastes of culture, 1353 01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 1: these tastes of like glimpses of freedom that doesn't go 1354 01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,840 Speaker 1: away once. Once you know something, you can't uh know it. 1355 01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:53,440 Speaker 1: It was a culture, a country that trusts itself, that 1356 01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 1: has freedom. You know, you open it up and you 1357 01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:59,360 Speaker 1: you let people see and experience your country, and you 1358 01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:03,200 Speaker 1: believe that your system is really legitimately better. Evil countries 1359 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:05,520 Speaker 1: like North Korea are going to try to clamp down 1360 01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:10,160 Speaker 1: because they they're corrupt, they're criminals. Um. So the good 1361 01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:13,240 Speaker 1: news is that people of North Korea are learning about 1362 01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:15,360 Speaker 1: the rest of the world, and they're learning about their 1363 01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:18,800 Speaker 1: cousins over in the South. Um. And that could be 1364 01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:23,440 Speaker 1: a positive development that in time leads to some sort 1365 01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:26,560 Speaker 1: of um, some sort of change revision. Yeah, some sort 1366 01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:29,360 Speaker 1: of change. Yeah. I think that's that seems more more 1367 01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:36,000 Speaker 1: more possible or you know, supportable than you know, nuclear war. 1368 01:04:36,120 --> 01:04:38,480 Speaker 1: That's that could happen. Yeah, No, I don't think so. 1369 01:04:38,680 --> 01:04:41,720 Speaker 1: And the other interesting thing too is people have asked, 1370 01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 1: you know, well, why why is America still in South 1371 01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:49,120 Speaker 1: Korea and in a situation where today we partly thanks 1372 01:04:49,160 --> 01:04:51,800 Speaker 1: to the United States, partly because of the perseverance of 1373 01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:54,640 Speaker 1: the South Korean people we have gotten their military to 1374 01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:56,640 Speaker 1: the point where they can defend themselves. They can fight 1375 01:04:56,680 --> 01:05:01,040 Speaker 1: their own fight. They don't need America. But without American help, 1376 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:04,360 Speaker 1: the costs are going to be much higher. Their country 1377 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:07,280 Speaker 1: will again be wrecked, Whereas if the United States is 1378 01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:10,520 Speaker 1: there and helps and participates, the damage won't be as extensive. 1379 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 1: It'll still be extensive, but it won't be as bad. Yeah, 1380 01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:16,440 Speaker 1: there's gotta be. There's also the element of moral support too. 1381 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:18,840 Speaker 1: I think that was one of the things that you know, 1382 01:05:20,480 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 1: it's it's de turrence, it is de turrets. Yeah, because 1383 01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:25,680 Speaker 1: the North Koreans know if they invade, they're not just 1384 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:27,720 Speaker 1: going to be facing South Korea. They're gonna be facing 1385 01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:30,120 Speaker 1: the United States. Big guy, you might kick our ass 1386 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:34,320 Speaker 1: in the first twelve hours, but there's carrier groups coming. 1387 01:05:34,640 --> 01:05:37,800 Speaker 1: You're gonna yeah, funk with the second I d and 1388 01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:40,600 Speaker 1: do something like that, it's we're gonna crush that. They 1389 01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:42,880 Speaker 1: know they will be get out of the way, they 1390 01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:45,320 Speaker 1: will be facing Americans. Yeah. And that's an interesting thing 1391 01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:49,840 Speaker 1: too that I inquired about, was if with China get 1392 01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:55,080 Speaker 1: involved and the prevailing wisdom, I guess you could say, 1393 01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:58,960 Speaker 1: and this is partly based off of our talks, you know, 1394 01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:02,480 Speaker 1: back channel communitycations also with the Chinese, is that if 1395 01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:05,600 Speaker 1: the North Koreans instigate the war, they start the Chinese. 1396 01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:08,240 Speaker 1: That's the vibe. I mean, I'm nobody, I don't know, 1397 01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:10,680 Speaker 1: but I think that's what would happen, because again, there's 1398 01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:12,600 Speaker 1: nothing in it for them to not do that. There's 1399 01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:16,720 Speaker 1: also some thought that if if they did instigate the war, 1400 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:21,040 Speaker 1: if the North did that, the country that North Korea 1401 01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:24,080 Speaker 1: may end up being divided between the Chinese and the 1402 01:06:24,160 --> 01:06:28,280 Speaker 1: South Koreans. That's interesting. A number of different scenarios could 1403 01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:30,840 Speaker 1: play out, and I don't think I'm qualified to say 1404 01:06:33,120 --> 01:06:35,880 Speaker 1: we're a couple of oldest guys spitballing it. Yeah, you know, 1405 01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:39,320 Speaker 1: just to our reset for the people watching on Facebook Live, 1406 01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:41,880 Speaker 1: this is the first time that we're doing this. Uh. 1407 01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:43,880 Speaker 1: If you want to see more of this type of 1408 01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:45,800 Speaker 1: footage and here these type of shows, you can join 1409 01:06:45,920 --> 01:06:48,680 Speaker 1: now at Software Radio dot us where we're doing two 1410 01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:51,959 Speaker 1: shows a week. So if you're just tuning in. Editor 1411 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:55,240 Speaker 1: in chief of Soft Rep Green Beret Army Ranger Jack 1412 01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:59,800 Speaker 1: Murphy and Green Beret Mattress Sergeant Terry shapherd Uh. Back 1413 01:06:59,840 --> 01:07:01,800 Speaker 1: to what we were saying, though, so this this series 1414 01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:03,840 Speaker 1: of articles that you're writing. I noticed these were coming 1415 01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:05,920 Speaker 1: out while you were in South Korea. Did you do 1416 01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:07,920 Speaker 1: a lot of this research prior to going and then 1417 01:07:07,960 --> 01:07:10,040 Speaker 1: just put all these out? Yes, I was not doing 1418 01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:13,560 Speaker 1: that research while I was in the Philippines, and while 1419 01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:15,800 Speaker 1: I was in South Korea. I'd have been pretty impressive, 1420 01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,120 Speaker 1: you did, I do sleep once in a while, I 1421 01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:21,240 Speaker 1: have been pretty impressively. You know that that article took 1422 01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:24,280 Speaker 1: a really long time to write. It took months and uh, 1423 01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:26,560 Speaker 1: but then I had a twenty page article and I said, 1424 01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:29,040 Speaker 1: you know what this will give some you guys can 1425 01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:31,360 Speaker 1: run this while I'm abroad, so you know, while I'm 1426 01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:33,200 Speaker 1: not around that I'm not writing, you have something that 1427 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:35,680 Speaker 1: you can use well while we're hitting that because I 1428 01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:37,560 Speaker 1: know we're probably getting close to being on top. We 1429 01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:40,120 Speaker 1: talked a little bit before we started. We've talked quite 1430 01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:44,000 Speaker 1: a bit about Korea obviously, quick, uh, give us a 1431 01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:46,720 Speaker 1: quick right thing about the Philippines. What do you think 1432 01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:49,760 Speaker 1: with you tourte and what's what's the vibe with us 1433 01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:52,760 Speaker 1: with them? Where do you think that's going a big 1434 01:07:52,840 --> 01:07:56,560 Speaker 1: dumb question, But yeah, so the vibe, um, I would 1435 01:07:56,560 --> 01:08:00,800 Speaker 1: say overall positive ya UM do turt thing is one issue. 1436 01:08:00,880 --> 01:08:03,000 Speaker 1: But I would put it this way that the times 1437 01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:06,880 Speaker 1: between the United States and the Philippines are incredibly incredibly strung. 1438 01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:12,240 Speaker 1: Dis likes Trump despite the rhetoric, despite the rhetoric from 1439 01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:15,160 Speaker 1: the President of the Philippines saying you know this and 1440 01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:19,160 Speaker 1: that about America UM, or even our own president UM 1441 01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:21,960 Speaker 1: saying bombastic things. Yes, it does look like the two 1442 01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:25,600 Speaker 1: of them maybe working together. Also, like Trump, it's a 1443 01:08:25,600 --> 01:08:28,519 Speaker 1: little schizophrenics. So one day he's on a Chinese warship 1444 01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:30,879 Speaker 1: shaking hands. The next day he's on a Russian warship. 1445 01:08:31,360 --> 01:08:33,840 Speaker 1: But then I'm cruising around the country. I'm meeting First 1446 01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 1: Special Forces Group guys. I'm meeting guys from Seal Team seven. 1447 01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 1: I'm running into Marsak guys in some remote market on 1448 01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:44,240 Speaker 1: an island. So we are there, We're there, UM, and 1449 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:49,960 Speaker 1: the the institutional UM relationships between our two countries are 1450 01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:52,280 Speaker 1: so strong and have been there for so long. Like 1451 01:08:52,400 --> 01:08:57,439 Speaker 1: the Filipino Military Academy is modeled off of West Point UH. 1452 01:08:57,720 --> 01:09:01,519 Speaker 1: So many Filipino officers I met had been to UM 1453 01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:04,760 Speaker 1: done their pro postgraduate war school where the US in 1454 01:09:04,800 --> 01:09:07,000 Speaker 1: the US UM I met guys who have been to 1455 01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:09,599 Speaker 1: the Ranger school at Philip Benet remember those. I met 1456 01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:13,160 Speaker 1: guys who graduated from the Q course Stantup Bregg. I 1457 01:09:13,280 --> 01:09:17,800 Speaker 1: met guys who had been trained by green Berets in country. Um, 1458 01:09:18,280 --> 01:09:21,360 Speaker 1: so many, all these sorts of liaisons and relationships. So 1459 01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:25,720 Speaker 1: I don't think that our relationship with the Philippines is 1460 01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:28,519 Speaker 1: necessarily endangered. No, how did you get that thing? And 1461 01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:32,720 Speaker 1: I think you know that that's a relationship worth cultivating. 1462 01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:35,240 Speaker 1: I have to continue to cultivate it. Also, that's another 1463 01:09:35,280 --> 01:09:37,439 Speaker 1: thing we can just push China away from. Yeah, they're good, 1464 01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:41,800 Speaker 1: they're good people. You're right, Um. Pragmatically, strategically. Um, that's 1465 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:44,760 Speaker 1: another area that we're in the South China Sea and 1466 01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:46,920 Speaker 1: that we need to We need to check the Chinese 1467 01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:50,800 Speaker 1: aggression and sounds China see and the Philippines are could 1468 01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:53,640 Speaker 1: be a part of that. That the Philippine people, the 1469 01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:56,120 Speaker 1: people I interviewed, at least they feel that China is 1470 01:09:56,160 --> 01:10:00,439 Speaker 1: bullying them. You'll note that the Hague ruled on on 1471 01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:04,360 Speaker 1: favor of the Philippines, saying that yes, this the Scarborough Shoal, 1472 01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:10,400 Speaker 1: the Spratley Islands, that's Filippino sovereign territory. The Chinese should 1473 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:12,960 Speaker 1: not be doing that. Um. So they feel that they're 1474 01:10:12,960 --> 01:10:16,000 Speaker 1: being bullied by the Chinese. Then they believe that the 1475 01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:19,640 Speaker 1: you know, they're realistic. Yeah, the Philippines isn't gonna win 1476 01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:22,559 Speaker 1: in a war with China. If they did do something 1477 01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:24,160 Speaker 1: to us, we would let them into the country and 1478 01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:27,519 Speaker 1: then go like VC style guerrilla war on them. Um. 1479 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:32,080 Speaker 1: But they so they're looking for diplomatic options. Um So. 1480 01:10:32,479 --> 01:10:36,439 Speaker 1: I think that's the general vibe there. Another larger trend 1481 01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:40,439 Speaker 1: I was seeing was that the the Philippine government needs 1482 01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:44,160 Speaker 1: some work with um maintenance maintenance of equipment. So they 1483 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:48,320 Speaker 1: procure equipment from America and elsewhere, but they don't maintain it. 1484 01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:50,479 Speaker 1: So that's that happens a lot of places. That's a 1485 01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:55,120 Speaker 1: real problem. Yeah, we've been without constant American engagement. The 1486 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:59,880 Speaker 1: ship breaks whose starts breaking down, the helicopters, the night vision, 1487 01:11:00,120 --> 01:11:02,760 Speaker 1: the rifles, all that cool guy gear we give them. 1488 01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:05,360 Speaker 1: So that's something that UM. I hope that they can 1489 01:11:05,439 --> 01:11:07,960 Speaker 1: improve and maybe we can help them improve through some 1490 01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:12,479 Speaker 1: logistics work. Um. And then the other trend would be, uh, 1491 01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:17,200 Speaker 1: there is a movement to create a so calm organization 1492 01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:20,880 Speaker 1: In the Philippines they have an organization called so Calm, 1493 01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:23,439 Speaker 1: but unlike ours, it is a so Calm for their army, 1494 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:27,840 Speaker 1: so that white for all the branches, White Reaction Regiment, U, 1495 01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:31,719 Speaker 1: Scout Rangers, special Forces, just the army units. UM doesn't 1496 01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:35,679 Speaker 1: include NAVSAG, doesn't include MARSAG as of now, so they're 1497 01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:39,000 Speaker 1: working to do that. And likewise in Korea they don't 1498 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:42,360 Speaker 1: have a so Calm, and they're working on the idea 1499 01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:44,720 Speaker 1: has been planted and they're trying to work on that 1500 01:11:44,880 --> 01:11:47,280 Speaker 1: and both of those countries to actually get that established. 1501 01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:51,880 Speaker 1: There you go, Jack murfree back from Asia. Last question. 1502 01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:53,960 Speaker 1: I gotta ask Jack because I saw that in our 1503 01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:56,960 Speaker 1: little private writer's group. You have some pictures of the 1504 01:11:57,320 --> 01:11:59,840 Speaker 1: of the food there. So how's the cuisine? And in 1505 01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:02,120 Speaker 1: both South Korea and the Philippines, I saw like a 1506 01:12:02,160 --> 01:12:04,760 Speaker 1: pig roast, right, the food is awesome. Yeah, the pig roast. 1507 01:12:04,800 --> 01:12:06,800 Speaker 1: They do it over a spit in the Philippines and 1508 01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:08,880 Speaker 1: then they like cut it into like little squares so 1509 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,240 Speaker 1: you take the skin in the meeting. Amazing. The food 1510 01:12:12,320 --> 01:12:15,920 Speaker 1: was amazing. Um. Korea is very good too. I found 1511 01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:19,120 Speaker 1: some pretty interesting restaurants over there. I wanted to eat 1512 01:12:19,160 --> 01:12:21,160 Speaker 1: the live octopus. I didn't get the chance though, you 1513 01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:23,839 Speaker 1: know where they cut it and then the tentacles are squirming. 1514 01:12:23,920 --> 01:12:29,040 Speaker 1: And the Kim She was great. I love the Kim She. 1515 01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:31,720 Speaker 1: I always think of Kim She is more of a well, 1516 01:12:31,800 --> 01:12:33,800 Speaker 1: I guess it is all of Korea. Yeah, that's true, 1517 01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:35,479 Speaker 1: because I love Korean food. I don't know why I'm 1518 01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:38,519 Speaker 1: thinking North Korean South greates Probably the same quisine, Yeah, ain't. 1519 01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:43,559 Speaker 1: I didn't get to hang out with Kim John. Um, 1520 01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:47,240 Speaker 1: so yeah, No, food was great. The Philippines is a 1521 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:49,200 Speaker 1: is a blast. The Philippines has a little bit more 1522 01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:52,360 Speaker 1: of a wild West kind of climate to it. And 1523 01:12:52,479 --> 01:12:56,400 Speaker 1: I and the people there, I think like culturally I 1524 01:12:56,479 --> 01:13:00,280 Speaker 1: could drive with them pretty easily, you know, understand them. Um. 1525 01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:02,120 Speaker 1: Maybe it's because I was hanging out with the soldiers 1526 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:04,800 Speaker 1: so much and you kind of have that in common. Um. 1527 01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:11,439 Speaker 1: South Korea is like a true East Asian powerhouse country. Um, totally. 1528 01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:13,599 Speaker 1: It was interesting to me. This was really my first 1529 01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:16,439 Speaker 1: time traveling around Asia. You know, I've spent a lot 1530 01:13:16,479 --> 01:13:18,680 Speaker 1: of time in Europe, Middle East, spent some time in 1531 01:13:18,760 --> 01:13:21,880 Speaker 1: South America, a lot of time in Central America. Sometime 1532 01:13:21,960 --> 01:13:24,519 Speaker 1: in uh in Africa. This is my first time really 1533 01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:27,840 Speaker 1: being in Asia, and it's just interesting walking around um 1534 01:13:28,400 --> 01:13:30,360 Speaker 1: South Korea in a place that is, this is a 1535 01:13:30,760 --> 01:13:33,960 Speaker 1: totally different culture. I've never been to Asia at all. 1536 01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:36,879 Speaker 1: That's something that uh, that's something also that the American 1537 01:13:36,920 --> 01:13:39,360 Speaker 1: Special Forces guys need to understand, because I heard some 1538 01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:43,640 Speaker 1: complaints from the Filipinos. They're like, listen, we're not Afghans, 1539 01:13:44,439 --> 01:13:48,160 Speaker 1: We're not ab you don't come here from Afghanistan talking 1540 01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:50,559 Speaker 1: to us. Like where I thinking we're yeah, calling us 1541 01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:53,960 Speaker 1: haji and all that. Yeah, I thinking we're illiterate dirt farmers. Yeah, 1542 01:13:54,160 --> 01:13:56,600 Speaker 1: well that's interesting that actually, you know, I would think that, 1543 01:13:56,880 --> 01:13:58,519 Speaker 1: you know, that's because the first Group guys have been 1544 01:13:58,560 --> 01:14:01,200 Speaker 1: away from there. Maybe. I mean, I'm not a first 1545 01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 1: group guy, but you know, if everyone's been over in 1546 01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:06,720 Speaker 1: the sandbox in some some capacity, so I mean that's 1547 01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:09,960 Speaker 1: always been first group's responsibility. So yeah, you gotta remember man, 1548 01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:12,240 Speaker 1: that you know, they're not the same. Yeah, these guys 1549 01:14:12,320 --> 01:14:14,040 Speaker 1: have been in there good in the woods, you know, 1550 01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:16,040 Speaker 1: and a lot of them have more trigger time in 1551 01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:17,760 Speaker 1: the field than a lot of young green But I 1552 01:14:17,840 --> 01:14:20,040 Speaker 1: was gonna say that those guys have done the real 1553 01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:22,599 Speaker 1: thing for a long time, so don't insult them. Yeah, 1554 01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:25,160 Speaker 1: I mean doing like stuff we don't do anymore, like 1555 01:14:25,439 --> 01:14:29,439 Speaker 1: small old school field craft stuff, ambushes raise right, that 1556 01:14:32,240 --> 01:14:36,280 Speaker 1: tactical um and and at times up to entire battalion 1557 01:14:36,400 --> 01:14:39,360 Speaker 1: level movement to contact through the jungle where the battalion 1558 01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:41,720 Speaker 1: HQ is in the field. And if people don't know 1559 01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:46,080 Speaker 1: this that are listening, the jungle sucks. It's awful. I 1560 01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:49,960 Speaker 1: think that's probably my least favorite place on Earth to operate. 1561 01:14:50,120 --> 01:14:51,880 Speaker 1: I just I don't know, man, I just it just 1562 01:14:52,040 --> 01:14:55,200 Speaker 1: crushes me. I mean I never was in group there, 1563 01:14:55,720 --> 01:14:57,880 Speaker 1: but I went to you know, j OTC is is 1564 01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:01,040 Speaker 1: Jungle Jungle Training Corps s down in Fort Sherman. There 1565 01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:03,840 Speaker 1: was a recall JRTC but Panama and Panama and it 1566 01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:06,839 Speaker 1: was dude, I was like, this is awful. It's awful. 1567 01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:09,800 Speaker 1: It's awful. And because everything is, everything in the jungle 1568 01:15:09,880 --> 01:15:11,960 Speaker 1: just seems like it's there to kick your ass. You know, 1569 01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:13,960 Speaker 1: my buddy John Hudson, who was in that show with me, Dude, 1570 01:15:13,960 --> 01:15:16,080 Speaker 1: you're screwed. He's one of the chiefs here, instructors out 1571 01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:18,240 Speaker 1: for the for the Brits. He's great one of the 1572 01:15:18,320 --> 01:15:20,400 Speaker 1: best dudes I know. He's the guy who kind of 1573 01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:23,479 Speaker 1: just went off the reservation during his episode where he 1574 01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:25,680 Speaker 1: didn't even try with his challenge. Oh no, that was 1575 01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:28,320 Speaker 1: a different guy because I thought British. It was a British. No. No, 1576 01:15:28,479 --> 01:15:30,720 Speaker 1: he don't know. John would never go off the reservation. 1577 01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:33,040 Speaker 1: I don't think. Uh. The guy's like, I'm just gonna 1578 01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:36,080 Speaker 1: enjoy myself. That was Tom Moore. Yeah, yeah, No. John 1579 01:15:36,160 --> 01:15:38,080 Speaker 1: Hudson is the dude you want to have with you 1580 01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:40,880 Speaker 1: if things go bad.

He and by the way, 1605 01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:42,760 Speaker 1: he grew up on the Northwest coast in the United States. 1606 01:16:42,800 --> 01:16:45,360 Speaker 1: He's from Washington State. He goes, man, I hate fish, 1607 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:48,800 Speaker 1: and he talked because man, I hate fish.

It was a dude, It was in a 1616 01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 1: glass jar. I opened up and said, guys, time out. 1617 01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:11,200 Speaker 1: Open up and everyone's like, oh my god. Everybody goes 1618 01:17:11,240 --> 01:17:13,919 Speaker 1: away so gross. But I was like, this is clean protein, 1619 01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:16,760 Speaker 1: it's calories. Let's just see. And you know it right 1620 01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:19,160 Speaker 1: off the bat. When he started his survival stuff, He's like, man, 1621 01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:21,080 Speaker 1: I ain't gonna eat that. You didn't need it, and 1622 01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:23,439 Speaker 1: then didn't towards the towards the end, I believe he 1623 01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:25,560 Speaker 1: was like, man, I should have kept that. Yeah, you 1624 01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:28,960 Speaker 1: don't turn down food ever. Ever, we know that in 1625 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:31,759 Speaker 1: the Army. To man, when you you never turned down child, 1626 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:34,400 Speaker 1: because you a couple of days go by, you're like, man, 1627 01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:36,240 Speaker 1: that that actually was probably would have been a good 1628 01:17:36,280 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 1: thing to have. Well, you're talking about the Korean cuisine, man, 1629 01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:42,719 Speaker 1: that I'm I wish I could try it, just because 1630 01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:45,439 Speaker 1: people watching this from all around the world, if to realize, 1631 01:17:45,479 --> 01:17:47,400 Speaker 1: like we're in a part of New York that's a 1632 01:17:47,439 --> 01:17:50,679 Speaker 1: few blocks from Kay Town, which is all Korean food 1633 01:17:50,800 --> 01:17:53,240 Speaker 1: right by Penn Station. I grew up on Long Island 1634 01:17:53,320 --> 01:17:57,720 Speaker 1: next to Flushing Queens, which if you want to eat 1635 01:17:58,240 --> 01:17:59,800 Speaker 1: Korean food, it's like my favorite. If you want to 1636 01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 1: eat good Filipino food, I believe it's on First Half 1637 01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:06,200 Speaker 1: and there's a restaurant called Jitney's Filipino Place. Yeah, my 1638 01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:08,160 Speaker 1: my friend took me there once and he uh he 1639 01:18:08,280 --> 01:18:11,000 Speaker 1: made me eat the ballut. I will I would watch that. 1640 01:18:11,080 --> 01:18:12,400 Speaker 1: I will not know you don't want to eat that. 1641 01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:14,760 Speaker 1: I will not eat that. It was I'll tell you this, 1642 01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:17,400 Speaker 1: it was the first two thirds of it were very good, 1643 01:18:17,960 --> 01:18:20,479 Speaker 1: actually delicious, but then I got to the crunchy stuff 1644 01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:24,480 Speaker 1: at the bottom. I'm not eating that exactly. It's fertilized 1645 01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:30,240 Speaker 1: chicken egg and they're they're fermented. I'm not eating it now. 1646 01:18:30,479 --> 01:18:31,800 Speaker 1: But now, if you gave that to me and do 1647 01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:34,880 Speaker 1: your screw, I might not eat it the first day. 1648 01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:36,439 Speaker 1: I might not eat it the second day, but I 1649 01:18:36,560 --> 01:18:39,080 Speaker 1: probably chugged that ship down the third day, like yeah, 1650 01:18:39,080 --> 01:18:41,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like that's but like just 1651 01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:42,519 Speaker 1: to do it. I mean, I guess if you're there, 1652 01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:45,880 Speaker 1: that's nothing too. Yeah. Yeah, and and and you know 1653 01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:48,160 Speaker 1: we also have to a special Forces guys. We have 1654 01:18:48,360 --> 01:18:51,280 Speaker 1: to eat. You got to eat what what? What's there? 1655 01:18:51,600 --> 01:18:53,599 Speaker 1: Really in a way because you kind of can insult people, 1656 01:18:53,680 --> 01:18:56,000 Speaker 1: so like, you know, when the right when they put 1657 01:18:56,040 --> 01:18:59,320 Speaker 1: food out, you can't go I'm just I'm a vegan, 1658 01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:01,200 Speaker 1: or like he can't say like I don't eat that 1659 01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:03,840 Speaker 1: because that's kind of that's pretty insulting to them. So 1660 01:19:03,920 --> 01:19:05,640 Speaker 1: you just gotta eat it. I'm so glad I never 1661 01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:09,960 Speaker 1: had to eat ballut the only time I nevergot Actually, 1662 01:19:10,320 --> 01:19:13,160 Speaker 1: they actually sell that ship in restaurants here.
