1
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:12,120
Speaker 1: It's that time, time, time, time, luck and look, Michael

2
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: Verie Show is on the air.

3
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:22,920
Speaker 2: It's Charlie from BlackBerry Smoke.

4
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 3: I can feel a good one coming on.

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 4: It's the Michael Berry Show.

6
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 5: Any attempt to restrict drinking and driving here is viewed

7
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 5: by some as downright undemocratics.

8
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 2: Two six packs shut.

9
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,559
Speaker 6: Our first voicemail of the week. We haven't had voicemails

10
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 6: in a while. Romore is Jim falling down on the job.

11
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 6: He did take a little vaca. I was complaining about

12
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 6: Jim taking a vacation last week, and Ramone said, listen,

13
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 6: mister slave driver. On his vacation, he was still putting

14
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 6: in from early in the morning till ear in the afternoon.

15
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 6: His wasn't staying here all day like you want everybod

16
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 6: I did to do budget lazy people. Our first voicemail

17
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 6: of the week comes from an unknown male because he

18
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 6: doesn't tell us his name. He wants to know who

19
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,119
Speaker 6: the Republicans would be running if Donald Trump weren't running again.

20
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 3: Very good question.

21
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 5: You know, it occurs to me that if Donald Trump

22
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 5: wasn't running, what would the Republicans do? What? I can't

23
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 5: even imagine any other person. I don't disantos. I can't

24
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 5: even imagine. I can't think of anybody who has got

25
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 5: the pluck that Donald Trump has and has displayed, and

26
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 5: the seriousness of intent that Donald Trump has has actually displayed,

27
00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 5: and how uncomfortable he makes the demo, which is in

28
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 5: my opinion, just a wonderful thing. So if he wasn't running,

29
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 5: we are so lucky that he's running, because if he

30
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 5: wasn't running, there is no close second without Donald Trump

31
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 5: there is. We would be done for. I mean, I

32
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 5: don't know that people really realize that is how important

33
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 5: he is.

34
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 3: Right now in this time.

35
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 6: I was I've been missing these phone calls. I'm not

36
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 6: allowed to your mom, Michelle from Alephant. By the way,

37
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 6: if you ever want to leave a voicemail, all you

38
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 6: have to do is called seven three one thousand when

39
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 6: we're not on the air, uh and it'll take you

40
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 6: to the voicemail. And if you leave a voicemail, it's

41
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 6: very likely going to make it on the air. We

42
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 6: can't put everyone on the air because we get more

43
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 6: than we can play, but we do enjoy we listen

44
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 6: to every one of them. We come in on Monday,

45
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 6: we're overloaded because people sometimes they get a little lit

46
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 6: up or whatever the reason. But people will leave us

47
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,519
Speaker 6: more messages over the weekend, especially Friday night, and we

48
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 6: love listening to them. And we're going to try to

49
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 6: get back to doing the voicemuls. We've been so focused

50
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 6: on election stuff that we haven't done as much on

51
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 6: the voicemail thing. Michelle from Alabama is a school teacher

52
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 6: who has an iron Ran book recommendation for people who

53
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 6: don't like to read.

54
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 7: Hello, Michael, this is Michelle from Alabama. I was listening

55
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 7: to Friday's Afternoon podcast and you were listing books that

56
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 7: people need to read and you mentioned iron Ran. I

57
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 7: like all of her books, and honestly, they are, like

58
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 7: you said, very heavy, very sick reading. So for people

59
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 7: who don't necessarily like to read, I would like to

60
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 7: recommend her novella Anthem. It is just shy of one

61
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 7: hundred pages and quickly makes the point that she's trying

62
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 7: to make. I've actually taught it in my sophomore English classes.

63
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 7: Thank you have a good one.

64
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 6: Our next caller, Larry, is a black fellow. Now how

65
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 6: do I know this because I can't see him. Simple

66
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 6: he calls me Mike only black people call me Mike,

67
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 6: just my entire life. He left a voicemail with a

68
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 6: prediction that Kamala Harris would become the first black woman

69
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 6: president one way or another.

70
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 8: Hello, Michael, my name is Larry, and I don't know

71
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 8: you might have discussed this on your show before, but

72
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 8: even if you have, I just called to say that

73
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 8: I really believe that Kamala Harris will be the first

74
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 8: black woman president of the United States. Actually, she could

75
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 8: already be president right now. All Biden handsOn news just resigned,

76
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 8: and when he does that, she's already vice president and

77
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 8: she'll become president and they can even use her. No now,

78
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 8: if they need to use her becoming president to increase

79
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 8: her chances of being elected president, they'll do it before

80
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 8: the election. But if they go through the election and

81
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 8: when Trump wins, if he wins, then they can just

82
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 8: remove Biden right then, if you won't go, and that

83
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 8: lets Harris become president, even if she can only serve

84
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,840
Speaker 8: them just a few weeks, that'll still make her the

85
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 8: first black woman president.

86
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 2: And at that point, a whole.

87
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 8: Lot of people, a lot of black people are going

88
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 8: to celebrate. They'll they'll celebrate as much as some of

89
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 8: them did when Oja was acquitted after killing Nicole and

90
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 8: Ron go Ron Golan just just my idea, my thought.

91
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 8: Tell them what you think.

92
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 6: Shane Garcia is doing her part to help us win

93
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 6: this election.

94
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 3: We need more.

95
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:09,039
Speaker 9: My name is Shane Garcia. You're absolutely right, Michael about Democrats.

96
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 9: I tried to have a conversation with my sixty three

97
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,239
Speaker 9: year old uncle and when I asked him to tell

98
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 9: me about different issues that Kamala represented, he could tell

99
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 9: me none. I literally brought up valid points to him

100
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 9: Clinton that you played the other day in the eighties

101
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 9: saying about illegal immigrants. I bought it about her being

102
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 9: the mistress that her daddy got her job for with

103
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 9: a sixty year old man who actually I saw on

104
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 9: the news and she became vice president, talking about how

105
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 9: he helped her political career. I mentioned to him about abortion,

106
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 9: how women can have abortions up until the ninth month

107
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 9: which Shami was murdered. He literally said to me that

108
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 9: where am I getting me facts from? It sounds like

109
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 9: I'm from a cult. I let him know, no, I'm

110
00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 9: ann dog. I'm a woman and these views and things,

111
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 9: and the problem with the Democratic Party is if you're

112
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 9: born a certain races. Understood you're a Democrat. But again,

113
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 9: no one knows the real issues I presented to you. Issues.

114
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 9: I said, all this stuff Kamala wants to do now,

115
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 9: she's doing it supposedly as a presidential candidate. But she's

116
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 9: been a vice president for three and a half years.

117
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 9: Why has she spearheaded no tax on tips? Why has

118
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 9: she spearheaded the border?

119
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 10: She was the border's art.

120
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 9: Why hasn't she done other things?

121
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 2: Just anything?

122
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 11: Really?

123
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 9: I even told him Michelle Obama, as a president's wife,

124
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 9: read adapted to food tarts so people could be healthier.

125
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 9: The truck they had dealt with from years ago, she revamped.

126
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 9: So you have a platform now and you've done nothing.

127
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 9: And I said, and honestly, the Democrats were unfair to

128
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 9: other Democrats when they allowed Biden to stay in office,

129
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 9: knowing he had an illness. They didn't even give Democrats

130
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 9: a chance to pick a real running mate against Trump.

131
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 9: And so now you have a problem with me because

132
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 9: I say Trump is an anthem. Oh in ps, I

133
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 9: think makes a country look weak when a woman runs it.

134
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 3: Because if a.

135
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 9: Woman is running anything, you know what that means there

136
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 9: are men under her, Whether it's a corporational company. Why

137
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 9: has no one else stepped up? Why has no man

138
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 9: stepped up? But that's what we're living now. Transgender, all

139
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 9: these other things that don't matter, don't mean anything, but now,

140
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 9: all of a sudden, they mean everything. I'm so glad

141
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 9: the hurricane came through because if it not had come through,

142
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 9: I would have never found out about your show. And

143
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 9: I have truly downloaded your podcast. I've been listening to

144
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,760

00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,920

146
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 9: You are awesome. I will continue to listen because you're

Speaker 1: drive home?

152
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 2: You bet it would.

153
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: It's the Friday Drive Home on the Michael Barry Show.

154
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 6: Monday was Labor Day and we ran a best of show.

155
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 6: The rest of us were ready to work, but Ramon

156
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 6: cried that he wanted the day off for Labor Day,

157
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 6: so we gave him the day off for manuel labor.

158
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 6: So we ran the show that we did the top

161
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 6: submitting their nominations for the Best Dude Movie. We randomly

162
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 6: pulled some of the voicemails and we put them to Freebird,

163
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,200

Speaker 3: And this is to fire you up to get you

283
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 3: ready for this election.

284
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 11: What starts here changes the world. I have a few

285
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 11: suggestions that might help you on your way to better world. Now.

286
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 11: While these lessons were learned during my time in the military,

287
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 11: I can assure you that it matters not whether you

288
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 11: ever served a day in uniform. It matters not your gender,

289
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,119
Speaker 11: your ethnic or religious background, your orientation, or your social status.

290
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 2: Our struggles in.

291
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 11: This world are similar, and the lessons to overcome those

292
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 11: struggles and to move forward, changing ourselves and changing the

293
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 11: world around us will apply equally to all. So here

294
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 11: are the ten lessons I learned from basic Seal training

295
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 11: that hopefully will be of value to you as you

296
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 11: move forward in life. Every morning in sealed training, my instructors,

297
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 11: who at the time were all Vietnam veterans, would show

298
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 11: up in my baratroom, and the first thing they do

299
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 11: is inspect my bed. If you did it right, the

300
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 11: corners would be square, the covers would be pulled tight,

301
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 11: the pillow center just under the headboard, and the extra

302
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,440
Speaker 11: blanket folded neatly at the foot of the rack. It

303
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 11: was a simple task, mundane at best. That every morning

304
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 11: we were required to make our bed to perfection. It

305
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 11: seemed a little ridiculous at the time, particularly lie to

306
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,640
Speaker 11: the fact that we were aspiring to be real warriors, tough,

307
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 11: battle hardened seals. But the wisdom of the simple act

308
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 11: has been proven to me many times over. If you

309
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 11: make your bed every morning, you will have accomplished the

310
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 11: first task of the day. They will give you a

311
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 11: small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to

312
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 11: do another task, and another and another, and by the

313
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,680
Speaker 11: end of the day that one task completed will have

314
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 11: turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed will also

315
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 11: reinforce the fact that the little things in life matter.

316
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,439
Speaker 11: If you can't do the little things right, you'll never

317
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 11: be able to do the big things right.

318
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,919
Speaker 2: And if, by chance, you have a miserable day, you.

319
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 11: Will come home to a bed that is made, that

320
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 11: you made, and a made bed gives you encouragement that

321
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 11: tomorrow will be better. So, if you want to change

322
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 11: the world, start off by making your bed. During seal training,

323
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 11: the students. During training, the students are all broken down

324
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 11: boat crews. Each crew has seven students, three on each

325
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 11: side of a small rubber boat and one cox and

326
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 11: to help guide the dinghy. Every day your boat crew

327
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 11: forms up on the beach and is instructed to get

328
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 11: through the surf zone and paddle several miles down the coast.

329
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 11: In the winter, the surf off San Diego can get

330
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 11: to be eight to ten feet high, and it is

331
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 11: exceedingly difficult to through the plunging surf unless everyone digs in.

332
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 11: Every paddle must be synchronized to the stroke count of

333
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 11: the Coxwin. Everyone must exert equal effort or the boat

334
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 11: will turn against the wave and be unceremoniously dumped back

335
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 11: on the beach. For the boat to make it to

336
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 11: its destination, everyone must paddle.

337
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 2: You can't change the world alone.

338
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 11: You will need some help, and to truly get from

339
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 11: your starting point to your destination takes friends, colleagues, the

340
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 11: goodwill of strangers, and a strolling Coxin to guide you.

341
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 11: If you want to change the world, find someone to

342
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 11: help you paddle. Over a few weeks of deical training,

343
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 11: my seal class, which started with one hundred and fifty men,

344
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 11: was down to just forty two. There were now six

345
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,399
Speaker 11: boat crews of seven men each. I was in the

346
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 11: boat with the tall guys, but the best boat crew

347
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 11: we had was made up of the little guys, the

348
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:14,479
Speaker 11: Munchkin crew we called them.

349
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 2: No one was over five foot five.

350
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 11: The Munchkin boat crew had one American Indian, one African American,

351
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,159
Speaker 11: one Polish American, one Greek American, one Italian American, and

352
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 11: two tough kids from the Midwest. They outpaddled, out ran,

353
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 11: and outswam all the other boat crews. The big men

354
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 11: and the other boat crews would always make good natured

355
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 11: fun of the tiny little flippers the Munchkins put on

356
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 11: their tiny little feet prior to every swim. But somehow

357
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 11: these little guys from every corner of the nation in

358
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 11: the world always had the last laugh. So any faster

359
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 11: than everyone in reaching the shore, long before the rest

360
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 11: of US. Seal training was a great equalizer. Nothing mattered

361
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 11: but your will to succeed. Color, not your ethnic background,

362
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 11: not your education, not your social status. If you want

363
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 11: to change the world, measure a person by the size

364
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 11: of their heart, not by the size of their flippers.

365
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 11: Several times a week, the instructors would line up the

366
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:16,479
Speaker 11: class and do a uniform inspection.

367
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 2: It was exceptionally thorough. Your hat had to be.

368
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 11: Perfectly starched, your uniform immaculately pressed, your belt buckles shiny

369
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 11: and void of any smudges. But it seemed that no

370
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 11: matter how much effort you put into starching your hat,

371
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 11: or pressing your uniform or polishing your belt buckle, it

372
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 11: just wasn't good enough. The instructors would find something wrong.

373
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 11: For failing uniform inspection, the student had to run fully

374
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,880
Speaker 11: clothed into the surf zone, then wet from head to toe,

375
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,439
Speaker 11: roll around on the beach until every part of your

376
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 11: body was covered with sand. The effect was known as

377
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:55,120
Speaker 11: a sugar cookie. You stayed in the uniform the rest

378
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 11: of the day, cold, wet, and sandy. There were many

379
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,439
Speaker 11: a student who just couldn't accept the fact that all

380
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 11: their efforts were in vain. No matter how hard they

381
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 11: tried to get the uniform right, they went unappreciated. Those

382
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 11: students didn't make it through training. Those students didn't understand

383
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 11: the purpose of the drill. You were never going to succeed.

384
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,440
Speaker 11: You were never going to have a perfect uniform. The

385
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 11: instructors weren't.

386
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 2: Going to allow it.

387
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 11: Sometimes, no matter how well you prepare or how well

388
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 11: you perform, you still end up as a sugar cookie.

389
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 2: It's just the way life is. Sometimes.

390
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 11: If you want to change the world, get over being

391
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 11: a sugar cookie, and keep moving forward. Every day, during training,

392
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 11: you were challenged with multiple physical events, long runs, long swims,

393
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 11: obstcle courses, hours of calistenics, something designed to test your metal.

394
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,919
Speaker 11: Every event had standards times you had to meet. If

395
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 11: you failed to meet those times those standards, your name

396
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 11: was posted on a list, and at the end of

397
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 11: the day, those on the list were invited to a circus.

398
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 11: A circus was two hours of additional calisthenics designed to

399
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 11: wear you down, to break your spirit, to force you

400
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:03,640
Speaker 11: to quit.

401
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 2: No one wanted a circus.

402
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 11: A circus meant that for that day, you didn't measure up.

403
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 11: A circus meant more fatigue, and more fatigue meant that

404
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,719
Speaker 11: the following day would be more difficult and more circuses

405
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 11: were likely. But sometime during seal training everyone everyone made

406
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 11: the circus list.

407
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 2: But an interesting thing happened to those who were constantly

408
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 2: on the list.

409
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 11: Over time, those students who did two hours of extras

410
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 11: calisthenics got stronger and stronger. The pain of the circuses

411
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 11: built inner strength and physical resiliency.

412
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 2: Life is filled with circuses. You will fail, and you will.

413
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 11: Likely fail often and it will be painful, it will

414
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 11: be discouraging at times, it will test you to your

415
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 11: very core. But if you don't, if you want to

416
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 11: change the world, they'll be afraid of the circus.

417
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 2: It's another work week in the books.

418
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:03,440
Speaker 3: Gain you geared up for the weekend to Friday drive home.

419
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 2: On the Michael Barry Show.

420
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 3: I'm sharing this speech by Admiral mcgraven.

421
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 6: If you missed it earlier, you have to hear the

422
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 6: earlier part you go back on the podcast because I

423
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 6: want you to understand we have to do more than

424
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 6: bash Kamala Harris.

425
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 2: We have to fire up our.

426
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:25,399
Speaker 3: Troops to save this country that's on us.

427
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 11: At least twice a week, the trainees were required to

428
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 11: run the obstacle course. The obstacle course contained twenty five obstacles,

429
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 11: including a ten foot wall, a thirty foot cargo net,

430
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,399
Speaker 11: a barbed wire crawl to name a few, But the

431
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 11: most challenging obstacle was a slide for Life. It had

432
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 11: a three level thirty foot tower at one end and

433
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 11: a one level tower at the other.

434
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,359
Speaker 2: In between was a two hundred foot long rope.

435
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,880
Speaker 11: You had to climb the three tier tower and once

436
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 11: at the top you grabbed the rope, swung underneath the rope,

437
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 11: and pulled yourself hand over hand until you got to

438
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,959
Speaker 11: the other end. The record for the obstacle course had

439
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,640
Speaker 11: stood for years. When my class began in nineteen seventy seven.

440
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 11: The record seemed unbeatable until one day, as student decided

441
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 11: to go down the slide for life head first. Instead

442
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 11: of swinging his body underneath the rope and inching his

443
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 11: way down, he bravely mounted the.

444
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 2: Top of the rope and thrust himself forward.

445
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 11: It was a dangerous move, seemingly foolish and fraught with risk.

446
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 11: Failure could be an injury in being dropped from the course.

447
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 11: Without hesitation, the students slid down the rope perilously fast.

448
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 2: Instead of several.

449
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 11: Minutes, it only took him half that time, and by

450
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 11: the end of the course he had broken the record.

451
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 11: If you want to change the world, sometimes you have

452
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 11: to slide down the obstacle's head first.

453
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 2: During the land warfare.

454
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 11: Phase of training, the students are flown out to San

455
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,719
Speaker 11: Clemente Island, which lies off the coast of San Diego.

456
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 11: The waters off San Clementy are a breeding ground for

457
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 11: the great white sharks. To pass seal training, there a

458
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 11: series of long swims it must be completed.

459
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 2: One is the night swim.

460
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 11: Before the swim, the instructors joyfully brief the students on

461
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:12,199
Speaker 11: all the species of sharks that inhabit the waters off

462
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 11: San Clemente. They assure you, however, that no student has

463
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 11: ever been eaten by a shark, at least not that

464
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 11: they can remember. But you are also taught that if

465
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 11: a shark begins to circle your position, stand your ground,

466
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 11: do not swim away, do not act afray. And if

467
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 11: a shark hungry for a midnight snack darts towards you,

468
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 11: then summons up all your strength and punch him in

469
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 11: the snout and he will turn and swim away.

470
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 2: There are a lot of sharks in the world. If

471
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 2: you hope to.

472
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 11: Complete the swim, you will have to deal with them.

473
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 11: So if you want to change the world, go back

474
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 11: down from the sharks. As Navy seal is, one of

475
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 11: our jobs is to conduct underwater attacks against enemy shipping.

476
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 11: We practice this technique extensively during training. The ship attack

477
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 11: mission is where a pair of sealed divers is dropped

478
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,479
Speaker 11: off outside an enemy harbor and then swims well over

479
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 11: two miles underwater, using nothing but a death gage and

480
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 11: a compass to get to the target. During the entire swim,

481
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 11: even well below the surface, there is some light that

482
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 11: comes through. It is comforting to know that there is

483
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 11: open water above you. But as you approach the ship,

484
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 11: which is tied to a pier, the light begins to fade.

485
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 11: The steel structure the ship blocks the moonlight, It blocks

486
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 11: the surrounding street lamps, It blocks all ambient light. To

487
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 11: be successful in your mission, you have to swim under

488
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 11: the ship and find the keel, the center line and

489
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 11: the deepest part of the ship. This is your objective.

490
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 11: But the keel is also the darkest part of the ship,

491
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 11: where you cannot see your hand in front of your

492
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 11: face from the ship's machinery is deafening, and where it

493
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 11: gets to be easily disoriented and you can fail. Every

494
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 11: seal knows that under the keel at that darkest moment

495
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 11: of the mission is the time when you need to

496
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 11: be calm, When you must be calm, when you must

497
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 11: be composed, when all your tactical skills, your physical power,

498
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 11: and your inner strength must be brought to bear. If

499
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 11: you want to change the world, you must be your

500
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 11: very best in the darkest moments. The ninth week of

501
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 11: training is referred to as Hell Week. It is six

502
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 11: days of no sleep, constant physical and mental harassment, and

503
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 11: one special.

504
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 2: Day at the mudflats.

505
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 11: The mudflats are an area between San Diego and Tijuana

506
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 11: where the water runs off and creates the Tijuana Slews,

507
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 11: a swampy patch of terrain where a mud will engulf you.

508
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 11: It is on Wednesday of Hell Week. Lets paddle down

509
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 11: to the mudflats and spend the next fifths trying to

510
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 11: survive this freezing cold, the howling wind, and the incessant

511
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 11: pressure to quit from the instructors. As the sun began

512
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 11: to set that Wednesday evening, my training class, having committed

513
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 11: some egregious.

514
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 2: Infraction of the rules, was ordered into the mud.

515
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 11: The mud consumed each man till there was nothing visible

516
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 11: but our heads.

517
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 2: The instructors told us we could.

518
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 11: Leave the mud if only five men would quit. Only

519
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 11: five men, just five men, and we could get out

520
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 11: of the oppressive cold. Looking around the mud flat, it

521
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 11: was apparent that some students were about to give up.

522
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 2: It was still over eight hours till the sun came up.

523
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 11: Eight more hours of bone chilling cold, the chattering teeth

524
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 11: and the shivering moans of the trainees were so loud

525
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 11: it was hard to hear anything. And then one voice

526
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 11: began to echo through the night. One voice raised in song.

527
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 11: The song was terribly out of tune, but sung with

528
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 11: great enthusiasm. One voice became two, and two became three,

529
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 11: and before long everyone in the class was singing. The

530
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,840
Speaker 11: instructors threatened us with more time in the mud if

531
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,479
Speaker 11: we kept up singing. But the singing persisted, and somehow

532
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 11: the mud seemed a little warmer, and the wind a

533
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 11: little tamer, and the dawn not so far away. If

534
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 11: I have learned anything in my time traveling the world,

535
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 11: it is the power of hope, the power of one person.

536
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 11: A Washington, a Lincoln, King Mandela, and even a young

537
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 11: girl from Pakistan Malala.

538
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 2: One person can change the world by giving people hope.

539
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 11: So if you want to change the world, start singing

540
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 11: when you're up to your neck in mud. Finally, a

541
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 11: seal training, there's a bell, a brass bell that hangs

542
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 11: in the center of the compound for all the students

543
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 11: to see.

544
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 2: All you have to do is quit. All you have

545
00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 2: to do to quit is ring. The bell.

546
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 11: Ring the bell, and you no longer have to wake

547
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 11: up at five o'clock. Ring the bell and you no

548
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,479
Speaker 11: longer have to be in the freezing cold swims. Ring

549
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 11: the bell and you no longer have to do the runs,

550
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 11: the obstainle course, the pt and you no longer have

551
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 11: to endure the hardships of training. All you have to

552
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 11: do is ring the bell to get out. If you

553
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 11: want to change the world, don't ever ever ring the bell.

554
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 2: It will not be easy.

555
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 11: Start each day with a task completed. Find someone to

556
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 11: help you through life. Respect everyone. Know that life is

557
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 11: not fair and that you will fail often. But if

558
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 11: you take some risks, step up when the times are

559
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 11: the toughest, face down the bullies, lift up the down trodden,

560
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 11: and never ever give up. If you do these things,

561
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:53,479
Speaker 11: the next generation and the generations that follow we'll live

562
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 11: in a world far better than the one we have today,

563
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 11: and what's started here will indeed have changed the world

564
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 11: for the better.

565
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 3: Go fight when there is your charge. This is your nation,

566
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 3: this is your moment.

567
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:10,239
Speaker 2: Own it
