Like my 58 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: best day is when I get off the stage after 59 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: being in front of a big group, just because being 60 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: in front of people and sharing stories and then interacting 61 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: it's nice too because I get it. I get to 62 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: talk to thousands of people personally a weak face to face, 63 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: and it's nice and reassuring to find out that the 64 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: country is not as bad as as a lot of 65 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: people on the on the news on TV like to 66 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: say it is and social media, Oh yeah, social media 67 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: is the worst. Some of the best advice I have 68 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: for people. If you want to be um, have a 69 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: positive day, get out of bed, don't check social media. 70 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: Sell at least noon. I've I've been doing that as smart. 71 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: It's yeah, turn turns the moment you wake up that 72 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: and it is always just negative. It's always trety. Yeah, 73 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: it's it's um. I went for a walk this morning, 74 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: and try to always do get you know, drink a 75 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: big glass of water before you get your coffee, and 76 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: then get outside, let the sun hit you, walk for 77 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: a little bit, do something athletic. It's because the people 78 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: on social mendia aren't you know. It's like it's like 79 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: being on television. You know, you might be talking to 80 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: a few million people, but you're talking to them one 81 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: and two's in their own living rooms. So people on 82 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 1: social media they're hollering. It's they're yelling at their screen. 83 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: They're not yelling at a real person. And but but 84 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: you read it the negative, especially negativity about yourself, until 85 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: you get used to it, like get that thick skin 86 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: that's like this is it's almost entertaining, because the deeper 87 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: you get into the Twitter sphere, the funnier the haters 88 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 1: actually get there. I mean they're vicious, but but very creative. 89 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: It's also all created I think to be. I mean not, 90 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: I think it is created to be. Oh yeah, oh 91 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: totally is. Yeah. Well that's everything from the algorithms that 92 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 1: decide because you bought this on Amazon, that they're gonna 93 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: send you the ads for this other stuff. That's gonna 94 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: be like right now, I'm getting all these um ads 95 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: for huge those huge um bean bag chairs because I 96 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: want one, and so I've been shopping for them and 97 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: now it's like all I see is these kick ass 98 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: bean bag chairs. It turned turned into beds, and yeah, 99 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's all geared to to get you 100 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: addicted and and to hate yourself and you're like no 101 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: longer a human being, you're just a consumer. Yeah that's all. Yeah, 102 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: but yes, so social media is interesting. You stay off 103 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 1: that as long as you can, um get a workout in. Yeah, 104 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,239 Speaker 1: I agree with take you everything with a grain of salt. 105 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: Like I said, I meet I meet so many people 106 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: a week. I've yet to meet a hater, but they're 107 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: all over the internet. No, never, I don't think really 108 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: to anyone's face. I mean, you know, you got the 109 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: guy in New Zealand got the egg popped over his head. 110 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: Did he probably deserve that? That was crazy? And then 111 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: then then he deserved that. That's That's what it's like, 112 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 1: us talking talking ship in person, which you can get 113 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: punched in the face. People are less likely to touch 114 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: it when they can actually get punched in the face. 115 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 1: Well said man, before we get in that pretty good, 116 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: But before we get into like any topics of substance here, 117 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,599 Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you about this. I did hear 118 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: the original Howard Stern interviews, which was incredible Howard's I mean, 119 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: I think everybody would agree, who really, you know, is objective. 120 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: Howard's like the best. Howard Howard is the best interview 121 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: in the world. Yeah, I heard he's getting caught by 122 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: Joe Rogan. I see, I've not been on his show, 123 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: but I know the differences. Though. I feel like, so 124 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: if you go on Howard you're a featured guest, which 125 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: you've been, I feel like it's forty minutes or so, 126 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: and he really gets into everything. He gets into everything 127 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: sometimes Rogan and I love Rogan. Can I listen to 128 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: three hours of you know, Alex Jones or anything for example, 129 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: like it goes really long. If you're listening to Alex 130 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: Jones for how many hours, it will be Alex Jones branting. Yeah. 131 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: But Rogan's podcast, I mean it's an episode there two 132 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: to three hours and do at times I'm like, all right, 133 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: I tune out after a while cutting that baut But 134 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: I love Rogan. I don't know how Howard though. I 135 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: think I mean, obviously he is so experienced, he's been 136 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: doing it forever. But with Howard stern Is, I think 137 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: he can prepare so in depth so quickly. I think 138 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: that he mean, he obviously prepares for everything he does, 139 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: but then he takes like the for me, it was 140 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: like four or five songs they were playing while he 141 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: was kind of going through the stuff. He just knew everything. 142 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: So he's a really smart guy, really good guy. And 143 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: for for me, it was the you know, the first 144 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: the first three or four minutes is is trying to 145 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: get over being star struck because you leave the green room, 146 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: take it right, and then you're just in Howard Stern 147 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: Stern's um studio. Then the next like a holy ship 148 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: it is. So I've been listening toward Sar before I 149 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: was a seal, and one of the first times I 150 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: heard him was was was right when I was at 151 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: my first day of butts. So it's the first three 152 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: minutes is star struck. The second two minutes are you're 153 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: sitting on the couch, how much dried seamen? Am I 154 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: actually entering out? But and he's getting to the interview, 155 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: he just and he's so good at getting you in 156 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: the moment and then just hitting me with a you know, 157 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: not a mud suck, but like a really cool question 158 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: that no one's ever asked. Yeah, I loved it. I 159 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: had a blast. I go back any time I was 160 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: going to ask you about that. Because I'm originally from 161 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: here in New York. Howard has always been a presence 162 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: in New York. He's always been looked at as like 163 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: this legendary radio personality in New York W and yeah 164 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: and then and then to K rock and everything. So 165 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: I was wondering, as a guy in Montana, it might 166 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: be the stereotype I have in my head. But when 167 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: you think of the people who hate Howard Stern, they 168 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: tried to like ban him when his book is number 169 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: one I think of like those people in Montana are 170 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: are a lot of those people who are unfamiliar with him, 171 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: and they see this man as the anti Yeah, because 172 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,839 Speaker 1: we didn't get him in Montana. We didn't get a 173 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: lot of things. Yet when when I left Montana it 174 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: was it was January not I mean like the internet 175 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: had barely been invented, you know, um, and i'd heard 176 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: of Howard Stern. Didn't really get a chance to fall 177 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 1: and you can't constrain online. But when I got to Buds, 178 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: someone was playing him. One of my four roommates was 179 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:04,599 Speaker 1: playing him, and I heard that voice that that I 180 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: kind of voice something that guy's really good. Was like, 181 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: that's Howard Sterning. So when I said I listened to 182 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: him before Buds, I mean like five minutes before Bud started. 183 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: Howard was honest. It was really cool. And then just 184 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: to you went like little things looking back in life, 185 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: life is just the blink of an eye. I'm listening 186 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: to Howard Stern as an E two at Buds and 187 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: uh having like my father's telling me keep journals because 188 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: someday someone's gonna run and read your book. I'm never 189 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: thinking I'm thinking who the Fox don't want to read 190 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: my book? And I'd never in a million years, oh 191 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be on that show. It's it's just crazy 192 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: if you think back in times, like everything you're planning 193 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: for life is what was happening around you as you're 194 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: planning for something different. Never it never seemed to work 195 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: out the way it does. But just weird, weird, weird. 196 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: How small world? Would it be fair to say you've 197 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: kind of become a regular there too? You did the 198 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: wrap Up show several times because I've tuned in and there, 199 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: I'm able to get in there once in a while. 200 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: When they invited me to be on the wrap Up Show, 201 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: which is really cool. Baba boys, all of the guys 202 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: that worked that are awesome. My friend Tim Montana was 203 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: on there and I went with him, And I've been 204 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 1: there a few times just because I like to. I 205 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: like to get in there and just kind of be 206 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: there because if if stuff's going on, especially on you 207 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: know radio that's NonStop, even like twenty four hour news 208 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: cycle whatever, if you're there that they might invite you 209 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 1: in just to talk for a few minutes and and 210 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 1: anything that's serious. As you know, it just it's just 211 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: fun to get on there. And that's also the thing 212 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: about working in that building is like you never know 213 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: who's just gonna run into around the whole way because 214 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: all the shows are right there. Yeah, and it's I mean, 215 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: Howard's got his own spot, but like everyone it's it's 216 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: it's everyone's got a really cool studio always right there. 217 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 1: The big thing with you can take the pictures. I've 218 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: never been to Howard's spot, so I think that was 219 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: part of his deal at this controls he gets that part. Yeah, yeah, 220 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: but he deserves it. And I mean you've done a 221 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: ton of shows over there and then just media in general, 222 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: and and I guess now you're getting time to just 223 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: do other things that are important to you, as you said, 224 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: working with Vats and yeah, the Foundation. You're a grateful 225 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: nation that I started on getting to spend more time 226 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: with because I got out of the Navy just under 227 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: seventeen years. Didn't know what the hell I was gonna do, 228 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 1: And it's scary for every veteran that gets out. Even 229 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: if you retire, it's like, Okay, I'm getting what in 230 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: my base pay, but the mortgage is going to be 231 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: do every year now, So a lot of us don't 232 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: know what they're qualified for. But it turns out the 233 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 1: qualified for a lot more than they realize. And especially now, 234 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 1: a lot of employers they don't want to hire a 235 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 1: lot of people out of college because they have some 236 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: worthless degrees based on on political correctness, something that nobody 237 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: cares about, like it's radio somehow, you know. I mean 238 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: like the very few you know, welders out there a 239 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: few people with with with vote vocational, technical skills or whatever. 240 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: So when when veterans and you're especially when you're here 241 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: in New York, I feel like in Montana, it's probably 242 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: a totally different. It's different. It's a different, it's different, 243 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: but in a in a better way, you know, in 244 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 1: that you're gonna do something that you can get a 245 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: job right out of high school with. And that's important 246 00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: because those skills are going away. Just like when employers 247 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: we're talking, we're talking major companies of every from every industry, 248 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: they don't they would rather take someone with the skills 249 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 1: of a special operator of a ranger. You know, uh, 250 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 1: that that that that knows how to work as a 251 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: team lead at a young age, have been leading up 252 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: until retirement or close to retirement and the loyalty that 253 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: comes with it. Like I do, I don't care personally 254 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: about myself. I care about the mission of the team, 255 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: and that's what a lot of these people bring. So 256 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: I'm able to spend a lot more time explaining that 257 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: what your grateful nation does to these industries, and it's individualized. 258 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: So we'll we'll find out where the where the operator 259 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: wants to work with city, which industry, and then we 260 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 1: make the introduction and we can do like a nine 261 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: or ten or twelve month um mentorship and then they 262 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: hire them to like a major um managerial level position 263 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 1: where they're managing major products, project projects. So I'm able 264 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: to do more of that now that it's slow, it's 265 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: slowed down a little for me. I've been able to 266 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 1: I'm not jumping trying to get through every hoop right now. 267 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 1: So it's um still busy, but I get I actually 268 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: hired a green break colonel to run the foundation, Rob Carilla, 269 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: because I just one of those typical Navy seal things. 270 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: Well I'll get out and I'll sell sunglasses and I 271 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,319 Speaker 1: can run this company and blah blah blah terms out. 272 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: You know, I was an enlisted shooter.

He's a great guy, so he's running it. 275 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: And because his connections were getting a lot of army 276 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 1: guys out um and again special operators right now, but 277 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: hopefully we can expand to to everybody anyone that wants. 278 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 1: I mean, we try to hook everyone up, and we're 279 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: specializing in special operators right now.

It would it 302 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: would be interesting to see what it would be about, 303 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: because there's been so many movies already about some of 304 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: the stuff, some of the stuff my team did. I 305 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: was wondering your opinion on that. Actually, do you think 306 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: it's gotten oversaturated to a point, because you know, after 307 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: a point where you've put out a book, Randon's put 308 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: out a book, Marcus Latrelle and like all these things 309 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: were huge successes at a certain point, there's kind of 310 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: like a drop off from there. I don't I don't know, 311 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: because there's so many different stories. I'm mentioned earlier that 312 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: there's people out there with a much more dangerous job 313 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: than than uh than I had, And that's the truth. Like, Okay, 314 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: we as navy seals were we're hitting point targets at 315 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: night with night vision and on our terms. Think about 316 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: the Marines and Helmet Province that are walking through mine 317 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 1: fields that legitimately have friends get shot and killed blown up. 318 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: I mean, those are stories. Every every every person has 319 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: a story that I think people need to know for 320 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: a number of reasons. One because you've got to realize 321 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: that they're very small percentage of Americans and Coalition forces 322 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: over there doing a job that most people wouldn't do. 323 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: And it doesn't matter a lot of people that disagree 324 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: with the where it's fine, they'll say that if you 325 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: think you're fighting for freedom, you're wrong. It's not necessarily 326 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: case because I do believe if we're over there fighting 327 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: that that doesn't give them a time to to to 328 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: to to rest and recover and attack because you know 329 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: they're not going to forget about us. Um like the 330 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: bin Line raid.

But you've been following this 377 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 1: or yeah, I'm familiar with the story. I know what's 378 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: happening there. I think you know, al Qaeda is one 379 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: of those things where they're in the they're in the marathon, 380 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: they're in the long game, and and they were probably 381 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: happy with Isis because it gave them time to breathe 382 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: even though the people over there in uh you know, 383 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: the eastern part of Afghanistan and the airbase is doing 384 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 1: drones strikes are concentrating. We we could we could shift there, 385 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 1: and there's there's thousands of Alkaieda fighters out there that 386 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 1: want to hit us again. And I'm in Azawa Harry 387 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 1: who took over obviously for Osama bin Laden once once 388 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: we got him. He's just not dynamic and he's not 389 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: he's not even. He's nothing to listen to, and they 390 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,120 Speaker 1: don't we don't take him serious. He's he's a he's 391 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 1: a doctor that from Egypt that blah blah blah blah blah. 392 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: Hams has got the name recognition, he's got the reasons. Um. 393 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: He because he lost his first brother, Sayed bin Lad 394 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: was killed in the drone striking I want to say 395 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: two thousand nine. Obviously, his brother khalibin Lad was killed 396 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: about nine seconds before his father, Osama bin Laden, and 397 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: he's got the he's been he's been shaped for this 398 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: and he's had the raining he was he was raised 399 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: by the Iranians um, which is crazy to think about. 400 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: But between the the sony Shia think and now he's 401 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: he's about thirty, I think, and he's at the point 402 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 1: where he could be the face for another rise of 403 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 1: al Qaeda, which they don't really do in front of 404 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: us like Isis did and they're not huge into the 405 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: beheading videos there. My saying is that Isis wants to 406 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: stab you in the front and cut your head off 407 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: on television, and al Qaeda will stab you in the back. 408 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: In ten years look at look at they hit the 409 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,360 Speaker 1: World Trade Center. They wanted to blow one up into 410 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 1: the other. Well, they didn't succeed, but they didn't forget, 411 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: and they came back in two thousand one, and they're 412 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: gonna come back, and that's what this is kind of 413 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 1: what they need. So fortunately we have men and women 414 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 1: who are tracking him, and he's gonna get cocky and 415 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: stick his head out and then I don't think it'll 416 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: be across border type assault. I think it'll be a 417 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: drone strike or something like that. It's interesting that you've 418 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: kind of befriended people in the Trump family. I just 419 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: see from your social media and all that. Do you 420 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,199 Speaker 1: ever give them like your take on what should be 421 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: done foreign policy wise, because it's been in especially a 422 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: lot of changes we've spoken about on the show with 423 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: Maddis no longer in the administration, who I think people 424 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,479 Speaker 1: saw as less of an interventionist kind of guy as 425 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: opposed to a John Bolton. You know, yeah, I I've 426 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: gotten to know them well. I met Donald Trump when 427 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: he was before he was a president. I met President 428 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: Trump before he was a president because I was working 429 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: with a a firm that represented a company that grooms 430 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: uh women for Miss USA and he was running yeah, 431 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 1: and so I got an opportunity to sort of host 432 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 1: one of the smaller ones invited to the Miss USA pageant, 433 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: and I met Donald invited to like all that's where 434 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: you should do who you are, And so I met 435 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: judging miss US first.

I don't per se give them 478 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: foreign policy advice. I mean I've I've you know, they'll 479 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: see what I say on Twitter, and I agree with 480 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: him a lot and I disagree with him like the 481 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: military parade thing I was, I was big against against that. 482 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 1: We don't need that. That's that's not a good idea, 483 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: and here's why. And I kind of would say it, 484 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: but they don't. Really. I'm not in the cabinet by 485 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: any means, but I would think he would value, you know, 486 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: the advice of someone like you, who's been there, who's 487 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: done that, who's lived the wife of an operator how 488 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 1: many years it's almost seventeen, Yeah, I mean, I would 489 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: hope a valuable opinion. It seems like once you get 490 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: to a certain level of even officers, especially at the 491 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: general officer level, when you get to this between oh six, 492 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: oh seven and then, um, I think that they stopped 493 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: worrying about what the people on the ground think and 494 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 1: start worrying about politics. Because there are a lot of 495 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: people on the ground, even junior officers, I don't mean 496 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 1: even junior offers three and and and oh four and 497 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: then the like eight nine that they don't they don't want, 498 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: they don't listen to them anymore. Even though we could 499 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: have won a lot of these things simply by listening 500 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: to people on the ground, we wouldn't be in the 501 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: spot we're in now in Afghanistan if we would have 502 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: listened to what guys on the ground we're saying. In 503 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 1: two thousand five, just there was I had I had 504 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 1: a Navy seal admiral when I saiggest as something in 505 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: a meeting, say, I said something about I E. D 506 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 1: s and suicide bombers. He said, there's no such thing 507 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: as I E. D S and suicide bombers in Afghanistan, 508 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: which was true then. But we're like, we know that, sir, 509 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: but there will be Yeah, well there won't be. Like well, yeah, 510 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 1: but there will be, but there won't. Yeah, okay, sir, 511 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 1: there will be. And then look who we have now. Now, 512 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: now you you get enough high ranking officers, politicians and 513 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: lawyer is involved, you get a situation like Afghanistan like okay, 514 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: what do we what are we supposed to do? Now? Well, 515 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,679 Speaker 1: you know what's interesting is that now we have people 516 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,400 Speaker 1: in a position of authority in Congress like Dan Crenshaw 517 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 1: have seen the same thing as you've seen. I was 518 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,919 Speaker 1: wondering your take on on how he feels about foreign 519 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: policy as well as yours, because one thing I've learned 520 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 1: from doing this show is that not just the military, 521 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 1: but the special operations world in general is definitely not 522 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: a monolith. Like when he was on with Jack Murphy 523 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: and I they vehemently disagreed on foreign policy. You know, 524 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: Jack is a guy who who says like, are we 525 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: gonna be in these nations forever? You know? And uh 526 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: Dan Crenshaw on the show was saying, look, we've been 527 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 1: in Germany for how many years we've been in Japan? 528 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: You know, maybe we do have to have a long 529 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 1: term presence in Iraq and Afghanistan. And these guys disagreed 530 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: on that type of stuff. I was want, do you Yeah, 531 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 1: I can't speak for either one of those two. I 532 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 1: can see pretty much both sides. But it's it's very different, 533 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: um staying in Nazi Germany than it is in Afghana. Stand, 534 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 1: there's a different there's a in Germany. It's almost like 535 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: the German people who knew what happened and then they 536 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 1: kind of they want to they want to try to 537 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: rebuild and help Afghanistan were now invaders. And the ideology 538 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: that we're fighting isn't going to be won by by 539 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: marines driving humbes through the three highways in Afghanistan. And 540 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: I mean now we're trying to apparently make peace with 541 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,120 Speaker 1: the Taliban, which makes people say why did we even 542 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 1: go in the first place. Well, I mean, well, yeah, 543 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: look at John Walker Lens getting out of prison in May. 544 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,239 Speaker 1: It's just gonna release him to Ireland. Like he's an 545 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 1: American talent and he city was associated when he's shooting 546 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: at those guys you know Dan, well he was Um 547 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: he should have been executed years ago. Um. Just we 548 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: with the thing, I think the only other than this 549 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 1: city of New York. The problem is people keep forgetting 550 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 1: to never forget and negotiating with the talent. I mean, 551 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: that could have worked. As soon as we crushed al 552 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: Qaeda and as soon as they went to Pakistan could 553 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 1: have worked. It's it's it's the same thing with the 554 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 1: Bath party in Iraq. It's like, what do you do 555 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 1: when you find the Saddam Judi and Cus are out 556 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: of the They're out of there, but they're hidden. Now, 557 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: you keep the military at place, let them run their thing, 558 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: and then we'll find them eventually. With the Taliban. The Taliban, 559 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: first of all, if they thought we were serious, they 560 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: would have given us been lat They don't want any 561 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: they don't want anyone any foreigners, including al Qaeda in 562 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: in there. Now we are going to renegotiate, and they're 563 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: gonna do the same stuff they did when when the 564 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 1: Soviets left. You know, they're gonna tell the people they're back, 565 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: they're gonna live under light, Sharia whatever, and then as 566 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 1: soon then they're gonna just start turning the screws again. 567 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 1: The pruption will come back again. It's but so we 568 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:31,719 Speaker 1: stay there, I mean, what are we gonna just keep 569 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: building schools to get blown up by them, keep getting 570 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 1: people killed for no reason and having people on the ground, 571 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 1: just say, do do the minimum amount you can to 572 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 1: make sure you and your friends get home. There's there's nothing, 573 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: There's nothing there. I mean what I mean what I 574 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: think we should do in Afghanistan. As you keep a 575 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: presence in Bogram at the airfield, so it's like it's 576 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: almost like a carrier. But you know, you have you 577 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: have the pilots there. If and when training camps get rebuilt, 578 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 1: you bomb them and then you can have the pilots. 579 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,239 Speaker 1: Haven't green being coffee in a few hours anyway, Um, 580 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: keep keep the skeletal government in cobble with you know, 581 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 1: some diplomats and obviously security force, and then probably stuff 582 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: in places like Jelalabad for the cross border UM operation. 583 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: When you hit the drones strikes for senior level, I'll 584 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: kainda guys. And and if you know, if you've never 585 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: been in Jelalabad, uh, I have not the face they 586 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: have over there. It's like going to a European resort. 587 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 1: I have heard that in the show actually um Sean 588 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: Parnell was talking all about that on the show. Yeah, 589 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,479 Speaker 1: it's pretty impressive about how he was just saying that, 590 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 1: you know, being a guy on the ground doing the work, 591 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: then going back there, it's unbelievable. Like where am I? Yeah, yeah, 592 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: it's a personal showers, your personal room. They got a 593 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,400 Speaker 1: bar with a dance floor on some of it. Yeah, 594 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: according to Sean Parnell on the podcast, Yeah, you could 595 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: get a full wax And he was like a guy 596 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 1: he was serving with said I'm gonna get waxed. And 597 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: it's just a funny story. That was really funny, And 598 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: Sean Partnell was like why And then he was just 599 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 1: thinking that this He's like, we're in the middle of 600 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: you know, supposedly in the combat. Yeah, and and this 601 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: guy wants to get his dick waxed. That's pretty funny. 602 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 1: And anything. Any story with a full wax is good. 603 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:04,919 Speaker 1: I don't really care what part of the world you're in. 604 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: He's a funny it's oh yeah, yeah, I know Sean 605 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: Um it's he's got a great book too.

Okay, 607 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: I thought military didn't write books. I got a lot 608 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 1: of ship for that. Yeah, I'm de probably just talked 609 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: about the same I'm the only one who's ever written 610 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: a book. According to Brandon, like guys who gave him 611 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,719 Speaker 1: ship for writing a book. Yeah, so of course they will. Well, 612 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,239 Speaker 1: I've guys that gave me ship that they get out 613 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: and like, hey, how do I get on the speaker circuit? 614 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 1: And when do I starting? How much do I get paid? 615 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: Type ship? It's like, oh, we're good now. Yeah. No, 616 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: it's just it's the bubble. It's the it's the bubble 617 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: of being in the teams, being in the military, where 618 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 1: you're there. I explained to people, Look, when you're in 619 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: high school and that girl breaks you heart in high 620 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: school is the most important thing in your life. It's 621 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: the most important thing in your life until it ends, 622 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: and it ends, and then you go to college, and 623 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: college is the most important thing in your life, nothing 624 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: like and then it ends. And so like with the Navy. 625 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: You join the Navy, you're in the teams, you're here, 626 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: you're it's the greatest, and then it ends. And as 627 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: soon as you leave, the Navy does not care about you, 628 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: and they're not paying the bills. And that's the realization. 629 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: The bubbles there um, long live the brotherhood, all that 630 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 1: good stuff. But your mortgages do again. I was I 631 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: love to tell people, Yeah, you tell me about the 632 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: silent professional the day after your first mortgage payment after 633 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: you got out of the military. Well, since we're talking 634 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 1: about this, Brandon actually wanted me to bring it up 635 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 1: with you, and it was something he wanted to get 636 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: in with you. But as you know, Brandon is apparently 637 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: important traveling everywhere. But he was saying, um, you know, 638 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: and you've heard him talk about this, but these guys 639 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: on Twitter and Instagram who like attack other guys in 640 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 1: the community. We all know about Brandon's kind of feud 641 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: with Chris Osmond and that type of thing, and he 642 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: just feels like it's a bad look for the community, 643 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: setting a bad example. And I just wanted to get 644 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: your take on that. Well, my take is, first of all, 645 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: what is it? What? What is it? What are you 646 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 1: getting out of it? Other than if you're attacking someone else, 647 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: what are you getting out of it? Nothing? And you're 648 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: spreading negativity And again being in the bubble, you've got 649 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: to realize when you get to a public a platform, 650 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: it's not just your guys watching you. It's not just 651 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: other Navy seals or other other green Bray's world. It's 652 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: a there's there's a lot of potential like this. It 653 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 1: could affect recruiting. There's there's fourteen year old boys out 654 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 1: there watching this and they want to see something. Not 655 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: that they want to, but they should be seeing something else, 656 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: not this this petty whatever it is that I don't. 657 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: I mean I I try not to engage in it. 658 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: A couple of cocktails and you know, I might have 659 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 1: with some people, but but it there's no reason to 660 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: eat your own I don't. I don't think successful people 661 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: want to see other people succeed. And I think part 662 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: of the problem is, um some people must be upset 663 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: with decisions they made in the past and they're taking 664 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: out on other people or something like that. But I 665 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 1: see no need for jealousy. Jealousy is just a weird 666 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: reflection on yourself. And we know when I see people succeed, 667 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: it's great. Good for you for sure, because you're You're 668 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: a guy who has succeeded so well, the guy that 669 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: succeeded because of other guys, and that was at a 670 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: position where I could go to This is where I 671 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: learned it. I would go to Seal Team six every 672 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: day and work with people who were better than me, 673 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 1: and instead of being jealous and trying to undermine them, 674 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: what is what habits is that guy doing? Why is 675 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 1: he so good at this? How how is he getting 676 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: to the draw so quick? Why is he moving to 677 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: the house so smooth? What can I do too? I 678 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: want to beat him, yes, but I'm not gonna just 679 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: undermine it. I'm not gonna try to drag him down 680 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: to my level. I'm trying to get up to his 681 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 1: for sure. Um. I wanted to ask you as well. 682 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,479 Speaker 1: I had Kristen Beck in here and asked her about it. 683 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: I I don't know if you know Jake's wig is 684 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: also a former steal I'm I'm familiar with Jake, and 685 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: I think I met him like twice when he was 686 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: a Team eight. I think cool, Yeah, great guy. I 687 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: asked him his take. He's a he's a tough guy too. 688 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: By the way, I first, I haven't ever seen I've 689 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: heard stories and I've seen him physicalist. He's he's he's 690 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 1: pretty impressive about the Top Shot stuff, like allegedly from 691 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: what I heard, you know, he had a really bad 692 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: image on on Top Shot. It's like the villain of 693 00:31:56,200 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 1: that show. But from yeah, what I heard actually you 694 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: know behind the scenes stuff is that Jake was winning 695 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 1: every single contest and they were like, we can't have 696 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: this guy winning everything, and they were giving him guns 697 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: that don't work, and he's want to what assholes not him? 698 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: So yeah, um so anyway back to what I was asking, Uh, 699 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: it's yeah, pretty crazy story. But yeah, so I asked Jake, 700 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 1: I asked Christen, wanted to get your take as well 701 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 1: on what's you know, happening with Chief Eddie Gallagher. And 702 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of different um sides to this, 703 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: I think because the guy's accusing Chief Eddie Gallagher of 704 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: war crimes are are also seals, and and there's been 705 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: you know, questioning what's the motive and and also what 706 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: did he do. I would question the motive. First. I 707 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 1: was not there for any of this, and I've never 708 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: met Chief Gallagher. Um, if we're at a position where 709 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: our own guys in a combat zone or turning in 710 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: their guys, that's a sad state of affairs right there. 711 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: That's that's something that should be handled internally, and then 712 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: the leadership inside of their should handle it. Some of 713 00:32:56,320 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: the accusations I've heard, whether he was ran codomly shooting 714 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: people all the time, and he was upsetting his junior guys. 715 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: I've been a combat You are not allowed to randomly 716 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: shoot civilians anywhere. You can't just get away with it. 717 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 1: That's not gonna happen. I mean, it's just it won't happen, 718 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 1: just based on based on all the technology that we have. Uh, 719 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: you know, I've heard that he was running his guys 720 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: too hard and something like that. And then uh, I mean, see, 721 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 1: there's all these rumors, and I hate the rumors because 722 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: you don't know what's true. There was the rumors on 723 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: they say, well on social media, of him with a 724 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: decapitated head, which I'm pretty sure by now we would 725 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 1: have seen, right, It's not I don't I haven't seen it, 726 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: but they're saying that stuff. And then and then with um, 727 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 1: n c I S is all over him. And the 728 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 1: biggest problem with n c I S is they made 729 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: a really good show about n c I S. So 730 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: they think they're cool in there, and they're I mean, 731 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: they're they're, they're they're I can't even talk about them. 732 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to get anything on the record. They're 733 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: they're pretty much disgusting. They're trying to they're trying to 734 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: convict our own guys. So um, um, he's got a 735 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: problem with n c I S. And I guess again, 736 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: rumor mill I don't want to start anything there there 737 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: they they they were a fraid of retributions from him, 738 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: so they locked him. And now he's been in how 739 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 1: long has been locked up seven months now a lot 740 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: and so it'll be it'll be over over half a 741 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 1: year when he gets his first day in court that 742 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:13,320 Speaker 1: he's been locked up in general population with convicted sex offenders. 743 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: Um and he and I mean not saying that he's 744 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: in danger of that, but like, these are horrible people, 745 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: and they've got Chief Gallagher, who I consider a hero, 746 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 1: you know, at the at the at at the at 747 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,439 Speaker 1: the least and a defender of of not only these guys, 748 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: but of our country. And now he's he's being treated 749 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: like a criminal evenly hasn't had his dayn court yet. 750 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: It's it's a shame. He should be with his family. 751 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 1: Look what Look what they're doing to his family.

What just horrible stuff 754 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 1: they're doing. He should at least he should, I mean, 755 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: if anything, he should be a house arrest or something. 756 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: But he's he's in a break and wearing meromor I 757 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 1: wish I knew more about it right right now, but 758 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: it's just I don't I don't like it. No, I 759 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: I hear you. And it's something we've discussed on the 760 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: podcast at length. Jack Murphy though is talked about it. 761 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:54,879 Speaker 1: It's been written about it, you know the News rep 762 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,879 Speaker 1: dot com. And the thing that Jack said to Jake, 763 00:34:57,920 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: and they see him to be somewhat on opposing side, 764 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 1: and this was let's say these accusations are true, that 765 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 1: he's murdering you know, children with hatchets and and this 766 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 1: type of thing that was mentioned. Is this who we 767 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 1: are and and you know, should you not out guys 768 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,399 Speaker 1: for doing that type of thing? And you know, Jake 769 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 1: talked about the savagery that isis has done of murdering pilots, 770 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: you know, in cages, but Jack's rebottled of that. On 771 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 1: the show that we did with him, was you know, 772 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: are we just going to be doing the same. Yeah, 773 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 1: but it's it's one thing to be murdering kids with hatchets, 774 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: it's another thing to be accused of murdering kids with hatchets. 775 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 1: It just it's getting, it's getting. There's no proof of 776 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: any of this. And I'm serious when I say that 777 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: if you're doing this, someone's someone's gonna say something. You're 778 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 1: gonna stop, You're gonna get pull off the battlefield. So 779 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 1: why do you think these seals came out and did this? 780 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,760 Speaker 1: I I don't. I can't even speculate. Uh, they obviously 781 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,439 Speaker 1: have a bone to pick. And I've you know again, 782 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,359 Speaker 1: I hate the rumors because I've having been places where 783 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: people weren't but they make judgment. Kind of makes me 784 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,720 Speaker 1: hesitant to say to say anything. But it just sounds 785 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:04,280 Speaker 1: like of a not a rivalry, but just uh, they 786 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 1: don't like them. And I've heard whisper campaigns and crap 787 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: like that. So I don't know. I wish I was. 788 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: I wish you would get quicker day in court with 789 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: evidence because it's it's just not regardless, it's a shame. 790 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: What's happening to him right now? Yeah, I don't like it. Well, 791 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. Um. I I do see both 792 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 1: sides on on you know, some level. The thing that's 793 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 1: just interesting though, is like I said that the two guys, 794 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 1: it's two guys right accusing him. I don't even know 795 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 1: that I can look, yeah, but we can both check out. 796 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: But yeah, when I when I just see that these 797 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 1: guys are former seals, you know, it's not it's not 798 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 1: like it's at top level of the military going after seals. 799 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 1: It's seals going after fellows. And you can't do that. 800 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta you gotta maintain the trust, especially 801 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 1: in a combat zone like that, and they shouldn't be 802 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 1: doing that. Uh So I was wondering some other stuff 803 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: that we could hit on here. Oh you know what 804 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 1: you brought up before, Tim Montana. You were in his 805 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: video for the one that which would We filmed the 806 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: video a couple of years ago that you need to 807 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: check out on YouTube called hill Billy Rich. Yes, we 808 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 1: talked about that. I think Hillbilly Rich is um. I 809 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 1: think it's his best song.

Charlie's got a bigger following, of course, 852 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:20,360 Speaker 1: but it's also just a weird meeting between Charlie Sheen 853 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 1: and your background. It's it's it is weird, and and 854 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: he's funny.

And it's just a really 867 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 1: I've seen the video. Um, it's not released yet, but 868 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: i've the whole thing. He Charlie is a really talented 869 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 1: guy and he's got some great vision and just the 870 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 1: whole videos is, uh, it's excellent.

It's were you a 877 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,839 Speaker 1: fan of the Navy Seals? Yeah, oh yeah, I saw 878 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 1: it as soon as it came out. It's so crazy 879 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:38,280 Speaker 1: because I feel like every Seal comes on the show 880 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: is like a fane of yeah movies. Also, Drago has 881 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 1: said before that the reason he joined the Seal because 882 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,280 Speaker 1: the Navy Seals. You know that the bar in Virginia 883 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: Beach called the Ready Room, um, and that's less than 884 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: a mile from where I lived in Virginia Beach. That's 885 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 1: that's in the movie Navy Seals. So I was boy, 886 00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: that was I'm with fifteen years old watching a movie 887 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,399 Speaker 1: with my future friend in a bar that I will 888 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: hang out in. It's in one of those crazy, smallest 889 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 1: full circle type things. Yeah. So I liked the movie. 890 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,399 Speaker 1: I wasn't going to join, but I did like the movie. 891 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: I thought it was I thought it was cool. I didn't. 892 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 1: I didn't decide for another five years after that movie 893 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,839 Speaker 1: came out that I was going to join. That's that's crazy. Yeah, 894 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 1: But you know, I feel like the consensus has always been, oh, 895 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: the movie is really cheesy. But at the same time, 896 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 1: I loved it was cheesy. That's supposed to be. It's awesome. 897 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 1: But the guy that's um that did the jump off 898 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 1: the bridge in the movie Navy Seals, he was out 899 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 1: there with us too. That's it's been Charlie's um um 900 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 1: stunt man for the whole time. I'm excited for Top 901 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 1: Gun two when that comes out. How about that is? Yeah? Yeah, 902 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 1: because obviously it could be terrible. It's gonna go one 903 00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 1: or two ways. Super Troopers two was I liked it, Okay, 904 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 1: I was worried about that. So, I mean top you 905 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 1: know they were gonna make a Forest Gump sequel. I 906 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:52,919 Speaker 1: did not know that that's a true story. Um they 907 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 1: I think they handed in the script on September two 908 00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 1: thousand one, and obviously the next day, and they decided 909 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 1: that this movie doesn't matter anymore. I'm not making that up. 910 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,399 Speaker 1: I would think the the appeal to have a Top 911 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 1: Gun too is like we because I know, Top Gun 912 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 1: was like a military recruitment tool on some level, and 913 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:16,319 Speaker 1: all the movies coming out now, unfortunately, because we've been 914 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: at war for so many years, they're like these very 915 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,880 Speaker 1: tragic stories of uh, you know guys like, uh wow, 916 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: why I'm why am I drawing a blank? Here? Chris 917 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,840 Speaker 1: uh Kyle? Chris Kyle? Sorry? How am I? How am 918 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,879 Speaker 1: I drawing a blank? And christ Um Yeah, no, So 919 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 1: you know the stories of Chris Kyle, the stories of 920 00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 1: Marcus Latrelle. These are really crazy stories in Chris Kyle's case, 921 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: tragic stories. And I feel like Top Gun was just 922 00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 1: a fun movie recruitment tool for this even even the 923 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 1: even the bad guys in Top Gun, they had the 924 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 1: dark mass. We don't know what's country they're from. Could 925 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 1: be China, could be Russia, could be whatever, Seria, who 926 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 1: knows what it was. But now it's I mean, I'm 927 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: assuming top gun's gotta be something like carrier guys hitting 928 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: targets in Afghanistas. Something like that's gonna be interesting to see. 929 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: So they're so old now they could never know. I 930 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 1: don't know what they're gonna they'll figure it out. We 931 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:10,440 Speaker 1: were we were actually at the ready room, and this 932 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 1: is another I just thought of. This was a top gun. 933 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 1: Another funny story because the ready room is right by 934 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 1: Damn Nick. But Damn Nick is an annex of Oceania, 935 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 1: which is a Master Jet base, which is where all 936 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:22,439 Speaker 1: the f A teams are. So we're at the ready 937 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,319 Speaker 1: room and there was some pilots in there, and you know, 938 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,839 Speaker 1: young cocky pilots and there's young cocky Navy seals talking 939 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:30,879 Speaker 1: to each other and they said they were talking about 940 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 1: something about the coolest job in the Navy.

So it was okay for us because we 976 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,960 Speaker 1: we didn't know what fucking dorics we were, but that's 977 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: how I and I would I remember I actually went 978 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:22,759 Speaker 1: back to the house I grew up in maybe a 979 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:24,799 Speaker 1: month ago, to the hoop I used to shoot on. 980 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 1: I remember listening to UM to Onyx out there, you know, 981 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 1: with my shitty little headphones before like a like a 982 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,800 Speaker 1: walkman and all that stuff. It's just it's funny, yeah, 983 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 1: but I love all of it, like, you know, everything 984 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:40,320 Speaker 1: from from you know on one end you got Sticky 985 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,600 Speaker 1: Fingers and Onyx too, to Tim Montana over here that 986 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 1: you got you know, metallic has been around forever, and 987 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,080 Speaker 1: I'm a big Demon Hunter fan. It's like there's not 988 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,799 Speaker 1: just you know, just don't don't limit yourself the thing 989 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 1: I love and it's okay for white guys listening. Yes, 990 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,439 Speaker 1: I agree, of course. And you know what I feel 991 00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 1: like in New York it's like a given that's okay. 992 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,080 Speaker 1: I think the rest of the country it's I don't know, 993 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,799 Speaker 1: but um. The thing I love about Onyx is like 994 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: when I'm lifting, when I'm working out, I'm listening to 995 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: mostly metal. To me, Onyx is comparable to that in 996 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 1: its heaviness. It's such angry music, like the way he 997 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 1: sticks later a star reps. It's just he's been he's 998 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 1: been angry forever. Yeah. You know. You know who's still 999 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,719 Speaker 1: around that I'm following on Instagram is a Cypress Hill 1000 00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:23,960 Speaker 1: and they're still crushing amazing. Yeah. No, you know what 1001 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 1: I was gonna tell you. And I still don't know 1002 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 1: if that lead singers white or black. I think he 1003 00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 1: might be mixed, don't might be real. Yeah, I think 1004 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,560 Speaker 1: because I was saying nowadays the stuff he was saying, 1005 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 1: some of the words he was using in the nineties, 1006 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 1: is it still cool? Friend? And says I don't think 1007 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 1: he's white though. I think he's I think he's mixed 1008 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 1: or he's good bad um. But it was funny because 1009 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:42,799 Speaker 1: we're talking about music. I was gonna tell you if 1010 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:46,520 Speaker 1: you look behind here, which is where you signed, and 1011 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,279 Speaker 1: you signed right over there where the guys that never quit. 1012 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:51,839 Speaker 1: So a lot more guys have signed since you've been here. 1013 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 1: I had my friend Sean the Butcher, who's a DJ 1014 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 1: on Serious X and Liquid Metals, signed that. So you've 1015 00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:59,439 Speaker 1: shown the Butcher right, Yeah, I love the Only Easy 1016 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,719 Speaker 1: Days Yes Day. And he's asking me about all these signatures. 1017 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,719 Speaker 1: He's like, who's that. Oh that's Scott Kelly Um, retired 1018 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 1: US astronauts, spent the most days in space. Oh that's 1019 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 1: that's Rob O'Neil has been a lading shooter. And then 1020 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 1: he looks at himself. He's like, god, I fucking suck. 1021 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 1: So it was fun having him in. I had him 1022 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:19,440 Speaker 1: on with Pat McNamara and we just talked about all 1023 00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:24,239 Speaker 1: because Pat is like, I was gonna ask you a 1024 00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:26,959 Speaker 1: few random questions. I actually wrote down here in terms 1025 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 1: of music, we'll do one metal and one hip hop one, 1026 00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 1: and then we'll we'll wrap up here. But Tupac or Biggie. 1027 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:40,520 Speaker 1: That is a tough one. Right right now it's Biggie, 1028 00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:42,919 Speaker 1: but a year ago it would have been Tupac, because 1029 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 1: I go back and forth. That's a tough one. It's 1030 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,239 Speaker 1: crazy to think how young they were too. I'm going 1031 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 1: I'm going big okay, and the full discography like that 1032 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,879 Speaker 1: they put out, you know, I mean, I think twenty four. 1033 00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 1: It's just crazy to me the amount of music they 1034 00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 1: put out at that young age. Yeah. Um, and then 1035 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 1: of the Big four mattal A, Slayer, Megadeth, Anthrax. Okay, 1036 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:05,279 Speaker 1: I agree with you on now on because I feel 1037 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 1: like Metallica. I love a lot of Slayer stuff, a 1038 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:10,880 Speaker 1: lot of Megadeth stuff, but Metallica probably has like the 1039 00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:13,879 Speaker 1: best catalog. Yeah, well they do, they do, and and 1040 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,319 Speaker 1: again you gotta keep politics out of everything. But yeah, 1041 00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 1: that's just the lungevity. They're all, they're all, They're all 1042 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 1: around the um. I have an awesome picture of to 1043 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:27,040 Speaker 1: just to totally name drop of my mom. We were 1044 00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:29,799 Speaker 1: backstage at a Jim Jeffreys concert with my mom. Jim 1045 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 1: Jeffre's comedian and the lead nice. Yeah that was pretty Chimariah. Yeah, 1046 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 1: the thing all lead guitars. Sorry, carry king bald dude 1047 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 1: with all the sorry that. Yeah, so I think they're retiring. 1048 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 1: I think they're still like doing a few more shows. 1049 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 1: It's like this long retirement tour and then they're done. 1050 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: Supposedly Kisses retiring. Yeah that kiss said they were retiring. 1051 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:56,359 Speaker 1: I am. I'm actually going tomorrow. And the the embarrassing 1052 00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,920 Speaker 1: thing though, is and watching like, dude, Paul Stanley is 1053 00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:02,480 Speaker 1: up there lip singing. Yeah, dude, it's it's very obvious 1054 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,280 Speaker 1: and it's well, they've been at it since. It's said 1055 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:07,840 Speaker 1: to see though, man like I understand a little backing 1056 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:11,919 Speaker 1: track here there, like I want to there's perform. There's 1057 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:13,840 Speaker 1: no way he still has that voice though, Yeah, no 1058 00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 1: he doesn't. And Gene Simmons is still fine, but uh yeah, 1059 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 1: I mean I I just it's kind of weird that 1060 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:21,799 Speaker 1: this is how they're going out. I mean, I know 1061 00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:24,800 Speaker 1: that they've been a band since the seventies, but it's like, no, 1062 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:29,399 Speaker 1: but still singing. Gene sounds great. Yeah, Gene still sounds good. Um, 1063 00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 1: the band is as a whole, but Paul Stanley has 1064 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,520 Speaker 1: lost his voice and personally, I'd rather see him like 1065 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 1: struggle through these songs. Yeah, you know, like I'm a 1066 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 1: huge Motley Crew fan, which I'm excited to see the 1067 00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 1: dirt coming out.

They've got one of the 1158 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 1: best best front man in the business. So I was 1159 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:10,840 Speaker 1: listening to I've been listening to them lately too. I 1160 00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:12,880 Speaker 1: forgot about a couple unique sounds I had had had 1161 00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 1: a drop and had a name drop one more time, 1162 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:18,680 Speaker 1: and I feel like everybody knows them unfortunately for the bottom. Yeah, 1163 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,719 Speaker 1: that was them, which isn't insanely shitty. Yeah, I mean, 1164 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 1: and it's a weird way to get publicity.
