Jeff is one of the deepest guests you’ve ever had on. This man is just amazing and his reflection of life and self is admirable. I hope you have him on again.
In 2015 Jeff and his teammate Ollie put on a shooting course up in Michigan. I was 19 at the time and Jeff was very intense and pretty intimidating. As my dad and I were leaving, they turned to me and said they don’t give out compliments often but I did a good job shooting. I doubt he would remember this but best compliment I ever got lol. He seems happier now.
This is by far one of your best guests. Nichols brings so much intellect and authenticity that you have greater respect for someone more than just a frogman. He brings a Socratic way of thinking to this interview by asking those types of questions
I, an absolute POG, initially started catching all these podcasts out of curiosity. I thought I’d be getting a neat lil peek behind the curtain into team life. But I quickly realized that I don’t even care about about the military stuff they talk about. I keep coming back for the incredible life lessons that so deeply resonate with experiences I’ve had, both in the Army and completely unrelated to military life.
@@TruTube.1. yeah and at the end of the day whether they killed for good or bad, they are real murderers. they take more lives than they save most likely.
F-ing an amazing guest. Jeff expresses deep conversations that most vets and first responders can relate to. Andy this interview was mind-blowing. Thank you!
Very thankful for your service and sacrifices, Jeff, and those of your Seal team. Oohrah! 😂My son and daughter currently serve in the Navy as a SeaBee and the Air Force as a Hydraulics Specialist. I'm very proud of them and blessed because of this. Everyday I pray for their safety. Glad you're living in your own identity now. You are YOU. You're not what you do for a living. I had to learn that too and it's harder than it seems. Be blessed.
Solid podcast. I love hearing you guys talk about the goods and bads of military Special Operations at large and your lessons learned. Please keep doing the good work that you are and sharing those lessons learned. Guys like me get a lot of value from them.
Very interesting conversation. I am going to have yo go back and listen to that second half of the podcast again. There is a lot that hit close to home and that I need to think about.
Rebuilt wrist lead me into a dark 5 years of hard opiate use. On multiple occasions kissing my wife and children in the night fearing I wouldn’t wake in the morning. Simply amazing seeing the sunrise the next morning. Kicked the opiates completely 10/07/2010… clean since! Salute 🫡
The mental health awareness of these vets is impressively high. I know mental health professionals that don’t have the same knowledge these seals have.
Heavy podcast from serious warriors. Their is an intensity among the teams that is unparalleled. Consider years of fighting on the battlefield and then attempting to transition to civilian life. I witnessed it when I married a Vietnam Combat Vet that did 2 tours. Very difficult transition and America was not welcoming.😢
I worked with guys in special forces, using data from VO2 Max testing they did at a facility I worked at as a strength coach, and showed them how they could use it within the Thor program. I got to look at Thor as a whole, and was very impressed. Really an approach that has been well thought out, and it utilizing up to date and knowledge of human performance, and applying it to training modern soldiers.
Rob O’Neill is a stain on the community and our society. He’s a walking propaganda machine. He would do himself a favor if he got a life and quit living in the past. But I do agree with you although I would like to see a “Vets React to GI Jane.” 😂
Anyone know which apparel company sells Jeff's t-shirt?... Awesome interview!! Thx for your service & im extremely thankful you guys protected our country while asked to do the impossible. Thank You!
Thank you for the profound conversation and share. The Shaolin continue to have a martial and noble society with strict rules even within the encroaching CCP. There are tribes in Borneo which have had warrior societies for thousands of years enduring the Japanese, British and Islamic govt. However, it is getting more difficult for them to continue with the advent of surveillance tech everywhere.
Man opiates suck that they work so well and there so terrible I wish that another drug and than he said fucking girls was worse than opiate addiction and withdrawal 8 years of opiates fuck man I whent 18 months and almost died I had withdrawals for a month than I got a hernia and had to have surgery and than I got shingles at around 30 years old I was so done its been 4 years and I'm still working myself. Thanks for the service my man and you got a lot of people that totally get ware your coming from .
Calling a 4 Star Admiral a pussy and a coward... My kind of guy!! Totally relate to that as I did something similar with a full-bird who thought he could bring me up on charges and courts martial my ass. That didn't happen after I got done with him. However, my 13 year career was OVER at that point. BTW, not SF, just a regular Navy OS.
