Tomcats to YouTube | Ward Carroll (Part 2) 

Genuinely one of the most enjoyable guys to listen too.. Ward has led a hell of a career

Learned more about ward in your interview then I have on his channel for years, great content 👍

I was one of those who the algorithm snared back in 2021. Been a fan of Mooch ever since.

Ward seems to be a down to earth person. I really enjoy his videos.

Ward is great at interviews doesn't matter if he is doing the interviewing or if he is the one being interviewed the time Flys and every second is entertaining

Damn, as I work on refining my niche and my online work, this is a masterclass in the right attitude, a smart process and finding your groove. I thank you both.

Thanks Commander Carol for your candor on all your videos! I’ve inspired my grand daughter by showing your videos about female fighter pilots. She and her younger brother can tell you anything about any aircraft they see, which just amazed me and my wife. Keep up your great work! Believe me, it’s inspiring not only to old men like me, but young people.

Wait, did I hear Punk 4? Can’t wait!

Excellent and great story from Ward.

The song Ward refers to is Hollywood Blvd (Celluloid Heroes) by The Kinks.

Super enjoyable and informative interview. (And a former F-111 guy, an a film fanatic and now an online copywriter, lots of great insights.) Thanks, Mike and Mooch - SH.

Ward is just so genuine with his stuff. He comes off as a guy that everyone likes in the end. I have been a sub since he had about 12 k at the time. It’s been awesome to watch him grow. New sub for you as well. Much love from Raeford North Carolina,USA 🤙

Great interview, Cmdr. Carroll is awesome!

this was absolutely awesome! I follow Mooch on his channel and probably watched every single episode on there but hearing him just tell his story I definitely got to see him in a completely different way which was awesome. Great great Content!!

The Rick Beato connection was a complete surprise, thanks for sharing!

Yay!! Punk 4 might happen someday!

Great interview. I appreciate the opportunity to learn a bit more about Ward.

That was really an amazing interview. Thanks!

I love Wards channel.

Wards Great 👍

Having not heard much from the host, I now have to watch more of his stuff lol

Really interesting transition in career pathway. Enjoyed that Mike and Ward. Thanks👍

There is one thing that I will always remember from my days in the Marines it was a sign that hung over the flight equipment shack Though I fly through the valley of death I fear no evil for I am ten thousand feet and climbing

Great interview! Thanks for sharing!

Ward is a true Renaissance man, I heard someone say he can fit in any crowd, he can provide Testimonial's he wrote them. 😎🤔✌

The main reason is, that there is a bunch of a musician stuff on youtube, and politics and this kind of stuff Ward. If you'll read a lot of books about aviation (literature of facts) as like me, you'll will reach a point of a saturation, where new books don't bring you any new informations, from my point of experiences. And If you are deep fan of the military aviation, You will soon realize, that there is a huge gap between books and experience be an military aviator. Ward's channel perfectly fills the gap, because fan like me, can ask a true Naval Aviator, about his work experience and things not covered in the books. That is the reason, why his channel became very popular after a release of "Truth about Goose death". If I wanna know interesting and untold specifics of the job, best I can do is, ask a naval aviator about the job he done.

Been watching Ward since early on. I was not aware of his political leanings, sensible "moderate" like him even more.

Excellent work Mike another excellent piece looking forward to more from Mooch in Q&A form , possibly?

Can't get a tone guy was a Philistine. How fitting. T Rex award

Fantastic episode! You two are legends!

This would make a good Dos Equis beer commercial,” The Most Interesting Man in the World.” fascinating.

Great interview, Ward! Rock on!

Thankyou for this .....I follow and enjoy Ward on his channel. I also follow and enjoy your channel.

Please think about the boiler techs in charge of refueling the ship, I was one of them.

Cmdr. Carroll, thank you for your service but thank you as much for your perseverance. I've appreciated your analysis, and your experience brought to bear on our nation's issues. Thank you.

Great vide. He really is one of these easy to listen to guys. Great channel.

You have crossover appeal! Love your channel, and I'm a deplorable!

Excellent follow up from the first half. Interesting discussion on the You Tube channel.

Ward is a great interview.

A fly boy hippie with a sense of reality

Ward, you and I also share the same group of people we follow online. Interesting to know.

Who doesn’t like Rolling Stone? Great coverage of UVA …. Cost them only 1.6 million.

His books are worth a read.

My man really just referenced Paramore. That took me by surprise haha

Once again, Holy F**k Mooch, give Mike a chance to talk! 😂 I can't say this was an "interview", but it was a very interesting to learn more about Mooch. He is a great storyteller and I like his channel too (I quite liked the Rick/Mooch best albums- Back In Black being the best).

Thanks!

Good interview, but both part seemed very "thin" on Tomcat stories. I also felt how 'Ward Carroll wanted to tell his story his own way and I admire how Mike wanted to respect it by not interjecting. In other words, this could have been just a recorded video as there is no bi-diectional conversation. Oh well, the ultimate Tomcat story teller Admiral 'Nasty' Manazir will be absolutely a treat to watch and hopefully, Mike gets to ask his questions in that one.

Brilliant 👌👌👌

Interesting interview. I need to read his book.

Hey Mooch, anyone ever approach you about making Punks book(s) into a movie? Keep up the good work, PAPS

I'm reading Punk's War, now, finally, just finished Hozer's last book.

fickle, capricious, and generally heartbreaking" - Ward you're the best

Got to love the mooch

We got Ward, now we need the guys from Dos Gringos!

I love Ward. These constant commercials are incredibly annoying though.

"I can't get a freaking tone guy" 😅

the real mooch :D

Really enjoy your content, a suggestion for you. Your camera is a bit high and it looks awkward, Ward's is just right. You look very far away with the wide angle lens and being higher then usual. Thank you for the video!

i was wondering have you ever known any left handed pilots of the tomcat primarily i wonder because of the pilot seat layout with the throttle and flight stick positioning

Is McMaster the greatest combat flag officer to ever live

This *surprised* me, about midpoint blathering about Hollywood & stuff I thought what the ...... How has this happened? And I nearly channel hopped. But thought ' both these guys are usually good so let's see where this is going'. And that led to a fascinating insight into a world which wouldn't normally engage my interest - How to be a RU-vid/SMS success. [For me, if you're still reading this, this is as good as it gets for me 🙄on that front] Anyway, Mike & Ward here's a sugegstion for you .............. IF you could sub-title this 'How an X million views RU-vid channel took off' it could raise both your profiles and maybe inspire others?

Fun to listen to, but leave it to a fighter guy to talk nonstop about himself for over an hour. 😛

Not much Tomcat content in either episode.
