I really appreciate this guy and his perspective. I totally agree with him about how we ought to treat vets. Thank them for serving, but don't stand for any bullshit and give anyone special treatment
Odin OfficialEmcee exactly. My dad just retired from SF ODA-081 and he’s told me the same thing. Most are good but there are terrible people who make it through. The good ones don’t want to be treated different. The ones that do from what he’s said are the ones to be concerned about.
I'm British and my brother just retired after 26 years in the British Rifles and he had a lot of good friends in SF's in the UK, but of course there are pricks in all walks of life. The Army is gonna attract psychos also. 1 in 100 people in the world are sociopaths, so of course the army has that also. I've met guys in the British army through my brother who were cunts frankly, but that's in a lot of walks of life. It's just in soldiering they get access to kiling and dominating people. The people in the army or special forces UK or USA are no different to us all. Good and Bad in all, but as someone who studied psychology back in the day Sociopaths work in certain occupations, such as the law, the goverment, surgeons is a big one btw. Any power job.
Greg W I definitely agree. Psychos get through. There’s good people trying to do the right thing but they get screwed by the bad apples. I served myself and did joint ops with the British and I have nothing but respect for all of your people. But you are very right in the fact that sociopaths are drawn to the profession. All we can do is press for a better vetting process. Please thank your brother for me.
I like Andy the most out of all the other SEALs since he’s so humble about his job. He doesn’t glorify his job and just acknowledges it as simply as a job like any other. There’s no sense of entitlement and betterment because he was a SEAL. He’s incredibly humble despite being so highly achieved, he did BUDS straight out of high school and screened for Green Team and joined DEVGRU (SEAL Team 6) at age 23 . Green Team screening and BUDS is difficult, but Andy just lays down the truth.
@@justrandom4304 Marcus Luttrell. He stays humble cause he came within inches of having his head cut off after losing his three best friends. Kinda hard to glorify what you did after that.
@MichelleObama isAman The only SEALS that are humble are the ones that retired and been out the game. of course why wouldn't anybody have an ego after going through one of the hardest pipelines out of all the branches. I know i sure wouldn't.
@@brettwiederkehr386 I feel like the "me or we" thing was a tool used to train them against having an ego. But just as you can develop a habit, it is just as easy to loose the habit.
@MichelleObama isAman if you say that Seals deserve to be egotistical because they passed buds then do Rangers and Green Berets deserve egos? Every SOF has extremely hard training but some are just more publicised.
@@jerodfisher3119 You're right, i consider getting into policing but for that very reason i'm sorta on the fence about it. I don't feel like being around the toxicity of such people again.
I wasn’t a seal but I can say the same thing Andy did about my time in the Navy. I’ve met some of the best guys I’ve ever met in the Navy. I have also met some of the biggest dirt bags I’ve ever met in the Navy.
I was in the Navy and when my fleet got called to the Persian Gulf, deck dept. used to have wait till 12am-2am to bring seals aborad the ship. It was pretty cool, but couldn't see their faces.
Why do you guys disrespect each other? Maybe it’s just certain guys, but I constantly see different branches shitting on each other and it’s always bothered me . There should be a sense of brotherhood with all the branches .
@@devdecker7812 It's *BECAUSE* we have a sense of brotherhood that we shit on eachother. We don't call Airman Chairman, or Marines Crayon eating r*tards, because we don't like them or hate them. Rather, it's because everyone who has been in KNOWS what it's like. Knows the pains. Knows the victories. Knows that feeling when you get your EGA or your Cap, and you finally leave behind the recruit, and become the Marine or Sailor that you set out to. You give eachother shit because you earned the right to. But you bet your ass that if anyone who hasn't gives a fellow serviceman or Vet shit, all the others will come to their defense immediately. I'm not sure if this following example will be PC or not, but I also don't Care: it's similar to how Black people can call eachother the N-word, or even just say that word. They can say it because they earned the right to say it. Because the suffering of their ancestors, and because they took a word that was meant to demoralize them, tear them down, and break them, and they turned it into a term of endearment. It truly is their word. They own it, in a sense. Same principle in a sense, for Vets/Serviceman. I can call my Marine buddies Crayon eaters, and they can call me a Semen slurper, because we all went through the shit and we use those insults as terms of endearment. Make sense?
@@devdecker7812 it’s a friendly rivalry though, like having 4 different college basketball teams representing the same university (example: University of North Carolina has multiple basketball teams for each UNC campus location. UNC Asheville, UNC Charlotte, UNC Wilmington, UNC chapel hill. They all represent the same state/school but are also competitive rivals with each other in the state basketball championships and National college basketball championships.
@Daniel Callahan yeah there's a few bad apples that slip by bro but you can't base an entire military off the actions of few. If they were caught or known to be doing those things they would be sent to military prison and punished for the rest of their lives. Thats not the big picture of the us military there are a lot of people that join for different purposes but the militarys goal is usually to protect good people and kill bad people and stand up for those who can't defend themselves. You know nothing, its easy too look up articles and to hate something you already don't like. Wake up

I have a cousin who is a captain in the Airforce and it's always fascinating just to hear him speak. These guys can't just be meat heads, they have to engage in complicated maneuvers to save another human being. That requires more brain over brawn.
The more specialized job in the military tends to have a higher intelligence and fitness average than the more basic jobs. The military is just like every other job. The better your qualifications, the higher level job you are qualified for.
@@specialone6731 I respectfully disagree, I am humble enough to comfortably admit I’m nowhere near the mental/physical fortitude of this guy or any military service member. Not all of us are built to provide the same things.
@@specialone6731 “Should” is a tough word. It certainly would be nice to have people like this gentleman, but IF everyone were the same, I would imagine there would be just as many challenging situations in life. But I share your premise, mire good and less bad would be beneficial for all.
This is one of the most honest and integral segments I have seen. The man is very humble and articulate about who he is and what he has done, and would be a fantastic role model for any one, no matter their age.
What I love about guys like Andy Stumpf and Mike Glover and Jocko and David Goggins, Jonny Kim is that they didn't let their military careers define them. They used the tactics and mindset and retired and moved on to another purpose in helping their communities.

@@JayzsMr Just because you are one, does not mean you can't possess the other. They are defined clearly and indifferent, though one may be confused with another because of some similar attributes. Those who know and understand the differences between them, will be able to know and understand who has what; to the definition.
As a veteran, that part about "making them earn it" in regard to thanking them for their service is so true. Please don't assume someone as having honor and integrity purely based on the fact that they've served.
They’re people. Not different from rest of society. All different types of walks of life in military..you can meet thousands of veterans and not notice otherwise.
"Keep your world small". I feel stupid for not thinking like this before. It's honestly an amazing lens to view things through, because it allows you to not get overwhelmed. Damn.
@Judas Iscariot I wouldn't say it only works for handling high stress situations; it could work for things like working out as well, where instead of focusing on the end goal and be discouraged because you don't see massive leaps in progress, you keep your world small and focus on small goals on the way. And that's just one example.
@Judas Iscariot I don't think this philosophy hinders agency at all. I took it to mean that you keep your world small by only focusing on the the immediate things you can control -- i.e., execute in the present moment. There is still a time to plan for the future, and a time to evaluate the past, but you should remain present when it's time to execute. The problem is that many of us spend way too much time focusing on the past/future (past failures, future dreams, etc.), and not enough time on the present moment. Most of our lives are made up of small tasks, daily challenges, and minor obstacles, that when added up over the course of a lifetime determine who we will become. How much better would our lives be if we always gave 100% with the task at hand? I think that when one is able to focus fully on the immediate small step, we feel less stress, which makes the next step more possible, and allows us to turn a bunch of small steps into great achievement.
Shannon god I wish I could high five you. I work in EMS and have met so many health care professionals who treat their patients like complete garbage. I’ve seen drs try to discharge people who shouldn’t be discharged because they were annoying the staff.
I was a hospital volunteer, and some people are so pretentious, then you have the others who are hard workers and carry their weight. Most of the people I met throughout the building were usually gung-ho or tried their best to be decent, but that one type of person who uses their status as something to brag grates on my nerves.
Like 99% of people in the military aren't trying to get praise from others. "Thank you for your service" is one of the most awkward things you can say to another person, and no one I know in the military doesn't hate hearing it
The majority of us or more are stereotypical government employees to be quite frank. Actual work flow and output gets better in communities that are either up or to the side in my experience ie NSW/NSO communities (even for support guys), seabees, Rivron, frigate navy, aircrew..
Had a mate attend Australian SAS selection course. 3 weeks of hell. He got through to the last day and said he survived that long by breaking it down into 12 hour blocks. He would tell himself, if I make it to the end of these 12 hours, I’ll be fine, and then would reset and go again.
Same principles for staying sober. I just have to not drink today. Early on, it was “I just have to make it to my break, then lunch, then break, then dinner.” Then a meeting and then bed. So in reality about 16 hours. The days and the years just start to pile up. 4.8.2003
That's how I injured myself from over-exercise lol. Every time I jogged I had to do a little better. Eventually hurt my leg and had to stop for a month or so. I think paying close attention to the type of pain your legs are in is crucial but that sometimes takes 10, 20, 30 years of experience to understand the different pains and which one means you should walk.
I've never heard of this guy, Andy before but after being in the Corps and training with Force recon and the seals I have a ton of respect for him. He's very well spoken, intelligent, and a good guy.
I was a career firefighter for eight years. Some of the best people I know were from the fire department. Some of the worst people I know were from the fire department. There are people I would not trust walk my dog in the fire department. I know people who stole prescription drugs from patients. I know one person who was involved with child pornography in the fire department. I know another person who was involved with scamming elderly people with fake insurance from the fire department. A profession does not dictate the quality of person. And every profession has bad people.
This is exactly what I tell people when they mention guys in the military who have supposedly seen UFOs or aliens so they 'must be real'. Just because they're in the military doesn't make them infallible. There's just as many nutjobs in the military as any other profession and should not be held in some high regard as such.
I'm not hating man, but no one cares about you being a firefighter or your scary stories. A soldier in war and a firefighter are extremely two different things. You remind of the guy that always walks around with a "I'm a firefighter" T-shirt on, lol. I'm sorry man, but just being honest. This guy is a true war hero. A Navy Seal is nothing comparable to a volunteer fire fighter my man. Go sign up if you wanna serve and do good and have some respectable stories.
I’m reminded of the book “No Easy Day” where the author mentioned how he always thought of a riddle while going thru BUDs. How does one eat a large elephant? One bite at a time.
Bob Johnson no it wasn’t hard at all. The tough part was falling orders and doing a lot of stupid things . Doing stupid stuff for months is hard for me .
I am retired Army. No, nothing fancy. I was a mechanic. I have met fellow retirees and veterans who were former Green Beret. Very down to earth and cool. Took a long time to discover they were SF. They never bragged or boasted about it.
@@BrockSampsonNA That's awesome. Am learning and appreciate more about SPECOPS since I discovered being a diver 9 months ago. I've moved on to wanting to be a USN Pilot, as the air show inspired me, but SPECOPS I think is what makes the military really cool. It's what you think of (in my opinion) when you envision soldiers/military.
@@BrockSampsonNA Since you served in the Navy, I have to ask. I'm torn between whether I stay civvy and finish my degree and then comission as an officer w/ a pilot slot, or do I enlist in the navy now and hope they end up wanting me to finish school and pay for it? The only problem I have with the idea of enlisting is getting stuck doing a job for the needs of the Navy and not being given the opportunity to fly. Any two cents would be greatly appreciated.
Political Reactor their goal isn’t to kill them. Why is it always the uninformed clowns who haven’t served a day in their life with the loudest voices. It’s about weeding out the weak... it literally makes no sense to try and kill them.... and they are there voluntarily and can quit whenever they want. There’s also medical attention available at all times. Now back to your Cheetos and video games.
Tempesta Solarum I know you are on a mission to feel smart right now. But psychopaths usually have absolutely zero conscience where sociopaths have a rather small one and can form a small circle of relationships relevant to them whereas psychopaths don’t without something to gain. 25% of ceos are psychopaths. Show me that data please. And you are right about sociopaths being more prone to impulsive harm but sociopaths are still lower on that spectrum when it comes to degree of violent acts for a reason.
I love how he talks about hell week as just a goal where you focus on the small instead of the big. He really emphasizes the SEAL team motto - “The only easy day was yesterday.”
You see when the Norway shooter outlines "bonus missions" like killing the prime minister, these psychopaths had to raise the bar for themselves as well. WHY DO I GET THE FEELING THESE PEOPLE KILLED SETH RICH?
@@FJ24. Yes. You can choose to be an offended b*tch about every statement someone makes, or you can take it with humour. Do you understand that concept?
In basic and advanced training there were two phrases I kept running through my mind to make my life easier.. No matter what you do act as though someone is always watching, and nothing lasts forever. His comments about how to look at training are very true. No matter what, it will end eventually.
I remember at 30th AG Reception Battalion, Fort Benning, GA we arrived and were kept awake for 2 1/2 days straight while processing into the Army. I literally told myself, if I just can just make it to my meals then we’ll be fine. We did not see the chow hall until the morning after those 2 1/2 days, and we slept that night for maybe 3 hours max. Breaking the day into segments definitely helps you get through it.
Loyal Patriot the best way to summarize it is live and exist day by day hour by hour. If you have to walk 3 miles to get somewhere don’t think about where you have to be and do tomorrow just focus on walking that 3 miles at that moment. Whatever comes tomorrow will be dealt with when it time
@@peaceduke1 Simplify, in other words. If you had a homework assignment due in a month instead of waiting to do it all the night before and deprive yourself of sleep work on it an hour everyday until the due date and it'll be much easier & less stressful. In the words of an alleged Chinese Proverb "A journey of a thousand miles begins with one small step."
This guy summarizes how I’ve tried to treat current or former military crazy accurately. Thank you for everything you have done, are doing, or will do in the future. But you’re still a human on this earth and you’ll be treated by your merit not where or when you served
Elite doesn't equate to money. IDK if ive ever been more impressed with only seeing a MAN talk for few moments and be so humble, intelligent. Much respect sir.
Joe Rogan's dream guest 🤯 would be a former Navy seal, that is an MMA fighter who smokes pot, has tripped on DMT, and probably knows a couple conspiracy theories. Thinking about it, that would be interesting lol
Tim kennedy is probably the closest thing to that - ex special forces, ex UFC fighter, did a TV show about the conspiracy of Hitler escaping to South America. Don't know if he is pro weed or DMT, but he definitely did seem like Joe's ideal guest when he was on
Yeah it's their job to say but that doesn't mean we shouldn't , treat differently doesn't mean treating them like a king , it meant respecting them and if they are injured in serving country physically or mentally ,it's oure duty to help them , do you realize how bad it would sound if veteran says we should treat differently than others ,yes exactly ,it sounds bad and they don't bcuz of their humbleness but it doesn't mean we shouldn't help or respect them more than a privelged people or a normal people who has done nothing for anyone other than himself , yes veteran deserves respect far more than those people
@@sugc3209 Bro you literally misinterpreted what he said. He never said not to be thankful and not to show respect, he said in the “work place”, if you work with a Vet or employ a Vet to not lower the standards just for them because they are a Vet. There are plenty of bad apples who are Vets and literally make a living out of manipulating people by using the Vet card. He also said that by lowering the standards for a Vet, you are hurting that Vet and you aren’t allowing yourself to see his true character. He was 100% correct in what he said and you misinterpreted it.
I love Joe Rogan's podcasts because it has a great mix of people from every profession. Hands down, one of the most exciting podcast channels I have come across!
James McComb no one mentioned stripping anyone of their free thought or individualism. I think part of the problem is someone says “we” and everyone loses their mind and all they see is red.
This is literally stupid because if somebody has a higher rank or social postion you treat them nicer this goes in the military or in the civilian world if somebody is your manager you're going to treat them nicer than your coworker
And one of the reasons you pick a job is for that job title. Doctors and lawyers didn't go to school for so long to not get the title, same thing with seals
@@jacoblape they do it for the work and passion not for the title or validation, u dont respect the title u respect the person, at least thats the way I see it
Three decades of working with veterans, and a marine friend of mine set me straight some years ago. He said not everyone in the military deserves my respect. Take them one at a time like I would any human.
Andrew this is smart and i think it can really make a difference even living w depression. focus on one thing at a time. get your ass up go shower then do the next task, then focus on the next, and so on.
What he is saying is true one thing I’ve heard from my dad who was in the military (and I plan on joining too) is that soldiers are taught to eradicate individualism and to teach people to not be self-centered, not to be egotistical, and to always help your brothers and sisters. That’s why “no one left behind” exists. They are taught teamwork and are also taught that everybody is the same no one is better then the other that’s why they shave heads and have strict uniform regulations and everybody is held to the same standard no one gets a free pass (unless you have some sort of injury).
My dad said the funniest part of marine training was the guys who didn’t know they had moles on their heads get their heads shaved. He said they would scream when the barbers shaved their moles pdf. He passed away but dang, that scared me as a kid. 😂
They shave there heads because they don't have to be washing it and alot of lice would be getting passed around. And if your on a knife fight with an enemy he's not gonna grab your hair. Also shoulders are made to kill plain and simple. Love your enthusiasm,but you will be expendable.
The "we over me" discussion is really interesting to me in this. I suffer from pretty severe depression/suicidality that's rooted in me hating myself, being my own worst critic, being too much of a perfectionist sometimes, etc. I was recently sent home from work on paid time off due to a ton of mental stress I was applying to myself preparing for an intense workweek coming up for me. They were looking out for my safety because of my history of suicidal ideation. When my work told me I had to take paid time off from work, my response was "What about the rest of my team? They're going to need my help next week..." etc. I'm very quick to want to help everyone around me, but never want to help myself when I'm in a serious mental war with myself. It's just fascinating to me that the concept of "we over me" is something drilled into Navy SEALs in training pretty much as a pass/fail filter, while in my case I've lived that mentality for most of my life naturally, and it has actually led to me nearly committing suicide multiple times because I really don't care for myself at all, and only for those around me.
@@RambofromWarzone you not wrong at all my guy Unity is what we have always needed it's a sense of community. Just because we're from the ghetto doesn't mean we despise our neighbors on the contrary they are all we have. Our families help their families and so on and so on.

This guys Awesome! Listened to him talk for only a few mins and it's amazing how intellectual he is and down to earth yet a very subtle bad ass at the same time. 👍
@Black Monty Burns Absolutely. There's a consequence of shrinking your frame too. Shrinking your frame of reference is good only when you're in crisis. If you use it as a lifestyle you become narrow-minded and have no ability to see beyond yourself and pursue God.
Gotta be quite the culture shock for the modern kid going through this kind of training. I'd bet that more people wash out now-a-days than maybe 10 years ago, even.
Two time iraq combat medic veteran here, he's absolutely right. We may get points when it comes to achieving a position, but vets and everyone else need to be held to the same standard. This elitist crap where people say "I'm better than you" cuz I served is garbage. I have no problem with respect, but during that job, everyone should be treated the same. You got your preference points in getting the job, now do it.
In my experience, the worst sack of shit pathological liars in the military were the ones who had that elitist mindset. Like when people would thank them for their service (probably because they intentionally wore their uniform in public places), they would be the guys who said “my pleasure”
Exactly. I don't know how many times I've felt like people were putting me on a pedestal just because I'm a veteran. To me, just because I wore a uniform in the Army is nothing that is deserving of being glorified and treated any differently than anyone else. It is very weird to be looked at as a better person than others just because I served. Especially knowing some of the shit bags that I've experienced in my service, are being praised just for the fact that they wore/wear the uniform as well. Trust me, veterans don't want to be treated differently just because we wore/wear the uniform.
I always feel weird about how the military is glorified in the US compared to other western countries, not sure how to think about it. My father served in the Irish Army as part of UN peacekeeping forces, and he doesn't like the way veterans get treated over there. I think if a complete stranger called him or anyone he served with a hero, he'd politely tell them to sod off
@@NeverMakingVideos that's odd. Because when I was flying home from Iraq, we went through Dublin. And a civilian ran to the front of the long line of military people waiting to order food, laid down a credit card and told them to run every military person's order on their card. And my dad said he had the same thing happen when he came home from Kuwait. He was in Kuwait during 9-11

I look at y'all with respect because y'all signed that blank check and went for all of us which is honorable to me. I thoroughly agree with and believe in y'all getting a few little extra perks and a few free meals or discounts and above all the respect all y'all deserve for enlisting I don't care what your job was... Idk how some other's view that nor do I care but I will always show my appreciation and respect to y'all in hopes it demonstrates how great full I am at least. I know there's millions more who think like me so on behalf of all of us like minded citizens we say Thank You Very Much for Your Service! P.S. Get all the little benefits and perks offered to y'all because y'all damn sure deserve em in my opinion... We don't do near enough for y'all anyways and that's downright shameful on our part!

I like Andy the most out of all the other SEALs since he’s so humble about his job. He doesn’t glorify his job and just acknowledges it as simply as a job like any other. There’s no sense of entitlement and betterment because he was a SEAL. He’s incredibly humble despite being so highly achieved, he did BUDS straight out of high school and screened for Green Team and joined DEVGRU (SEAL Team 6) at age 23 . Green Team screening and BUDS is difficult, but Andy just lays down the truth.
Same. Those other famous SEALs want to project a rough and cold hearted persona. I also get genuine vibes from that Lone survivor guy he's awesome
Lets not forget Jocko Willink also incredible down to earth.
@@justrandom4304 Marcus Luttrell. He stays humble cause he came within inches of having his head cut off after losing his three best friends. Kinda hard to glorify what you did after that.
Shawn Ryan and Mike Ritland as well. They both have really good podcasts
Because it is.
Joe sounded more disgusted about the dirty knife than the act itself.😂😂😂
“Clean your knife you dirty bitch” 😂😂😂
how bloody good
🤣🤣
A rare joke lol
Rich folks can't handle dirt under their fingernails.
Finally, a guy with no ego lays down the truth about being a SEAL
@MichelleObama isAman The only SEALS that are humble are the ones that retired and been out the game. of course why wouldn't anybody have an ego after going through one of the hardest pipelines out of all the branches. I know i sure wouldn't.
@@brettwiederkehr386 I feel like the "me or we" thing was a tool used to train them against having an ego. But just as you can develop a habit, it is just as easy to loose the habit.
@MichelleObama isAman if you say that Seals deserve to be egotistical because they passed buds then do Rangers and Green Berets deserve egos? Every SOF has extremely hard training but some are just more publicised.
@@DigitalStore33 what? Mental help for trauma? They're talking about ego not ptsd
I think they are we over me in their own community.
The most striking part of my military experience was realizing how many people are narcissists and sociopaths.
Exactly,specially narcissists.
Just like the people who decide to become cops. Not all, but farrrr too many.
@@jerodfisher3119 You're right, i consider getting into policing but for that very reason i'm sorta on the fence about it. I don't feel like being around the toxicity of such people again.
There are loads of narcissists, especially in intel. Always needing to one-up people, and the first to throw people under the bus.
You Wish you sound like a narcissist right there.
I wasn’t a seal but I can say the same thing Andy did about my time in the Navy. I’ve met some of the best guys I’ve ever met in the Navy. I have also met some of the biggest dirt bags I’ve ever met in the Navy.
I was in the Navy and when my fleet got called to the Persian Gulf, deck dept. used to have wait till 12am-2am to bring seals aborad the ship. It was pretty cool, but couldn't see their faces.
That’s what he said though
Why do you guys disrespect each other? Maybe it’s just certain guys, but I constantly see different branches shitting on each other and it’s always bothered me . There should be a sense of brotherhood with all the branches .
@@devdecker7812 It's *BECAUSE* we have a sense of brotherhood that we shit on eachother. We don't call Airman Chairman, or Marines Crayon eating r*tards, because we don't like them or hate them. Rather, it's because everyone who has been in KNOWS what it's like. Knows the pains. Knows the victories. Knows that feeling when you get your EGA or your Cap, and you finally leave behind the recruit, and become the Marine or Sailor that you set out to. You give eachother shit because you earned the right to. But you bet your ass that if anyone who hasn't gives a fellow serviceman or Vet shit, all the others will come to their defense immediately.
I'm not sure if this following example will be PC or not, but I also don't Care: it's similar to how Black people can call eachother the N-word, or even just say that word. They can say it because they earned the right to say it. Because the suffering of their ancestors, and because they took a word that was meant to demoralize them, tear them down, and break them, and they turned it into a term of endearment. It truly is their word. They own it, in a sense.
Same principle in a sense, for Vets/Serviceman. I can call my Marine buddies Crayon eaters, and they can call me a Semen slurper, because we all went through the shit and we use those insults as terms of endearment. Make sense?
@@devdecker7812 it’s a friendly rivalry though, like having 4 different college basketball teams representing the same university (example: University of North Carolina has multiple basketball teams for each UNC campus location. UNC Asheville, UNC Charlotte, UNC Wilmington, UNC chapel hill. They all represent the same state/school but are also competitive rivals with each other in the state basketball championships and National college basketball championships.

Its called a seal
@Daniel Callahan yeah there's a few bad apples that slip by bro but you can't base an entire military off the actions of few. If they were caught or known to be doing those things they would be sent to military prison and punished for the rest of their lives. Thats not the big picture of the us military there are a lot of people that join for different purposes but the militarys goal is usually to protect good people and kill bad people and stand up for those who can't defend themselves. You know nothing, its easy too look up articles and to hate something you already don't like. Wake up

This is one of the most honest and integral segments I have seen. The man is very humble and articulate about who he is and what he has done, and would be a fantastic role model for any one, no matter their age.
What I love about guys like Andy Stumpf and Mike Glover and Jocko and David Goggins, Jonny Kim is that they didn't let their military careers define them. They used the tactics and mindset and retired and moved on to another purpose in helping their communities.

George Carlin - "be the observer"
me against the world: loser script. me and my friends: doable.
@Judas Iscariot I wouldn't say it only works for handling high stress situations; it could work for things like working out as well, where instead of focusing on the end goal and be discouraged because you don't see massive leaps in progress, you keep your world small and focus on small goals on the way. And that's just one example.
@Judas Iscariot That's not at all what you implied, and you know it. Working out is not an emergency.
@Judas Iscariot I don't think this philosophy hinders agency at all. I took it to mean that you keep your world small by only focusing on the the immediate things you can control -- i.e., execute in the present moment. There is still a time to plan for the future, and a time to evaluate the past, but you should remain present when it's time to execute. The problem is that many of us spend way too much time focusing on the past/future (past failures, future dreams, etc.), and not enough time on the present moment. Most of our lives are made up of small tasks, daily challenges, and minor obstacles, that when added up over the course of a lifetime determine who we will become. How much better would our lives be if we always gave 100% with the task at hand? I think that when one is able to focus fully on the immediate small step, we feel less stress, which makes the next step more possible, and allows us to turn a bunch of small steps into great achievement.
I feel what he's saying
I work in the health industry. Just because you're a doctor doesn't mean you're a good person.
Shannon god I wish I could high five you. I work in EMS and have met so many health care professionals who treat their patients like complete garbage. I’ve seen drs try to discharge people who shouldn’t be discharged because they were annoying the staff.
I was a hospital volunteer, and some people are so pretentious, then you have the others who are hard workers and carry their weight. Most of the people I met throughout the building were usually gung-ho or tried their best to be decent, but that one type of person who uses their status as something to brag grates on my nerves.

Had a mate attend Australian SAS selection course. 3 weeks of hell. He got through to the last day and said he survived that long by breaking it down into 12 hour blocks. He would tell himself, if I make it to the end of these 12 hours, I’ll be fine, and then would reset and go again.
I've heard a lot of seals say the same thing. Just focus on getting through to the next meal is a common one, this day, this exercise, this hour.
Who doesn't deal with life like that?! You have to ....one step at a Time.
Breakfast lunch dinner. Mind over matter. You don’t mind. It don’t matter. Swift silent deadly.
Same principles for staying sober. I just have to not drink today. Early on, it was “I just have to make it to my break, then lunch, then break, then dinner.” Then a meeting and then bed. So in reality about 16 hours. The days and the years just start to pile up. 4.8.2003
That’s pretty much what Marcus luttrell said in his book.
The "Get to the next meal" mentality is how I run - get to the next block, get another half-mile, get just 5 more minutes.
Do you ever stop running then?
That's how I injured myself from over-exercise lol. Every time I jogged I had to do a little better. Eventually hurt my leg and had to stop for a month or so. I think paying close attention to the type of pain your legs are in is crucial but that sometimes takes 10, 20, 30 years of experience to understand the different pains and which one means you should walk.
@@damienholland9432 found the lazy built in excuses guy go eat some more chips leave the running for the skinny guys which I'm sure you're far from.
100% agree. A 5 mile in its entirety looks daunting. But by focusing on small manageable chucks you can really push yourself to higher limits.
This is pretty much my perception of life. I cannot fucking imagine having to work until I'm 65. Therefore I take it a day, a week, at a time.

I was a career firefighter for eight years. Some of the best people I know were from the fire department. Some of the worst people I know were from the fire department. There are people I would not trust walk my dog in the fire department. I know people who stole prescription drugs from patients. I know one person who was involved with child pornography in the fire department. I know another person who was involved with scamming elderly people with fake insurance from the fire department. A profession does not dictate the quality of person. And every profession has bad people.
This is exactly what I tell people when they mention guys in the military who have supposedly seen UFOs or aliens so they 'must be real'. Just because they're in the military doesn't make them infallible. There's just as many nutjobs in the military as any other profession and should not be held in some high regard as such.
This why in the military we have a UCMJ , it keeps the dark shit out of the public eye.
that guy got anymore drugs?
I learned about the cruel of the world working in nursing homes... what sad shit I've seen make your blood boil...
I'm not hating man, but no one cares about you being a firefighter or your scary stories. A soldier in war and a firefighter are extremely two different things. You remind of the guy that always walks around with a "I'm a firefighter" T-shirt on, lol. I'm sorry man, but just being honest. This guy is a true war hero. A Navy Seal is nothing comparable to a volunteer fire fighter my man. Go sign up if you wanna serve and do good and have some respectable stories.

In basic and advanced training there were two phrases I kept running through my mind to make my life easier.. No matter what you do act as though someone is always watching, and nothing lasts forever. His comments about how to look at training are very true. No matter what, it will end eventually.
I remember at 30th AG Reception Battalion, Fort Benning, GA we arrived and were kept awake for 2 1/2 days straight while processing into the Army. I literally told myself, if I just can just make it to my meals then we’ll be fine.

Yeah it's their job to say but that doesn't mean we shouldn't , treat differently doesn't mean treating them like a king , it meant respecting them and if they are injured in serving country physically or mentally ,it's oure duty to help them , do you realize how bad it would sound if veteran says we should treat differently than others ,yes exactly ,it sounds bad and they don't bcuz of their humbleness but it doesn't mean we shouldn't help or respect them more than a privelged people or a normal people who has done nothing for anyone other than himself , yes veteran deserves respect far more than those people

Same here.It's a great philosophy that can be applied to so many different areas of life.
What he is saying is true one thing I’ve heard from my dad who was in the military (and I plan on joining too) is that soldiers are taught to eradicate individualism and to teach people to not be self-centered, not to be egotistical, and to always help your brothers and sisters. That’s why “no one left behind” exists. They are taught teamwork and are also taught that everybody is the same no one is better then the other that’s why they shave heads and have strict uniform regulations and everybody is held to the same standard no one gets a free pass (unless you have some sort of injury).
My dad said the funniest part of marine training was the guys who didn’t know they had moles on their heads get their heads shaved. He said they would scream when the barbers shaved their moles pdf. He passed away but dang, that scared me as a kid. 😂
They shave there heads because they don't have to be washing it and alot of lice would be getting passed around. And if your on a knife fight with an enemy he's not gonna grab your hair. Also shoulders are made to kill plain and simple. Love your enthusiasm,but you will be expendable.
Wow this dude is so well spoken, so self aware and unbiased. Great speaker, cool to listen to...
The "we over me" discussion is really interesting to me in this. I suffer from pretty severe depression/suicidality that's rooted in me hating myself, being my own worst critic, being too much of a perfectionist sometimes, etc. I was recently sent home from work on paid time off due to a ton of mental stress I was applying to myself preparing for an intense workweek coming up for me. They were looking out for my safety because of my history of suicidal ideation. When my work told me I had to take paid time off from work, my response was "What about the rest of my team? They're going to need my help next week..." etc. I'm very quick to want to help everyone around me, but never want to help myself when I'm in a serious mental war with myself.
It's just fascinating to me that the concept of "we over me" is something drilled into Navy SEALs in training pretty much as a pass/fail filter, while in my case I've lived that mentality for most of my life naturally, and it has actually led to me nearly committing suicide multiple times because I really don't care for myself at all, and only for those around me.
Respect to these guys for doing what I never could

One of the best guests ever. Got his shit together
You Wish nah I listen to his podcast and he’s always this way
The "We is greater than me." Mindset is amazing sounds like the Spartans the brother next to you held a higher value
Go to Sparta today, just an empty field.

@@RambofromWarzone you not wrong at all my guy Unity is what we have always needed it's a sense of community. Just because we're from the ghetto doesn't mean we despise our neighbors on the contrary they are all we have. Our families help their families and so on and so on. I'm not trying to build an empire just create a path. Peace and love and Joe I'll be worried when I stop getting these podcast homie

@Black Monty Burns Absolutely. There's a consequence of shrinking your frame too. Shrinking your frame of reference is good only when you're in crisis. If you use it as a lifestyle you become narrow-minded and have no ability to see beyond yourself and pursue God.
yup. I used to think marines were badass lmao

Gotta be quite the culture shock for the modern kid going through this kind of training. I'd bet that more people wash out now-a-days than maybe 10 years ago, even.
He also has Baby Jesus on his side.
Two time iraq combat medic veteran here, he's absolutely right. We may get points when it comes to achieving a position, but vets and everyone else need to be held to the same standard. This elitist crap where people say "I'm better than you" cuz I served is garbage. I have no problem with respect, but during that job, everyone should be treated the same. You got your preference points in getting the job, now do it.
Dude, I am a reservist who lost the use of his lag because I planned and led an op saving SOFCOM guys.
Some folks still miss the point... ;)
In my experience, the worst sack of shit pathological liars in the military were the ones who had that elitist mindset. Like when people would thank them for their service (probably because they intentionally wore their uniform in public places), they would be the guys who said “my pleasure”
Exactly. I don't know how many times I've felt like people were putting me on a pedestal just because I'm a veteran. To me, just because I wore a uniform in the Army is nothing that is deserving of being glorified and treated any differently than anyone else. It is very weird to be looked at as a better person than others just because I served. Especially knowing some of the shit bags that I've experienced in my service, are being praised just for the fact that they wore/wear the uniform as well. Trust me, veterans don't want to be treated differently just because we wore/wear the uniform.
I always feel weird about how the military is glorified in the US compared to other western countries, not sure how to think about it. My father served in the Irish Army as part of UN peacekeeping forces, and he doesn't like the way veterans get treated over there. I think if a complete stranger called him or anyone he served with a hero, he'd politely tell them to sod off
I know some that do
@@dereksantalucia4920
Unfortunately, they're most likely in the shit bag category. The "Hey look at ME, I served... I'm special" type
@@NeverMakingVideos that's odd. Because when I was flying home from Iraq, we went through Dublin. And a civilian ran to the front of the long line of military people waiting to order food, laid down a credit card and told them to run every military person's order on their card. And my dad said he had the same thing happen when he came home from Kuwait. He was in Kuwait during 9-11
My whole family including my two grandma's are veterans. I was hit by a car when I was a kid and medically disqualified which kinda messed me up in the head a little bit.
Maybe my point of view is different than other's but I'm not looking at y'all like y'all are better than anyone. I look at y'all with respect because y'all signed that blank check and went for all of us which is honorable to me.
I thoroughly agree with and believe in y'all getting a few little extra perks and a few free meals or discounts and above all the respect all y'all deserve for enlisting I don't care what your job was...
Idk how some other's view that nor do I care but I will always show my appreciation and respect to y'all in hopes it demonstrates how great full I am at least. I know there's millions more who think like me so on behalf of all of us like minded citizens we say Thank You Very Much for Your Service!
P.S. Get all the little benefits and perks offered to y'all because y'all damn sure deserve em in my opinion... We don't do near enough for y'all anyways and that's downright shameful on our part!
This guy is super smart and compassionate - the best of what military training can do!
His wording and speech is incredibly smooth and well placed

Lol he just said it
Old boss of mine was a retired Seal. Told me about being dropped into the ocean off san diego with a bunch of guys for 24 hours having to use his pants as a floatation device. while he was chill and bobbing on the waves some other guys were freaking out about sharks and shit. All in all he wasnt the least bit arrogant and was a matter of fact guy with a good sense of humor.
Fuck drowning meeting my maker by the jaws of a great white would be pretty reasonable fear to have as well
That was really interesting - and told by a very articulate and impressive man. Thanks to Joe too for letting him speak without interruption.
Yeah I like how Joe does interviews... he really never interrupts or fucks up the guest’s train of thought.
I can see people crying like babies over this but you must appreciate the honesty.
I cried.
I'm 1 minute into this and my jaw is on the floor...
What a horror story.... we need jesus to come back
Hes talking about Benjamin Sifrit and his wife Erica. They killed the couple in Ocean City MD. They met the other couple at Seacrets Bar. The condo they killed them at is across the street from where I live.
Damn.
SEE YOU SOON BUDDY 😈
@Andy G haha, why is Jesse Ventura a psycho?
That was an episode of Forensic Files. Pretty interesting.
Apparently he's eligible for parole next year. Chilling.
I took my shot at this training 10 years ago. Made it to phase 1, day 3 😆
It gave me some very useful life tools though.
Shit at least you gave it a shot. I can respect that. Majority of people wouldn’t even consider attempting it
FuckinA bro! Lol at least you tried. What all did u have to do
@@RedsBigRig Boats on heads, log pt, surf passage, 2 mile ocean swims, 4 mile timed runs, o course, lots of peeing in my pants. After all, not like you can just take a bathroom break. I prepped my uniform for 6 hours and passed the inspection.
@@RedsBigRig once I had to try and pull a guy who was bigger than me with him laying on his back and holding onto the back of my neck while I tried to crawl and pull him with me. We were racing other groups of 2 like that. I couldn't even move the guy at all. I also slammed into the top beam of the dirty name about 50 times in a row. Took about 70 tries until I could get the rope swing right. I'm not a soldier, just a really fit normal guy.
damn day 3, so you were the first quitter?
This was one of the best talks about Seal training I have ever heard...
Another psychological term for "keeping your world small" is compartmentalization.
I used to have a manager, in IT, who was Jehovah's Witness, I'd just turned 20, who'd say to me, "In your small little world..." He always insulted me in roundabout ways. I did have a small world, but eh, I'm not reading your full-of-sh!t bible that's for sure!

I can agree with what Andy said on how you treat vets. I had the same talk a while back with my parents and they gave me a deer in the headlights look. I was in the army as an 11b, and let me tell you. The best men I know I met in the army and the shittiest people I ever met was in the army. Literally took the words out of my mouth, essentially.

The guy he talks about that broke into hooters is actually an episode on forensic files, it's crazy!

I was listening and I realized holy fuck, this happened literally at the condo where I go to the beach in the summer a few floors up. What a coincidence. They were hanging out with a couple at this really popular bar like 15 minutes down the street, ended up murdering them. Crazy.
I was wondering if someone had commented because I actually seen the episode some time ago
@@sean_69 yup ocean city MD buddy. I worked on the patio bar and grill at the Plaza Condo's next door to that building they killed the couple in. 94th st. Ocean side of Coastal Hghwy.
Joe your interviews are always, always interesting and truly informative. You are the best interviewer out there on the web. Thank you and please don't slow down, we need you.
I'm glad this is the first video I watched of him. I can't wait to tune in to the whole podcast.
“I could teach a monkey to do what we did” the other 70% of people that didn’t even make it past the first stage:😐
I think he’s just referring to the tasks that they preform like using a compass to navigate a map, BUDs training is one of the most physically demanding training program on top of all the mind games they play on you to weed out quitters.
