Until recently I had only seen him on dirty jobs. What can I say, I'm out of touch. I am now moving from funny entertainer to this guy has great insights and is one of a few people, very few people, that brings potential to our future.
How refreshing. Two or three people having a civil, intellectual conversation, without raising their voices, not talking over one another, injecting humor from time to time. Mike, your ability, and willingness, to engage, ask a question, then listen, is a dying art. Thanks
Well put. Rowe is the exact opposite of somebody like Bill Maher who is nothing but cynical Machiavellian prostitute for the evil power who brought out the worst in me the few times I watched him so I don't watch him at all.
And shopkeepers in a small NM city sat on the roof of the buildings with their guns post BLM protesting and damage of public property. Now,,,,,, I also believe that in some cases there are trouble makers taking advantage of the situation since attention is on the protests. Lots of gray areas exist too.
@@lenoregorman4688 I don't believe it was a handful of troublemakers, had that been the case, the leadership and mainstream media as a whole, would not have allowed that to continuously happen. I found it fascinating how Democrats would sit around and glare at each other, knowing that they have an army of useful idiots/enforcers at their disposal, to not only chant and recite the mantras, but to simultaneously strike fear in the heart of non-believers! And the fact that it was not only allowed to happen, but it was praised on the left tells you everything you need to know about those people, and that particular party. And what they would be willing to do if ever given that power again. At the end of the day, it was up to the "protesters" to police their own in that situation. And there was a shockingly small number of them that were actually calling it out. And even to this day, there are numerous people that dance around this subject because they're fearful of being labeled something they're not. Only when Everyday People decide to stand up to this type of nonsense, will the power ever be taken away from those who wield it in such a manner.
I loved the quote at 1:01 so much, that I transcribed it. Sharing here for anyone else who, like me, wants to remember it precisely: “If we are not able to ask skeptical questions or to interrogate those who tell us that something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we’re up for grabs for the next charlatan, political or religious, who comes along. It wasn’t enough, Jefferson said, to enshrine some rights in the Constitution or a Bill of Rights; the people had to be educated and they had to practice their skepticism; otherwise, we don’t run the government, the government runs us.”
Good point. One point of discussion should be how politicians (especially of the Left) and government agencies (DOJ) have created such a climate of fear. There's plenty of talk about the decline of society but no discussion of how this decline is promoted by the powerful.
@@big566bunny Because you get banned or shadow banned if you dare discuss any government culpability about anything within a thread... they don't want like minds on the subject unifying.
Not sure I agree there. There is honor in any job that serves human life and dignity. Many experts doing excellent jobs did plenty of damage: Fritz Haber, Donald Ewen Cameron.... It's not enough to do a job well, but to avoid doing jobs that never should be done at all.
Many years ago, my neighbour said to me. " You are the kind of guy, who would do brain surgery in the morning then dig a ditch in the afternoon, and take pride in doing either job equally well"
I work on a laptop all day and I never had anything delivered during lockdowns and I quickly stopped wearing the face diaper and I dang sure didn't get the pokey poke. I am so grateful to all the people who kept it all going when everybody else was too chicken to step up! Great show and great guest!!
Caution with calling it "face diaper" and pokey poke. You may have missed the part where they talked about insults shutting down discussion, and you want your peers to listen.
Oh gawd.... stop with the policing already. First, she is describing OBJECTS, not people. Second, the people who mistreated others deserve all kinds of opprobrium and calumnies...
I'm a retired Federal law enforcement officer, one of my collateral duties, for 19 of my 22 year career, was firearms instructor. Simunition was one of the best breakthrough training aids for LEOs. Using real firearms, loaded with paint rounds, that truly hurt when they hit, completely revolutionized scenario driven training. Every two years, to maintain my certification, I was required to spend two weeks teaching classes at our national academy, usually to basic trainees. Once we had Simunition, we introduced new students to it in a simple way. They donned their bullet resistant vest, helmet, heavy jacket, various hard plastic pieces on arms, legs and groin area, we then placed them 15 feet apart in two rows, and the first officer in row A would draw his .40 caliber, semiauto pistol, loaded with Simunition, and fire 2 rounds center mass at their classmate in row B. It realistically demonstrated 2 critical things, for officer A, it was can you look another human being in the eye and shoot that person, and for officer B it was staring down the barrel of .40 caliber pistol, hearing the discharge, and feeling the impact. About 10 percent of the officers could not pull the trigger or face the firearm. It weeded out those who were not constitutionally capable of performing one of the fundamentals of the job. Eventually, we were told by the higher ups to stop doing this drill with trainee officers. Mainly because it had cost the agencies a lot of money to get a trainee hired, background checks, medical exams, interviews, flying them to the academy etc.. we were then told we coukd only use these drills with advanced officers, and it was optional for them. I was told recently by a friend still working, that tgey aren't allowed to use it anymore. It was an eye opener, the first time I participated in a scenario on a team (it was comprised of all firearms instructors) as we were developing scenarios to use with students, I was shot in the arm. I was wearing a light wind breaker under my vest, it was very hot out, and it hurt like he'll, left quite a bruise, and even tore skin and caused a small bleed. It is a shame that agencies are so afraid to use it now, mainly because if DEI crap that has resulted in weak hiring standards. They are desperately afraid Some effeminate soy boy, or girl boss wanna be who thinks being a federal LEO is like what they see on TV, or they want to be a real life Charlie's Angel (shows how old I am), will sue the agency basically because training was to realistic and demanding.
I'm more concerned with the ones that escalate a situation so they can use force. I've seen videos of LEO high fiving each other because he "popped his cherry" getting to use the tazer. I'm worried about those guys
I had a similar experience as a police defensive tactics instructor. I retired several years ago but just observing officers at work in the community and in hi profile media scenes, it appears that verbal de escalation and effective control and restraint techniques are no longer being taught or at least not very well. Police administrators it seems, are more concerned with liability exposure than officer safety. Its a good illustration of Gavin de Becker's distinction between true fear and false fear, in setting policy to avoid lawsuits they have created greater liability exposure and lower officer safety.
The Gift of Fear completely reshaped the way I think about personal safety. As a woman, no other book I can think of has imbued me with such a sense of control over my own safety. Over the years I have recommended the book (as well as Protecting the Gift) to literally anyone who will listen to me. One of the crucial things you two discuss in this episode is de Becker's explanation of the difference between false fear messengers and real intuition. Such an applicable and important distinction. Thanks for having Gavin de Becker on your podcast, Mike. He is truly an expert on the human condition, and he makes hard topics super interesting - I hang on every word he says/writes! You're pretty fabulous too. :)
Instinct and Common Sense! Another thing that came to mind with what is lacking these days: Self-control AND self-discipline. Examples: You come to a full stop at a stop sign because you see a cop - that's self-control. You come to a full stop at a stop sign because it's safer to make sure no kids on bikes, etc. That's self-discipline. Great interview!
Or, act appropriate to the situation. If there are people, then fully stop. If nobody is around, then don't. That is called the wisdom and discretion that befits free people in a free country.
@@nunnayabiz7911You've missed the point, and demonstrated the lack of discipline. The arrogance and ignorance it takes to miss the point and to think the important bit is the cop is a product of upbringing and state of social/moral decay. Post shame society is you doing the act and openly sharing it with others. Heading in the right direction of back to shame would be you responding in any self aware way to this comment. Ultimately we need to return to personal guilt, failing yourself, your moral code and or God etc.
@@nunnayabiz7911 Or, set an example by following the law instead of picking and choosing which ones you'll follow and when. If the law says "Stop fully at a stop sign," then stop fully no matter what or when. It's too easy to miss that person, or that car, or that anything that can be missed because we're human beings and are limited. Integrity is what you are when no one is watching, after all. The freedom to act irresponsibly is not a right - it's a choice.
@TheDoctor1225 I bet you took the Poison covid jab, the hilarious part is youre too coward to admit youre the stage 3 Trials for such experimental drugs...
I've asked loud neighbors to turn down the volume and they've gotten aggressive with me, tried to attack me, cuss me and my husband out... so no, at that point the cops are getting involved. The USA needs to have manners, civility, common courtesy taught again.
You are not alone..I've lost count of the amount of broken bottles I've picked up from my driveway, trash in my yard (once literally an entire carton of eggs still in the carton ...rest of times were a few loose eggs, all kinds of other garbage. Always up for a fight. The thing that drove them nuts was me ignoring them. Thank god they finally moved.
I'd love to see this guy come back and give his thoughts on the break down of the assassination attempt on Trump. Very interesting dialog between the two of you. As always, great job Mike.
Mike had him on approx four weeks ago and Rogan had him on three weeks ago. Considering I have never heard of this person, the timing of his appearances and his profession is highly suspicious to me. There are no coincidences. I believe you know who is a client. He is way to smart to let a government entity be his only security.
@@nonyabisness-cg7mfso many new pieces unfolding day after day. I am so far from a conspiracist ~ but as each day goes by, learning new behind the scenes information ~ how can someone deny how fishy this was. I have lived my life refusing our government is corrupt. As there was always 2 sides of a coin in the way we as humans perceive things. But after Covid and now with what happened to Trump / the secret service stalling with giving information ~ the fact checkers of all the behind the scenes of what was going on 2 weeks prior and up to the attempt. I feel like it would be negligent to turn my head refusing to acknowledge the lies and coverups. It makes me sad while it wakes me up to the importance of voting and being a voice for our livelihood and humanity
Many years ago I worked at a rape crisis center. The Gift of Fear was given to our clients who wanted a copy. It was practically required reading for our advocates. Thank you Mike for taking on the topics you cover and Gavin for writing this very important book.
I did not get the vax but my wife who received 2 shots got Covid 2 months later and almost had to go to the hospital. The Covid Vaccine was not a vaccine at all.
In my long experience, *always trust your intuition and your fear*. If it's not telling you to do something completely ridiculous, what have you got to lose? If you walk into a store and your instinct tells you to get out of there and you go to another store, what have you lost? Nothing. It was my mom who taught me to listen to mine. Rarely, as in I can count on one hand, is it ever wrong. I read The Gift Of Fear 25 years ago when it first came out, it was fantastic, and a wonderful confirmation for me. Great guest and great show as always. Thank you so much Mike🌝.
Decades ago the comedian Robert Klein did a bit called "Fear is the greatest salesman." Back then too my Dad used to say, "Provoke the fear then offer a solution." Great episode!
I read The Gift of Fear by Gavin DeBecker, I have recommended it to every woman I can. And, men! Our intuition is likely screaming at us at times and are we listening or doubting this gift? I cant wait to read his other book. Great job Mike Rowe!
Once on a beautiful Sunday morning around 7:30, I asked a next door neighbor to turn down her music and she said, “This is my house, I can do what I want “. Okay, Neighbor. When the CPS came by to see what was going on in that house, I had an opportunity to talk. Btw I didn’t call the CPS.
I watched it to the end. Thinking of the list of people who are going to question me sending an hour and a half show to them. Incredible guest (as usual) and content that is so pure! Thank you.
So did I however I’ve spent much more than an hour & a half. More like four hours so far... As a Curious Skeptic, I paused the video to seek other references to over five subject areas. A new sample of Gavin's Fear Book rests in my Kindle library along with two of Clint Hill's books
I used to tell my children, "Intuition is God telling you to not do or go there, whatever there is!" Never feel guilty about that. Needless to say, they teach it to their kids.
Mike Rowe - thank you so much for having Gavin deBecker on! I read his "Gift of Fear" book years ago - more than once and recommended it to many. Great information - great opportunity to be reminded lessons in the book. I also appreciate you both speaking of current issues in our country. Excellent!
I was an USAF Security Policeman 1966-1970. A few weeks before I was discharged in 1970, a Senior Master Sergeant told me that the fastest growing civilian career field for the next 20 years would be security. I wasn't interested in the career field, but I'm still impressed at how accurate he was.
Screw you and your Generation for not listening to Eisenhowers farewell Address, you literally worship the Beast the Military Industrial defence(includes private security) Apparatus. Steven Hall, i hope Jesus Christ tells you the dreaded, "Depart from me worker of iniquities, i do not know ye." Enjoy HELL
About 29:41: One very important item that is no longer promoted these days is ... hard work. People want stuff for free, without having to work for it or earn it.
Things ARE tipping your world, Mike. It’s beautiful to see! You are more and more relevant all the time. You are engaging and interesting. I am sick in bed and found myself watching TH-cam. This program came up and I was going to watch something a little shorter. Suddenly, I am on the last five minutes of it. Thank you for taking your precious time to inform, educate and entertain (and to do what you do).
Mike Rowe this is amazing. This man teaches what I have lived my whole life doing watching people. Their decision making. Behavior in rare situations. Started reading to find why I made such bad decisions. Wish I had done it earlier in life. Eyes open ears open hearts open. Most people are in judgement mode when they get the first glimpse of someone.
Good advice on traveling safely on a commercial airplane. Always locate the nearest exit, count the rows, and pre-plan your exit. I didn't hear anything about proper clothing and footwear. Plan for an emergency when getting dressed for travel. No flip flops, slip on's, shorts etc. I see that every day. Finally, as a professional, I certainly do have every passengers safety as my number one priority whenever I'm at the controls. Every pilot I know or fly with has the same priority.
I.read the book. The Gift of Fear. Mr. De Becker was a important read. How to protect your self. His book is always in my mind. Protecting me. Thank you. Mike. Thanks for having him on your pod cast.
Very interesting conversation about very interesting points. Two men who reflect upon what they do and what they say. Not easy to find in the internet nowadays. You might want to know that intuition was what saved my life when I lived in the States. It also guided me into the idea that I had to help the police, prosecutors, and state arrest a local psychopat, and convict him. I absolutely agree with Mr. de Becker about intuition, perception, and grasp of the reality around us. Here watching from Brazil. I ´ve already subscribed...
I dig the picture frames in the background…of this podcast. I raised a son who’s turning 21 soon, too soon. But he is a young man looking for work. School later, I think. I was a way better student getting back into college in my late 20’s…and 30’s. Rather than just dreaming of a career and taking classes to be an Architect. But, I didn’t attend a school that mastered in architecture. So I changed majors to teach. One I noticed the power of Admin over the teachers, and 2 the teachers had to buy all supplies for the year’s curriculum, I didn’t want to be a teacher. Grading papers until 11 pm at home. So I took another job with a picture-frame maker… Covid lockdowns, shop closes, and I’m unemployed. So I started making my own picture-frames. It’s slow going, but I now make things. I love it. I sell them, online. My son gets bored of sanding. There’s a lot of sanding. But he knows, deep down, if he decides to help me make frames, then that will be the thing he ends up doing… He’s not sure if that’s the deck of cards he’s carrying, if that makes sense. Jeez, I’ll write a letter next time 🙏🤣🙌 All that said, I’ll keep my patience with him, and support him in ways that I’m able to.
He just might be the chocolate to your peanut butter. Is he an artist? Or a photogrpher? How cool would it be for you to make the picture frames and for him to fill them? Now THAT would be a great pb&j sandwich.
“How did this country function with the lockdowns? Well, somebody brought you food and the laptop class isn’t thinking about who farmed it, who trucked it, who got it there. A friend of mine said not only does the laptop class not care about people who do work, but they think work is a policy failure.” ~Gavin de Becker Boy, did that resonate with me and offered some new insight into how current decision makers ae thinking. Thanks for a very useful conversation.
I graduated College as a promise to my Mother as she was dying of Cancer. Never gave a shit about it, and worked myself through it. But for her it was important, and she was everything to me. I think more kids today need to learn, appreciatte and love a trade. You can make a business of that, assuming you can find anyone that wants to work and learn. Good luck with that in America of all places.
I have been recommending the book, The Gift of Fear for 25 years. I just ordered one for my friend. This interview was amazing! I am sharing Ed Dowd’s book everywhere I can!! Thank you!!!
I read that book. It was good. And one thing he said always stays with me - Vi0lence is rarely the answer. But when it is, it's the only answer. I trust my gut a lot more than I used to.
Four of my high school class of '67 died of covid-related causes in 2020 and 2021. They were all jabbed and boosted. My sister though still alive got myocarditis and could go any time. I'm normally pro-vaccine and for whatever reason decided to skip this one.
Doesn’t this whole ordeal make you skeptical about the traditional childhood v’s that we formerly believed were safe & necessary? We can no longer trust the authorities have our best interest in mind.
Mike...i listen to your podcast almost every night. This episode was by far the most important and relevant episode i have heard from yourself or any other host. Please have Gavin return to share his thoughts on the assisnation attempts against President Trump and the tyrrany within the Three Letter Agencies. Keep up the excellent work!!!👏 👍 👌 ❤
So many people choose to give up when it gets hard to be a partner, a parent. It’s unfortunate that they miss out on the possibility of things getting better, and miss out of the best part of their lives.
Money and privilege were simpler to define. When the money. started to exponentially be taken by the CEO’s and wages stagnated around Reagan and Thatcher, Mulroney (in western countries). Fear then ego are motivating everyone. Our hormones react subconsciously
Up until my recent retirement I have been involved in telecommunications for over 40 years. early on I was completely enthralled with the idea of a world wide high speed network, the ability to produce useful content, teaching content, specialized programming, (with some exceptions) has now devolved into this equivalent of a town meeting with 140 people talking and no one listening. Add to that, the hideous manipulation of the masses by a few people that learned the methodology early on. Then there’s the rules that prevent the dissemination of sound medical advice, whether it’s a good or bad drug, or a good or bad food. No one is to be trusted and don’t you dare give medical advice Les tried or you be sued or tarred and feathered! And don’t get met started on the organizations that have the word “news” in their names when the last time they actually reported news was 1979. I hope the smart and sane people win. Thanks Mike and Gavin for a great video. Mike Rowe for president!
Yeah, I worked in the news business years ago, right out of college, and can certify that almost nothing going on under the banner of MSM has anything to do with journalism. Rather, it's anti-journalism. It's state captured propaganda. We could have that noble ideal of the internet, but it will take radical decentralizing of ownership and control of the infrastructure and major platforms. Just think of an internet where we all own a piece of everything ( as we should, since they're all making money off either billing us for service or selling our data) from ISP up, and our default portal of entry isn't run by Big Tech but a local or micro local site. We also have to take back our broadcast spectrum btw... while everyone worries about what happens with the internet, basically a couple of corporations have bought the entire terrestrial radio industry -- the entire am/fm dial nationwide. Call-in talk radio was the internet before the internet.

This was such a powerful interview. I have been treated very poorly for my decisions not to vaccinate, and now through Covid, and through much pain and suffering and death, people have now come back to me with a different perspective and a kind sentiment towards my decisions. And I’m not sure if it angers me more than it saddens me.
I think the suggestion that passengers be asked to participate in the defense of the plane in the event of an attack is one of the best ideas I've ever heard. People will do almost anything they are asked to do, but are also very unlikely to volunteer to put themselves in harms way. If there is a clearly articulated expectation that people are supposed to help each other, many people (not all, of course) will be much more likely to intervene. People hate to go against the expectations of the group.
Personally know two ladies who are up to 9 jabs under doctors recommendations. They’re older than me, I’m 70, they refuse to hear any of the facts I’ve told them. They’re so convinced that they’re doing the right thing that I’ve given up. All I can do is feel pity. No jabs no Covid for me. Thank you for this interview. Stay skeptical, ask questions, trust your instincts!

Nice - lessons my father emphasized. Pride in hard work, be aware of your surroundings, trust your instincts and actions have consequences. Thankful that being a sceptic and instinct kept me from the jab. Thank you for sharing this Informative wonderful conversation.
I am really finding every episode of your channel most interesting and informative, Mike - I subscribed today. This gentleman confirmed what my father taught me when I was a kid: "If you feel uncomfortable in an environment to the point where you sense danger, retreat immediately. It's your intuition that is warning you." I know I have saved my own life in situations by heeding to my gut feeling. Someone told me it's called 'discernment' but it's definitely an internal sense protecting us from harm. Thank you for sharing this with us, Mike; take good care my friend.
Gentleman, thank you. I've listened to Ed Dowd on Greg Hunter's website and appreciate the hard numbers he brings to the plate. I also appreciate how Gavin's personality rolls in with Ed's. Truth, integrity and fortitude have a way of doing that.
Thanks Mike, I swear if you find something valuable I know it is. I love that about you plus you crack me up! Can’t beat the combination! Uncomfortable info with a spoonful of sugar. . . Thank you for sharing, I love who you are!

Interesting view. I notice the wonderful quality of men often not jumping into a conflict with their children. There seems to be an observation technique…not taking sides unless they need a comment. Very admirable and wise. As a former teacher we often would observe postering, bullying during lunch activities. Often just allowing them Minutes to take a breath and then often have children express what happened and feelings. Then there would be acknowledgement of pain and hurt and apologies of both parties and… how could we change to a better way of solving issues themselves.
Thank you as always Mike for having interesting and amazing guests! It took me a minute to put together his name with the book "The Gift of Fear". OMG great book! After reading it, I bought several copies when it first came out, and gave them to my friends who needed it. (Constantly choosing Bad abusive boyfriends, creepy bosses, thugs hanging around their apartments...) Glad I personally have inherent senses to rational fear...although noticed not many people do - was delighted to give out your book 7 times! Thank you for all you do!!

I loved the quote at 1:01 so much, that I transcribed it. Sharing here for anyone else who, like me, wants to remember it precisely:
“If we are not able to ask skeptical questions or to interrogate those who tell us that something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we’re up for grabs for the next charlatan, political or religious, who comes along. It wasn’t enough, Jefferson said, to enshrine some rights in the Constitution or a Bill of Rights; the people had to be educated and they had to practice their skepticism; otherwise, we don’t run the government, the government runs us.”

How interesting it would be to hear Mike re-interview Mr. de Becker after the events of July 13, 2024!
Exactly my thoughts as well Kathy.
I'm sure he'll incorporate many elements of that incident into his instruction as a model of how NOT to do things.
Good point. One point of discussion should be how politicians (especially of the Left) and government agencies (DOJ) have created such a climate of fear. There's plenty of talk about the decline of society but no discussion of how this decline is promoted by the powerful.

@@marefynn81 You pervert the intention with specific exceptions.
You cut off your nose to spite your face. Tsk tsk.
Thats why the young are so lost. They arent good at anything real. They waste their time on video games and social media.
Many years ago, my neighbour said to me. " You are the kind of guy, who would do brain surgery in the morning then dig a ditch in the afternoon, and take pride in doing either job equally well"
I work on a laptop all day and I never had anything delivered during lockdowns and I quickly stopped wearing the face diaper and I dang sure didn't get the pokey poke. I am so grateful to all the people who kept it all going when everybody else was too chicken to step up! Great show and great guest!!
✝️⚓️❤️
Ora et Labora
Caution with calling it "face diaper" and pokey poke. You may have missed the part where they talked about insults shutting down discussion, and you want your peers to listen.
Oh gawd.... stop with the policing already. First, she is describing OBJECTS, not people. Second, the people who mistreated others deserve all kinds of opprobrium and calumnies...
The only people whose opinion i value on policy decisions are those who are hurt by them.
No jab, no mask, no hiding out.. now everyone I knew that did is dying of clots and strokes.
Thank you for having Mr. De Becker on. His book saved my life and increased my understanding of instincts.
I 💕 Mike Rowe and what he stands for!!!
That’s right! Amen. 🙏
Me too. He is an incredible conservative. True to its name
I’ll drink to that. Cheers! 🥃
I'm a retired Federal law enforcement officer, one of my collateral duties, for 19 of my 22 year career, was firearms instructor.
Simunition was one of the best breakthrough training aids for LEOs. Using real firearms, loaded with paint rounds, that truly hurt when they hit, completely revolutionized scenario driven training.
Every two years, to maintain my certification, I was required to spend two weeks teaching classes at our national academy, usually to basic trainees.
Once we had Simunition, we introduced new students to it in a simple way. They donned their bullet resistant vest, helmet, heavy jacket, various hard plastic pieces on arms, legs and groin area, we then placed them 15 feet apart in two rows, and the first officer in row A would draw his .40 caliber, semiauto pistol, loaded with Simunition, and fire 2 rounds center mass at their classmate in row B. It realistically demonstrated 2 critical things, for officer A, it was can you look another human being in the eye and shoot that person, and for officer B it was staring down the barrel of .40 caliber pistol, hearing the discharge, and feeling the impact. About 10 percent of the officers could not pull the trigger or face the firearm. It weeded out those who were not constitutionally capable of performing one of the fundamentals of the job.
Eventually, we were told by the higher ups to stop doing this drill with trainee officers. Mainly because it had cost the agencies a lot of money to get a trainee hired, background checks, medical exams, interviews, flying them to the academy etc.. we were then told we coukd only use these drills with advanced officers, and it was optional for them.
I was told recently by a friend still working, that tgey aren't allowed to use it anymore.
It was an eye opener, the first time I participated in a scenario on a team (it was comprised of all firearms instructors) as we were developing scenarios to use with students, I was shot in the arm. I was wearing a light wind breaker under my vest, it was very hot out, and it hurt like he'll, left quite a bruise, and even tore skin and caused a small bleed.
It is a shame that agencies are so afraid to use it now, mainly because if DEI crap that has resulted in weak hiring standards. They are desperately afraid Some effeminate soy boy, or girl boss wanna be who thinks being a federal LEO is like what they see on TV, or they want to be a real life Charlie's Angel (shows how old I am), will sue the agency basically because training was to realistic and demanding.
I'm more concerned with the ones that escalate a situation so they can use force. I've seen videos of LEO high fiving each other because he "popped his cherry" getting to use the tazer. I'm worried about those guys
Are those rounds and similar training available to those of us "civilians" wishing avail ourselves to it?
@@markbrown8097 Play paintball, it's cheaper.
I had a similar experience as a police defensive tactics instructor. I retired several years ago but just observing officers at work in the community and in hi profile media scenes, it appears that verbal de escalation and effective control and restraint techniques are no longer being taught or at least not very well. Police administrators it seems, are more concerned with liability exposure than officer safety. Its a good illustration of Gavin de Becker's distinction between true fear and false fear, in setting policy to avoid lawsuits they have created greater liability exposure and lower officer safety.
Yep. America is FKD.
Yes, we have to stand for ourselves. Defend the peace. Do not rely on government to protect us.
Please please please have Gavin on again, and again, and again....truly fascinating and more importantly his insights are worth our attention. Cheers.
Never ignore the Instincts God gave you.
The Gift of Fear completely reshaped the way I think about personal safety. As a woman, no other book I can think of has imbued me with such a sense of control over my own safety. Over the years I have recommended the book (as well as Protecting the Gift) to literally anyone who will listen to me. One of the crucial things you two discuss in this episode is de Becker's explanation of the difference between false fear messengers and real intuition. Such an applicable and important distinction. Thanks for having Gavin de Becker on your podcast, Mike. He is truly an expert on the human condition, and he makes hard topics super interesting - I hang on every word he says/writes! You're pretty fabulous too. :)
Good review! I’ll look into the book. Thanks. (Also female)
FEAR will change the way you vote NO MATTER WHAT YOU BELIVE IN.
Instinct and Common Sense! Another thing that came to mind with what is lacking these days: Self-control AND self-discipline. Examples: You come to a full stop at a stop sign because you see a cop - that's self-control. You come to a full stop at a stop sign because it's safer to make sure no kids on bikes, etc. That's self-discipline. Great interview!
Or, act appropriate to the situation. If there are people, then fully stop. If nobody is around, then don't. That is called the wisdom and discretion that befits free people in a free country.
@@nunnayabiz7911You've missed the point, and demonstrated the lack of discipline. The arrogance and ignorance it takes to miss the point and to think the important bit is the cop is a product of upbringing and state of social/moral decay. Post shame society is you doing the act and openly sharing it with others. Heading in the right direction of back to shame would be you responding in any self aware way to this comment. Ultimately we need to return to personal guilt, failing yourself, your moral code and or God etc.
@@nunnayabiz7911 Or, set an example by following the law instead of picking and choosing which ones you'll follow and when. If the law says "Stop fully at a stop sign," then stop fully no matter what or when. It's too easy to miss that person, or that car, or that anything that can be missed because we're human beings and are limited. Integrity is what you are when no one is watching, after all. The freedom to act irresponsibly is not a right - it's a choice.
@@TheDoctor1225
So everyone should have worn a mask … even when alone on a beach ?
Come on , man 🤦♂️
@TheDoctor1225 I bet you took the Poison covid jab, the hilarious part is youre too coward to admit youre the stage 3 Trials for such experimental drugs...
I've asked loud neighbors to turn down the volume and they've gotten aggressive with me, tried to attack me, cuss me and my husband out... so no, at that point the cops are getting involved. The USA needs to have manners, civility, common courtesy taught again.
I agree people have gone ferel it's from sorros funded d.a. and people who forgot how to get rid of them because schools have dumbed down people 😮
Unfortunately, teaching courtesy, manners, kindness, and other such things in SEIL curriculum is being actively protested.
You are not alone..I've lost count of the amount of broken bottles I've picked up from my driveway, trash in my yard (once literally an entire carton of eggs still in the carton ...rest of times were a few loose eggs, all kinds of other garbage. Always up for a fight. The thing that drove them nuts was me ignoring them. Thank god they finally moved.
I'd love to see this guy come back and give his thoughts on the break down of the assassination attempt on Trump. Very interesting dialog between the two of you. As always, great job Mike.
Mike had him on approx four weeks ago and Rogan had him on three weeks ago. Considering I have never heard of this person, the timing of his appearances and his profession is highly suspicious to me.
There are no coincidences. I believe you know who is a client. He is way to smart to let a government entity be his only security.
@@nonyabisness-cg7mfso many new pieces unfolding day after day. I am so far from a conspiracist ~ but as each day goes by, learning new behind the scenes information ~ how can someone deny how fishy this was.
I have lived my life refusing our government is corrupt. As there was always 2 sides of a coin in the way we as humans perceive things. But after Covid and now with what happened to Trump / the secret service stalling with giving information ~ the fact checkers of all the behind the scenes of what was going on 2 weeks prior and up to the attempt. I feel like it would be negligent to turn my head refusing to acknowledge the lies and coverups.
It makes me sad while it wakes me up to the importance of voting and being a voice for our livelihood and humanity
@@divinebeginnings3741 Waking up is a painful & lonely process. But we are glad to have you join us on this road. Hang in there…
This might be the best episode of the podcast I’ve ever heard. Awesome guest.
Totally agree!
Many years ago I worked at a rape crisis center. The Gift of Fear was given to our clients who wanted a copy. It was practically required reading for our advocates. Thank you Mike for taking on the topics you cover and Gavin for writing this very important book.
What an interesting dude. Wow. Never heard of him but if I was 30yrs younger, I'd be applying at his academy.
Mike Rowe should run for President!!!
Thank you Mike for allowing Gavin speak truth about the vax.
I did not get the vax but my wife who received 2 shots got Covid 2 months later and almost had to go to the hospital.
The Covid Vaccine was not a vaccine at all.
This is definitely one of the best podcasts on the internet.
10:49 one of the best books. I made both my girls read it once they were old enough. I highly recommend The Gift of Fear to everyone I can hear.
In my long experience, *always trust your intuition and your fear*. If it's not telling you to do something completely ridiculous, what have you got to lose? If you walk into a store and your instinct tells you to get out of there and you go to another store, what have you lost? Nothing. It was my mom who taught me to listen to mine. Rarely, as in I can count on one hand, is it ever wrong.
I read The Gift Of Fear 25 years ago when it first came out, it was fantastic, and a wonderful confirmation for me. Great guest and great show as always. Thank you so much Mike🌝.
Mike, you need to have this guy back to talk about the current Secret Service
I agree 100%!!!
Peaceful survival and self determination, it's all I've ever wanted from the world. Until several years ago, I thought most others did too.
Decades ago the comedian Robert Klein did a bit called "Fear is the greatest salesman." Back then too my Dad used to say, "Provoke the fear then offer a solution."
Great episode!
I read The Gift of Fear by Gavin DeBecker, I have recommended it to every woman I can. And, men! Our intuition is likely screaming at us at times and are we listening or doubting this gift? I cant wait to read his other book. Great job Mike Rowe!
I read that book when I was in my early 20's and recommended it to all my female friends; still do.
If you can ask your neighbors to turn their music down without fear, you live in a better neighborhood than me.
Once on a beautiful Sunday morning around 7:30, I asked a next door neighbor to turn down her music and she said, “This is my house, I can do what I want “. Okay, Neighbor. When the CPS came by to see what was going on in that house, I had an opportunity to talk. Btw I didn’t call the CPS.
I do not approve your reverse by taking advantage via CPS
I watched it to the end. Thinking of the list of people who are going to question me sending an hour and a half show to them.
Incredible guest (as usual) and content that is so pure!
Thank you.
Same. I can’t usually watch videos in which there is only people talking, (like really never) but this one gripped me to the end.
So did I however I’ve spent much more than an hour & a half. More like four hours so far... As a Curious Skeptic, I paused the video to seek other references to over five subject areas. A new sample of Gavin's Fear Book rests in my Kindle library along with two of Clint Hill's books
I said pretty much the same thing in my comment! Totally unexpected and appreciated!
Congrats, now you're one of us weirdos🤓
Probably my favorite interview to date on Mike Rowe. So interesting.
I used to tell my children, "Intuition is God telling you to not do or go there, whatever there is!" Never feel guilty about that. Needless to say, they teach it to their kids.
Mike Rowe - thank you so much for having Gavin deBecker on! I read his "Gift of Fear" book years ago - more than once and recommended it to many. Great information - great opportunity to be reminded lessons in the book. I also appreciate you both speaking of current issues in our country. Excellent!
Thank you for saying.What so many of us have been thinking

I was an USAF Security Policeman 1966-1970. A few weeks before I was discharged in 1970, a Senior Master Sergeant told me that the fastest growing civilian career field for the next 20 years would be security. I wasn't interested in the career field, but I'm still impressed at how accurate he was.

About 29:41: One very important item that is no longer promoted these days is ... hard work. People want stuff for free, without having to work for it or earn it.
You can't blame people for following their leaders.
Things ARE tipping your world, Mike. It’s beautiful to see!
You are more and more relevant all the time. You are engaging and interesting.
I am sick in bed and found myself watching TH-cam. This program came up and I was going to watch something a little shorter. Suddenly, I am on the last five minutes of it.
Thank you for taking your precious time to inform, educate and entertain (and to do what you do).
Mike Rowe this is amazing. This man teaches what I have lived my whole life doing watching people. Their decision making. Behavior in rare situations. Started reading to find why I made such bad decisions. Wish I had done it earlier in life. Eyes open ears open hearts open. Most people are in judgement mode when they get the first glimpse of someone.
So thankful for Gavin's books, The Gift of Fear and also Protecting the Gift ❤
Good advice on traveling safely on a commercial airplane. Always locate the nearest exit, count the rows, and pre-plan your exit. I didn't hear anything about proper clothing and footwear. Plan for an emergency when getting dressed for travel. No flip flops, slip on's, shorts etc. I see that every day. Finally, as a professional, I certainly do have every passengers safety as my number one priority whenever I'm at the controls. Every pilot I know or fly with has the same priority.
I'm sure those are in the book
I.read the book. The Gift of Fear. Mr. De Becker was a important read. How to protect your self. His book is always in my mind. Protecting me. Thank you. Mike. Thanks for having him on your pod cast.
Two Good Men! Fabulous Book by Gavin DeBecker! “Gift of Fear”
Very interesting conversation about very interesting points. Two men who reflect upon what they do and what they say. Not easy to find in the internet nowadays. You might want to know that intuition was what saved my life when I lived in the States. It also guided me into the idea that I had to help the police, prosecutors, and state arrest a local psychopat, and convict him. I absolutely agree with Mr. de Becker about intuition, perception, and grasp of the reality around us. Here watching from Brazil. I ´ve already subscribed...
I dig the picture frames in the background…of this podcast.
I raised a son who’s turning 21 soon, too soon.
But he is a young man looking for work. School later, I think.
I was a way better student getting back into college in my late 20’s…and 30’s. Rather than just dreaming of a career and taking classes to be an Architect.
But, I didn’t attend a school that mastered in architecture.
So I changed majors to teach.
One I noticed the power of Admin over the teachers, and 2 the teachers had to buy all supplies for the year’s curriculum, I didn’t want to be a teacher. Grading papers until 11 pm at home.
So I took another job with a picture-frame maker…
Covid lockdowns, shop closes, and I’m unemployed.
So I started making my own picture-frames.
It’s slow going, but I now make things. I love it. I sell them, online.
My son gets bored of sanding. There’s a lot of sanding.
But he knows, deep down, if he decides to help me make frames, then that will be the thing he ends up doing…
He’s not sure if that’s the deck of cards he’s carrying, if that makes sense.
Jeez, I’ll write a letter next time 🙏🤣🙌
All that said, I’ll keep my patience with him, and support him in ways that I’m able to.
He just might be the chocolate to your peanut butter. Is he an artist? Or a photogrpher? How cool would it be for you to make the picture frames and for him to fill them? Now THAT would be a great pb&j sandwich.
"The Gift of Fear" is a great book. Very informative.

“How did this country function with the lockdowns? Well, somebody brought you food and the laptop class isn’t thinking about who farmed it, who trucked it, who got it there. A friend of mine said not only does the laptop class not care about people who do work, but they think work is a policy failure.” ~Gavin de Becker
Boy, did that resonate with me and offered some new insight into how current decision makers ae thinking. Thanks for a very useful conversation.
The food delivery people should have been dying like flies, but they weren't.
I graduated College as a promise to my Mother as she was dying of Cancer. Never gave a shit about it, and worked myself through it. But for her it was important, and she was everything to me. I think more kids today need to learn, appreciatte and love a trade. You can make a business of that, assuming you can find anyone that wants to work and learn. Good luck with that in America of all places.
I have been recommending the book, The Gift of Fear for 25 years. I just ordered one for my friend.
This interview was amazing!
I am sharing Ed Dowd’s book everywhere I can!!
Thank you!!!
I read that book. It was good. And one thing he said always stays with me - Vi0lence is rarely the answer. But when it is, it's the only answer. I trust my gut a lot more than I used to.
I took our son to an after school Manners Class and it really paid off. He has grown up to be very kind, polite and chivalrous.
The hand shake at the end was the icing on the cake.
man, Top quality guest! Again...
Four of my high school class of '67 died of covid-related causes in 2020 and 2021. They were all jabbed and boosted. My sister though still alive got myocarditis and could go any time. I'm normally pro-vaccine and for whatever reason decided to skip this one.
Doesn’t this whole ordeal make you skeptical about the traditional childhood v’s that we formerly believed were safe & necessary?
We can no longer trust the authorities have our best interest in mind.
People should be for vaccine CHOICE, everyone is different. Would you expect someone with a peanut allergy to eat peanut products? Dumb.
Thank you for creating a comprehensive intelligent conversation. Enjoyed it very much.
Love this guy for speaking out about the C vaccines
Truth.
Mike...i listen to your podcast almost every night. This episode was by far the most important and relevant episode i have heard from yourself or any other host. Please have Gavin return to share his thoughts on the assisnation attempts against President Trump and the tyrrany within the Three Letter Agencies. Keep up the excellent work!!!👏 👍 👌 ❤
2 parent households with the father as a role model is getting rarer and rarer these days.
So many people choose to give up when it gets hard to be a partner, a parent. It’s unfortunate that they miss out on the possibility of things getting better, and miss out of the best part of their lives.
Money and privilege were simpler to define. When the money. started to exponentially be taken by the CEO’s and wages stagnated around Reagan and Thatcher, Mulroney (in western countries). Fear then ego are motivating everyone. Our hormones react subconsciously
Up until my recent retirement I have been involved in telecommunications for over 40 years. early on I was completely enthralled with the idea of a world wide high speed network, the ability to produce useful content, teaching content, specialized programming, (with some exceptions) has now devolved into this equivalent of a town meeting with 140 people talking and no one listening. Add to that, the hideous manipulation of the masses by a few people that learned the methodology early on. Then there’s the rules that prevent the dissemination of sound medical advice, whether it’s a good or bad drug, or a good or bad food. No one is to be trusted and don’t you dare give medical advice Les tried or you be sued or tarred and feathered!
And don’t get met started on the organizations that have the word “news” in their names when the last time they actually reported news was 1979.
I hope the smart and sane people win. Thanks Mike and Gavin for a great video.
Mike Rowe for president!
Yeah, I worked in the news business years ago, right out of college, and can certify that almost nothing going on under the banner of MSM has anything to do with journalism. Rather, it's anti-journalism. It's state captured propaganda.
We could have that noble ideal of the internet, but it will take radical decentralizing of ownership and control of the infrastructure and major platforms.
Just think of an internet where we all own a piece of everything ( as we should, since they're all making money off either billing us for service or selling our data) from ISP up, and our default portal of entry isn't run by Big Tech but a local or micro local site.
We also have to take back our broadcast spectrum btw... while everyone worries about what happens with the internet, basically a couple of corporations have bought the entire terrestrial radio industry -- the entire am/fm dial nationwide.
Call-in talk radio was the internet before the internet.

Great thoughts
This was such a powerful interview. I have been treated very poorly for my decisions not to vaccinate, and now through Covid, and through much pain and suffering and death, people have now come back to me with a different perspective and a kind sentiment towards my decisions. And I’m not sure if it angers me more than it saddens me.
Wow, how truthfully a good interaction. Once again. Way togo Mike.
I think the suggestion that passengers be asked to participate in the defense of the plane in the event of an attack is one of the best ideas I've ever heard. People will do almost anything they are asked to do, but are also very unlikely to volunteer to put themselves in harms way. If there is a clearly articulated expectation that people are supposed to help each other, many people (not all, of course) will be much more likely to intervene. People hate to go against the expectations of the group.
Personally know two ladies who are up to 9 jabs under doctors recommendations. They’re older than me, I’m 70, they refuse to hear any of the facts I’ve told them. They’re so convinced that they’re doing the right thing that I’ve given up. All I can do is feel pity. No jabs no Covid for me.
Thank you for this interview. Stay skeptical, ask questions, trust your instincts!

Mike, I have so much respect for you as you’re the calm voice. Thank you for your podcast and shows and wisdom. You’re using “unpack” too often.
What an excellent interview and subject. Thanks again Mike
"Unpack" has been extremely overused in the last twenty years. Another of more recent vintage which annoys me to no end is "vanishingly small."
WOW, what an episode. Thank you Mike Rowe.
Thank you very much Mike..👍👍 on double thumbs up and keep on keeping on 👍👍
Most important interview you've done... except for the one in the future dedicated exclusively to the book Cause Unknown.
Common sense spoken in respectful words. Questions that seek clarity is lifting courage in each consumer.
We love Mike Roe and most of his guests. Prolly all his guests for that matter. I do too. Wish I could shake his hand. He does a lot of tv commercials for the Oklahoma energy resources board. Glad they hire him because Oklahoma is getting bluer and bluer all the time.
I just found this! I also read the release on the current president having just received his 10th booster of paxlovid, the day before he dropped out of the race. So now you know of one. Thanks for a great episode! So glad to have found you!
Great conversation! Both are EXCELLENT listeners!
Fascinating interview!!❤❤
About 7:05: Certain segments of the political spectrum think that nobody should be held accountable for their actions. This only escalates the bad actions because there are no consequences.
What political party are you referring to? I just wanted to know because the way I see it they both cause a lot of problems.
@@rocky8758 The part that praises collectivism and promotes victimhood.
@@rocky8758 The Anti-cop party, the anti-arrest folks because of race, the party that doesn't care if laws are broken by foreigners crossing illegally, the party that convicted Trump of 34 felonies for a paperwork violation. Got it?
True - the Republicans were never held accountable for selling WMD's and those lies.
Conservatives
Nice - lessons my father emphasized. Pride in hard work, be aware of your surroundings, trust your instincts and actions have consequences.
Thankful that being a sceptic and instinct kept me from the jab.
Thank you for sharing this Informative wonderful conversation.
I am really finding every episode of your channel most interesting and informative, Mike - I subscribed today. This gentleman confirmed what my father taught me when I was a kid: "If you feel uncomfortable in an environment to the point where you sense danger, retreat immediately. It's your intuition that is warning you." I know I have saved my own life in situations by heeding to my gut feeling. Someone told me it's called 'discernment' but it's definitely an internal sense protecting us from harm. Thank you for sharing this with us, Mike; take good care my friend.
Wow, that was great! I love smart men!! God Bless
Thanks to Chuck for letting this go long! It's a good one.
Gentleman, thank you. I've listened to Ed Dowd on Greg Hunter's website and appreciate the hard numbers he brings to the plate. I also appreciate how Gavin's personality rolls in with Ed's. Truth, integrity and fortitude have a way of doing that.
Count the rows. Never give up.
Thanks Mike, I swear if you find something valuable I know it is. I love that about you plus you crack me up! Can’t beat the combination! Uncomfortable info with a spoonful of sugar. . . Thank you for sharing, I love who you are!
Fantastic interview! Thank you!
On airplane evaluation during a smoke filled cabin. Yes count rowes. The most breathable is at armrest hight. Thicker smoke rizes, most toxic is on the floor.
Thanks for having this talk for the Camera. It needed to be said. I appreciate the candor.
Damn what a FINE interview! Great job guys!
Interesting view. I notice the wonderful quality of men often not jumping into a conflict with their children. There seems to be an observation technique…not taking sides unless they need a comment. Very admirable and wise. As a former teacher we often would observe postering, bullying during lunch activities. Often just allowing them
Minutes to take a breath and then often have children express what happened and feelings. Then there would be acknowledgement of pain and hurt and apologies of both parties and… how could we change to a better way of solving issues themselves.
Situational awareness!
Mike et al, I really absolutely LOVE your show! Thank you so much for everything.
This is unusual to find intelligent conversation, love the channel..
Loved how you looked over the electric fence to see where the stink was coming from. Great talk!
Wonderful interview. Many thanks to Mike and his guest.
Thank you as always Mike for having interesting and amazing guests! It took me a minute to put together his name with the book "The Gift of Fear". OMG great book! After reading it, I bought several copies when it first came out, and gave them to my friends who needed it. (Constantly choosing Bad abusive boyfriends, creepy bosses, thugs hanging around their apartments...) Glad I personally have inherent senses to rational fear...although noticed not many people do - was delighted to give out your book 7 times!
Thank you for all you do!!
Great video, soooo damn refreshing to hear sensible discussion about this one “electric fence” topic! Thank you Mike and Gavin.
Yes I am here. Thank you for your help and support.
Great topic, great guest, great conversation. Thank you!
