Mike, I am a psychiatrist who has been in private practice for about forty years. I thoroughly enjoyed your conversation with Scott Mann. As I finished, I was filled with hope and optimism about our country and the world. I am going to encourage everyone to watch this. Thank you. 1:16:03
United we stand , divided we fall. This phrase was spoken at the beginning of the American revolution. Civics, and American history is not being taught, or being rewritten with lies. It is a good idea to get back to the basics .
I don’t think we do but media fuels that with their evil is good, good is evil spewing. Podcasts like these are what reminds us there is still much good in the world and there is “best” yet to come.
Unfortunately you are correct. The liberal news media hates America and attacks all of our longstanding values to expedite its downfall. They always attack patriotism, honor, loyalty, work ethic, and grace. We need to eradicate their hold on the media and the education systems or America will die.
I could listen to this gentleman talk for hours. Please bring him back soon! I thank him from the bottom of my heart for his service to our country 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
How was anyone in Afghanistan a threat to Our Constitution? How was anyone in Afghanistan even a threat to the country? I’m not aware of any intercontinental capability.
@@Hittiusdid you completely understand? Wasn't he saying he fought in Afghanistan for us? Cuz the Taliban were fans of Osama Bin Laden and the sheik? Bin Laden offered 10000US dollars to anyone who would kill an American. Whatever...
Mike, I am a disabled vet. Your guest tonight was so spot on, it’s ridiculous! The level of hate that has increased in the United States since social media became more popular, I believe is the biggest culprit.
Remember it’s not one side hates the other more, it’s descending in lockstep, far better to love thy neighbor, you’d be surprised how much a left leaning individual will respect a person on the right, I think the right should lead us out of this mess by being calm cool and collected. Not reactionary to the bitchy lefty types.
It was not social media.. it was the program which declined mental hospital funding in 2020, and the 2008 president program to give every person a smartphone with unlimited service, including a 2nd if the first one breaks.
Scott Mann....a great American filled with great truth. If we are to pull ourselves out of this cultural morass that we're in, it will be because men like you will never give up on the values and virtues that made America the greatest experiment in republican democracy that the world has ever seen. ...."that a government of the people, by the people, and for the people shall not perish from the earth". Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg, 1863
The topic of NO SHAME, and the debacle in Afghanistan..."not one star was left on the table"! He was absolutely correct! No one took responsibility for this! Someone should have fallen on their sword over this mess.
Not seeing any accountability for that disaster is a infuriating to me. Junior enlisted would guys get destroyed if they lost a night vision device (which are controlled items and illegal to sell outside the United States). The jokers running the show lost 16,000 night vision devices. It's criminal that the Generals and Admirals have so far gotten a pass.
America is NOT a liberal democracy, She was founded upon the principal's of a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC.. I love your new show Mike, thanks so much, all your guests are wonderful. And thank you Mr. Mann for your service. I definitely agree with you and would like you to be a returning guest.
Did you actually watch the video? Accept that you don't understand what they meant by "liberal democracy." Thomas Jefferson might want to have a word with you.
The liberal democracy referenced was the belief that individuals have property rights and free speech. It is classical liberalism. Conservatives nowadays are classic liberals while progressives are the authoritarian radicals.
Not the Fox News vs MSNBC “liberal”, but the more political science meaning if the term. ….. “Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, right to private property and equality before the law”.
I am the product of a mom who was a WAC and a career Army Sargeant. I grew up knowing accountability in every step I took being a military dependent living in the US and in Europe. Dad was there to defend our country and we were the support crew and to be on our best behavior or the whole family was affected. I feel that accountability has been with me as an adult, a mom and in my career as a software developer. I appreciate the real people you interview. They seem so relatable. Thank you!
With a bright minded wordsmith like Mike Rowe its the syncronisity of a live interview in studio that makes these shows resonate amongst us (mere mortals). Aussie Jeff Moore
Just dropped off my daughter at the Air Force Academy and even though she won’t have her phone for 6 weeks of BT I sent her this. I want her to build vs destroy. It what my Savior did and does. Powerful stuff Mike.
The problem for me,is I know you better than you know me. At 73, building a farm in northern WI,friends and social connection are not easy…..but “sharing” time with you or Rogan or Tucker is easy and comfortable. It is also only one way and not enough, but here I am. Appreciate our one sided relationship
This was very moving. When he talked about his dad teaching him to "leave footprints" brought me to tears, and also caused me to wonder if I've been able to do the same thing. Thank you, Scott Mann, for your service to our country, and the work you continue to do. 💪🦅🇺🇲❤️
This is a fabulous interview. I am grateful to you both , Left hemisphere control and Shadow tribalism vs Right brained acceptance, adaptation, and connection to nature. I think CVD scared us all, and provoked , or at least amplified a lot of this separation and social feuding.
We lived in the city just north of Camp Pendleton Marine Base in CA for 50 yrs. I taught children of Marines; the city respected and celebrated the young men and women on the base. We appreciated their sacrifices and service. My Rotary Club was actively involved with support for Marine families. am looking forward to reading Scott Mann's book.
Thankful to be of the mindset that sees the perspective of both of these awesome men. Our beautiful country is being subverted from within. I have hope that we can right the ship but I'm not going to kid myself in thinking that at some point it will not take violence. "Look around and fix what you can. Stand up and be a man."
A wood shop customer of mine teaches long form composition at the local college. He tells me that the latest generation of students do not read long form thus have no no idea how to write anything beyond a few pages. Character development, conflict creation followed by resolution, and the connecting all loose ends simply goes over their heads. My family still gathers for Sunday family dinner. No phones, no tv, no music. Same when we are out to dinner - no phones at the table.
"Most Veterans are willing to die for their country, but they don't know how to live for it." That quote hit me me hard as an 8 year VET. My wife a civilian is my new meaning to life, and someone to die for after the military. Love the show Mike, and thanks Scott Mann
@@Hittius “I, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.” You are right we did not swear to die for our country in the military. We swore to Protect and Defend for our rights. In the past sacrifices had to be made including dying, and nobody what's to die it's what happens when the opposite party becomes violent, derange, and lawless. Now that I have a family to take care of. I now have the responsibility to protect their Constitutional rights from foreign or domestic enemies as a civilian. If somehow I die while fighting to protecting my family and Country so be it!
@@hajunom1392 If you had honored your oath in the first place,it is conceivable that the entire country,including your family,would not have to have their rights defended. Doesn’t anyone get this? The blind allegiance to the domestic enemies of the Constitution is the underlying problem. It has been for over a century. After WW1, nobody should have clambered to serve in the military,they should have made sure there was never another world war. FDR purposely violated treaties,this is a fact. After the Great Depression the country should have rallied against the government to ensure they don’t screw up again,there was no intercontinental capability at that time. Instead,it was more blind allegiance to the government due to very convincing propaganda. The government is the problem,you served the government,you were complicit. I don’t question your skills or dedication,I question who you are willing to use them for. The Republic has a doomed if the federal government isn’t set straight. Your beloved military has been diluted by your former handlers due to lowered standards. Feminism and wokeism,both government sanctioned. And none of you do anything about it! You simply adapt and now say ,”the brave men and women”, soon to be changed to whatever descriptors will come next. We the People run this show,if the elected officials don’t abide by the Bill of Rights then they should be removed and held accountable. Not by waiting for the next election cycle,THEY HAVE BROKEN THE LAW,IT IS THE DUTY OF THE MILITARY TO REMOVE THEM,INCARCERATE THEM AND TRY THEM!!! If a civilian breaks federal law,that’s what happens ,it is not the same for the overreaching federal government,THAT’S A PROBLEM DON’T YOU THINK?!!?? That’s the epitome of tyranny. The military is perfectly positioned and trained to do this yet the cycle continues. The Republic is doomed thanks to you. Good luck.
Mike says things so eloquently, like "crap the bed" whereas me,myself and I would simply throw a "shit the bed"out there ..Man,that Mike is so smooth...
I usually don't watch stuff like this. But, I couldn't stop!! I agree, I am seeing it in my grandchildren and it scares me. I see it in my work environment. Why employers are having a hard time getting good workers. I love the bird scenario! That is what is happening in our society! Exactly!
We have also allowed the idea of representative government to fool us into thinking that we are no longer required to exercise our obligations of citizenship and ensure we're electing GOOD representatives.
“Taking a bite of the shit sandwich when it’s your turn”. Mike you sure know how to turn a phrase. A perfect analogy for life as it really is. Another fantastic chat ! Thanks for allowing us to eavesdrop, once again.
Mike thanks for sharing your passion and great people in the community. Along the lines of polarization of the country, I lot a 20 year old friend, I consider family, over Mr T getting elected. Sad fact people today cannot discuss opposing views. I see this as part of everyone wins a trophy mentality. My grandfather who grew up through the great depression, stated the same thing as the book title. No one is coming to save you. Make a decision and take action. Minimal education but the smartest person in my life.
Most people cannot put their feelings on paper. Someone writing a play that speaks to emotions that individuals cannot bring into focus is wonderful. I find you very articulate. Glad to know there are nice people around. I like that you listen to each other and speak clearly and the pace of your speech is intelligible.
Instantly one of my favorite conversations of the year. I will be looking into the books mentioned. Looked up Rex Mann and the TED Talk. He is indeed an amazing story teller. All three of you are. Keep up the good work.
About 3:46: Smart people are realizing that the best connection is personal and not digital. But us Boomers don't know anything because we are old folks...
I agree with everything said by Mike and the guest. I was in the US Navy from 1978-1982. I have read and thought A LOT about WWI, WWII , Korea, Vietnam, and the Middle East. In my humble opinion, tge United States has not properly fought, and won, a war .... since WWII. You go in with overwhelming force, kick your enemy's ass, and make sure they understand that behavior that led you to begin this war is unacceptable. You need to never do that again, do you understand? Now .... let us help you get back on your feet, and your economy back on track. Let's restructure your government to be similar to other free countries around the world, so you do not become a dictatorship.
As someone who grew up in Ottawa and watched the machinations of Trudeau the Elder I appreciate your take on what is going on in the bubble I call Camelot. Reality doesn't kick in until you are past Carleton Place and the air clears. Keep up the good work. I hit that like button every time and am subscribed.
Gladys Cooper "It's strange that we've never read of this in the newspapers." Sergeant Muldoon "Well...that's newspapers for you, ma'am. You could fill volumes with what you don't read in them." One of my favorite parts of the 1968 movie the Green Berets. ;-)
I am a veteran from the 60s, and listening to this discussion is so real to my understanding and real world interests in the world around us. Saving this for anybody that I think needs to hear it. It will be very influential for others in my sphere. Thank you.
What an incredible interview! I want both my sons to attend his training and I will be buying them and my husband the books. So much to learn here that I will be listening to this podcast again and taking notes just so I can find out how to be a better storyteller to help influence from the bottom up.
Thanks for using your platform for another great discussion! I’m so encouraged that are promoting that we need to get back to reasonable, sane thinking.
Such an awesome communication of what’s happening in our Low Trust World. Thank you both for your continued dedication to our Human Race! 35 year BPO Elk, Son of the American Legion and 32 year retired LEO 💙
Mike and Scott I’m glued to your discussion this morning as I found this while looking for a sermon with Ed Young the winning walk. I got more out of this discussion than any sermon I could have listened to. I have 10+ retired veterans in my family. Many have passed. One committed suicide as I think he could not express his frustration with our society today. He felt disrespected and not valued as a person who served for 27 years. The fact we as a family are so divided nails what you both said. The new generation has such disdain for us that worked hard kept plowing through such hard times and say to us we never knew how to work smart only hard which is stupid!! This is how crazy our world has become. The people who want to give our freedoms away and our money to those who never worked a hard day in their lives makes us old folks so angry. 😡 this is what isolates us. Yes we are a cocoon. We are tired of being beat up emotionally and not appreciated. That’s what we hear from the veterans we know. I’m sorry but it’s the left wing political machine that demeans those of us that worked hard.
Ty Chuck, Mike and Scott. Yes death is scarey but we as Christians know The Lord told us in The Bible that heaven going to be so beautiful. Jesus told The thief on the cross next to Him, today you will be with me in Paradise. Luke 23. Jesus Christ died, has risen and will come again! no more tears no sorrow revelation 21
Right and with Christ's shed blood I was adopted and made part of His family. Jesus Christ fought the ultimate battle for me and others who want to be free from all sins, fears, filthiness and slavery.
The reason that the leaders didnt say they don't know what to do, is because it was their original agenda to begin with. I love all the stories of individual ideas how we have been able to help, equip and lead in such crazy and historic ways around the world. Thank you Mike for your content. I never fail to learn something new from your interviews. Please don't stop doing what you do. Love this.
I’m sitting here listening to your discussion with Scott Mann. For the first time in quite a while, I think there’s hope for us as a country. We are so much to these men
Mike, thank you so much for having Scott on your show. Scott, thank you for your service, not only on the front lines, but also back here at home, speaking out about the important issues of the day. You are so eloquent. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
My uncle was a Green Beret. in the Army from '64 to retirement. Did four tours. He lied about his age and got in at 16 years old. He didn't talk much, as usual. He was lost in the jungle for months once, his entire platoon was killed. We already thought he was gone too when he showed up. He was sent up ahead alone to find the enemy position, when the platoon was targeted. He died from the Agent Orange sudden multitude of cancers.
I've been inspired by you and Scott. Thank you for sharing/posting!I've shared it and saved it. This conversation was akin to a college crash course in Social Science, modern day anthropology.
I pray everyday. Morning work commute is, Help me to be Confident, Considerate, Respectful and Understanding, Patient and Positive, Encouraging and Motivating. In JESUS Name I pray. Thank you
Really enjoyed this podcast. The fact that media tells us they are the source of all knowledge tells us that they are spewing to low numbers. So glad to hear how these brave, tough men really worked in their jobs and that he still feels the “best” is yet to come. Your podcasts are what good, positive, people who serve others, and look for the good even when the chaos around us tries to stifle that positiveness. Thanks for sharing. ❤
I am encouraged there are folks with the skill sets and determination to effect change before we lose this great experiment to the likes of our current (lack of) leadership. Mr. Mann, Sir, I feel safe in saying there is a literal army of us willing to sacrifice our Lives, Fortunes and Sacred Honor to save this great experiment, we just need a call to duty and direction to the front.
Being a Navy military brat of 66 I know these issues very well. Living in some of the worst areas of East and West Coast. Just barely missing the Vietnam stupidity. I have two daughters that I try to warn of this crap. Yet they still fall for the Democrat warmongers. Oh well just pray my 12 yo grandson gets lucky like me.
I love beginning to end of this video. "Leaving tracks" has become my purpose the last handful of years. On the surface, my YT channel is to educate people to grow food in inhospitable Florida. But deeper, I want my grandchildren, to great-grands, and so on, know ME. It's my version of a legacy in wet cement that will harden. Thank you gentlemen.
Another great podcast Chuck n Mike proves again that people just need to communicate, step up, & get it done. All the while not relying on someone else to do it for you. I mean this I love you guys fer what ur doin keep it up as it helps restore my faith in humanity.
I ended up pausing this podcast and watching Lawrence of Arabia to know exactly what Mike was talking about. Like you said we need to hear a lot of the stories from us Veterans to know what we went through in the name of Freedom or building Democracy across the world.
Mike, went and watched Scott’s Dad Rex’s Ted talk. Very inspirational! Right next to it in the list of videos was Scott’s Ted talk “The Generosity of Scars”. Its a review of his play “Last Out”. Wow! I have to see that play! The talk gives you a real connection to the play as the cast presents some of the scenes. Great stuff!
Wow. That took me on a gut wrenching ride. Your intuition that we are on the bring of a "revival" pulled me "a bit" up out the pit of despair. Looking forward to the book and in the meantime digging deeper into any of your other content.
What a wonderful episode. Much to think about and remember to do. The months ahead will be challenging but insights here give a little comfort and a bit of sage advice.

Scott Mann and Mike Rowe (and lots of others like them) need to be in positions of authority, leadership and influence in this country.
United we stand , divided we fall.
This phrase was spoken at the beginning of the American revolution.
Civics, and American history is not being taught, or being rewritten with lies.
It is a good idea to get back to the basics .
Unfortunately, we currently honor the shameful and shame the honorable.
I don’t think we do but media fuels that with their evil is good, good is evil spewing. Podcasts like these are what reminds us there is still much good in the world and there is “best” yet to come.
This is a biblical truth
That is the fact hurting us the most.
Unfortunately you are correct. The liberal news media hates America and attacks all of our longstanding values to expedite its downfall. They always attack patriotism, honor, loyalty, work ethic, and grace. We need to eradicate their hold on the media and the education systems or America will die.
A few people are trying to make that the norm. But no, WE THE PEOPLE do not!

I am in tears...More people than you think understand this and feel this but we dont know how to combat it in a way that is meaningful and effective.

Most people cannot put their feelings on paper. Someone writing a play that speaks to emotions that individuals cannot bring into focus is wonderful. I find you very articulate. Glad to know there are nice people around. I like that you listen to each other and speak clearly and the pace of your speech is intelligible.
Exactly right spot on discussion. Now can we fix it?

Instantly one of my favorite conversations of the year. I will be looking into the books mentioned. Looked up Rex Mann and the TED Talk. He is indeed an amazing story teller. All three of you are. Keep up the good work.
About 3:46: Smart people are realizing that the best connection is personal and not digital. But us Boomers don't know anything because we are old folks...
I agree with everything said by Mike and the guest. I was in the US Navy from 1978-1982. I have read and thought A LOT about WWI, WWII , Korea, Vietnam, and the Middle East. In my humble opinion, tge United States has not properly fought, and won, a war .... since WWII. You go in with overwhelming force, kick your enemy's ass, and make sure they understand that behavior that led you to begin this war is unacceptable. You need to never do that again, do you understand? Now .... let us help you get back on your feet, and your economy back on track. Let's restructure your government to be similar to other free countries around the world, so you do not become a dictatorship.
I could listen to you both all day! Thanks for the great information & laughs. 🇺🇸🕊️❤️
As someone who grew up in Ottawa and watched the machinations of Trudeau the Elder I appreciate your take on what is going on in the bubble I call Camelot. Reality doesn't kick in until you are past Carleton Place and the air clears. Keep up the good work. I hit that like button every time and am subscribed.

I am a veteran from the 60s, and listening to this discussion is so real to my understanding and real world interests in the world around us. Saving this for anybody that I think needs to hear it. It will be very influential for others in my sphere. Thank you.
What an extraordinary human being. Listening to this man makes me feel more hopeful for our species. Great interview!
Mr. Rowe, this is an amazing episode. I feel smarter for just listening. Thank you.
What a fantastic interview, thank you so much for what you are doing! The general population needs to hear more of this kind of wisdom!
There is strength in humility.
Great episode! Need to get Scott's day on the show to talk about the American Chesnut, "Leaving a trail", etc.
Absolutely fantastic both of you. Thank you 😊 we need more men like yourselves.
What an incredible interview! I want both my sons to attend his training and I will be buying them and my husband the books. So much to learn here that I will be listening to this podcast again and taking notes just so I can find out how to be a better storyteller to help influence from the bottom up.
I agree with everything you’ve said so far, and I thank you for saying it! Love from Texas ❤
Thanks for using your platform for another great discussion! I’m so encouraged that are promoting that we need to get back to reasonable, sane thinking.
Love the restoration of the chestnut trees . Live in Virginia.
Such an awesome communication of what’s happening in our Low Trust World.
Thank you both for your continued dedication to our Human Race!

Mike and Scott I’m glued to your discussion this morning as I found this while looking for a sermon with Ed Young the winning walk. I got more out of this discussion than any sermon I could have listened to. I have 10+ retired veterans in my family. Many have passed. One committed suicide as I think he could not express his frustration with our society today. He felt disrespected and not valued as a person who served for 27 years. The fact we as a family are so divided nails what you both said. The new generation has such disdain for us that worked hard kept plowing through such hard times and say to us we never knew how to work smart only hard which is stupid!! This is how crazy our world has become. The people who want to give our freedoms away and our money to those who never worked a hard day in their lives makes us old folks so angry. 😡 this is what isolates us. Yes we are a cocoon. We are tired of being beat up emotionally and not appreciated. That’s what we hear from the veterans we know. I’m sorry but it’s the left wing political machine that demeans those of us that worked hard.
Ty Chuck, Mike and Scott. Yes death is scarey but we as Christians know The Lord told us in The Bible that heaven going to be so beautiful. Jesus told The thief on the cross next to Him, today you will be with me in Paradise. Luke 23. Jesus Christ died, has risen and will come again! no more tears no sorrow revelation 21
Right and with Christ's shed blood I was adopted and made part of His family. Jesus Christ fought the ultimate battle for me and others who want to be free from all sins, fears, filthiness and slavery.
Absolutely captivating show gentleman. Some truly profound statements made by both Scott and Mike. Thank you all who make this possible.
The reason that the leaders didnt say they don't know what to do, is because it was their original agenda to begin with. I love all the stories of individual ideas how we have been able to help, equip and lead in such crazy and historic ways around the world. Thank you Mike for your content. I never fail to learn something new from your interviews. Please don't stop doing what you do. Love this.
I’m sitting here listening to your discussion with Scott Mann. For the first time in quite a while, I think there’s hope for us as a country.
We are so much to these men
This was such an inspirational episode! Thank you so much Mike, and Scott Mann!
Mike, thank you so much for having Scott on your show. Scott, thank you for your service, not only on the front lines, but also back here at home, speaking out about the important issues of the day. You are so eloquent. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Bring Mike Rowe to the macro. Mike Rowe for president.
My uncle was a Green Beret. in the Army from '64 to retirement. Did four tours. He lied about his age and got in at 16 years old. He didn't
talk much, as usual. He was lost in the jungle for months once, his entire platoon was killed. We already thought he was gone too when he showed up. He was sent up ahead alone to find the enemy position, when the platoon was targeted. He died from the Agent Orange sudden multitude of cancers.
Sorry for your loss and his suffering.
Dupont is the PROBLEM
I've been inspired by you and Scott. Thank you for sharing/posting!I've shared it and saved it. This conversation was akin to a college crash course in Social Science, modern day anthropology.
Absolutely brilliant! 💯 amen 🙏 ❤
I pray everyday. Morning work commute is, Help me to be Confident, Considerate, Respectful and Understanding, Patient and Positive, Encouraging and Motivating. In JESUS Name I pray. Thank you
46 minutes in got me crying when man in audience spoke up that was amazing.
Scott you were amazing on Shawn Ryan and I loved you here as well! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇺🇸
Hey Mike, I am so enjoying this video series. The things I have learned, listening to you and your guest . Better than a Princeton education.
Amazing insights! Thank you Mike & Scott!
Mike Roe you are the best with great guest!
Really enjoyed this podcast. The fact that media tells us they are the source of all knowledge tells us that they are spewing to low numbers. So glad to hear how these brave, tough men really worked in their jobs and that he still feels the “best” is yet to come. Your podcasts are what good, positive, people who serve others, and look for the good even when the chaos around us tries to stifle that positiveness. Thanks for sharing. ❤
great show sat thru alllll
I am encouraged there are folks with the skill sets and determination to effect change before we lose this great experiment to the likes of our current (lack of) leadership. Mr. Mann, Sir, I feel safe in saying there is a literal army of us willing to sacrifice our Lives, Fortunes and Sacred Honor to save this great experiment, we just need a call to duty and direction to the front.
This is a must watch❤❤❤
Excellent!! Thank you!!
This is the most important conversation I have heard in years.
Thank you!
My nephew was in the service at that time - I really want to see this play.
I'm a farmer, but that's the kind of person who can mold someone into something stronger. Huge respect, awesome talk!
I disagree. Having grown up farming, the fields, the animals and the seasons all molded a character that can't be replicated in any form of media.
My gosh! What a interesting and didactic conversation between two educated people about how tenuous and pivotal 'waking up' our society must be
One of the best ever.
Thank you, Mike Rowe, for mobilizing your public persona to a civic advocate for demoracy. It's much more than I thought I'd see from you.
Being a Navy military brat of 66 I know these issues very well. Living in some of the worst areas of East and West Coast. Just barely missing the Vietnam stupidity. I have two daughters that I try to warn of this crap. Yet they still fall for the Democrat warmongers. Oh well just pray my 12 yo grandson gets lucky like me.
great interview. thank you very much.
Thank you Mike, this was a great interview. I really enjoyed the interview with Scott Mann.
THANK YOU
I love beginning to end of this video. "Leaving tracks" has become my purpose the last handful of years. On the surface, my YT channel is to educate people to grow food in inhospitable Florida. But deeper, I want my grandchildren, to great-grands, and so on, know ME. It's my version of a legacy in wet cement that will harden. Thank you gentlemen.
Thanks for your perspective and understanding.
Another great podcast Chuck n Mike proves again that people just need to communicate, step up, & get it done. All the while not relying on someone else to do it for you. I mean this I love you guys fer what ur doin keep it up as it helps restore my faith in humanity.
I ended up pausing this podcast and watching Lawrence of Arabia to know exactly what Mike was talking about. Like you said we need to hear a lot of the stories from us Veterans to know what we went through in the name of Freedom or building Democracy across the world.
Respect to you both 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Mike, went and watched Scott’s Dad Rex’s Ted talk. Very inspirational! Right next to it in the list of videos was Scott’s Ted talk “The Generosity of Scars”. Its a review of his play “Last Out”. Wow! I have to see that play! The talk gives you a real connection to the play as the cast presents some of the scenes.
Great stuff!
That was a pleasure to listen to. Thank you.
Excelent story of leadership!
Wow. That took me on a gut wrenching ride. Your intuition that we are on the bring of a "revival" pulled me "a bit" up out the pit of despair. Looking forward to the book and in the meantime digging deeper into any of your other content.
Great interview Mike,. May God bless the message for all who hear it. Scott is on to something here. Dare to pick up the gauntlet.
What a wonderful episode. Much to think about and remember to do. The months ahead will be challenging but insights here give a little comfort and a bit of sage advice.
Conversations like this one fill me with incredible hope, thank you 🙏
