Mitch was actually my sere instructor when I went through the program in 2016. You could tell then that he really had a passion for all things sere. It was a tough month long program, but I’ll never forget Mitch. Solid dude!
At the one hour three minute portion, I felt that. I also set aside a career that I loved for my wife and children. Men, there is a calling that is greater than your career and ambitions and that is being a husband and father. It is tough and you will have doubts, but I assure you, being a husband and father is worth much more than any accolade that a career can give.
Been a firm believe for a long time that children need to understand their place in the hierarchy. They get all the information they need to understand. This helps them understand that they part of the family and have a role to play in it. It also helps them understand that the family doesn't revolve around them, we are a unit, we work together, we play together. One of the biggest eye openers for me was just how important siblings are. I only wanted one child, my wife asked for a second and now we have four. The way my kids work together is truly a blessing, always banding together to get things done, leading and delegating tasks to one another - it is amazing to watch. As they each get older they get more responsibilities assigned to them and they eat it up. The best part to see is that when we have to make sacrifices, we sacrifice as a family. Everyone understand why and gets on board. I don't deserve the family I have but I am truly grateful I have all of them. We get teased because we often attend events for individuals in our family (piano recitals, sports matches etc) as a family but the most telling moment for me was when one of the kids walked up to my oldest son and said to him "man, I cannot believe you have your whole family here supporting you, I wish I had that". Broke my heart hearing that. Biggest lesson I learned was (which was pointed to earlier in the video) there is no one size fits all for children but they always need boundaries. Love your family, there is no greater joy in life.
Sad to me the amount of friends I know who have become complete homebodies. Makes me worried that if there ever is an emergency helping them would just hurt me and my family.
This mindset is weak. Same principle as “all my friends are lame nobody wants to go to the bar with me.” You’ll understand once you have your own family. You don’t need other people in order to be great.
@@CHOPPASLUGBMyah bro I love being a home body with 17 animals and kids and all my equipment. If you’re out spending money on drinking and stupid entertainment as a grown man… and you are not prepared when you need to be you’re a clown
It's even fucking tough to watch, OMG.......... Those two old heavy men, never figured they would finish, they are tough. Randall, Garand and these two, not much better, the rest are Utubie wannabes, IMO.
Man, I'm 45, I wasn't around a lot for my kids a lot. I think about it all the time now they are grown and have started familys of thare own. But I have a second chance with my grandsons. The cats and the cradle is a real thing
Everything from cool guy gun stuff topics, personal stories, dad advice, actual SERE stuff, and talking about Jesus, in one episode was awesome to hear. Probably all of those topics are in my top ten to listen about/learn about. Great content and keep up the good work. God bless
As for civilian it is important to remember that you don't have army backing you. Civilian is either lost in permissive enviroment - that's more wilderness survival because we want to be found. Or in the middle of enemy controled territory with almost no thing like safe territory. There simply is no forward line of own troops to cross and there is no blackhawk to evac you to FOB.
@1:06:40 I am honestly glad to hear that I am not the only father that really struggles with playing with their kid. I have worried over it and made efforts to play when asked but it is so terribly difficult to do. I am so thankful you guys randomly talked about the struggles of the father. I’m glad I’m not alone.
My son is in SERE school right now. So far he's doing well but has a lot ahead of him. He's just like Mitch always in the woods and when he got to Lackland for selection he was an honor grad and received the cadre award. He's a believer and me and his mother truly believe God created him just for this career choice. Really enjoyed the podcast and especially the thought provoking question did Judas have a moment where he reached salvation? Blew my mind and I'm going to share it with m oldest son who is a campus pastor at North Carolina State. It'll be interesting to hear his response. I want to thank ALL Y"ALL for your service, GOD BLESS AMERICA.... Be Blessed and Be A Blessing!
It's interesting to see some things never change. I went through SERE back in 1987. His story about stressing people out enough to get them out of their comfort zone and maybe kill a live rabbit with a club brought me back to 1987. I had to laugh while he told his story, it is exactly what happened with our group. The most mild and timid female aircrew member went full Rambo on us when stress met hunger. She killed the rabbit, lots of blood, and we all took part in skinning, cleaning and drying for jerky. Wow, that was a long time ago!
This is crazy I went in to the Air Force for almost all the same reasons. Same thing happened, I qualified and wanted to go in for SERE, couldn’t get a class for like four months. Went on to be an f15 crew chief with plans to cross train to sere but never ended up doing that because I fell in love with fighter jet maintenance. It was nice to hear a Flightline maintainers perspective on all this stuff!
I’m happy to see yall making a video about sere as I will be going through the pipeline soon. Hitting legs tonight and will be rucking tomorrow morning. Trying to prep myself for what’s ahead
My bro passed all of the SERE training tests in the military with flying colors. The only part that he couldn't do was at the end, teaching people how to do it. They even gave him a few more tries and he failed that test. LOL
6:06 SERE was my backup plan coming out of high school. Almost made the move once I was homeless in the mountains, but eventually fought my way out of that. I still to this day listen and study sere specialist. 💯 great video and thanks for bringing bro back on.
As a father of 2 exceptional grown men my only regret is not saying “yes” more. They turned out fine but I missed opportunities to be with them. I’m glad you young fathers spent some time talking about this 👍
fugitive is an Oregon church group classic, we played across the neighborhood the parents were having a small group. and added in the taser rule with nerf guns where you had to lay down and count to 5 before they could stand up.
Mitch is spot-on with the "building a community" thing. We homestead and we are wearing ourselves out because there are a ton of homesteaders locally...and they mostly seem to want to follow the TH-cam Homesteader path. We're actually considering it, but not so much to make money, as so many do, and it isn't something either my wife or I have ANY experience doing, but we REALLY want to teach others how to do homesteading things. I'm a mechanical guy and my wife is a gardening genius. We just want to pass on our knowledge to our kids and others.
I went trough SERE in November of 95. It was tougher than any of the schools I attended and harder than sniper school. I didn't go through RIP, SF selection, or delta selection. I did meet one of my instructors on a later (mission), I think he was in 7th group. Now that I read this, I think, damn I'm old now.
I'm not a military dude nor religious nor do I care much for it besides thinking that guns are cool (and that physical activity and nature are cool), but community is an important aspect of life it doesn't matter what topic you apply it on, SERE, or as something for the "end of america" scenario, but I don't think where it's applied to really matters at the end of the day Having hope for life doesn't have to be anything related to god, can be hope for the future/humanity but it boils down to belief that something "better" is coming, for me personally the therapy boom across the world gives me hope cause people are going to wake up to issues that generations have deal with, and go through a years long process of trying to untagle those issues and leave them behind so as to not bring that further down to their families I love what these channels and podcasts like the Shawn Ryan Show are doing, and I love how down to earth these guys are (including mitch), Tom Satterly at SRS was a great watch as well Mitch explaining how he himself affects his child and vice versa is really a nice story to hear, besides having a cool dad the kid's going to also have a great dad
Man this episode started off great. I did the same protein thing at the stumps one time. Nothing but tuna and vienna sausages with tabasco. I was miserable!
@@MadeinAmerica123 For me, I just look at food. But, for most people it's calories In vs. calories Out. It's of course all dependent on the type of calories. And, at the end of the day you just have to be able to except your genetic make up. Chicken breasts is still (even under Bidenomics) the cheapest leanest complete protein you can get. Protein shakes are great to have to get the protein and calories in WHEN you don't have the time. Start there. Give it a go. You just happen to ask the right person. I use to do this stuff for a living.
@@MadeinAmerica123 I just remembered: Lentils. Lentils, lentils, lentils. They are super cheap, coupled with rice they become a complete protein, and are a great food for prepping, because they are a legume and last a long time. You can always doctor them up if you're not big into the taste. They are a super food, so if you're trying to get extra protein and fiber in, they can be calorie dense. 1 cup of of lentils and 1/2 cup of white rice is ~330 calories. I add different spices and different hot sauces to non-dullify them. I know that tracking nutrition is boring, but if you get a good app, spend the time in the first 2-4 weeks, it will just have the foods stored because we tend to eat the same shit. You will see where you are strong and weak in your nutrition. I will say that if you really try to keep your fiber up, the easiest way to do this is through lentils (for the taste, price, ease of prep, versatility, etc.) you'll start seeing your calories climb.
I think the most difficult part of all your talking about is --- knowing what someone elses really wants from you, the things their not saying. Their sense of grasp of reality like when someone write a book it is a reflection of their thoughts---the wolf gift by anne rice its really good loved it lolol i know SEREous stuff
I was just thinking about the Judas scenario recently. Funny to watch this podcast and it came out of left field at the end. Whenever I read the events leading to Christ's death and resurrection, I think for a while about Judas, the hopelessness and torment he must have felt, and how he wasn't around to witness Christ's redemption for us. Hits hard if we consider how many times we may have betrayed the lover of our souls for selfish reasons as we chase other gods. Good talk.
1:08:08 man, as a dad this hit me in the feels. I always feel like I'm "too busy" when my kids ask me to play, or come look at something they did.. And I try, but I don't make it take priority. I've been trying to work on it, but haven't been doing great. Meanwhile, their lives are flying by in the blink of an eye. I need to do it today.
Love the info. I do think it was a little bit off topic in the 3rd chunk about family, but I personally found that information helpful as well! Keep up the great content!
Loved this video guys. I'm pretty young right now and his childhood storys of running into the woods and making stuff like bows sounds very similar to my life! keep up the good work guys and thanks for the info!
Had a question reference your goat fencing in the tactical homesteading video. Are you able to describe how you have your goat fencing set up? I'm wanting to house 2 or 3 Nigerian dwarfs in an urban setting as well, and yours appears to be pallets with welded wire fencing. Just want to know how you have it held up and together, and if it's worked for you long term. Thank you!
Wow! I thoroughly enjoyed this. It is thought provoking. Perhaps we all can re-evaluate. What we believe to be true. Open mind for a different view. Thank you.
Dude his breaking into the school story i was like was he with us ? Literally same thing in like summer 96 at our middle school in Hawthorne Ca.. HPHL Hawthorne police hockey league on a Saturday and a few of us broke off and climbed on the school and going through a alarmed gate alerted the cops jumps off the roof and ran .. (you choose poorly, not Indy)…. I’m a 39 year old dad of a 3 1/2 year old and everyday is a learning process but you guys have helped make me feel normal .. so thank you for that
That last conversation was deep. There was a book I read about Jesus’ life. Desire of Ages. It has some profound insights and writings along those lines. Helps me a lot of things clearer or provoke further thought.
This is a great podcast kind of interview. Just chilling with a few ciders and it's like we are all sat in the pub chatting about it. How it's produced and edited! Good job guys!!
Me and my friends use to find two telephone poles side-by-side each other on the opposite lanes of the road and then wrap clear wrap across the road using the telephone poles to stretch it super tight. Super fun game probably not the smartest game.
Reaally solid informative videos from you guys, even the less serious fun ones. I really appreciated this one, especially the last few minutes. PS you guys & PNW Guerilla are the best channels. Different flavors of the same sustainment-related content. You should get together on something, I think you all would complement each other very well.
I can still hear my grandmother teaching me to always pray for God to spare time. Only when God can spare The Winds of strife can we expect him to build his kingdom! Nobody is beyond the power of Grace to save them but we need to hurry because I also believe there is a time when the Holy Spirit will be withdrawn and we will need to stand on our own! This was one of those lectures that will always stand out in my mind. Thank you and God's blessings
This is OG Comanche Raider type survival. Sign me up. I want a week long class of this, just for the little tidbits like the electrolytes from eyeballs
There wasn’t a pair of swim trunks 🩳 or sweatpants with a string in four counties because we made bows. Those head knockers or Hawthorns and honey locust tree thorns are dangerous. 💯🇺🇸
Seriously a great podcast. That 108 minutes flew by. Some awesome stories and good food for thought. Really enjoyed the Judas discussion at the end. Keep it up!
Hey lol. I was on the other side of what he originally did haha. He was weapons, I was ammo hooligan. Started out in TACP but washed out after a year and ended up 2W0X1. Love those load toads though haha. Later tried for 1C4 but blew out my back. Shoulda gone SERE... good job lads!
I wanted to chime in on your question "was there a moment Judas reached salvation". I was sharing this with my oldest son who is a campus pastor at North Carolina State and he immediately went to John 17:12- While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled. Your question is worthy of discussion but I feel this scripture pretty much answers your question.
Great video, nice to see the real people behind the content to come out in this conversation. QUESTION: Who makes that jacket you put on halfway through the video? ✝
Glad to see fellow Christians out there. You guys aren't pushing anything. Just talking about what you believe, and not afraid of what people think or say. Very refreshing. Thanks guys
1:01:11 this part just kinda struck me, I had a thought even though it's not in the context of the discussion I wonder if the point still stands if you apply it to a broader societal context. The erasure of religion, the denigration of the US and it's folk heros, the distancing ones self from your own people or tribe, the atomization of society. I wonder, does that microcosm of the individual in a POW camp who lost the will to survive also apply to the macro scale?
After almost 11 years of being an AMMO troop… I wish I put effort into cross training as a young Amn. SERE was the goal back then but I never made it a priority and now I am kicking myself. Not that it’s been a bad ride to move and deploy all over the world. But I don’t have the career fulfillment that I think SERE would have provided and I definitely don’t have the survival skills.
Don't listen to this guy. The best way to become a SERE specialist is to sign up for the job before going to basic, completing basic, and running away when your SERE training starts. If at the end of selection they don't find you, you're in, and you'll also get a call from Harvard.
1:38:44 Hey Josh -- on the topic of the healing of America and timing -- I hope you don't hold yourself to the same timeline for repentence as you do America. You're a solid dude. You, I, and our nation can change anything we want to change, and we can do it very fast. It's a satanic lie that it takes years and years and eons of eternity to repent. It takes exactly as long to repent as it takes us to say, “I’ll change”-and mean it. Of course there's problems to work out and restitutions to make. We'll probably spend (and we better) the rest of our lives proving our repentance by its permanence. But change, growth, renewal, and repentance can come instantaneously. And the actual healing of the American system can take place as quickly as the Constitution healed a dieing infant of a country we were for 8 years before that.
I was just at the point of talking about severity, dehydration and regaining electrolytes of the eye ball.Does that apply to other animals you might trap or hunt?
1:08:16 I may not be a Father yet but I remember Gordon Ramsey once said every man has two Jackets one for Work and one for being a Father when you get off work or when your Kids need you whatever it is no matter what weather Susie wants you to wear a tiara and play tea party or when Timmy need you to come to his soccer Game whatever you need to know when to take off the work jacket put on the father Jacket

And a good time was had by all..
I wish he was still doing it, so he could teach me. I plan to enlist and do air force Special Warfare.

I agree.
1000% was literally going to comment the same thing at the same time mark. Need more discussion like this. I feel men need to better understand this.
Unless you're Tom Brady
Agreed raising 4 girls is the coolest and most stressful thing I’ve done in my life

I feel this completely. At this point I have my family and I have my team, but some people just won't listen or train.
Do what’s best for your family brother. You can’t save everyone but you damn sure can protect your family.
This mindset is weak. Same principle as “all my friends are lame nobody wants to go to the bar with me.” You’ll understand once you have your own family. You don’t need other people in order to be great.

1:37:09 this - that is all. That entire explanation reminds me of Matthew 6:25-34.
Yes, pre-marital counseling is the best!
Also great video/interview.👍
Had a question reference your goat fencing in the tactical homesteading video. Are you able to describe how you have your goat fencing set up? I'm wanting to house 2 or 3 Nigerian dwarfs in an urban setting as well, and yours appears to be pallets with welded wire fencing. Just want to know how you have it held up and together, and if it's worked for you long term. Thank you!
I worked on the ocean on the oregon Coast as a teen. You can plug one ear, and it will help with getting sick
Wow! I thoroughly enjoyed this. It is thought provoking. Perhaps we all can re-evaluate. What we believe to be true. Open mind for a different view. Thank you.
Dude his breaking into the school story i was like was he with us ? Literally same thing in like summer 96 at our middle school in Hawthorne Ca.. HPHL Hawthorne police hockey league on a Saturday and a few of us broke off and climbed on the school and going through a alarmed gate alerted the cops jumps off the roof and ran .. (you choose poorly, not Indy)…. I’m a 39 year old dad of a 3 1/2 year old and everyday is a learning process but you guys have helped make me feel normal .. so thank you for that
Great conversation, God bless y'all ☦🤙
That last conversation was deep. There was a book I read about Jesus’ life. Desire of Ages. It has some profound insights and writings along those lines. Helps me a lot of things clearer or provoke further thought.

This is a great podcast kind of interview. Just chilling with a few ciders and it's like we are all sat in the pub chatting about it. How it's produced and edited! Good job guys!!
I learned more about being a better husband and father from this than how to survive, evade, resist, or escape
Absolutely serious stuff! And Great podcast!
Me and my friends use to find two telephone poles side-by-side each other on the opposite lanes of the road and then wrap clear wrap across the road using the telephone poles to stretch it super tight. Super fun game probably not the smartest game.
Hat off to the SERE guys.
Reaally solid informative videos from you guys, even the less serious fun ones. I really appreciated this one, especially the last few minutes.
PS you guys & PNW Guerilla are the best channels. Different flavors of the same sustainment-related content. You should get together on something, I think you all would complement each other very well.
You guys need to do a podcast just about raising a family with preparedness in mind, i would watch the crap out of that.
Nice interview! ✊🏾
Appreciate it. That means a lot!
I can still hear my grandmother teaching me to always pray for God to spare time. Only when God can spare The Winds of strife can we expect him to build his kingdom! Nobody is beyond the power of Grace to save them but we need to hurry because I also believe there is a time when the Holy Spirit will be withdrawn and we will need to stand on our own! This was one of those lectures that will always stand out in my mind. Thank you and God's blessings
So excited for this and thanks for bringing the car back to life guys. I would hope my friends would do the same with my cars
Incredible podcast
Great interview
This is OG Comanche Raider type survival. Sign me up. I want a week long class of this, just for the little tidbits like the electrolytes from eyeballs
There wasn’t a pair of swim trunks 🩳 or sweatpants with a string in four counties because we made bows. Those head knockers or Hawthorns and honey locust tree thorns are dangerous. 💯🇺🇸
Seriously a great podcast. That 108 minutes flew by. Some awesome stories and good food for thought. Really enjoyed the Judas discussion at the end. Keep it up!
Hey lol. I was on the other side of what he originally did haha. He was weapons, I was ammo hooligan. Started out in TACP but washed out after a year and ended up 2W0X1. Love those load toads though haha. Later tried for 1C4 but blew out my back. Shoulda gone SERE... good job lads!
Hah, "the fugitive" game sounds like a version of "ghosts in the graveyard" that we used to play as kids.
I wanted to chime in on your question "was there a moment Judas reached salvation". I was sharing this with my oldest son who is a campus pastor at North Carolina State and he immediately went to John 17:12- While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled. Your question is worthy of discussion but I feel this scripture pretty much answers your question.
Great video, nice to see the real people behind the content to come out in this conversation. QUESTION: Who makes that jacket you put on halfway through the video? ✝
A SEREnade to Survival, with a TWIST!
1:03:35, absolute truth. I wish I had listened to my inner voice
Came for SERE skills. Went back to search.
There needs to be a yearly game of fugitive with ALL the tactical and gun-tubers....
Newport oregon we played CB tag
Focus on family and yourself. Reference to the others , consider the risks and consequences. Be safe
Anyone find the thing about Bigfoot in the sere manual that they talk about?
I need to know how to get trained by Mitch Wiuff! is that possible? does he hold courses or seminars at all?
Glad to see fellow Christians out there. You guys aren't pushing anything. Just talking about what you believe, and not afraid of what people think or say. Very refreshing. Thanks guys
1:01:11 this part just kinda struck me, I had a thought even though it's not in the context of the discussion I wonder if the point still stands if you apply it to a broader societal context. The erasure of religion, the denigration of the US and it's folk heros, the distancing ones self from your own people or tribe, the atomization of society. I wonder, does that microcosm of the individual in a POW camp who lost the will to survive also apply to the macro scale?
I think it does. Granted I'm only 20 and a bit of an idiot but I think it may.
After almost 11 years of being an AMMO troop… I wish I put effort into cross training as a young Amn. SERE was the goal back then but I never made it a priority and now I am kicking myself. Not that it’s been a bad ride to move and deploy all over the world. But I don’t have the career fulfillment that I think SERE would have provided and I definitely don’t have the survival skills.
Dangit guys, I started eating lunch right as yall started talking about eating rabbit eyes 😂
Can you please put links to all he has on his backpack? Thanks
Don't listen to this guy. The best way to become a SERE specialist is to sign up for the job before going to basic, completing basic, and running away when your SERE training starts. If at the end of selection they don't find you, you're in, and you'll also get a call from Harvard.
Is this a joke or somehow true?
@@TravisClark1 it’s true
What brand and model of backpack are they using at the beginning of the video?
YES!
1:38:44 Hey Josh -- on the topic of the healing of America and timing -- I hope you don't hold yourself to the same timeline for repentence as you do America. You're a solid dude.
You, I, and our nation can change anything we want to change, and we can do it very fast. It's a satanic lie that it takes years and years and eons of eternity to repent. It takes exactly as long to repent as it takes us to say, “I’ll change”-and mean it.
Of course there's problems to work out and restitutions to make. We'll probably spend (and we better) the rest of our lives proving our repentance by its permanence. But change, growth, renewal, and repentance can come instantaneously. And the actual healing of the American system can take place as quickly as the Constitution healed a dieing infant of a country we were for 8 years before that.
I was just at the point of talking about severity, dehydration and regaining electrolytes of the eye ball.Does that apply to other animals you might trap or hunt?
Mitch is a very likeable dude.
Thanks guys. Really appreciate the last 1/4, and reevaluating perspective.
Soooo annual DC sponsored Fugitive games?
1:08:16 I may not be a Father yet but I remember Gordon Ramsey once said every man has two Jackets one for Work and one for being a Father when you get off work or when your Kids need you whatever it is no matter what weather Susie wants you to wear a tiara and play tea party or when Timmy need you to come to his soccer Game whatever you need to know when to take off the work jacket put on the father Jacket
Guys ive been trying to buy some of your merch but the store has been sold out of alot of stuff for a while. Wanna support yall bc I like your videos
Cool podcast. He looks like one of the two Tripolis Delta Operators in the Movie "13 Hours". :D
If I’m not mistaken one of those guys is the guy that owns half face blades. Bad ass knife company started. Dude was a seal I believe
some times the head cant relax at home when the lights are on
And all that sort of stuff
What packs are you guys wearing at the beginning of the video?
I just keep thinking about the rabbit eye lol
Josh did you work at trex arms behind the scenes years ago?
Yay!! Another video with SERE Jesus!
