He's also just an incredibly good interviewer in general, especially for someone not typically "media-trained". Better than most of the clowns on TV these days.
It was interesting watching Theo in this interview. A little awkward. Typically I could imagine Jocko goofing on a guy like him, could definitely feel that undercurrent, but he really got a lot out of Theo. A lot Theo bearing his soul and a lot of uncomfortable truths without the humor. Pretty cool.
Theo is a fucking wordsmith. He knows who he’s talking to and how to talk to them and when to put the right words in the right places. It’s an amazing art to watch and listen to.
Actually very typical of addicts.. people that are struggling with life learn to be great observers and negotiators, sometimes to the good, sometimes not. Savvy, maybe?
@@rpjswish maybe that’s a part of it. Maybe it’s part of his personality/character to be that observant and to be able to put his thoughts into words in a fluid and organic way. Maybe it has to do with how he was raised and the experiences he traversed then.
I def agree. He plays up the small town uneducated persona, but I’ve always been able to tell that he’s very intelligent. He’s just got a funny personality that he can convey complex humor in an every day normal hilarious dude way. But he’s definitely not a dummy. I’d go as far to say that he’s on another level of intellect to be able to explain anything in a simple way which makes it hilarious.
The fact that jocko laughed that off instead of making it uncomfortable shows how much jocko likes Theo, he brought him on knowing fully well that Theo would make an outrageous joke like that. It’s kinda like Theo’s way of testing if someone is trustworthy. Watch Theo’s podcast where he had jocko on and it was totally different, jocko busts his balls a little at first until he gauges Theo’s style. Knowing Theo a lot better in this interview, Jocko is aware that if he just takes a step back and gives Theo a platform. This shows how much humility Jocko has and how he can build someone up given that Theo has struggled with figuring himself out in the past.
Yes! Pls make Jocko consider releasing a muckbang video. At 13:30 in this episode Jocko is called out to muckbang !!! A Jocko muckbang will elevate that genre Do it do it do it
@@jamesw.blatch1584 it's an odd match but you can tell they genuinely like each other. He must be so easy to get along with. Half the people theo has on they end up being really good friends
Yes, how's Theo's podcast when Theo ask Jocko about the Hanoi Hilton. It's not like the real Hilton right ..... bless Theo s cotton socks. I've watched this about twenty times and I laugh for ten min afterwards every time🤣 interesting contrast of characters, great viewing.
30:16 "You can't think your way into right action but you can act your way into right thinking." Thank you for that Theo! Just the insight I needed this moment. I appreciate you man.
You can think and think, brooding and pondering, but you’ll keep on acting the same. But if you can change how you act, act the way you imagine you should, you’ll actually start to think the way you should be thinking.
@@CRonaldo365 I disagree. I do think he should be tougher but I also believe he really is naturally extra sensitive. Have you ever done lsd? because his sensitivity reminds me of my times on it. it really opens up your emotions and you feel every little implication deeply and sharply, and it cant be easy living life like that
Jocko's first interview with theo was something special. For the first 20 minutes or so, Jocko seemed really standoffish, unnerved, almost like he wasn't sure if Theo was making fun of him in a way he didn't quite understand. And then, a switch flips and he sees Theo for what he really is. Just a regular dude trying to make sense of the world through laughter. We need more of it.
Congrats man, I'm at 8 months myself. Seems to get easier the longer I go. Looking forward to the rest of my life sober and I wish you the best in your journey as well.
Can’t wait to be there man. Starting detox within a week or so and can relate to you, both these men have helped me a lot. Congrats to you brother, wish me luck
I guffawed like goofy when he said that. I normally don't listen to jocko's FULL podcasts. Just clips. This whole podcast was not only humorous but it made me realize alot about myself and theo. Actions and repercussions. It was a jewel. Gang gang.

Theo is real people. Stay on him. He needs people that love him. Show him how much you care about him. It’ll make the difference between strength and fragility. ♡
This makes me so happy, Jocko understands Theo enough not to interrupt him, let Theo hash out his thought amd Jocko goes along with it. This was great.
The more I hear Theo talk about his mental struggles, the more I see myself in him. I can relate to feeling self conscious of having an older father and a dysfunctional family that’s very different from my peers’s family. I understand that unwelcomed feeling and never feeling like I’m enough no matter how much others reassure me I’m good. His vids on his YT channel has been therapeutic as I struggle to overcome the traumas of my past alongside Theo.
I support everything Theo does TPW, KATS, and I've never connected with any comedian like i have with theo. He's a tortured soul. I truly think he will go down as a comedy legend.
@@nomammessss6031 The OP said they like tortured souls, then they would probably like Tim Dillon. They aren't really all that opposite at all, they probably share a lot of audience. Different styles, format, and flow, but they both have the tortured souls thing going. Also, I can do whatever I want are you the comment section police because I won't comply.
Theo’s mind is an incredibly unique tour guide that sometimes takes you down unfamiliar and often uncomfortable paths. Bringing him to this rather structured and serious podcast and letting him do his thing and just going with the flow… man, this was a great episode.
Big fan of Theo's but also of this podcast. When Theo said last week he was going to be on Jocko I was excited but honestly pretty nervous about this would play out. Absolute left turn for the typical content of this podcast. But damn Theo killed it. He's even more hilarious in the format of this show and had a lot of good shit to say. Guy is a legend and one of the greatest comics ever. Also, not going to spoil it for anyone reading comments but that CGI joke was gold. Haven't laughed this hard in awhile.
You can see Echo has a big sense of humor from when Jocko pokes at him on the clips. To see him cracking up then Jocko cracking up in a podcast this serious... proof Theo's comedy is on some guerrilla warfare humor level. Straight creepin, coming in from all sides. You don't see it coming until it's too late and you're blowing leche out your dome. Just a couple mentals blowing leche out their nose bruh, that's when you know you might be gifted with something. Gang
I have a very addictive personality and I’ve always called myself “a creature of habit” I guess in a subconscious effort to avoid really dealing with it and what Theo said about “u can’t think ur way into right action but u can act ur way into right thinking” really struck a chord with me.
I love how Theo and Jocko meet halfway in this and how Jocko just "gets it" but Theo gets a bit deeper and more serious. So awesome to see this collaboration
"The moss of life can't grow on you. You keep outrunning it." I mean...that's realy good. You'd think a great writer from a long time ago came up with that. Theo is just brilliant!
Everybody loves Theo. This dude connects difference races, nationalities and different sects of people. He’s versatile enough to be on the damn Jocko Podcast.
1:18:34 Theo: You still dont say anything huh? Echo: Im just listening haha Theo: Well, ya know....you can listen at home, you're making people uncomfortable 😂😂😂😂
Theo would be the guy in the platoon who finds out in the end of the day through thick and thin he actually was a leader all along. And a funny one at that. Theo's got a blessed mind and soul.
With the passing of norm, Theo has become even more cherished. A unique perspective and effortlessly funny with a heart of gold and a fearlessness in confessing how he really feels about things. Different methods and no one can compare to norm, but damn if it’s not good to have a young chunk of coal ready to take the torch. Gang bruh
Man Theo is like the new a Southern poet. When I watch his podcast he’ll always come up with a phrase or way of saying something that just floors me. I think “Only Theo would describe something in that way.” And I love when he has normal everyday people on like a lady truck driver or a plumber. They always have such amazing stories. Sometimes funnier than some of the comedians or celebrities he has on.
Yeah it’s hard to relate to the stories of comedians and celebrities because they always talk about LA and that culture that people outside of LA likely have no context of
Echo is the best co host there is. Extremely aware, never interrupts or break ups good conversation, and really great take aways and observations from the conversation.
Awesome change of pace having Theo on. The goofiness, hearing consistent laughter and a little bit of different side of Jocko, is very entertaining. Both guys great conversationalist and terrific podcasters. Incredible episode.
My Dad wasn’t quite as old as Theo’s but he was in that kind of age range. It’s actually very comforting to hear someone else talk about it, because it’s a pretty rare situation, but it has such an enormous impact on growing up and your outlook on life.
This is such a perfect atmosphere for Theo's comedy to shine. It's all black and white (very serious) In one frame you have a very solemn Jocko who's nature is intense, contemplating the core issues of humanity. In the next frame you have Theo: "uhhh..... I'm from Louisiana...... its a good place..... we have a tall statue of Ronald Regan"
I love how Jocko tried to keep on topic and remain serious but Theo just kept making him laugh. Never seen Jocko laugh so much in a single podcast. "Cgi" Theo "nah he was a white dude" Then the rice confusion , hes just both intentionally funny and accidentally funny. What perfect storm of character for comedy.
most serious moment Theo " I wonder what it would be funny to watch you eat... a MANGO i bet!" Jocko " I don't even like mangos" Theo " That makes it even better for us."
Love seeing Theo here and love Jocko’s welcoming and accommodating behavior to make Theo feel more at ease being on the podcast. Different perspectives are essential and this is a nice change of pace for this show. Much love to you all, including the listeners!
I have reflected on my own situations and discovered that I elevate and turn to a lighter mode to comfort myself and if others are struggling to help them along through the path of laughter. It works
I relate to how Theo felt growing up. Crazy to hear someone that’s been through similar feelings. Glad Theo is doin awesome now! Funniest guy I’ve seen
spot on jocko. the reason i love theo is his realness. my ears perked up on his addiction video when he started crying. i said damn this dude is the man. great job men.
Sitting across from Jocko, your vision blurring into black and white Jocko: “there’s chocolate chip and then everything else” Not sure if these are his last words, Theo: “I don’t know if I agree with that sir” 😂
@Philly Cheesedick thats about the stupidest thing ive seen someone ever comment. Makes sense if your from philly tho lol. Who pissed on your choco chip cookies bud?
''if i dont do physical stuff i dont feel as good mentally and thats exactly when i try not to judge myself cuz i feel like im not giving myself a fair chance'' - theo von love this guy
Jocko changing his interview style to make Theo feel comfortable makes you realize how good of a leader jocko really is.
He's also just an incredibly good interviewer in general, especially for someone not typically "media-trained". Better than most of the clowns on TV these days.
@@frenchonion4595 definitely has
This is such a true comment, I thought the same thing
Agree 100 percent, I felt it too, Theo was honest, and Jocko bought him back in, instantly.
Great leader.

Typically I could imagine Jocko goofing on a guy like him, could definitely feel that undercurrent, but he really got a lot out of Theo. A lot Theo bearing his soul and a lot of uncomfortable truths without the humor. Pretty cool.

Theo: "He had a comb."
Jocko: “How did you handle that crushing sense of disappointment?”
Theo: “I was with this big ol’ thick girl.”
LMAO!!!
Hahajahahahahaja only fkn Theo could fire back with that 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He had a nice small comb
....I'm crying. hilarious
One thing I’ve always appreciated about Theo, no matter who’s podcast he’s on he always makes sure to involve everyone in the room
I noticed that on joes podcast. He kept turning to Jamie when talking and I thought it was really cool
He has to make sure that everyone is engaged and therefore he feels safe
@@Duality333I always prefer the guests who try to involve Jamie
he knows what its like to be the guy in the room nobodys talking to
This shows the humorous aspect of Jocko's personality. By far, Jocko's best non-military themed podcast.
58:13 jocko has such a fucking contagious laugh
@Twilight Coda Or, human being
Rat King baby!!!
Not gunna lie it's the 1st jocko podcast that is not military
But wait, there's more. Check out when Jocko was on Theo's podcast. You'll see more of Jocko's sense of humour.
Theo is something like the special operations unit of comedy. He’s the best.
Drops in
Takes care of the mission - laughter
Disappears into the wind
It's organic unmanufactured comedy, like something that he developed early on in life that wasnt corrupted by money and fame.
Theo familiar in the unconventional arts
bill burr is #1 before, now after ALL theo von is #2 n i like #3 doug stanhope tho i can say many but 1, 2 are forever!....

@@dirtmouf
Love this comment

Theo's one of my heros. Never had any growing up.
Theo Von dropping a MS-DOS joke casually. This guy has an incredible brain. One of a kind. Thanks Jocko and Theo. You guys are great together.
his knowledge of stuff is so wide that its surprises me he pulls them out randomly.
He has the insane ability to not give a fuck if anyone gets the reference. I wish I was as quick
I def agree. He plays up the small town uneducated persona, but I’ve always been able to tell that he’s very intelligent. He’s just got a funny personality that he can convey complex humor in an every day normal hilarious dude way. But he’s definitely not a dummy. I’d go as far to say that he’s on another level of intellect to be able to explain anything in a simple way which makes it hilarious.
Imagine telling Jocko Willink that it would be fun to watch him eat a Mango 😂😂😂
In a S-size shirt, gang
The fact that jocko laughed that off instead of making it uncomfortable shows how much jocko likes Theo, he brought him on knowing fully well that Theo would make an outrageous joke like that. It’s kinda like Theo’s way of testing if someone is trustworthy.

Seriously lol!
Perfect combo. Jocko is as intense as they come and Theo is as mellow as they come.

@@thanosdarkseid8695 You must not read.
@@Johnwilkinsonofficial around the 37 min mark.
You can see Echo has a big sense of humor from when Jocko pokes at him on the clips. To see him cracking up then Jocko cracking up in a podcast this serious... proof Theo's comedy is on some guerrilla warfare humor level. Straight creepin, coming in from all sides. You don't see it coming until it's too late and you're blowing leche out your dome. Just a couple mentals blowing leche out their nose bruh, that's when you know you might be gifted with something. Gang
Two sawed off humans right there
I read your comment in Theo's voice. It was very fitting
Gang bruh
Theo is way smarter than he lets on and I love it
I have watched a lot of Jocko's podcasts, Never have I seen anybody lean in front of the camera during the opening segment. Only Theo, fitting.
the mullet made a cameo
The best part was he kept doing it!
For whatever reason I loved it.
I have a very addictive personality and I’ve always called myself “a creature of habit” I guess in a subconscious effort to avoid really dealing with it and what Theo said about “u can’t think ur way into right action but u can act ur way into right thinking” really struck a chord with me.
That’s an AA saying
@@tjmcnasty3928 yeah it’s a real good one, I’ve never been to AA my addictions aren’t alcohol related
@@samobviously1770 na uses alot of the same practices in my experience it's nice to have similar struggles to connect to to keep moving
Such truth in that statement.
I love how Theo and Jocko meet halfway in this and how Jocko just "gets it" but Theo gets a bit deeper and more serious. So awesome to see this collaboration
Man, jocko's respect and love for Theo is awesome. These two are such an unlikely pair, it's fkn magic man
"The moss of life can't grow on you. You keep outrunning it."
I mean...that's realy good. You'd think a great writer from a long time ago came up with that. Theo is just brilliant!
Absolutely.
I know. Theo really needs to write a book ...
I mean its a riff on "a rolling Stone gathers no moss" but yeah, well said
A rolling stone carries no moss, keep L-I-V-I-N-G
58:22
Theo: “For somebody named Echo you dont even repeat much dawg “ 😂😂
Everybody loves Theo. This dude connects difference races, nationalities and different sects of people. He’s versatile enough to be on the damn Jocko Podcast.
Theo is one of the most amazing people in the planet. We need him.
1:18:34 Theo: You still dont say anything huh?
Echo: Im just listening haha
Theo: Well, ya know....you can listen at home, you're making people uncomfortable
😂😂😂😂
Theo is one of the few comedians I’ve seen who is intrinsically, seemingly effortlessly, funny
Facts
Theo would be the guy in the platoon who finds out in the end of the day through thick and thin he actually was a leader all along. And a funny one at that. Theo's got a blessed mind and soul.
He's a natural spirits leader, without being a hippy type deliberately letting you know he's that guy
I've never seen Jocko laugh so much. Theo is crazy funny and just crazy too.
Crazy, random shit is expected from theo
With the passing of norm, Theo has become even more cherished. A unique perspective and effortlessly funny with a heart of gold and a fearlessness in confessing how he really feels about things.
Different methods and no one can compare to norm, but damn if it’s not good to have a young chunk of coal ready to take the torch.
Gang bruh
Gang Gang! Theo has received the torch for me personally. He’s open, raw, and speaks truth. He is unique and of course he’s hilarious.
I always felt like Theo had Norm elements about him
My boy beams norm, to easily. Long live the rat king! 👑🐀
He’s got the heart of a lesbian
And trevor moore. Rip..
Man Theo is like the new a Southern poet. When I watch his podcast he’ll always come up with a phrase or way of saying something that just floors me. I think “Only Theo would describe something in that way.” And I love when he has normal everyday people on like a lady truck driver or a plumber. They always have such amazing stories. Sometimes funnier than some of the comedians or celebrities he has on.
Yeah it’s hard to relate to the stories of comedians and celebrities because they always talk about LA and that culture that people outside of LA likely have no context of
He’s a wordsmith with a monster dose of relatability
Jocko is a psychologist at heart, just ended up in the navy which was probably good for him. Glad hes doing things like this now.
Echo, "Thats an advanced rice..." LMAO!
Jocko seems to have a thing for Theo hahaa Theo is naturally hilarious
Who doesn't?
@@revalfresh that's affirmative
Theo is a good soul. Refreshing views on things.
Like a little brother kinda seems
Have a thing? #nohomo
Echo is the best co host there is. Extremely aware, never interrupts or break ups good conversation, and really great take aways and observations from the conversation.
Theo’s improv work is next level. You’re a comic to the core when you’re that funny on the fly.
What's crazy is it seems like he still, STILL doesn't even think he's that funny really.
"For a guy named Echo, youre sure are quiet"
-Theo Von
He is quite what?
Time stamp?
Bro never thought of that!! 😂
You have a time stamp provided and couldn’t even get the quote right
He switches from deep to hilarious so smoothly. Quality.
Awesome change of pace having Theo on. The goofiness, hearing consistent laughter and a little bit of different side of Jocko, is very entertaining. Both guys great conversationalist and terrific podcasters. Incredible episode.
58:19 hearing Jocko wheeze from laughing so hard is the best thing Ive ever heard😂😂😂
The escalation 😂
🤣
Seriously why I stopped listening to it on Spotify and opened up TH-cam
The best
Reminded me of the laugh in the pepper scene from Dumb n Dumber 🤣
My Dad wasn’t quite as old as Theo’s but he was in that kind of age range. It’s actually very comforting to hear someone else talk about it, because it’s a pretty rare situation, but it has such an enormous impact on growing up and your outlook on life.
If Jocko runs for president, Theo has to be on the cabinet.
I would vote jocko every year till it happened
Theo - secretary of education
@@kevmat8163 embassador to the dark arts.
Court Jester
He'd be the best press secretary
This is such a perfect atmosphere for Theo's comedy to shine. It's all black and white (very serious) In one frame you have a very solemn Jocko who's nature is intense, contemplating the core issues of humanity. In the next frame you have Theo: "uhhh..... I'm from Louisiana...... its a good place..... we have a tall statue of Ronald Regan"
Cool to hear Theo talk about God, love it. Good podcast
Absolutely
I love how Jocko tried to keep on topic and remain serious but Theo just kept making him laugh. Never seen Jocko laugh so much in a single podcast. "Cgi" Theo "nah he was a white dude" Then the rice confusion , hes just both intentionally funny and accidentally funny. What perfect storm of character for comedy.
No matter what Theo talks about, even the most tragic thing, he has a way to make it sound so funny without even trying.
what a beautiful human. something so innocent about him that makes you want to protect him almost like a child.
most serious moment
Theo " I wonder what it would be funny to watch you eat... a MANGO i bet!"
Jocko " I don't even like mangos"
Theo " That makes it even better for us."
Given the recent passing of Norm Macdonald this seems more relevant than ever.
Rip Norm. He was the absolute best.
Wtf? Norm Mcdonald is gone? Damn....! That hurts! RIP Norm, fk Bro!!! 😔✝️🙏
RIP Norm
@@AMG-316 WTF?! I didn't know Norm passed away either.. damn. He was one of my favorites, wow.. RIP to the legend
I didnt even know he was sick!
i love how theo just sometimes goes off an says some hilarious shit, then goes right back into telling his story. Love his work.
“Everybody has their Vietnam” hell yeah brothers
Love seeing Theo here and love Jocko’s welcoming and accommodating behavior to make Theo feel more at ease being on the podcast. Different perspectives are essential and this is a nice change of pace for this show. Much love to you all, including the listeners!
do they usually look super uncomfortable? O_o...loool
I love this. Seeing a friendship between Jocko and Theo is a treasure.
I love Theo so much. Laugher comes so easy with him, and jockos jolly deep laugh makes all that much better.
Laughter is one of the most important and overlooked expressions to experience as a human.
Hard to do that when everyone is always at each other’s throats
Soooo truuuue
I have reflected on my own situations and discovered that I elevate and turn to a lighter mode to comfort myself and if others are struggling to help them along through the path of laughter. It works
I relate to how Theo felt growing up. Crazy to hear someone that’s been through similar feelings. Glad Theo is doin awesome now! Funniest guy I’ve seen
BIG FACTS
struggle didn’t break him
Merely molded him to be great!
💯
Same, never woukd of thought Someone went thru the same things
I have a deep and meaningful relationship with both of these men, and I've never met either one of them.
That’s weird.
I’ve had a deep and meaningful with Theo for like 3 years. He has no idea.
Jocko and Theo have such a great dynamic. I love how Theo can really bring the goofy out of people.
spot on jocko. the reason i love theo is his realness. my ears perked up on his addiction video when he started crying. i said damn this dude is the man. great job men.
Sitting across from Jocko, your vision blurring into black and white
Jocko: “there’s chocolate chip and then everything else”
Not sure if these are his last words,
Theo: “I don’t know if I agree with that sir”
😂
the way he said it, that me dying!!!!!
I’m a Cookie Monster at home and this really struck a chord with me
@Philly Cheesedick you are a bland, vanilla sprinkled loving cooking monster. May god have mercy on your soul
Right 😂😂😂😂
@Philly Cheesedick thats about the stupidest thing ive seen someone ever comment. Makes sense if your from philly tho lol. Who pissed on your choco chip cookies bud?
Love Theo ❤️ wished I could give him a big hug. His podcast has done so much for me. Thankful for it.
Gang!
''if i dont do physical stuff i dont feel as good mentally and thats exactly when i try not to judge myself cuz i feel like im not giving myself a fair chance'' - theo von
love this guy
I've never heard Jocko laugh so much. Ever. Jocko and Theo's relationship it's genuinely awesome.
"You can’t think your way into right action, but you can act your way into right thinking." 30:15
definitely :)!
Straight outta the big book
Theo and Jocko are two such evolved Americans I love this episode
For real, so good!
I was crying with laughter multiple times through this episode.
“Knuckling through some chowder.”
