  • Clint reminds me of a SEAL from Team 3 I met at their table on USS Denver during San Francisco Fleet Week back in '97. I remember thinking those guys looked like lethal surfers :).
  • @dirigoelectric
    Of all the SEALS I’ve learned about, Clint is one of the most impressive. The cool, quiet, non bragging way of talking is great to watch. Still a badass for sure.
  • @nmr6988
    Thank you, Jack Carr, for having Clint Emerson and all the best guests.
  • I had a neighbor who was a Navy seal who did 3 tours in Vietnam. A great guy... He had many amazing stories. Fascinating show. First time I've watch. 👍🏼
  • @addiroids
    Saw this guy speak at a buddy’s Navy SEAL retirement on July 25th 2021 and he did an awesome and hilarious speech / roasting. Thanks for your expertise man.
  • @matt-hew69
    I enjoy both Clints and Mike Ritlands books and content. So cool they served together.
  • I enjoy listening to both of you talking. Neither one of you has said a cuss word. I have listened to other Veterans podcasts and it is like every other word is a cuss word. You both show that your vocabulary does not have to include cuss words in order to make a point, etc. Thank you and GOD bless you both.
  • The biggest crush & admiration for Clint 😍😍😍. Jack’s books are so full of life & grit.
  • Crazy... almost all the stunt guys I communicate with in LA kind of talk like Clint. Same intonation, same little linguistic things like the quasi-Texan (and non-valley) pronunciation of some vowels, cadence, the misc "what?"s and even the laugh. And most of these guys aren't veterans, but they're mostly working with the 87Eleven team, who did John Wick, and that movie was a conduit for the interface between soldiers and the stunt scene in the past 15 years (Chad and David and JJ were working with a lot of veterans through the whole process), and so the communication style has percolated down. Also thank you for your service.
  • I bought my wife his Rugged Life book, shes been engrossed in it and has already learned and applied skills she learned from it. Using the skills I learned growing up in a backwoods compound, and what she's learning we're slowly transitioning to a self-sufficient homestead. Thank you so much
  • @jilllathers9215
    Absolutely loving this. Going after the books. Exciting. Awe. Thank you gentlemen. So blessed to have men like you protecting USA 🇺🇸🥰
  • @KrisSays
    Studs! Thank you for your service gentlemen!
  • Remember you all, I was 1/2 Charlie Company, Task Force Tarawa, Ambush Alley, March 23, 2003
  • It's important to have museums because the lessons of the past were purchased with blood. Museums overcome institutional Alzheimer's by preserving those past lessons. I volunteer at a local Air Force museum and there are things other than aircraft on display. That spy museum would be nice to visit--once travel restrictions are lifted.
  • I was getting ready to go to music fundamentals in my freshman year. Woke up, saw #2 on fire and watched 2nd plane hit. Went to class and there was only like 2 other students present. It just didn't occur to me to skip lol. 3 months later i enlisted in the Army.

    I love how the command was holding up SEALs from taking the initiative but Recon is fed into the meat grinder like clockwork.
