As a Mississippi swampbilly, I'm curious as to what country in Europe do Germans consider to be the Mississippi of Europe? Because I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but we oyster crackers in Mississippi consider Germany to be our counterparts in Europe. And again, I sincerely apologize for bringing Germany into such a lowly comparison. But on the bright side, we have the best goddamn food on the planet! It's also the unhealthiest food on the planet, but we also have the worst education in the nation, so we're too goddamn dumb to know just how unhealthy it is, so fuck it! 😀
40:27 An EOD friend once told me this: When the war is over, in the first year, 80% of all landmines and uxo will be found. Over the next 20 years, they will find another 15%. It will take 200 years to find another 4%. That always leaves 1%. We find civil/revolutionary uxo in SC every few years.
That makes a lot of sense. Thank your EOD guy. The only caveat I can think is things like France's Red Forest, where the UXO is so bad, they just don't clean up.
@@westrim Its basically a nature preserve they made around a really bad section of what used to be the Western Front.

Evert living room-sized area for hundreds of square miles has a shell. It's Chernobyl for UXO.

Great vid. Came here from Linecrosser's channel. An observation from an outside (non-US) observer re "losing wars:" I believe that American senior leadership, including its strategic doctrine, believes that the way the first two World Wars ended is "normal." That a war is "won" when you drive your tanks over the rubble that once was their capital city and then occupy it for a few decades. And to be fair, that was the war the US was training for against the Soviets during the cold war, big and nasty and to the quick. But for other conflicts, I don't believe that there is a clear understanding in the US of what success is or how to prosecute it. Canada (my guys) fought in Afghanistan. There were successes, and they came at a cost. But it wasn't something we were there to "win." We won victories, sure. And we won them there, so we wouldn't have to fight for them on our own soil. But I don't believe anyone expected our enemies to be destroyed forever and Afghanistan would know peace and double-doubles. We just knocked them back for a while. Someday they'll regroup, and maybe they'll come back for us. We'll fight them again. England and France fought many times, in many wars. Both countries are still there. More often it's about foreign policy objectives, rather than "seeing your enemies flee before you and hearing the lamentations of their women." But none of that is you guys. You guys rock. Respect.
Shout out to my son who just got accepted into the JCU (part of JSOC). He SMASHED the PT (1st in Pushups, tied 1st in pull-ups, did a 23 minute 3-mile and even lapped the class, and broke the unit record for a plank with 4:30)
Congratulations, you have a special son. I hope he stays safe and accomplishes his goals and has a successful career. We thank him for his service to the country.
I might not be saying this the right way. But... Only in America can 3 grunts talk about serious topics in informed and sensible ways. You guys show us what is possible if we apply the intelligence God gave us.
This episode was great! The banter was chock full of interesting tidbits of history, tech and reminds me fondly of my time in uniform during the cold war USN. Please come back, this was so fun.
This was great, thank you guys for everything. Candid chats are always overlooked by a lot, but the wealth of offhand knowledge from the ebb and flow is sublime. Great work and always appreciated
IMHO: That part about the USA losing war. You do everything at the beginning excellent: strategy, equipment, logistics, etc.. that is the result of training, resources, advanced tech. Veni, vidi, vici from military perspective in first couple of months. But keeping territory for a longer time requires a different setup, especially where a lot of the civilian population is located. And that is not the fault of the regular army man, but the politicians. btw. great crew, greetings from Croatia!
If the point of a war is to change the culture in a place like Afghanistan, you need to impose the new culture for minimum of 50 years. You need to be there long enough that the grandchildren become the grandparents. At that point everybody has grown up under the new system. There will still be significant influence of the previous system but at that point at least there's a lot of people around who are much more comfortable with the new system. Sometimes changing the culture isn't necessary if you can change the leadership of the country. Getting rid of Hitler fixed Germany. Getting rid of Putin probably wouldn't fix Russia...
What a great team to see in my feed this morning! The bizarre misbehavior of the auto-focus on your main camera was a bit disconcerting, especially while watching Ryan's intro..... dunno what it was so intently attempting to focus on, but it wasn't Macbeth's goofy mug. Lol. Y'all rock. Let's do it again soon!?!
"You could put a seagall in front of a hypersonic missile.." That made me laugh harder than I'm comfortable with. Not so much for the seagall, but for the multi-million dollar single shot projectile that will now be missing its target.
Look at Ryan McBeth, folks. That's how a badass intel operative looks like in real life. HL is all fun and games since you get in his bad side and try to fly over his AO. Also, The Kid and Grandpa Buff are already internet legends. i've been seen Chris Cappy grow his channel and that's how you grind all the way to your dream. All of you have been on my feed for quite a while and will be there for a long time.
Damn I feel that getting home to nothing feeling Ryan mentioned. I got off the bus and saw my fellow Marines going to their families, and I got my divorce finalized while I was gone. Had no one there for me. Went to get into my new room and it was trashed. Dozens of empty beer cans, cigarettes put out of the headboard, Had a 6 pack of beer so I played a little music, went out for a smoke and some new duty LT said "Hey can't smoke there, turn your music down, can't have glass bottles on the barracks(that changed while I was gone), fix yourself or you will be speaking to 1st Sergeant in the morning." Jesus what an empty and bittersweet welcome home.
Long-time listener to Ryan Mcbeth, and an occasional Cappy listener. I completely enjoyed every bit of this interaction. Three is a great number for the right amount of mixing interactions. Yes Ryan could have spoken more, but he's an analyst so what do we expect in a live interaction. I'll tell you what would be super cool, if you guys had a similar sit-down, informal chat with Hamish, David, and Francis of The Telegraph. That show would cook!
Subconscious Synchronized drinking the moment the words "My Ex-wife" were mentioned. If it was an Olympic Sport, That would be gold medal worthy. 😁 You three dudes are the greatest. 🇺🇸
It's the cube ( X³ ) of the difference If 1 cubic inch weighs one ounce , a cube that's 2" wide will weigh eight ounces and a 3" wide cube would weigh 27 ounces.
My 2 favorite RUclips creators in one show. This was excellent! Thank you for bringing Ryan and Ethan together; first rate. I'll check out the host's content too. What I would wish social media was like generally.
For better or worse yall and many other RUclips channels have become our main trusted news source. With that comes a short leash of being trustworthy. Everyone makes mistakes but how the content creator handles it is everything. Many of us have no time for those who burn that trust and cant afford to give many second chances.
Good to hear from everyone, enjoyed the chat. However production note for the camera end. Auto Focus isn't always your friend, it will find and focus on exactly what you don't want to focus on, looked like the camera was regularly trying to focus on the mic, or the drinks over the guests/host.
About the 40mm vs 50mm thing. Its typically called the "square law". When you double the the exterior measurments (length and diameter) you quadruple the volume, so if you scale up a shell by 25% you get a +50% increase in volume.
I'll never get tired of watching Ryan McBeth content. and this double crossover was so rad (p.s. - thank you for not doing that terrible RUclipsr thing where you spoil the best part of the video at the very start as an "in this interview.....")
The casualty thing is so true, I’m Australian so I obviously focus more on the Australian efforts. In ww1 we lost 59,000 men kia and about 300,000 all up kia pow and injured. One statistic I found partially for the last year of ww1 was Australia made up 1% of allied forces on the western front. Inflicted 13% of all casualties on German troops. That means in a bare minimum Australia’s total war casualties broke even in the final year of the war and we are well ahead for the rest of it. In ww2 we had far fewer casualties of all types and fought at Tobruk the first place the 3rd reich was ever refused entry. Fought at El Alamein, fought in Gazala, fought at Milne bay, the first land defeat the Japanese ever had, in fact the Papua New Guinea campaign had 7000 American casualties 9000 Australian casualties and 200,000 Japanese casualties. So again it’s closing in on a 5-1 ratio at worst. Then you go to Korea, 300 Australians Kia. Fought t kapyong where an Australian battalion and Canadian battalion and New Zealand artillery battery defeated 10,000 Chinese soldiers. That was a 3 day battle in a 3 year war. Move to Vietnam 600 Australians Kia at long tan alone 108 Australians and a New Zealand artillery battery defeated a NVA division of 1500-2500 men in one afternoon meaning they inflicted roughly the total casualties for Australia in Vietnam on the NVA in 1 afternoon. Iraq, Afghanistan and Iraq again, Australia’s casualties are in the dozens in total maybe 60s and with the amount of guys I’ve spoken to about the places it’s safe to say we’ve inflicted more casualties again. The west don’t lose wars, we get bored and go home.

Habitual Spare Mcbeth. I feel like Ryan doesnt know what a day off is with all those jobs
McBeth is the Mutahar of the RUclips intelligence circle
Damn I feel that getting home to nothing feeling Ryan mentioned. I got off the bus and saw my fellow Marines going to their families, and I got my divorce finalized while I was gone. Had no one there for me. Went to get into my new room and it was trashed. Dozens of empty beer cans, cigarettes put out of the headboard, Had a 6 pack of beer so I played a little music, went out for a smoke and some new duty LT said "Hey can't smoke there, turn your music down, can't have glass bottles on the barracks(that changed while I was gone), fix yourself or you will be speaking to 1st Sergeant in the morning."
Jesus what an empty and bittersweet welcome home.
8:29
Might be the most gangster sentence ever. “I know how to find people”
Thanks guys!
Great show guys!
Long-time listener to Ryan Mcbeth, and an occasional Cappy listener. I completely enjoyed every bit of this interaction. Three is a great number for the right amount of mixing interactions. Yes Ryan could have spoken more, but he's an analyst so what do we expect in a live interaction. I'll tell you what would be super cool, if you guys had a similar sit-down, informal chat with Hamish, David, and Francis of The Telegraph. That show would cook!
Hey three of my favorite people in one place. Nice.
Great pod, thanks bros!
Subconscious Synchronized drinking the moment the words "My Ex-wife" were mentioned. If it was an Olympic Sport, That would be gold medal worthy. 😁
You three dudes are the greatest. 🇺🇸
At about 24:10. What cappy is talking about is the square/cube law. As surface area goes up, linearly volume goes exponentially.
the part when hes talking about why the 30mm was so much better than the 20 or 25. i think that covo starts closer to the 25:00 mark
It's the cube ( X³ ) of the difference
If 1 cubic inch weighs one ounce , a cube that's 2" wide will weigh eight ounces and a 3" wide cube would weigh 27 ounces.
Great discussion, thanks!
I really enjoyed this, it went by so quickly😱 I'm excited to see more
My 2 favorite RUclips creators in one show. This was excellent! Thank you for bringing Ryan and Ethan together; first rate. I'll check out the host's content too. What I would wish social media was like generally.
MIM-72 Chaparral. A LONG time ago, that 'system' was 'in effect'. That needs to be remembered and talked about.
We knew it was coming but im shaken it got dropped on first squad!!
Thanks. This was great info.
Holy hell, this is one hell of a line up!
Wish this was longer
That's what women say to me all the time.
@@RandomAussieGuy87 lmao
Two of my favorites
This is the best lineup for a podcast I could imagine. Please make this a regular forever thing.
Best day ever. Look forward to more like this from you three!!!!!
Crazy to see two of my second favorite channels on my first favorite
Some of my favorites!! Outstanding!
For better or worse yall and many other RUclips channels have become our main trusted news source. With that comes a short leash of being trustworthy. Everyone makes mistakes but how the content creator handles it is everything. Many of us have no time for those who burn that trust and cant afford to give many second chances.
Love this video, Chris! Thank you!!
Good to hear from everyone, enjoyed the chat. However production note for the camera end. Auto Focus isn't always your friend, it will find and focus on exactly what you don't want to focus on, looked like the camera was regularly trying to focus on the mic, or the drinks over the guests/host.
Ahhhhhh my geopolitics newsfeed in one podcast
About the 40mm vs 50mm thing. Its typically called the "square law". When you double the the exterior measurments (length and diameter) you quadruple the volume, so if you scale up a shell by 25% you get a +50% increase in volume.
Outstanding! Big fan of all three of ya.
Much love from Stockholm, Sweden.
Love the thumbnail. Real men are not afraid to show a little guy love.
please guys we need more of these
I'll never get tired of watching Ryan McBeth content. and this double crossover was so rad
(p.s. - thank you for not doing that terrible RUclipsr thing where you spoil the best part of the video at the very start as an "in this interview.....")
The casualty thing is so true, I’m Australian so I obviously focus more on the Australian efforts. In ww1 we lost 59,000 men kia and about 300,000 all up kia pow and injured. One statistic I found partially for the last year of ww1 was Australia made up 1% of allied forces on the western front. Inflicted 13% of all casualties on German troops. That means in a bare minimum Australia’s total war casualties broke even in the final year of the war and we are well ahead for the rest of it. In ww2 we had far fewer casualties of all types and fought at Tobruk the first place the 3rd reich was ever refused entry. Fought at El Alamein, fought in Gazala, fought at Milne bay, the first land defeat the Japanese ever had, in fact the Papua New Guinea campaign had 7000 American casualties 9000 Australian casualties and 200,000 Japanese casualties. So again it’s closing in on a 5-1 ratio at worst. Then you go to Korea, 300 Australians Kia. Fought t kapyong where an Australian battalion and Canadian battalion and New Zealand artillery battery defeated 10,000 Chinese soldiers. That was a 3 day battle in a 3 year war. Move to Vietnam 600 Australians Kia at long tan alone 108 Australians and a New Zealand artillery battery defeated a NVA division of 1500-2500 men in one afternoon meaning they inflicted roughly the total casualties for Australia in Vietnam on the NVA in 1 afternoon. Iraq, Afghanistan and Iraq again, Australia’s casualties are in the dozens in total maybe 60s and with the amount of guys I’ve spoken to about the places it’s safe to say we’ve inflicted more casualties again. The west don’t lose wars, we get bored and go home.
This makes it so easy for me i watch everyone of u. Hell yea keep it going
