@@PseudoswedeI'm totally down to be a franchisee in Indiana... We have some pretty fantastic gun laws everywhere aside from 2 or 3 counties. But I happen to live in one of the "2A Sanctuary" counties where the police WILL NOT assist State/Feds or charge any non-prohibited-possessors for so-called "gun regulation crimes" (because ALL firearms/guns are fully protected under the Second Amendment unless someone has lost those rights after due process.) In fact, I've had officers in my small town tell me that they have naughty guns/parts and couldn't care less if anyone else does either so long as they're not used to harm another person or infringe on their rights. One dude was telling me some stuff and then stopped mid-sentence to say "...don't tell anyone THIS...and don't tell me anything you might have..." I couldn't stop laughing because I was like 'Well, that's good to know but I'm totally clean.' I also explained to him that I've studied all of the (unconstitutional) gun laws in depth and even mentioned that a couple "iffy" guns that he may or may not have had were actually totally fine. It was a pretty hilarious conversation considering that most of it started with, "what if someone had a gun that was _____." I got to show off a bit, explain the 26-inch OAL rule, pistol braces, and certain definitions that define the difference between "OKAY" and "Felony." I also found out that one of their guys was on the HMPD and knew one of my friends that I helped with his guns despite being 1000 miles away 🤣😂
I love the way that Eli is always the one to both totally derail the conversation and then put it back on track with zero warning 🤣😂. THAT is the Tism Touch, for ya
I’ve always thought that they should grab a group of 10 of pepper box gang and have Rich put on the full drill uniform use demo ranch and do a full basic training series
1:44:25 Nick, with all love, you meant Prometheus. Sisyphus is the patron saint of E1-E4s that was tasked with pushing a boulder up a mountain for eternity, only for it to reach the top, NOT be able to rest there because it is literally a point, and have it to roll down the other side of the hill and have to start again. Definition of punitive tasks in the junior ranks.
6:43 there’s a reason Superman got away with claiming to be a normal human from Kansas. Pure midwestern corn fed beef doesn’t just apply to the cattle 😂
Didn't realize I couldn't comment on Xbox so now I'm on my phone. Getting this video after only 1 minute is amazing. And love that we're getting more and more awesome people on the podcast.
That senator fearing Guam would capsize reminded me of an officer who asked me what powered a mortar system one time. This guy was convinced that a mortar system required electricity or propane to work. He couldn't grasp the concept that there's a firing pin in the base cap of the tube that ignites the mortar launching. I had to walk outside and laugh mid talk.
My favourite WMD story is the Japanese weapon that was set to drop on the U.S. 3 days later than fatman. It was a bomb that airburst and dropped thousands of ticks infected with the bubonic plague. The bacteria clogged the "throats" of the ticks, causing them to starve, but they would bite anything they touched, trying to suck blood, and instead infecting the hosts with the plague.
1:43:00 The crazy thing to think about with that 900mph number is, that, as per nic's video, the p38 lighting was a very fast fighter for early WW2. it could go in excess of 300mph. Felix Baumgartner was in nothing but a suit, going THREE TIMES FASTER than the WW2 ace of aces, Richard Bong. homie was honest to god hauling ass and a half.
1:44:27 Sorry Nick my mythologytism went off here. Prometheus is the dude who gave fire to the Greeks, and Sisyphus is the guy pushing the very large stone. 😂😂
Just wanted to thank these guys for doing what they do and veteran health awareness. These episodes have helped me during my wife’s hospitalization and pushing through. She has been able to fight off the viral pneumonia but the road to recovery will take time. Thank you again unsub ❤
one of the funniest things that i've ever heard these guys talk about is when they left a convention last year and walked across the road to a bar. the bar wasn't open yet, and the bartender said, "we don't open for another hour!" and nick said, "yeah, but we're alcoholics right NOW!!"
Im so happy they finally got Brandon Herrera to open up specifically about this part of his service. Kevin is also talking about a different part of medal of honor recipient Brandon iron man Herrera. Double salute 🫡 thank you for your service.
507th was the maintenance unit Jessica Lynch was in. They were part of my battalion, 5/52 ADA. They got separated when their vehicles kept getting stuck in the fine sand and fell out of comms range. Captain King didn't know that we were bypassing Nasariyah. LTC Fischetti told before we crossed the berm that if we didn't keep up, we'd get left behind. My team and two M113s from 3rd FSB ended up being the first to reach the new Attack Point, we were alone for over a day because everyone else was getting stuck.
Haven't watched the episode as I'm till trying to catch up but I just want to thank you guys for the entertainment from these podcasts. It's really been a major help for me dealing with the death of my cat that I helped deliver and raised for 14 years. It's been a rough time but being able to hear you guys shoot shit in the background of whatever I am doing and the occasional laugh has been a MASSIVE help on my mental state. Thank you guys for keeping this going. I'm still around 70 episodes behind but I just wanted to let you guys know that you're making a big impact for me.
Terry has a story that sounds kinda familiar. I grew up on a dairy farm in rural NC at my grandpa’s. Divorced parents kind of let them raise me. I enlisted in March of 89, arrived at my reception battalion at Ft. Benning on the 1st of July, started training in the 4th. Half way through 11B training I was “selected” to do additional training. I had no idea what I had gotten myself into. Harmony Church was an adventure when you see a lot of the other recruits living in those nice, clean, new “Star ships” or whatever the hell they call them these days.
Losing Atomic Annie wasn't the only time the Army lost a 100 ton weapon. The T28/T95 super heavy tank was "forgotten" in a field near Aberdeen for 27 years. The picture of the condition it was found in shows it hiding behind a bush. A small bush.
I wish I could be on the unsubscribe podcast. Like Brandon, I’ve also never been in the military, but I’ve got 23 years in Fire/EMS, law enforcement, and now I practice critical care medicine. So I’ve got stories for days on stuff that these guys, who I admire a lot, talk about all the time. Especially Doughnut. Love the podcast guys!
Ethan, that's me too bro, I may have had it once but not now. And it's funny, I am the same age as Terry, signed up in 92, but completely opposite. I did months of research and went in the army signal corps. Thought I would get out and get a 6 figure job in the tech industy😂 some 20 odd years later here I am working for the railroad and still getting rained on.
It was for the Mk 153 SMAW (Shoulder-launched Multipurpose Assault Weapon) not the AT4. The thermobaric round was called the Mk 80 Mod 0 Encased Novel Explosive (SMAW-NE) rocket.
@@ginacalabrese3869 Yeah I knew the SMAW had a TB warhead but I coulda swore I read somewhere a few months ago there was one for the AT4 as well, but now I can't find the link. Is this the Mandela Effect or do I need a prescription for schizophrenia meds? This is wild.
So I was an 0351 and we had an NE round (Novel Explosive) for our SMAW that was really close to what they're talking about around 44:00 and it absolutely woulda been in use between 02-05.
I'm a couple years older than Terry, joined in 90, was finishing Jump School as GW1 ground war kicks off, turned 19 between Jump and Rigger School I didn't do anything super cool, just made sure chutes opened correctly for the guys that used them
If I remember correctly from the 0351 course the smaw rocket launcher had a round called the novel explosive which I believe was a thermo. We called it the unicorn cause nobody had ever seen one.
You know what this episode missed? Terry getting invited to join the Offenders! Would have loved to hear his power and offset, especially with a resume like his!
It's the perfect day. I woke up to a new Hodge twins podcast and now I've got a fresh addition from you guys, can already tell im gonnalaugh more today than any other day in recent memory.
This is now my favorite episode. My last CO was the CO of the Bainbridge during the Captain Phillips incident. He took command of our cruiser one month before our 2015-16 deployment and he would tell us about the operation whenever we asked about it and he’d always say there was no problems working with the seals. The greatest compliment I have ever gotten was when we were at a reunion a few years ago and he spotted me in the crowd, walked up grabbed me by the shoulder, spun me around, grabbed my hand and shook it and said hey boats it’s great to see you again. I would drop everything if I got the chance to serve with him again.
Ever since my liver and heart started falling I got hooked on all of you all + rich, donut,Matt and Nikko I finally felt like there's still like people like me in this world and constantly watch you all thanks to all of you.. I don't have a lot to keep my drive but you all help
HLC I feel ya 😂 I was in Delta 1/46 at Knox for basic and we were in red phase until our last week of basic because guys kept getting caught selling pain pills, doing pills, dipping/smoking etc.. our senior DS Evans said we were by FAR the worst platoon he ever had. And he was all calm and serious when he said it, like out of concern not anger. 😂
Happy New Year to all at Unsubscribe and thank you for the info and laughs! 😂 😮 Y'all need to get Danica Patrick on sometime! 😊 Much love from Oklahoma! ❤
I remember watching captain Philips in theater. After the hole sequence were the sniper lined up. The whole theater made a shocked noise. I was sitting there what do you think was going to happen.
Another attempt to get my oldest nephew on... First enlistment, was in Bosnia for his first tour. Then was a local (Monroe county Michigan) bailiff in the Juvenile Court before he got married and reenlisted right away from his wedding. That tour, the easiest thing in the Navy. Ship's historian on the USS Constitution in Boston harbor (there's a mannequin there in period dress, which looks like him at his age then. ) Then, back to the Army, originally supposed to stay in Germany, and got sent to Afghanistan. Where he got his purple heart. Became a sergeant, but ended up in Colorado after the Army with a military contractor. His reasoning? "I was in the same uniforms, using the same weapons, similar work. With overtime. "😁 He finally got out of that, back near much to his family (they live in Northern Monroe county, Michigan and he and his wife and kids (he adopted her most of the kids from her family. Ultimately I think 10, total. He has been, if I remember correctly, got several medals (either 2 purple hearts and the Silver Star, or the other way. Had a convoy hit an IED, after he'd get a sergeant...) I think he's kinda like a cross between Eli and the Fat Electrician. Got good stories, I'm sure, and big on military history. Was the ship's historian on the USS Constitution. And he's seen combat in several theaters... He's in Clinton, Michigan now. Less than an hour away from his mom's home. Name is Nathaniel (Nathan or Nate) Brown. His initial reasoning? "I want to fight American enemies." And his son is currently in the US Marines.
01:33:41 I went to Nike Intermediate School in Kansas, named that way because it was the site of a Nike Hercules control center! We always joked as kids that it was still in operation and the missile silo was under the gym floor.
Lol, can yah blame the guy? It's rare to get to shoot the shit and talk some shop with guys from before your time. A lot that are out don't like to talk about anything, so it's nice to get to learn from the guys before you, especially the cool toys your group never got a chance to learn about let alone use.
HLC's reference to Arkansas nuclear mishap happened at a Titan missile site near Damascus in 1980. There are books and documentaries about it. PBS American Experience episode Command and Control is based on Eric Schlosser's book. Interviews with people who were there.

Go, Navy, and Shout Out to the Farmkids ! 🍻 Also, our editors are awesome, and we love you, Trout.. 😅 I was just raised on Rainbow Trout... so... yep.. I have to respect a man named Trout !
Man you guys need a bigger table. Like every 3 months just add an extra chair because I want HLC as a more regular guest Also, I can’t remember their name but I saw a video about Helene relief, and they were talking about how they got involved with some veterans who were running a very large relief effort and they were taken aback by the amount of recon info they were getting. If you got one of those vets on, that would be a cool story.
The boys need to talk to more of old guys I joined the USAF in Oct 1991, became a Security Policeman (was too tall to be aircrew), went to Germany, first deployment Mogadishu, Somalia Jan 93. Retired Nov 2011. Have to make sure my stories don’t violate OPSEC, COMSEC or statute of limitations….
My rules of engagement revolved around protecting air operations. My rules were 1) if an armed Somali is on the airfield, neutralize the threat. 2) if a technical vehicle can affect air operations on base or off, neutralize the threat. 3) Engage muzzle flashes as needed. Or follow the use of force model at the time that consisted of opportunity, intent, capability.
54:51 this is why the military should SERIOUSLY genuinely evaluate bulpup rifles for some applications. They’re already going to retrain on a new platform. They may as well train with a bulpup for urban and vehicle applications. At least the SEALS have the need for it.
I met Terry when I was in 8th grade since he's a friend of my science teacher's son. He told us about this story and his involvement during his visit. That was damn near 7 or 8 years ago.

I grew up and worked on farms all through high school, now I work road construction all in Michigan
41:52 the SMAW supposedly had a thermobaric warhead developed for it.
It did. It was awesome.
SMAW-NE
HLC I feel ya 😂 I was in Delta 1/46 at Knox for basic and we were in red phase until our last week of basic because guys kept getting caught selling pain pills, doing pills, dipping/smoking etc.. our senior DS Evans said we were by FAR the worst platoon he ever had.
And he was all calm and serious when he said it, like out of concern not anger. 😂
I can't remember the last time I saw an episode without Cody.
Definitely back in the Baddie days, that’s the last time I can remember
Y’all get such interesting guests that really are outstanding communicators.
I’m so waiting for the Kevin episode. With all the weather coming in to the Midwest this would be a great week to drop two videos
Happy New Year to all at Unsubscribe and thank you for the info and laughs! 😂 😮 Y'all need to get Danica Patrick on sometime! 😊 Much love from Oklahoma! ❤
I remember watching captain Philips in theater. After the hole sequence were the sniper lined up. The whole theater made a shocked noise. I was sitting there what do you think was going to happen.
Great episode. I hear you about the sadness of lossing friends. I hope everythung works out for Terry and his friends and family.
Another attempt to get my oldest nephew on...
First enlistment, was in Bosnia for his first tour. Then was a local (Monroe county Michigan) bailiff in the Juvenile Court before he got married and reenlisted right away from his wedding. That tour, the easiest thing in the Navy. Ship's historian on the USS Constitution in Boston harbor (there's a mannequin there in period dress, which looks like him at his age then. ) Then, back to the Army, originally supposed to stay in Germany, and got sent to Afghanistan. Where he got his purple heart. Became a sergeant, but ended up in Colorado after the Army with a military contractor.
His reasoning? "I was in the same uniforms, using the same weapons, similar work. With overtime. "😁
He finally got out of that, back near much to his family (they live in Northern Monroe county, Michigan and he and his wife and kids (he adopted her most of the kids from her family. Ultimately I think 10, total.
He has been, if I remember correctly, got several medals (either 2 purple hearts and the Silver Star, or the other way. Had a convoy hit an IED, after he'd get a sergeant...)
I think he's kinda like a cross between Eli and the Fat Electrician.
Got good stories, I'm sure, and big on military history. Was the ship's historian on the USS Constitution. And he's seen combat in several theaters... He's in Clinton, Michigan now. Less than an hour away from his mom's home. Name is Nathaniel (Nathan or Nate) Brown.
His initial reasoning? "I want to fight American enemies."
And his son is currently in the US Marines.
01:33:41 I went to Nike Intermediate School in Kansas, named that way because it was the site of a Nike Hercules control center! We always joked as kids that it was still in operation and the missile silo was under the gym floor.
Man, the Navy SEAL failure isn't here for this one to hear how awesome it would have been if he didn't go home to play Skyrim
“Oh cool, you saved Jessica Lynch?” “Anyway, have you heard of bat bombs”
Ethan is correct about the tv static with tangerines lol.
Yet another awesome episode, always look forward to your guys uploads.
47:00 Nick just probing for RESEARCH for his channel
Lol, can yah blame the guy? It's rare to get to shoot the shit and talk some shop with guys from before your time. A lot that are out don't like to talk about anything, so it's nice to get to learn from the guys before you, especially the cool toys your group never got a chance to learn about let alone use.
This was an awesome episode gentleman. I love learning new stuff & hearing the awesome stories.
Annnnnnnnd errands day just got a whole lot better!!!
“Honey, I’m doing errands for the next two hours!!!”
Sunsub: Making better husbands since 2021.
I love how Terry describes where he grew up. Every one I know that grew up around northern Indiana says where it is in relation to South Bend.
First of the year and it’s looking like we are starting strong!
HLC's reference to Arkansas nuclear mishap happened at a Titan missile site near Damascus in 1980. There are books and documentaries about it. PBS American Experience episode Command and Control is based on Eric Schlosser's book. Interviews with people who were there.
I have no idea why I am watching on RUclips instead of pepperbox. But god I love this fucking podcast
This was one of the most engaging and enjoyable podcasts in the last year, and that's saying a lot given some of the absolute bangers last year
unsub upload its a good day
I LOVE Ender's game and Ender's shadow! It is so underrated and hearing you guys talk about it was fantastic!!!

Live show was fantastic but still waiting on my "Touch grass, eat ass" - Shinzo Abe (probably) shirt!!!!
Also, i remember reading about that thermobaric AT4 when they developed it.
We had a 52 year old go through OSUT in 2022 they will do it
This was actually one of the best episodes, I love these episodes. Thank the Lorde for Eli, Nick, Terry, Mr. Long and his awesome trash bandit t-shirt. Go, Navy, and Shout Out to the Farmkids ! 🍻
Also, our editors are awesome, and we love you, Trout..
😅 I was just raised on Rainbow Trout... so... yep.. I have to respect a man named Trout !
Man you guys need a bigger table. Like every 3 months just add an extra chair because I want HLC as a more regular guest
Also, I can’t remember their name but I saw a video about Helene relief, and they were talking about how they got involved with some veterans who were running a very large relief effort and they were taken aback by the amount of recon info they were getting. If you got one of those vets on, that would be a cool story.
The Guam capsizing guy was Hank Johnson, a Dem Rep out of Georgia.
The boys need to talk to more of old guys I joined the USAF in Oct 1991, became a Security Policeman (was too tall to be aircrew), went to Germany, first deployment Mogadishu, Somalia Jan 93. Retired Nov 2011. Have to make sure my stories don’t violate OPSEC, COMSEC or statute of limitations….
My rules of engagement revolved around protecting air operations.
My rules were 1) if an armed Somali is on the airfield, neutralize the threat. 2) if a technical vehicle can affect air operations on base or off, neutralize the threat. 3) Engage muzzle flashes as needed. Or follow the use of force model at the time that consisted of opportunity, intent, capability.
54:51 this is why the military should SERIOUSLY genuinely evaluate bulpup rifles for some applications. They’re already going to retrain on a new platform. They may as well train with a bulpup for urban and vehicle applications. At least the SEALS have the need for it.
1:23:14 totaled my car to this part🥰 drive safe guys
This one is hitting all the tisms, history, special forces, ballistics, missiles, great episode.
Oh no, our favourite ATF director and war hero is missing.
He’s being Pinned by Patton with his 3rd MOH 🫡🫡

I have never been this early. If you’re seeing this, you have a nice ass and an okay face
Describes my life in one sentence 😂
23:44 someday I hope to find somebody that looks at me the way Eli looks at Uncle Kevin 🤣
I met Terry when I was in 8th grade since he's a friend of my science teacher's son. He told us about this story and his involvement during his visit. That was damn near 7 or 8 years ago.
