Cleared Hot Episode 171 - Nic McKinley
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2024
- As an Operative who served as a Country Chief for a Special Unit within the CIA, Nic witnessed not only the epidemic of child trafficking within illicit markets but also the unrealized opportunity to apply his understanding and training to influence this global crisis. When Nic began to work with experts to better understand the problem in the United States he found it impossible to turn a blind eye. As a result, DeliverFund was officially established as a 501c3 in October 2014 as a counter-human trafficking organization, focused on ending sex slavery in the United States.
Nic spent 11 years in US Special Operations as an Air Force Pararescueman prior to being recruited to the Central Intelligence Agency. Due to his highly specialized training and experience in both special and intelligence operations, Nic has a firm understanding of these illicit, illegal markets and has the highest levels of training to effectively combat them.

Powerful podcast. Have an equally-powerful week my friends. Crush your goals and stuff. We finally got pinned last week. Now we need a new reason to throw phallic objects at Andy. If you've got any ideas shoot em this way.
You sir make Mondays suck less
Morning buddy. High five.
@@mikedudley9975 Five High!
@Ali Welcome as always!
@@drunknnirish Likewise!
Andy stumpf is really crushing it with the guests!!
Awesome cast, Andy. If possible, Pat McNamara would be a fantastic guest. Would love to hear you too hit it off.
Pat Mac is a legend! Andy and Pat would be awesome on one together.
Second that!
Yeah for sure. Andy and pat would blend super well
Love Pat Mac, but personally, if he’s going to have another CAG guy on the podcast, I would vote for John McPhee. He’s been very open about his contempt for SEALs due to what he deems as a culture of recklessness, and I would love to see him and Andy hash out those issues.
@@michaelbrady4208 Pat was cool, and shared a lot on Jocko. Andy and Pat being straight forward guys and laidback would make for a good talk. Plus, Andy's ability to make people feel relaxed and laugh would be great with Pat.
I love you guys.
From, Texas.
I’m a 7-8th generation Texan. (We lost count)
Where I grew up used to be a pretty rural area outside of the Austin suburbs. It was mostly cattle ranches, with only a few county roads.
Now, it is a super-suburb. I can barely recognize the place. I’m only 26.
Almost every creek with fish, crawfish, & little shrimpy things that I played & explored in when I was a kid is long gone. Dried up, filled in, & turned into drainage runoff areas.
Every single wooded trail that I scruffled around growing up is now dug up, & replaced with large bodies of either concrete, or asphalt.
95% + or our wildlife, which used to be so abundant that it was actually a bit of a problem, is now long dead & gone.
They cut down almost all of the trees…
Don’t let any of that happen to Montana.
This is a guy that should go on JRE it's an important issue that is very important and ignored, JRE has a huge platform that this message should be broadcasted on.
Could NOT agree any more!
And as previous episodes have touched on, JR is equally as passionate about keeping children safe. I can’t imagine him not helping and making connections or financially contribute as needed.
Andy’s reach has been fantastic also. He knows so many different people who know different people, who know different people. I pray that this episode reaches as many people as humanly possible.
this, so much this.
Unbelievable podcast. So hard to listen to things like this but so thankful for guys like Nic and others that are actively combating against this horrendous community of evil. Thank you Andy for having such incredible guests each week and allowing these great men and women to share their efforts and hopefully get even more support.
After roughly 20 years of working child exploitation crimes prior to retiring, in my experience, most law enforcement agencies are sadly and woefully untrained, underfunded, and unprepared to handle these types of crimes. Thank you Nick for stepping up.
Thankfully finally there is federal funding and training along with a small task force for trafficking in the States.
@@mongo9034 lknlj99jhu
Awesome dude, we need more people like him.
Nic is doing great things. When I was a LEO, we had just implemented Human Trafficking training. The impact of what trafficking does to young people is disturbing. I had a Call For Service at a safe house for trafficked children. When I spoke to the person running the place a female victim came to the door to see what was happening. She saw my uniform and practically shrank away: Someone had conditioned her to fear law enforcement.
By far, the best podcast I’ve heard from Cleared Hot, so far. Disappointed you didn’t have more views or likes on this one.
Nic was a fantastic guest with a great story. Thank you for bringing on such a competent guest to discuss the disease that is human trafficking. This was definitely worth the 2.5hrs of my day today. 👍 Keep up the good content.
Agree-We need to know more to do more!
Andy call Joe we need to get this out to a few more million. I know I'm doing nothing in it so the word we is completely irrelevant. but I feel like Joe and have a great time picking this guy's brain excellent podcast in general yeah I'm going to donate a bit. Might slap one of their stickers on my bumper. Major problem that needs to be resolved.
This was a little tough to read, but once I understood wtf you saying... I agree. The more ears the better. Do your part to turn ears on to things you believe in.
@@ironclad0331 so did he leave out a bunch of punctuation? Only thing I can come up with to make it make sense.
Cleared Hot Gang rise up
I so badly want to be part of this man’s team
I do too, Adam
Me too. So bummed I didn't go into the military now I'm older, no training. But I wanna rip that freaking apart
Better and better Andy! Thanks for putting in the time brother!👊🏼
"BUZZKILL" is the most important/impactful guest so far. His kindness represents how we feel about the topic yet has the beautiful combo of brilliant and badass that can actually make a differenceThank you for continually interviewing people who are cut from the same cloth as you, keep it up Andy.
I agree, Joe Rogan needs to have Nic on!!!!
Rogan sold out. Andy is the real Rogan.
D’Anthony Hollaway
Great episode. Thanks for bringing this problem to light!
Once again excellent podcast and a real eye opener. I will be sharing urging people to watch the whole thing and will be having a conversation with my kids so they know how to protect themselves by being aware. Thank you Nic McKinley for all that you are doing, you are a true hero and thank you Andy for providing a forum for this information to be heard.
Amazing podcast. Thanks for facilitating this Andy and bringing Nic in. Makes my heart happy to hear the work he is doing
This dude makes a huge point.
All these missing kids from various ages but no new coverage of them.
Waited all weekend for this
This was amazing information, thanks for your efforts Andy and Nic, this topic needs a national platform!
God bless Nic. Dude is a true hero!
Great podcast as always Andy👍🏻
Stellar episode. Thank you both for coming together and putting this episode out there. Child trafficking is a big part of my heart's biggest fight in this world. So grateful for people like this stepping up to pick up the slack. (I'd love to see Tim Ballard, of O.U.R. on here at some point- it'd be a nice way to cover the out of country part of this fight as well.)
Pat Mac and Andy are my two favorite Spec Ops dudes. Think those two along with Mike Glover are on my A Team. Such humble yet serious badasses who have kicked major ass for America. Much respect for their heroism and humbleness.
Awesome podcast Andy. I'd just like to say, thank god for people like yourselves.
Thank you gentlemen.
Cheers. 👍🇦🇺
Andy, Tim Ballard would be another great guest to continue this conversation and spread awareness of human trafficking. He's a former Special Agent at DHS and is the founder and CEO of Operation Underground Railroad.
I've watched this twice. Thank you Andy & Thank you Nic. You guys are doing good stuff.
Certainly an eye opener. Great educational episode. Unfortunately, a very disturbing topic. Great guest and great host!
2nd or 3rd time listening. Came back after Kara, the kicker of asses.
May God bless the organization of DeliverFund, and all those involved.
The most powerful podcast I've ever seen or heard. This needs to get to Joe's podcast ASAP
Brilliant. Nic is an awesome individual with a huge heart. Doing immense good.
When I did AF basic in late 1988 PJ was offered to everyone who wanted to volunteer for it within the first week of basic.
No offense to anyone who lives there but Billings Montana is one of the biggest shit holes I’ve ever been to. I swear everyone was on meth. It was just a very bizarre atmosphere. Was gonna stay the night but had a feeling my car would be on cinderblocks when I woke up in the morning.
Very tough and hard topic !! I believe Craig Sawyer has an organization that works on this topic !! Great Stuff !! Stay Strong and Be Safe !!!!
100
One of your best interviews to date! Wish you would put your guest social media and/or their companies sites in the description. Nic is a great dude! Ok ok Andy is ok also! Haha, love your stuff!
Andy, best podcast yet.Nic is an amazing soul.
I knew of this being an issue in less developed countries but it is mindblowing. This model needs to be taught and replicated in other countries too.
Going to donate after hearing this. Thanks Andy
Please get Tony Eafrati on here. Would be a hilarious episode.
I could listen to BTF Tony all day long.
Indeed
Dauba, get to tha choppa
Thank you Nic for the amazing job you do !
This was the best podcast I have listened to. Great job Andy! I will be supporting his mission
It absolutely curdled my blood when hearing about the trafficker truck driver. I'm a truck driver, but I'm 100% not ok with all these scumbags in trucking. They're disgusting! If I didn't have wanderlust, and earn six figures from trucking I'd get out. But it is fun to smoke check these tards once in a while. It's on them. They always start it. Great show Andy!
Great message. Great work! I thoroughly enjoyed the pod. Thanks Andy!
Man that crushing evil shirt looked overzealous and a little douchey at first, totally at odds with Nic's personality; then I heard about his day job and everything makes sense again. Truly fitting tag-line!
This man does good work. I had to listen to him 2xs to get a better idea what he does.
Love it!!! Another good one. Ok, had your PJ's now how about an even lesser known Medic. Get a SARC or SOIDC!
C.O.C.K. OMG i cried form laughing
That’s tough work seeing that everyday. Good man.
Nic should run DHS Dept. in our country
One of the best podcasts yet. Thank you and great job!
There’s tone of law enforcement resources...for years...regarding HT. Not sure what this guy is talking about. International and national symposiums and conferences going back a long time.
Seems like an excellent human being, and he’s no doubt doing awesome work. But he’s very cavalier in “no one is investigating HT, there are no resources”
Its awesome how many of our former élite Operators are choosing to get into the fight against human sex trafficking of kids. I just heard another ex CIA Ground Branch guy on a podcast Bazzel "Baz" talk about his private Operation in rescuing kids. Delta Force member " Geo Hand" is another one putting his skills and experience into the fight. I cant believe we dont have more Task Forces focused on this problem/mission specifically.
Great!! Important topic and podcast. More like this Andy. Thank you!!
Holy shit balls.... this was an incredible episode!
I’m surprised about the lack of resources. The UN has several programs on human trafficking (UNICEF and UN WOMEN come to mind, the World Migration Organization) and Europol has an entire division, I’d be surprised if Interpol didn’t.
I'm going to assume everyone who dislikes this video is either a human trafficker...or gets a lot of "massages"
Love the pretention free format and the facial expression when you talk about what you'd like to see happen to human traffickers!
Marine infantry here. Live in NM. You need help with the human trafficking problem, I’m here brother. HMU. I’d love to get involved and continue to serve the people of my country.
There was over 420,000 missing children in the United States last year
@@sydt7104 less than 400 a year? Uhhh negative.
globalmissingkids.org/awareness/missing-children-statistics/
@@sydt7104 ok? And? That’s the case with most statistics. They give you a rough estimate. Obviously it’s not the exact number because the ppl are missing and in a lot of cases they don’t know that they’re missing but they wouldn’t report the number of missing children to be in the neighborhood of 420,000-460,000 when in reality it’s 400.
Hey man this was very hard hitting and just the motivation me and I'm sure a tonne more people needed to fight the good fight, thanks Andy.
Same thing Mike Rutland said on Patrick Bet David’s podcast.
Why are there so many missing kids but the government doesn’t do jack shit.
How do you know all of this and not do something?.... follow the lack of funding and you're likely to find the high level involved I would imagine. That subject makes me wanna come put together that race car.
I lmao🤣🤣 when andy said
" i miss social cues, but i can tell you how to murder every one in the room"
Sarcasm is his primary weapon system 😆🤣
Great episode, sir. If you ever have him back, I'd love to hear how he and his teams cope with the environment they're in. You hear stories about how hard it is on the people who deal with this stuff. Nic is an amazing guy and I'm glad he's fighting this fight. Sounds like, based on some of his comments, he just might be a Christian as well. ;-)
I hope not. There's no room for superstition in that very serious and important business.
Thank you Andy for giving this guy a platform. He needs all the platforms! I hope you hooked him up with Joe and Jocko.
Dude is an actual legit keyboard commando... fucking awesome.
Nic and his colleges are pure heroes! Great podcast, good work Andy!
Andy, I’ve been here since the start. One of the top two podcasts you’ve produced. Doing God’s Work
This guys awesome, wish I could work for him.
to answer Nic McKinley's question about SOF guys combating trafficking... CRAIG SAWMAN SAWYER... former marine / SEAL / DEVGRU guy running V4CR (vets for child rescue)
This guy's doing some amazing things
Nic is fucking awesome, what a great guy with an amazing mission
Was listening to Mike Drop’s episode with Jeremy Maghugh just a few days ago and thought to myself this could be a cool guest for cleared hot. Lo and behold a few days later the other founder is on cleared hot!
Such a great podcast! Nic your amazing! Thank you for what you are doing!!!
That was a hard one to listen to. I was hoping the apprehension/conviction of consumers would be addressed, maybe next time.
If you move to a new state(or country) you want to(and should) assimilate into that population and/or culture. Not bring along the baggage you are trying to get away from.
If you say so…
Ask Mr Mickinley about trafficking in regards to our own US Govt. Are they involved
What baffles me is that the US is having existential crisis because of slavery happening 150 years ago and at the same time, ignoring the slavery that is happening right now.
How do we support this organization? Is there a similar organization in Canada? If so, how do I support them? Thank you.
That was really needed... thanks
Great Falls is better than Billings. I was raised in Montana and it was crazy how many people hate change in general including more people. I love sharing the beauty of Montana with my friends, enticing them to move here. I returned after I retired from the Army. ❤️ 🏔
I have a 1978 jeep cj-7, still have the original straight 6. Its being rebuilt. We stuck a Chevy 350 in it until my straight 6 is done, bad idea. Lol
I use to have a '78 CJ5, recently started looking for another one and I'm pretty shocked at the prices.
@@alabama_dawg7396 Me too. I've wanted one since high school, in the mid nineties, and the prices are up there now. Don't even look at FJ-40 prices. They were expensive back then, and now…
I grew up in a hospital so I was deathly afraid of hospitals and needles. I cannot imagine trying to be a PJ or even being a live dummy for their training. Much Respect!
How do you grow up in a hospital. Just asking
STOP TALKING ABOUT MONTANA.
I can relate being a native Texan dealing with the mass exodus of California and other states. Being a “secret”, maybe not. But honestly Montana hasn’t been overrun yet....let’s see what this convo looks like in 5 years....hopefully no different but I highly doubt it. It’s not the people, it’s the mindset they bring and that they are so unwilling to assimilate.
@Eric Sisler That is a big assumption and over generalization.
Great episode!
Wow man heavy episode. Fuck I wish I could do something about this problem too. But where should I begin ?
@26:00 My Dad was a transplant to MT from DC back in the 70’s; he would always tell me about the golden trout in Blue Lake. What a crazy small world. His story about them: Japanese men who worked in the mine brought them from Japan.
Great work Andy!
Get Mike Ritland on. He is electric.
Even considering a good snow year, MT doesn’t have enough water to keep up with the growth. P
Really good chemistry between andy and nic, they would make a good duo for a buddy cop movie lol.
This is epic. The real lightning strikes at 1:09:00 explaining what's really going on with sex trafficking, and it is sickening.
I have played this for my whole family and shared with friends. God bless Nic and team -- shooters with computers!
Good interview Andy you finally let your guess do more talking
Thank you for the information will pass to a police Lt.
Wild podcast. This dude opened my eyes to all kinds of craziness.
"my sources on sex trafficking are to professors at Harvard"
andy: "how do they get their info on it?"
"they study slavery"
me: XD
Extraordinary guy.
Extraordinary cause.
I’d love to join in that fight with a kinetic role.
Nic is an amazing guy!
Andy, been listening to your podcast for a while and love it! But this question has been eating at me and I can't find the answer: is there a story behind the "cleared hot" CAS call intro?
