The ONLY? I’m sure Admiral Raven tightens him up a lot (whether people see it or not) but he’s probably not the only person that motivates Jocko to be better.
“How do I become Admiral?” You can hear laugh in the background. The Admiral laughs then SEEMLESSLY goes into a great, relevant story. GREAT PODCAST. It has a LIFETIME of Leadership lessons. Thank You Jocko and Admiral McRaven.
I've learned a lot from these two gentlemen. They are true leaders of humanity. "Build the best damn frog float you can" Admiral McRaven The King is the first to pick up the heaviest burden, and the last to lay it down. That is Christ, Long live the King. Wise words
No. You don't need to be in the Navy to be an admiral. Admiral Rachel L. Levine serves as the 17th Assistant Secretary for Health for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS),
@obamapox8185 He fought like the BEAST he is for our country..wtf do you besides sit behind a keyboard in whatever public library the public bus dropped you off at. Youll pass away unknown and completely forgotten. These 2 Men, however, will go down in history as 2 of the Best Warriors in The United States Navy Seal Teams. Now take a seat SIS 💅 🥱
This was a classic. So chock full of timeless wisdom applicable to anyone doing anything. I forwarded this to my mid 20’s kids beginning their careers. How fortunate are young people now who have access to information that in a few hours can change the trajectory of their lives?
As an old Soldier and still serving, one of the best things the Admiral said was, “you have to bring it everyday.” Train hard, show the troopers you are there in the suck with them and push yourself. Both Jocko and the Admiral are examples of leadership that I reference often.
As a skydiver, I found the admiral's skydiving accident story (episode 290) amazing and terrifying. Visualizing it gave me the chills. That's a hard and humble man. His life story embodies the word Epic!
I never comment on RUclips vids but Jocko pulling up Echo Charles at the end had me cracking up. Fascinating guest, I could listen to Admiral Bill McRaven talk all day. Still one of the best 2/3 hours of my week, cheers Jocko (& EC).
What an absolute privilege it is to be able to watch and listen to these two incredible men talk and reminisce about time in the teams and the lessons they learned along the way.
I have listened to this podcast over and over for the past week. What a plethora of information that has been shared upon us. Thank you, Admiral, and thank you, Jocko, for this fantastic podcast.
Mcraven is one of the greatest military leaders of all time. It's awesome that we have podcasts that can interview these men and re-live history in real time.
What a pair!! Damn!!! It’s always awesome to listen these guys talk; it makes me proud of being American and living in the same country as these heroes!! Can you imagine Admiral McRaven as President?!! He would kill it!!
This is one of the best podcasts I have ever listened to. There was so much wisdom in it. Thank you to all involved for sharing your knowledge and putting the video together!
What leadership looks and sounds like. Not one mention of popularity, ratings, no claiming "I'm the best", "They cheated", etc. This is a man of character and integrity.
I realize this is wayyy late (I've been catching up, podcast by podcast, since late 2016), but just in case anyone curious about history reads this: The Admiral states that not even the Roman legions relied on professional troops that would serve for decades. He's only right as far as the first century BC. After that, as Rome violently transitioned from an overstretched Republic to an official Empire (plenty of warning for us there, btw), it revolutionized its military. The Legions were transformed into a permanent professional force that drew its infantry from the poor classes and had a minimum 25 year term of service. Roman soldiers were basically deployed until they died or earned that 25 year retirement. This was the Army that anchored civilization for the next 4 centuries and beyond. Other than that, great podcast by two incredibly high-achieving leaders! Thank you, Jocko and Admiral McRaven!
Listening to this interview is life changing. The whole notion of the "Long Green Table"...just something to really think about. Proud to have been in the Navy because of men like these guys.
This made me think of one of the best examples of leadership I ever saw while in the Army. I was assigned patient security detail on a cas-e-vac. I was initially told by my command I would make a round trip and be back at my base that night. Of course that's not what happened and I was dropped off at Ballad at 0300 hours. After a few hours sleep and not being a hundred percent sure where I was I discovered I would be there several days. I headed to the PX to pickup a set of pts and came across a major. I greeted him with good morning sir but no salute because we did not salute on my base and I had not been briefed on customs and courtesy's there. The major began to chew me alive. A Sergeant first class stepped in and vouged that I had just landed on the base and received no briefing. I had not met that NCO but he stuck up for me. Left a great impression.
I fondly remember Armed Forces Day at the Presidio in the mid 60's. I was 5 years old and was thrown off a jump tower with a zip line! Those were the days. Not to mention the unlimited soda!!!
CSM Dotson told me during a promotion board, “all you have to do to become a good leader is to pick the hard-right over the easy wrong. Do you leave the trash randomly blowing by you, or do you pick it up, and put it in the trash?”
I consider myself a softy, especially, today, but this interview, and the concepts contained within, choked me up with humility and pride. Thank you, Jocko, Echo, Bill and everyone involved, for this presentation. Much love. 👌🏽🤙🏽
Dear Jocko, if you see this I have a request, could you possibly have origin USA make athletic shorts and running shorts made of wool or some other natural material? I don’t like to wear synthetic materials but with running shorts there is close to zero on the market that aren’t made of synthetic material. Maybe I am the only person who wants running shorts made from natural materials, but who knows? From-A hopeful Customer

Im a big fan of the Admiral. His books are excellent. Sea stories is my fav. Wisdom of the Bullfrog is also a excellent read. Great author and he lived what he wrote. Just amazing.
The best part here is that the most replayed part of the podcast is Echo's question. I bet everyone went back to check if Jocko's comment on Admiral's expression happened or not.
When he said that as a leader you need to work hard every day and earn the respect every day and when you stop doing that you are not the right leader anymore its so true. Thanks for all these valuable life lessons. And thanks both of you for your service and for everything you did for the world.
Absolutely legendary men. The impact you've all had on whole generations is outstanding and I hope you can impact many more in the future. Thank you for everything you've all done for men and war
I found Jocko through looking for McRaven and his speech. The commencement speech is also in Spanish. Me, too. Discovered interview 290. Now I attend Jocko school here on RUclips. 😁
My biggest issue in SOF and it’s every organization I’ve met hundreds of guys that had the same issues. The prescription drugs and alcohol and 20yrs of war TBI/PTSD. Have to be taken into account. Our guys have been physically and mentally abused for 20yrs. the leadership allowed z-drugs like ambien and stimulants like Nuvigel/adderall to be dispensed like crazy. Which then alters chemicals in the brain that leads to anxiety/depression. Then they wonder why guys ended up with “Behavioral problems” problems. Btw we learned this lesson once in Vietnam. Alcohol weakens the lining of the brain so your a lot more susceptible to TBI etc. --- but before people go judging especially older officers who were at the 0-6 level on 9/11. They don’t have any idea what it’s like being at war 20yrs being in the 0-1 - 0-4 ranks or E1-E7/8. You gotta look from the context our guys had poor leadership and guidance allowing the alcohol and prescription drug use which then led to serious issues. I can’t even count how many operators I know that were addicted to Opioids, benzodiazepines, z-drugs, & stimulants. All which the commands allowed. Understand the avg door kicker is between 19-26 or so. Just think back to when you were between that age range and having a command make the prescription drug use acceptable. Now we have record veteran suicide stats which goes to show. The issues are much deeper than a random guy just wanting to do wrong for the fun of it. People need to take responsibility for what they did to contribute to the destructive culture. Instead of blaming the young guy that had ambien shoved down his throat at 19yrs old. I mean 19! At 19 you don’t know anything.
1 of the best podcasts you’ve had in awhile.The Bullfrog has Great Wisdom & passed down some great knowledge during the podcast.Every podcast I listen to when I’m driving down the interstate in my semi 🛣️ I learn something about life.That makes me reflect on my life & some of the really dumb things I have done & the good things Ive done & accomplished.Semper-Fi 89’-93’.

'Mounting the Guard' is more than 'posting' them... It starts with an Inspection, passing 'The Word' and making assignments... then they are 'posted'... I could be mistaken... but this is how it was of me/us...
@@70stunes71 Amen 😁 Yes exactly, and that 'culture' of wanting to contribute, everyone shouldering "their" part for the overall good, and a sense of community seems a more sustainable approach for a stronger healthier community to thrive. Welp, but what do I know, I can't help but want the best-deserved & most selfless leaders over personal $$$ material madness they've taken to calling "success" w/a straight-ish contenence.
Jocko. You are the epitome of what man should be. Thank you. And thank you again for starting an all American company where all things are made in America. That's what we desperately need. We need to become self sufficient as possible. There's no other way. Please keep going & expand & teach the importance of all American made shit. You're a badass
I've been listening to and enjoying Jocko since beginning of the year. To some extent the conversations reinforce certain impressions I have of myself... "I certainly do that good thing", "I definitely don't do that bad thing", but doesn't this episode open with the Unilateral Flanking Move 0:55. Hmmm, I've done that, it's bad? Oh boy, right out of the gate I better pay attention! Luckily podcast moves on to some more comfortable territory - Long Green Table, Death Before Dishonor, Respect, Leadership/Followership - and I'm back to feeling pretty good about myself when we get to the Paper Towel Dilemma 2:00:36. Damn, I have a paper towel dilemma, and I have completely mismanaged it! Moved right into the value of Inspection 02:03:48 - it's possible I uttered the phase "we're all professionals here." last month - that landed too close to home. Lots of respect to Admiral McRaven and Jocko. One concern is all contrarians listening to this will think they're Billy Mitchell. All-in-all, this one is worth listening to beginning to end - the Jocko/Echo dialog at the end is priceless. Tell your friends and get the book!
Haha! I did the same thing in SMUT! Diving Rambo strafe. Instructors just shook their head. I was a Senior Chief…so no reprimands. But, we didn’t win either…they called TTO …I just put dye on a couple instructors in my super flank! Sometimes you are just frucked. I looked at the scenario afterwards, we were meant to funnel into a kill zone. It was all meant to be a loss. Lose on your own terms. But own it.
Clearly one of the top 3 guests on any radio or podcast. Thank you Admiral.
POS. Corporate cash machine. Not one single word disparaging Potato Joe performance
I think the Admiral is the only guy on the planet that tightens Jocko up, even if only just a bit.
The ONLY? I’m sure Admiral Raven tightens him up a lot (whether people see it or not) but he’s probably not the only person that motivates Jocko to be better.
“How do I become Admiral?” You can hear laugh in the background. The Admiral laughs then SEEMLESSLY goes into a great, relevant story. GREAT PODCAST. It has a LIFETIME of Leadership lessons. Thank You Jocko and Admiral McRaven.
Echo Charles will never get off the hook for the "Admiral" question. Jocko revisits it every podcast now.
Lol i laugh every time!

I've learned a lot from these two gentlemen. They are true leaders of humanity.
"Build the best damn frog float you can" Admiral McRaven
The King is the first to pick up the heaviest burden, and the last to lay it down.
That is Christ, Long live the King.
Wise words
Mcraven understands there are no dumb questions, Echo : do I have to be in the navy to become a Admiral?? He answers the question without blinking.
That kinda made me feel like echo is a little slow , to be on this show this long and ask that question to this man? Lol what a blunder
@@cb-jg5cp echo was testing the admiral to see if he would have the humility to subordinate his ego and answer his stupid question 😂
No. You don't need to be in the Navy to be an admiral.

Awesome to see the Admiral back. I could listen to a dozen of these episodes with him.
Echo Charles didn’t say a word for hours. When he did ask a question it startled me. I forgot he was there. That makes him terrifying.
The true grey man
Going back to this now. Never got to finish it. Worthwhile convo right here
This podcast came on at a time when I needed a leadership checkup. Good stuff. Thanks for the motivation!😊🎉
One of the best practical podcasts I've listened to.
Hyped for McRaven being back, this'll be a great one for sure

Whether a leader or not, working hard and appreciating every day for the opportunity to do so, is just as important. Keep on truckin'.
