Isaac Rodriguez III, the youngest of four SEALs killed at Patilla Airport, died while rescuing a fellow SEAL who was seriously wounded. My nieces graduated from the same high school as Don McFaul, another SEAL killed at Patilla while rushing to save a teammate. I thought of these two courageous men who I first read about in the 90's when Mr. Gonzales mentioned he wanted to strengthen his weaknesses for the guys to his left and right. It shatters my freaking heart these brave American men gave their lives so others may live. Isaac's mother met the SEAL, who became a paraplegic. he saved prior to her passing as she wanted to meet the man who was with her son last. May we never forget the sacrifices of these operators both living and deceased. Thank You Mr. Gonzales and Mr. Carr for your service.
So pleased and fortunate Jack got Jeff on the pod, Jeff was and is one of the original firearms trainers from when courses weren’t that prevalent to civilians yet- not like today. AFAIC, Jeff IS the original of whom has followed in his wake. Great Interview Jack. Thanks guys. Pete
This was such a great episode. Jeff is a great guy. I have trained with him before and look forward to training with him again.
Shipmate, you are one of the few authors I can read with my raging ADHD. Your books keep me glued page to page. Bravo Zulu.
Jack,
The fight scenes in Only the Dead are beyond awesome. They are so vivid, I actually found myself laughing and marking the pages. To read again. One thing I found from reading your books which follows on into Only the Dead in spades. Whether intentional or not I find the almost impossible situations you put Recce in yet somehow he seems to overcome and prevail. I like when he’s down and out and he says…ok Reece, stay in the fight, overcome, forget about Katie for now..if you want to se her again, find a way to win.
What I have found and not alone, in many ways James Reece through you personifies the never quit attitude which many people seem to embrace when things get too tough. They give up and through your books, I believe you always reinforce that never quit attitude.
What I would love you to do Jack is choreograph some of those fight scenes. They are so wild, its almost hard to follow. Perhaps not you, but someone else using graphics to show those scenes in detail.
Respectfully Submitted
Dennis
Always a pleasure to hear this podcast such a wealth of knowledge is shared I always enjoy hearing these
Amazing stories, and really interesting to hear how much changed during Jeff's tenure
Just finished “Only the Dead”. Love the whole series. My 10 year old son is into all things military and special ops. Do you have any novel recommendations that are appropriate for that age?
A list would be super cool, maybe that could be a segment or video.
Harry Mazer was a SGT in WWII and was shot down in a bomber - earning him a purple heart. He wrote a series called "Boy at War" - my favorite being Hero's don't run (marines pacific theatre)
The Lieutenants (Brotherhood of War, #1) by W.E.B. Griffin Have him read ALL the books in this series. The Captains or the Majors covers the origins of The Green Beret. It is fiction and documentary at the same time. The books are VERY family friendly IMO. My dad and I both read all of them.
Damn US Calvary catalog! Now i have to get a Cold Steele San Mai Tanto!
Shot with Jeff in his gun fighting competitions at The Range in Austin, GREAT GUY! Good to see you again Jeff!
Really good presentation...thank you both.
Just finished the new book Only the Dead. Great job as always sir!
Great guy and great interview.
Great podcast sir.
Awesome show
Jeff is one of my favorite people in the industry. Great interview…. Jack should get that friend of Jeffs that was at the airfield. That would be an incredible interview, he is one of my favorite people on the planet and an absolute national asset. It would probably lead to a new series of books honestly.
Agreed, but, that Jr. Corpsman at the time (Paitilla) has moved on in life it looks- for the sake of his own well being and mental health, it’s probably better he doesn’t relive that part of his life.
@@highwired1921 I am talking about the Ranger who served throughout the GWOT and was even at Ground Zero working the rescue. The dudes story is unbelievable and long.
i like how Jeff is fidgeting with one of those Larue armadillo bottle openers
I listen to your excellent show and always have that voice in my hed which says that all of these guys are the type of people the army leadership doesnt really want these days
Those crossed war-hawks are real, but way out of my price range right now. They are on my BUCKET LIST, however.
Awesome podcast I've been watching Jeff from the IC Tricon days .
I was die hard Glock guy for 15 years . In 2020 I finally ditched Glock and went with Shadow Systems. In early 2021 I ditched Glock Pattern all together and went with P320 AXG , TXG and P365X MACRO TACOPS . I just recently picked up the TACOPs and I'm in love this blaster . IMO P365X MACRO TACOPS Blows G19 , G43X or G48 out of the water .

WV here too. Got a black Protech godfather on me.
I always wanted the Spanish Military knife from Brigade Quartermaster’s….😊
Gung Ho magazine is awesome. I have a pile of them.
Papua New Guinea is now according to US SEALS located in Central/South America?
2:25:10 is Gold
Excited to listen! Glad I listened to the authors note at the end of Only the Dead and found the podcast! Do you have a fan mail P.O. Box? I made something Id like to give you in celebration of the book 6 release?
I remember being a kid in like 1994 and saw the seals at the pungo hundred yard lanes. My first time seeing suppressed weapons and the beginning of a bad addiction to tacticool shit 😂
Wow 😮
I read a lot of Tom Clancy, while standing after steering watch.
This was a fantastic episode. Not going to lie, I was unfamiliar with Jeff Gonzales before this. Very impressed, however, and wondering how I could have missed the name until now! Especially since I see he's been on Mike Ritland's podcast too, along with about a million interesting instructional videos on here. :)
What you guys talked about regarding training and its shift towards new or beginner gun owners, etc., call me nerdy but I feel similarly about privacy and technology, albeit slower with less progress (to use a real example: social media data integrity and ownership, relevant on a platform like this-and Reddit and Twitter being quite a crapshow right now is something I could talk more about, but it would feel pointless in a RUclips comment hehe).
Increasing intrusiveness with a (bad) shift in ownership and control along with asinine laws and regulations make it a more mainstream concern than ever. Still, I bet anyone reading this is getting sleepy by now, and I can't blame you one bit. I agree-and I build software. It's crap. Period. Anyone who says differently should consider how a city like NYC would look if your average software engineer did architecture.
Exposure seems to rise, though, especially with scary stuff like Shawn Ryan's recent episode regarding AI (or any of the 500 articles written per day on it). Unfortunately, while the tech has been there the whole time, accessible training hasn't. Speaking more about risk awareness and mitigation rather than practical training; tech can and should enable beginners to benefit with near zero practical effort (the idealist in me tells me).
But if you don't perceive any risk, you probably wouldn't buy or learn to use a gun either, for example, Tools for normal people are few and far between. It's just not simple enough to understand or develop good habits, it takes just a bit too much effort to seem worth it. (Especially for smaller and less concerned creatures, like children.) I have complete understanding for it all, believe me, I get it.
But I can also promise with 100% certainty that it doesn't have to be that way. Hopefully some day I can be a small part of changing that, but time will tell. :) (Ideas are good, they're always welcome at d@nord.lol. Yea, it works, can just remove whenever so I don't care where it ends up hehe.)
Anyway, mostly wanted to say it was a way too interesting episode, really didn't expect to be distracted for several hours-all I wanted was to hear Jack Carr's enthusiastic comments once in a while in the background while I worked on some things! (Jokes aside, thanks guys, apologies for comment length!)
Also must add that few things are as sweet to see as proper gun handling and movement, so I'm curious to check out some of those vids soon. I'm a filthy civilian myself, but have at least competed a bit so I'd hope I'm still somewhat above Call of Duty level despite my advanced age. More importantly, I've seen The Terminal List, so I'm definitely semi-professional in “knowing stuff,” including tactical use of rubber chickens.
"WE SMOKE DOPERS" ...... tour😅You sure do look familiar
👍🏼💯
I took a fencing class in Penn State in 1974. My class members hated me because I always won. They called me "too aggressive". Pussies, AND losers!
😮😮😮
PPK!
The mri scene on Amazon was my " safety on the glock" moment.
huh?
@@teamperry757 you can't have ferrous metal in the room with mri..no guns. The magnet os so strong it will pull heavy ferromagnetic objects into the magnet. I have seen a wheel chair fly 12 feet into one.
@@realbadash yeah those machines are almost always running
@@jimmyconway3814 actually they are always on. If you have to qyence one for an emergency it costs 35000. To replace e coolant and restart. If the magnet or electronics are damaged its 2 million.
That dude reminds me of if Tim Kennedy and Jack Carr had a baby 😅 hell of an episode! Thanks gentlemen
Nice hog splitters on the wall
Really loved the terminal list. Have you read martin ling's Muhammad: His Life Based on the Earliest Sources ? I highly recommend it.
Would have been better if the guest got to do the talking instead of the host….
