    What made this such a great interview is Dan's brutal honesty about his life and experiences....what was great about this guest....when Dan had a long talk.....Mike just listened , not interrupting .

      @@MikeRitland Really loved the whole listening to my dog burn to death in a building part and the shooting animals in Montana. Real hero. 🙄
      I had to turn him off after the dog portion. I was trying to sleep to this. Woke me up. He should stop talking about animal murder and start talk about killing bad guys. Thats his like only job.
      What is wrong with you guys taking out your aggression on little animals? Its a puss move.
      Please don't tell me this is one of Joe Rogan's security seals? 🙄
      He needs to take his behind to a wildlife rehab sanctuary and learn how to respect and heal some wild animals. It's annoying listening to it. Pick on something your own size (that doesn't mean bears) go join whatever blackwater turned into and have a nice day.

    Absolutely a great podcast! When Dan described what he thought was his purpose for being in fighting in the war, how he described what he saw the emotions were pure in every form and I cried with him. Truly an amazing person and I thank you Mike for all that you do in the veteran community, keep up the great work!

    I’ve said this before, but it bears repeating…..Mike is the best damn interviewer that I’ve ever listened to, and I listen to a lot of podcasts! He asks questions of his guests that a lot of listeners, including me, want to know the answers to. Best podcast out there.
    Please keep up the great work Mike! Outstanding!
    As far as Dan Cerritos….what a man! The kind of man to admire and aspire to be. A self-made man and hero.

    Taco seems like a lovable dude,I fell asleep last night half-way through and woke up got coffee and had to finish listening this morning... I listened to Shawn Ryan,Marcus and DJ tell their stories about ibogain therapy and it sent me down the rabbit hole wanting to hear about other people's experiences. I think it's therapeutic just hearing them. Thanks for telling us your story Taco

  • @shauntolan7338
    @shauntolan7338 2 года назад +18

    I love every episode, but THIS?! THIS is what I’ve been searching for. The HONESTY, the stories, the detail, the emotions. I understand all operators hold back due to not wanting to boast or relive the situations, maybe out of respect for others, but THEIR stories need told and heard. This is by FAR the greatest episode to date. Again love them all (very seriously) & thank them for everything they did, but they NEED to let their stories be heard, and we civilians need to hear and understand their stories. Fucking love this guy 🗣💯💪🏻🇺🇸🤙🏻🔥🔥

    This was an absolute first class job. Amazing story or real life courage, and the interviewer (Mike) knew how to listen, no ego with Mike. One of the best interviews you have done and I have been listening for a long time. Still would love to have a Drago interview with Mike, just for the sheer joy and humor that man brings to the table. Gods peace my friend. Dave A. OC, Calif.

    At around 1:13:00 when Dan talked about being "isolationist" now...I couldn't agree more. It's definitely time to take care of our own. Good on you for airing this.

    • @paulabaizabal9820
      @paulabaizabal9820 2 года назад

      @MrMotorSWATCop I couldn't agree more. We have no reason to be involved with what's going on with Ukraine/Russia. Worry about/fix our own house before we start trying to tell anyone else how to run theirs. And we definitely have a lot of sh*t to fix.

    Every one of these interviews sheds a light into a world I barely knew. Ya I served along side several of the team guys thru my time in the service but I only knew them as the tip of the spear and always bringing the fight to the enemy, not the person who suffered and just wanted to survive and love their families. Thank you smile AGAIN for another podcast I didn't want to stop!!

  • @stevecloward

    Dan is a class act and truly authentic. His life journey and overall story is beautiful. The man, husband, father, friend, vet, humanitarian and entrepreneur he has become is one that isn't matched by many. I had the pleasure of having him on my podcast this week and was able to feel his spirit and energy. It was truly beautiful.

  • @jenniel8889
    @jenniel8889 Год назад

    This was an extremely powerful episode on healing❣️Although I didn’t know Dan-RIP 🙏🏻, I absolutely respect and love how he shared the most vulnerable aspects of his life bc there are a lot of men and women needing support in speaking about their difficult experiences. It’s painful work 💔, digging in to those parts of our lives that crushed our souls, but healing can only transpire if we’re willing to confront that darkness, feel it, sit with it, move through it, search for and find understanding, and ultimately share our truths without shame, but instead with a newfound love and respect for ourselves and all those around us. Finding forgiveness in those that hurt us the most is powerful! And it helps us take more responsibility for our actions as well. Wow, I truly felt this man’s words deep within my heart and soul❣️Friggin’ beautiful work supporting veterans ❣️🙏🏻💗Thank you for sharing this man’s journey 🙏🏻

    Real stories that put people in the brutal business of war fighting. I am very appreciative that our country in spite of it’s problems, can produce men who perform at such high levels in terrible circumstances. As a veteran, it humbles me to listen to their sacrifice. That you lads, for your extraordinary service to our country. There are so many times I wish the doors they were kicking in were those of our children running business in D.C. Who knows, maybe one day.

Another great episode and what a guy Mr. Taco is. Both of you are doing a world of good for humanity and just know that we appreciate it. As for calling out "civilian assholes", I for one am glad you just said "assholes" this time because us military (former military) assholes were feeling left out. :-) God Bless!
