Jimmy
Yeah, on Friday, one of my co workers for 20 plus years, Terry Sweeting, mascot, was killed in the line of duty. Shot in the line of duty. It's, it's a different feeling obviously when you know somebody. I, I've obviously been a cop for a very long time and you know, names pop up and you see neighboring agencies lose somebody and you feel terrible. But Terry and I spent 2005 into 2006, about 18 months as zone partners, work in the same neighborhood and you know, you sit next to people more than you sit next to your family. Yeah, you spend time with them, you get to know them, you get to know their, their life and you know, throughout our careers we bounce back and forth and I was at her wedding when she was at my 30th birthday party, like big events. And I ended up supervising her later on in my career around 2021 when I got promoted, she was one of my subordinates. Still close. It's, it goes to show you that there's no such thing as a routine call. There's no such thing as just a regular call. Everything, you know, it was an eviction. Everybody's like, oh, it's just an eviction labeled civil.
Mike
Which makes civil sound less.
Clint
Yeah.
Jimmy
And it's, it's, it's Labeled and I lose. I got the pic. I think I sent you the picture.
Mike
Yeah. Yeah, you should have it, too.
Jimmy
Pull it up real quick. She survived by her. She has a beautiful daughter, Haley. Her mother, Kathy, is a school. A school crossing.
Mike
That's not it. That's the woman burned in Chicago. It was.
Jimmy
The one came from me. There you go, right there. All right. This is. And you know you're in close with me if you have a nickname. So we had a click of people at the sheriff's office where we had nicknames, and we called her Tammy because Paul Newborn, my late friend back here that passed away this year as well. Tammy and Leon, I call him Paul and Terry were very close as well. So we lost two people this year at the sheriff's office that were very close to me. But she had a nickname. So that shows that she was within my circle of people that I really trusted and cared about. And we talked a lot. And it. What I was getting at is it's. It's just a different feeling when that ODMP office memorial down page pops up on your phone and you look at it and you get them all the time. There's 100, usually over 100 officers killed a year. And you click on it and you can go, I can name a thousand calls. Thousand days I spent with her on calls at places. Jokes, laughs. So it's different. And then there's a little bit of anger that comes into it because, you know, and then resentment like I wasn't there anymore. Even for a guy's been retired a year, you think all the times that you've worked calls with her, and it's tough. And like I said, her mother works at the sheriff's office as a school crossing guard. Great woman. She has a daughter. It's a tragedy. And also a civilian lost their life there at that call as well. A locksmith that was at the scene. So a different feeling. And my goal is you never want anybody to pass away deceased and not learn something from it. So some of the tough conversations will come later on once we mourn and all that. Like, you know, talking about the call and what. What could never Monday morning quarterback somebody that put them down. But to say, is there anything like a debrief? What could we do better? Can we ever approach that call better?
Mike
Downplaying. You nailed it. Downplaying types of calls. I spoke to both you on the phone about this, and Jimmy had great points, too. But, like, downplaying, you're. It's. Oh, it's a civil Call we usually no civil deputies typically are people that aren't are. It's a, it's a good gig. So I'm gonna say that it's a good gig. Typically you don't have to do no running and gunning. You're. You're doing paperwork a lot. But to evict someone from their home is probably one of the most. I mean most of the time it goes without a hitch. It's fine. But there's going to be. It's like a domestic violence situation. Most of the time they're just arguing.
Jimmy
Show up and civil is. For those who don't know civil is domestic violence injunctions. So you're being told stay away from your spouse kids, you're losing your kids. Like hey, you have to stay away from your kids. You're being kicked out of your home. Like those are not, those are passion crime of passion type behavior where you can snap. And in this case I'm not going to go into details of this. There was a lot of things that went on with this one but this was an eviction of a middle aged male in a very, very rich neighborhood with where you would if you were going to pick a place where the shooting would occur in our county that would be about 1,000,000th on your list of locations where that would happen. So kind of a perfect storm of location and call type and everything else. But it, it was. Yeah it's been, you know the funeral I believe is December 2nd. For anybody that tunes into my. I'll keep everybody updated. But it's about. And the other thing I can say is it what I try to do. It's about her and her family. I reflected on her, her family. The only thing I don't sometimes like is like other people making these posts and it's like about how they're feeling. Well we know you're sad because I feel sad but save that for later on. Like let her and her name and her picture and her family, let them be in the forefront and put your feelings aside for a minute and just focus on her.
Mike
It's an old joke. We always just say don't forget about me. Like and it's a very hard line to, to walk because you are like we posted. You know I. There's nothing wrong with Rip Hero until Vala. I'm not trying to like no, I get it but like making it about.
Jimmy
Yourself I can't stand and I've been. I'm very disappointed in some. A lot of the posts and a lot of things I Made very brief post. I, I posted exactly that. I'm for her and her family. I posted a picture of Paul and. And Terry together. They were very good friends, very close. And we attended Paul's funeral earlier this year. And that's it. And I'm not gonna.
Mike
It.
Jimmy
I, I kind of feel like when you get online and overdo it, it's like you're doing it for yourself. You're not doing it for that person. You can only say, we all know everybody's sad. This is a terrible, traumatic incident, but it's like, let. Don't make it about yourself. This is a job and also a job where we expected this. We know that people are going to get killed and you don't want it. You don't ever hope for it, but, you know, and it's, it's unfortunate. And that she was a very, very good person.
Tyler
Well, you know, when Tyler. I had to call Tyler earlier that day anyway, and I, I felt like such a dick because I was texting you stupid questions and then, doesn't matter. Tyler was like, hey, dude, maybe give Mike some space. This is what's going on. And so he and I were talking about it and my first thought was, everybody on the night shift still has to go out.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Tyler
Nobody gets to stop. Nobody gets to breathe. Hey, you're not calling off work. You got to go out there and keep being freaking brave and do the job because that's what's expected of you wearing the badge, wearing the uniform in the community.
Jimmy
And it's actually expected more.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
When that stuff goes on, because you are given a status in a gun and a badge, and you are supposed to put your personal life aside. You're supposed to put, you know, like you talked about before we come to work, we get an argument with our kids. We've been mother in law, mom, this, you're, you're, you know, all that stuff, the bills, everything else. And when we come to work, you now are responsible for hundreds of thousands of people to protect them. So you got to kind of put that stuff aside. And in this case, in these cases, and I've been very close with several people from other agencies and fundraisers, and they've lost people. We lost a guy in Miami Dade and you know, our good friend Frank and supporter know this guy. So it, it, it is. How much can we help them? But don't make it about yourself. That's the best thing I can tell.
Mike
You is, you know, I mean, don't make it about the night shift. It's the whole shift, depending on how big your department is, the day shift, where that would have happened, everybody's still got to go to call. Now, granted, it's probably going to shut down for most of the day, but there's still high priority calls that come out. Like when the tone goes off. Yep. And it's a burglary or robbery or something. You can't just put those on the back burner because it sucks. I'll say it. When one of your friends is killed, somebody has got to go take those calls. Most of the calls can be put on hold. Then we're not going to them. We're not going to a lot of code two calls. We're discarding all alarms. We're discarding all civil things. A lot of times domestic violence, I mean, they just say it's going to hold on the board.
Jimmy
And I can tell you it's a different feeling when, you know, Paul passed away. Paul drank a lot. Paul retired, and Paul lived his life and he didn't.
Mike
He.
Jimmy
He did what he wanted to do. In this case, it was so different because she went. She didn't deserve to die, and she didn't.
Mike
She.
Jimmy
It was. It was just a different. I remember Paul passing. My. Even my dad. My dad passed away. It's like, my dad. I knew my dad's health was bad. He drank, he smoked. This is completely different feeling for anybody who hasn't experienced it yet. It. I remember when I got the call that, hey, I think somebody's been shot. And I found out they were, and I knew the situation. And I can tell you it hit me far differently than even a family member, because, you know, my grandparents get old. You expect it. Yeah, she's 47 years old, dude. You know, and it's like, you don't know. And then she went to a call and she's doing her job, and she was taken unexpectedly. And it definitely hit me different than any other death in my 49 long years that I. It hit me completely different.
Mike
Do you think, like, details about the call or. I'm asking you this in real time are appropriate, or do you think right now just, you know.
Jimmy
No, I'm not going to get into it. I'm gonna let them. I'll go into it at some point. I think there's. There's always. You know, my wife is a big advocate for this. She says if. If I get. If that happens to me and you don't tell everybody and, and talk about the call and the situation so that somebody benefits from it, I Think there's always a time to do that. She hasn't even been buried yet. So, yeah, December 2nd is the funeral. I will definitely talk about this in more detail. I just don't again, I that about me.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
Because now I'm talking about even.
Mike
Even training is waiting. Yeah, wait for. Yeah, you wait.
Jimmy
Yeah, yeah, you wait. So I look at it like there's always something to learn. And we, you know, we see the videos and unfortunately, like we talked about social media, you know, we see cops getting killed online all the time. Video makes it up pretty quick these days. And people are getting murdered and we see it and it's like, you know the comments. I should have done this. You should have done. I don't want to be that guy. I definitely do want to talk about it at some point, but right now it's not about me. It's about her family and her.
Tyler
Well, you know, the other thing that I thought about too, and, and this is something that, you know, I don't know how it works with law enforcement. I know how it works as a soldier. You got to go to your guys and be like, hey, I know you're hurting. I know you're angry. You still have to be professional and do your job.
Jimmy
Yes.
Mike
Yeah, that's huge. That's huge. I don't want to be at this call. What do you want? Why'd you call me? You can't have that.
Jimmy
Yeah. And, and you have to control the over swing of force as well. Now you have this like now the next eviction call or the next call where somebody starts not showing your hands, you can't go, well, this just happened two days ago. I'm gonna just, yeah, I'm gonna pull up my gun, start blasting. Like you have to, you have to manage those emotions. And this is what, how do I say this? When you run a well oiled agency, these are the things that when they happen, you can handle them very, very easily or, or as best as you can. When everything else is a disaster as it currently is, this just is so much worse. There's manpower issues, there's budget issues. There's all these other problems that they're managing on top of this. Not that other agencies don't have problems, but I think it highlights some of those things where. And the other thing I'll say, I will say this is, look at this and think, are you, if you're a cop or you know, a cop, are they ready for this call? Are they ready to be on a call that seems very benign. Are you walking up to that call going, this could be the one. And I'm not talking about you got your gun out at everybody, but in your head. This is a nice house, everybody's cool. You don't know that cousin Earl might be upstairs having the worst day of his life. He just got worked on Warhammer and he said he's having a bad day. Like, you know, you know what I'm saying? Like you don't know what everybody else is going through. So it's like you should always be cautious. And that's where that community affairs and the dancing around on Tick Tock videos, everybody's great versus like, you know, your hardcore guys with the black across their eyes that are run around rifles. In the middle of that somewhere is a little bit of both. You have to be vigilant though, of what is going on. Like you said, a civil call seems so benign. But you're telling somebody you got nowhere to live today. Yeah, like today at 4:00 and it's been going.
Mike
They know it's coming.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Mike
They're not just like caught by surprise, like why you're kicking me out. Like they determined this is my Alamo.
Jimmy
They know well ahead of time you've got no three day notice. They've gotten a certain day note, they've gotten the notices. And now you come there to that day and go, you're on the street. You have three hours to move all your stuff outside and you're done. Or even worse is like, hey, you're not allowed to see your kids. Like there's an injunction. You're not allowed to see your kids.
Tyler
It's unfortunate and you know, I hate to, I hate. Well, I'll just leave it at that. You said it well enough, Mike. I apologize.
Jimmy
Yeah, no, no, there's not. And it's not, like I said, it's not. I handle things very differently than most people. I am, I understand death and I understand all that. But I, I just if just don't make it about yourself, make it about the person and do what you can for their family and take a step back from the limelight or the posts and just say, hey, I'm going to focus on making sure nobody else that doesn't have anybody else. I'm going to be very vigilant and I'm going to be there to help everybody in, in this process because that's who really needs the help is the family. And, and you know, like I said, there's a young girl without a mother right now.
Tyler
We can, we can peel this apart.
Jimmy
Yeah, we will.
Tyler
Later.
Jimmy
We're gonna peel it all the way apart.
Mike
But speaking of making everything all by yourself. Oh, Rob o'.
Canine
Neill.
Mike
The Rob o' Neill Chronicles. Continue. Can you throw up?
Jimmy
My little.
Mike
When I say Rob o' Neill Chronicles, we're learning in the studio, you throw up. We got that. No, we.
Tyler
We did. We did some troubleshooting today. Everybody's making comments about how awesome the. The video looks.
Jimmy
So we're gonna get Lewis on board here.
Tyler
Yeah, we.
Jimmy
We.
Tyler
Me and Lewis came in.
Mike
There you go. Boom.
Tyler
Came into the studio early, got the hardwire made.
Mike
I love that. That. That. Side by side right there. The Rob o' Neill updates. We're not. Yeah, it's not Chronicles, it's update. You corrected me. He went on the Bill O'Reilly show, and it's only 10 minutes. We're gonna break it down, but it's. There's a couple things to take away from this, and we'll watch the whole thing, and then. And then we'll. We'll pause it and break it down as needed. But, yeah, this is. This is comical at best. Oh, boy.
Tyler
I can't wait.
Jimmy
Roll it, Louis. Yeah, that's your cue.
Mike
You can get rid of that. Yeah.
Tyler
Shameless plug.
Mike
Yeah, It's funny because obviously Bill O'Reilly is going to back Rob O' Neill because he is heavily invested in Rob O'. Neill.
Jimmy
Like in the story.
Mike
Dude, you can't go, oh, like, I just. All of my books that were sold are possibly alive. Nobody in the right mind is going to do that. Best case scenario, you just go, rob, never call me again. I hope it works out for you.
Tyler
Video quality is great. No sound, Lewis. No sound. Okay.
Mike
No sound in the video.
Tyler
That's correct.
Mike
Oh, man.
Tyler
Hey, I mean, we'll keep going. I mean, I'll paraphrase it.
Mike
No. Well, we'll replay. It was only. It was only a minute.
Bill O'Reilly
What happened with killing Osama bin Laden in the raid on bin Laden's compound? May 2, 2011, Pakistan. Okay, we open Killing Killers.
Mike
Can you go? All right, go back.
Jimmy
Okay, you want me to go back to the beginning?
Mike
Back at the beginning. Okay, go back to the beginning, Lewis.
Jimmy
You want me to go back to the beginning?
Bill O'Reilly
Million podcasts in America, and we don't do a podcast. So if you account in US, then you have to go down one.
Clint
All right.
Bill O'Reilly
Many of them are irresponsible. They're just people spouting, saying whatever they want to say. They don't think there's any accountability. Well, There is now because a lawsuit has been filed in New York State by a man named Robert o'. Neill. Now, if you read my book Killing the Killers, you know who Robert o' Neill is. He's a former Navy SEAL who is credited with killing Osama bin Laden in the raid on bin Laden's compound. May 2, 2011, Pakistan. Okay, we open Killing Killers. It is harrowing what happened in that raid. Robert o' Neill pulled the trigger and ended bin Laden's life. We checked it every way we could possibly check it.
Jimmy
It's in the book.
Bill O'Reilly
We believe it happened.
Mike
It's in the book.
Jimmy
It's in the book.
Mike
We've heard this before. We've heard. We've checked it. Right? We had the Tim Kennedy thing, right? Where we did Tim Kennedy. We. Nick Palano was like, dude, we checked with everyone, right? We had those people on the show and they said no one checked with any of us. Right. So that was a lie. So could it happen? Yes. So. And then Bill O'Reilly proceeds to go. It's in the book. Yeah. So I believe it.
Tyler
So, I mean, here's the thing. Andy came out. Andy Stump had a last. Was the last. Was it Friday? Saturday? Oh, yeah, it was Friday. It was just clear to hot broadcast. And he. That was the first thing he opened with is, hey, the story you told is not what I've heard from other people that were at the command. I don't think this is going to go well for you. You should probably stop now if you don't know who Annie Stumpf is. He was out there at damn neck with that organization, you know, dev group it.
Mike
I don't think it gets even better.
Tyler
Oh, I'm sure. I just like watch this.
Bill O'Reilly
There's a podcast, two guys that say o' Neill's a fraud. He didn't kill him. Bin Laden. Now we've got to look at o' Neill's resume. Two silver stars, four bronze medals, Joint service accommodation medal, three presidential unit citations to Navy and Marine Corps accommodation medals. I mean, the guy was in the Navy 16 years. He's one of the most decorated officers, Chief Petty officer. And now these two are saying N is a fraud. So joining us now from New York City is.
Mike
Real quick, I want you guys to watch him correct Bill and actually go into how much more awesome he actually is.
Clint
What?
Mike
Rob actually talks so much. We'll see. Bill has to shut him up or. Yeah, Bill has to shut him up. Go ahead.
Bill O'Reilly
Senior Chief Petty Officer Robert o', Neal, retired. Now, did I sum that up accurately? Did I miss anything or misstate anything?
Tyler
No.
Rob O'Neill
Thank you for that, Mr. O'Reilly. It's good to be back with you. The only little thing is all four bronze stars have valor. One of the accommodations has valor. The joint accommodation has valor. And silver stars do not come with valor. It's just assumed gallantry against the enemy. No, that was good. And it's the case, too. It's just like you said, with millions of podcasts, people can say whatever they want and then there's really no accountability. And these guys have been coming after me for a solid two years now, and I've listened to it a bunch of times. I don't like hearing it. And I've heard stuff because this is a very high profile mission. I was actually involved with the most high profile missions to include rescuing the lone survivor, Marcus Luttrell. I was the lead jumper to rescue Richard Phillips from Somali pirates, and I was the guy that ended up shooting Osama bin Laden. And I've heard stuff, and I do, from other veterans, towards other veterans. I'm tired of the vet on vet hate. But when my college age daughter started calling me, having trouble sleeping at night and going to bed crying because their father's a fraud, everything he did was a lie. It starts to get to me. And these are the same girls that when I. One of my daughters was three, when I left to go after Osama bin Laden, I wasn't allowed to tell her or my family where I was going. I was pretty sure I wasn't coming back. I was saying goodbye to her for the last time, and she ran upstairs, got a hello Kitty carry on, put a Mr. Elephant and a pillow in it and said, take me on vacation when you get back. That's enough to live with.
Jimmy
Right? That was, that was a more detailed account than anything else he talked about ever remembered all that. Go ahead.
Clint
Jesus.
Rob O'Neill
There we did come back when we lived. And then, you know, 14 or however many years later to hear it's all fake, it's all made up, and I'm a fraud. There is a time to stand up to bullies in everyone's life. And this is just my time again to go find the bully and win.
Bill O'Reilly
All right, what are you suing for.
Mike
Good.
Jimmy
He just compared you to guys feel summer.
Tyler
I think you can definitely make that argument.
Jimmy
No, he just said it. I mean, allegedly. He just said that again. He said, again, I'm gonna go after the biggest bully. So Brent Tucker, Tyler Hoover, and Osama bin Laden are right there, all on the same.
Tyler
I'm not like all of these. See, if you put me in the lawsuit, Rob, but you can't even mention my name.
Mike
Come on, bro. Watch how he does me dirty. Watch out, Bill.
Jimmy
Good.
Rob O'Neill
Well, I'm suing them for defamation because.
Bill O'Reilly
Defamation. They're defaming your character, calling you a liar, and you're suing them. Why do you think these guys are doing it? There are two of them, right? Brent Tucker and Tyler Hoover. Those are the two guys.
Mike
Look at that double chin. That, is that, is that like something off Family Guy? That was my post. SWAT stopped running. So much bod, but I've been there. No facial hair, no nothing. But it is surreal hearing your name come out of Bill O'Reilly's mouth. I will say that, dude, even though he's dunking on me like it is crazy like that. That's a new, That's a new thing for me.
Tyler
I mean, like I, I looked at you the other night when we had a phone call with a couple of individuals that I don't know if we want to. Well, I guess you did talk about it on the mic drop podcast.
Mike
Let them find it there.
Tyler
Okay. And I, I looked at you and said, what world do we live in? Yeah, it's wild. Anyway, sorry.
Mike
Oh, you're good.
Bill O'Reilly
Eiser suing.
Rob O'Neill
Those are the two main guys. Brent Stucker in particular, former operator at a tier one unit for the army, which is a stellar unit. I mean, it's almost surprising too, that the unit is letting him be the face of the unit. But that's what they're doing. And I'm going after them because they're in talks with people behind the scenes that are just telling them different stuff. They're basing it on an. An after actions report that we gave after the bin Laden raid. And there was a guy who was actually just on Sean Ryan's show last week. He was on the raid too. He based his book no Easy Day on the after action report. That isn't quite true, but he went on Sean Ryan show and admitted that he shot him on after. He's.
Jimmy
Yeah. Oh, my God, again, you're throwing your own. They authored a report that's not the biggest raid in history of mankind, and they authored something that's not true. So this brings me back to. He's saying you guys are lying about him. And again, you, you just repeated. You, you have no idea what happened there. You repeated things that people told you about.
Mike
That was on an AR.
Jimmy
That was there. That was on an AR, and then they were there in 21, he, in the last real. He talks about lying on that. And now he says that the after action review of the biggest mission in history of the military per se is a lie.
Tyler
So I, I, to, to your point, I've talked to some other guys that are tier one guys and, and tier two guys that have been in the comments, you know, so Green Berets and, and guys from Ranger Bat. You might make the truth a little bit more palatable in your operations summary up to higher. But you don't lie in your AAR because the AAR is for you and your unit.
Mike
Yeah.
Tyler
And first of all, how is he basing Matt Bisson? That's not basing his book on an Aaron. He's basing it on the fact that he went on the mission. Sorry.
Jimmy
Well, he says best. That wasn't even in the building. So that's a huge discrepancy on both of them. So anyway, sorry. This is wild that this is on Fox News.
Mike
He sucks.
Jimmy
I thought he was still on Fox News.
Mike
No, he's awful.
Jimmy
So what does he have? This is not a podcast. What is.
Mike
He got a book. That's false.
Jimmy
But he said he's not a podcast. What is he.
Mike
He's like@bill o'reilly.com thing.
Jimmy
So it's a podcast without the name of a podcast?
Tyler
Yeah.
Bill O'Reilly
Okay.
Rob O'Neill
That I purposely left out of the After Action One. Amal bin Laden was shot before I got there. She got shot somehow. And then other guys shop in Laden after I had killed him. I left them out of that on purpose because a lot of stuff doesn't need to go.
Tyler
All right, all right.
Bill O'Reilly
But that'll all be adjudicated in the court.
Jimmy
It's just good.
Mike
Dude, shut up, Rob. We got to get back on track. Like, I, I love that part. All right.
Jimmy
Go for the law.
Bill O'Reilly
What I'm trying to get at here is why do these guys want to do this to you? There's enough evidence that says what you. No, there's not did happened. You got guys in your unit. You got the commander. Because we checked all that out before we put it in killing the killers. Okay, so why would these guys want to go up against that? Is there a reason?
Rob O'Neill
Well, I mean, there's got to be a reason. It's got to be peppered with jealousy, and some of it could be post traumatic.
Bill O'Reilly
So you don't know these guys? You never talked to them? Never met. Never met him.
Rob O'Neill
I was at my mom's house in Butte, Montana, and it came across one of my feeds where this guy Brent Tucker was saying, I know for a fact that Rob o' Neill did not kill bin Laden. And I even responded to him, which is a mistake because it gave him credit or it gave him some eyes on. And I just said, I think my first response was, dude, I don't even know you.
Mike
He responded right now without.
Rob O'Neill
Without question. I know exactly what happened.
Bill O'Reilly
American homeowners, the FBI.
Mike
If. Yeah, I don't know if you can skip without. This is a commercial. If you can skip it without going haywire, do it. If not, just play it. Look at that. Oh, go back room.
Bill O'Reilly
And the Lord.
Jimmy
Oh, you were saying something. Go ahead, Louis.
Canine
Okay.
Bill O'Reilly
Player fees and all that. You got a guy working on.
Jimmy
Get this into the courtroom.
Bill O'Reilly
This is New York State. It's going to take you years to get this into the courtroom. And the lawyer fees and all that. You got a guy working pro domono on your behalf. You paying them the lawyer?
Rob O'Neill
Yeah, I've hired a firm to help me out. David Schwartz is helping me out. We've gone through a lot of. We've gotten. I've gotten. You know, I even got like. Like, you probably talked to Admiral Bill McRaven, who was overall in charge. We talked about to Barack Obama. I've got a letter that he wrote from him, and I had to tell him as well, I don't want to do this. I would appreciate a letter. And he obviously said, well, of course I'll help you. And I. I said, what do I owe you? And he said, you already did it. And that's. I mean, that's something about the Nobel you're gonna win.
Bill O'Reilly
It's just gonna take forever. And then it'll be. This is New York State, okay? They designed the whole civil legal system to enrich the attorneys, to keep it going for years and years and years. That's what they do. So say at the end, you win. These guys don't have money to pay you off big time.
Mike
Watch his reaction.
Bill O'Reilly
The two podcasters, they don't have anything.
Rob O'Neill
Well, I mean, I don't. I don't. I don't think I'm gonna. I'm. I'm. I have worried. I don't think anybody wins.
Mike
What that was, was he was trying. He couldn't say what he wanted to say, and he was just caught up. I. Because also, Bill set him up for failure right there. You're. Are you trying to bankrupt and take from veterans, too? Is that what you're doing? You know, And Mike, you look like.
Jimmy
You want to say something. No, oh, this is bizarre. The whole thing's bizarre to me. It's just bizarre.
Mike
What were you saying, Jimmy, earlier? I. I did.
Tyler
Dude, I have so many thoughts going through my head right now. I mean, listen, first of all, we have to talk about this stuff now. It's. It's in the news. It's in the zeitgeist. Second of all, I wasn't on that raid. I never said anything bad up until you sued me, Rob. And I was like, okay, I guess I'm in this box hole now. Here's what I actually think. But I don't know what. I don't know what I was thinking about in that moment. I was just like, I'm just flat. I'm flummoxed. I have no words for this.
Mike
All right, keep going to do this. No.
Bill O'Reilly
All right.
Rob O'Neill
But.
Bill O'Reilly
But I'm going in the legal system, so there's going to be a jury trial unless these two guys settle.
Tyler
I don't know.
Bill O'Reilly
Maybe you would settle with them. I don't know. But it's gonna be a jury and they're gonna say, no, this is all bull. And, you know, these guys attacked him and they were malicious in doing it, and it's a defamatory system. So they got to pay Robert o' Neal this much money, which not going to be able to pay.
Clint
So you're.
Bill O'Reilly
And correct me if I'm wrong, this just looks like you want a righteous action against what you believe is very wrong. That's what it looks like to me.
Rob O'Neill
Yeah, that's. That's very correct, Mr. O'Reilly. And. And it will also be a stand for the vet on vet. Hey, this is not.
Tyler
I'm not. I'm.
Rob O'Neill
I am the first veteran.
Mike
They've that right there. That. Oh, man. He's going. He's going to call Bill O'Reilly and say, you need to remove that because. Oh, yeah, you can remove the video. But no, what he just said there was. You are doing this as a righteous act.
Jimmy
Bill's trying to make it sound like he's doing it for the right reason, but it does. The right reason.
Mike
You cannot do. You cannot sue someone for defamation because. Because you are doing something righteous.
Jimmy
Correct.
Mike
That is not the definition. Yeah. Of defamation.
Jimmy
Defamation is a false statement that harms another's reputation and is communicated to a third party. It includes both libel, written or published defamation, slander. To be considered defamation, this false statement must be presented as fact and cause injury to the other person's character. You guys have repeatedly talked about what other people have told you. We and his own people.
Mike
We. Yes. And so without going into details about the case, there's just like the biggest things to take away is he said, Rob o' Neal said in there they are getting their information from other people that were there. Okay. So he said that just now. They are getting. That's quoted. They are getting their.
Jimmy
You had that downloaded, right? Oh yeah.
Mike
Okay, I've got it. They are getting their information from other people who.
Jimmy
That sounds pretty. Which you guys would believe to be factual. If you called me and said I was here and I told. This is what happened. And you reprint. That's what the news does.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
The news gets information from somebody who was there and then publishes it.
Mike
So there's that one. The biggest number two thing is that he is suing to shut up. Brent Tucker, Tyler river and Jimmy are not. That's what he's doing. He is suing them when.
Jimmy
Nope.
Mike
Yeah. No, that's what. But those are the two things to take away.
Jimmy
In his own words, on a, on a nationally broadcasted thing, he said, you guys are telling the story of what other people told you that were there. Yeah. In the after action report that they all lied on.
Mike
Ah, yeah.
Bill O'Reilly
Dude.
Tyler
Allegedly Allegedly lied. According to one person. It was untrue.
Jimmy
And he's a very. I'll say this because his podcast and I can't say it was him. It was his podcast. They came. I've, I, I never said a word about the guy. And one of my, you know, I got demoted over an arrest. But Corey Smith was one of the people involved. Very debatable. Carl Anderson did a three and a half hour documentary where he covers in detail body camera and everything else. I just basically said, I went on his page when they. He reported that the podcast was dead. And I said, don't believe this. This is a lie. You know, it's not dead. And his podcast responded to me, are you going to talk about Corey Smith? Like that's the type of people, you know, this is them. Like, yeah, I have already talked about. But because somebody fed him that IA that was the nasty comeback to me when all I said was I knew the podcast wasn't going anywhere because I was coming on. Yeah. So that was my response. But talk about hate, veteran hate and all that. I'm a vet, I'm a police officer. And his first response was let's attack him over a critical incident where he was demoted regardless, wrongfully. And his first response to me was that then he deleted it and then claimed Robert o' Neill doesn't know who I am.
Tyler
So this is, this is one of the major logical fallacies. This is what's called an ad hominem attack.
Mike
Thanks. That's the word of the day.
Tyler
That's the word of the day. Ad hominem. And what it basically means is I'm saying you suck. So therefore don't listen to what this person is saying because you have skeletons in your closet, too. That's not addressing the facts. That's addressing the messenger. That's an ad hominem attack. It doesn't work. It doesn't fly in a courtroom. It doesn't fly anywhere.
Mike
Yeah, because you're not staying on the subject at hand.
Jimmy
Bill O'Reilly just said you're suing these guys to shut them up, not money. It's not about the 20. Like, you literally. That's what he said. This is like a, the way he said it was like, this is like a. Instead of going in the comments saying, you, I'll just make it even worse. I'll sue you because you made me feel ucky icky. Said in his own words. That's what he said. So you're not going after these guys because there's no money. You're just. And he was like, oh, yeah, I guess. Like, like, look, man, you know, I, I don't know. I don't know. He blocked you guys. He wouldn't interact. He could have come on and said, hey, desist.
Mike
No, hey, you guys.
Jimmy
Well, you guys are repeating. So you guys, in his own words, you're repeating what other people told you.
Mike
And you brought up the fact that Andy Stump product. I, I, I took Andy Stump saying this years before we did on a couch with Mike Glover and Evan from Black Rifle Coffee Company.
Tyler
Evan Hackner. Hagner, Hafner.
Mike
Hafner, Hefner, whatever. Is it Hafer. Hafer.
Canine
There it is.
Mike
Evan Hafer. And verbatim, he says, you know, there is a narrative that's out there that has conflicting stories from what the public understand, understands that he said that. I cropped that and put that out there kind of like as a preview for our episode. So what stated before us, we stated that because of that. And then Annie Stump came on and said the same thing on Friday. Yeah.
Jimmy
Again, years later.
Mike
That's.
Jimmy
He said the same thing.
Bill O'Reilly
That's.
Tyler
First of all, we, he, he made it sound like we've continued on this narrative for years. The reality is, is that we, the three of us in this room, have only reacted to his jackassery.
Jimmy
I don't even really know the guy.
Tyler
I don't know him.
Jimmy
I don't know anything about him.
Tyler
We haven't said a. That stuff came out in 2023. Yeah, that's. Oh, and we were done. Stop using big words.
Mike
Ah, Dylan. Dylan, back from when we started the show. Five bucks for the boys. He's a member. Thank you so much, Dylan. And another super chat from Travis Mill. Five bucks. So Rob can get his five bucks if he wins. But yeah, that's it. Just wanted to cover that Rob o' Neill chronicles usually are on Thursdays, but we couldn't let this one sit because he went on Bill O'Reilly, and Bill O'Reilly said my name, which is pretty cool. Real quick. Oh, what's up?
Tyler
No, just craziness.
Mike
Yeah, I'm never gonna stop. It's gonna keep going. That's why it's a Rob o'. Neill.
Jimmy
As I reschedule that. You want to announce what we're doing this week?
Clint
Yes.
Jimmy
Because of Thanksgiving.
Mike
Yes. So we'll. We will be doing the broadcast on Wednesday the 26th. We will also be doing the night shift on Wednesday the 26th. We will. I will be doing something live on Thanksgiving, and I think these guys will help me out on it. I don't, you know, it's all nothing. It's our, it's our venture to make sure none of the boys spend holidays alone.
Jimmy
Yes.
Mike
So we are going. You know, we have families and stuff, but we all have been there. And it's not like a depressing thing. It's not that we think you're gonna do anything. It's just for the fact that nobody, because of our jobs, because of our lifestyles, that causes divorce. That causes us to leave our families to go deploy somewhere. Causes us to get stationed somewhere. We got no immediate family. Wife's got the or ex. Wife's got the kids. It doesn't matter. You're. No one should spend the holidays alone. So the boys won't.
Jimmy
Yeah, we'll be. Yeah, we'll be on. And, you know, Wednesday I'll drop my noon episode. Wednesday night is Hot Topic with Cottonville on. So I'm gonna have to film that. I'm do that from here. So I'll be live on Hot Topic from Copville, on counterculture from 87 to 8 before the night shift goes active. And then when canine comes on, we'll talk about the other.
Mike
Well, Canine says, I'm ready when you are.
Jimmy
Bring him in.
Canine
I'm.
Mike
Look, is he in the. Is he even in?
Jimmy
No, he's not. Come on in. Tell him to come on in.
Mike
No, I didn't get an email yet. Jesus. Okay.
Jimmy
We'Ll work on that.
Mike
Hey, I mean go you guys. If you guys could. Could you talk about range day December 6th?
Jimmy
Yeah, range. I need the thing.
Mike
It's the pictures up. We have it in there.
Jimmy
I gotta wait for Louis.
Mike
We should have it in there. No, I. I'll handle that. Lewis, you just keep going with the podcast.
Jimmy
Get the range day flyer up if you can.
Mike
Right there.
Jimmy
Over, over, over, over. Right, right.
Tyler
Dylan, Matt says there you go. He's going to be watching on the Thanksgiving show. He sent two bucks. Thanksgiving show. I'll be watch. I'll be working and watching. So.
Mike
Yeah. Dude, is that.
Jimmy
That's. Is that it?
Mike
No, that's not it.
Jimmy
Okay, remove that. Lewis, we got to get a folder. Like we have to have a meeting.
Mike
That's Lewis's job. I just. Everything.
Jimmy
There's a range day brochure.
Mike
It was sent. We did it last episode. So it's just probably. Don't worry about it. This.
Jimmy
I'm basically. I'm gonna outshoot you on December. That's that Sunday or that Friday.
Mike
Are we doing something the night before?
Jimmy
Yeah, well, that's the day. December 5th is the night I out shoot you in. In South Carolina at the range event. Are we doing it?
Mike
But aren't we trying to do a live show that night?
Jimmy
Yeah, well, we're gonna stream for Patreon on that night and then. But that's like they're gonna be shooting and. And having that our competition.
Mike
We just watched this. Apparently we just watched the second biggest lie on Rob o' Neill on the Riley show. That's the. That's the. The first biggest lie is Mike out shooting me.
Jimmy
Okay, so there it is. That's warrior range day up in South Carolina.
Mike
Ridgewood.
Jimmy
Yes. Yes. And it's sponsored by Daniel Defense. And as soon as I think it's out of the way, Operation Patriots. It is a non complete, non profit day. So it's Friday night is like a fun shoot where you and I are going to shoot. They'll be running the course of fire. There's like a bonfire and then we'll be streaming there. And Saturday is a whole day of competition and we're gonna be interviewing the guys. We're not selling anything. It's another day where we're going up there completely on our own time to help with that non profit. And there's a whole like SWAT type competition. But it's not an agency sponsored thing. It's a non profit operation we're raising money for.
Mike
So if you're in South Carolina, I.
Jimmy
Guess it's like an hour from Savannah, Georgia, somewhere up there in South Carolina.
Mike
South. South Carolina.
Jimmy
Middle of nowhere.
Mike
Yeah. If you, if you're in there, you want to come hang out with us, get with us. We'll figure out and I'm not going, right? Are you?
Tyler
I can go. I just don't know. I, I, I never actually asked.
Jimmy
My wife might go.
Mike
Oh, really?
Jimmy
Yeah, she's all, she was originally working, so we'll coordinate that. Jimmy might be going. I mean, anybody can go they want. I just don't know. We haven't even looked in a hotel yet. I heard the closest hotels are not close far away. And that is right in the area where that deputy went bonkers and put it, pointed the gun at all the kids.
Tyler
What?
Jimmy
Yeah. Remember the deputy video?
Tyler
Yeah, yeah.
Jimmy
Where the kids were in the road and he was screaming, yelling. That's like Beaumont, I think is what they.
Mike
Yeah, I was like in the middle of nowhere.
Jimmy
Yeah, we'll, we'll pump that up next, next week. One more time before we go. But those guys are awesome. And they're letting us have a booth up there for a small donation. We're gonna make a donation to the charity and we're gonna go up there and I'll show Tyler how to shoot. I'll be shooting my Sig too.
Mike
Oh, wow. I'll shoot you with Glock.
Jimmy
Okay.
Mike
All right.
Jimmy
Got a switch on it yet? Because they're available.
Mike
I got old.
Jimmy
Have you seen the videos yet? They're all over now. The V has already been modified to have a full switch. Let's bring canine.
Mike
You can't break the spirit of America.
Jimmy
No.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
Hottest sports better on the Internet right now.
Tyler
Damn, dude.
Canine
Dude, I'm hot, baby.
Jimmy
Let's first talk about.
Mike
Oh, yeah, wait, hold on. I, I spend money on. All right. I spend time on these.
Jimmy
Hold on.
Mike
Do it Sports with canine.
Jimmy
There it is.
Mike
Monday morning segment.
Jimmy
All right, so first I'm gonna pump our new show locks with cobville. Sundays at 11:45am an hour or so right before the game start. I will concede that K9 hit about three or four monster locks that morning. And I'd have you have bet with him. You would be a lot richer on Monday morning and be a lot poor if you bet with me. So start out with how your weekend betting went.
Canine
The weekend betting. Betting went great. I did the podcast with you. It was Kind of on the fly. Didn't really, you know, get ready for it or anything like that. Most of it was on the fly. Kind of just freestyled it, man. And went with my. Went with what I thought and I was in. I nailed it. I think just about everything I said hit the.
Jimmy
Sanders, the shooter Sanders. That was Shador Sanders was absolutely epic. You called that game to the T. He was going to ball out. They were gonna win. I picked the Browns.
Mike
I think.
Jimmy
I'm sorry. I picked the other team.
Canine
And you picked the Raiders.
Clint
Yeah, yeah.
Mike
You.
Jimmy
Absolutely. And I, I was busy watching the giants blow another 10 point lead. But the first highlight I saw the game was like, Sanders rolling out, throwing a bomb down the field for a touchdown. And I was like, he called it. So, yeah, you.
Mike
You definitely my lock of the week.
Canine
I mean, the question I asked you was, is Shador Sanders a mattress?
Tyler
Yeah, he was.
Jimmy
He said he was gonna lay it down.
Canine
No, because I'm sick of people sleeping on him, man. This guy, this guy, the son of prime time, he came out of college. I. I had him as a number one quarterback coming out of college.
Jimmy
I still think Dart is number one.
Canine
But, I mean, as of right now, Dart is number one. And I had Dart up there. But when it came down to it, coming out of the draft, I had Sanders, and Dart up there is my top two. I didn't have Cam Ward up there. Even as a Miami Hurricanes fan, you.
Jimmy
Know, we went and the Eagles blew it. We saw the Eagles blow it.
Tyler
Oh, man.
Canine
A 21 point lead. Oh, that was terrible.
Jimmy
Jimmy's team got manhandled, dude.
Tyler
Well, Jimmy's a. I've been waiting for you to come on K9 because.
Mike
Can we talk about.
Tyler
Can we talk about Todd Bulls, the defensive mastermind yet, please?
Canine
Listen, I'm a big Todd Bowles guy. I love Todd Bowles. I would probably fight anybody for the guy. If you pointed at him and said fight them, I'd probably do it. I love Todd Bulls. He's my. He's my dude. He's my guy. But after a game like last night, things are starting to get a little shaky. That lead they have on the NFC south is starting to dwindle. The Carolina Panthers are coming for that. If the Tampa Bay Bucks do not win the division this year, I think that might be a good enough reason to let them go. Honestly, as much as it hurts to.
Mike
Say it, I. I.
Tyler
Look, I like Todd Bowles as much as anybody, okay? But I do not need a Mike Tomlin, okay? Where we go 10 and 6 and. Or 10 and 7 for 20 years and, and we make it to the playoffs, we exit in the wild card. Like, I, I'm not, I'm not here for that. We're built to win. Let's go. And if you can't do that, I mean, it's almost like he becomes OBE by the mid season. He's. He's just overcome by events and then they go on a run at the very end and they somehow squeak it out and I'm tired of watching it. I miss Bruce.
Canine
Yeah, I don't blame you. I mean, he's not Bruce. Bruce was an offensive mastermind and he had Tom Brady with him too. So, I mean, it's going to be hard to top that. But I mean, the Bucks have had a lot of injuries this year. They played the best team to me in the NFL last night. Maybe this could be some motivation for them. Baker looks banged up. Yeah, yeah, they pulled him up. I mean, pull him out. But he looked banged up before that even happened. I mean, he was questionable all week to play anyway, so.
Tyler
He's banged up because he's trying to carry the freaking team.
Jimmy
Yeah, I like his story. I like his story to come back around and all that. So tell us where we can find you tonight.
Mike
Well, I have one more question. I wanted him to talk about the University of Alabama stabbing.
Jimmy
Oh, yeah.
Mike
What in the hell?
Jimmy
UAB University, Alabama, Birmingham.
Mike
Yeah.
Canine
Yes. We're not talking about Alabama Crimson Tide here. We're talking about the stepbrother over here. We're talking about uab, University of Alabama, Birmingham. Now this college is known for being kind of a school that takes guys that get in trouble in D1. Schools actually have a friend from Vero that went to UAB after he transferred from Indiana. So it's a school that's known for getting guys that are somewhat already troublemakers. Not that all of them are troublemakers, but a lot of guys go there. Yeah, legend and you know, guys that weren't scouted. And so it's a low, lower level school, obviously, when it comes to those rankings. Trent Dilfer was actually the coach of uab and now he ended up getting fired. So I think it's. Or yes, it's Alex Mortensen, son of the ESPN legend, Chris Mortensen, legendary anchor from espn. So he's a coach. But this Saturday, a young man named Daniel Miny, an offensive lineman who transferred there in May, is now in custody. He ended up stabbing two of his teammates before the game on Saturday, a couple hours before the game against usf, this team still played the game. And they're saying, they're saying the reason is because it was senior night. It was the last home game of the year. Although a lot of players did not play in this game. A lot of the guys sat out. They just weren't feeling it after, obviously what happened. Daniel Minty is currently in the Jefferson County Jail facing an attempted murder charge right now. Two counts of it.
Mike
What in the world before game, but on game day, before a game would possess someone to stab his two teammates? What could have happened?
Tyler
There was an altercation on the field right before that, like Friday.
Mike
What gun?
Canine
No, the coach hasn't really talked much about it. They haven't released the name of the players that were stabbed. The coach is kind of being hush hush about it right now. Not too many details have been put out there. But I don't know if it was a pre game meeting and the guys were messing with them, you know, I mean it's. It's college football. Like I said, a lot of the guys that go to uab, a lot of them are troublemakers. Who knows what the hell happened? I mean they could have been messing with them.
Jimmy
Justin's got a good point. Maybe it's a gambling debt. Maybe they were supposed to throw the game, you know. Holy.
Mike
What kind of world do we live in?
Jimmy
You would, if you told somebody that.
Mike
Is savage 30 or 40 years. That is savage behavior 30 or 40.
Jimmy
Years ago that there would be a stabbing in the locker room before a college football game. They would never, ever, ever, ever believe.
Mike
That fatherless behavior is what we like to call it right now.
Jimmy
Oh my God.
Canine
I'm just thinking if Trent Dilfer was there because I'm sure you guys have heard of Trent Dilfer.
Jimmy
He wants.
Tyler
I'm a Buccaneers fan, of course I know Trent, dude.
Bill O'Reilly
Yeah.
Canine
I mean he's no longer the coach, but could you imagine if Trent Dilfer was there? Oh my gosh. He would have went nuts.
Tyler
Or he might have just thrown.
Jimmy
There was an anniversary. I saw the anniversary of Bottlegate was today. I believe you remember Bottlegate.
Mike
No.
Jimmy
Cleveland Brown. I was at the game of all places on earth. Cleveland, Ohio versus Jack. Cleveland Browns versus Jacksonville.
Tyler
What were you doing?
Jimmy
I might. The mother of all four of my kids are from whole families from Strongsville, Ohio. So her dad would work for Keybank and had a luxury box. And we're on the. We're like four rows up watching this game. 2001 I believe. And the fourth down play happens. They call it a first down Browns run up and spike the ball. So there's been another play. Play should be done. The referee went back and said their buzzer didn't work to get the plate to get the review in for the previous play. So even after a play was run, they went back and reviewed the fourth down play and determined it was not a first down in Cleveland. And the place went crazy. And they were still selling the plastic bottles. So everybody was leaving a quarter inch and I was there and they just started. They, they, they covered the field with bottles. It was called bottlegate. And one of the biggest decisions made was they ended the game with 48 seconds left and the commissioner then Tagliabu lost his mind because they didn't run out. That game never officially got finished. And from that became came the alcohol tube. Two per limit. They stopped selling alcohol in the third quarter. Aluminum only like porn beer like they got rid of all that. But I was actually at that game and it came up my feed. It was the anniversary of bottlegate, which I was. I was actually at the game in Cleveland when that happened. It was wild.
Tyler
If anybody's from Ohio, it's a terrible.
Jimmy
Mistake by the lake.
Tyler
Cleveland don't speak by the way to Ohio.
Jimmy
It's bad.
Mike
Make great Cleveland bad or Ohio is bad. My whole state.
Tyler
I am, I am out on Ohio.
Mike
I am out pretty much western Pennsylvania. Yeah.
Jimmy
Yeah. But they call Cleveland the mistake by the lake. They've had some.
Canine
You can actually no longer buy a plastic bottle even at an NBA game that had that comes with a cap on it. When I went there and I got a bottle of water, they took the cap off and they put it to the side. I'm like, dude, give me my damn cap.
Jimmy
They don't want you. Well, you can hide those pretty well. All right, canine, where do we find you tonight?
Canine
Tonight on the counterculture YouTube channel will be live 7:00 Eastern. Counterculture sports. Be there or on my Instagram.
Jimmy
He was actually absolutely on fire yesterday.
Canine
So did you listen to me is your account.
Jimmy
Man, I didn't listen.
Canine
I would have loved the year, man.
Jimmy
Yeah, you did get. You did. You did well in the. The packers game as well. You hit that dead on.
Canine
I know. I should have put that bet in myself. I just put one of the legs of it in. But I, I can't complain. I still won. So.
Jimmy
All right. So don't forget to tune in tonight. 7pm Counterculture YouTube for canine. And me and him will be back next Sunday at 11:45 on counterculture for the locks of the week. So we appreciate it, dude. Take care.
Mike
Later, bud.
Jimmy
He was he. If you bet on him, if you bet with him yesterday, you'd be. You'd be up very much.
Tyler
Do not fade canine.
Jimmy
No, he's actually. And I'll give it to him, he studies a lot of stuff, he jokes around a lot, but he is very knowledgeable when it comes to sports and the betting and the fantasy. He's usually up in our top of the fantasy football league. We're in and he went down the line yesterday. He had a three leg parlay in the packers game. The under a touchdown and who was going to win? He nailed that. He definitely called Sanders having a great game and the Browns winning. So I'm more of a heartbetter. Like I'll bet completely against the team because I'm like, I like them, but everybody wins. I'm like, like the Giants. Like, I'll pick the Giants every week. You know they're gonna get murdered.
Tyler
So I mean, I like Dan Campbell, I like the Lions, but I was like, man, I really want the Giants.
Jimmy
To set a record. They set a record. It was like their fifth game this year where they were up by 10 points and lost. They fired the defensive coordinator this morning. They fired their head coach last week. They are ram reeling and in trouble down in there.
Tyler
And they're gonna get some good draft picks, Rutherford.
Jimmy
Yeah, they are, but they are a team that has a lot of talent but finds a way to loot. Winston actually caught a touchdown pass yesterday. They ran a trick play to Jameis Winston. He caught a touchdown pass, first one of his entire career. And they scored two of their touchdowns on trick plays. And then when it mattered, they folded like. Like a young girl prom, they folded and that was that. So here we are.
Mike
We never did the recaps. There's not really much to recap other than the fact that we gave an extended invite to Tig via every social media platform and YouTube and he never reached out.
Jimmy
We were reached out to by somebody else. You're going to talk about that?
Mike
I said it on open mic.
Jimmy
Okay, well then you said it there, huh?
Mike
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But open. I'm telling people. That's the hidden gem.
Jimmy
Yeah. The meltdown between. Meltdown between me and Jimmy was actually featured in full detail on open mic. So if you're not following open mic.
Tyler
Counter culture, you really should. It's. It's the talking dead of the antihero broadcast.
Jimmy
Well, and it was designed and I think you're finally doing it now. What it was designed for is to make fun of the week in review. Talk some smack amongst the network.
Rob O'Neill
Yeah.
Jimmy
Justin actually shows up on open mic and does. Does some work. Can't get him here and he's counting his retirement days and he needs like a month's notice to fill in. But Justin does a great job. And that, that's what that show is.
Mike
Donut shop.
Jimmy
Donut shop.
Tyler
I. I watched the thing and Justin, I hope you got boys in the chat. I hope you got your shot glasses ready so I could.
Jimmy
What's funny is when I watch the clip. When I watch the clip, I can tell you I don't need a CVSA or lie detector test. I can tell you when my voice hits a certain. And it's not loud.
Mike
No, no.
Jimmy
It's an octave of like you've called it. Like it hits an octave and I'm like.
Tyler
It's sort of like one of those things that like a dog hears.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Tyler
Their ears kind of. That was what happened.
Jimmy
I'm being a dick. Like, I can tell. I can tell by the voice. So if like there's certain times you send me stuff, I'm like, no, dude, I'm joking.
Mike
Yeah.
Jimmy
I can honestly say that one. That was my. That was my.
Tyler
And don't worry, there's. There's a.
Rob O'Neill
We.
Tyler
We hugged it out, we talked it out, we got it done.
Mike
Yeah.
Tyler
And I mean, if you watch the.
Mike
Next one, I was like going to happen.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Mike
Functioning platoon about.
Jimmy
And the bottom line is it's all for the same mission. Everybody's trying to get contribute. Everybody's trying to get their time in to talk and contribute. And everybody is. It's not like somebody's sitting around not doing anything. It's everybody trying to help out and it was just a. I mean, it is what it is.
Tyler
You got, you got.
Jimmy
It was a good. It was a good clip.
Tyler
You got three dudes in the room.
Mike
You guys will be able one day to. You will. Somebody will get it on camera. One of my freakouts.
Jimmy
No, we just don't. I guess before I wasn't, I wasn't the co. Owner of the company. So. Yeah, I kind of walked my gr. It's coming because you have. Your meltdowns usually occur before the camera starts. You walk in the door and there's a. Something's not working. There's a light off and he's walking around. I kept walking 10 minutes before a show and the lights out and I can't. All I do is try to make this successful. And the light goes out and I'm. My whole day's ruined. It's like, that's usually what happens.
Bill O'Reilly
So.
Tyler
So, I mean, like, you know, Justin talked about it. You know, he was trying to walk through troubleshooting, and I wanted to. I was, like, yelling at my phone while Justin was saying, like, I've already told Tyler this three times, Justin.
Jimmy
Well, the funniest part is he doesn't really get mad. I've never seen Tyler mad mad. And I've been around him. Now December will be a year that we kind of got together on my first episode of Anti Hero. Yeah, I've never seen him mad, but there's like a. A level of like. Like, if something's not going right, like this morning, the humming, dude, the humming I could hear, and I'm like, here comes. Here comes. This is gonna be great. And it's like, it's never mad, but it's always, like, perfect timing right before. Ten minutes before this is that. And it's. It's hilarious. And then if I really want to piss him off, I just wait till.
Tyler
Out of everything.
Jimmy
No, I wait till night shift. And then he has, like, his third beer, and I'm like, well, you're drunk anyway. I'm not drunk. I have three beers. I'm not a drug with my wife. I love it. I wait till he gets about the third or fourth beer and something comes up. I'm like, you're just drunk. Anyway, that's it. I mean, like.
Tyler
I mean, like, just so everybody knows, like, I got a. I. I put myself on a moratorium of alcohol.
Mike
Alcohol. What? Moratorium? Yeah. You're just trying at this point. No, no, that's a common word.
Tyler
It's a.
Mike
It.
Tyler
It works in Scrabble. It's. It's a word in common use.
Jimmy
Tell us about the moratorium.
Mike
What happened?
Jimmy
Oh, what happened? What is it?
Tyler
A moratorium means, like, I'm not going to do that.
Jimmy
Yeah. But why. Why did you need such a strong word?
Mike
Oh.
Tyler
Oh, because it was just. Because it's strong alcohol.
Jimmy
That's why. So those who don't know, Jimmy had the Cat 6 cable going across the floor, running as a. A straw all the way. It was actually in the bottle of alcohol. I'm over here terminating.
Bill O'Reilly
Yeah.
Jimmy
You know, promise, guys. You know when you pump the coke at, like, the bar? Jimmy had the whole wire. We thought it was going to the Internet. That's why the signal was down. Jimmy was. Jimmy was filling his glass, and we had, like, 72 kilobyte Internet service going on. We wonder why we. We picked up the Cat 6 cable and rum and vodkas fell out of it. I was like, what is going on here?
Tyler
We got.
Jimmy
We gotta do that.
Rob O'Neill
Yeah, I got.
Jimmy
I.
Tyler
You know, I gotta. I get a little too sauced sometimes because I can't drink beer. Beer does nothing for me.
Jimmy
You gotta play that video, dude.
Mike
What?
Jimmy
You gotta get it ready. The warrior video, man, that you sent me. Oh.
Mike
It's not Facebook.
Jimmy
What is it? It's a. Dude. If we were joking, like, it's a.
Mike
It's a. It's a. A Boondock Saints. And it's like when that. When your veteran buddy has more than two drinks and he's like.
Bill O'Reilly
That'S.
Tyler
That's. That is so true.
Jimmy
Because I don't give her.
Mike
Facebook's not user friendly.
Jimmy
It's terrible.
Tyler
Yeah, man.
Jimmy
I can get it to Lewis if Lewis has time to play it.
Mike
Hold on.
Jimmy
Keep talking.
Mike
I could not. I have not drank liquor in like four and a half years because I. I was the same way. I was like, beer doesn't get me drunk. And then eventually I realized one day, through friends and just being an idiot, you don't have to drink out. Getting hammered doesn't have to be the goal of enjoying a beverage.
Jimmy
Yeah, I did the same thing.
Tyler
I mean, like. I mean, especially if you've been, you know, in the military. By the way, there's a rumor going around that the three of us never served, and that's why we're coming at Rob.
Jimmy
Like.
Tyler
But it's just so everybody knows, like. Can we clip this? I was in the army. I'm wearing a shirt, by the way. Nikki, this is for you. Army. Because nobody plays Navy.
Jimmy
I can bring my DDC14 in.
Tyler
Yeah. Who's Nikki?
Jimmy
I can bring my DD214.
Tyler
Yeah, I can bring mine in, too.
Jimmy
Mine shows a really cool badge, too. It's called Airborne.
Tyler
Yeah, Mine has a cib.
Jimmy
Oh, by nature, they. They put you on an airplane, you got an award.
Mike
They kick you the off. Yeah.
Jimmy
Mine shows an eib.
Mike
I got that. Right.
Jimmy
Earned it.
Mike
Okay.
Jimmy
I got an EIB too.
Mike
Okay. Oh, man. I don't have vib. I don't have any ib. I wasn't trying to be the best at being retarded. The smartest retard out there.
Tyler
Well, I. I mean, it was one of those, like. I don't know how they.
Mike
I can't see us. I'm. You're switching angles, right?
Canine
Yes.
Mike
Okay.
Tyler
Yeah. I mean, Like, EIB was like, not a game.
Jimmy
Is that really a rumor out there that we didn't serve?
Tyler
Yeah. So you'll see it in the chat, like underneath all the raw videos.
Mike
Comments.
Jimmy
Yeah.
Tyler
In the comments, like, these guys never even served. It's like, yeah, you know, like, you guys never even went to the Middle East. I'm like. And I. To one. And I was like, me and Tyler were in Iraq at the exact same time. Drink, boys, drink. We were there at the exact same time.
Mike
Yeah.
Tyler
And just. He was an 82nd guy and I was a 25th ID guy. So y' all can pack down a rat hole. I mean, all I care.
Jimmy
We're talking about, can we sue him for saying.
Tyler
That's a fair point. If Rob can sue us.
Jimmy
Yeah. I, you know, I, I don't have the combat. I didn't go to.
Clint
Com.
Jimmy
I was pre 9 11. I joined 96. 99.
Mike
I. I mean, he missed the Korean War by this much.
Jimmy
And that's, you know, and for somebody to say that sucks because that's actually of all the things besides having, you know, a good family, kids and stuff, like signing up to serve my country is one of the things I'm most proud of. Like, I chose to do that. There was a rumor.
Tyler
Oh, that was.
Wyatt
Right.
Jimmy
There was a rumor in my town because I've. I've come out now and started posting those that don't. I was in trouble for drugs and all kinds of stuff, and that's why I joined. I got forced.
Tyler
You were fish poaching.
Jimmy
I did. I did. I did catch a fish illegally, but I know I didn't. I joined because I got promised. I was told, hey, you go join the military for a few years and come back here, we'll hire you as a cop. I was like, well, sounds like a plan. And I went, dude.
Tyler
I mean, like, the, The. The amount of silliness that happens.
Mike
Hey, you know what? Somebody's got to provide content for the bottom feeders on YouTube. That's all I'm gonna say about it. That's all. I'm glad that you get your Google AdSense check for things that I say on the Internet.
Jimmy
Yeah, because that there's. There's entire pages and pages that have no original content.
Mike
Nothing.
Jimmy
And that's where I look at, like, obviously making money is important.
Tyler
We can't.
Jimmy
I don't want to be homeless, but I would rather be moderate and. And live comfortably doing my own thing with my own ideas in my own way versus countless hours of watching other people's content clipping, editing, and the. If you enjoy that money, enjoy it, dude. Like.
Bill O'Reilly
Like.
Mike
Oh, sorry, what'd you say?
Wyatt
That's.
Jimmy
Oh, I was about to say that's when you first pushed the mic away. Now we're in the middle of a conversation. This is Jimmy's meltdown. Jimmy's meltdown.
Tyler
Here we go.
Clint
That was a fire fight.
Tyler
That's gentle with his gun.
Jimmy
That's Jimmy's brain after, like, the straw. When the straw gets too much. We're not talking about enough war. This is a very serious topic. There's a fire right in my head. I need to get. He just pulled out a. We can't do that.
Tyler
We'll get a freaking YouTube strike.
Mike
But mostly what you were saying, Mike, is that it's just like, I want to create music, right? Do I want to be a cover band and get paid a lot of money, or do I. And. And some people are like, no, I want to write original music. I don't care about the money. I care about making content. I create about create. I care about creating something. And other people are like, I'm just not creative or original, but I can make money off of someone else's thing. Totally legitimate. Not saying they're stealing.
Tyler
Nope.
Mike
They're doing. They're a cover band or they're a YouTuber that doesn't really know or have any life experience. Experience or, you know, they. They require. They were. They rely on people like us. They really do.
Jimmy
Yeah. And it's.
Mike
It's.
Jimmy
It's. It's harder, obviously, way harder to be original.
Wyatt
And.
Jimmy
And it's way harder to put yourself out here every two. Twice a week and say. And talk and have, you know, new information. And it is. It's difficult, and it's. I guess it's much easier. I mean, we're stupid. But it's much easier to, like, you said, be a cover band and not write your own, because what you write a hundred songs, if you're lucky one goes anywhere, or you can be a.
Mike
Cover man and cover all 10.
Jimmy
And everybody's gonna. And everybody play that, play that, play that. And they're gonna. You're gonna, like, you know, the Keys.
Mike
You'll make money.
Jimmy
The Keys is very famous for that. Like, most of the guys in the Keys are. They play music in those dive bars down there. It's like a bunch of Jimmy Buffett. They make a lot of money, too, those guys I made. I got friendly with one dude I used to go every year. Not like that. In the Keys. I didn't get that friendly. I said it wrong. Down in Key West.
Tyler
Key West.
Jimmy
If you go to Key west, that entire Duvall street is nothing but dive bars with dudes that have moved there and make so much money doing drunk people throwing money in a jar. Yeah, they're amazing. Yeah, but they're, you know, they loop the song beforehand, then they got the background and they, and it's one man band and they do amazing work, but it's all cover artist work.
Mike
And they've made, they've made peace with the fact that they'll never be making good original music or they'll never famous.
Jimmy
They're just gonna be famous down the queue. And that's amazing. Hustle. But like you said, it's just, I mean.
Tyler
And for the record, my, my little brother who's about to be a cop is named.
Jimmy
You hated cops.
Mike
Your little brother's gonna be a cop?
Jimmy
Yeah. You didn't know that?
Mike
I think I did, actually.
Jimmy
Now I did not.
Tyler
Yeah, he's gonna be a cop in Oklahoma. He goes to the police academy next year.
Mike
Awesome. Oh, tell him he's making the dumbest decision of his life.
Tyler
Oh, I, I, I want to bring him in here just as like an intervention. All right. Here's some jaded cops.
Jimmy
Down here. He's good. Between us two, you're finished. Agency's gonna hate you.
Tyler
I have four sisters and three brothers.
Jimmy
Yeah, dog man.
Mike
Real quick, the merch is up. We're not going to go through the whole thing, but if you go to the antiherobroadcast.com and go to the merch tab store, we can go to the whole thing. Shop.
Jimmy
Shop.
Mike
I don't know if you guys know this about Lewis. He does whatever he does whatever the which I respect Lewis. I do respect that. I'm the same way. It's called odd. You have opposition defined disorder, and I do too.
Jimmy
So go to the tab and hit the shop on the, on the page there. If, if. There you go. There's my brilliant work.
Mike
God, that looks awesome. Mike.
Jimmy
I didn't design the website.
Tyler
Can we make the website a little Shirts we have.
Mike
Oh, bigger on the screen.
Jimmy
Yeah, you can swap it.
Mike
What in the name of doing, like three things?
Jimmy
I love it. This is the greatest show. So we have some shirts. Distractionary blows. We have and, and we're looking for in our Patreon everything. Guys with ideas. I can create a shirt. A sticker quickly.
Mike
Oh, no.
Tyler
It's been in the comments like three times. It's freaking Tyler with a Turban, and it says, Ben, Tyler.
Canine
You can do that.
Mike
Ben, Tyler, we're working on.
Jimmy
If you guys are willing to walk around with Tyler on your shirt, then you're braver than me, because I get a lot of ideas, and I'm like you. Nobody's gonna wear a shirt with 11 cuss words on it.
Mike
We have a tinfoil hat coming out. We have allegedly coming out. We have a couple designs. Natalie's working on all of them. Yeah, you can bring it down, Lewis, if you want. If you want.
Jimmy
Or you can leave that night shirt.
Tyler
That night shirt shift is still my favorite, though.
Jimmy
I like that. Forever anti hero. And I like hoodies, so I'm a hoodie person.
Tyler
We're gonna need some hoodies.
Mike
It's almost hoodie weather podcasts or broadcast. The whole anti hero theme is that it's a movement. It's not like. It's almost like multiple people can be Batman. It's still Batman. This. This white skull right here is. Is. Is a movement, and it's an idea. It's not one person.
Tyler
That's right. That's 100, right?
Mike
That being. It's a community now. It is a community on here, you guys. No one's even talking to us. They're talking to each other, which is fine.
Tyler
The. The guys need to. If you're not in the Patreon, you should be, because the Patreon is. Is really a community, and.
Mike
Oh, we were. We were on. Live on.
Tyler
Yeah.
Mike
For like, 45 minutes the other day.
Tyler
Yeah.
Mike
Mike didn't answer the phone.
Jimmy
I apologize.
Tyler
Yeah.
Jimmy
Did you end up doing it?
Mike
I did it for 45 minutes. It was awesome, dude. I got to know these guys. Like, I have a complex where I'm like, who the wants to hear me talk by myself? 45. I like. I'm like, I'm no one special. But what it does is it opens the door so they can all talk to each other, because without a live video stream with us.
Tyler
Yeah.
Mike
They can't engage either. They can engage in the general chat for sure, but it's not the same.
Tyler
I. I think we're gonna have to do.
Mike
Is.
Tyler
We're gonna have to make a discord.
Jimmy
Can I cook?
Tyler
Yes.
Jimmy
About something completely different that I forgot to cook on earlier.
Mike
I thought you meant cook some chicken nuggies.
Jimmy
No, I'm starving. I'm on a diet, if you guys don't know. I'm like, this is.
Tyler
I'm about to order a gallon.
Jimmy
I'm drinking two a day, so. A gallon. This is All. It's like Kool Aid. No, it's. It's a. Just basically salt water. It's, like, bad. So it's good supplements. Yeah, but it's very. It's not sugary. There's no sugar. It's just salt and water and it tastes terrible. But like anything else, I get chunky. I get to eating. Driving over here, eating donuts from Circle K and all that stuff. And I got. I gain weight. I got a Cruise on the 19th. So I'm like, this is. This is a miserable mic, drinking water. I had yogurt for breakfast. I'm not eating. We're not going to Huey Magoo's. No more like, what are we going to do right now? So. But I wanted to say something. When I talked about the death earlier and, you know, passing away, the Debbie being killed. There's a guy named Dennis Michael Lynch. Dennis Michael lynch is a political activist. Political guy. He ran for. He's actually on the ticket to run for the Republican nomination for president back in 2016. He has a podcast and a platform. He's got a huge following on Facebook. And I wasn't going to say anything if somebody just reminded me, so I'm going to. He's made two posts now. Our agency's in a budget crisis. The first post he made was when Charlie Kirk died. And he used Charlie Kirk's death to push the narrative that the sheriff is underfunded and we need more money. And he brought Charlie Kirk's death into. I think that's a piece of move. He did it again with the dead deputy.
Mike
Already.
Jimmy
Already, man, already. I posted on my story on Copville and I. I said, this dude is. And I hope he watches. We can go to war, too. This guy's got a huge following. But you don't use another human being's death to push any agenda. There is a budget issue. She did not. She was not killed because of a budget issue. There's specific factors that go into that call. There's incident. There's always going to be something. It wasn't due to underfunding. And I actually know more that I'm going to cover because it pisses me off about that call. But it was not a budget issue. But this is twice now that this guy has used a death of a person to push the sheriff's agenda and budget. And that is a chicken, cowardly, cowardly piece of movement by you, Dennis Michael lynch, to use another human being's death to post on your social media and push for a budget.
Mike
Yes.
Tyler
Not even in the ground.
Jimmy
Not even in the ground. And. And yes, there are. We. Do cops need more money? Yes. Sometimes. It's the budgeting of the sheriff as well that caused those problems. And I'm not going to go down that political aisle, but leave dead cops out of your mouth for people that knew her and sat next to her and listened to her family struggles throughout the years and we talked to door to door, do not use her name to push a political agenda. That's cowardly and it sucks that you would do that. That's all I got to say.
Mike
Let's go to a commercial break. Guys, go support Jason from Vengeance. Small business, but awesome. And he worldwide distribution. Roll that footage. Over a century ago in 1910, the Flexner Report funded by John D. Rockefeller and the Carnegie foundation re engineered medical education from a holistic whole body approach which appropriately treated the body as an interconnected system to a compartmentalized approach. Under the guise of specialized medicine. They shut down or consolidated medical schools, marginalized naturopathic, homeopathic and chiropractic medicine, replacing them with symptom management and synthetic drugs. Allopathy is a marketing strategy rooted in fear and manipulated science. This philosophy carried into veterinary medicine resulting in over vaccination, unnecessary surgeries and manufactured food just like they did for people. They call it care, but it's predatory and based in profitability. The truth, toxicity, compromised immunity and chronic inflammation. They're not fate, they're engineered and so is your power to undo them. We built three targeted formulas to return the body to homeostasis for pets and people to detox, defend and restore. We are the correction to decades of corruption. We are vengeance. Longest commercial ever but also brought to you by Flatline Fiber Company. Go to flatlinefiberco.com use promo code ANTIHERO15 say 15 on their rifle, slings, IFAX dump pouches and baseline bags made in America with a lifetime warranty. They make gear you can trust.

Jimmy
Go to violent provisions.com use code anti hero for 15 off. I have talking points now because my co host shared them with me.
Mike
I just wanted to sabotage you first.
Jimmy

They do hoodies, they do shirts, hats, stickers and they are running a pre order November 28th to December 5th so check out violent provisions.com they also have a Instagram violent provisions. And great supporters of ours use code antihero for 15 off.
Mike
No, it's nice. Is it antihero?
Bill O'Reilly
Yep.
Mike
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.
Jimmy
Sorry, go ahead.
Mike
No, my bad, my bad.
Clint
Done that.
Mike
So that means too, by the way.
Jimmy
If you notice, he's got a paper over there for all his. And then he's like, all right, Mike Brown provision. And I'm like, great dudes. Really cool. Awesome. They are great dudes. Their products are really, really cool.
Mike
We're gonna have to throw Jimmy in the mix here.
Tyler
I've been saying, like, I bet you Jimmy nailed it.
Mike
I bet he's just got that, that.
Jimmy
I, I better than me.
Tyler
I can get that voice going. You know, I can get that, you know, go to.
Jimmy
I got a good one.
Tyler
Yeah.
Jimmy
When we launched our own alcohol.
Mike
Jimmy, drink four of these.
Jimmy
And what's going to be really fun.
Mike
Yeah.
Tyler
Like, like, Jimmy, Jimmy, why do you not slur? Like, how come.
Jimmy
What's the game?
Tyler
Warhammer 40,000, baby.
Mike
We're gonna get you. Once we start expanding the show a little bit, we're gonna get you a segment on Warhammer. Oh, yeah.
Tyler
I, I, I cannot wait.
Mike
We're gonna see if the chat likes it.
Jimmy
Are we ready for Clint yet? You want to do what? You want to wrap?
Mike
What's, what's, what's, what's it?
Jimmy
Chicago and Chicago. The fire in Chicago.
Tyler
Yeah, the fire in Chicago.
Jimmy
So bring up the. Pick the JPEG one first. That one. So we covered this on several shows. He's setting a person on fire. So this kind of went almost under the radar. It was talked about very briefly in the news, and it was gone. This is a guy with, like, 40 arrests over his lifetime. He was charged for terrorism for this incident. But this is like, this is becoming a theme. Go ahead and pick up. This is the victim. Go ahead and pull the other picture up. That's the victim.
Mike
Are you kidding me? That was one of her profile pictures.
Jimmy
That's the victim.
Mike
Are we supposed to make.
Jimmy
No, she's not dead.
Mike
We can make fun of her.
Jimmy
I don't know if she's dead or not.
Mike
No, she's not.
Jimmy
You can survive, okay? But here's the thing.
Mike
It works if your profile picture works.
Jimmy
If there was a. It hadn't happened yet. If there was a black female set on fire by a white male. I don't know that this country survives.
Tyler
I don't think.
Jimmy
I don't think this country survives. It surely would not be on the news. It's not. That is not on the news that was in and out, gone, done. Then you had the Ukraine girl in Charlotte. That was. That did stay in the news quite a little bit. That was.
Mike
But they learned we can't let the stain.
Jimmy
Similar victim, white female, very petite. Blackmail suspect. Oh, I got one other thing. And it would not. This country would be done.
Tyler
The country would be.
Jimmy
Let's keep talking. I'm gonna send Louis something I want him to bring up in a minute, but you guys go ahead.
Mike
So Nick Nickel Morgan with a drive by Super Chat.
Jimmy
Have name is Nicole.
Tyler
You freaking Philistine.
Mike
I said Nicole.
Tyler
You said Nickel.
Jimmy
Nickel.
Mike
I said nickel. No, I didn't. My wife makes fun of the way I say.
Jimmy
I said nickel. Cole. Okay.
Mike
Cole, drive by Super Chat. Have a great day, everyone. Thank you, Nicole.
Jimmy
Thank you.
Mike
See, it sounds like I'm saying nickel, but I said Nicole. Well, Tig. No, we already talked about. He just didn't never hit us up.
Tyler
Yeah, he just never hit us up.
Mike
Okay.
Jimmy
Commented on his Facebook. I don't know if he spotted.
Tyler
I. I kind of want to reach out to him again. My Ukraine updates are going to be rather long and involved, and I have. Go for it. Oh, well, I want. I won't. It's mine.
Mike
I think he's still. Are you still prepping?
Jimmy
I sent it.
Tyler
Yeah.
Jimmy
So you want to cover that real quick? Because I think you're gonna like this.
Mike
All right, well, real quick. That's.
Tyler
We know that guy.
Jimmy
There's an update.
Mike
What's an update?
Jimmy
To the story.
Mike
To the what story?
Jimmy
This story. So Derek Chauvin's attorneys, your favorite guy, filed a motion because they want it made more known that he was taught the death. Go ahead. He was taught the technique.
Mike
Right.
Jimmy
Does that change it for you?
Mike
Was it not okay.
Jimmy
But he was. But now, do you think that has any bearing on the case?
Mike
Yes.
Jimmy
So you think that just because he was trained to put his to do that it changes the outcome of the case?
Mike
Yeah, tremendously. He shouldn't even be imprisoned in the first place. You agree manslaughter, maybe.
Jimmy
I agree it should have been tried.
Mike
We don't go manslaughter.
Jimmy
He should have been charged with murder.
Canine
No, murder.
Jimmy
He wouldn't have been charged with murder. But manslaughter, but.
Mike
Which means he's. If that. If that will. He could be out of prison.
Tyler
Well, look, let me ask a question. If he could have articulated why to kill him with a gun, we wouldn't even be having this conversation. It. The whole problem with the video was that the optics were Bad.
Jimmy
The optics weren't bad. The whole, the whole incident was bad. And the reason I don't think this is anything and they're making a big deal about it. Reason I don't personally think it's any news is regardless if he was trained in that or not, because I'm trained to tase people. I'm trained to shoot people. I can't shoot somebody 73 times because they keep getting back up unarmed and just go, oh, I'm gonna shoot him again. He won't listen or I can't taste somebody 73 times. My problem with it from the day.
Mike
What are you shooting?
Jimmy
My problem with it is he a reasonable person after a human being underneath their knee and didn't feel them resisting or moving or breathing anymore. A reasonable person after a few minutes, even less, I think, but would check on them to go, this is strange. This guy's not even moving anymore. Eight minute and a half minutes, nine minutes with his. In that position is where I was.
Mike
How long was it where he went limp? Do we know that?
Jimmy
I don't know, but it was eight. It doesn't matter.
Mike
It does matter. What if he was only limp for 30 seconds?
Tyler
I mean he wasn't one for 30 seconds first, but.
Jimmy
Okay, you're right. But it's, it's too long. That's my problem. I don't think that changed anything. I don't mind the technique. I don't mind the technique. I don't mind that he used it. My problem is a reason what the jury is told, would a reasonable person stay in that position for that long? And I still think, you know what.
Mike
The problem is is that honestly, the way, the way, the optics, the way the country is looking at this, is that if you're driving recklessly and you whack and kill a dog, if you kill the Robinson's beautiful golden retriever, we're gonna hate you. You kill a three legged mutt that's bitten seven people, no one's gonna care.
Jimmy
That's Mike Would. I almost hit a coyote other night on the way home. That was in the road and I felt terrible.
Mike
It's a liberal media that cares about.
Tyler
Are we calling George Floyd the, the beautiful perfect golden retriever?
Mike
Because.
Tyler
I mean, like I'm trying to understand.
Mike
That maybe he's not the be golden retriever from the Robins.
Jimmy
He's not, but he still doesn't deserve to die. I mean he was a.
Mike
It wasn't intentional. So the way if you're driving, it was driving. Mike is Derek Chauvin driving. Mike hits a dog. Story stops there.
Tyler
No, right?
Mike
No, no, no Stories up now. We, we go one of two ways. It's the Robinson's beautiful little golden retriever that the neighborhood loves. Mike's in trouble. Mike's gonna get tomatoes thrown at him. Everyone's gonna hate Mike. Ori hits the three legged, disgusting mutt dog that has bitten everybody and no one likes. Do you think, do you think. Let me finish. Do you think the community is gonna care at all about. Do you think they're gonna care the same?
Jimmy
No, no, of course, but now, now what Derek Chauvin did was he backed over the dog a second half, he hit the dog and that nobody would have cared. And then he went. And then he parked on top of the dog for nine minutes and everybody watched the dog sitting under the tire going, man, that's not a good place to position that car tire. We should probably move this car. And Derek Chauvin said, no, I'm in fear.
Tyler
I got people everywhere.
Jimmy
I mean, I'm just gonna sit here on top of them and then I'm gonna sit on top of that homeless guy there.
Mike
So then he got out and kneeled on the dog.
Jimmy
So the difference is that if he would have just.
Tyler
If he was a dog catcher, the dog didn't move.
Jimmy
I'll give him that.
Tyler
Jesus Christ.
Mike
I love this topic.
Jimmy
And that's why I liked it, because it's new information. They just filed this motion last week. They want the manual.
Mike
Can we have your co owner. Can we have a free Derek Chauvin T shirt? No, no, no. Is that still not. Not yet. Even though he's a free man or he's a wrongly, wrongly incarcerated man?
Jimmy
No, we can't do that.
Mike
What the country was founded on is due process.
Jimmy
He was found guilty.
Tyler
I mean, it's, it's, you know, Mike is. I, I've never been a cop, so I can't. I can't really say anything about, like.
Mike
We'Ve got three people. I guarantee you they have not. Oh, it's two people. They probably haven't bought a shirt yet. But I guarantee you they said, I want it. Take my money, do it.
Jimmy
Free Derek show.
Mike
I guarantee you to fly off the shelves, dude.
Jimmy
So our radio days are gone. What are we doing? We venture on stuff.
Mike
What are we doing?
Jimmy
This is Bill O'Reilly. The same network that tried to lie about Rob O' Neill has now made a shirt that said Free Derek Chauvin. I wrote a book about this and it is horrendous and the book doesn't lie.
Mike
Why you guys stop me?
Tyler
Dude, dude, we're trying to get on.
Clint
The radio, by the way.
Mike
I don't care about this. I'll make it. And the radio station is gonna be like, don't even ever talk about that.
Tyler
There's more dust covering me than there is the books that are in the bookstore right now that I. My old 81 year old ass, my saggy ball.
Jimmy
I'm gonna make free Derek Chauvin. There's be an asterisk that says even though he's guilty. Small fun. Even though he's guilty. All right, what are we doing?
Mike
Are we doing serious stuff yet? We got radio stuff. We gotta go back to the radio.
Jimmy
Clint's waiting in the wings too.
Mike
All right, all right, all right. You brought that Ukraine update. Unfortunately, our Ukrainian correspondent Wyatt has not entered the thing. I don't know if he's KIA over there, but. But we will go ahead without him.
Clint
We had.
Tyler
I. I had a long phone conversation with Crusader, our other.
Mike
Which Crusader?
Tyler
The one that begins. Yeah, yeah, not that. Crusades. Come on, man. So had a. Had a long conversation with him about what was going on in Ukraine because obviously, believe it or not, we've got a pretty big following over there in Ukraine and their military and Lewis put the picture up.
Jimmy
Yeah, you did. He flashed it.
Tyler
No Ukraine update.
Mike
Good job. I liked it. Just like that. Perfect. That's a perfect size. All right, so we're like a news station. We're like Bill O'Reilly.
Tyler
Yeah.
Mike
He just pissed out. I've only been doing this three years and I'm better than he is.
Tyler
Oh, my God.
Mike
All right, go ahead.
Tyler
So here's the first of all. The reason why we were seeing a lot of videos of, like, guys running around in two and three man teams.
Mike
Yeah.
Tyler
Is because of the amount of tactical dispersion that they have to have.
Mike
What's that mean?
Tyler
Version you were infantryman.
Jimmy
Yeah, I like it. That means, like, you have to be very dispersed tactically.
Mike
Tactically, I think we got rid of that.
Jimmy
That's why we smoked you guys.
Tyler
So funny you bring that up. Because one of the. So the biggest problem that they're.
Jimmy
First of all.
Mike
Well, this was wild. Oh, what. All right, so why.
Canine
We're.
Mike
We're gonna watch back.
Jimmy
We're gonna bring you.
Mike
We're gonna. We're gonna let Jimmy cook on some stuff that he learned, and then we're gonna get your take on it.
Tyler
All right. So from what the other guy was telling me, Crusader, he basically Said like there's only 15 guys or there's only one set of nods per 15 guys over on the Russian side.
Mike
So that sucks.
Tyler
That does suck.
Mike
No, no. Night op.
Clint
No.
Tyler
So that's why you've seeing this return to like World War II and Vietnam tactics like fire a flare, kill everything that we see.
Mike
What's the. It was the 120. What's the round that shoots up in the sky?
Tyler
Yeah, that's a parachute. Flares.
Mike
Yeah, that's.
Tyler
Yeah, they're dropping, they're dropping parachute flares because nobody's got nods. If Ukraine needs anything, it's not at 4s we got.
Mike
We need not bum Louisiana SWAT teams running around with. I never use them, by the way.
Tyler
Yeah, hey, SWAT teams, you don't need the HK416. Okay, donate your nods to you to the Ukrainian infantry. They need them. So they have to spread themselves out. There's basically like a big like almost kilometer wide no man's land. And then you've got this really hard forward line of troops where. Main line of resistance with trenches and everything else, but because of the drones and the, the fiber optic drones, they, they're running around in like twos and threes, infiltrating, you know, having little gunfights, running away and so prepare to drink, boys. Prepare to drink. Snipers. Snipers are running around rampant behind the forward line of troops. They're out there doing way cool scout sniper stuff like, hey, we noticed that this is a MSR main supply route for the enemy. Go ahead and sit up in this little area right here. And then when you, you know, Russian, 15 Russian guys have gone down that road, no problem. And then the snipers have been sitting there for a while and they're like.
Mike
That guy looks important, so they'll let him go.
Jimmy
Oh yeah.
Tyler
And then you just never know when you're gonna get sniped. Sniper. Yes, Sniper. So it's probably going to be a pretty quiet front. Going to see a lot of probing actions. The Ukrainians believe that the, the Russians are not going to attack during the winter. They're going to wait until spring. And the Ukrainians have been pretty good. They can't, they don't have the mass to do like a, like a battalion, a brigade level assault. So what they're doing is they're just letting the Russians come at them, funneling them into kill boxes, slaughtering them wholesale, and then backing up.
Mike
All right, what is your take on all this? Obviously we don't, we are getting just information and obviously people have different experiences over there. But. What. Thank you for coming on. I hope you're safe. By the way, I'm.
Wyatt
Can you hear me? Yeah, I'm a few hundred kilometers from the front right now. I'm transferring units driving all day. Someone teach Tyler how to count time zones. But also, Mike, I really am sorry to hear about what happened this morning. There's nothing I can say to make it better other than you're not alone in this.
Jimmy
Thank you.
Wyatt
Thank you for having me back on. I was halfway through writing an apology for last week's disaster audio issues and it turns out downing half a can of Slavic 4 loco on an empty stomach to start things out was a bottle bad idea.
Tyler
We know all about that.
Wyatt
But if my honest inputs are enough to scare away the unserious people.
Clint
Good.
Wyatt
You guys hate the dancing cops. I hate the tick tock troops. But to answer your question, everything Jimmy just said is quite accurate. Night vision, no joke. We've bought on the surplus market the 1970s starlight scopes on the AK. We've dug up the old 1950s ones with the transformer attached to them and rewired them.
Mike
Those are.
Wyatt
Those are hard to get.
Canine
Here.
Wyatt
Good nods. They get lost, destroyed, damaged just so frequently.
Mike
How would they get lost? I would think that's the most sensitive items. Even more than primary weapon systems if you don't have any.
Wyatt
Item sensitivity is not a slothic thing.
Canine
They're.
Wyatt
They're not good about it on your rucksack and you know you're running for your life. Well, stuff does get lost, but yeah, I'm with you.
Mike
That.
Wyatt
That should be on you. They also did shrapnel seek them. It seeks your night vision and just wrecks it up. But a slight note on the front, there was some weather this past week, heavy rain and heavy fog and the Russians were able to mount a fairly successful armor supported assault. We hadn't seen that in quite a while. Tanks rolling up tree lines, firing into them. Because your drones, they. They can't fly in the rain and they can't see through the fog. Yes. But a quick note regarding last week. So some people read, some friends reached out to me from some international units saying, hey, good stuff. Can you put a little bit of context on the infantry only thing, and this is coming from the 3rd Assault Brigades International Battalion and the National Guards 12th Brigade International Battalion.
Mike
I was gonna say there was some people in the comments, but I call them the well, actually people because they'll take one outlier and try to say that one whole mass information is wrong and then you have to go. Okay, I'm sorry, yes. But I'm talking generalities.
Wyatt
We're stuck painting with broad brushes here and it happens. Medics or EOD guys, yeah, they can go do whatever they want. But your average one and done veteran random mls. There's a big. There has always been a big problem of people quitting. Foreigners can quit the army here. So if you go to one of these units, they want to make sure you're serious. And they said they do need mechanics, they do need drone pilots. But you are going to be trained, deployed and posted out as a rifleman to make sure you're serious about being here. You're not just going to take the investment in rock. So I did have to throw that out there. And those are both good units I've attached to them. I know the guys might have touched tips once or twice.
Tyler
We cuddled.
Wyatt
It got cold.
Jimmy
It got cold.
Wyatt
And saw your video on the live on Thursday.
Mike
Yeah, I'm sorry, the video quality sucked. It looked like it was probably shot on the front lines of Ukraine, but no video look better there.
Wyatt
Quality was. The quality was good enough that I recognized the intersection.
Mike
Oh, okay.
Wyatt
That was done by.
Mike
Today.
Wyatt
I'm sorry, Go ahead.
Mike
No, I'm saying I'm gonna drop that clip today actually. But we clipped it into a. A short or real. But I.
Wyatt
And threw anti tank mines into the windows and just blew the building.
Mike
It's the Slavic JD So Mike was kind of flabbergasted at a big word. Although. Although it's. It could be a strategic point. I think he was kind of just overall saying like that's a blown up building that is literally useless now forever. But they were both and Jimmy mentioned that for according to his information it was passed back and like it was. It was passed back and forth four times. And I'm just curious like why. Why fight in those rubber rubble like strewn. Yeah, it's insane to me.
Wyatt
Well, is a very strategic city for the. During the Harkiv counter offensive our brigade's actual objective was you have to take K. And the unit that did that was the sso the proper noun Special Forces of Ukraine. Hard as nail dudes. They started taking foreigners this year. So if that got your blood pumping there's a how to guide on their. Their Twitter for you. But they said I recognized that intersection because we liberated that September of 22 when Russia came in. They wanted to do the Donetsk, Luhansk and Harkiv's people's republics, you know, breakaway nations and they'll vote to join Russia. When they failed to take Kharkiv, Kupiansk became the capital of this fake country. And that building they were in, that was the presidential office.
Tyler
That's why they were fighting. He's got pictures of it that he sent me. I just didn't want to put them out on the Internet because I don't want to. I don't want anything tracing back to you, bro.
Jimmy
Have you, like, some of the headlines here this morning and late last night were that Marco Rubio talked about a possible peace plan. Have you guys heard anything about, like, that happening? There was a Geneva talk, I guess, where Rubio and they said that Ukraine was on board, they were trying to get Russia. Does that make it down to your level when they have those significant peace talks?
Wyatt
Yeah, we.
Tyler
We heard.
Jimmy
Okay, and that's you guys. You probably heard a bunch of before, right? Is that kind of how you guys look at it?
Wyatt
Yes. We do pay attention, though. Every time they do this, we look at it, it's always the same list of demands. It's a full capitulation and surrender. They'll add or remove two or three points to make it look different. But this came out on Friday. President Trump has demanded that we surrender on Thursday on Thanksgiving. It's gonna make. Make a great press conference forum. Wait, surrender to Russia. That's what it is. Give up, don't escoblast the entire Donbass, recognize it as Russia. The areas in Zaporizhzhia and Kherson will be frozen and be occupied, controlled by Russia on the Ukraine side of the border. A reduction, a permanent reduction of the army by half. Never join NATO, never have nukes.
Mike
Is Ukraine gonna do this?
Jimmy
No.
Mike
I know you can't speak on behalf of all of Ukraine, but does it sound like Ukraine, Ukraine is considering this?
Wyatt
No one's on board with this. No one is on board. I'm curious as to what threats are being made behind closed doors because of just how serious they're taking this. When this came out, everybody in the Ukraine government jumped up, stood to, yes, we're going to Geneva. Yes, we are sorting this out right now. It was a much different tone than previously. Some cases, what they're doing behind closed doors.
Clint
What.
Tyler
What they're basically doing is they would gut Ukraine's ability to be a country.
Mike
It would.
Tyler
It would gut their gdp, it would gut their power generation. It would kill them, it would kill the country, and then it would just. Russia wouldn't have to fire a shot that could just Swallow.
Jimmy
I can't imagine trust from the Ukraine standpoint, trusting Russia enough to even surrender that they're not just going to wipe everybody out. I. I'm like. I would be like, at this point.
Tyler
We'Ve been fighting for three years. We're doing it.
Jimmy
Yeah, whatever the other obvious terrible stipulations are in that agreement, the one that would be like, you want me to walk over there and just give up? Like they're going to treat us humanely and not. That's a tough one. That's a tough one.
Wyatt
Yeah. They'll just.
Clint
They.
Wyatt
We already know they'll reinvade. They did it to Georgia. They promised not to invade Georgia a second time.
Tyler
They did.
Wyatt
They promised not to invade Chechnya. Second time.
Clint
They did.
Wyatt
They promised not to invade Ukraine a second and third time. They did.
Mike
You can't trust Putin. Hey, so why. What, What. What time is it right. Right now?
Wyatt
It is currently 1944.
Mike
Okay, my bad. I thought there was. We were doing.
Jimmy
I knew.
Mike
You said you were. Okay, that's my bad.
Jimmy
We.
Mike
We. When we do this in the future, I want to try to bring you on about an hour into the show, whatever that is. So if we start at 10am Eastern Standard Time, it'll be 11 hour time. So whatever that is for you, that's my bad. I up. That I up. Sending a link to canine. That's all my bad.
Jimmy
Fire.
Mike
Yeah, fire. But wow. We're gonna get out of here, dude. You have anything else before we see you again next week?
Clint
Oh.
Wyatt
I'll keep it real quick. 90 second funny story because you guys love your fun stories. City's mostly liberated. Our unit had to move to another position. This is before FPVs messed everything up. So we're piled into pickups and vans hanging off the side of SUVs and everyone's wearing black balaclavas because of dust and wind driving the residents that are lining the streets clapping, thanking us. They were really happy. One dude, stroke of genius, raises his rifle in the air. Everyone joins in. A week later, it was reported by Russian media. Russian intelligence has confirmed the Ukrainian government has recruited ISIS militants.
Tyler
Hey, man. CC Conservative Chocolate wants to know what. What brand is or what flavor of C4 you like.
Mike
Yeah, does the Ukrainian army need any C4 because Jimmy's got a whole case or rip its.
Wyatt
I don't think you can ship those by air mail because they're carbonated canned beverages.
Mike
Legally. Legally.
Tyler
I mean, we can bring a Burger King, but we can't bring sodas.
Mike
For me, we're gonna get out of here. We gotta wrap up the show. Thanks so much and we will see you next Wednesday. Assuming that you are able. Are you going to be in that thing that you talked about where you might not be available?
Wyatt
I will pre record something if I can and I'll send it to Jimmy.
Tyler
Okay, let's go.
Mike
All right, Sounds good, man. Thank you so much. Stay safe out there. Dude.
Wyatt
Katie deserved it.
Canine
Jimmy.
Wyatt
Katie deserved it.
Jimmy
You real quick, pull up that picture. This is a Memphis. Memphis, Tennessee entry, SWAT entry or some type of. So here you have that female in the back there with her gun pointed in a very suspicious direction. Is it down right at the back of the. Straight at the back of the guy.
Tyler
In front of her?
Jimmy
If you look at it close, she's pointing directly at the guy in front of her. And I had a bunch of comments that this is why the feds need to come into Memphis. They say Memphis is an absolute disaster.
Tyler
First of all, look at, look at how. Look at that. That like, grip on the pistol.
Jimmy
Well, she's got an optic on it though, so she's really cool. She's got a red dot. I mean like, but I mean that is in a stack at a fugitive, some type of fugitive task force.
Tyler
If she pulls out the door, she's.
Jimmy
Gonna shoot him in the back.
Tyler
If she pulls the trigger on that, not only is she shooting or. Or she's just gonna induce a malfunction.
Mike
Now if somebody's gonna say, could they argue and I'm just playing devil's advocate.
Jimmy
Like, Michael, you can remove it.
Mike
Is she possibly standing to the left of the guy?
Jimmy
If you look at the whole picture in the stack, they're at a door. It's pointed right at the door. It's bad. Okay. And they posted on their Facebook page.
Mike
Idiots. All right, is that we bring real quick before we bring on anybody else we have got to do. First off, I'm gonna put it in the Patreon. So if you don't right now, if you don't do it, I haven't created the link for it yet, but we are giving away a tack light. This is a personal light. Very good light, 350 light, brand new. It's not a weapons mounted light, but it is a personal light we will be giving away along with hats that T shirts, stickers, patches, stuff like that. So go. I will put that up in Patreon today and go in and sign up like usual and we'll do the drawing on Wednesday. And then there's our charity Slash Nonprofit of the week. Go ahead and pull that up, Lewis. It's called Everything Everything. Life Savings foundation, they reached out to us because they are doing some work in Jamaica. We have A D Day DC3 and several aircraft. You know, if there's someone that's willing to speak, we really need help raising relief for this disaster. They reached out to us. We told them.
Tyler
Whoa.
Mike
Nice. Lewis, did you do that on your own?
Clint
No, I just found it.
Mike
Okay. What?
Jimmy
One second.
Mike
Yeah, that's good. And then what they are, they are current needs for Jamaica relief efforts. Cash donations to keep planes running and volunteers fed medical and food supplies delivered. Listen, if you got five bucks. We say it all the time. We donate. You know, obviously, you can't. People can't donate a ton of money. You'd say, why Jamaica? Why not you? It does. These people reached out to us. They're trying to raise money. The least we could do is donate a little ourselves and spread the word. So if you got a cut, spare couple bucks, Everything. Everything. Life Saving foundation is the ones out there helping out. So give them. At least give them a follow.
Jimmy
You can hit that QR code there on the screen.
Mike
Oh, yeah, yeah. You can take a picture. Take a picture of our screen or take a picture of this. Like a screenshot. Hold the thumb down. Hold your thumb down on it. It will take you.
Jimmy
Lewis is what has what we would call a fresh fade, too. That character.
Mike
Dude, you do. You look like you're buying boot camp. Put your foot together on you, Louis.
Tyler
Yeah, man.
Jimmy
Look at that. Fresh. Turn it aside. Turn aside. Look at that lineup. Look at that lineup. Fresh. Fresh. That's Mr. Nine and a half seconds so far. Rubik's Cube. If you don't watch on. On the night Night Shift show, Lewis gets out at the last five minutes and we. He tries to break his record. So far, his record is 9.3, I think so. 9.3 on the. On the screen. He says he's got it.
Mike
That's recorded, right?
Jimmy
He says he's done it. Five and a half, right? 5.01. 5.01. But we haven't seen it yet. But we're getting there. We're getting there, and I'm gonna give you guys 30 seconds. We got Clint on the line for a story. He says it's gonna be a quick one because we're near the end of the show.
Mike
Somebody sent me a pit bull with a ski mask.
Jimmy
I got it, too. I got it, too.
Mike
Mr. Mr. 22 Core.
Jimmy
Yeah, he can send it to me as well, all right. Get your. Clint, time's up.
Mike
Oh, that's funny.
Jimmy
All right.
Clint
Clint, can you hear me?
Mike
You're on, Clint. I want to eat. I'm hungry. Nine minutes.
Jimmy
Go.
Clint
Hey, good afternoon, fellas. All right, I got a quick one. Mike says I got five minutes. All right. So back when I was a recruiter, I just came off my, my first deployment to Iraq and I was a recruiter. I'd maybe been maybe about two years into it, and I, I met this boy up in a town called Jerome in Arizona. Jerome is a really cool town. It's, it's up from, it's not quite at Flagstaff, it's a little bit below that, but it's, it's at one mile up. So it's, it's up there, it's high. And that's where the lead singer of to lives and he owns a winery. So me and my wife used to go up there and hang out. But I, I met this, this boy in town. He was on a bicycle and he was in good shape. And I, and I rolled up on him in the gov. And I hit him at the gas station. I said, and I started talking to him and he, I said, you know, where are you from? Whatever. And he said, well, I'm from California. I said, well, how'd you get here? He said, well, I rode this bicycle. I was like, I got a job for you. So I talked him into to joining the army and it was pretty quick. He, he went down to the maps. He, he did the, the pre test and went down, took the asvab. And he, he was a Jimmy, so he was a 128 GT score. You just got to explain more stuff to him. You know, 115 is the sweet spot. 115 sweet spot. That, that, that's Delta Force right there.
Mike
Anything over 115, they're like, they're like Asperger's. They're smart.
Clint
Yes, definitely. It was before it was diagnosed. You're on the spectrum.
Jimmy
I was low, so I was real low.
Clint
All right, so anyways, I, I put this joker in and he, he joined. He did everything. It was easy. He, he was smart. He was, I mean, he was really fit from the get go. He rode a bicycle. Bicycle from California to Arizona in the mountains. So he wanted to fly back to his home state of California to spend a month or two with his mom before he shipped out. And my station commander wouldn't. He, they were just not hearing him flying out of California. Cause the recruiters down there they wouldn't care about shifting him. So if he fell through, they would just affect us. So my boss said he's got to fly back to Arizona to ship out. And so this, this kid flew back, back from California and to Arizona and I went down to pick him up in the airport. Not, I, I lived about two and a half hours away from the airport. So I drove down there to pick him up and we're running back up the mountain in the Gove. And I mean I, I, I had to hit him fast cause he was towards the end of the month. So I had to really, really put, put the, the gas on him initially. So while we're driving up the mountain after he'd already joined, he's ready to ship the basic train and I'm talking to him to figure out who he is. And the big thing they say in recruiting is you recruit in your own image. So it, you know, if you're, if you're outlaw, you recruit outlaws. You know, if you're a, a nerd, you, you, you generally get nerds and so on. So I'm riding up the mountain and I'm talking to this kid and I got him 40 contract to be a ranger. And so we're driving up the mountain and I mean he's fit, but he's small. He's a small dude. He's, he's probably 5 6, but he's, he's wiry and he's, he's, he's a little jacked. And we're coming up the mountain and I'm talking to him like, so what are you into, man? He said, well, he said if I'm, by being completely honest with you, I'm into singing and dancing and performing in front of a large crowd. And I said, you're gonna make the perfect ranger. You're gonna make the perfect ranger. He said, I said, what, what exactly what, what's your performance? What are you into? He said, well, I like to do a little thing called Ragtime. He said, are you familiar with it? And I said, man, man, I, I think from like watching cartoons, you know, I think I know, I mean, what, what ragtime is? He said, well, it's traditionally a, a heavyset African American person, but it sounds a little bit like this. And I'm riding in the car and I'm looking out the windshield driving up this mountain and if I'm not looking at him, I'm like, all right, there's a £800 black guy. So I, I, I hit record on my phone, on My flip phone. Gov phone from 2005. I hit the record, and I said, hey, man, you. You gotta hit me again with that. And he said.
Mike
Oh, my God.
Clint
And I recorded on my phone because nobody's gonna believe that, right? So this dude comes, comes up, and this is. I'll be honest. I hope Rob o' Neal isn't listening to. To turn me in, but this is the one thing I did in recruiting. It was illegal. I let him sleep at my house one night before he went to ship out because I had nowhere for him to go. Normally, you just pass him off on somebody else that was joining. Yeah, because I didn't have anybody. Everybody shipped. So this. This kid had to stay at my house. So he. He comes. He's staying in my house with me and my wife for one night, and. And me and her, we. We drank a little bit of wine, and we didn't give him none. He wanted some. We said, nope, you're not getting that. He was, like, 19. We said, no. But I told my wife, I said, you know, after we had a couple glasses, I said. I said, carrie, this guy is. He told me he loves to sing and dance, and he's like, yeah, I. I actually left the country. I performed the lead in Miss Saigon, and I said, the lead of Miss Saigon.
Canine
Okay.
Clint
So he pulled it up on YouTube, and this joker's dressed as a woman in another country, and he's going to Ranger bat.
Jimmy
Sounds perfect.
Clint
Okay. So, yeah, this guy's confidence was off the scale. He flexed his calf at my wife. He said, I can't imagine this thing could get bigger. I said, dude, you're gonna make the best ranger ever. Ranger already. And so the next day, he took the PG test. I said, hey, I. I see you don't have no running shoes. You want to wear one? One of my pair or one from the office? We had a box of running shoes. He said, no, I'm gonna do it in my boots. So this joker run. All he had to do was run the PT test and pass it. Just pass it to be a pfc. And he passed it in a pair of cowboy boots. He run two miles. And I was like, 13 minutes or something. But, I mean, he was smoking, but he. He leaned up. When he was done, he leaned over and threw up all the way down. His whole clothes. His whole clothes were covered in puke. And then I had to put him in my Corvette to drive him back to the office, and he passed. He. So he got promoted. So this dude shipped out, and he was gone. I forgot to tell you his name. Not going to tell you his last name, but his first name was Theodore Bear.
Jimmy
Theodore Bear. One word. One word.
Clint
Teddy Bear. Teddy Bear.
Jimmy
Teddy Bear.
Clint
His first name and his middle name was Teddy Bear something. So Teddy Bear. So everybody asked me, is that, hey, is Teddy Bear coming in? I'm like, yeah, Teddy Bear's coming in. So Teddy Bear went to basic. He went to infantry school, he went to airborne school, he went to rasp. He ended up going to 1st Ranger Battalion. And he sent me an email, said this is when I was already back on the line. He sent me an email that he had made. He went to Ranger school. He had made corporal, and he was in the sniper section. He was a sniper. And so hey guys, this don't count for the. Every time Jimmy said sniper to take a shot because we lost two guys last week. So ways the he said he was a sniper. Then I ended up getting sent to Fort Stewart and I was a small group leader for Warriors Leader course. So every E5 from First Ranger bat comes through there to, to become a, you know, a sergeant. So you would get, you get one or two. There's only one or two settings for E5 Rangers. There's only one or two sentence. One is I'm a humble guy. I know I'm awesome, but let me help you guys out. And number two is the guy that says he's like 20 and he's got his arms crossed the whole time and he's just nitpicking every word that comes out of your mouth. Right? So I had this one Ranger from first Bat and he was, he was a sniper and he was actually. Well, no, the, the first one I.
Mike
Had, I asked him, we're passing, we're double past your limit.
Clint
Yeah, dude, I'm getting ready to hit you though. So I, I asked him if he knew Teddy Bear. He was like, yeah, I know Theodore. He said nobody ever called him 30 boy teddy bear. He said that that dude is a psycho. He said he re enlisted and ended up going to Italy. And, and that guy was my best student ever. That was my best Ranger student ever. He, he was only helpful and so humble. Dude showed up for the, the, the uniform inspection and had a silver star with valor as an E5.
Mike
According to Rob.
Tyler
You don't get this is going to.
Clint
Give Jimmy a hard on right here. He had a marksmanship badge. It was gold that had a target hanging from it. And it was authorized. And, and this guy. And it was a President's 100.
Mike
Yeah.
Clint
And he hadn't said nothing the whole month about how badass he was. That's how good he was. And when he graduated, he came to me and my wife and he. He gave me a Ranger coin. And it's one of the best coins I got in my collection because it came from somebody under me. And he said he didn't know that regular army had guys like me. And he. So then he was gone. And then the next cycle, I had his spotter who was. He told me that he actually outranked the guy from before. And he. And he said, did. Did the guy previously tell you about his record? And I said, no, he wasn't real big on bragging. I said, I know he had a silver star with valor. I mean, that's pretty badass, right? And I said, but he was. He was walking around typing stuff in the computers, helping people spell check and do all kinds. Anything he could do. He said, yeah, he. He's. He was a sniper. He said, he's. Did he tell you by his record in battalion? And I said, no, he's got the shortest confirmed kill with a sniper ride. And I looked at him and I said, the shortest? He said, Yep, one and a half feet.
Tyler
Damn.
Jimmy
Call of duty.
Mike
No scope.
Jimmy
