Brent
Was.
Tyler
It was a long week for me and Drew, at least.
Brent
Yeah. Like, welcome back from Ohio. Real long RV went. Got all the way there and back.
Tyler
It did ac. We thought the AC wasn't working.
Brent
One. Yeah. One for two. One for two on the Ohio trips in the rv. Not bad.
Drew
It actually tried to bring back some extra stuff.
Tyler
Yeah.
Drew
When like, like the gas pump Tyler drove off with.
Tyler
You didn't see it.
Brent
You didn't see it. So we go get gas.
Drew
It's a meth addict gas station at, like, 3 in the morning.
Tyler
There's a dude, like, going like this out front. Three in the morning?
Drew
Yeah.
Brent
So.
Drew
So we pumps the gas. We go inside. Tyler's like. We're driving. We're like, quarter mile down the road. He looks at me and Drew and he's like, did you guys get the gas thing? I'm like, we didn't get gas. You did. So I got out and it was laying in the middle of the road. And he drove.
Brent
No, it was laying in the thing.
Drew
Then I pulled it out, took a picture of it.
Brent
The nozzle?
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
Yeah. I thought. It's actually not. You're not the first person that. That I. I've known to do that. Thankfully, I haven't done it yet. I've. I've almost done it. Almost done.
Tyler
The RV's so big, you don't. When you come out, you don't see the thing running in half.
Brent
Yeah.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
Luck. Luckily, those things have those quick disconnects that. That are meant for that. Yeah. But. Oh, man.
Tyler
And then it was. All right, let's go give it back to him. Like, no.
Drew
Why are we st. We took a video and then put it online.
Brent
Is why. Why is it not on the wall right there?
Tyler
I know.
Brent
Dude.
Drew
Why didn't we.
Brent
That would be fast.
Drew
That would be a crime. That would be a crime.
Tyler
I was sitting there arguing the whole time. I'm like, well, we didn't mean to do anything, so we can't get in trouble. It's just. Most I could do is be like, you're an idiot.
Brent
Yeah.
Don
Doesn't work when I get pulled over for speeding. I didn't mean to speed, officer.
Brent
I'm sorry, Officer. I. I didn't know I couldn't do that.
Tyler
We ain't speeding in that rv, that's for sure. No, that's the only way you can get AC is when you're doing 70.
Brent
How long did it take you. You guys to get there?
Tyler
Is that night? 19.
Brent
19 hours.
Don
Yeah. Yeah. Plus trips. Yeah, I mean, it was about. It's a 16 hour trip plus 16 hour drive, plus trip. I mean, stops. Yeah.
Brent
I hope you appreciate it.
Don
Yeah, they did. Oh, they were all. They were.
Tyler
They are so awesome.
Brent
I love it. You get to hang out. Old Tim.
Tyler
Yeah.
Don
Oh, Tim's crazy.
Tyler
He's still. He's still recovering right now.
Brent
I'm sure he is. I talked to him today.
Tyler
Yeah. Is he hurting? He had to do.
Brent
He.
Tyler
Dude, that guy was awake like 21 hours of the day, every day.
Brent
If you guys don't know, I'm sure you do. We have with us Don Edwards, Green Beret night vision shooting extraordinaire. What was that nickname they gave you? There's some. Oh, man. Do you remember? Well, you. You the nod. Father. I like that one. The Not. I know. I was gonna. I was thinking, which one. Do you remember Sean calling you Don the Dragon? Do you remember that nickname?
Mike
I think that Scott Thomas, actually.
Brent
Okay. All right. I just remember. I just remember Sean saying it.
Mike
Yeah, yeah.
Brent
Why did he give you that nickname, Don the Dragon? Do you know why? I don't know. I stuck for a little while. Tyler, you got any nicknames from. From work? They're. They're really. They're really good.
Tyler
They used to call me Hoover the Mover. And the reason why. Because I'm very frumpy. And when I. When I work on my cardio, I can actually run a lot faster than people think. Yeah, man, you can really move like fruit for what we're looking at.
Brent
You can move. Yeah. Hoover the Mover. That's not bad. That's not bad. They're usually. They're usually. If someone's giving you a nickname, they're never gonna give you a cool one. Yeah, no one's giving you. No one's giving you cool nicknames.
Tyler
Correct.
Don
And Droopy Balls.
Brent
That Jy Balls.
Tyler
I heard someone at otoa, bro, I'm not even kidding.
Brent
You.
Tyler
Somebody went, yo, Drewy balls.
Don
Yeah.
Tyler
And I have no idea where it came from. They never came out of the shadows, but it.
Mike
They didn't want to admit it.
Tyler
It was like, from like across the thing. It was funny as hell. One of your. A Delta Force guy was there.
Don
Peter.
Brent
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah. Yes, I do.
Drew
Yeah. The dude with the girl with the dog.
Brent
Yeah, he's also with the.
Drew
No, that was Jimmy.
Brent
He's also there with the Sentinel Foundation.
Tyler
So, yeah, so there was another Delta guy in the States.
Brent
But somehow his OTOA Trump mine. I don't know how. No, I didn't. So. So I wasn't at otoa. I was helping out. The Sentinel foundation, raised money to save kids. It was for a good cause. There's only a. There's only a few events that I. I don't like to miss. Oteri is one of them. NTOA is another one. And SWAT Roundup is like those three. If I've missed any of those three, it hurts my heart. But the magnet. Talking about nicknames.
Tyler
Yeah, It's a long story.
Brent
It's a long story.
Tyler
Long story.
Brent
All right, well, they said, I.
Don
We got two hours.
Brent
The one I used to hang out in Truck Club when I was 15.
Drew
And they. The one guy was like, you're like a little magnet.
Brent
You won't go away. So it's stuck. It's stuck. Yeah, yeah. And it sounds kind of cool and surface. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a long story, though. Seemed pretty short. Maybe my timing's off, but I told it enough. I told it enough times. I can shorten it down, Mike. You spent enough. You spent enough time around. Around funny men. Anyone give you a nickname?
Drew
I went to Fort Polk, Louisiana, as 11 Bravo. I was making about 700amonth with jump Pay. My nickname was Food Stamp because I. I couldn' Couldn't afford it. Other guys would go to the field, all their cool and stuff, and I had like. I had nothing.
Tyler
You got to get married, bro.
Drew
I couldn't.
Brent
I couldn't.
Drew
I couldn't afford anything.
Brent
I do remember going to basic and ait not spending any money, and then getting home to look at my bank account. Like, I should probably have Truck. Yeah, I should probably. Yeah, I got some money in this thing I haven't, you know, and going. That's all I got. I did not have a lot of money.
Drew
I made the mistake of coming out of basic and AIT and went to. Down to downtown for a week to the little plazas with the girls in the little doors and they were very friendly, but all they took was, all they took was my money. That's all that ended up there. What's that, what's that city called where Fort Benning is?
Brent
Oh, Columbus.
Drew
Columbus, Yeah. I went down to Columbus to the old exit.
Tyler
Five couches.
Drew
The couch is on the wall. And I lost all my money. So I had, I had a bit.
Brent
But Don, what was, what was jump pay when, when you first got in, do you remember?
Tyler
I don't think it's one up.
Brent
Speaking. Speaking of, speaking of the mic, I.
Mike
Want to say it was like 115, but I think it was less than that one.
Brent
Yeah, it has not risen with inflation. Like jump is I think not risen.
Mike
If it was 115 when I first joined it, it had just gone up from like.
Drew
I didn't go up much since I got there because I wasn't making five or so. Yeah, I was nine. No, 96. And it still was very low.
Brent
Do you remember what it was? 175.
Drew
I want to say 175.
Brent
I think it's. It's only, it's only. It's 150. When I thought it was 150.
Mike
Yeah, they're raising it.
Brent
We don't need you.
Mike
Ye. I don't know what jump pay is now, but they also, now they have this master pay for like if you're a jump master, they should. Stuff like that. I always, I don't remember the details on it.
Brent
I always hated that, that in the military you, you can go out and better yourself and get all these extra, you know, designator skills and you get no reward form, you know, per se. Like the military should pay you with every skill set and every. And the more.
Mike
And I don't know about everyone, but I, I agree with the jump master thing because I agree with the jump master thing because that's a huge responsibility.
Brent
Huge responsibility.
Mike
And you know, not that it's an incentive, but you ought to be somewhat rewarded for taking that on because, you know, I mean, it's cool. And you know, I, you know, once I, once I went to jump master school, I was like, why did I wait so long? You know, it wasn't intentionally, but it was, you know, the first time I did outside safety checks.
Brent
I definitely want to get into the riots and super chat some other things. But, but the, the jump master thing, surprisingly hard school. Yeah, it was a surprising hard school. Like it. And I had to get. I went to the 82nd from the Delta Force. I went to the 82nd job, get a Haircut school because it was the only one that fit in into my schedule. Yeah. And I had to go for. For promotions. And then I remember thinking like as. As you're getting checked or. Or as I'm checking people in the three man line going. If anybody ever jmpied me like this, I'd be like, you need to slow down chief and look at my equipment. Like it's, it's insane the way you know how fast you have to go through.
Mike
But the standards are high. But for a reason.
Brent
Standards are high. I was. You get. You get three chances to. Do you know what that's called? Like the jmpi. JMP get three. I failed one. I got an extra one because I, because I scored high on my, on my. So. So I got a pre test that if you, if you make it, you're good. But it's a pre test.
Mike
Yeah. Yeah.
Brent
I failed that. I failed the. I don't like you retasted like in an hour. I failed my first test and I'll. I think I finally got on my. But anyway, I was nervous. I was like there's no way I'm going back. Oh gosh. So much academics and saying that I failed jmpi. I was nervous. I was.
Drew
Did you guys go to aerosol school?
Brent
I didn't. I did not go to Error.
Drew
I went. And that is just as bad. That is sounds stupid dope on a rope, slide down a road, whatever. That's. Yeah, I went to both.
Brent
I did both. So.
Drew
And I was the only airborne guy in my class. So I got murdered. I went to Ford Drum. But there is the part of Air Assault nobody realizes is finding all the gigs on the Sling Lows. And I failed too. I failed the first one in the morning. I failed the second one three and you're done. So if I would have failed again, I was driving. I was going all the way back. So it was very, very stressful and it sounds stupid. Like is it.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
Oh and it's a lot of work to. They would put. They would put 550 like to go home empty handed.
Brent
Oh for sure.
Drew
I can't imagine going home.
Brent
People, they do forget some of those schools. Pathfinder is another one like you. You basically go through Pathfinder and, and Robin Sage. But like the, the. The textbook portion of those schools are so much harder than what the school you think it is or the fun part of that school. The milk as military does.
Drew
I say aerosol. You're like oh, you slid down a rope. Big deal. No, there's a week of sling loads.
Tyler
What do you think? What do you. I don't say what do you think is harder? Because you can't answer that. What would you rather do, the hardest of the physical schools or the hardest of the academic schools?
Brent
Oh, that's a good question. I think I'd rather do the hardest of the physical schools.
Mike
It depends which one makes me go hungry because I've done all those. Yeah, I'm good at those. They're not fun. I check all those.
Brent
Go without food blocks. I mean, he'll say. And we talked about on the podcast, dive school was. Was one of the most physical schools ever went to. But the dive charts and the re dives and. And the. The academics of dive school was no joke. Bob Keller, who had no problem physically with dive school, I'm not sure he ever went to bed sore. I had. Like, he was my roommate. Like, I had to academically tutor him so he could graduate. Dive school, it was.
Drew
It was.
Mike
You go to dive soon.
Brent
Yeah, a dive soup was a lot easier. It was a dive.
Mike
Oh, was it? I thought it was academically way hard.
Brent
Yeah, it was. It was pretty much a gentleman's course. It had a couple hard things to it, but dive soup was a much better experience.
Mike
Not like jump master versus.
Brent
But I still would walk by the pool and dive soup, the same pool you go to dive school in, and just. And just look at that with hatred and disdain.
Mike
Flipping off a swimming pool.
Brent
I've never hated an inanimate object so much in my life than the pool in Key West. Anyway, where are we at, Drew?
Don
All right, super chats. Evan J234 says, what's up, guys? Y' all gotta try to get on Tommy Moon, one of the OG Rooftop Koreans, to tell a story closing song. NOFX separation churches.
Tyler
And this is gonna be somebody's job now.
Brent
I love that song. $20, no effects. I love $5.
Tyler
Unless somebody offers, like, 395 to make.
Brent
It so farther they're in the lead. And because I like the song, I'm. It's. It's on there.
Tyler
You can match it.
Don
Josh says, did you guys see the David Hookstead video of him talking about Rob o' Neill's teats? Maybe that's tweets. I don't know.
Brent
Tweets?
Don
Yeah, tweets Announced telling Red story and keeping him out of prison?
Tyler
I think you did talk about that.
Brent
We talked about that. We talked about that last week. And he deleted that tweet shortly after posting it because he knows not to poke the bear, the. To the guy who actually shot bin Laden. What a stupid thing to do. But those are things you do when. When you're drunk off your ass and you have to live with yourself and you have to live with that lie. Those. Those are things you do.
Don
All right, Everyday American Brent, get your pencil out. Says, can you look into the battle where some rangers smoked a bunch of Wagner dudes in Syria? It's pretty America number one story in the midst of the times.
Tyler
What's a Wagner dude in Syria?
Brent
Yeah, they're kind of like the Blackwater for. For Russia. That. That story's out there. It's in the open. I. I may know a thing or two about that, but it wasn't the Rangers that smoked all those dudes. There was. There was a. There's another unit there. That was it. They're in support of. Yeah, I've never heard anyone give. Give the rangers credit for smoking all those dudes. And not that they did nothing, but was it.
Tyler
Was it a battle? Was a miscommunication.
Brent
It wasn't much of a battle.
Mike
Shooting event.
Brent
Yeah, you know, I was. I finally got time to. To sit down a little bit and watch the Shawn Ryan episode. Shawn Ryan interviewed one of the Russians from. From the Wagner group. So I'm. It's really interesting to see someone from the other side, like, give their perspective about it. And when I talked, I didn't. I didn't talk. I didn't go see it till I talked to Sean about it. And Sean was like, oh, yeah. He was real honest about what happened and how. And how they got their asses kicked. I was like, I'm kind of surprised he was, to be honest with you. It's just not flattering to be like, yeah, we're the Wagner group. We're all former betsnaz guys. And, you know, we're kind of the best that. That Rush has to offer for hire and buried a lot of our friends. But, yeah, he was very open and honest about how. How ineffective their plan was.
Don
All right. Yeah. And I think the guys that started Blackwater, I don't think they did a lot of RVing, because black water means something else when you're in an rv.
Tyler
Dad joke.
Don
You know what I mean? Black water, gray water, fresh water. Anyway, I've been RVing for a few days.
Brent
Fresh on his mind.
Tyler
All right.
Don
Michael Platt says, can't stay long. I have prior engagements. Rodeo and frcc. Delta at the rodeo. Nice.
Brent
Oh, nice. Heck, yeah. I need to go to rodeo. I've Been to a rodeo since I was a kid, I think. Rodeo.
Don
I got silver spurs here in Orlando.
Tyler
Funny story about a rodeo. When I was a kid growing up, I was probably school. The newspaper was like the front page of the newspaper where I grew up was Islamic man purposely butchers the national anthem at rodeo, right? And it was this huge thing. I was like, oh, my God, was that. It was Borat in my hometown.
Brent
I remember that. Yeah, I remember. I remember. Gosh, that. That guy got away with so much for so long. It took took. He was. He was really good at costumes, you know, as well. Like, he. He became several different people.
Tyler
He got. I don't know if it was Borat or if it was his other one, but they got Rudolph Giuliani on camera. Like, it. It was pretty bad.
Brent
You see the. The video of him pretending to be an Islamic guy and he goes like, Podunktown, usa, Basically telling them like, these are the. This is this. These are the different mosque plans we have for your city. It's going to be a beautiful mosque. It's the biggest mosque ever. And like, but you know, you know, we need, we need your buy in on this. And we want to know which mosque you want us to build. And they're like. And they're all since small town usa, like, we don't want any of your mosques here. And they were just blatantly kind of racist about it and not holding back. It was brilliant.
Tyler
Kidnap Pamela Anderson in a book signing.
Mike
Out of control.
Brent
Yeah, he was. Yeah, he was out of control. The Dictator still is still one of my favorite movies. That was a good one.
Don
All right, Brent. When folks leave Delta and go to Rangers, Green Berets or Big army, do they have to sign a NDA confidentiality agreement on not teaching or showing any ttps Etc. Their new teammates Closing song. Pennywise broke him.
Brent
That's another good one.
Tyler
How much?
Brent
They're coming. 20 bucks. They're coming strong with the song request tonight. We're two for two on that. You sign an NDA right off the bat. So everyone's under an NDA and if they leave Delta to go to the Rangers or back to the Green Berets or back to Big Army, It's. It wasn't for a good reason. No one, no one, no one leaves the unit to go back. You know, just like, just like John McPhee. He didn't go back to be a Green Beret willingly. He was. He was fired.
Don
All right, so he says last week a guy was suicidal and one of you offered for him to speak to you guys really like that kindness. This is a small thank you. Wish I could give more. Question. £100 there. Question. What's the kindest someone has been to each of you?
Brent
Oh, that's a good question. Damn. That's a good question. What's the kindest.
Tyler
You gotta go first.
Brent
Has ever been to me?
Don
My mom never killed me.
Brent
I gotta say. It's. It's. It's my dad. My mom and dad. My mom and dad did. When they sold their businesses and went to retire, they did two really cool things to me for me. One was right off this whole business, I had that C6 Corvette that I did. That Joe thing came back from deployment, and it was. It was like 2005. And I bought a 2005 black Corvette. Yeah, I remember that. I put. I put half down on that thing, and I think I had like 10 or 15 grand still left on it. And my mom and dad paid it off.
Tyler
Nice.
Brent
That was. That was really. That was really nice of them. I haven't forgotten that. And they gave. They gave me. I didn't ask for it. They gave me a down payment to help from my very first house.
Tyler
And, yeah, I'd have to say my parents, too. Same thing. I had a truck. I was out of the army, which means I had no money. So I was like, oh, I want to go down to just liability insurance. And they're like, you owe, like, six grand on this thing, dude. You ain't going to liability. So my mom paid it off so I could just have liability.
Brent
Really?
Tyler
That's so brave. Yes.
Brent
That's badass. Donald's the nice thing anyone's ever done, man.
Mike
I don't know. A lot of people have helped me over the years and done done great things for me. I don't know if I could even nail it down to one person.
Tyler
You know what's funny? You don't think about how nice people are to.
Mike
You know, I mean, I've had so many people, like mentors and. And stuff like that, that it's like.
Brent
I'm gonna add one more to the list because it was recent. It's one thing for your parents to do something, you know, nice to you because they. They sold a business and have money. I'm not taking anything away from that. They didn't have to do anything for me, you know, And. And I would have made it just fine. He's. He's actually a listener at times. He might be listening right now. He may not want his whole name out there, but but his name's Jordan, and him and his family own a couple Ashley furniture stores. He brought me out there and was like, hey, I want to. I want to do like a shooting thing for some of my. For my managers. Would you come out here? So what would you charge? It's like, oh, nothing, man. I'll come out there. And he's. He's a friend of mine. He's a good friend of mine. I told him nothing. Go out there. Spent a couple days, you know, running all his managers and people important to his business. And when he dropped me off at the airport, he gave me an envelope, just said thank you on it. And I was like, no. I figured it was a love letter or something gay. And opened it up and it was a five thousand dollar check. And at the time, he didn't know it. At the time, FRCC was not doing good. And that five thousand dollar check meant the world.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
To me. And I'm not saying FRCC is here because of that. Let me tell you. It was. It took a lot of stress off my shoulders. It took a lot of stress off my shoulders.
Tyler
That's how you be nice to us guys. You give us money. Actually, you know what? It's funny as I'm making a joke and you guys, you guys doing these super chats so we can have the studio. This mixed with the Patreon is the reason why, you know, our YouTubes always get canceled, pulled down, demonetized, that we can't rely on YouTube ad money anymore. So.
Brent
Relieving stress.
Tyler
Yeah. Yeah. What do you always say?
Brent
People.
Tyler
People say that money doesn't.
Brent
It's. Well, one of the things I say is, hey, it's not all about money. But it's all about money. It is. I mean, you can't provide for your kids. You can't.
Mike
We can't see anybody crying while riding a jet ski.
Brent
No.
Don
Oh, man.
Brent
No.
Don
That's T shirt.
Tyler
Yeah. Yeah. You can't do a boat because I've seen people cry when their boats never work. But you got to get a jet ski that, what, a thousand dollars Most to fix and then you're back.
Brent
I don't know.
Don
No, I got two. There's.
Brent
That's a poor subject for Drew.
Tyler
You got jet skis?
Don
Get me started.
Tyler
Yeah, don't get me started.
Don
Yeah, I'll pay you to take them. All right. Bronk and Hoover, would you have an ex mobster on?
Brent
Hell yeah.
Tyler
Yeah, absolutely.
Brent
If you'll talk. That's the problem. Sometimes we got NDAs. Yeah, sorry.
Mike
I'm on.
Brent
We'll trade TTOP. Yeah. I bet their NDAs are a lot more enforceable than. Than the units.
Tyler
Yeah.
Don
See if he'll.
Brent
Come on.
Don
We'll make him an offer you can't refuse.
Brent
I love it.
Don
All right.
Tyler
I love it. All right.
Don
Brady Pearson, 10 bucks. Here's to another Thursday night with the boys. Always looking forward to these, Tyler. Any funny body cam stories? For example, talking smack about something, forgetting it was on.
Tyler
I've talked about my supervisor. And then all of a sudd. Not like me anymore after that date. Because what they have to do is supervisors pretty much everywhere now are mandated to review audit, like five minutes of. Of your body cam per week, you know, just to make sure it's an audit.
Brent
Yeah.
Tyler
And they used to get away with it by just leaving it on the background.
Brent
Okay.
Tyler
But now they can't do that anymore. They actually. It records them physically watching it. Wow. So. And I've said some dumb things about supervisors, chain of command. And, you know, I found. I'm like, this went across his desk, and they're like, yeah. Like, do you know what I said on that body cam? No. I mean, this had to go through the chain.
Brent
The.
Tyler
The captain's.
Brent
We were. Whoops. We were on my first deployment with one of my OTC teammates, and he was carrying a ladder to target, and he had a lot of experience. He's a former Ranger, you know, he. He had a ton of experience, and he. For whatever reason, he did not like the plan. And the latter had hit his. His pusha talk, and he was bitching about how stupid the plan over the net as a new guy over the hot mic. Hot mic. You couldn't get. I could. No one could get over there fast enough to get him to just shut up.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
Oh, that was a. He didn't. He. He. Yeah. He got an attitude adjustment after that, but not that he. It. He was. He wasn't wrong. He wasn't wrong, actually. But that's not gonna work out.
Mike
That's right up there with when you want to, like, yell something over the. The team freak and you accidentally grab the satcom.
Tyler
Oh, my gosh.
Brent
Oh, I said this stuff. So, you know, like in the. In the. In the g. Oh, gosh. Whether it was the big ones, the. In the. The MRAPs, the. The something G. RGs. The big M. Raps. Yeah. They have the switch that goes from. It'll. It's just a little switch. It goes from, like, your team network to satcom. Yeah. And when the team lead the Team leader was last pushing out over Satcom. But you've been on. On internals this whole time. If he forgets to put it, push it back to team internal. It stays on satcom. And we were in Afghanistan, and I started talking about the. This. This girl whose toes and eyes looked really good. That was kind of a. That was kind of a tight dress to have on. And just saying some. Some inappropriate thing. Not like, crazy locker room talk, but. Yeah, some locker room talk that I didn't want over the satcom. Yeah, but it went over Satcom. Green Bray's being. Being horn dogs on. On patrol. And the good news is it's a satcom. No one knows who that. Who. Who that came from.
Mike
Yeah, just stop talking.
Brent
Yeah, just stop talking. And they let me know on the internal mic as I'm coming on my impel tours. Brent, I think we're not getting that. That might be on satcom. And it's like your heart sinks. My heart sinks. And of course, the C decoder is like, last calling station, identify yourself.
Tyler
No, we used to have a guy.
Brent
Baby seals.
Tyler
There used to be the Five back when we started. I figured right when we got there, it didn't last very long. There was a FOB Phantom. Then you would get on the radio on the Five and go, I'm the Five Phantom. Sergeant Major wanted him dead. I'm the Five Phantom.
Brent
Every now and again on Satcom, like a. If a. A national title game was played, someone get on Satcom like, the Gators won, like, four national titles over, like, couple years. People get on Satcom like, go, Gators. Yeah. And be like, clear the net. This isn't for that, but you get that.
Don
Eagle Heart says, Tall got the bro T calf out there. Hell, yeah.
Brent
Paul got the bro tcaf.
Tyler
He's a Taylor Cabanaugh's. The next episode, this coming Monday.
Brent
Nice.
Tyler
I don't know who Tall is. Okay, Ty.
Brent
All right.
Don
Eagle Heart, Maybe.
Brent
Hey, I was just about to ask if Zulu Whiskey was in the chat.
Tyler
Is he?
Don
He says sorry for getting weird last week.
Tyler
You're good, bud.
Don
Had some inner demons working their way out.
Tyler
All right.
Don
That's all right.
Tyler
You're still here. You're here.
Brent
You're here.
Tyler
You're here for the boys.
Brent
This one's for the boys.
Don
That's right, baby.
Drew
Always keep that head up.
Don
Jacob Schneider. 10 bucks. First Special Forces operational Detachment Delta. Father and Tyler. And would you rather have Marcus the Lone Runner Latrell or a scared female cop as your backup?
Brent
What's the difference?
Tyler
Oh, We've said this before.
Mike
Wants to know the difference between these two pictures.
Brent
Yeah, they're the same.
Drew
They're the same.
Tyler
Yeah. I mean, we've talked about this before. I'd rather obviously have Marcus Lutrell. He's a trained killer. You know, if I can make sure he's gonna stay there.
Drew
Well, the worst case is if you don't, you'll end up in a movie. You'll be good either way.
Don
Well, that one works. Couch camera died.
Tyler
Oh, no.
Mike
Couch cam.
Don
All right, let's sound weird. Jordan McAllister, what's your favorite bourbon? I owe you, Don.
Mike
Oh, you know what I like?
Brent
You know what I like?
Mike
E H Taylor.
Brent
Eh, Taylor's your favorite.
Mike
Colonel Taylor.
Tyler
All right, all right. So I'm getting used to this. We have to give Tasty Games a shout out.
Brent
Okay?
Tyler
Tasty Gains is a huge supporter of us. They're a huge supporter of. Of special operations in general. You'll even see Truck Mafee doing these. But Tasty games, they're super affordable and they're gummies. So if you don't want to carry around creat with you, you don't want to carry on pre workout with you because we've all done that. We've all filled the shakers up with a powder that gets opened in our bag and now you have pre workout all over your bag and nothing to drink. These gummies are there for it. You can take one gummy. Although he is said he's going to make a one where you take two gummies. It's a little bit less, you know, you eat the gummies. It's a. It's a pre workout in a gummy. You'll feel, you know one. Yeah, you could take one of these.
Mike
Yeah, just munch on those all day or whatever.
Tyler
Oh yeah, you don't want to do that. Don't do that.
Mike
What if I did that and I didn't go the gym?
Tyler
You feel itchy in your eyeballs?
Mike
Hell yeah.
Tyler
Yeah. So yeah, and the creatine gummies too, man. You can check out the fly dish in the back of the eyeball.
Brent
It's a hard one to scratch.
Tyler
So pre go to Tasty Gains dot com. We're going to put the link in the episode description when we're done. It's a specific link for anti Hero. If you can wait till when this is over, go back and re watch it. Or you can order now but tasty gains dot com.
Don
All right, back to our regular schedules program. Clovel 47. Nope. Don't call me Pappy. Five bucks says Texas street cop here.
Brent
Hell yeah.
Don
First time making the live stream.
Brent
Welcome.
Don
Love all the content from you guys. And Copville. Always keeps me awake during these EJ's.
Tyler
I cut his camera.
Brent
What's a. What's an E? If you gotta ask us, you can't afford it. What's an ej?
Tyler
Oh.
Drew
I bet it's Extra Job. Extra Jobs.
Brent
Extra job.
Drew
He's sitting on the Internet.
Tyler
Definitely not sexual.
Drew
There was an hj, cj, vj. I'm trying to think of Barry. Barry Badgernath in that movie where he named everything Extra jobs.
Tyler
Don't call me Poppy. You know what that's from? Cops.
Drew
Cops.
Tyler
Yeah. There was this old school. I thought it was Pittsburgh, but apparently it wasn't.
Drew
It was. No, it's New Jersey.
Tyler
He's this New Jersey guy and he's got a high. And he catches this Hispanic, like, juvenile young kid and he's calling him Poppy. Poppy. And he finally goes, don't call me Poppy.
Brent
I'm not your Poppy.
Drew
He's got a pistol to his head too. The whole time he's doing it. Yeah, it's a good episode. Oh, I've tried to get him on. I can't. I can't get him on.
Brent
I just saw a video. It's just some cops doing cop work and overseas. Sometimes is. Sometimes. Well, a lot of times it's bad. Sometimes they do things that we can't do. Yeah. So apparently there was this juvenile that was well known for. For. For stealing like all over the city. And I guess they couldn't do anything with him because of the rules. And he was a juvenile. So they showed up to his 18th birthday party in uniform.
Drew
Oh, yeah.
Brent
Sang them Happy birthday. Yes, G Cake. And at some point arrested him because he's now 18.
Drew
There's a great video of him standing.
Brent
There and there's just these cops and. And like multi cam, like tactical uniform. There's like four or five of the. Crashed his party.
Drew
Yeah.
Brent
And they're handing out cake and they're like, you know, you can. I can't hear what they're saying, but you can definitely tell, like, and enjoy today because you're 18 now.
Drew
He's got that face like.
Brent
Oh, and he's miserable.
Drew
Yeah.
Brent
Oh, he's. And the birthday boy's miserable. It's so awesome.
Don
All right, we got Clover 47 says, heard that the actual shooter from UBL Red is an officer, not enlisted. Is that true?
Brent
I'll tell you how I know. That's not true. Besides knowing it's not true. Is that because he was on the objective? Tier 1 units don't, don't let officers go inside the house until we clear it and say you can come in.
Mike
Come in and check it out.
Brent
Respectfully, come and see my work.
Don
All right. Holy fook. $10. Brent, when serving with or alongside a foreign SOF unit, any interesting skills, knowledge that surprised you? Can you give an example without disclosing any ttps, we really didn't work with.
Brent
With a lot of soft units during my time because it was war time. So we were, we were doing war things. I know prior to that, you know, we did do some, some, some exchanges a little more often. I believe they're doing that more now. But. So I, I don't, I didn't really get to work alongside a lot of different units, you know, so.
Mike
And you don't count partner forces?
Brent
I don't count partner forces. You can call them a special operations partner for us all you want.
Drew
Have you guys had anybody on from another like.
Tyler
No, I don't think so.
Drew
I have an SAS guy that would like to come on the. You know, he did 23 years SAS, three years infantry over in here in Florida. Yeah, he lives right, he lives close by.
Brent
Here's the. Not to keep bringing his name up, but it's just because it's, it's relevant. But one of the things, you know, Sean Ryan was lamenting, he was like, I hate interviewing SAS guys because they'll come on, but they're the most tight lipped. And so he's like, you gotta, you gotta.
Tyler
We got four hours to fill.
Drew
He's a pretty outspoken dude.
Brent
I get it. Like you can't say a lot, but, you know, they won't even tell you what color. Yeah, you gotta, you gotta get of.
Drew
Yeah, I've talked to him. I think he would be a great.
Brent
I'd love it.
Tyler
Yeah.
Drew
The only thing is he works for six. You guys have some more. You have some more stuff to argue about. Great dude too.
Don
Salvador says that's nice. Yeah, yeah. It's all over the chats. Everybody's talking about Israel struck Iran tonight.
Brent
Hell yeah. Yeah. Breaking news. Re. Redo the thumbnail.
Mike
Watch this and talk about it.
Brent
Yeah, yeah. Hell yeah. I'll see, I'll see if I can't let you guys know what's going on. Keep going.
Don
They've been talking about it in the chats. Let's see. Salvador Ballonas back again. Britain. Tyler, what's your take on Governor DeSantis say no more. We love him. And the Brevard County Sheriff. Recent comments. I don't think it was Brevard. I think it was Polk.
Drew
No, as well.
Brent
Okay.
Don
Recent comments. When it comes to dealing with protesters, we love them. Do you think sending Marines to LA will clean up these protests?
Brent
Well, it's done back there.
Tyler
We have. All right, so can you go to Instagram one of those videos? We actually have Desantis. It should show Desantis down. Is that. Yeah, don't go down. Down, down, down, down, down.
Brent
Right there. No.
Tyler
Right there.
Mike
All right.
Don
Gotta give me a second.
Tyler
Yeah, we're good. Yeah. Desantis said, if you're in fear for your life, you're in fear for your life.
Brent
I love that. I. I must have seen that three or four times a day.
Mike
Drive over somebody trying to get out.
Tyler
Of there.
Brent
Living on one of those streets, and a mob comes and surrounds your vehicle and threatens you. You have a right to flee for your safety. And so if you drive off and you hit one of these people, that's their fault for impinging on you. You don't have to sit there and just be a sitting duck and let the mob grab you out of your.
Tyler
Car and drag you through the streets.
Brent
You have a right to defend yourself in Florida.
Tyler
I need the reaction video from this guy. But. Yeah, and I guess the sheriff said the same thing.
Drew
I think Wayne Ivey said something similar.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
Love it.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
How is. I mean, really, how has that not been said out loud before this? I mean, that's. That's been a problem before.
Tyler
92. Remember those riots? They pulled out that truck driver and beat him to death.
Drew
Reginald Penny.
Brent
That's been a problem before. There's no way. If you were in the street where cars go impeding traffic and you're going to surround a car and not let a driver do what he can do to. It's. It's on. All right, let's go. Let's go back. Sorry to pause in the middle. Go back this way. As a police officer, do. Do you have to get out of the way of. Of the car? This. This is. This has come up before.
Drew
Not. Not if you don't put yourself there.
Brent
Okay. Oh, yeah, yeah. If you put yourself there, you created your existence. You cr. That's right.
Drew
Yes.
Brent
How so? Like, if it's good for one, it's good for both. Right. Like, so we've already set a precedence to say, hey, if you put yourself there, you have an exit, and this is. Take it.
Drew
Well, I think the Civilians have more, more room to act aggressively because they're not trained like us. They're not carrying a gun, they're in their car.
Brent
And, and that being said, I actually hate that rule. I don't like consistency in this rule. Because a cop honestly should be able to stand right in front of your car. If you're doing something illegal, he's trying to detain you.
Tyler
I agree. He.
Brent
You should be able to stand in front of his car and if he moves an inc, you should be, you should be in fear for your life. Use deadly force like, well, you can't run.
Drew
It stop happening.
Brent
If they started doing that, it would stop happening. So I actually disagree. I disagree with the consistency. I think cops should be able to put themselves there and stop you. But the fact that cops can't do it and protesters can, that's crazy.
Tyler
So here's another thing that we've said before when we were talking about George Floyd. Lethal force is not the same during civil unrest. I'm watching video clips of cops being pelted with rocks right in their face. They're being recovered by other cops. If you, if I were to show up to a call and you picked up a rock and went like this, I can shoot you all day long and no one will be.
Brent
What's the difference?
Tyler
There's. Yeah, I guess now that it's a riot, they're allowed to do that.
Brent
All right.
Drew
I don't understand.
Brent
This. Is this, this.
Mike
I mean, I think these guys are just showing so much restraint.
Brent
Yeah, this. I don't know if I'd call it, like, not willingly. It's the restraint that's put on them by their stupid Democratic elected leaders that.
Drew
Are also happening in cities. It ain't happening in, like, it's not.
Brent
Happening before happening in some country town.
Drew
In the, in the middle of a one. One horse, one traffic light town where you're gonna get mowed down and killed by those dudes. So it's happened towards, tolerated.
Brent
At some point, this, this, this, this thought crept up into my brain. I was like, exactly. You're telling me so. I've always hated the word insurrection. It's just a stupid, over the top, dramatic word the Liberals used about January 6th. Just over the top. That's not. If you keep using that word, you don't know, you don't even know what that word means. Okay, so they look stupid every time they use it. That wasn't an insurrection. But how about this? How about a group of people waving a foreign flag and attacking your, your police Officers who are there for law and order. You're literally trying to take over a an American city and change laws while and violently while flying a foreign country's flag. That's way closer to insurrection than January 6th ever, man. It is and that's what it is. It's insurrection. And when it. I wish we got. I wish we were Sean Ryan big no, I'll use Sean Ryan's name again, but in a different way. Sean Ryan big Because we would get. I would use our mass following to start a counter protest and wipe the floor.
Tyler
That's the FBI coming in going br, you're under arrest.
Drew
I had somebody post send something to me today. And here's my argument they're talking about. They're already pre staging weapons. Why aren't we out there ahead of the game eliminating those people?
Tyler
They're finding the rock piles.
Drew
Yeah, but who? They know they're going to do them. Why aren't we arresting those people now? Why aren't we already at the intersections when we know there's a planned protest Saturday here? We should already have that place flooded. Ready to start taking everybody to jail now on Thursday, not wait till Saturday.
Tyler
To answer the question about the Marines. They're there out of logistical. They're just closest. I don't think they're bringing in.
Brent
Yes. Marine bases to kill people. Yeah, I love it. I hate that. Again, they just use these dramatic, inflammatory words. And so Newsom was like, you know, Donald Trump you illegally, you know, mobilize these troops. Stop with these illegal troops and get them out of here. No, there's absolutely constitutional. The president can mobilize troops within the United States. It's called posse comitatus. He can, he can do it if he wants to. That's not. Just because you don't like it doesn't make it illegal. So how about this? How about you control of your own state and your own city and the feds won't have to step in to protect the good people of California. I'm glad he did it. I wish he'd have done it sooner. Absolutely. And, and I, and I really wish the marines would go front lines on it.
Tyler
Do you think they gave him weapon all right, Bullets.
Brent
I think they gave him rubber bullets. They're gonna give them non, non lethal stuff. But, but you're talking about a group of guys who signed up up after g wat hoping for g wat stuff. And this is the closest thing they're gonna get to put some boots on people. Yeah, I hope, I hope they put the Marines up there and say, hey, stop this. The Marines will stop it.
Tyler
Yeah. Oh, for super chats. I'm so sorry, dude. How are we? Are we getting stacked? Can we catch up? Okay, let's. Okay, cool.
Don
See, this is. Oh, hold on.
Brent
Why he's looking this up. Israel bombed Tehran. Tonight, the capital of Iran. Bomb the capital.
Tyler
Is that gonna.
Brent
I'm so excited.
Drew
Or is that to keep us distracted from what's about to go down in the United States?
Brent
I'm so excited.
Mike
Or they're taking that opportunity. Our distraction.
Drew
Yeah, One or the other. Somebody distracting some.
Tyler
Where's the SD list?
Drew
Something crazy that's gonna get released tomorrow with the alien files. And we're gonna be like, I didn't even see that.
Mike
Like, oh, they're burning la. I'm gonna do whatever I want.
Drew
Yes. Nobody's gonna pay attention for sure.
Brent
You can't keep control of your own country. You sure as hell can't control what we're doing.
Don
All right, we'll get into this stuff. But right here it says, Iran has started its retaliation strike. Ballistic missiles inbound.
Tyler
Oh, my goodness.
Brent
The Iron Dome paid by the United States is gonna pick off all of your shitty missiles.
Don
Yeah.
Mike
And then you'll be out.
Don
The problem with that is those. Those missiles are either built by Russia or Iran, so either way, they suck.
Mike
So run out of gas.
Brent
Anyway. There. That being said, Syria launched some missiles at us after Trump hit. Hit the capital of Syria after the. They crossed the red line and were putting chemical warfare on. On their own people. So Trump sent some missiles their way, which they did under Barack's watch, too. And Barack was the one who said, you know, I remember, don't ever cross the red line. And they did. And. And Brock didn't do shit.
Mike
Don't do that again.
Brent
And so Trump did exactly what he said he was gonna do. And so CYR is like, hey, I know where your troops are. We're gonna send missiles towards them. And I never. They launched them. They were so far away. Like, they weren't even. They were so far off. They weren't even within, like, range to intercept them. That's how horrible their missile strikes were.
Don
Back in the 90s, there was a Saturday Night Live skit with, you know, Wayne's. Wayne's World.
Brent
Yeah.
Don
Right. And. And there was about the Scott missiles.
Brent
Yeah.
Don
Like, what. What country was shooting off Scud missiles? Iraq.
Brent
Yeah.
Don
And. And they would always drop long before their target and never be any threat. And they compared the missile to, like, a girl who looks good from afar, like, oh, she. She looks good. And you get closer. No, she's a stud.
Brent
Yeah. Yeah, that's right. Danger from afar up there. She's just a skill. Oh, that.
Tyler
That was. Yeah, that was a. Yeah, yeah. It's good.
Brent
Yeah.
Don
Wayne's World, party on. All right, let's see. Patrick Johnson for 50 bucks says, Guys, sorry I couldn't make it to in person tonight. Watching live as promised.
Brent
Nice.
Don
Pathfinder School was challenging for sure. It's no otc, but hard for normal folks. Love the show.
Brent
Oh. Like I said, I think they closed Pathfinder Grinder School.
Mike
Somebody told me that.
Brent
Yeah, I don't think.
Drew
I don't think it exists anymore.
Mike
I think it's gone.
Brent
It was a cool badge. It was. I'd have gone just for the badge.
Don
Jennison 11 says Brent, that podunk little town was Kingman, Arizona. Since I live in Arizona, I've been there and everyone there is exactly like the movie and it's hilarious.
Brent
He's talking about the, the Borat thing. Yeah, yeah. And, and the, the in The Mosque.
Don
Tape, 1999 says, Thoughts on Israel versus.
Brent
Iran long time coming. Yeah.
Mike
Talking about it.
Brent
Iran runs their mouth.
Tyler
It's crazy not being involved directly.
Brent
Iran's like. Like the. The kid who never gets beat up and just chirps and chirps and chirps and chirps and tells everyone like, hey, I'm. I'm gonna beat your ass. But no one really takes him serious. But at some point, you run your mouth enough, you're gonna get punched. Well, Israel just punch you. And guess what? You're not gonna. You're not gonna do anything about it.
Tyler
Palestine's like that little one that gets his ass beat every time, but he.
Brent
Still talks like for sure Christmas story, though.
Tyler
Yeah. The bully's little sidekick, the toad toady.
Brent
Oh, I can't. I can't wait for this.
Tyler
We need to be doing a play by play.
Brent
Oh, I really can't. Israel is going to wipe the floor with iron.
Tyler
You think they waited until Thursday night squadcast to do?
Brent
They probably did out of respect to us. I think they did did because half.
Don
The world's watching us.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
They coordinated with crew.
Brent
Yeah. Here's what's gonna happen is Iran's gonna talk a lot of and they're gonna send some missiles. But I don't really know. It's because at some point even, even the little kids who, who, who yap a lot and say they're gonna beat him every now and again, they really believe it. I don't know if Iran really believes it, but there's a part of me that thinks they know what Israel is capable of and they know they're, they're not that guy. So I think they're gonna, they're gonna send some, some missiles over that way. But in the day I don't know if they'll do shit about it because it, it's better to run your mouth and think you can beat someone up than get your ass beat in front of the whole world.
Tyler
Yeah.
Mike
They're gonna try and get sympathy and support.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
What. And what they would. What they're really gonna do is. What is really what, what they've done for decades now is they're not going to go to toe to toe with Israel. They're gonna go the way and they're going to start doing terrorist type attacks inside Israel because they know they can't go to rule. That's, that's my guess.
Don
They're gonna throw some girl punches. All right. And then they're gonna go. Yeah.
Tyler
Did you see what my cam drew? Cam?
Don
Oh, yeah, sorry.
Tyler
You talk.
Don
Yeah, did you see what my butt did to their foot? All right, that's what they're gonna do.
Brent
But we'll see. We'll see. I'm here for it.
Don
Okay? Deacon, your mouth. Trent and skyler. Who wins 10 ice protesters or one 19 year old lance corporal jacked up on three green monsters in Copenhagen with a saw.
Brent
Gosh, you can take the saw away.
Drew
He was winning. He was winning before I heard Saul. Yeah, now he's really winning.
Mike
Baseball bat.
Brent
That's right. Give him a baton. Give him his two fists. I'm taking that Lance corporal Marine all day long. Because this, let me say it's kind of like the gorilla scenario about Attic. Oh yeah, yeah. If we're being honest, it's kind of like the hundred men versus a gorilla. When that Lance corporal unleashes fists of fear in about two or three of those oat milk drinking.
Don
Bring it.
Brent
The other seven ago. I don't really want this. But the problem is the marines unleashed and now he's zeroed in on you and he's gonna run you down.
Tyler
Even his buddies too.
Don
Oh gosh, now he's having fun.
Mike
Yeah, I mean Marines check their pockets.
Tyler
Marines. You gotta understand £29, Paul. Marines. When they say they're trained in de escalation. That was a two hour block on the computer that they did not that.
Don
Their girlfriend did for them.
Brent
I saw them like practicing in some soccer fields or whatever. Like some.
Mike
Yeah.
Brent
Some of their moving formations. Right. If you think whatever de escalation training that they're taking is going to undo, what, three or four years in the rain core of escalation training is done. You're so we got that wrong.
Tyler
Escalation training.
Don
All right. He also is putting in the 20 bucks for closing song. Warriors Code by Dropkick Murphy.
Brent
Man, the super. The boys are on it tonight.
Tyler
All right.
Brent
No one's. No one's requesting Michael Eddie Murphy.
Tyler
Thank God they got over. Thanks for reminding us.
Brent
I know. I almost hesitate.
Mike
It's crazy that no one might not have to sing.
Brent
20 bucks.
Don
Holy folk back in says, Brent, is it true that Delta has five star chefs on staff and you get five course meals three times a day? Best deployment meal or go to meal. Closing song. Pennywise, bro. Him.
Tyler
How much? 20?
Brent
Yeah.
Don
10 bucks.
Brent
We got something. They're. They're actually army cooks and they go to colon and they send them to actual culinary schools. Like the same way you would send, you know, operators to race car schools or like the bet, you know, Red Bull jumping schools. Like, they sent us to the best schools. But they do the same thing for. For our support, support guys. They send them to the best schools for their mos to be the best at their job. And so our. Our cooks are amazing.
Tyler
I heard somebody say on a podcast recently, I cannot remember what it was, but they were like, oh, it was. Jimmy Watson said the difference between the Marines and the Navy SEALs, he was like, and the Marines, it sucks. It sucks. And then you go back and it sucks. Everything sucks. It's like the Navy seals. Yeah. You might go on a three day off, it sucks. But then you're going back to a little bit more luxury and big boy rules. And, you know, I. I got.
Brent
I got a custom omelet every. Every morning that I wanted one.
Tyler
You know what? But so does half the army deployed too. You know, those pogs get.
Brent
Oh, but they. They got that. That from kbr.
Tyler
Yeah. Oh, you got your.
Brent
They got that from kbr. And they only got clearances and they only got that while they were deployed. Yes, but then. But no, not to take away from that. Those KBR chow halls were amazing. Amazing.
Mike
Order every morning.
Tyler
Wait, so at work, Conus, did you guys have good meals there too?
Brent
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
Tyler
Yeah.
Mike
Yeah.
Brent
I mean, Conus was in fact deployed. We're not big enough sometimes we had our. Our cooks with us. Sometime times we didn't. But I mean, deployed, we'd eaten, you know, and we're moving around a lot, so, you know, it's. We. We would eat in other, like, army chow halls, but home. Yeah, we ate good. We ate real good.
Don
Ricky rasta says had a 20 bet with a co worker. A delta is a unit, not an MOS and showed him one of Brent's videos explaining it, and he paid up. So now I'm splitting the loop. Thanks, Brent. You're the coolest.
Brent
Oh, yeah. Correct. Yeah. It is not an MOS.
Don
Brent's balloon knot.
Brent
It's an identifier.
Don
Brent's balloon knot. $10. We learned what a balloon knot was last week.
Tyler
I can't believe their name is Bren's Balloon. Can you change these on the reg? Is he stuck with that name?
Don
Okay, here's a twist. What's the zestiest thing? He had us as Zesty. You. You've seen a grown man with a family do.
Brent
That's a good question.
Tyler
Sit down to pee. We came up with a good one for a reason. Sit down, people. We'll get into that.
Don
That's another subject.
Tyler
Yeah, that's another subject. Zestiest thing a family man's ever done.
Don
Vote Democrat.
Tyler
Yes. Yes. Yes. That's a good one.
Brent
Zesty, in my opinion.
Tyler
Yes. Yeah. Like, nobody wants to have a dad right now. No teenager wants to have a. A. A liberal dad. They want to have a real dad. Dads are. My dad had a Bush Cheney sticker on his Tahoe. Question. Nothing.
Don
Nice.
Brent
Oh. Oh, gosh. I hate telling stories sometimes. We were in a team van once, and this guy got. Was. Was. He was. We're here in the States. He had plenty to drink, and for whatever reason, he grabbed another man's junk because he was just, like, messing with him. And the other team guy looked at him, was like, don't touch me there. And he was like. And for whatever reason, he's like, oh, you're stopping to me. And then did it again, which is. I don't know if, like. What?
Mike
You okay?
Brent
Yeah. And they got to the biggest fist fight in a team van in the background. It took the whole van to. To break them up. Up. And it was. And it was over that. So that was. That's probably what I'm going with.
Tyler
Did anybody inquire why? He did.
Brent
Was just. He was just drunk.
Tyler
Oh, okay.
Brent
Yeah. Yeah.
Tyler
Messing with your buddy.
Brent
And they didn't want to mess with your buddy.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
Too far. Yeah. And. And took it far. I don't know why. I don't know what went through his mind. I was like, this is how there's so many different ways to mess with a man's dick. Yeah. It was like, oh yeah, I'm. I'm manly enough. I'll do it twice. I guess I was like, I don't think that's what it took.
Tyler
Gay chicken to another level.
Brent
Oh, man. Oh, they get into a Fist.
Don
Josh Hendricks. 20 bucks says Brandt and Taylor, if y' all had to fight a crocodile in knee deep water but. Or a tiger in a 12 by 12 room, which would you choose? Both are super aggressive. Bonus you have a pool noodle or a phone book to defend yourself with.
Brent
I got this. You got one.
Tyler
They're both usually one's ridiculous, the other, they're just awful scenarios.
Brent
They're awful scenarios. This is what I'm going with with. As a Florida man, I've seen enough alligator wranglers to note this. They get tired real quick and they're the same cold blooded. Yeah, they get tired real quick. So you only have to mess with them long enough to tire them out that time. Yeah, that's right. Then it's knee deep water. Like you can, you can control them in knee deep water. You ain't tired out of tiger. You ate tired of the tiger.
Mike
What do you want, a phone book or a pool noodle though?
Tyler
Noodle to more distraction like this. You can distract.
Brent
More standoff. Yeah. You know, even though this is colorful, they're like, hey, yeah, yeah, I'm going crocodile. You say noodle, crocodile, and I think, I think I'm. I think I'm coming out on that.
Tyler
Have you ever, have you ever been to Gatorland in Orlando?
Brent
Oh yeah. Oh Yeah.
Tyler
I love 17 foot crocodiles staring at you. And the tour guide was like, he would eat you right now for sure. They're not. They're not docile.
Brent
Do you remember those old videos, the Faces of Death videos parachuted into the crockpit. I know you remember those. Drew, do you remember the Faces of Death videos?
Don
Oh, yeah, yeah. Some were real, some were fake. Yeah, I remember.
Tyler
Yes, yes, yes. Some are real.
Brent
YouTube. Before there was YouTube, there was the VHS. And every, every teenager wanted to get a hold of this sadistic Faces of Death. Yeah.
Don
I don't know how old I was when I first saw that, but when I first saw it, that when I was done with the movie, I felt a little sick to my stomach.
Tyler
Yeah, yeah. Watching all that death, they. But it's funny you bring that up. I don't know why if this is what jogged your memory, but there's A. One of the first phases of death. The guy parachutes into a crockpit. But I believe that's one of the fake ones.
Brent
Oh, really?
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
How could it be fake? They didn't have, like, good, like, CGI back then.
Tyler
Dude, I'm telling you, they were, like, reenacted. Drew's absolutely right. Some of them were, like, reenactments of death. They were real, like the moon, like, different characters.
Don
Now, when you were a kid, like the moonlight. When you were a kid, you didn't know? Yeah, so I didn't know until late, like, when I. When I was an adult. And I watched it again, I'm like, wait a minute. Some of this stuff ain't real.
Brent
Right? I mean, if you really think about it, like, how is someone going to parachute into alligator land? Like, there's no. Like, there's no way for you to get.
Mike
While the video cameras are.
Brent
While a video camera. Yeah, you're doing great.
Don
Tom didn't have video phones back then. Not everybody was carrying around a camera.
Brent
I don't know. Yeah, I gotta think about that for. I gotta. I gotta see it again. I haven't thought about Faces of Death until now. I don't know. Last time I thought about that, somebody.
Mike
Probably uploaded the YouTube.
Tyler
That's just Instagram Explorer page now. You want to hit our commercial break, Drew, and then we'll go back to super chats.
Don
All right, let's do it.
Brent
Hey, guys, I want to introduce our latest sponsor, Brotherhood blades. They're made four cops and first responders by cops. They make it the way they do because they know what the job means. Everything is handmade or machined in the usa. Their blades are made to be used and abused because they have some of the best super steels offered. With the use of super steels, general care is limited. You can use it and forget about it without the fear of rusting something first responders are good at. Lifetime warranties come with every blade that cover pretty much anything other than losing your blade or using it to perform outlandish tasks that you wouldn't usually use the blade for. Probably like using it as a screwdriver, something we've all done. They have a lifetime sharpening. You only pay one way shipping. If you want to head over to their custom page, your imagination is their limitation. They'll try anything once they've outfitted numerous teams without blades and have customized the blades to their specifications, including custom lasering sheath, color schemes and sheath attachments. Head on over to brotherhoodblades.com and get you one. And by the way, I'm not just a spokesman for them, I'm a customer. I carry theirs every day with me and I wouldn't be talking about them if I didn't trust their product promo code.
Tyler
Antihero10.
Brent
Cerakote is what we are known for, but we do a lot more. Howe Arms is a disabled veteran owned business specializing in custom firearm creation and gunsmithing. Richard Howe, the company's founder, is a two tour army combat veteran of the Afghanistan conflict. After his service, Richard earned his degree in marketing and founded Howell Arms Using both the skills from his time in the army and his college degree. Richard's goal for how arms is to redesign and customize firearms that are both reliable and combat proven. Our entire team is comprised solely of disabled veterans or family members. This is not a self feature but a choice to help other veterans transition into civilian life with a purpose and support network.
Tyler
Bunch of them on there. All right guys, we're back and I got to give a quick shout out to Flatline Fiber Company. Since their founding 2019, they have strived to create the highest quality gear with real world functionality. Trusted by SWAT teams, high level military units, police agencies and civilian shooters across the globe, they make gear you can trust. So if you go to flatlinefiber company.com youm can find all kinds of really good stuff. They have everything from slings, sling hardware, they call it the pimp, the medical pouch, dump pouches and baseline bags and even ear pro wraps. So go flatlinefibercompany.com and use promo code Anti Hero and you'll get 15 off your purchase. Yes.
Brent
Yeah, I just, I just ran through the box they sent us and looked at them actually. I really like their slings.
Tyler
Really?
Brent
I really do.
Tyler
See guys, I didn't even push him on him. I wanted him to find it.
Brent
Yeah, and I like the designs they have. It's, it's the appropriate amount of padding. Sometimes it's just too much padding. It actually becomes, you know, like, like, like anything else in your gear. Like you want it, you want it sleek, you want it lightweight, but big enough that, that, that it has to be. And that's exactly what those slings are. I'm gonna take one. Sure. Maybe.
Tyler
Yeah, sure.
Brent
Maybe. Those are two. Those are two different answers. Sure, maybe.
Mike
As soon as I said it I, I thought about this hook that I have on the. Like I already took 118 slings hanging on.
Brent
It's definitely mine.
Mike
No, I've got some, I got some of Flatline Fiber Coat stuff I've got. Got that one of the pimp first aid pouches and one of the dump pouches that my buddy Duffy.
Brent
All right.
Mike
Designed for.
Tyler
But yeah, like anything. Obviously there's a million strap companies out there. But you know, Flatline Fiber company.
Mike
When he says strap, he's talking about slings.
Tyler
I call them straps. But yeah, they support us all other things Straps not strap ons.
Brent
Don you strap on your weapon.
Tyler
Flatline strap on Company clarify is for next episode that next level sponsorship. Let's go to super chats.
Brent
We wonder why our videos get pulled.
Don
Sun Wukong says word is Israel just started strikes against Iran. Yeah, all right, we're. We're on that. Brady B. Says finally got some time during work to tune in. Keep up the great work, boys. By the way, Monday's episode was legit as frick.
Brent
Oh, you know what? Since we're talking about that real quick, I don't, I don't know if you saw. It was only one comment, but one comment said something about Dobbins. He was like, oh, like it's so. I hope you guys get roasted for this. Like, he's a known liar in the community. Jay Dobbins. And, and, and uh, it was a comment in the super chat that, that he was in and they were like. And it was proven or not. He don't even think. He didn't say the word proven. He was like. And the ATF investigated it and he burned down his own house. And I'm like, dude, for starters, other people have been gotten by people. So it's not like we're above it. However, and this is what I replied to him that in the super chat, if you're going to do that, you better do what we do. That's right. And you better come with some evidence. The trust me citing, trust me bro is not going to do it. He went. He went silent. So.
Tyler
Wow. Yeah, he sounds like somebody in the ATF that wants us to believe that they didn't.
Brent
Yeah. And I'm not saying that like that you can't. That we can't be snowed. But so far, almost everyone that that we've outed has been the same type of personality. The same type of type of personality. It's not the ultra humble person. And even though Tim tries to be humble, ain't nothing humble about that guy. It's the fake is humbleness that you can see right through. Jay couldn't have been any more genuine. I'm not saying that he couldn't have noticed. I would Be so surprised if he did and if anyone thinks he did provide us evidence.
Tyler
Yeah. And I used to know him.
Brent
Yeah.
Tyler
He doesn't. He didn't. I mean, I don't want to say he didn't want to come on here, but he doesn't want to go. He's not that guy. He doesn't want to brag. He was very appreciative that we had him on. He still to stay. Told me to tell you how awesome we are, how accommodating we are. He's like the entire group of people that you have there is so supportive and amazing. So he's a great dude.
Brent
He did nothing but talk about how. I mean, he told stories because the stories are the stories. But he always gave credit to everyone else. Like, man, I wasn't the only guy there. I mean, just over the top humbleness and I love that about them.
Don
All right. Guinness and eleven says, did you guys hear about the former bat boys from two Running guns and stealing stuff from jblm?
Brent
No, I haven't heard that yet, Don. Why would your boys do that?
Mike
They're bored, probably.
Brent
This is what happens. That's what happens when wars go away. You got to. You got to keep the Rangers throughout history.
Mike
They always disbanded the Battalion Lions because they couldn't handle them.
Brent
Yeah, after.
Mike
After the war's over, you better find something for me to do.
Brent
Not a. Not a huge hockey fan, but I will give an update real quick. The Florida Panthers are up three nothing right now. And to get into the Edmonton Oilers.
Tyler
We'Re like a fallen news broadcast.
Brent
So, yeah, I care a little bit more because it's kind of like a us versus Canada, you know, type Stanley Cup. And it doesn't hurt that they're from Florida, so. Right up three nothing pulling for the Panthers. Let's go.
Don
From the boys with no snow.
Brent
Bet you don't boo our anthem.
Tyler
Yeah.
Don
Brody Martin. 50 bucks. Thank you, man. I was lifeguard one summer and folks who are drowning act all sorts of crazy. Cag Daddy. You ever have a hostage rescue where the hostage fought back during the rescue?
Brent
No. No. They're so happy to hear people speak English, it's. It's not even funny.
Don
Rudy Botello says, Brad, if you had to choose one to help you take out the others, who are you choosing? Frank Castle. The next the Netflix version.
Tyler
I like how they have to specify.
Don
John Wick or Blade.
Tyler
Are they vampires? Because if they're not vampires, then Blade's not gonna do much good.
Brent
I hate living in and fantasy world. Like there There are legit heroes you, you could align me up with, but I'm going with the ultra fake John Wick and not. Not out of popularity. I know everyone loves John Wick, to be honest with you. It's gonna. It's gonna hurt some people's heart. I'm not a huge fan of the John Wick movies. I'm just not. I get it. It's movies. I mean, I. Yeah, it's. It's entertainment. It can't be ultra real. But I can't have like one dude just taking out 17 people at a time. Like, there has to be some sort of.
Tyler
It gave me the vibe of like, they took the old school martial arts stuff and they mix gunplay with it because it's so over the top. It's coordinated. Like, you can tell that. Obviously that's coordinated. It's Hollywood. But it's like I'm, you know, I don't. I've never shot 17 people, so.
Brent
Yeah, I don't. Tom Cruise has been a little bit odd and let's say like the 10 or 15 years he's got from. Man, that guy's off his rocker and he's. He's odd and hard to like to. It kind of turned the corner to me. Remember, he's the fat guy on Dancing on What's that Jungle? On Tropic Thunder. Yeah, like, that was Tom Cruise. I don't know. I might like him again. I like all the Mission Impossible movies. Really. I. I really. I should say, I like them all, but that, that type of. It's. It's over the top, it's entertaining, but, like, all of it is kind of grounded in some sort of like, reality of like.
Don
Yeah, it's a team effort.
Brent
Yeah. And it's a team effort.
Tyler
Not.
Brent
Yeah, not like that aspect of it, if that makes sense.
Tyler
It does. Because, like, look at the Fast and the Furious movies. They're just so over.
Don
Just so crazy stuff.
Brent
I can't. Yeah, they actually lose me.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
It's so over the top.
Don
All right, Jacob Schneider says Brentosaurus Rex. Any info on the new Staccato HD being in. Being tested by the unit? Turler, would you carry a Staccato on duty?
Tyler
I've never got one.
Brent
I'll. I'll talk when I know it's no longer in use there. And I don't even say when it is or it's not, but I guess I, I am now, by saying this, I don't like, talk about talking about unit guns until. Because. Because it's talking about the capability of the unit. So I don't like to talk about what, what, what they currently have because as, as small as it may sound, if one person here talks about this gun and another person somewhere else talks about this gun like the enemy is watching and they will slowly compile all this data and they will know what the, what the unit is carrying, what they're capable of, and how to defeat it them. So I don't like talking a whole lot about what the unit's carrying now.
Don
Tyler, you gonna carry a staccato on duty?
Tyler
Yeah, I don't, I don't think patrol is allowed to carry staccatos. They usually stick to Glock. Do any patrol carry cicadas?
Drew
We're allowed to. And I really, I disagree with it. To me, it's not a.
Brent
Why is that? Just out of curiosity.
Drew
I think under stretch train it a lot, but most cops don't train. Yeah, a cool fancy staccato. It's got the beaver tail that you have to activate and it's got a safety. Yeah, most cops have shot no safety guns their entire career. You pull it out, it goes bang every time.
Tyler
That's true.
Drew
Now, under stress, what happens is cops don't train. None of them. They get this fancy gun, they go the range, they zero it, and then they don't pull out their holster and shoot it for months. Months, Months. Now they have a beaver tail and a safety to overcome under the most high stress, unpredictable situation they're ever going to encounter. The Glock, the Sig, the Smith and Wesson, all those guns are going to go bang every time. No problems.
Brent
How does, so how does it work for you guys? You guys get like a list of guns you can carry? Is it like, how does, how does that work?
Tyler
It depends on the agency, I'd say because like I was so surprised that his had that ours does not allow patrol to carry anything else. Now they'll. They'll bring out five guns when the contract's up and they'll bring out a tne squad to come out to the range and vote on it. But at the end of the day, it's who, who knows admin who's getting a little piece of that, that, that pie.
Brent
But yeah, yeah, I think we've talked about on the show before. I feel like it's been a while. It. It surprised me. Like my cousin was worked for West Palm and he was a 90s cop when he started. I think he put in 30 years. Good for him. But he had to Buy his. He had to buy his first gun.
Tyler
That's crazy to me.
Brent
And it's crazy to me that it wasn't. It was for a long time, even larger departments, you know, cops had to buy their own guns.
Tyler
That's back when they wanted cops and cops wanted to be cops.
Mike
Or it was easier for them just to give a guy a stipend or something like that.
Brent
And I was like, clothing allowance. Yeah. And I was like, did they tell you, like, what caliber, what gun to buy? They're like, no. They're like, if you want Desert Eagle, like, if you want. If you want 50 free rounds a year, you better buy 9 mil. But if you don't want 50 free rounds a year, like, whatever guy I.
Drew
Interviewed, like, that's crazy guy I interviewed last week started in the 2000s, and he still bought his own gun. So you're talking way back.
Mike
I may be wrong, but last time I talked to somebody, that Las Vegas Metro is like that. Like, you buy your own stuff now. They. They tell you what you can and can't.
Tyler
Maybe you can.
Brent
Yeah.
Drew
There's some agency I've talked to where they give you a allowance. Thousand dollars to buy a gun, a holster, all that stuff.
Tyler
I'm gonna put all 1,000 to my gun.
Drew
Yeah. Let's go walk around.
Tyler
Sexiest gun out there.
Mike
I'm just gonna put a lanyard on it.
Don
Prince Balloon, not back in, says, do Delta members ever take.
Brent
Take it.
Don
Take it to the wood line. What if a member gets cocky and he needs to be brought back down to earth?
Mike
Sounds like they take it to the back of the van.
Tyler
Yeah, right.
Brent
I didn't tell you what unit that was in the. No, we. We got the. We got the combatives room. And it is. It is not unheard of for two people to walk. And there's always people training in the combatives room. It's not unheard of for two people to walk in the combatives room. Be like, everybody out. We gotta talk, man.
Tyler
We gotta talk.
Drew
Do you know how awesome law enforcement.
Brent
Would be if we could do that?
Drew
Oh, my God.
Brent
And the combative instructors will. Will stick around.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
And sanction it. Yeah, sanction it. And everyone else will leave.
Tyler
I have a question.
Brent
Yeah?
Tyler
I broke Tick Tock when I asked you this question is go to our Tick tock.
Brent
And it. I already know which one you're talking about. It's the most simple, odd of questions.
Tyler
Here's another one. At what level in the military do you have to stop tying off your sensitive items because you're not an idiot anymore.
Brent
I thought you're going with the picking up brass.
Mike
I did.
Brent
That one got a lot of views.
Tyler
It's almost at a million views on our Tick tock. Go. Look, it's pinned.
Brent
What's. At what point do you have to.
Tyler
Stop tying off with 550 cord? Because you said 550 cord. And I was like, oh, you did.
Brent
And I was like, that's a personal preference. I would say.
Drew
I forgot we did that till you just said it like now and bring.
Brent
It back to memory. Gosh, I gotta think about my. My kick 13 which held my. Held my crypto that I would tie off that I would top. That was. But it was on me. No one made me tie it off.
Tyler
You just don't want to be that guy.
Brent
Yeah. Yeah. So. And SF, I didn't tie off anything outside of my kick 13. And at the unit. The only thing I. I tied off of sorts was my nods on a. Because. But they came with the helmet at that point where they. The like the bungees came to your nods. And that's really for jumping. Yeah, but yeah, I don't. I. I do remember a story of a unit guy going into a. A hindsight with a ranger in Iraq. And some passerbys were like walking. So the ranger like pulls out his. His pistol because they were. They had long guns and pistols. And the unit guy looks over at him and he's got his. He couldn't pull his pistol all the way out because he had it dummy tied.
Mike
Yeah.
Brent
And I guess he had just like dummy tied it like for like for the. It was like a new sop. So they. So he dummy tied it. Make sure his arms late. He's like, what. What are we doing here?
Mike
You better fix that.
Tyler
Yeah, you better fix that.
Don
All right.
Brent
Oh, little brother.
Don
This is either Jablom or Jablomi. Shadix 4.99 finally made it to alive. Taylor. How much do I. I need to donate to get strip searched?
Tyler
I love it.
Don
That's a zesty super chat.
Drew
I think he would do it for free. I don't think you got. I don't think you have to pay anything.
Tyler
Oh, cavity searches cost a little bit of money.
Drew
Just bail money. That's.
Don
Jumped on me, boys. Sorry. I'll get it there. Wait, we.
Brent
We.
Don
We've stacked up some super chats.
Tyler
Yeah, we'll do every man. I hate doing this.
Don
I might have lost some because can't go back anymore. All right. Says Bjorn has Brent trained with Israeli sof. Like your mom. How legit are they compared to western SOF units?
Brent
I, I have and they're good.
Don
Don't call me pappy. Ice is handing out free vasectomies. Just FYI noise.
Drew
Oh yeah, they hit that dude in nuts.
Don
Justin Carling with $200 tonight. Eddie Murphy party all the time. It says Brent Tyler guest at what distant. Oh, their question sorry. At what distance is a pistol optic become a game changer. I'm good inside 10 yards with irons. Optics are just weird for me. Government Desantis Government for the win with the most terminal subsonic Florida man in a car for the win over 8.6 black.
Tyler
So I want to be the first one to point out he didn't say sing it.
Don
He didn't.
Brent
Correct.
Don
It's good.
Brent
Correct. Yes.
Don
But it's 200 bucks.
Brent
I've, I've always said this and this is generally true. I would go a little bit inside 10 but it, it depends on you and how much you train. But let's go five or maybe even three. 1. There's no need to get a dot on someone that close. Iron sights up close will always be quicker.
Mike
Well at those instances you don't need anything.
Brent
Three and five. You really don't point. You need to aim. It's gotten like a instinctive shooting. I will try to. I say I don't aim. I will get my front sights on. On. If we're talking about a people size target, the only thing I'll put up is is is my front sight and I'll put my front sight where and that you can, you can acquire like really, really quick. What, what distance is the optic become a game changer. 1525 for sure. But I will give you. It's not just a distance thing. It's. It's a, it's a lighting thing as well. So even if the street lights are on and even if you have the glow into the, the dark. Was it iridium or tritium? Gosh, iridium. The iridium cell phone, the tritium. They're not easy to pick up at night. So you're really not that useful at, at night without an optic.
Drew
What about a hostage shot?
Brent
Yeah, that's where you put the dot.
Drew
On and train it. And now you got to take I bet that 5 yard hostage shot with iron sight so is a little harder.
Brent
You got it.
Drew
So that's where I would say I optic all the time. It's probably because you can still do the front sight drive or even use your optic to drive on a Close target.
Brent
I don't, for a hostage shot, I don't, I don't need it at 5 or 10. I mean I, I can, I can.
Drew
You don't.
Brent
Yeah, yeah.
Mike
Comes in useful though, I think.
Brent
Yeah, I say that with. So I, I just, I just did a pistol class with some, I will call it like intermediate people. It doesn't matter if you have a red dot or a, or iron sights, the amount of people with bad trigger control or anticipating the round is it, it doesn't matter. It doesn't. So unless you're shooting and, and you, and you have trained to shoot to pull the trigger correctly slowly and then, and then slightly faster, it, it doesn't matter. All that at close range has more to do with trigger control than your sights.
Drew
100%. The only way my devil's advocate is obviously the dot is you're seeing everything. Whereas the iron sight, even on a hostage shot, you'll have to zoom in now you got movement, you got a hostage. So with that dot floating and you're looking at the whole picture through the dot, I think it makes that short shot a little easier.
Brent
But yeah.
Mike
Well, I mean.
Brent
What did you say? What's that? How many yards did you set your pistol at?
Tyler
That's a good question.
Brent
You know, you say that I don't even like set it at a particular yard. I mean the last time I went and just double checked my zero because it's, it's generally no make a, gotta make a short answer. 7, 10, 12. Like I just, I just generally go there, you know, get that, that unmarked distance. Like ah, this is about right. And I shoot. I don't. The pistol to me is not a, like a three round group. I was, I will shoot no less than 5, 6, 7 maybe like when I, when I know it's, it's around that 1 inch pace that I want it to be. I'll send, I'll send a lot of, of groupings of, of bullets to group that. That way at least five, if not seven or 10. And then you can really see if that whole grouping went a little right or a little high. It really, really takes that way. I only do that with the pistol, I don't do that with the rifle.
Mike
So, so I teach a lot of red dot pistol classes and straight up I believe that you can shoot just as fast with an optic as you can with irons, but more accurately. So that when you speed up you can shoot just as accurately but faster at all distances. I believe from even, even in the, the distance that you don't necessarily even need sights. When you drive the gun out, you'll see the dot and you will know that it's where it should be or good enough. And if you need to slow down and make that hostage type shot or that, that more refined, you know, shot, it's there for you all the way back to, you know, I mean, in my class, students shoot at 25. We don't really go much farther than that.
Tyler
Yeah.
Mike
But all that up close shooting and stuff like that, we do a lot of that stuff. And what I find is once guys start to get used to some of the stuff that I'm teaching them, they get faster and more accurate at the same time.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
And you know, to me that's, that's the goal is to close that gap between the speed and accuracy. It just works. I mean it's 20, 25. We put on optics on our pistols now.
Brent
Yeah. And absolutely.
Mike
It's just, it's the way, it's the way the future, it's here to stay.
Brent
One of my pistols has a front sight on it. One doesn't. One is only reliant on, on the red dot. One has a front sight on it and no rear sights. I, it's, it's personal preference. I don't look at someone with, with iron sights and a, and a, and an optic and be like, oh, that's, that's stupid. But my personal preference is I don't like rear sights. I know people like. Well, it's a good backup site. I just, I, I don't worry, I don't worry about it. And I don't like anything muddying up what's in, inside, inside my, my window. So I don't want that rear sight in there. I don't want to fight with it. I just want a clear view. That's just, just a little, little tip.
Drew
In the law enforcement world. They made it. They have to. I mean that for you. Yeah, I get that too.
Mike
Yeah. Look at it. It's like, why not have the backups?
Brent
I just told you, if you're.
Drew
That'S the gospel.
Brent
Well, the other thing.
Mike
But the other thing is if you're threat focused, you don't have to worry. You won't even see those irons. They won't be in your way because you're not looking at them or for them, you know.
Drew
And my only thing with that would be if you're missing. We're shooting at paper. You're seeing your misses. If you're in a real gunfight and you're missing. With the optic, you can actually see where the optic is.
Mike
Exactly.
Drew
If you have to. If you're in a stressful situation, you have to slow down and make a important shot. You're not gonna be able to catch your front sight and get back. You're gonna see the optic going this way or this way. Go. I'm missing. Well, whatever you're doing.
Mike
But you're gonna know when you jerk the trigger.
Drew
On paper, we can see the misses. On a body or a real target, you're not going to be able to see the misses, but you can kind of see where your dot is going. Not that anybody's gonna be thinking about that anyway.
Mike
Nor should you be looking for holes in the.
Brent
Yes.
Drew
Correct.
Mike
You should be.
Drew
Yes.
Mike
Admiring your handiwork through that site.
Brent
Correct.
Drew
Watching them. The person.
Brent
Which.
Drew
There was a really cool hostage shot that went on the Internet today. Or not a hostage shot. A really cool head shot that went on the Internet today. From a female.
Brent
From a female.
Drew
Amazing shot.
Brent
And. And somehow give credit, Pro Sue. Yeah. She made that shot. A guy was coming towards her with a machete.
Tyler
You said that to me.
Drew
It's in that. It's in the.
Brent
And she was super calm about it. Made the shot and then was super calm afterwards. You watched the whole.
Drew
Did you watch the whole video from the time she got out of her. She drove. You could see her.
Brent
I mean, just not. Not that. The whole video. Like. Like before the shot. Yes. No.
Drew
Yeah. Even arriving on scene, you can see the composure. And she rolls up, jumps out, makes.
Brent
The commands which has to do about her mentality. She. She both trained. She was ready for it. And when she was. And when the opportunity arose, she did her job.
Drew
She had planned or had gone through killing somebody in her head and she was going to do it. And she hesitated. Not at all. It was a great, great effort.
Don
She probably has an ex husband. All right, we got to run through the super chats because of super chats to get through. And we've got to talk about the. The nation burning down again.
Tyler
And also really quick. It's been a while.
Brent
Stop.
Tyler
Drew. It's been a week, I think maybe two, since I've had a Habana.
Brent
Yeah.
Tyler
If you are looking to buy FRCC cigars, but you're not a cigar guy and you're kind of like intimidated. The alphas are the way to go. They are. Well, how would you do? I don't know how to describe it.
Don
It's hard to describe a habano.
Tyler
It's just my it's my. I've had. Because I went two weeks being a. A freeloader and I was taking cigars as they were handed to me. And I never got an Alpha until back just now. And it's, you know, a guy I know.
Don
All right. It says, dude, duder. Says who wins Two rangers with batons, verse. Two grunt marines with softball sized rocks.
Tyler
I mean, the rangers versus run Marines.
Brent
Yeah, I'm going Rangers. Going Rangers in this. In the silly made up world. Why I don't get where I don't get to see both of them.
Tyler
Yeah, I'm gonna go Marines. I think they're. If they said, hey, Marines, these rangers got rocks. I don't know if you should fight them. Those marines are gonna already be gone.
Brent
Well, I hope they have those rocks against the protesters.
Don
All right. Have you ever shot a pistol with circle only reticle? And why is it superior?
Mike
This one's the one that's supposed to make me laugh. This is a friend of mine.
Brent
Oh, okay.
Don
I was wondering, why is this? Like, that's a leading question, buddy.
Mike
So what he does was he uses the hollow sun optics where you can turn the dot off and use the circle eotech style reticle only. And he has a pretty good system to where it works and works quite fast.
Brent
I have one of those. But even that eotech style system and the circle with like the little crossing still has a dot in the middle of it.
Mike
You can turn it off.
Brent
You can turn it off. You actually didn't know that?
Mike
Yeah. And yeah, Louis, that guy has a. He is that guy. But he's got a pretty good system for it. He's got some pretty good points about it, especially for defensive type use. At about 25 yards, that reticle is almost exactly the same size as the black portion of a B8 target. So it's really not as big as you think it is. And for center mass defensive shooting.
Don
So like when someone's 25 yards away from me and they're coming and I'm like, wait a minute, hold on, I gotta get this. I gotta get this hollow sun setting on the. There, we got it.
Mike
Yeah, yeah.
Brent
Just keeps it there. No, I would argue just because you can doesn't mean you should.
Mike
Well, I think I might have told you that, Lewis.
Brent
Okay.
Mike
But you know, he. He gets good results with it.
Brent
All right. At the end of the day. Yeah, yeah. We're results oriented people.
Mike
We tease each other about this. So he paid 10 bucks to mess with me on.
Don
All right, Brandon, Bailey says, Brent, do you unit guys wear the beret from where they came from or a green beret regardless of background, you wear the.
Brent
Beret of whence you came. Even though it is a special forces unit, it's a joint unit. So you wear the brave once you came everyday.
Don
American says, did you guys watch the Larry Vickers pod on Sean Ryan? Please tell me he was one guy on that show who wasn't be sing.
Mike
Yes.
Don
BSing.
Brent
I have not. Those, those four, those four hour episodes are a lot to ask. So I have not. But I would, I would know in the group chats I was in because guys would watch that and go off on them and just knowing them, you know, from other things that I've seen him on, I would be highly surprised if, if he was BSing. But I. But I have not seen it.
Don
See Flim Nasty says, have you all been invited to do the Sean Ryan show? And Bent, were you in the same team as Jonathan Dunbar?
Brent
I was on the team with John Dunbar. He's a really good dude and yeah, I think I'll do maybe do the Sean Ryan show at at some point.
Don
Officer Dangle, Delta Force TK and his chef Boyard D Beret was on point in dc.
Tyler
We got sent that video probably a thousand times.
Don
Let's see. LA car concept says, have you shot a pistol with circle only reticle and why is it the best? There it is again.
Mike
He put that up twice. He thought we skipped it.
Brent
You really want to get that one across?
Mike
He's been in our group chat going, did you do my question yet? Yeah, we got you man.
Don
Sack full of nades. 50 bucks. He's always giving 50 bucks.
Tyler
I've heard you say sack full of nades.
Brent
50 bucks.
Don
I know every time. Wouldn't. Wouldn't let me post my comment here. So just throw it in the chat earlier. No big here for the boys anyway. All right. Love it, brother. Tim Huns, 20 bucks you can wrap the pool noodle around the croc's mouth and tie a knot since they have little opening strength.
Tyler
Also, also, can you tie a pool noodle into a knot? Understood.
Don
Also, your previous guest, Matt Casey teaches a course at Homestead Training Center. Signing up. Great guest.
Brent
He was a good guest.
Don
Oli Fook back in again. Google won't let me change my screen name to oat milk drinking. Did you guys look into Space Force special operations yet? Pennywise broham for 10 bucks.
Brent
I've not. Have you heard about that?
Tyler
That I heard about it.
Brent
Yeah. They brought it last week or Two weeks ago. Space Force Special Operations. I'm not.
Tyler
That's a real branch, right?
Brent
Space Force is a real branch. Guardians of the final of the Guardians of the last Frontier.
Tyler
Is that sounds like a. A sci fi book. Guardians of the Last Frontier, I assure you.
Mike
Star Trek. Yeah.
Brent
Yeah. Some nerd colonel came up with that. Got it approved. Approved. And every enlisted guy that, that heard that I was like oh why, why are you doing.
Mike
What you gotta remember is they're enlisted guys in the space.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
They're like yeah, maybe. And that's what they refer to each other as. Like what's up? Guardian. Good morning, Guardian. Instead of like soldier and marine or guardian is there their term. That's pretty awesome.
Tyler
I wonder what, I wonder what their, their nicknames are going to be like. Jarhead.
Brent
Oh man.
Tyler
Yeah, you know like space cadet. There you go. That's it right there.
Don
Joe Saunders says, since Brett Brent brought it up, you are non citizen in an American city participating in a violent riot and waving foreign flags. Doesn't that make you an enemy combatant? Just saying Rock on roll on anti hero.
Brent
Makes sense to me. Makes sense to me.
Tyler
A lot of requests for squad casts for the boy stickers.
Brent
Stickers. Oh yeah. We should at least stickers.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
Still you want to get shirts? Yeah. Still fighting for a tank top.
Tyler
It's got to be a tank top too.
Brent
Yeah. I don't know why I'm tank top, but yeah.
Don
Vanessa's in the chat. Question for Don. What's your take on nods versus flashlights for SWAT teams?
Mike
You gotta have both. But you know if you don't have nods, you can't see in the dark without a flashlight.
Don
But yeah, she brings up because she's seen Brent have a lot of discussion while training. Hi to everybody from Vanessa.
Brent
All right, here, there, there's my what, what I wish would happen. There's reality. They should, they should absolutely have nods and they should, they should work under nods. That's what they should do. And they all, they all fight for nods and they all spent our tax money on, on really nice nods and at pails to go with them. And then they don't train to do it. So that sounds like a hit on them. But when you work with them enough, you also start realizing most SWAT teams are not full time SWAT teams. Even the full time SWAT teams, Miami Dade srt, those guys are so operational when you know they, their time isn't protected for training. So they're so operational. When are they going to get the time to use the nods? So the reality is they should use nods. But if they don't have time to train under nods, then you, then you can't use knots. You have to fight for that training or, or get that training set aside for you somehow, some way.
Mike
It's not a magic pill.
Tyler
It.
Brent
And, and this is one of the things that, you know, sometimes I gotta step back from, you know, from my, my high horse, if you will. You forget, in the military, I spent so much time under NODS at Big. At first I was like, oh, it's easy. Just put on these nods, let's go to work. It's just like, you know, it's just like not having nods. It's just, it's just green now. But the reality is it's not, it is not the same. If you don't work with NODS a lot, it's super uncomfortable. You run into your teammates, you run into walls. The spatial awareness isn't there. It takes time.
Tyler
You know what's cool though is that it's dark half the day. So you can.
Drew
That's what I was thinking while you're saying that is, I mean, you don't.
Brent
Have to train a nice and out.
Mike
On half the action.
Brent
I know, but if, but if, if you don't have the. I agree with what you guys are saying. The devil's advocate of that is if you don't have time to train on it. Like one, like.
Tyler
Well, that's what I'm saying is that how do you not have time to train on it? It's not like you have to go to a special facility that's only dark. I mean, you can.
Brent
Yeah, it's dark.
Mike
What he said is some of these guys have so much other stuff they're doing. They're so busy.
Tyler
Oh yeah, yeah. You need to prioritize, but some just don't. If you don't train at night, are.
Mike
Starting to train more and stuff like that. I mean, I know a guy that, you know, helps people do that.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
And, and stuff. But no, you're, you're right, it. You're not going to. You can use them, but you're not going to get the maximum benefit out of them.
Brent
Yeah. If you're not comfortable, train.
Mike
If you don't get some sort of training too, because you're not going to figure it. I mean, you'll figure some things out.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
But the easy button is learn from somebody who can give you that head start and then incorporate them into your ops as you can and incorporate them into your training as much as possible or else it's just wasted taxpayer money.
Brent
I will say this looks cool with that as well. Is even though they all have them. Them. And I, I believe you know what you guys are saying is then if, if you want to train on them, you'll find time to train them. And I, and I, I kind of do agree with that. The problem is. And I run, I run this team from, from SWAT team to SWAT team. Not all guys on the SWAT team are bought in on nods. And so when, when half of the old timers aren't really bought in, then it's. It's really not going to happen until, until some of those guys that aren't completely.
Tyler
Because what happens is you guys are absolutely right. You go put on knots for your first run. You're moving at like a snail's pace and you feel super slow, but you have to train slow.
Brent
Right.
Tyler
Because it's. It's just a whole new thing.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
Well, and it also does give you the opportunity to move slower because you.
Brent
Can see in the dark. That's right. It's a superpower.
Mike
You know, we say it's superpower for people with good credit scores.
Don
All right. We gotta move fast. Genesis 11. The Bat Boys have both Bruce Wayne 500,000 bonds each. And they also had an MG42.
Brent
LOL. MG42. MG42. And you guys got it. It's what? Hitler's Buzzsaw. Why do you know so much about Hitler?
Mike
He knows about machine guns.
Brent
No, you know, it was.
Drew
I collect memorabilia.
Mike
I got you.
Don
He said safe. All right. Just an average man says email Brent. A possible research topic of a non awarded POW in Iraq.
Brent
Possibility research topic of a non awarded POW in Iraq. Yeah.
Tyler
How much?
Brent
I'll see what that means. A. A non awarded POW in Iraq. I don't know. Okay. I'm. I'm already interested in that story. Yeah. Look up MG42.
Don
All right. Zulu Whiskey.
Brent
Unique gun for them to have. Whiskey.
Don
Whiskey gives public service announcement. Says how arms Facebook bat Super chat not working.
Tyler
Oh, he put. He got his bat for his son Seracoted by.
Don
Right.
Brent
Right.
Don
Yeah.
Brent
You see the photo? They just posted a photo of it. He posted a photo of it on his. Can you show it to me?
Tyler
Can you send it to us?
Brent
It's on Al arms Instagram right now.
Tyler
Oh, okay. I'll look it up.
Brent
Yeah. Let the guys working do extra steps. The guys on the couch.
Drew
Thanks for. Thanks for coming.
Don
You sit there and be comfortable. Sit there and be comfortable.
Drew
And he had to even lean up to get in the Mic. He was deterred about that. He's like, what do you mean you can't hear me?
Tyler
I'll send.
Brent
No, I got, I got.
Tyler
I'll send it to Drew. I'll send it to you.
Don
Turn the mic to your.
Brent
I'm old. Old guys.
Don
All right, we got bjorn says which NG SF companies rivaled 320sfg. Also, what made the Florida NGSF company so legit in comparison to other NGSF companies?
Mike
Because it's filled with Florida man.
Brent
Donnelly take a first. First swing at this?
Mike
Well, I don't know. I mean, I would say that the other. Other battalions also had tons of good dudes. So they, you know, you and I had our little, you know, conclave or whatever guys. We had a lot of. A lot of good guys. And, you know, when I. When I first got there, you know, all the team sergeants were. They were kind of the last of what we used to call paper tabbers. Actually, not all of them were. Yeah, but it was that era.
Brent
But those guys were good guys.
Drew
They were actually.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
And they, they, you know, they, you know, even though I came there from the Ranger battalion, and I was still learning lots of great things from these guys, so we had a lot of good mentorship in that. So as. As younger, younger troopers coming in as.
Brent
A safari constructor, I got to see a lot of companies and 20th group come through. And I'm. And I'm. I'm just saying from my time and cultures change, but for my time, a 320 was special. Okay. And I didn't realize how special it was until I saw other companies coming through. I'm not saying they were bad. They were an A320. A120 was a really good one. And B220, and they're right outside of, like, the Baltimore area, so they drew a lot from the D.C. three letter agencies and. And things like that. But I will tell you why I say this. Everywhere I go. Culture. It's just. It's. It's a culture thing. A320 had a bunch of guys that knew the standard and they upheld the standard. And that's why they were better than. Than most active duty companies, because they held the standard. It's that easy.
Mike
There were a lot of guys that they. They legit wanted to be there.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
And, you know, the kind of guys that would rearrange the rest of their life in order to participate and do certain things and. And, you know, go to schools and.
Brent
And when deployments come up, you didn't have guys like oh, no, we're deploying. I just wanted to hang out with the boys on the weekend.
Mike
Like, I'll volunteer to go out.
Brent
Yeah, you had guys volunteering to go and go early and stay late. Like, they genuinely love the job.
Don
All right, at what time do you guys want to do the. The main.
Tyler
Well, we can go. I'm. I'm not going to be a stingy person anymore. We can go to 11. We can go to when. When it ends naturally.
Brent
There you go.
Don
Do we have any Patreon winners to announce later?
Tyler
True.
Brent
This is true.
Don
Just ask him.
Tyler
Drew just on it.
Don
I don't know.
Mike
I mean, the producer.
Don
I'm asking you.
Tyler
He's like, I'm asking.
Brent
They're producing.
Tyler
Yeah. Actually, so what I'm going to do is.
Don
Is that a thing we still do?
Brent
Oh, now he's. Now he's being a jerk.
Tyler
Go ahead and read some super chats and I'll get back to the Patreon.
Don
All right. Super chats. Let's see. We got. No, sorry.
Brent
That1.
Don
Keyboard Warriors, $99. Iran just was attacked. We're not helping the hebs. Is that the Hebrews?
Brent
Yep.
Don
We better help the Hebrews.
Brent
I don't think we need to, to be honest with you. Like. Like, we. We. We already have helped them. The Iron Dome will keep them safe. They.
Don
Yeah, we already helped.
Brent
They. They have our technology.
Don
They think they got it.
Brent
Yeah, yeah, they. They poke the bear without our help or without us sanctioning it. I don't have a problem with that. I don't know why we get in other countries. Business anyway. If they want to do it, then. Then it's. It's on them to. To. To walk the walk and talk and talk.
Don
Now they're our best ally in the Middle east, which is, you know, hotbed of the world. World. And Genesis 12, you know, you bless those who. God will bless those who bless Abraham's children and curse those who curse them. So.
Brent
Yeah. And look at all those other countries that hate Israel. Not a lot of winners in that. Yeah, Struggle, if we're being honest. Struggling. A lot of winners in that circle.
Tyler
So the winner. What we're gonna have. Don't tap that number.
Mike
Ready?
Tyler
Yep, Tap that. All right, so 41. So this is a winner for Semper Suave, a marine and active cop beard and pomade company. They sent us a bunch of stuff to give to you guys. Strictly.
Brent
We.
Tyler
We use their products. I'm not even just saying that. It was sent to me, and I was like, I like this and I just started using it. And then I contacted him. He was like, hey man, what's up? You know, active street cop and, and a veteran marine. So don just hit 41. So that's the care package. And it's a blank spot. So Don hit it again.
Mike
All right.
Drew
Oh, no.
Don
This is real time life.
Tyler
It is. Ross Keenan, you are the winner.
Mike
Oh.
Brent
Huh?
Mike
What?
Tyler
Ross Keenan, winner of Semper Suave beard pomade and beard oil. We send you that along with some other cool stuff. T shirts and stuff like that. If you can get with us us, give us your size and, and we'll get you out a care package from Patreon. Appreciate it, guys. Thank you so much.
Brent
I'm glad you reminded me of that.
Tyler
Look at that.
Brent
I went and, and you know, they, they. He sent us one of these like months ago.
Mike
Yeah.
Brent
And. And I, I use it all the time.
Tyler
Oh, we use it all the time.
Brent
All the time. And shut up. Well, what are you laughing. He's got a.
Tyler
A foot and a half long beard and he thinks because I have a short beard, I can't. I can't use beer pomade.
Brent
He's such a. He's such a beard snob. That's what you are.
Tyler
You're a gatekeeper for beer.
Don
Community certainly has the right. I do all right. You shall not pass Eagleheart says Brent, you ever do the 300 pound barrel jumps and highest shoot deploy?
Brent
You ever did 300 pound barrel jumps? I don't know what that is. Don and anyone here got a so if I don't know what it is, I haven't done it high shoot ever deployed. I've done a couple 30,000, maybe 32, 33,000 foot jumps on a five second count. Which means I didn't go. I didn't on a hey ho. Means I didn't go that much. I didn't go that far down. So probably 30k. It's up there.
Don
Joseph Ring says, what do you guys think of the Mantis pistol and carbine dry fire lasers. Worth it. You guys are awesome. Also, any chance of getting cop talk on. Loved his Copville episode.
Tyler
Domizo. Oh, the match.
Mike
This dry fire system is legit. One of the best systems you can get. Freaking. A lot of guys I know use it. Duffy connect from Connecticut Consulting Group uses it. Uses it a lot. And their pistol system is all.
Brent
There you go. I'm a huge fan of dry firing and any. There's. I. I'll say this, I think too many people go to the range and shoot and wear down their pistols and spend way too much money ammo when they. They're really not. And they're not even really getting better. They're just sending rounds. When you can get so much better with. With dry fire, you really can.
Drew
My best training on learning how to shoot a gun was shooting a light switch in the corner of the room with the red dot just over and over and over. Practice, practice, practice.
Brent
There you go.
Don
All right, let's see. Matt says first, Thessalonians 2, 14, 15. Don't know that off the top of.
Brent
My head, but sounds cool, but, you know, it's good.
Don
I know what the book is about.
Brent
What's the book about, Drew?
Don
The book is about the second coming of Christ. The Thessalonians were being persecuted and they thought that they were in the judgment of God, the tribulation. And Paul wrote and said, no, you're not. That's coming later. All right, let's see another commenter. 10 bucks says, did you know the fastest growing religion in Iran is Christianity? Yep. Also, what do you think Iran and Israel is going to kick off World War iii?
Brent
And I get it, like, at some point, we had a World War I, we had a World War II, and if you really think about it, both of them, let's start back with war. Because World War I had a lot to do with World War II. So World One had a lot to do with nothing, to be honest with you. Small, small town things happened, and then countries just started picking sides. So. So it doesn't take much. So it's if, you know, the precedence is there. But I just, I. I don't. I don't see that happening again. Yeah, I could be wrong. I'm not saying that, that it won't be, but I don't see. Let's logically think about it like this way. Right? Who's going to jump on Iran's side? Because if they start jump. So America will not be a part of this. If it's Israel versus Iran. Yeah, because we. Because directly. Because it won't have to be because Israel's going to wipe the map, wipe them off the map. If we, if, if we allowed it. The only thing we'll do at some point is when Israel's wiping the floor with them saying, hey, you know, let's break it up.
Mike
Kill them all the way.
Brent
Yeah, yeah. So if anyone talk Iraq, Afghanistan, I don't care what, what country, Saudi Arabia. Name a country that's going to jump on Iran's side. And if you jump in this and if you want to start dog piling up, you don't think that at some point Big Brother's gonna come in. So tell me who you think is dumb enough to get on Iran's side and then draw in America and then for sure get wiped off the map? That's the problem I have for the World War III thing. Pakistan. Russia's not going to do it. Pakistan's not going to do it. They're dumb enough to do it. They're dumb enough to do it because almost said something. Get us canceled. They're dumb enough. But they won't. But they won't. They're. Logistically, Pakistan does not have what it takes to move a massive amount of troops from Pakistan to Iran. Those countries that are barely a country and they're fine. They're fine with fighting Afghanistan and which. And which they have because they're in their. They're in their. They're in their, Their own territory. Other countries do not. Wars are one with logistics. People really don't understand that, like, Generally World War II was won off of logistics. So there is not another country that can. That really wants to throw their lot into this and think, okay, we know if we do this, America's coming and we're okay with that. We'll deal with them too. I'm just saying, name, name. We had Pakistan. I don't believe that one. And I appreciate, you know, the, you know, for, for the sake of argument throwing that in and anyone else want to give me a country and Russia doesn't care enough to, to do anything.
Tyler
Russia would be the one, I would think.
Brent
Yeah, Russia and China. The only two people that, you know, know that would, that would take that bet. Like, okay, like we might go toe.
Tyler
To toe or the only ones that could.
Brent
That could. Yeah, but they're not going to do it over this.
Mike
Now, technically, Syria, but that also falls under not really.
Brent
Yeah, but you know, ISIS took care of. Took care of Syria, rolled over half Assyria with, With ease. And now the Kurds still own. Own half of that. They'd have to get through Kurdish territory, which, which, which they're not going to be able to. I don't know. That's. I just don't see the, I see that from like the, the immediate thought process. Oh, no. That this could be war three. But if you really think about it, to me, that's the process has to do to get there. And I don't see it getting there. But it's a crazy world we live in. It's.
Mike
Yeah, I Mean, the world is so much different now since, you know, than it was in World War II, even though it really wasn't that long ago. But things have changed so much that every, I mean, I mean, World War 3 hell would be in an entirely different type of war.
Brent
Russia, you need some superpowers. Russia can't get through Ukraine.
Mike
Exactly.
Brent
Let's show how weak Russia is.
Mike
Invade the county next door to them.
Brent
That's right.
Mike
Running out of gas.
Brent
That's right. They can't invade little brother next door and win. And America really, I mean, yes, we helped out with money and things like that, but the world really didn't come to Ukraine. Ukraine's aid people are going to argue with Matt, argue with me, that with that all they want, not in a big way. We didn't put boots on the ground, we didn't, we didn't give them air support. We gave them so, so little Ukraine. For the most part. Yes, they asked for some bombs, they asked for some ammunition, they asked for some things. But Ukraine is the one stopping Russia right now.
Mike
So, yeah, everybody's got too much to lose to even want to even think about doing that stuff. I mean, life is good even, even in places where we might think it isn't.
Brent
And I'm telling you, Israel didn't do this on a whim. There was something, their intelligence network is legit. There is something coming down the pipe that they're like, Israel, I'm sorry, Iran, Iran's gonna do something. Yeah, they did something to stop Iran from doing something first or whether they were going to do it or not. They were running their mouth like they were and Israel caught wind of it and they're like, well, if, yeah, preemptive. I assure you they didn't do this just because they were bored. They did this because they thought Iran was going to do something first.
Tyler
Well, in other world news, supposedly that.
Mike
Iran was close to, close to making around 15 supposedly nuclear capable missiles. And so this was the strike on the heavy water facilities, the generation uranium, your enrichment facilities, the scientists.
Brent
Yeah, the commanding generals of the missiles.
Mike
To basically, so to say, you know what, we're not going to get to that step. We're going to take you down before.
Brent
We get to that. And it goes back to running your mouth when you run your mouth without nukes to say, hey, we will one day we'll wipe Israel off the face of the planet. Well, that would give them the ability to. So you run your mouth like that, Israel's probably going to take you at your word.
Mike
F. A F O.
Tyler
And if you're gonna lean over Mike like that, can you touch his leg a little bit?
Don
We don't need any fights tonight.
Tyler
You want to know another world news. Another world news. Justin, it's all that I said. He didn't make me sing it. Donate another hundred dollars to Tyler Sing it party all the time. Thanks, Justin.
Drew
That doesn't beat it doesn't accumulate, does it? It has to be the one chat.
Brent
Finally.
Tyler
100 bucks for singing player.
Brent
But you are right.
Tyler
10 of the.
Brent
As a lawyer.
Tyler
Hey, you didn't say it just got.
Drew
To go 300 to get you to sing it, right?
Don
That's it.
Drew
That's what the first one was. But Justin only gave 100 to add on. You can't add on. Oh, he's got to go 301.
Tyler
Do I have my council over there?
Brent
Yep.
Drew
Yeah. Justin needs to submit 301 at the discretion of his. Never mind.
Brent
Hey, real quick. Want to read 1st Thessalonians 2, 14 and 15, since it was a super chat. And to remind Drew, since he's not memorized the Bible like we all thought he did.
Don
Some of it.
Brent
No, it's not all of it. For you brothers and sisters became imitators of God's churches in Judea, which are in Christ Jesus. You suffered from your own people the same things those churches suffered from the Jews who killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets and also drove us out. They displeased God and are hostile to everyone.
Don
And it keeps on. One more verse, it says the utmost wrath has come upon them. Them. So yeah, these Thessalonians, they were being persecuted by these Jews and it was religious persecution. So most time in the New Testament mentions Jews. It's specifically speaking of the religious part of the Jews. So when it speaks of Israel, it talks about national Israel. So in Romans, it talks about Israel, not the Jews. So this is talking about religious persecution. So, and. And yes, they were under God. Kicked their butt for gosh, 1900 years. They haven't been in their land. And there's plenty of passages and scriptures in the Old Testament and Book of Revelation that talks about Israel, not the Jewish religion, but the Israeli nation being brought back to our land and God restoring Israel. Christ second coming.
Brent
Real quick, someone thought about numbers and statistics. I'm not saying this is what's happening, but do you know what the fastest growing religion in Iran is? Christian Christianity. Well, you. You have to give numbers to a stat like that because I know this is a dramatic way of. Of explaining it, but it's true. Well, if there's only two Christians and two more this year became Christians. Yeah. You're like, whoa. Well, Christianity is doubled in size. Islam's only grown by 20. It's the fastest growing religion. Like, do you know the fastest growing those numbers? A little bit.
Drew
We solved all the crime. We made one arrest in the last minute, like, all the time for that.
Don
Does anybody know what the fastest growing religion in America is?
Brent
Don't say it's Islam.
Don
Nope.
Brent
Oh, what is it?
Don
It's Wicca.
Tyler
I. White girls.
Don
Wiccans.
Tyler
There are witches.
Brent
Witches.
Tyler
There are witches.
Don
And how many witches do you know?
Drew
Witches?
Don
Yeah.
Brent
A lot.
Drew
I know a lot of witches.
Brent
What's wrong with people?
Don
Wiccans? It's because, you know, you start off small, you start growing.
Brent
That's. That's true. That's true what you're saying. Exactly. What?
Tyler
Breed them all at Starbucks.
Brent
Starbucks vacuum, I think. What? Remind me of that when people go, you know, the fastest growing demographic of cigar smokers is women. It goes well. Yeah, well, there was 12 and now there's 15. 50% growth. That's amazing.
Tyler
Get your stats out of here.
Drew
Just like women, female cops are the best shooters as of right now. Shot one kill today.
Tyler
Yeah.
Don
All right, Justin, thanks for the awesome content that me and us hooligans in the comments love to see on Thursday.
Brent
Right?
Tyler
Hooligans, baby.
Don
Thanks, Matt. Another commenter says, what's better, NVG binos or a dual band setup?
Mike
He's talking about fusion.
Brent
Yeah. You talking about Fusion, Cody, or something like that? I hate it. It's one of those things. Sometimes you talk like two different terminologies. Like, if I had a chance to talk to you about it, I'd understand your question. So you're talking about NVG binos. I'm actually talking about, like, something that. That has, I assume. Are you. Are you talking about just the dual tubes? Usually we talk binos talking about something that. That enhances with, you know, optical.
Mike
If he's talking about wearing like one night vision monocular and one thermal monocular, don't do it. But if you're talking about binocular night vision goggles, like PBS31s, like an E. Cody, with, you know, basically fusion. I mean. Yeah, you got the best of both worlds.
Brent
Yeah. If you're talking fusion.
Mike
But wearing one on each eyeball.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
Doesn't work the way you think it's going to work.
Brent
Trust me, never does. Fusions are great. I really like them. But it doesn't. Doesn't Beat Panos, but they're Fusion. And Panos of Fusion's even better. They're. And they're here now. Yeah.
Don
All right. Ll Car concept says structure ops would help the SWAT guys slow on nods.
Mike
That's one of my classes.
Don
Long format class to really use even after a few night fighter classes. The doing it every night for a bunch in a row inside was game changer.
Brent
What were you saying about structure Ops?
Mike
Oh, that's one of my classes. That's the same guy with the circle reticle.
Brent
Okay. And so what describe structure ops?
Mike
It's a. It's a five day basically shoot house and urban ops course. And okay, you know, we work day and night.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
Kind of thing.
Brent
So.
Mike
And Night Fighters, you know, one of our flagship night vision courses.
Brent
So.
Mike
Understating this. It is a. Oh, he's been massively fundamental building course. I mean, you know, through shoot houses.
Don
Get close to that mic brother Cantona.
Tyler
You know, Container Cities get close to most. Not like there it is.
Brent
It's.
Mike
You know, it's a massive course. Perfect one that if you have not taken. You need to take if you want to be good at doing anything in a building.
Tyler
All right, so what I will say is if. If you guys ask any more gear questions, I'm gonna. I'm gonna super chat drew 300 do talk about star wars. So we need to get back on track.
Don
All right, let's see.
Brent
It takes five days to get good.
Mike
At something to build off.
Brent
I mean, that's one night. Two night ain't gonna do it.
Don
Dr. Price is a keyboard hero tonight. At $2. Tyler is a lard ass. All right.
Mike
You pay $2 to say that?
Don
Yeah. $2. Tough guy on a keyboard.
Mike
$2.
Brent
Drew, don't read anything under five.
Don
Come here to. Come here to Longwood and say it in his face. All right. Justin Carling, 100 bucks. Tyler Sing it party all the time. Paul Rudd, give me a loud Motorica on the evening. Ezekiel 38. Love y' all. Thank you. Ezekiel 38 is Gog and Magog. That is World War III. And it's not coming in at least seven years from now.
Brent
Maybe now's the time to do your episode, Drew, about Revelation. But now, I mean, if they're. If they're concerned about World War III and what the end times really look like. And if. And if this plays into that now, I think it's a.
Don
We could do it. These are definitely the seeds of it being planted right now. This is not it, but it's definitely.
Drew
Seeds I learned this on the U haul our motorhome trip about 2am Drew was covering it all with me. I would coming. I don't remember any other, but I know it's coming.
Brent
Yeah, that is the best about the motorhome trips. Listen. Listen to Drew go deep into some biblical stuff.
Drew
I'll be honest with you. I've really enjoyed it. Like, yeah, I enjoy it.
Tyler
We had some cigars outside like last year. We. We pulled the mobile home out. We busted out all the chairs, some beers, cigars, had some guys come out and join us and good talk.
Brent
If you guys think Drew knows you. What he's talking about, about the Bible. These. This. He's given short answers, which he hates. Drew talk about an hour in every single one of these subjects, if you let them.
Don
Thanks, guys.
Drew
It keeps you awake at 1am I was listening.
Don
Oh, you guys are awesome. You guys are awesome. Kane Corso says old dude, ranger, bat vet threatened my buddy's mom at the gym.
Brent
Don't do that.
Don
For parking in his spot. We normally handle these things ourselves. How should he proceed?
Brent
Well, dude, Roger bat vet threatened my buddy's mom at the gym for parking in his spot.
Mike
Sounds like a butthole.
Brent
Like, gosh, I mean, like, do we.
Mike
Even know if it. He's truly a ranger or is he just some poser?
Brent
Yeah, for sure.
Mike
You know.
Brent
And what do you mean his spot? Like, is. Does he have like a. A scroll on a. Yeah.
Mike
Is there like a ranger only parking?
Don
You got a sign, bro?
Brent
Yeah. Yeah. Or is this like the one of those like. Like childish. This is where I park.
Drew
Like, that's my job.
Brent
Karen going on. How should we proceed? I would basically, I'm. Which I'm assuming he doesn't have his name on a parking spot or a scroll painted on like on the ground. So I'd be like, hey, this isn't. I just talk to him like a man. But I would do it in a way that makes him sound silly because he is silly.
Don
Dr. Price, $2 once again. Always remember, Red Bar is watching.
Tyler
Red bar a Dr. Price. Go yourself.
Don
Yeah, there you go. There's that.
Brent
Who's Red Bar?
Don
He's a guy that called me a lard last hour. Have you been persecuted by leadership for your faith?
Tyler
No, only during COVID If you try pulling that, you can't it.
Brent
No, I. I can't say that. That. That I ever have.
Tyler
I know there's guys out there that. That tried saying I can't have the jab due to my religion and whether that's a lie or not, I don't know, but they didn't care, so. But I don't, I don't. You know, other than that. Like, I'm trying to think of, like, a lot of religions get exemptions for headgear or stuff like that in government work. I don't really think Christianity has really been persecuted that much. You guys think of it.
Don
How do you get a religious exhibit for headgear?
Tyler
Facial hair.
Brent
Yeah, they have, they have to have that turban. I, to be honest, I. I hate that. We should. There should be no religious exemption for headgear. Like, this is the uniform. Like, if you chose, you chose to be here. It's a volunteer army. If, if you're, if you're silly little religion can't conform to this. Well, sorry, I don't know why. I don't know why. We believe, like, the military is for everyone. We, we, we, we tell people all the time, hey, like, you're. You have scoliosis. You can't come in the military. So why do we make exceptions for that ridiculousness?
Tyler
Yeah, you have something that limits that. You can't wear a hat. Next.
Brent
Yeah, bye, Felicia.
Drew
I'm dropping, I'm dropping the silly little religion stickers here shortly. That's a great call.
Brent
Comment.
Don
World War 3 started right here with Brent Tucker calling them silly little religions.
Brent
All right, Psychs. And Orlando has just been bombed. Your seeks and not destroy. Metallica reference. I went to that concert. That was so good.
Tyler
Jealous, man. Oh, you good run a concert.
Brent
I've had a good run.
Drew
He had a good road trip.
Tyler
No, that wasn't this last one, right?
Brent
That, that has to do with Devin. Devin Love loves concerts and so do I. But the difference is, like, she'll.
Tyler
She'll open for Metallica, Pantera.
Brent
Ah.
Tyler
I've seen him once. One time.
Brent
The difference is I'll just look at concerts. Come and go and go. Oh, I should have.
Tyler
Yeah.
Brent
But Devin will go. And basically, almost to a point, she's like, you coming with me? Am I going alone? And so I'm like, well, I'm. I'm coming. And, and every time I'm so glad I go. I've been. I have Nickelback, acdc, Pantera, Metallica. These are just the Kid Rock.
Tyler
Know what the bucket list is? Pink Williams Jr. Limp bizkit.
Brent
Limp. And we were out of town. Limp Bizkit opened up for Metallica in Tampa, and I really, really wanted to go to that one. I there. I've never seen Limp Bizkit I was supposed to go once and they canceled the concert. I think he like broke his ankle or something like that and had to cancel the car. I can't remember why. It was like 15 years ago. It was a minute ago. But I want to see Limp Bizkit. They're one of the last ones.
Tyler
Yes.
Drew
Magnets not going to you with what's that? He made a Nickelback face when you.
Tyler
Said he made a face and he.
Brent
Said, I'm tired of people pretend like Nickelback is.
Tyler
Yeah, I've said that. You brought that up. And I've said that since I was a kid. I'm like, listen, there's no Nickelback fans. How are they number one on the charts? You can't find a Nickelback fan.
Brent
But that's right. Yeah. A lot of convenience. I People hate Nickelback because they were told to hate Nickelback. I just can't get behind that. No one can really tell me why they hate Nickelback because they got a lot of hits. Okay. Then hate Metallica. They got a lot of hits. It was.
Mike
It was that one song that just.
Tyler
Kept playing Photograph it was. Yeah.
Mike
Everybody thought, oh, we're done with this band now.
Brent
And I disagree. I yeah.
Mike
And they still sing along and.
Brent
That's. Right. And I somewhat actually get that argument. But that's not. Not Nickelback's fault. That's the radio's fault for over. Inundating society with their stuff. Yeah. And it goes back to so. And there was a time they had like three number one hits like, like on the same album or four. Oh, yeah. They had. They had so many top 10.
Tyler
That might have been what everybody was getting sick of hearing it.
Brent
Right. And it's. But so again, you're mad at them for having a bunch of good songs. That is what you hate Nickelback for.
Tyler
I won't.
Brent
I can't. I can't. I can't do it. I won't get behind it.
Mike
Either way, we're still talking about him.
Don
So.
Brent
Yeah, I like Nickelback. I like.
Tyler
I sit when I pee.
Brent
Who cares?
Drew
They're Canadian, too.
Brent
Right?
Drew
So we're advocating for Canada here tonight.
Tyler
The only good thing to come out of Canada besides that hockey.
Brent
Might as well love Justin Trudeau.
Don
Pns Golf says N O F X and no effects Lisa and Louise.
Tyler
I actually don't know that well how much you're gonna have to donate like 295more dollars.
Don
Alex G. Someone's gonna save you here pretty soon. I've seen Alex G. Down there. What's up? Fellas Brent, did you see Tim Kennedy wearing your old Delta arrowhead patch? More stolen valor in my opinion.
Brent
I did not. What he. Hold on. So the last video I saw him post was about the arm. I think the Army's 250th birthday. Is it America's fit to. No, no. America's 250th birthday because July 4th is coming up. Maybe it was the gosh. So what's that? Saturday's Tim Kennedy. Okay, okay, that's what I thought. The Army's 250th birthday is coming up and he put out a post. Post in uniform with his green beret looking like he's a French chef. It looked so bad. It was embarrassing like anything else he does. But now is. Is it on that post that he was. That he was wearing that? I will. I will go look.
Don
Zulu Whiskey says shout out for Vanessa for being a rock star. My super chat is back up and running. You're in trouble now.
Brent
Thank you. Zulu whiskey.
Don
Iceman. 40 bucks. Israel is now bombing Iran. Now go check the dominoes near the Pentagon. They are stacked on orders at the moment. Raw or some shite.
Brent
Yep, yep, I bet they are. But the. The Pentagon is. Is. The boys are staying late tonight. The Pentagon.
Don
Zulu Whiskey back in. Brought my first silencer home yesterday. 72 hour approval. The KAC CQB element op. Thanks Gay TF. Hey, our ATF. I see what he did there.
Brent
Gay TF magnet, how close are we to buying suppressors? Over. Over there basically over the counter and doing away with all the silly laws.
Drew
We're just waiting for the Senate to.
Brent
Pass the so big, beautiful, big beautiful bill.
Mike
Yeah.
Brent
If that goes by. No, if it does get stripped out, no more tax stamps, no more silliness. It's just a gun accessory like everything else.
Mike
Yeah, it will. It'll probably still have a 4473.
Brent
Of course it will have that.
Mike
But they're like buying a gun.
Brent
Yeah, well explain the 4473 for everyone else because I know.
Tyler
Yeah. For the idiots here.
Mike
Yeah. It's a form you fill out when you buy a gun.
Brent
But what does it do?
Mike
It basically it's for records and. And background check.
Brent
So you'll see you'll still need a background check.
Mike
So. So basically 4473s are counted as. Basically you buy a firearm.
Brent
Okay.
Mike
You have to fill out 4473 if you're at a federal firearms license. So it's what it is my personal take on the Suppressor Thing is, they're most likely going to do away with the 200 tax stamp.
Brent
Right.
Mike
But they will stick. They'll keep it on the NFA and you just don't have to pay that anymore.
Brent
But you still have to get.
Mike
That's my bet. But the magnet might know some more stuff.
Brent
If it's.
Drew
If there's no tax stamp, then why.
Brent
Would they have to do that?
Drew
It would be like a regular firearm at that point.
Brent
Background. So background check, depending on how fast your background check comes out, just no 200. No 200 stamp. Stamp. And it just depends on what their budget is though. Because they talked about that with the big beautiful bill. Because they still got 200. They're giving up whatever. Yeah.
Drew
Big beautiful bill was getting rid of the money. Well, what's funny, keeping the. The. The. You had to still wait and get. And get the.
Tyler
What's funny is that 200 didn't go.
Mike
To the processing center for the stamp.
Brent
Okay.
Mike
It went to other government institutions.
Tyler
So they still have.
Brent
With the Ukraine structure in place to actually process the.
Mike
The technical process for the nfa, for the stamp, for the suppressor. It's just. It will now no longer cost money.
Brent
It's just. So you're saying it's the same pain in the butt process, it's just not 200 anymore? Yeah. Does it speed up the process at all? Other is. Is it any more advantages besides just not being processed?
Drew
Because it'll just be like buying a gun.
Mike
It'd be just like going to buy a pistol.
Tyler
Right.
Brent
Okay.
Mike
So join bigger the money, they'll say by not having to process all the paper.
Drew
So.
Brent
So do I need to wait to pick up that suppressor for you until. Until the bill passes?
Drew
No, he's selling them in the parking lot.
Brent
Okay.
Don
All right, we got Amos Moses.
Brent
Amos Moses.
Don
A couple of prophets. Yes to the Revelations episode. Drew. All right. Bo Blanks. I wonder if it was a bunch of pagers. Thank God. A group call. Just saying.
Mike
That was a pretty good one.
Don
Danny. Danny, Danny.
Brent
Danny. Wow.
Don
Danny. $300 even on a technicality. 100. 200 plus $100. That's 300 bucks. Just making sure you don't have to sing against your will. You're my boy, Tyler. Limp Bizkit. Golden Cobra.
Brent
Golden Cobra. That was a good one.
Tyler
Package full of free gear.
Brent
All right, hockey update, because you shouldn't.
Tyler
Be watching DM us Back to our.
Don
Back to our sportsman and weather.
Brent
Ron Jeremy. Devin's texting me give me updates. It is three to three. End of second. Oh, how to go three zero to three three. Come on, Panthers. Don't let them Canucks do us like that.
Drew
You guys were over here praising Canada and they came right back like, yeah, yeah.
Brent
They're over there playing nickelback on their. On on their side of score comes out. Look at this photograph got them all hyped up. It wasn't photograph. It was something in your mouth or. Or one of their other hits. That's one of their songs. Yeah, yeah. That's a good song.
Don
Hawk 6, 67, 50 bucks. Brent and Tyler, lover of all your content. Also, Brent, Billy Dean and I would like to come for a live.
Brent
Get out, buddy. Oh, yeah, you get.
Mike
If you get Billy.
Brent
Billy Dean over here, tell him. Tell him I won't choke him out again. So funny story. Billy Dean's a large man, and nine times out of ten would work me silly. We get into a wrestling match on the one of like those big grass pastures. We're getting ready to go do a job jump. And for whatever, really, for whatever reason, Billy wants to get handsy with me and we start wrestling and the whole company's there. I don't want to get into a fight with Billy, but I can't. I can't back down from it. And I ended up, you know, kind of getting, like choking him out. Not completely, but like, he taps me. I had no business, no business getting, getting, getting over on Billy. But he wanted to fight again. I was like, no, I don't want to choke down again. I'm not fighting Billy again. Like, hey, you're old man. I don't want to hurt you. Billy can walk in on the live and still probably give it. He's just a large man, but he's a. But he's a good man. Billy's a good dude. Yeah, you get him on here, man. I'd love to hang out with you.
Mike
Let me know if you guys. You got Billy coming in.
Tyler
What you. We're losing. We're losing signal. We can't get the super chats in. What's going on?
Don
Justin Carling, 100 bucks.
Tyler
Tyler Party all the time tied at 300.
Brent
Oh. Oh, God.
Tyler
This is where you guys come in.
Don
Oh, I'm sorry, Tyler. I didn't get that. It's like, oh, we lost the super chat. All right, here we go. Brady Pearson, five bucks. Tim Kennedy was also wearing the beret flash to match the patch.
Brent
So he's probably wearing. It's. It's a use of sock patch. Yeah. So it's. He's probably Assigned to some. Some support, use a sock thing because no actual line company wants anything to do with them. So they hit him up at use a sock.
Mike
Yeah. He's never there, you know?
Brent
Yeah.
Drew
Being a boy scout uniform standing out there, nobody wants anything to do.
Brent
That's probably. That's probably the truth about it.
Don
Zulu whiskey back in. How many mags do each of you have loaded right now? For when, not if the poo hits the fan at home?
Tyler
20.
Mike
I don't know.
Tyler
20. The goat.
Mike
I load them and shoot them and load them.
Brent
Yeah. I don't have a lot in my bag. I probably have like five or six in my bag.
Tyler
Ready for the zombies, baby.
Don
I got two.
Brent
I make my shots count.
Mike
I mean, I keep a lot loaded because I keep. Travel and train a lot. Try to preload all that stuff. So you try to have 10, 20, or more loaded.
Tyler
I'll answer the phone when you guys call me for more bags.
Brent
I gotta be.
Don
I. I don't shoot guns for living, so I got two, so fat people. All right, let's see. We got the doctor.
Brent
She. She.
Don
She hasn't been super chats in a long time, but she's in the chats half the time. Doctor, A quick hello and showing some appreciation for everyone's effort to bring this together every week. Thank you, Doc. And we all hope you're as hot as your profile picture. Let's see. Zulu Whiskey back in. Drew, what's a lesson you've learned from a difficult experience? Oh, man, I've had.
Tyler
That's the most vague question.
Don
Yeah. Got a lot of difficult experiences. You know, life sucks. But what. What I learned. But what I learned from. From every one of them is, number one, you trust God. Even when you don't feel like you can trust God, you trust God. Number two, you keep doing what's right. You keep doing what's right by your wife, even if you don't like her. You keep doing what's right by your kids, even if they don't like you. You keep doing what's right at your job.
Brent
Job.
Don
Even if it feels like everybody hates you there. Whatever it is, you keep doing what's right to everybody else. Number three, keep moving forward. Because it's all going to work out. Because you go back to number one, trust God. So that's what I learned for all the crap in life.
Brent
All right, everyone listening. Doing some. Some. Some soul searching. Yeah.
Mike
Yeah.
Don
Diving B. 20 bucks. Was late on the super chat last week. But to answer the support question, I know of two Navy Seabees at the unit. I went I A in 22 from the blue side of the house.
Brent
All right. There you go. There's the answer. Thank you. Let's come back to that can on the support side. Is it also joint? Can it be other. Other surprised they remember that. Yeah. Thank you.
Don
Barry McCockiner. Brit, with your connections, do you think. Think you could help with finding out services records and or knowledge about a Hammer Alert?
Mike
Amber Alert, Miami Dade.
Drew
We're not getting bombed, are we?
Mike
Amber Alert in Miami?
Don
No. Some, some divorced dad took his kid. Brent, with your connections, do you think you could help with finding out services records and or knowledge about a World War I soldier? We'll message you on Patreon. The two articles I have great gramps was bad arse.
Brent
I actually tried to do that already for a friend and I, and I, I tried to pull every string I have and not to be unhumble about it. It is a lot. This was the conclusion after doing as much as I could for this person that I came up with, the best thing you can do is contact your congressman. I know it's not the answer you want front. It's easier to get a hold of your congressman than, than you think it is. But it's outside of like they, they can, they can make it happen and that's, that's you need to talk to and they. And if, and they, they will do something about it if they're a Republican, just.
Don
Justin Carling. Right on. I believe, I believe Drew Paul Rudd. Get ready to clip it. Tyler party all the time.
Tyler
20 bucks came in after 10 o' clock, but it doesn't count.
Don
I make dudes. All right, we're caught up with super chats now for the subject of the hour.
Tyler
Yeah, I mean we've kind of been touching upon it all night. It's just the, the, the riots. Like I've been watching a lot of things where people are saying like they predicted this, they politically predicted that the next thing that's going to happen are immigration riots. And I don't know how they've done it. I threw some in the Instagram, but a lot of podcasts the guy was on, Joe ROGAN Back in 2023, I think said that, you know, this is this. The next thing is going to be immigration riots, you know, so, so have.
Brent
You, have you seen the organization that's, that's getting all, that's banning all this together? It's called no kings.org and they're basically saying, yeah, they're a major player in this. Here's the problem I have right off the bat with no kings.org Donald Trump is not a king. Donald Trump is a duly elected official and he was elected by the people, had the popular vote, landslide and electoral vote. He's not a king. So that's a stupid name right off the bat. So I already know how stupid your cause is because your name is stupid. Second to that. The only thing he's doing is upholding the law. Kings do dictator things and they introduce new law as they seem fit. He's not, he's not doing that. He's only exercising the law that's on the books. So I'm sorry if you don't agree with the law, but the president who should agree with the law and was sworn to do things like this and was voted in to do things like this is doing what he has a obligation to do. So I don't understand the pushback. I really don't. And it's.
Mike
Well, it's an excuse.
Brent
It's an excuse, absolutely.
Mike
They really don't care. It's an excuse to do.
Tyler
Talking about right.
Mike
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's an excuse to riot. I mean, bottom line, it's a Marxist in surgery insurgency for sure.
Tyler
You won't, you won't ever.
Mike
All they need is a cover and an excuse to let the people who are uninformed and easily influenced to believe that this is about immigration. It's not. Because if you look at the organizations that are a part of this stuff and that are funding it and like you said, organizing it, they're, they're leftist, you know, they're.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
And their, their agenda is not. Has, it doesn't have anything to do with immigration.
Tyler
Yeah.
Mike
I think that has a reason.
Tyler
It's, it's generations of democratic suppression that create rioters. These people are rioting because they're gonna riot. If you give them any chance to riot, they're gonna riot. They're not rioting for any reason. Any rhyme. They're just gonna riot and it's never gonna stop. Rioters are always going to be there. And if you look at it, it's in cities with people that have never left that city. They're poor and it's all because of democratic, you know, oppression.
Mike
This is their n. Not looting the Nike store in the name of anti deportation.
Tyler
No. You know what's funny?
Drew
The Nike people that are protesting are of Mexican descent. The people are looting are a whole.
Brent
Different group of people. This is, this truly is. This truly is what I hate the Democrats Love this. They do. They love this right now because they want to see anarchy. They want to see division. They want to see chaos under a President Trump. Trump, that is. It couldn't be any more anti American for them to want this. They want division. Why would you want division? As an American Congressman, they want people to be upset about the government actually following the rule of law. Why would you ever want that? That's. I. I have not always been this political, but things like this are making me political. Name one thing on the Republican side. This is an honest question. Someone answer this for me. And. And maybe there's. Maybe there's an answer. It's an honest. It's an honest answer. What is something the Republicans want that's illegal, but they want it to happen. They root for it to happen and they want division over it because. Can someone give me one thing? There's got to be one. Because I'm not saying the Republicans are perfect. I'm. I'm not. But, but can you. But we can't think of one thing so that if we can't. And please, super chats, you let me know someone can think of something. But I can think of several things that the Democrats want that. That align up with this.
Drew
Yeah, this is a. This is the Republicans finally enforcing a law that has been let go for years and it spun into some like it's an ulterior motive. No, we're finally enforcing a law that should be. So easily to understand that it's illegal to come in this country, but they make it out to be some massive situation. It's just, we're finally enforcing it and now it's a problem.
Brent
And you'll have to show me where illegal immigration and a lack of enforcing your own laws is good for your country. And because it's not good for your country, what you're hoping for is something bad for your country. And I know it's people like, oh, that's. That's a dangerous word. You know, you got to be careful. No, I, I know what it means, and I'm using it for a reason. That's treason. Yeah. Every Democrat that doesn't stand up for the right thing should be tried for treason. That's what treason is. Intentionally undermining your country as a duly elected official is treason. And whatever the penalty for treason is, which I think we know what it is. Yeah, well, hey, I didn't come up with a penalty for treason, but. And nor did I come up with the definition of treason, but that's what it is. They're doing it, and I'm tired of it. I just.
Drew
I never thought you'd see a point in America where enforcing the laws was so frowned upon, especially ones that are so deadly, like illegal immigration. It makes no sense.
Tyler
Sense. Can you go to Instagram? Drew, the one we picked out. This is a. Kind of Goes with what Brent was saying, but someone clipped it while in the background.
Brent
And even those who were out of step with what we are advocating, peaceful protest did not create any violence. Nobody was shot. Nobody was killed. Get it in your head. And so. So when martial law is called, what.
Tyler
Are you going to say?
Brent
I missed the point? Don't miss the point. You all don't think that somehow because they called out the National Guard, there was violence? There was no violence. I was on the street.
Don
I know.
Brent
And I went from downtown detention back out into the community talking to people. What happened in Paramount, what happened in Compton, what happened in Inglewood. So first of all, get it straight and don't just rely on what you're being told or the few incidents that you saw.
Tyler
I just. I thought it was funny that someone clipped all the violence behind her. Talking about how there was no violence I saw.
Brent
We'll see if we get to. Is there something before the Patriot Act?
Don
The other mean, before the Patriot Act?
Brent
Yeah. Is that. Is that the next. Well, I'll wait till we get there.
Don
No, we've got. We've got a couple. All right, there's a golden cobra for 50 bucks.
Brent
Is the next one okay?
Don
All right, let's put that up there.
Tyler
Thanks, Danny.
Don
Dr. Price, the other two dollar guy. He's the guy. Tyler, what's your Height and weight? 5, 5. 250. Soto 8. 5 bucks. Everyone give us.
Tyler
Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Go back to Dr. Price. That's my height weight.
Mike
He predicted five bucks. 5, 250.
Tyler
Oh, I'm probably taller than you. Can probably still outrun you at £200, bro.
Mike
He's Hoover the mover.
Brent
He's Hoover the move.
Don
Yeah, Hoover the mover. Haven't you been listening?
Tyler
But the problem is that's probably a troll account.
Don
Let's see. Soto8 says everyone give us a badge. Barracks bunny story.
Brent
I don't really have a lot of badge bunny stories. Like, I've really, really don't. I'm.
Mike
I mean, I got nothing for you. Yeah, I know.
Brent
You're a ranger too. I think you'd. I thought you'd have one for us. Nah. All right. Sorry, man. Yeah, I'm boring. Yes. Yeah, sorry. You Got the boring crew. The problem is we took our. We took our. Our jobs too serious. So we don't. We don't have some of the silly stories. We have plenty of silly stories. Yeah, we don't have the. The full.
Mike
It's mostly with the boys.
Brent
Yeah.
Don
All right. Kim Young Un, North Korea's best Korea hero. America.
Brent
Even by hell row.
Don
Oh, hello. That's right.
Tyler
He went Hispanic.
Don
All right. Hello, America. Even by my standard, you have spoiled Marxists who are very retarded.
Brent
For sure.
Don
Yeah, we do gang corsif. On a more serious note, largest animal you think you can kill with your bare hands. Hands.
Tyler
Largest.
Brent
Largest animal. I think I can kill my parents. You gotta catch it. Okay.
Tyler
Oh, you do? I mean, how many animals are you catching?
Brent
I mean, it's catching part.
Tyler
I thought catching was given.
Mike
What if I handed you an alligator?
Tyler
Large alligator now.
Brent
Yeah, I still. I. I'm still. I think I can tear. I think I can tire it out.
Tyler
I'm really terrified that you think this.
Brent
And I think the larger the alligator, the quicker it tires out.
Mike
That you be tired of it.
Brent
Hey, it's. This is. This is my. This is my Florida man fantas. Yeah, this is my Florida man fantasy.
Tyler
Brett Tucker, host of the entire podcast, dies an alligator.
Mike
Say hi to Steve Irwin for us.
Don
I'm going with a giraffe. I'm jumping on that neck, Drew.
Mike
I'm gonna choke that sucker out over.
Brent
There thinking, don't let him get away with that.
Don
Choke him out. I'm just gonna beat the heck out of that big old neck.
Brent
You're not getting up to the back on. Back on the back of a giraffe to choke it out of a tree. And here's the other thing. Have you ever seen giraffes fight that is violent the way they. Have you ever seen a small giraffe, he would whip your. His head around?
Don
A baby giraffe just born.
Mike
I'm gonna go with like.
Don
Like, that's a big animal. That's a big animal. I would kill that thing.
Mike
I'm gonna go with like one of those little lizards that's on my back porch.
Tyler
It's not big, though.
Brent
It might be the biggest, but it's a sure thing. But it's a sure thing. Yeah, you go with a sure thing.
Mike
The biggest thing.
Brent
I know.
Tyler
I know my limits.
Brent
I know my limits.
Don
All right. Just an average man. The Patriot Act.
Brent
I knew that was gonna come up. All right, you're wrong. And I'll tell you how you're wrong. I know you and I know you can argue with this. I'm not, and I'm not saying it's, it's. It's not a good one. But here's where I'm going to get you. The patriot act, formerly known as zookeers is a u. S. Law passed in response to 9, 11 terrorist attacks. You cannot agree with it, but once it becomes a law and it was passed by congress, it's actually the law, the land. And it's what I say about, you know, the second amendment, you can hate it all you want. Democrats, if. And you know, our, our founding fathers did a beautiful job. If it's a living, breathing document, you can change it. So if you don't like the second amendment, change the law. And then we all have to agree with it because that's how the law works. But what the democrats. Right. Are doing right now, now are going against the law of the land. You could not like the patriot act. And there are some things in the patriot act about surveillance on Americans that I know you can, you can argue with. But it is law of the land.
Tyler
Oh man, those two a people are gonna come after you.
Brent
Oh, I know. I'm saying I, I like just. I don't know. They're not. They're only going to hear what they want to hear. I said there are things in there. But in the, in this argument, if.
Tyler
You want to change the two way. The second amendment.
Brent
Right. But it hasn't been changed. So we have to abide by it, which I'm more than happy to.
Don
If they do. I'm illegally moving to Mexico.
Drew
The cops and wave your American flag.
Don
All right, quay pro junior. 10 bucks. He's a good dude. Tyler, you do know a Nickelback fan because he's me. Brent, I 100 agree. Nickelback is legit because we all just want to be big rock stars.
Brent
Well done. Well done.
Don

Tyler
Doesn't feel like it.
Don
I. I read it. I don't, I don't know what I said I know.
Brent
One of the silliest things is. Is sbr. And the. And the pistol brace is like, oh, it's a pistol because it has a Velcro pro piece on it. It's. I'm glad we got it. But it's.
Mike
Yeah, there should be no such thing as a sbr. It shouldn't matter how long the barrel is.
Brent
I know. I say that. I say the same thing all the time.
Mike
I say as firearms shouldn't even have serial numbers on them.
Brent
So if. If only our forefathers had the foresight to put something in the Second amendment that was like, shall not be infringed, it would have really cleared up all of this.
Tyler
You caught up?
Don
Caught up.
Tyler
All right, I'm gonna need the lyric video.
Brent
You have to pull up the lyrics on your phone.
Tyler
I'm gonna have to time it with you.

Brent
There you go. You got it.
Tyler
I honestly. I don't know who won, but Justin donated so much money to hear me through. Birthday party all the time that I feel like it'd be a disservice not to give it to him.
Brent
Oh, no, you're gonna give it to him. Let's see if I can get this right the first time.
Tyler
Oh, yeah. Am I? I might have to catch up with it.
Brent
All right, here we go. This one's for the boys. All right. While he's doing that, Mike Danger. The government doesn't give me the right to self defense. Big bond does that.
Tyler
When your girl goes out and parties when you're home alone.
Brent

Brent
Golden COBRA. This was 2011. Like they were. They actually were still coming out with.
Tyler
It came out with a really rocky grunge album. I think this is fun.
Brent
They had a couple good ones on this. I don't think what else it was.
Tyler
Truth is a good one. Is that the one with the dictator on it on the front cover?
Brent
No, this has got like the cracked out whole girls and the cobra.
Don
Zulu whiskey says love you guys.
Tyler
I just second saw for you, bro.
Brent

Mike
There is a canal going.
Brent
Yeah, Okeechobee.
Drew
You go okeechobee all the way here.
Brent
A hundred years ago, we tried to build a canal through Florida halfway or something like that. Yeah, yeah.
Mike
They just kind of like gave up on it.
Brent
Y.
Tyler
This is Li Biscuit.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike
Sure.
Brent
That's right. Never leave your wingman, T Bone. I didn't leave you, Tyler. I was there for you. Old Justin. Does SOCOM ever need or use physic majors or brain bug type people? James Bond's Q or need someone to confirm something is real or not a worry. Yeah, we got some break. We got some big brains that. That workforce for sure. T Bone. 6613. Limp biscuit on MTV spring break, man, those were the good old. When MTV was Daytona was cool. When Daytona was cool.
Tyler
So it's funny, Daytona shut down spring break, which was crazy. Crazy. People having a good time. They still allow events there where people are shot and killed and murdered all week long. They don't shut that down.
Brent
They'll never shut down the Daytona 500 or Bike Week. I just.
Tyler
No, no, no, no, no. But that's not where they shoot. There's other demographics that have their own weeks there. What's it called? The Reunion.
Brent
Bcr. Black College Reunion. They still have that there?
Tyler
Yep. But we can't have our MTV Spring Break.
Brent
No.
Drew
Or Spring Break Naturals.
Mike
Mark. An answer to what? My EDC pistol. Glock 19.
Brent
Yes.
Drew
Yeah.
Mike
With Acro optic on it.
Don
With the big circle site.
Brent
Hans Eli, thoughts on Dalton Fury's book Kill Bin Laden. Is it accurate? That is the next book. I actually just ordered it. It's. The headset's coming in and out just a little bit. Tyler headset's coming in and out just a little bit. His, not mine. The. I'm going to read it. I know this. I was actually just talking to Pete Blabber about that. Tom Greer, I believe is. Is. Is his real name. He. He thought I got.
Drew
I'm.
Brent
I haven't read the book yet, but this is what. What Tom's saying about it. Like they. He thought they killed Bidlot and Tor Bore, which he's wrong about that.
Mike
A lot of people unfortunately at one point in time.
Brent
At a lot of people thought that at one point in time, yeah, Tom died. So he didn't get to see the. The ending of. Of ubl. I don't know what. Maybe he did. I don't know what year he died.
Mike
I don't remember.
Brent
But. But he thought they killed Osama bin Laden. Then he is wrong. So if he's wrong about that, I know that's where Shrek gets his claim to fame is like. Oh well, he said like in that book that I was doing singleton missions. So I have to go read the book and see what it says in context text. But I know that book doesn't get high reviews from X operators. So I'll read it for myself and I will let you know. And because it came up and we got a few more minutes. I'll read a few more chats. I'm going. No effects. Oh, nice. Let's see. Which I believe they asked for. Separation of church and skate. Was that what they asked for? Yep. And that's what they get. Let's see what else we got here. Nope, not saying that one. You guys kill me. Justin Carling, he appreciates Tyler. Love you. Dude. I'm laughing so hard. When do the tanks drop? We didn't design them.
Tyler
Well, well, we'll.
Brent
I'll get. I'll get right on that. I designed the first shirt. Tyler designed the second shirt. And we will sure we'll come up with some collab to get that. Get that tank top out and moving. Oh, is that one you already read? Current EDC Pistol.
Drew
Yeah.
Brent
Was that okay?
Mike
I noticed it Was.
Brent
Yeah, me. So, yep. Night drive. I watch Baywatch. I have a lot of federal crimes committed against me. Not a victim. Okay. Never be a victim. Good for you. Did Delta actually turn down the bin Laden raid? No. I've said this several times. It was. It wasn't one. The president wasn't up there going, oh, whose guys should I send? And I know Rob o' Neill's a dick for going, oh, we Sent Seal Team 6 because we kill people. I mean, Deltas are good guys. Are good guys, but they sent us because we kill people. That isn't how it happens. And Rob knows that. They were always going to get the mission. It was in Pakistan.
Don
The irony is he didn't kill him.
Brent
Yeah. There isn't a whole lot he's gotten right about out that mission, which is odd, seeing how the guy was on the mission. So I don't know how you could be there and get so much stuff wrong. Appreciate y' all. It really means a lot support, honestly. Thank you, brother. Glenn, my eyes are going bad. Let me tell you. My eyes finally did it. They're finally starting to go. I haven't gotten readers yet, but I need them. I'm. I'm doing that thing now where I'll look at my.
Mike
That's about what happened to me. And I put them on. I was like, whoa.
Brent
I don't. I hate. I'm. I don't know why I'm fighting it. I, I, I.
Mike
It'll make it, like, a little easier.
Brent
Glenn. Thank you so much, Glenn.
Mike
Glenn's one of my guys who's in the group chat with Lewis.
Brent
Oh, really?
Mike
We got a thing going on.
Brent
Thank you.
Mike
Yeah, he's a great dude.
Brent
All right. I want to say Steve Williams, Navy dude was in charge of J Sock is what Andy Stump said. Maybe dude was in charge of J Sock. What? What? What? Navy dude was in charge of J Sock about what Andy Stump said. See if you can see what Stephen Williams writes back. Just go into that a little bit more. And I think I know what you're saying, but I don't want to go off a tangent, something you're not saying. Oh, an OD green podcast shirt. What do you think? I mean, also, my closet's ridiculous with black shirts, but I like that.
Tyler
You know what? I've tried. I've tried to do shirts on my line, and it's just that none of. I don't think I'm good at making non black shirts. Even the squad cast shirt. I was like, hey, Brent, what do you think about White. And you were like. And I'm like, yes. Black.
Brent
Yeah.
Mike

It was an area of operation thing and, and they got it due to the air of operation and Andy, Andy Stumpf, you know, could say that. And he can and he can believe that. Andy. I'm not saying anything bad against and nor. Nor will I. And he's a great dude, you know, but you can be a good dude. Be wrong. I'll call Andy, let him know that before something. Before someone sends him that clip.
