Brent Tuckerton
Hear, hear. Did you hear the tall tale of a short soldier named Lil Timmy Kennedy?
Doll Revere
He claims to be running around the.
Brent Tuckerton
Battlefield with 50 cannonballs in his backpack. Have you heard of the charlatan Robert o' Neil of the SEAL Brigade? Yes, and we all wish we hadn't. Such a disappointment. Disgrace. We have to have this war finished by Thursday night. And the Anti Hero squad cast is on. And it's for the boys. Here we go. This one we got. You know, I was going to say all Delta Force Squad cast, but we got the lovely. I gotta look. Doll Revere. We have Doll Revere with us, as you guys may have seen before. But coming back, we have Brian Y. Adams of the Minutemen.
Brian Y. Adams
I appreciate you having me.
Brent Tuckerton
You're welcome. And I'm. I'm certain that has to do with certain conquests in the bedroom. I am Brent Tuckerton of the Southern colonies. Magnet. We have Magnet with us. Magnet Carter. Magnet. Magna Carta. And of course, we have Truly's S. Grant. Yes, I'm aware that's a Civil War theme, but the name was too good. The name was too good and I.
Drew Lissy
Got the good stash for it.
Brent Tuckerton
We're gonna talk about. We will. I didn't want to, but too much has gone on this week. We will talk about some current events and we got some things lined up, some teasers, if you will. But for the most part, I really want this to be America themed. America. Focus Founding Fathers focused. Dollar veer has some fun facts for us lined up. Before we get that, let's knock out a couple super chats and let's get into it.
Drew Lissy
All right, the first super chat we got of the night is going to be solely 1, 2, 3, 4. Do you believe in redemption? How can those you've been critical of make amends for their wrongs? Eg. Lutrell, T.K. etc.
Brent Tuckerton
Well, so you said. I'll answer. I'll start this answer off because you asked how those I've been critical of can make amends. That's not a. And I don't mean this derogatory that's not a very deep question. It's simple. It's the same way anyone ever makes amends. And. And that's to come clean. Drew, something tells you the Bible probably has something to say about this.
Drew Lissy
Yeah. Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
I'm sorry, Drew List.
Drew Lissy
Thank you. Brent Dunkerton. Yeah, I mean, you know, repentance, change your mind, confess your wrongs, and do what's right. I mean, it's pretty simple. That's, you know, that's. That's how redemption works. I mean, they ask forgiveness, and we don't hold it over their heads.
Brent Tuckerton
We.
Drew Lissy
We forgive them and they. And they do what's right. That's not. It's not hard.
Brent Tuckerton
It's not. But thank you for asking the question. Gives us an opportunity to.
Drew Lissy
Good question.
Brent Tuckerton
Because they listen to us. Go ahead.
Drew Lissy
All right. Solely back in UK version of hrt, CTSFO have CQB comparable to uksf. I don't know those letters, Brent. I'm sure you do. Insured as Special Forces are involved in their training. They also deploy together.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay, that just seems like a fun fact.
Drew Lissy
Fun fact. Last one from solely. If HRT can't match. If HRT can't match, Delta cqb, would it help if Delta trains them so they reach Delta standard?
Brent Tuckerton
It's more than just coming to train them. One, it starts with a selection process, and two, it starts with. With the culture. I go and I train teams at times, but if I talk a lot about culture, when I go and train those teams, if they don't pick up the culture, part of. Of. Of my. Of my training, my lessons, then I'm not going to move the ball a whole lot.
Drew Lissy
And for those of you just joining us, we just want to remind you this is our 4th of July celebration night for the boys night. And so we want to try to keep all the conversation in the chats about the Founding Fathers, the early times of America, celebrating our freedom. Sounds good. Let's do our best. JT50 books. Former M1 Abrams crew member here.
Brent Tuckerton
Heck, yeah.
Drew Lissy
Nice close out song. Living in America, but James Brown.
Brent Tuckerton
Wow, that's a good one. And 49.99 might get it. I bet some people pile on that one.
Drew Lissy
That's a good one. I read that Founding Fathers were pranksters and would fart during Congress meetings, Congressional meetings.
Brent Tuckerton
See, when I do it, I'm just. I'm just. It's an ode to the Founding Fathers. Magna Carta. How's the hamburgers doing? Can we see it? Can we see it in the camera? We Got. We're grilling over here. We are. We are in full 4th of July mode.
Drew Lissy
That's right.
Brent Tuckerton

Drew Lissy
There it is. All right, solely back in. Hardest and best thing about working in the antihero podcast.
Brent Tuckerton
Hardest thing is trying to do a professional podcast with a bunch of people who aren't professionals. Yeah, that's not a dig at anyone. That includes me.
Drew Lissy
That's all of us.
Brent Tuckerton
We're all to blame for this. And it's pretty amazing that we do get it done. We apologize that it's not perfect. We. But we do try to get better. The best thing about it, the Thursday Night Live. It's nothing better than this. Drew, you answered that question.
Drew Lissy
Oh, yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
The.

Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, I appreciate it. Let's. Let's do a stop. Let's stop this real quick. Is it too Early. Can we. I just want to sprinkle in these fun facts.
Devin
You just want like a random.
Brent Tuckerton
Just every now and again, I just want a fun fact. Okay, Doll Revere, what do you got?
Devin
All right, we got. Did you know that Benjamin Franklin invented a musical instrument that you play with wet fingers called the glass harmonica? And Mozart actually composed music for it. Franklin said it could make angels weeping. And everyone else said that it was creepy as.
Brent Tuckerton
I never. I. No. I wonder. Why do you have to have wet fingers?
Devin
I don't know.
Brent Tuckerton
He was known as a ladies man. I wonder where he got his wet fingers from.
Devin
Well, then there you have it.
Brent Tuckerton
Let's just try to. Try to keep it. Try to keep it clean. Try to keep it clean. It was just. It was. It. That was. That was. That's on me. That's on. You know what? Order.

Drew Lissy
Joe Saunders. Brent, did. Did frost your beard?
Brent Tuckerton
No. That's. What's. What. What are you talking about? Yeah, it's natural. It's. It's natural. You know, you can't give me crap if I whiten it. You can't give me crap if I darken it. Like, what do you people want from me? What do you want?
Drew Lissy
Pound of flesh? Gat mage. 10 bucks says given the ceremonies tomorrow, can you tell any good Anders stories? Doesn't need to be work related.
Brent Tuckerton
It. Gosh, thanks. Thanks for bringing that up. Yeah, it's been on my heart all day. I hate not being there. Anders Johansson, which is. He was actually my team leader at one point. It's one of the greatest men I have ever served with. And I do hate it a little bit. Like when. When people die and we just psych. We make these stories about how great they are. And I've been. You know, we've. I think we've all been there and we're like, that's true. It's not really who he was, but it's his funeral, so let's say good things about him. No. And Anders there, you couldn't say enough good things about that guy. He was an Eagle Scout. He was a cop before he joined. He was a 911 baby. He was an 18x ray. Went right to the Green Berets. Was an asset on his team went over to the unit. Me and him went to selection together. He went to OTC right before me because I had to go back to selection. My first one was a recce. Okay. I took the next one more serious. The, you know, was. Was just an all star at. At the unit. He was great on low. He was. He was amazing because he was great on low. Vis things, and he was a good assaulter. You could put him in a suit and put him in front of an ambassador one day, and he could go put on kit and a hatchet and go do his job the next and do both equally as well. Just. And just. Just an amazing man. I got sidetracked there for a second because I just want to. I just wanted to tell who. Who. Anders was a funny story about Ender. Oh, okay. No, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go with this one. It's a little bit more of a funny story on me. But it. But it has to do with Anders. He recruited me to be his. His two ic. And he really wanted me on his team. I've known Anders for a long time, so I couldn't tell Anders no to anything. I don't. I don't. It's not. I don't want to be on his team. That team's particular mission I kind of didn't want to do. But Anders was the tl, So I was like, all right. Anders asked me, I will. I will be on your team. And he recruited an all star team. We were the best team in the squadron. He was great. So my very first day of being an assistant team leader, the roads were closed. The back roads, the base were closed. Do you remember when that hurricane came in? Like, washed out all the. The hurricane wasn't so bad, but, like, the standing water was horrible and all these flash floods, and it washed out. What was. What was the back road to base? If you live on the southern pine side, you have to. That long. That long road, it's like 20 minutes. Connects the ATF, McAllister or no. How we forgetting these names?
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, we drove and.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you drove on it. Especially at night.
Brian Y. Adams
Tried Manchester.
Brent Tuckerton
Manchester. You hope not to hit a deer at night. So the. The bridge was out, and I was like, well, this is my first day. I'm not going to let a bridge keep me from getting to work, and I'm not gonna be late on my first day being an assistant team leader. So I took this little. I'll tell you, I don't care. I had a Toyota Prius Okay. At the time, because, hey, when you kill people for a living, you drive whatever you want, okay? It was my work car that I drove to work every day and the hot rod saved in the garage. So anyway, I know it's a long story, but so I took it off road, and it wasn't that bad at first, but those. Those dirt roads got worse and worse and worse and worse, and I eventually got the Prius stuck. And then I had to call Anders and say, anders, I wanted. I wanted so bad to get to work. I'm going to be late. My car is stuck. He goes, all right, I'll come out and get you. He comes out to get me, has to pull my Toyota Prius, who I. That I sank to the frame. He's like, brent, let's just start with this. Why don't you just call me next time and. And. And we'll be good. So my very first time of. First day of being an atl, I got my Prius stuck. Anders had to come out in his big truck, tow me out, and then I had to show up to work and tell the rest of the team why I was late to work and that I'm an idiot. And Anders, Anders took it like a champ. Didn't. Didn't. Could have belittled me. Could have made. Made it funny a little bit, but it was warranted anyway. That's just the type of guy was just rolled with the punches.
Drew Lissy
Nate Taylor says on the chance there are any Brits in the chat, enjoy work tomorrow. Happy birthday, America. Cheers, Brian. And esteemed guests.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, this is one of my. My favorite thing about the fourth is. Is the British memes. Oh, I Love the memes.
Drew Lissy
TBD. Happy 4th, everyone. All the way from Alaska. You guys ever talk with the Delta members who were there at Benghazi to dispute that pinhead Tanto's comments?
Brent Tuckerton
Don't bring up Benghazi because those guys will kick and scream. How dare you question them. Yes, one of them's one of my best, Is one of my best friends. So, yeah, I talk to him all the time.
Drew Lissy
Greg says Brent looks like a wannabe French Santa. Happy Independence Day, boys and girls. God bless America. Red 40 actual says Happy Independence Day. Would you rather fight 10 Vanessa size Tim Kennedy's or 1 Tim Kennedy sized Vanessa? Brian, support your answer.
Brent Tuckerton
Support your answer, Brian Y. Adams.
Brian Y. Adams
Well, first of all, who's Vanessa?
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, no, Brian. Little. Little Asian girl that. That works for us. She's probably five foot at best.
Brian Y. Adams
All right, I'll fight, I'll fight. One Vanessa.
Brent Tuckerton
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. 10 Vanessa size Tim Kennedys or one Tim Kennedy. Yeah. Or 100.
Brian Y. Adams
One Tim Kennedy size Vanessa.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, for sure. Oh, gosh, I screwed that up actually.
Drew Lissy
Just.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, I'll take her on.
Drew Lissy
I don't want to fight ten anything.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, yeah. One. One Timothy size Vanessa. Yeah, that's actually.
Brian Y. Adams
You're not gonna fight 100 kids. They're gonna destroy you.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, yeah.
Drew Lissy
All right. All right. Sean says, Happy 4th Bronc and other dude. Let's. Let's. Let's introduce Brian so that people know who he is.
Brent Tuckerton
Brian, introduce yourself. Because I never. I never know.
Drew Lissy
He's a man who needs no introduction.
Brent Tuckerton
I know, but. And I almost don't want to do that because you won't say enough. And then I. Then I don't want to say too much. So. Yeah. Start with the Ranger regiment, Tom.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah. Ranger Regiment 2001. Joined in January. Made it to 1st Ranger Battalion down in Savannah. Right. I'd say I did one training cycle and then nine. Eleven happened. And I spent eight years there. Went to do the. The long walk. Did a couple recce myself and. And spent the rest of my career there. Retired four years ago.
Brent Tuckerton
How many? This is my favorite. I knew you. I knew you wouldn't say this. How many deployments do you have, Brian?
Brian Y. Adams
On a total? I have 19 in. Within a 20 year span.
Brent Tuckerton
So that's. You know, what would I want to give you credit, but Tim Kennedy has over 20, so. You, sir, have been measured and found lacking.
Brian Y. Adams
That's fine.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Brian Y. Adams
No issues with that.
Brent Tuckerton
All right. All right. There might be more on that, but we'll see.
Drew Lissy
Diving B says, Brent, your frosted beard is looking very hvi. Hvtish. I feel like we should be drinking hvtish. Okay. I feel like we should be drinking tea and asking what you need. Thursdays is for the boys and happy fourth.
Brent Tuckerton
Drew, show them that tea.
Drew Lissy
Oh, man.
Brent Tuckerton
We got.
Drew Lissy
We got some tea here. Let's see.
Brent Tuckerton
Drew brought some tea for the episode.
Drew Lissy
All right, this. This is the. This is the fourth. This is our tea right here. Day ops. It's coming to frcc.shop eventually.
Brent Tuckerton
Yep, yep, yep. Switching our website over.
Drew Lissy
Day ops on target. Great tea right there.
Brent Tuckerton
You can get it right from them. Elevated operator or waited Just a few more days. We'll have it on the website.
Devin
We don't have a harbor, but can we dump it in the moat around Alligator Alcatraz? Hear me out.
Brent Tuckerton
I'll. Oh, I've never been more proud to be a floridian. Than alligator Alcatraz. That's just.
Devin
Let's go put some tea in it tomorrow.
Brent Tuckerton
Let's just. That's just Florida being Florida.
Drew Lissy
And the meme. And the memes are great.
Brent Tuckerton
The memes are great. Oh, man.
Drew Lissy
All the gators saying, I'm here for the border patrol job and all that stuff.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't want to get on my high horse. You might have to double check this. I don't even want to throw it out there. But what they ended up rebelling and kicking tea into the harbor was a minuscule, minuscule tax hike. And they went nuts on it.
Devin
We talked about this.
Brent Tuckerton
If, yeah, if they knew then what we got taxed as Americans now, they'd lose their mind. They lose their mind. What's. What are they. What's that equivalent of like. It's like boiling a frog in water, you know, if you just, if you just slowly turn it up, like, they never really notice it. I feel like that's what happened with us and taxes and it's ridiculous and we should probably do something about it one day. Am I, am I saying it's revolt time? I'm, I'm not. Wink. But it's something we should discuss and maybe organize at a future date, but not now.
Drew Lissy
All right, solely. 1, 2, 3, 4. Back in again. He says, please explain 4th of July for those unaware. Any special memories for this day?
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, man. Around the room. Finish with me. Give a. If anyone has a special July 4th memory, send it.
Drew Lissy
Gosh, just, you know, being a kid and being with my parents, probably in Sanford on Lake Monroe, just watching the fireworks as a kid. I mean, it's just, it's kind of magical. And a celebration about being a free American. What's better than that? There's Vanessa.
Devin
So if you're worried about Vanessa size. That's it.
Brian Y. Adams
All right.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Devin
Yay high.
Brian Y. Adams
I made a wise choice.
Devin
You did.
Brent Tuckerton
Brian, what do you remember? What's your favorite July 4th memory?
Brian Y. Adams
You know, I have quite a few, and I think it. And it all stems back to, to childhood. Born in the 70s, raised in the 80s and 90s.
Brent Tuckerton
It's.
Brian Y. Adams
It. Bottle Rocket wars, Roman candle wars, lighter fluid, you know, and a, A bit of danger. Just, you know, come home with all your fingers and, you know, not everyone does. And yes, not everyone does. And if the, if the, if the, the police show up, then at least for. It's not like anything major.
Brent Tuckerton
Plus, if they showed up, you know, you did it. Right?
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah. I, I, we, we could just, I don't know, I seemed like we had way more fun.
Brent Tuckerton
All right.
Brian Y. Adams
Back in the day, a lot, you know, less. Less restrictions.
Brent Tuckerton
So $revere not and knows nothing about the 70s or 80s. Barely remembers of 90s.
Devin
Remember, it was yesterday. First off. Second off. My dad served in Vietnam, so every day was pretty much the fourth of July. But my mom was actually more patriotic than he was. And she's in this, so I'm not gonna say too much, Mom, I'm not gonna put you on the spot. But every 4th of July, we'd swing by a VFW. We'd have a shot right next to the reserve table. Yeah, for the boys. And that just became a tradition. VFW's American Legions, you name it. Her tits were never in her shirt. But, you know, it was for the boys.
Brent Tuckerton
For the boys.
Devin
For the boys.
Brent Tuckerton
And you still have an affinity for VFWs? I still do.
Devin
It's my favorite place to get a dollar beer. What more do you want?
Brent Tuckerton
I know favorite. Same as Drew, obviously. We grew up together, so same thing. But I'll take this short time to remind you of what July 4th was. July 4th, 1776, was the day we signed the Declaration of Independence and declared the 13 colonies free from the British. So it was a pretty big day.
Drew Lissy
All right. Zulu whiskey says, what the F is a kilogram?
Brent Tuckerton
Fair enough.
Drew Lissy
It's a good question. Ole Fook says evening. Please disconnect the smoke detector in the studio with the bbq unless you want Tyler's man crush firefighters show up.
Brent Tuckerton
I know. Well, yeah.
Devin
Somebody call Ray Gun.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, it's not a fancy place. We don't have any smoke detectors.
Brent Tuckerton
I didn't even look. But you know what? There's no way we do with as much as we spoke in here.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, we would have known.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Let's stop for just a second. Another fun fact.
Devin
Okay. Thomas Jefferson, obsessed with giant moose. He tried to prove to Europeans that American animals were bigger and better. So he shipped a massive moose carcass to France to prove his point. And it stunk horribly by the time that it arrived.
Brent Tuckerton
I love that we've been doing America stuff for a long time. Not only are not only bigger and better, our animals are bigger and better. We'll ship it over for it to prove it.
Brian Y. Adams
100. And if you would have done that today, it would have made it. It would have made it. It would have made it. You know, it wouldn't have spoiled before it got there. So looking back on it, what a. A patriotic thing to do. And it was a gift.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, Tom.
Drew Lissy
All right, we got Tim. Huns. The Founding Fathers weren't called that until 1916.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you, Tim.
Drew Lissy
Nice one.
Brent Tuckerton
Someone's got the memo.
Drew Lissy
There you go, buddy. I love it. Three of the founding fathers have fired on July 4th.
Brent Tuckerton
Also have fired.
Brian Y. Adams
Were fired.
Drew Lissy
Maybe they were fired.
Brent Tuckerton
Fired. Gosh, Tim, please tell us what you meant by that. We have to know. Yeah. All right. What do we got?
Drew Lissy
All right. JT says, I know he's not technically a Founding Father, but can we acknowledge how much of a bad arse Daniel Boone was? Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, for sure.
Drew Lissy
Absolutely. 100.
Brent Tuckerton
Then I'm gonna say something stupid. He died in the Alamo, right? Didn't Daniel Boone go down the Alamo and then go down swinging down there? How do we.
Devin
I can check that.
Brent Tuckerton
Right? Please check it. And I hope I'm right. Which means I thought.
Drew Lissy
Was it later? Didn't he. Did he become like a congressman later?
Brent Tuckerton
And if not Daniel Boone, then who am I thinking of?
Drew Lissy
Can Tennessee.
Devin
I will check that. However, I was sooner checking the tax.
Drew Lissy
What was tax?
Devin
Then what. What caused us to po. And harbors?
Brent Tuckerton
Damn it, Crockett.
Devin
Damn it.
Brent Tuckerton
Sorry.
Devin
What would be equivalent to that tax today would be 5%. And we're not doing about it.
Brent Tuckerton
And we're way over that. We're taxed at, like, total. Between sales tax, you know, the. The real estate tax, your income tax. We're tax. Gas tax. When you had a. All the taxes, we're taxed at like 40 to 50%. That's crazy. When you add up all of it. Davy Crockett. Davy Crockett was the one. Yeah. Yeah. Daniel Boone was. The guy. Was a man. Was a big man, but the bear was bigger. There's.
Drew Lissy
So he ran like.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't. There's. I. There's a childhood. I can't.
Drew Lissy
Something trigger.
Brent Tuckerton
Yep. Okay.
Drew Lissy
All right. Anyway. So Matthew Sampson says Brent double Ds count as Delta 2. LumberJeff says Sir Brent the first. Since you can't eat a banana like a man, here's seven Washingtons to purchase your very own Hutzler banana slicer. Cheers.
Brent Tuckerton
That's good. Okay. Thank you.
Drew Lissy
Joe Saunders says running a grill. Please don't as fixate yourself. All right, we'll do it. We move the grill out.
Brent Tuckerton
We move the grill out. Magna Carter, how the burgers looking?
Drew Lissy
How's the beef?
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, I thought you screwed them up.
Drew Lissy
Oh, look at that beef.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, okay. All right, all right.
Drew Lissy
All right. Let's see. Concerned citizen. 6,000, 643. Thank you for your concern. With $5. Thank you, sir. Appreciate it. Chris says just watch the new SRS episode with J. Cal. Yeah, I've been seeing clips of that former 22 SAs. In the interview he mentioned working with Delta quite a bit and praised how professional the unit is. Just curious if you know him.
Brent Tuckerton
No, I did not know him as well as. Kind of curious to see what he had to say. I just. It's hard to get through a four hour episode, but I probably will get through that one at some point. I've seen a lot of clips, things he's saying they were accused of murder and murdering civilians and they, and the way the British government went about it and, and ended up, as far as I understand, clearing them eventually, but just treated them like absolute criminals. Let me tell you. I'm glad you're here because I feel like a broken record saying, you know how much I love the sas. What's your experience with the sas?
Brian Y. Adams
It's my experience. Very, very minimal.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Brian Y. Adams
But as you know, and it's just been crossing. Maybe you're just talking about a little bit of time with them. Some, some, some training. But uh, it, it's a, it's a professional. They're super professional.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
And I say I, I always like the exchange, interaction, whatever and you always get, you're always giving something and getting something and taking something away from them and boy, I think professionalism and I say it's, it's a great dude. A lot of, a lot of training with them.
Brent Tuckerton
Did you know I brought shields back to my squadron because of the sas?
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, no joke.
Brent Tuckerton
That's, that's what, that's what started shields at the unit and it was, it was, it was because of them.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, I think a lot, A lot of units or even on. In the law enforcement, it's. You're want to, you want to go train with the best and I think going into that you. To don't doubt yourself that you have something to take away or to give as well.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, for sure.
Brian Y. Adams
A lot of stuff just like you said, like something as simple as a shield. How is that applied and. All right, let's, let's take that. How can we use it?
Brent Tuckerton
I'm gonna use the wrong word, but it's just the, the word I like to use. But you know that they have a, you know, a counterterrorism conus. Mission. Con. I don't know. Con. Continental UK Mission. They can do counterterrorism inside their, inside.
Brian Y. Adams
Their country, which every country should be able to do.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, could you? Yeah, well, we can't because the HRT and because of our constitution, which I get it, but how cool would that be?
Brian Y. Adams
Maybe it's.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
As a civilian, we just come together as civilians to do it.
Brent Tuckerton
That's right. And that. And that's actually how I know that watching them do some training. Conus. Gosh, not conus. In. In the homeland is where I saw him use shields. And I was like, I've seen you guys. We had an LNO with us all the time. It's like, I've never seen you wear a shield or use a shield. They're like, yeah, because you guys don't use shields. And so we didn't want to look like in front of you guys. I was like, but you don't want to mention it once. Like, just mention it once. Yeah. I had to go. I had to go all the way across to the pond to. To see him work. Work shields.
Drew Lissy
Anyway, concerned citizens sprinkling a little bit more freedom on us. Thank you very much. All right. Ruski Pierogi. Sorry I destroyed that name, but I love your comment here, brother. It says, Casimir Pulaski, a Polish noble dubbed as the father of American Calvary. Fought alongside Washington for America's freedom. Not a nobleman, just a dude from a village in Poland, but served this country and proud to be an American. Happy 4th Morika.
Brent Tuckerton
No, you say it right.
Drew Lissy
Morica.
Brent Tuckerton
All right, real quick, let's talk about tasty gains. Word for our sponsor, Taste Greens has creatine as multiple benefits, but the main are increased power in your workouts, hydrates your muscles and leaves them looking more full, faster recovery. There's been multiple notable studies, a creatine benefit to brain health as well. I would never recommend a supplement that I haven't personally vetted. Everyone on Antihero loves the gummies. You will, too. So if you want to get bigger and have more power in your workouts, recover faster, I'd suggest getting a couple bottles. Use code Anti Hero. Anti Hero is the code for 20% off. And yes, I do use them because it's a lot easier to pop in those gummies than it is to make a creatine shake.
Drew Lissy
All right, peckers out for Tyler Girth. Hey, what about Robert E. Lee Tucker? When is he coming on the pod?
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, if. If our little brother was here, that's what he would be. He would be Robert e. Lee Tucker 100. He's finish up retiring. We're gonna get him out alive, but maybe we'll get dad in here in the middle and next time, Tyler's out. We'll just have, like, the All Tucker podcast. I thought that was your sister. A little sister. Little sister, yeah.
Drew Lissy
Yeah. And I think he's born the same month Robert E. Lee was born.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, yeah.
Drew Lissy
Like days apart.
Brent Tuckerton
All right.
Drew Lissy
David Hookstead. 20 bucks.
Brent Tuckerton
David Hookstead.
Drew Lissy
Best patriotic movie. To set the tone for 4th of July, my go to is Miracle. About the miracle on ice. Never gets old.
Brent Tuckerton
I'm telling you, that's. That's a. Odd one to go with on the surface, but I'm telling you, every time I watch that movie, I get absolute goosebumps. And I tear up like a bitch when they beat the Russians. And those. Those locker room talks and them just putting it all on the line for each other. It gets me. I love that movie. Have you seen that movie? Oh, Devin, we're watching it.
Drew Lissy
It's a long time ago.
Brent Tuckerton
We're watching it. Brian, have you seen that movie?
Brian Y. Adams
I have not.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, David, thanks for. We're striking out. Drew, have you seen the movie?
Drew Lissy
Yeah, of course.
Brent Tuckerton
Yes.
Brian Y. Adams

Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, of course. Okay. Amazing movie. Yeah, it was so great. I. Best patriotic movie. This is the one. This is what I'm going for. The Patriot.

Brent Tuckerton
Gosh, it's savage. So savage.
Drew Lissy

Brent Tuckerton
And when his little girl comes up to him and starts crying and says, don't go. Get out of here. First time she spoke. The first time she speaks. Oh, man. And when he just goes savage, you know, on everyone and tells that story.
Drew Lissy
Well, he loses his son.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh. Oh, that.
Drew Lissy
Come on. And then he has to go fight because of that.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Does anyone have any other honorable mentions for Fourth of July movies? If anyone says Independence Day, you can leave.
Drew Lissy
Okay, I think unsubscribe and get the hell out of here. All right. Isaiah Fulbright says the only thing Tim Kennedy has ever shot is some semen on his own face. Sheesh, man.
Brent Tuckerton
Coming.
Drew Lissy
Whoa.
Brent Tuckerton
Coming strong with that one, man.
Drew Lissy
That's got fireworks in that one.

Drew Lissy
G'.
Brent Tuckerton

Drew Lissy
Black Betty. Founding father's fact.
Brent Tuckerton

Drew Lissy
Ben Franklin might have been the founder of the freak off. Old buddy was a freak in the sheets.
Brent Tuckerton
Yes. It's well known.
Brian Y. Adams
And he spent a lot of time in England, Correct?
Brent Tuckerton
Yes.
Drew Lissy
Paris.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, yeah. Paris.
Brian Y. Adams
Okay.
Brent Tuckerton
As an ambassador. And I believe he enjoyed going over there.
Brian Y. Adams
This is the best. Best time he had. Best time of his life.
Drew Lissy
All right, Magnum handout. Happy 4th. Got the box and cigars Monday and couldn't be happier. Next time I'm down In Florida. I'll have to drop off challenge coins for everyone.
Brent Tuckerton
Heck, yeah. Please do.
Drew Lissy
Thank you, Chris Smith. Happy 4th of July from Australia. I've been lucky enough to spend a couple of them in Dallas. Nothing compares to Marika's birthday.
Brent Tuckerton
It is pretty awesome. Can. Can I vent for a second about the fourth of July? There's one thing as a vet that really irks me about the fourth of July.
Brian Y. Adams
Let's hear it.
Brent Tuckerton
You want to take a guess? You might be able to guess this, Devin. People taking day off America. No. Do you have an urgent.
Devin
Because I have one that pisses me off.
Brent Tuckerton
What do you got?
Devin
So here's the thing. The lefties. Lefties that hate America all year, and you see the blue haired girls that are like, I got my nails done. You're like, you hate this country every other day of the year.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Devin
However, now you want your day off. You want to go get festive.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, that's a great point. Yeah. Don't hit America 364 days out of a year and then just hop the fence and be like, yeah, let's party. No, you don't get to party. That's what this is for. Drew, anything irk you about the fourth before I. Before I get on my soapbox?
Drew Lissy
Absolutely. People driving slow in the left lane. God just kills me every day, especially on the 4th.
Brent Tuckerton
I see you're just using this to rant about something. Okay. All right. It's one of those things, like on. I feel like only a vet can say this. The vets that pretend to have PTSD over fireworks pisses me off so bad. And it kind of. It's actually. I feel like it's starting to tamp down a little bit. But just a few years ago, it was bad. I've seen like, like signs in people's yards. It was like, you know, vet lives here. You know, be. You know, be. I forget what it said, but something like, you know, be mindful of fireworks. Get out of here.
Drew Lissy
They do the same thing for animals.
Brent Tuckerton
I've never get pets. Yeah. Guess what? Guess what was never shot at me overseas. I didn't deploy as much as you, Brian, so humor me. No one ever shot fireworks at me. Okay. And so the booms of fireworks and looking at fireworks doesn't, like, bring me back to a bad night in Syria or Afghanistan because fireworks are going off. Like, that's just. I. I don't understand. Like, I really don't. Yeah. But it's just. It's. It's my thing.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah. Never, never set Me off for me is okay. I think that's a. That's a neighborhood thing. Maybe it's a neighbor thing for one. If you've got that sign. Some.
Brent Tuckerton
So what.
Brian Y. Adams
When did you serve? You know, what kind of. What kind of are we talking about here? Where to. Where fireworks could.
Brent Tuckerton
But. And you know, it's. It's. It's just. It's just how I feel. I really think they use this as an opportunity to let everyone know around them that they served. I guess that's what it really is. It's just an opportunity. Like, hey, I. I saw things, you.
Brian Y. Adams
Know, and if the signs in the yard is not like a Fourth of July is coming, you know, veteran here. Be careful.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
That's what the signs to say. Because fireworks are going to blast off on this house all night long.
Brent Tuckerton
All right.
Brian Y. Adams
That. That's a sign that needs to be in the yard.
Brent Tuckerton
Let freedom ring.
Brian Y. Adams
Right.
Brent Tuckerton
I know. I know. All right. What do we got?
Drew Lissy
Zulu whiskey. Our man says when Brent said a man dies two times. Once in life and once when his name is said for the last time. Keep those memories alive.
Brent Tuckerton
Absolutely.
Devin
That's a great segue. Hold on. I got a fun fact for that. Ready?
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. All right.
Devin
John Adams and Thomas Jefferson died on the same day. Know what day it was?
Brent Tuckerton
What?
Devin
The fourth of July.
Brent Tuckerton
You think that's maybe he was talking about.
Drew Lissy
Yeah. Fired. Maybe he meant. Maybe it was a text thing said.
Devin
Wait for it.
Brent Tuckerton
They both. Okay.
Devin
No joke. Both croaked on July 4, 1826, exactly 50 years after signing the Declaration of Independence. Adam's last words. Thomas Jefferson survives. And he didn't. Wild. Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
That is wild. That's cool.
Devin
That's cool.
Brent Tuckerton
They're so patriotic, they even died. Patriotic man Love says evil Abe Lincoln.
Drew Lissy
Says time to get naked and start the revolution. Boys. No Girls. Loud. That's a very fun.
Brent Tuckerton
Or about to get naked.
Devin
I brought my ones for them.
Brian Y. Adams
It was just a bunch of dudes getting naked.
Brent Tuckerton
That's what.
Drew Lissy
It's either very fun or a very gay comment. One or the other. I don't know.
Brent Tuckerton
I just got weird water.
Brian Y. Adams
Sorry. I understand what you're saying, though.
Drew Lissy
Appointment podcast says on patrol up here in Massachusetts. Didn't want to miss Thursday night. Nice for the boys. Brent, did you go through Team o'? Neill? Really?
Brian Y. Adams
Rally.
Drew Lissy
Rally School in New Hampshire.
Brent Tuckerton
O'. Neal.
Brian Y. Adams
Tim o'.
Brent Tuckerton
Neill. I didn't go to Timo.
Brian Y. Adams
They came down. Down to Bragg and I was thinking, great Scott.
Brent Tuckerton
Race.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah. Yeah. Off. Off road rally.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. School.
Brian Y. Adams
Good, good, good. Guys, good training.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, I knew. I heard of them and I knew guys went to that.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Legit. Legit school.
Brent Tuckerton
Don't you dare.
Drew Lissy
Can Conor and can 6969. I don't know what's going on there. Brent Tuckerton looks more like Osama Brent Laden.
Brian Y. Adams
Wow. I didn't want to mention anything, but thanks.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, the white hair starting to look like a turban now that he said it.
Brent Tuckerton
Well, I. I hope Robert o' Neil from the SEAL battalion doesn't walk in the room all by himself and put two in my head as I'm standing and then one on my. One on my head as I'm in the ground, as. On the floor as. As he does. As. As he says. With Devin standing in front of you. With Dan. Yeah, with Devin standing in front of me. And he. When he sees me, he'll recognize me immediately, and he'll say I was taller than he thought. He'll say my beard was more gray than he thought. And. And he'd send it. He's a killer in his own mind.
Drew Lissy
Ted Laning says, where's the dog? He needs some pizza crust. Also, that's old Max, also good friend of mine. Did you work with Travis K. He was a former unit guy. What is your favorite cigar?
Brent Tuckerton
Gosh, I know a couple Travis's. So I'm trying to think which one would might end in a K. Favorite cigar. I'm going Rocky Patel, 60. It's still a solid one. This. Okay. This is an odd flex. And I. I don't mean it to be a flex. We were just at the Hard Rock Cafe, posted a picture of it. People were wondering whose legs those. Those were. They weren't Tyler's. They may have been doll reverse. And I bought. I was just. I bought a 300. 250.
Devin
250.
Brent Tuckerton
I bought a 250 cigar. And I was like, it's. It's just. I don't. I just don't do things like a whole lot like that. I'm like, I'm gonna try it. And it was the most mediocre cigar I've ever had. And it was a hard pool cigar, which pissed me off. That's aggravating even more.
Drew Lissy
Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
So. And it didn't even compare to, like a $25 Rocky Patel, 60. So that's the last time. Last time I go baller on a cigar just to get disappointed.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah.
Drew Lissy
How did it compare to an frcc. Bravo.
Brent Tuckerton
It was. It was trash. Just trash. I'm upset about it. Actually, if I was. If I was that guy, I actually would have complained about it.
Devin
I should have can confirm.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah that Bravo Maduro is one of my favorites. But I also like the rocket picture tell bbs. Yeah, but it's a good, good cigar.
Brent Tuckerton
Parts like. Well, maybe. Maybe you don't even know like how good a cigar can be. Like if you don't try it. You know, I mean, I just wanted to know. Yeah. Never again.
Drew Lissy
Mikey. Roberto says Brianna, that's you. Brian was a fellow. Was a fellow 15 member from 2016 to 2025. Was going to drop in tonight, but ran into some transportation issues. Apologies. Love the podcast and hope to be able to come by in the future.
Brent Tuckerton
Actually, he's talking to me and we.
Drew Lissy
Oh, my bad.
Brent Tuckerton
I think he's talking about 2315. My old Oda.
Drew Lissy
Okay.
Brian Y. Adams
Okay. So he was gonna say I missed that big time.
Brent Tuckerton
That's right. I get it.
Drew Lissy
Ryan. Ryanna.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, that's awesome. Oh, man, I really wish you could have got here it. Even though I've never met him, I don't know what it is. I don't know if what would be the equivalent. Oh, I guess from the unit. But any guy who's ever served on a team that you were on, even though you didn't even meet them, like, it's, it's. It's almost like the equivalent of meeting an SAS guy and. Yeah. An adult guy. Like, they just get like the immediate pass of, let's come hang out.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah. I, I think I. You get the occasional like, hey, were you at this location during this time? You know, whether it's passed by or you, you worked with them? It's.
Brent Tuckerton
Here's a crazy story. I wish I could. Gosh. Guys, remember the Bulldog Bite was named the operation. But a guy that was on my team, we were just talking in Syria one day and we're talking about just Afghanistan operations. And I brought up Bulldog Bite. I knew the Rangers were there. And he goes, you were on the SF team at Bulldog Bite because we were the Ranger element at Bulldog Bite. And two guys at the same time at the same battle in Afghanistan end up at the unit, on the scene, tamed on the same team together in Syria. And it blew my mind. And I'd known him for a year before, before that story even came out. So crazy.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah. And it's just things align like that that are like, you'll never know it until it happens. And it's, it's. You go back to different occurrences.
Brent Tuckerton
The chances that happening has got to be so slim. But. But yet it happens all the time. I don't say all the time, but it happens a lot. Yeah. Yeah. What else we got?
Drew Lissy
Mr. Long Balls has current 18 Bravo in the queue.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, thank you, sir.
Drew Lissy
Any tips to be successful in the course besides listen to the antihero pod? Tim Kennedy is the most hated man at SWCS. At SFAS, they checked us for GPSs and reference. Tim Kennedy was hilarious.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, wow. We'll take credit for that. The. I think the best. And this is just life in general, but hang out with other good dudes in the Q course, you know who they are. They're the ones bigger, stronger, faster than you. A little bit stronger, maybe even a little bit cooler than you are, which is what I did. I was the dorkiest guy in my group. I hung out with guys that were bigger, stronger, faster, cooler than me. And they. And they brought me up. Never be. Never be the strongest, coolest, smartest guy in your group because you. Because you. You won't. You won't get pushed. You won't get pushed.
Devin
You don't have to worry about that.
Drew Lissy
So I made it. All right, let's see. Ken says get a girl that'll humble.
Brent Tuckerton
You on the regular.
Drew Lissy
That means she likes you. Torn taint and a Prius. I don't know, Brian starting to get suspicious.
Brent Tuckerton
I. I know that one's gonna haunt me, but you know what? I just. I own it. What do you want me to do? I own it.
Drew Lissy
Chambo. LB says intro. Had me laugh, crying. President Tucker, on which FRCC cigar would George Washington have been burning while whooping that red coat?
Brent Tuckerton
Our Delta. All day long he'd have been smoking a Delta. And you know what? I don't want to get off off subject here. He did eventually whip that arse. And I want to do a podcast on George Washington. Let me, let me, let me throw some George Washington fun facts here just for a second. It's a story. But, but we're all here to learn something about our founding fathers. George Washington got his ass kicked in New York. He was tasked to keep the Brits out of New York and he got pushed out. They tried to hold not to long after that, and everybody ran on the American side. And he lost battle after battle after battle. And the Continental Congress wanted George Washington out to a degree. He was not a very popular man because he was the man that was supposed to beat the British and he was doing nothing but getting his butt kicked. This happened for about a year. So the crossing at the Delaware was huge because all of the, all the soldiers on the American side were on a one year contract. And so he was about to lose all the soldiers. All the soldiers, they were only on a one year contract. Most of them hadn't been paid. They're under equipped. They've been losing this whole time. So the crossing of the Delaware, not only was it one of the most badass special operations type missions before its time, he needed a win so bad because if he didn't get a win, if he didn't give these guys a reason to stay on, they were all going to leave. So a part of it was out of necessity. So if he didn't do that, they're going to leave or he wouldn't have an army to do any missions with. So when he crossed it again, it was really out of necessity as well as just being a badass. And a lot of people forget the, the target wasn't on just the other side of the river like it just crossing the river is where it started. And they crossed the river from two different points. One point turned back because the weather was so bad. George Washington was the only one that actually got across the river. So he gets across river with half his force. They're behind schedule and they have to pull everything, cannons and all, another five miles before they get to the battle and whip that ass. And it was really one of like the turning points of the war. And people forget, people just think they hear all the, all the good stories about how George, watch him, was just, you know, a brilliant commander, but he lost a lot more than he won for a whole year. He lost everything for a full year until he finally did that badass move. So there you go. There's a great story about George Washington. I got a ton more.
Devin
And hopefully to make a motion change it from the founding fathers to the Pounding Father.
Brent Tuckerton
The Pounding Fathers sounds a little gay too. I don't. I see. I'm. I'm torn.
Drew Lissy
This generation has destroyed.
Brent Tuckerton
I know too many good words. I'm torn like a tank.
Drew Lissy
All right, turn my mic on. Concerned citizen back in. Nate at Valhalla. Ask Aaron Love why he does TK shite. Posting selfies on Instagram when searching for Cole's body. Weird.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't know. Yeah, I, I've. Aaron Love looked at. Anyone have any more insight about that? I have to look up old Aaron Love, see what he's up to.
Drew Lissy
Chats can tune in on that. Okay, Danny Blue collar America won independence by arm wrestle. That's a fact. Britt started Drinking tea from that day on. Brent, I seen you sporting a Sig 320 yesterday.
Brent Tuckerton
No, you didn't. Lies. I had to think for a second to make sure. Every now and again I go shooting at ranges and maybe, like, someone may have given me one to. To shoot and. And posted. So I decided to think about it.
Devin
I'll be over here.
Brent Tuckerton
As you should. As you should. I don't. I hope not. I hope that was just a. A wild. A wild accusation.
Brian Y. Adams
Was it AI?
Brent Tuckerton
It was AI. Yeah. It was fake. Yeah. Yeah, man. But not our intro. That was all real.
Brian Y. Adams
Oh, yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
100.
Drew Lissy
All right. We. We might have missed a few super chats. We gotta roll through some of these, I guess.
Brent Tuckerton
Get it.
Drew Lissy
Brody Martin. 100 bucks, man. Thanks for the love. We really appreciate it. I graduated boot Camp at Fort Leonard Wood on July 4th weekend 2002. I had lobster and fake Budweiser in Kuwait after an Iraq rotation on 4th of July, 2003. God bless America and the Anti Arrow podcast. Voting for Living in America by James Honor Bucks.
Brent Tuckerton
That's. That's an unlikely hero of an outro song for this. I'm actually upset that I didn't even think about. I was thinking of some outro songs that I thought were going to come up, and that wasn't one of them. I'm embarrassed.
Drew Lissy
Brody Bucks. Thank you. Scott's back in. Says Frederick Wilhelm August Heinrich Ferdinand Freier von Steuben was a Prussian general that trained the Continental Army.
Brent Tuckerton
Wow. Was that his full name?
Drew Lissy
Frederick Wilhelm August Heinrich Ferdinand Freyr von Steuben.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you. Oh, now, when you say it like that. I have heard of him.
Drew Lissy
See, you gotta have that.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Drew Lissy
The Prussian general. Thank you, Scott. That was a good one, Tim. Huns. Sorry for the typo. Three of them have died on July 4th.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Drew Lissy
All right.
Brent Tuckerton
Well, we got two of them.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, we got two.
Brent Tuckerton
Who's the third? Oh, man, I love this statement.
Drew Lissy
It's only treason if you lose.
Brent Tuckerton
It's so true. It's so. I mean, just think about it for a second. If we'd have lost that war, the Revolutionary War, we. We'd probably still be under, like, you know, British control. And we. And that. That story in history would be how the traitors and, you know, and how it would be called, like, the war of treason. And we'd hate all those people that we now think are amazing. That's pretty crazy. Yeah, it is pretty crazy to think about.
Devin
Wrong. There was three. John Adams, Thomas Jefferson. Died July 4, 1826, age 90 and 83. Last one. James Monroe. July 4, 1831. Age 73.
Brent Tuckerton
That's pretty old for back then of sorts. One made it to 90.
Devin
That's unheard of.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Wow.
Drew Lissy
And they smoke tobacco. Wesley Pruitt. Well, man, just probably our biggest donor. We really appreciate you, Wesley.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you, Wesley.
Drew Lissy
Every week, man. 200 bucks for Brent and the gang to cross the alligator Alcatraz moat and spirit of 76 garb a la Washington, Crossing the Delaware.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, my gosh. Please get us in the airboat. All of us in this. Get up and. And recreate the crossing of the Delaware.
Drew Lissy
Oh, that's.
Devin
We might make it on Fox News.
Drew Lissy
Hey, I can do it.
Brent Tuckerton
I want to do it now.
Drew Lissy
Good idea, Wesley. Ape with a gun. I have not yet begun to fight. John Paul Jones. Happy Independence Day. Y' all gonna be in Orlando in August. How do I pull up?
Brent Tuckerton
Absolutely. Shoot us an email. The antiheropodcastmail.com. that's an easy way to get hold of us. We love it when. When people come to the. To the studio.
Drew Lissy
TK's tiny peen. My favorite Fourth of July memory. Two bags of grenades while riding a mule, shirtless into the battle of Iceland in 2014.
Brent Tuckerton
It's a classic one. Nice. Here's a. I picked that. Here's another little fun story I forgot about. On the 4th of July, I was in the 18 echo course. During the Q course and the 4th of July, we have this thing called max gain, which is we fly out to Oklahoma, and you have, like, you're in these small combo teams, and you have to make these radio shots, satcom shots, HF shots back to Fort Bragg, kind of simulating, you know, going. Going far and making shots. And it's horrible. It's horrible. Like, you have 120 pound ruck sacks. You have to move. You have to make this shot from this location. You have to move all day to get the next location. And if you don't make a certain percentage of your shots, commo shots, you. You're kicked out of the course. So it's one of those things, like, every echo is concerned about, like, getting through. Max gain, it's an ass kicker. And there's a lake around there, and you could hear all the boats on the lake, you could hear all the party, and you can hear everybody having a good time while you smell like ammonia and your body eating your own muscle and sweating and not, you know, haven't had a bath in days. Just hating life. And those guys on the lake on the other side of the Trees are having the best time of their life. And then a, a tornado came through the next day and it wiped out all the roads. And we couldn't get resupplied like they would. They would, they had a drop off some MREs and bottles of water every now and again as a resupply. They couldn't get to us and we didn't know that. We're like, we just. Where are the instructors at? They eventually sent us a comma shot letting us know. So they went and got Blackhawks and they tried to, they tried to resupply us with Blackhawks, but most of the water would shatter when it hit the ground. And it was, I was just, it was just a crazy kind of training exercise and it turned into like a legit survival event as, as we were out there, unable to get really resupplied, rationing water, living through tornadoes like we. You could hear the growl of their tornado like that night. It was just kind of a crazy. Yeah, that was the Fourth of July. I forgot about that.
Brian Y. Adams
That's quite an experience though. You can't recreate that.
Brent Tuckerton
It's one of those experiences like the guys that Bo, Bo is with me on that. Like you've, like you, you become best friends. Like and, and those, like those, those are like the, the times that Bo's in here is Bo in the chat. Oh, hold on, let me say something about Bo just real quick before, before I get too far. Bo does some great, great work with his, the. Oh, gosh, what's the name of this. Not of, of the non profit that.
Devin
He'S doing an event tomorrow.
Brent Tuckerton
It's called Something for the Fallen. Gosh, give me a second. But 50 for the fallen.
Devin

Brent Tuckerton

Drew Lissy
I want to skip a couple of chats. We're going to come back.
Brent Tuckerton
Sorry, Slay the Clay dot com. You can get some more information on it.
Drew Lissy
Holy fook says. How can we be sure those burgers Magna Carta are cooking a real. Are you sure you didn't just go down to Burger King.
Brent Tuckerton
I know.
Drew Lissy
Is there a burger cam?
Brent Tuckerton
Why are the burgers just sitting there getting cold? We got buns. We got accoutrements. We got. We got. We got all the things, and they're just. And they're just sitting there. Our. Our eyes are burning from the grill, yet we get no satisfaction from it.
Devin
Okay. And no glory.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. All pain, no glory.
Drew Lissy
Charcoal is guy. Some as charcoal, but this thing is. Can't keep it in here. It's got to go out.
Devin
Got to go.
Drew Lissy
This is.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. You know, Drew, let someone else do that. You're producing. I need. I needed. I need you to change the. The came angle for the next thing I want to talk about. I can do it all, but you can't do it all in a timely manner.
Devin
We're already at nine.
Brent Tuckerton
Look at all the smoke coming in. All right, switch camera back here. I got half of mine.
Drew Lissy
I know you do.
Brent Tuckerton
All right. I got.
Drew Lissy
You know, that's another one you don't start things with.
Brent Tuckerton
I. I have. I don't know what.
Drew Lissy
Be honest.
Brent Tuckerton
Brent, I have a thought to bring the LED lights in front of the flag and make that our permanent backdrop. I love that big flag in. In the background. It looks. I love it. Let's go, America. All right.
Drew Lissy
Holden 2 Dick says Drew, your Dre, you dress like chef Boyardee. The team you version. Brent looks like the trans Mrs. Doubtfire. Make y' all grill some of those foot longs for TK Happy 4th. 4th, guys.
Brent Tuckerton
How does Magnet Carta get out of being made fun of? Or. Or you're just missing a clock to look like that rapper Flavor. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Flavor. Flavor. Flavor Fourth Flav over there.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah. It was my time frame, but.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, that's right.
Brian Y. Adams
Yes. In the comments and.
Brent Tuckerton
And. And. And Doll Revere just goes unscathed because she's a female. That's. That's not. That's not being fair to everyone.
Devin
I can take a roast.
Drew Lissy
Little diversity.
Devin
Anything to say? I can take it.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Everyone wants to be treated equal. We'll treat him equal.
Drew Lissy
Burton says. Bert, you really disappointed me in Monday's interview when you didn't ask Pete if the foreign fighter squatted to squat to pee.
Brent Tuckerton
I didn't have to. I know they do. We talked about that. We did Muslims last week. Muslims squat to pee, so I don't.
Drew Lissy
All right.
Brent Tuckerton
In fact, I appreciate dollar veer. She also does not squat to pee for that same reason. Fun fact story.
Drew Lissy
Nice Joe Saunders question for all the army brothers. Did you know rangers started in the revolution they actually exited on both sides. Google it.
Brent Tuckerton
Exited on both sides.
Drew Lissy
They actually exited.
Brent Tuckerton
Why are they exit on both sides?
Brian Y. Adams
Exited or existed.
Brent Tuckerton
Existed on both sides? Possibly. What do you know about Rangers that far back? I know about rangers in Vietnam. Obviously the rangers that were in World War II that helped scale the. The amount on the invasion of Normandy is in that part. You're part of Ranger history.
Brian Y. Adams
Yes, it is.
Brent Tuckerton
You go back to the cliff or whatever.
Brian Y. Adams
Robert's Rangers.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, Roberts Rangers. That's. That's it. What was. What. What was Robert's Rangers a part of?
Brian Y. Adams
I have to look that one up.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh. Oh, I thought you were a Ranger.
Drew Lissy
I was all the way.
Brian Y. Adams
I. I know my era.
Drew Lissy
I know the history that counts.
Brent Tuckerton
All right, what else we got?
Drew Lissy
Madman 26. Blent. You look like UBL. Watch for Rob, Chris.
Brent Tuckerton
1755, Major Robert Rogers. There you go. All right. All right. There you go.
Drew Lissy
Chris Ledesma says Team America theme song for the outro.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, Team America is a good one. That if a couple more jump on that, I would consider doing a dual outro.
Devin
What was that?
Brent Tuckerton
2020. And you know, you know what we listened to before this? I'm surprised no one's asked for this. But that. That. That AI Faithful video with Trump and Elon. Yeah. That's one of the best AI Rock songs I've ever heard. And no one's even mentioned it. That's. That. That's pretty America, but maybe it's not old enough.
Drew Lissy
All right, Xavier Guzman says Brent over here looking like a Taliban leader. Taliban leader. Lol.
Brent Tuckerton
What. What is going on here? Is. Is. Is the eagle hiding my awesome regalia? I don't. I don't. I don't understand.
Drew Lissy
You only went half in, though.
Brent Tuckerton
You didn't go full.
Drew Lissy
Stand up, Brent. Move. Move a little to the left.
Devin
Yeah, there you go.
Drew Lissy
Give a. Stand up. All right. There it is. Yeah, very regal, very colonial. Regan, look at that. Yeah, they don't have gavels. All right. Love it. All right, Derek Care says Thomas Jefferson. No. Known for having. Known for having pet bears. God bless America.
Brent Tuckerton
You know who else has pet bears? Speaking of Travis, you know, the TK's former TL that came on and helped it, you know, verify along with two other teammates in Afghanistan, all of Tim's lies. He has pet bears out in his. Out in his house, and he feeds them every day. And they come up, they come and go. He sends me videos of them all the time, and I watch them. I know it's weird, but it's. I hope I Hope he lives.
Drew Lissy
All right, it's about the. It's about that time. Nine, a little after nine o' clock to do some commercials here. All right, so a little drink break and listen to our sponsors.
Brent Tuckerton
Let's do it. Let's get some hamburgers going. Hey guys, I want to introduce our latest sponsor, Brotherhood Blades. They're made for 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. Anti Hero 10 Seracote 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 Howe 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. Transition into civilian life with a purpose and support network.
Drew Lissy
We're back.
Brent Tuckerton
Real quick. We're back. All right. All right.
Drew Lissy
We emptied out. About to fill up again.
Brent Tuckerton
All right, Officer. Yeah, let's, let's, let's go to. Oh, speaking of Rangers. Speaking of Rangers, Drew, go to the Instagram account. The Very last one. Very last one I sent you. Last one. There you go. Yep.
Drew Lissy
Give me just a second.
Brent Tuckerton
Yep. Let me know when it's on, Tim.
Devin
Connecticut in there.
Drew Lissy
I believe. I believe it is on.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay, so Rob o' Neill tweeted this out today and then deleted it. Like the time he called out Red, the actual shooter of Osama bin Laden. He called out Red and was like, oh, you want me to talk about Red? I talk about Red. He goes to jail. And then he deleted that. I guess he doesn't want to piss off the guy who could really take him down. He did that just today and he says, so we're cool bashing combat veterans about awards, but say nothing about Rangers effing each other's wives. Got it at David Hookstead. I don't know why Rangers are catching astray from Rob o'. Neill. I don't know why. I don't know what David Hook said has to do about that. I know Dave is watching. Dave. If you understand that, please shine some. Shed some light on it. But it's just. That's how random. How random is that? Just Rob. Rob doing Rob things. Even on the 3rd of July. That man's. I'll give him this. That man celebrates like it's the fourth of July. It seems like almost every day.
Drew Lissy
But you know, to. To. To touch on what he's talking about there. What. What the community is doing isn't to hold them accountable about their personal lives.
Brent Tuckerton
It's true. Okay.
Drew Lissy
We're not worried about their personal lives. We're not worried about their personal finances. We're not worried whether their business is shady or not. It. The. The community is keeping the Special Forces community account combat and military arena, not their personal lives.
Brent Tuckerton
Let's. Let's.
Drew Lissy
Apples and oranges, o'. Neill.
Brent Tuckerton
And since we're talking about valor awards, in fact, let's. We'll stay on topic a little bit in case our listeners haven't seen this. Let's. Let's go back. I'll try to get you to the. To the right one. This. I believe it's the sticky Green Beret. He's been doing some work here lately. Right there. The ones the. Make sure that above it. Let's go. Let's see what this one is. To see what this one is part.
Doll Revere
Or a bronze star with a V device.
Brent Tuckerton
You sure about that?
Drew Lissy
Per the source I have here you. You have a bronze star with a V, is that correct?
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah.
Drew Lissy
You mind telling us about what happened there?
Brent Tuckerton
And how'd you got.
Drew Lissy
How you Got that pretty.
Doll Revere
Pretty straightforward, I think. So there was. There's a bad guy and bad guy was shooting at us and I shot him. I've never.
Brent Tuckerton
That's right. Drew reminded we did it last week. But you know what that one was worth? That one was worth sending twice. And it correlated with the. The valor awards. So I don't. Why are we concerned about vets lying about valor wards? I don't. That's pretty. How. How about that? Heck, let's. Let's. Let's go to that very top. Speaking of David Hook said, things just keep on connecting. Let's see what David Hook said posted on this one. Like, when you talk about your friend, I'm start crying.
Doll Revere
Like a grenade falls into a room. You're gonna be fighting to see who jumps on that grenade first. Like, those are the dudes that are in this. That the room with you, right? And you know, like, if one of them dies and we come back and this is where it gets your heart torn out, you know, like the. The mom or his wife is sitting there and they're like, you know, like, you.
Brent Tuckerton
You.
Doll Revere
You didn't know him. Like, I. Like this my husband, you know, I'm so sorry, ma', am, but you want to be like, bitch, you didn't know him. I sat there for 20 hours looking at a goddamn tree. You don't think we sit there and.
Drew Lissy
Talk for 20 fucking hours?
Brent Tuckerton
I can tell you what you sound.
Doll Revere
Like when you sleep, you know, I can tell you what you smell like. I can tell you your favorite pair of underwear.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, you know, like you want to.
Brent Tuckerton
Like you.
Drew Lissy
You don't know him.
Doll Revere
Yeah, that's how tight we are.
Brent Tuckerton
Like, when you talk about your friend. I'm gonna start. So Tim's taking a lot of heat from this one. This is a. This is a. A new one where he called. Where he basically in this made up story calls a gold star wife a. Which just is crazy to me. I've seen some. I've seen some comments and hey, I. I just call it like I see it. Some people really upset about that. And I understand why some people are like, well, it's just in context. Like he's basically like saying this, like what's in his mind. And like that's like, it's a little bit out of context. I. I actually kind of agree with that. It's in poor taste. Like he really shouldn't have done it. But is it. Is it as egregious as people want it to be? Brian.
Brian Y. Adams
I'll say it's yeah, I'll go with. It's egregious. It's a little disrespect for that, that teammates to say you didn't know him.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, that's.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, it's a little strong, a little harsh. Yeah. She knows him in a different way. Just like you know your mates in a different way. It. It's a lot of time. Yeah. You spend a lot of time with each other.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
Maybe more so with your mates. Well, during our time than you did at home. But you can't take away that from. And you can't. You just can't do that.
Brent Tuckerton
Can't throw the B word out to Gold star wise.
Brian Y. Adams
Especially when it's made.
Devin
Up unless they deserve it.
Drew Lissy
What did she do?
Devin
Like devil's advocate. I don't like it, but if you're telling me, like, where'd she touch you? What's going on here? But without that. No, that's completely ridiculous.
Brian Y. Adams
Why are you looking at a tree for 20 hours? That's what I want to know.
Brent Tuckerton
Gosh, if we're. This is. I don't want to tread in mucky waters here. Speaking of, like, holding up like men that weren't so good and then they die and all of a sudden they're saints. I'm Chris Kyle is beyond. Is a good example of that. You know, I, We. Who do we have on here? Eric, I believe, is Eric Deming was like, well, he beat his wife. So, like, he wasn't a very good man and he was a liar. And although that's a true statement. So. But people really went after him about that. It's like, oh, why would you bring that up? Like, he's dead now. I was like, well, just because you die, like, you could only be a saint. So. But under that same. Under that same guys of sorts, I said, you know, we can't make. Make guys who weren't good men all of a sudden, like, make them saints. But I've been to some funerals where they weren't. How do I say this right? He wasn't the biggest fan of his wife. And then, then everyone has to go there, you know, and act like, you know, that, you know, they were, they were great and, you know, and that she deserves. And I'm not saying she didn't, but I'm saying it gets a little awkward when like, you know, she deserves like, all this, this praise and, and sympathy when, like, he. They weren't good, you know. Yeah, but it's, but it's still his wife. I don't I bring that up? Not even necessarily making a point, just saying where it gets a little awkward. I'm not saying she doesn't deserve that, but it's just another. Those things. Like, when you go to the funerals, things start getting weird, you know, and that's. That's another one of those. One of those was an SAS guy, actually, and it was at least his girlfriend, but his girlfriend got, like, the rural treatment, but, like, he planned on coming back and breaking up with her, and so it was weird.
Devin
How much cooler would funerals be if everybody was just dead balls honest? Everybody was just like. He was kind of a dick, but. And they're like, yes. Like, the people that really knew the guy would be like, I appreciate that. Like, that reminds me.
Brent Tuckerton
That reminds me. There's a bunch of reasons why I love the sas. This is one of them. We're in the chapel at. Gosh, I hope. I hope the SAS doesn't think I like these. These aren't stories I should tell. We're at the sas, their chapel, at their compound, at a funeral. And at some point, it was planned, at some point, guys would just stand up and tell a story about them. But there were a lot of team room stories being told at a funeral with. With family and. And. And children and other people. And it didn't matter what the story was, if it was a funny story or if it was a good story, it was. And so when one guy would tell a story, Sit down, Another guy would tell his story. There are great stories, but I'm thinking, one, I love this. Two, I don't know if this is the place, but I love it. Who am I to tell them how to deal with this? I loved it. It was really cool, but it was odd to some degree, but I loved it.
Brian Y. Adams
Whether it's good or bad, that's. I think that's.
Brent Tuckerton
But that's who.
Brian Y. Adams
That's. The family needs.
Brent Tuckerton
To the point. To the point.
Devin
Oh, like, that should be more normalized. Sometimes you take it a little bit light, and I feel like that's a little bit more in their culture. Culture. Like the banter.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Devin
Honesty.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Again, like, depending on who the family was. His mom stuck around the Squadron bar and drank us all to sleep. So his mom was an amazing, amazing person when it comes to that.
Drew Lissy
Officer Dangle says to the boys, what are you choosing? Taco Tuesdays or Wings Wednesdays? I miss the omelets.
Brent Tuckerton
Damn it. I hate that question. Don't ask me that question on July 3rd when it's supposed to be all America. I'm going with taco Tuesday. But here's what I'm gonna say about that. Here's what I'm gonna say about that. I want American tacos. We took your Mexican plate, and we made it even better. Don't go down to Mexico, South America, order a taco and think you're gonna get an American taco. We got real beef in ours, just like pizza. We. We took your stuff and we made it better. So Taco Tuesday. But trust me, our tacos are as American as apple pie. Quote that. Like that. That was good.
Drew Lissy
Well played, doll.
Brent Tuckerton
Revere.
Devin
And what about it?
Drew Lissy
She's going for the wings.
Devin
I'm going for the.
Brent Tuckerton
I know.
Drew Lissy
She's a wings girl.
Brent Tuckerton
She's a wings girl.
Devin
Hot wings.
Brent Tuckerton
But you love tacos too.
Devin
Not as much as I love hot wings.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Devin
Not as much as I love hot wings.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay. Yeah. How much you like an oysters these days?
Devin
I don't want to talk about that.
Brent Tuckerton
You don't talk about the oyster incident. Okay.
Brian Y. Adams
Too late.
Devin
If anybody's from South Florida, you know Tarks. Tarx is the oldest, dingiest, but the best oyster and wings that you could probably find in Hollywood. Fort Lauderdale area. Never had a bad oyster there in my life. Shout out to them. For whatever reason. I had one bad oyster, and I knew it by looking at it. And that did not stay down for long. I was. But I'm gonna within five minutes. Yeah, Just right up. But then I rallied down and up, and then I got to enjoy my wings with a empty stomach, so I.
Drew Lissy
Don'T care for that.
Brent Tuckerton
I'm not an oyster guy. You like oysters?
Brian Y. Adams
I do.
Brent Tuckerton
Do you?
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah. I don't like steamed oysters.
Devin
I gotta go to Tarks.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't like the texture. It's a texture issue. It's like putting snot in your mouth.
Brian Y. Adams
Raw oysters. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Steam's. If I had the twos, I would go steam.
Brent Tuckerton
But let's go back to wings or.
Brian Y. Adams
For me, Taco Tuesday.
Brent Tuckerton
Taco Tuesday Tacos. America's apple pie these days.
Drew Lissy
Absolutely. The Cayman cider says.
Brent Tuckerton
The dick's Alpha Harambe.
Drew Lissy
There you go.
Brent Tuckerton
That was.
Drew Lissy
That's a reference on last week Dalton Fisher podcast.
Brent Tuckerton
Dalton Fisher, good to see you, brother.
Drew Lissy
Wow, this decor is epic. Brent, I hope you put a towel down on Devin's chair before putting. Putting that outfit on, buddy. Happy fourth, boys.
Devin
That's why we did the commercial. We had to do a wipe down really quick. Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
You know, I've said before but he's in. He's in. He's in the chat. I. I don't get tired of saying it. I don't. I haven't done a podcast like, truly about myself since the Dalton Fisher Podcast. It's. I don't really necessarily see a reason to do it because Dalton did such a good job of asking great questions, portraying my story. If anyone wants to truly hear my story, go to the Dalton Fisher Podcast. It's two episodes, like, four hours, but that. That is where you'll see my full story. Thank you, Dalton, for doing that.
Drew Lissy
Casey Smith says y' all look like you're going to a diddy party after this. Brent is bringing cigars.
Brent Tuckerton
What current events. Let's talk about it. You tracking the Diddy stuff?
Brian Y. Adams
Yes, a little bit.
Drew Lissy
A little diddy.
Brent Tuckerton
I. There's a part of me that actually wants to get a little bit more, like, look further into this to see what, like, the real. I knew what the, like, the allegations were. Like, one was with. I just had the word. What were the two big ones you got off on? Not money. Laundry. Racketeering.
Brian Y. Adams
Racketeering.
Brent Tuckerton
Racketeering and sex trafficking. You got off on those, I want to say. Did he? He definitely did he off of those. Oh, gosh. I want to say if those prosecutors brought, like, brought that to trial, they must have had something that. To take someone of that name, that famous and really and, you know, and put the screws to them. They must have thought they had a. A good case like you. You agree with that, that line of thinking? Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
I mean, you're raiding their house. You have some pretty damning evidence.
Brent Tuckerton
It's a little crazy. He got off on those, but there it is again. But the. I. I wonder what you talked about, that. What he did get hit for and how. There's no real, like, standard sentence for that.
Brian Y. Adams
Right.
Brent Tuckerton
So what do you get hemmed up for at the end of the day?
Brian Y. Adams
What was it? Transportation of prostitution or for prostitution. Prostitutes.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Brian Y. Adams
I don't know what the difference is.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
Between that and trafficking, but. So he could.
Brent Tuckerton
He could.
Brian Y. Adams
He could walk away with time served.
Brent Tuckerton
I know. I don't know. I mean, it's just crazy.
Brian Y. Adams
How much money does it take to.
Brent Tuckerton
Well, they still didn't let him out on bond. They tried to, you know, say, hey, well, let's. Let's now because, you know, it's down to this. Let's give him bond. The judge's like, nah, he didn't get bond before. He's not getting bond now, so. Or you know to, to bail out. So we'll see, we'll see how that, how that works out. I know it's weird. At the end of the day, I only want the truth, you know, I mean, so if you didn't do it, he didn't do it. But there's a part of me I know this is weird. Without knowing more, I was kind of hoping. I was kind of hoping for it. I'm just, I'm just telling you. Which is weird to want that on someone you don't really know and on charges you don't really know. We've heard enough stories. He better not get a slap on the wrist. If everything he did is, is true, for him to get a slap in the wrist just reeks of ojness.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, I, I, it's hard to tell. Yeah, it's like I, I'm, I'm anxious.
Brent Tuckerton
To see some, some black privilege that.
Brian Y. Adams
I followed it very closely, but it's, it's, it's interesting. There's, what is it gonna get away.
Brent Tuckerton
With there, There's a term that maybe needs, you know, white privilege. It just, it irks me. Maybe let's, let's turn black privilege into a thing.
Brian Y. Adams
Our thing is just, it's, it's all right. Net worth privilege.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, you know, that's, that, that's not.
Brian Y. Adams
That'S, that's everything comes down to money.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Maybe Net worth privilege. All right, what do we got?
Drew Lissy
Well, so a super chat. YouTube wasn't letting it go through, so they, they messaged Vanessa. It's at red 40. Says any chance of Benjamin Tuckerton performing CQB, armed with a musket, flintlock and wooden teeth, just like Gregory Washington did in 1776.
Brent Tuckerton
Yes.
Brian Y. Adams
It's all the right price.
Brent Tuckerton
There's, there's always a chance. Yeah. AI could do it.
Drew Lissy
And depending on the right Armageddon conditions, who knows, into the world stuff, maybe all will be left.
Brent Tuckerton
Could you imagine? Got me thinking, and it's great having another Delta Force guy here to, to. Could you imagine? Because they, they would have had to, they would have had to clear houses. Obviously at some point. You got a musket, you're clearing houses, you get one shot. I hope there's not someone else in that house because you got to sit there and reload that musket to go to the next room.
Drew Lissy
Give him that bayonet.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
And I, I think that, you know, the year your, your oppositions carrying the same, same thing, so. Oh, that's, I'm rolling in there with the hatchet. Sorry. Whatever. I'm just going fast.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay. All right.
Devin
My own heart.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, man. Two hatchets. One to throw, one to close with. And once you get there, you get to reload your hatchet.
Brian Y. Adams
You get.
Brent Tuckerton
You get a second one back, Brian. That's why you get the invite, buddy.
Brian Y. Adams
Hey.
Brent Tuckerton
That's why you're here.
Brian Y. Adams
You know, just trying to war game it.
Brent Tuckerton
All right.
Brian Y. Adams
Green going in with speed. Speed.
Brent Tuckerton
I know. Screams patriot. I know there's some foreshadowing there. Yeah.
Drew Lissy
Valhalla v. FT.
Brent Tuckerton
Nate, don't you screw this up.
Drew Lissy
Shout to Tim Kennedy and rob Tim Kennedy o' Neill for having real silver stars. They could produce the ultimate grifter butt baby. More impressive than the third Trent's two Dads made.
Brent Tuckerton
All right, hey, let's go back to the Instagram. Just real quick. Nate actually broke this, but it's something I want to bring up. I know we have a lot of crossover in our listeners. Drew up. Bring that up. So Nate brought up that Tim. The. The Tim Kennedy website was down, and it was. And it was part of the reason it was down, because Black Rifle has been pretty. Now, I want to say, because I'm. I'm friends with those guys and I understand their reasoning, and just. Just because they do business, the way that they do business isn't the way I would do business. I understand that. So I try to get off my. My high horse. They've been fairly quiet about this whole Tim Kennedy stuff, but they. But it doesn't mean that they've been inactive about it. So they. They dropped Tim Kennedy. Like. Like almost everyone with integrity has. And Tim Kennedy still had the has on his website. Has, like all of his sponsors. And if you go to it, most of those sponsors have dropped him, but he still has it on his website because he doesn't. He just doesn't want to eat that. That humble pie, you know? So Black Rifle is like, hey, take. Take our logo down. Like, we're not affiliated with you until you can clear up these valor allegations. Until, you know, until you can prove yourself that you were right, because there's been an overwhelming amount of evidence. So there's the email Mike, which is the person that they believed worked was in control of the Tim website. Hope all is well. There's some video you may be aware of that's problematic regarding Tim, including contradictory statements regarding a video device on his Brawn Star, which we've. We played last week and we played it this week. Until that gets resolved, we would ask that you please have BRCC removed from Tim's website. If you're the right person for this, please feel free to point me to. And as of yesterday or to maybe it was today it's back up and he has. And he has not removed BRCC from there. So again, he could have done the right thing, but he doesn't want to lose face and he's probably going to face some legal action from it. I reached out to USCCA as well who's still on his website for comment. They have not. They have not written me back but I will keep bugging them until I get a comment from USCCA as well. No one bought that his website. Even though he took it down. I don't think it was. I mean like let's like one. I've bought several websites. Usually I. Because they're fairly cheap. Especially if. If they're. If they're not of like high demand like NBA dot com. He probably owns the domain for. For three years or multiple years. So just because you take it down doesn't mean you lose the rights to it.
Drew Lissy
So Teddy Broosevelt says American fact. The US once tried to use bats carrying bombs during World War II. It was called Project X Ray. It didn't go well.
Devin
Why not? What could have possibly gone wrong with that?
Drew Lissy
I mean, bats are pretty small. How can they carry a bomb? Essentially the bomb the size in World War II.
Devin
I have so many questions.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, there's. All right.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't think a bat could carry a grenade.
Drew Lissy
What is it Sounds like a bad idea.
Brent Tuckerton
And here's. They're nocturnal. They're only gonna drop at night.
Drew Lissy
Well, that's like stealth bombers.
Brent Tuckerton
The original stealth bomber with radar.
Devin
My dumb blonde ass is thinking baseball bats.
Drew Lissy
Oh, that's okay.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you. Thank you for. You didn't have to do that. Thank you.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, that was very humbling. They actually admit it out loud. But a lot of people got some laughs.
Brent Tuckerton
Well, at least. At least.
Devin
Am I the only one?
Brian Y. Adams
Baseball bats might have worked better.
Devin
I was like, that's not that far off.
Brent Tuckerton
At least your dumb comments stay inside and you choose to release them with your mouth to where I. I just say them out loud and have to have to deal with it later.
Drew Lissy
All right, let's see. Evil Abe Lincoln. There's a clear difference between a zip and crack of a round going by your head versus a firecracker going back to the 4th. You know, PTSD and fireworks. I know 100 Casey Smith. TK is a sponsor for we the People holsters. They are what gun Influencer chicks wear.
Devin
I have one. I'm just kidding.
Drew Lissy
Caleb. Bhutan. 50 bucks missed last week's, but here's the beer money, baby. Sure is, man. Thank you so much.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you, Caleb. And you know what? And that's why we play. Even though it was a mistake, the video twice he missed last week. So now we got to see the hard evidence of tk, who said he never claimed to have a valor ward, by the way. I don't want to be. I don't want to be petty about it, but this is just for a second. Put yourself in my shoes. I went on a limb, and I said all I knew I was right. But I said all this about a guy. A guy who's way bigger and way more influential than I will ever be, if we're being honest. And then instead of saying, you caught me, you were right. What did he do? He turned around in his rebuttal, and he said, I don't like saying this word, but I'm quoting him. Fuck you. Fuck you. That's what he told me about the things I said about him, only to find out everything I said was true. What? What. What a world I hate. What a disgrace would George Washington do?
Drew Lissy
Good question. Dahl.
Brent Tuckerton
Revere. No, I'm telling you that. That does. Like that. That. That bothers me, you know, a little bit. Instead of using your influence to show that, hey, let's do the right thing. You got called out. The guy who called you out was absolutely right, and then you did everything in your power to demonize him, only to find out he was right the whole time. Like, what a childish thing to do. What an improper thing to do. I don't think I'm gonna get my apology, but I deserve. But I'm a good deed. No good deed.
Drew Lissy
Ship him back to the motherland. TBD. 10 bucks. Question for everyone. You wake up tomorrow. What's the first song you play? And do you have Shower Beer?
Brent Tuckerton
The old shower beer. Oh. What's the first song you play? I'm trying to think.
Devin
Maybe Real American.
Brent Tuckerton
What are you doing?
Devin
Real American blasting first thing in the morning. Yeah, and that's gonna be my first beer.
Brent Tuckerton
The Hulk Hogan intro song.
Devin
Yes. And I'm gonna. I'm gonna bypass my. My Morning monster with a beer, and then I'm gonna have my shower beer.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Devin
But yes, Real American. I'm waking up loud and proud tomorrow. Sending it.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay, I'mma. I'm gonna follow that up with James Brown Living in America.
Devin
We're gonna do that tonight.
Brent Tuckerton
And by the looks of it. I know. I already had 150. Yeah. And I want to start tomorrow the same way I ended tonight.
Devin
Shots of whiskey.
Brent Tuckerton
That's right, Brian.
Brian Y. Adams
Ah, for me, that. It's just my. It's the. The theme song. It's.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, by the way, that's assuming I'm gonna wake up in the morning. I'm. I'm. If. If. If I wake up afternoon, that's. I'm splitting hairs here, but go ahead.
Brian Y. Adams
All right. Whatever time you wake up, you should be. You should be cranking whatever your theme music is. Mine's I Want to Be a Baller by T. Roy.
Devin
Even on the 4th of July.
Brian Y. Adams
Even on the 4th of July.
Brent Tuckerton
He's a consistent man, and I appreciate that.
Devin
You are a baller. You made it.
Brian Y. Adams
I've got my American suit on.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't want to do that.
Drew Lissy
Let's see. Brandon Campbell says I had fireworks shot at me during the George Floyd riots in Fayetteville. Can I judge those jokers?
Brent Tuckerton
Well, I hope every Fourth of July that you don't have PTSD and that you don't cower over it. You don't let it affect the rest of your life. Assuming. Let's just assume you're, like, you're 35. Let's hope that 34 years of good July 4th memories isn't tainted by one true. That's tongue in cheek. I know. I know. He'll be okay on the 4th.
Drew Lissy
And that's why you cannot tell a lie.
Brent Tuckerton
I cannot. Oh, I'm not. I'm. Well, yeah, I can. I try not to, though, publicly. George Washington.
Drew Lissy
Well, the country gets any more divided on some of these. These issues and these riots, these peaceful protests.
Brent Tuckerton
Peaceful protests?
Drew Lissy
Yeah. Be thankful they're just shooting fireworks at you. So if it gets worse, it's gonna be something else. TK's tiny peen back in. I fought in Tora Bora for your right set off M80s.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you for that. You're a true patriot. I'm upset that you let those helicopters come in and get bin Laden according to the sheriff of And. And whisk him out of there, but thank you for your service anyway.
Drew Lissy
Kate Bearden says the only thing that can save TK reputation is to come out. Admit he's red in the ubo.
Brent Tuckerton
Yes.
Drew Lissy
All right. Beach says take some Kiwi dollars and happy birthday, America.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, man.
Devin
Thank you times two.
Drew Lissy
Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you.
Drew Lissy
Thank you. Nz. What? What? What?
Brent Tuckerton
New Zealand.
Drew Lissy
Oh, New Zealand.
Brent Tuckerton
I believe that's why I said New Zealand dollars.
Devin
Kiwi.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, Kiwi My brain translate. Translated it.
Drew Lissy
It's better than the Old Zealand dollars. Don't. Hightower says don't let the fob bets.
Brent Tuckerton
The fobbits.
Drew Lissy
The fobbits?
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Drew Lissy
What's a fobbit?
Brent Tuckerton
People who stayed on the fob and never went outside the wire.
Drew Lissy
That's it. Get to you, Brent Tucker Carson. Just imagine live fire with tracers, mortars, star clusters, Bangladesh bangladers in a HOA Rich environment. Happy Independence Day.
Brent Tuckerton
Rich environment.
Drew Lissy
I do know those letters.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't ever want to live in an HOA again for the rest of my life. They're necessary evil. At some point when you have kids and you know you want to be around other people. I don't want to live in an HOA for the rest of my life. They can foreclose on your house. It's crazy. That is crazy. They are. They're the. They're.
Drew Lissy
They're the current British TK's tiny peen back in. My favorite cigar is the one I carry and season in my prison warrant.
Brent Tuckerton
All right. I believe it's a darker brown than it was original originally.
Drew Lissy
Zulu whiskey. What's up, boys? Tell Tyler we miss him. Brent, you know jay whitaker. He's sf. Made in america by toby keith outro. 20 bucks for main America.
Brent Tuckerton
No, I don't know Jay Whitaker, but Made in America. Toby Keith. 20 bucks.
Drew Lissy
JSK on patrol out here in Washington. I swear I'm busting drugs and warrants. DVS in the cvs.
Brent Tuckerton
Domestic violence in the.
Drew Lissy
In the cities. Not just slaying tickets. Five years prior as a city cop. Troopers lives matter, man.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you, sir. Thank you for your service.
Drew Lissy
Cleveland. Dad, Hating the government and hating the country is two different things.
Brent Tuckerton
I agree with that.
Drew Lissy
Please don't confuse us with lefties. Happy for it.
Brent Tuckerton
I agree with that. That's absolutely true. And I believe that's about as. As founding father mentality as you can get.
Drew Lissy
Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
Really? Why you laughing at that? That was. That was those.
Devin
I thought we adopted pounding fathers.
Brent Tuckerton
We did not adopt pounding father.
Devin
I'm gonna make it a thing.
Drew Lissy
Just real quick. Do we have any more fun facts from.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, thank you.
Devin
We have so many. All right. You want a couple?
Drew Lissy
Yeah.
Devin
I saw one coming through for George Washington, so I don't want to blow that one yet. But Ben Franklin.
Brent Tuckerton
Whoa.
Devin
Once wrote an essay titled Fart Proudly. It was a real scientific style paper suggesting flatulence should be encouraged and deodorized through science. He sent it to the Royal Academy in London, and they were not Amused. Fun fact. You want another one?
Drew Lissy
Pull my finger. Mr. Franklin.
Devin
George Washington's dentures weren't wood. But they were nightmare fuel. They were made from human teeth. Cow teeth and ivory. Like Frankenstein's. Frankenstein's grill. He also glued them in with lead. Dental hygiene in the 1700s was a horror show.
Drew Lissy
How do you put those three together? What was it? Name those again.
Devin
Human teeth. Cow teeth and ivory.
Brent Tuckerton
And this was some of the flak he got. I believe the human teeth were. Were from slaves. He had them pulled. Someone. I don't.
Drew Lissy
But were they alive? They could have been cadavers.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't want to be wrong on that. So someone please check me. Because I don't. I've heard it too. What? Just because we heard it doesn't make it right. But I've been to Mount Vernon a couple times. Mount Vernon is a cool place. Super cool place. And I believe I learned that there. Oh. And I believe I learned it on the Shane Gillis. Talking about that. And Shane as a comedian. He knows his history.
Devin
He loves his history.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. He's a smart man. I love how he's a funny man.
Drew Lissy
Bravo. Whiskey says Brant. Dull brain. I like the look tonight. Shooter Jennings. Fourth of July for song.
Brent Tuckerton
That's a good one. I used to have that on my Fourth of July list before my music got long story. Anyway. Thank you for reminding me that song.
Drew Lissy
TK's Tiny Peen says too many girls on this panel. I like it. All men. Rainbows.
Devin
You don't know what I'm packing.
Drew Lissy
Don't assume her gender.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Yeah. You saw her put a different they.
Drew Lissy
Their gender. All right. Steven Eric Hooley says Brendan Taylor. Love everything you're doing. You should try to get Roger Sparks for an episode. Silver Star. PJ and Bulldog Bite. Also. Do we think Tyler always sits to pee?
Brent Tuckerton
I do not believe Tyler sits the pee at all. No.
Drew Lissy
All right. Roger Sparks. Who's the fake Nikki Glazer? Tuna boy.
Devin
Nikki wishes that she were.
Brent Tuckerton
Me.
Devin
Ask her.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh. Nikki. No. That was. That was a good one. Nikki Glazer.
Devin
I'll take it.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Drew Lissy
Teddy Roosevelt. Back in. Any love for the Coast Guard from the antihero podcast?
Brent Tuckerton
Absolutely. They have a sniper section that does boat interdictions. That's legit. They do a cool job. They do a bunch of cool training. They do a bunch of real world. Real world stuff. You know? Shooting boats from a helicopter. What's cooler than that? Right? And their vehicle. Their vbs. Their vessel boarding is. Is legit. I don't. I have no qualms with the Coast Guard, but they're not the military anymore.
Drew Lissy
Zulu Whiskey.
Brent Tuckerton
You know they're not in the military.
Brian Y. Adams
They can dual hat. Correct. I've heard that from everybody that you. Because they can switch. Whether it's, you know, they could. They can switch over and. And run a law enforcement role as well.
Brent Tuckerton
Interesting.
Brian Y. Adams
And shout out to Kaden. My oldest is a reservist Coast Guard, so. Coast Guard shout out.
Brent Tuckerton
Nice. Yeah. Look at that.
Drew Lissy
Heck, yeah. Zulu Whiskey. If time travel is real, would you rather fight in the Revolutionary War in the past or the Revolutionary War 2.0 that is bound to happen in the future.
Brent Tuckerton
Future all day long. I am not lining up in a field of battle to trade rounds with the enemy. Just not doing it. Not doing.
Brian Y. Adams
But no one time travel to crush them.
Devin
Oh, can we take our with us.
Brian Y. Adams
Back and crush them?
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, I thought.
Drew Lissy
I thought you can only go back in time and show up naked like Terminator, so I don't know if you can take it with you.
Brian Y. Adams
There's your shock.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Yeah. Well, I hope time travel isn't cold.
Drew Lissy
Unless you can bring, you know, your. Your gun and a DeLorean, then. You got that. Everything you can pack in a DeLorean.
Brent Tuckerton
Gonna have to bring a lot of rounds. But if you think about that, bring your own gun. You're gonna have to bring so many rounds, though, because you can't resupply.
Drew Lissy
Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
Anyway. Yeah.
Drew Lissy
Guns are only.
Brent Tuckerton
So I'm still. I'm still going future even. Even if I could bring my gun, I. I couldn't carry enough rounds to do all the work.
Devin
Can you imagine history books if you went back in time, came with a carry on bag, and you just lit people up. They'd be like. There was this one catalyst that came and obliterated people with this futuristic. You'd be a legend.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, for the rest of time and.
Drew Lissy
Call you a war angel from heaven.
Brent Tuckerton
That's pretty much death angel. Yeah. You really would. Oh, that changes things a little bit. I think I do want to be remembered.
Brian Y. Adams
I think you'd be hunted down, killed.
Brent Tuckerton
That's true. At some point. Overwhelming numbers are overwhelming numbers.
Brian Y. Adams
You're the outsider there, Joe.
Drew Lissy
Mama says. Happy fourth, boys. Bent. Did you serve with Phil Coochie?
Brent Tuckerton
I think that's a joke.
Drew Lissy
I'm pretty sure it is. Mr. Weebles en route to Dallas from Nashville this eve. Happy 4th of July weekend. Thank you for your service, Brent, and thanks for keeping the streets safe, Tyler.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you. Where's Choose Fun Cities back to back. You'll have a good time.
Drew Lissy
Thank you. Jays for 20 bucks. Appreciate the love, man. Sean Nolan says wins a new FRC cigar coming out. Gotta fill the FRCC humidor.
Brent Tuckerton
Me and Drew are in a current argument about that. Give it, give it some time. We'll see who wins. Drew usually gets what he wants, especially.
Drew Lissy
On the 4th of July. And I want it to be an.
Brent Tuckerton
American tobacco, but here's a little bit of effort when I say Drew gets what he wants. Drew.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, buddy?
Brent Tuckerton
Did the Delta. Came out early because you wanted it. Do you remember that? You said, I want a third cigar. Need it.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, that's right. Wrap.
Brent Tuckerton
That's right.
Drew Lissy
Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
The Charlie. Our Connecticut. We got that because you wanted it.
Drew Lissy
Yep.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Yep. Yeah. Drew's got some pool for a CC you guys don't know about. Oh, yeah.
Devin
Drew gets what Drew wants.
Brent Tuckerton
Drew gets what Drew wants. And it's never, and it's never in a demanding fashion. He just.
Drew Lissy
It's only because Brent's easy. Ask Devin. All right. Tom Lennon. Rob o' Neal was on Tucker Carlson. Dab.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't know.
Drew Lissy
Just did a vid.
Brent Tuckerton
Yes, Rob o' Neal was on Tucker Carlson. There are a couple. We'll, we'll get on again. When I do an episode solely on something, it's me. It means it is vetted. And, and I know I'll do a couple opinions because I haven't dual sourced this, but you know, he talks about Cairo the dog getting ex filled in a, in a hot firefight with a chest wound. An operator putting like shaving his chest with a knife and putting a chest seal on it. I asked about that. One person replied, this happened fairly like this afternoon. Who was, who worked with him. Same squadron would have done the same things with him. Said, I do not remember that happening at all. There's another story he tells in that where they're, they're driving in the van before the ubl. They just got kind of notified. There's this big mission. And Rob o', Neill, who's the smartest guy in the van, goes, it's not Gaddafi. I, I think it's, it's, it's ubl. That's who it is. And the driver looks back and goes, if we go, if we're going on the UBL raid and if we kill ubl, I'll suck your dick. And he says, three weeks later to the day, we're standing over his dead body. I look at the guy and go, well, now's as good as time as any. Talking about the, the Fallacious joke made earlier. I asked about that one too, and no one recalls that ever happening. So usually if it's good, funny little story that, that Rob like interjects, it's usually fake because he likes to throw some humor into his lies because he, because he's. Because he's a good storyteller. You can say a lot about Rob. He's a good storyteller, but he's a liar. So it's unfortunate.
Drew Lissy
Les Hurtling says if Dahl Revere worked for Paul, I understand why Johnny Tremaine injured his hand and it wasn't from pouring silver on Sunday.
Brent Tuckerton
Chat.
Drew Lissy
It's a deep history joke.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Devin
What's the real answer then? If that's the fact, if it's not from pouring silver, I'm gonna hear what the best answer is.
Drew Lissy
Oh, she wants you to say it.
Brent Tuckerton
Yes, she wants you to say.
Devin
I want to hear it. I want to hear what the ideas are.
Brent Tuckerton
Can you back up just real quick to that? Can someone tell me this? Can you tell me the story of Johnny Tremaine injuring his hand?
Devin
He's a fictional character. Young silversmith, apprentice.
Brent Tuckerton
He's a fictional character.
Devin
Yes.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Devin
Set in the 1770s before the American Revolution. But if it's not from that, what's it from?
Drew Lissy
Yeah, humor me.
Brent Tuckerton
Good question.
Drew Lissy
What's on your mind? Every day, everyday American says SAS is notorious for not letting anyone tell stories. But you're American, so send it.
Brent Tuckerton
It is true and as we do and I don't think that's a bad thing. I'm. I'm even a little torn about that. They are very tight lipped and I think it's a good thing. However, the precedent has always has already been set. And so I do what I want, but I actually think that's a good thing.
Drew Lissy
Marcus Stryker. 50 bucks. Thank you. Marcus says. Nice talking with you, Drew. We talked today on the phone. I contacted several distributors in Las Vegas area, Northern Nevada and Idaho talking about the new FRCC bourbon coming out.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh man, thank you.
Drew Lissy
Hopefully they hit you guys up. Thank you, Marcus. He's doing some great trooper work up there, man.
Brent Tuckerton
I wanted the bourbon out for the 4th of July so bad. So bad. And it. And it would have been close, but it should have been released by now, I believe that depends on maybe some shipping dates and how fast. But the labels got cut wrong and it on our label the like the eagle wing is kind of has. Is cut out from the label and the die cut they use like cut off half the wing and so. And they shipped it out. So the bottling company was like, hey, this label isn't right. Had to ship the labels back to the label making company and it delayed our release. So we should get a release and I should. Two weeks or less. That's what I'm really hoping for. I cannot wait to get that in hand. I don't think people realize the if. I really wish people would get behind abolishing the ATF because the. The rules on alcohol distribution is ridiculous. It's absolutely ridiculous. Ridiculous. So they make it very hard. So if I can ever get one of those bottles in my hand and be like, I actually got this across the finish line, that'll be one of the greatest accomplishments in my life at this point.
Devin
Can me and Brian have hand signed bottles?
Brent Tuckerton
Hand signed bottles by you?
Drew Lissy
Yes.
Devin
And Vanessa wants one. I want a hand signed bottle.
Brent Tuckerton
I tell you this, this is what we're going to put on the website is we're going to put the first hundred that come off the line are gonna be hand side hand signed bottles. You'll be able to pick that. And then the rest that don't care about my signature and they just want 7 year old really good bourbon. They can have that option too.
Drew Lissy
Just curious, do we have a Patreon giveaway this week?
Brent Tuckerton
Vanessa?
Devin
Yes, we do.
Brent Tuckerton
What is it?
Drew Lissy
You want to work on it later?
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Drew Lissy
All right, we'll announce it later.

Devin
We were playing black ops Nazi zombies for quite some time.
Drew Lissy
Oh, yeah, we were.
Devin
Yeah. We put a hurt.
Brent Tuckerton
You know how embarrassing it is to have your girlfriend have to keep on coming and reviving you and telling you where to go and stand? It's not. It's not. Video games aren't fair. That's funny. They're just not fair.
Drew Lissy
All right, look, I know there's some guys in the chat. Some of your. Your super chats have fallen off.
Brent Tuckerton
We.
Drew Lissy
We've learned over the year this. The episodes that I guess the more money you give, the longer it stays on, and so if it's not a lot of money, it goes away. So if we have a lot of super chats, some of this stuff, you know, we miss, and the system doesn't keep them up there the whole time. So sorry, but we do the best we can. Sun Wukong says best.
Brent Tuckerton
Hold on. I'm sorry to interrupt you. I had a missed phone call from Tyler. Tyler, you're on the air. Hey, what's up? Yeah, so the Patreon winner. You guys ready? Oh, well, we just. We just. We were unaware, so we put it out how to do it. We said the first Patreon person to email us would. Would win the hoodie. Okay. And then do the other one. What's the other one? What do you want the other one for a. For an elevated silence camp. Oh, for an elevated silence camp. Can. A suppressor.
Drew Lissy
So the emails for the hoodie.
Brent Tuckerton
Our emails for the hoodie. What do you want to do? What do you want to do with the suppressor? Way to make. Way to make our hoodie look cheap. I was trying to call both you guys. That's all right. Yeah. So Corey Keel is the winner of the elevated silence. Oh, Corey Keel. All right. And you're. You're. He already knows the winner of it. Is he a friend of yours? Is that how you know who the winner is? I did the random number draw. It looks like. It looks like the winner for your Patreon giveaway is Sean Dixon. Oh, but we just said we're gonna do the email thing, so if Sean hears that, he's gonna be upset.
Drew Lissy
No, no, no.
Brent Tuckerton
Sean was the first one to email. Oh, the. Oh. Oh, you already checked the email. Perfect.
Drew Lissy
Okay, okay.

Brian Y. Adams
Man, you guys are doing awesome.

We can do it, Tyler. I will do it again next week. Fourth of July is a week long celebration, brother.
Devin

Drew Lissy
Sutton Wukong says, best decorations ever. Dudes and dudette. Happy Independence Day and America Month. Simper pie. Simper fry. Simper fi.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Drew Lissy
Okay.
Brent Tuckerton
All right. Playing with it.
Drew Lissy
I wasn't sure if I was supposed to read that. That way. It's like zipper. All right. Ken says D's out for Harambe. Taints out for the front.
Brent Tuckerton
Tucker. Oh, don't make that a thing.
Drew Lissy
Sun Wukong. Frago. What?
Brent Tuckerton
Frago.
Drew Lissy
Frago. All right, what's the Confederate uniform? Brent? I grew up in Richmond, Virginia, and those need to be a deeper blue.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, we talked about that before. Thinking about how history could change. Like, what if the south won? Like, what a crazy. Well, maybe not. Like, how much different would this country look if the south won? What? Would it look that much different? Would. Would it. Would it be better? Would it be worse? I mean, there's a good question. It's. It's a damn good question.
Drew Lissy
Probably be worse for a certain group of people. For sure.
Brent Tuckerton
Possibly.
Drew Lissy
Possibly. Still a lot of people moving for. For abolishing slavery. A lot of people were moving.
Brent Tuckerton
Exactly. But we don't know. They may have extended it. But it would stay there. Yeah, it was not going to stay there, but it just. It would have been interesting. That's for sure.
Drew Lissy
Michael Platt, Happy 4th. Enjoying a tall glass of Dickens. Dickens Cider.
Brent Tuckerton
Sure. I don't know how tall your glass is, but okay.
Drew Lissy
LeBron. It's a small class. LeBron. LA Day. I don't know, Ben.
Devin
I'm getting Benihana.
Drew Lissy
Benihana.
Devin
Bro.
Drew Lissy
Bro, you're looking like bin Laden coming out the cave. Lol. Much love, brother. Little something for a few shots.
Brent Tuckerton
I hate to say the more they keep saying that, the more I'm seeing it. The. The wig looks a little more like a white turban. Yeah. And it's looking like a long, white Bin Laden type beard, so. Which. Another. Fun facts. If you're getting Fun facts. When Rob o' Neill talks about how white his beard is, that's a lie, which we went over in the podcast. It's a fact that he had dyed his beard a dark black. You can even see the Just for Men hair dye in the 60 minute video when they. They go through his. His bedroom. So just another fun fact of little small piece. All these small pieces. That's. That's one of the. I mean, the bigger pieces is all of his teammates saying that he's a liar. But there's a lot of other things since you don't know SEAL Team six guys and I do not a flex that you can. You can still get. Get to the answer.
Drew Lissy
T Bone 66 13. $200. Thank you very much for the love movie trivia. What American Classic said George Toque weed. He grew fields of it. And behind every man is a good woman. And Martha Washington had a bowl for George every day. My vote for outro song is the good version of Johnny Cash. That ragged old.
Brent Tuckerton
That ragged old flat.

Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, that. That's a good song. One. Obviously a good wife.
Brent Tuckerton
Obviously a good wife. You've. You. You've been known to. To. To dabble in the reefer.
Brian Y. Adams
I. I would. Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
Can I say that? Can I not say that? That's a question. I shouldn't make that as a statement.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, that was an understatement.
Brent Tuckerton
But. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
Okay. Nothing wrong with it. It's.
Brent Tuckerton
You prefer it over alcohol?
Brian Y. Adams
100.
Brent Tuckerton
No. No calories, no hangover.
Brian Y. Adams
It's just nothing but good. That's why I'd say leave.
Brent Tuckerton
You know more about this because. Because I don't. That's not me. Like, again, I say it all the time. Like, I kind of wish it did. If they legalize it, maybe I'd think about it. But can. Does anyone take. Has anyone made one that takes the horrible smell out of weed? So one thing I. I love the smell of cigar. I hate. I hate the smell of weed. I just do. All right. As you know, 1. Has no one fixed that problem? Does no one care about that problem? Edibles.
Brian Y. Adams
Okay, there's your answer.
Brent Tuckerton
All right. Okay.
Drew Lissy
What American Classic said George took wheat.
Brian Y. Adams
All of them.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't know.
Drew Lissy
Daisy, let us know. Film Dazed and Confused, 1993.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, probably. Yeah. Yeah, probably. Doll Revere. What? How are we looking at. Let's get an update on the. On the song list so Sever knows where we're right now.
Devin
Johnny Cash, Ragged old flags at 200, followed by living in America by James Brown for 150.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay. On. It's on its coattails, if you will.
Drew Lissy
What color are those coattails?
Brian Y. Adams
Definitely appeals to today.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
If we. If we listen to it.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay. I feel like almost making a rule that anytime a song goes over a hundred bucks, it will. It will also get played. But we gotta.
Devin
I like that at least you like tonight.
Brent Tuckerton
Especially for tonight.
Devin
Tonight.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Drew Lissy
Especially.
Brent Tuckerton
All right.
Drew Lissy
Micah. Micah says Paul Revere's grandson, Paul Joseph Revere served with the 20th Massachusetts during the Civil War, was wounded at the battle of Gettysburg and died of his wounds two days later on 7-4-63.
Brent Tuckerton
Dang. There's a good history fun fact. Those are the history fun facts we all signed up for.
Drew Lissy
That's right. Thank you, guys. Evan J. Says Revolutionary War fact. That's what we're here for. The first documented counter espionage done was by Robert Rogers. Capturing Nathaniel Hale. Happy 4th Airborne all the way.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, hell no.
Drew Lissy
Why so crazy?
Brent Tuckerton
He was so crazy.
Drew Lissy
Jay Fredericks. Now I have to get rid of my we the People holster.
Brent Tuckerton
Did we meet that guy in. In Las Vegas? Someone. I thought someone. Oh, yeah, that's right. That was another one. Yeah. And I think he had a deal originally and then. And with tk. What holster company is that speaking to? The Mic magnet A. Okay.
Brian Y. Adams
Holsters.
Brent Tuckerton
Yep. And then that. That went bad because TK was doing some TK things and they separated ways. Yeah.
Drew Lissy
Okay, Mr. Bubbles, if it is confirmed stolen valor from.
Brent Tuckerton
No, if it is, it is confirmed. Don't say that. We've played it twice now. Sorry. Keep going.
Drew Lissy
Does it say more about him as a person or the SF community allowing him to be part of it? Could it be said that the community knew the type of person he was from the beginning?
Brent Tuckerton
So I can tell you the community knew the type of person he was from the beginning because my good buddy Mikey v was an 18 Bravo Q course instructor of his and tried really, really hard to get him kicked out of the Q course. So people knew right from the get go and then. But that it does, I hate to say, does say a lot about the SF community. It. No. Gosh. Now I got to take that back. Give me a second. Let me. It doesn't. Because the SF community can't stand them. I mean, the. The cute. The. The guy just said he's an 18 Bravo. They are making fun of him in selection. He's. He's hated in the Q course. I know for a fact right now there's a petition going throughout the groups of them one day signing a petition to get his. His tab pulled. So, no, it does not say anything about the community. But I tell you this, it says a lot about Usasak. And if anyone knows anyone in Usasak, that should be a question that you should be asking Usasak. I've been told there is finally an official investigation. And what really put it over the top was his claim to have. Of all the women and children that he claims to have killed so that, you know, I think they finally had enough. But it shouldn't have taken that. There was plenty of evidence before this. He should have got his tab pulled when he screwed up the whole operation in Afghanistan with that. With that bus stunt. This is a good time to stop for. For those who stayed with us this whole time. If you really want a nugget, I'm about to give it to you, Drew. There you go. You're. You're way ahead of it. Let's start with the top one right there.
Doll Revere
We move 12 out, I'll give you another plane. And that was the. That was the initial promise. And 10 days later, we moved 12,000 people out of Afghanistan. 11% of everybody that left the country during the evacuation, me and three of my friends on the ground, and 12 of us total in the Middle east moved. We moved 12 out. I'll give you another plane.
Brent Tuckerton
All right.
Doll Revere
And that was. That was the initial.
Brent Tuckerton
What if I told you you can go from podcast to podcast. And his book, he claims he even pointed at himself. So he can't get out of the word games with this one. He says it time and time and time and time and time and time again. Me, three other guys, 10 days, 12, 000 people. What if I told you Tim Kennedy was on the ground for just a little bit over 24 hours and not 10 days?
Brian Y. Adams
And I have question was at 12, 000 prior to the second plane.
Brent Tuckerton
What's that consider to get the second.
Brian Y. Adams
Plane if you move the guys out?
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, he's. He's cut it a little bit. I cut it a little bit earlier. He said every plane that, that they. They gave him, he had. He had to make sure it was full. So he's saying all those full planes, you know, total to 12, 000 people. But what if I told you the guy who says he's been there 10 days, and for all of you people who always go to this really, really, really bad argument, and they go, well, yeah, he's stolen valor. Yeah, everything he said, he's a liar, but he does all this good work, so let's focus on the good work he does. Well, my original answer to that is, what makes you think if I've proven everything he said about combat was a lie? What makes you think he just tells the truth about getting people out? I've always. People have sent me things about that before, but I've never been out. I've never been able to actually verify it. I can tell you right now, I can verify it, that Tim Kennedy was on the ground between 24 and 48 hours, not 10 days. So he lied again. And once again. And the only thing he did during that time was hop on that operation of the buses and screw up. And you worked. And. And you. And you still do as. As. As an on call person. You work for the Sentinel Foundation. Heck, Brown, I don't want to blow you up. You. You'll never talk about yourself. You were there for evacuation operations, and one of the reasons. One of the reasons you had to go to another country to do evacuation operations was because of Tim Kennedy's bus stint.
Brian Y. Adams
Facts.
Brent Tuckerton
So. So there you go. Everyone who wants to claim all the good things he's done. He wasn't even in. He wasn't Even Afghanistan for 10 days like he claimed. So once again, here I go, telling the truth and everything I said before, like, what makes you think he's just gonna tell the. The truth about all the good things and be right about that again? We're gonna do a whole new podcast, an episode about all of this. And I'll bring receipts as I do Gosney's cellmate.
Drew Lissy
Who's Gosney know?
Brent Tuckerton
No, but. But this is a cellmate.
Drew Lissy
It's a cellmate. Happy and business day party responsibly. Call a DD Uber taxi friend Fact. Good advice.
Brent Tuckerton
An Uber is a lot cheaper than dui.
Drew Lissy
Chris Smith, Brent, Avenged Sevenfold, or Orlando's own Trivium.
Brent Tuckerton
Avenge Sevenfold all day long. I do like Trivium, but I'm. I'm a big fan of a Vin Seven fold. Big fan. Oh, yeah, I love them. Yeah, When I only went to one of their concerts. Was a great concert.
Devin
Thank God that wasn't a song request because I was about to try to do the conversion rate of the US dollar. I was like, oh, shit, Chris.
Drew Lissy
Chris has another $20 for the team America theme song.
Brent Tuckerton
It's creeping up there to the hundred.
Drew Lissy
Casual ace has been RPG and blown up and can say crying about fireworks is pretty un American.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you, sir. All us real ones are gonna band together and just shame them.
Drew Lissy
My morning song this is Joe Saunders, the Black Crows, My morning song. Just saying.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't. I don't see where you connect those dots.
Devin
Even on the 4th of July when somebody asked what song are you gonna play tomorrow morning?
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, but on the 4th of July, I'm a real American. Who sings it? What's the Hulk Hogan song? Who sings it?
Drew Lissy
Hulk Hogan sings it.
Brent Tuckerton
Hulk Hogan sings? No, he doesn't sing. Oh my God. He plays the guitar in the video and everything. What are you talking about?
Drew Lissy
I seen it on social media.
Brent Tuckerton
You know, Hulk Hogan was in a band before he was arrested. He can play guitar.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, he sang that song.
Brent Tuckerton
He didn't sing the song. Stop saying that.
Devin
People should be out here spreading like false facts.
Brent Tuckerton
No, we can't be the podcast of truth. You guys say those things.
Drew Lissy
We're at the podcast of truth. About veterans or everything else. You know, who knows? TJ Paris says Brent, would I be concerned a FOB considered?
Brent Tuckerton
A FOBit.
Drew Lissy
Sort of considered. I was 11 Bravo in the 82nd during the fall of Never left the Wire. But what if there is no wire, Abbey 4th.
Brent Tuckerton
I'll give you that on the technicality. No, I would not consider you a FOB in that situation. Absolutely not. Especially I don't consider 11 Bravos in the 82nd a Fabit. Even if they never left the base. Because at the end of the day, if an 11 Bravo's would have. Basically they're protecting the base.
Brian Y. Adams
Base security.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, their base security. And. And that's. And that's different. Like someone has to protect everyone. That does not make you a fobbit in my mind. Hoa.
Drew Lissy
Jump out, boys. Happy fourth alcag, daddy.
Brent Tuckerton
I really should have looked in the mirror twice before. Before. Before going with this outfit.
Drew Lissy
Finger banging.
Brent Tuckerton
4.99.
Drew Lissy
Man. That's quite the profile pic. Let's see.
Brent Tuckerton
You have some more fun facts.
Devin
I do.
Brent Tuckerton
I'm ready for a fun fact. I would.
Devin
Let's get in here. Which one haven't we talked about yet? Ben Franklin tried to electrocute a turkey for Thanksgiving. He thought that electricity made the meat more tender. And I don't blame him for that. He ended up accidentally zapping himself unconscious instead.
Drew Lissy
Nice. Yes, that's a pioneer right there.
Brent Tuckerton
All right, this is. This is what I kind of hate about what I'm about to say. You know, Ben Franklin wanted the turkey to be the. The national bird. National bird. Now there's nothing cooler than a bald eagle, but. And. And it's just like the jokes about turkeys. But let me tell You. You ever hunted turkeys? You ever seen turkeys run through the woods? Turkeys are elusive, quiet animals. They are. There's. There's something like they really are, and I hate that. That's just like the. The negative, you know, feelings about turkeys. Because, yeah, you can call someone a name, a turkey, but people make fun of about that, but turkey wasn't a bad bird. Wasn't a bad choice.
Devin
Can I hear your best turkey call?
Drew Lissy
That was good. Top that Internet. Sun Wukong. Shout out to the U.S. coast Guard. Because when you're here, you're family, but.
Brent Tuckerton
When you're not there, you're not family.
Drew Lissy
Don't overthink, okay, Hightower. We miss our all American Paris. Super Trooper Brent. Aren't you and Brian the standard. Instead of waiting on the apology, why don't we go get it? Or have you lost a step keg daddy? President 48, first of yalls kind of American.
Brent Tuckerton
Your. You're assuming that. That I didn't go directly to get it, and I still did not get the apology I was seeking.
Drew Lissy
I think this guy is asking for even more direct.
Brent Tuckerton
Like, can't get any more direct than what I did. Well, legally.
Drew Lissy
Legally, you can't. Okay, But I think he's asking for something a little more hostile.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Drew Lissy
That's what it sounds like.
Brent Tuckerton
I don't know.
Drew Lissy
That's what I'm picking up. I don't know what you're dropping down there, but that's what I. What I'm getting there. All right, Sten, I guess that's it. Brent. Best July 4th mission during Guat G. What I have.
Brent Tuckerton
I have. Dang it. I have a Memorial Day story. Actually, I don't. I really. Of all my deployments. For whatever reason, I don't remember being deployed on the 4th of July, which blows my mind. There's no way I missed a Fourth of July all my deployments. Except I feel like I would. I remember some Christmases. I remember a Memorial Day in Syria.
Drew Lissy
There's just no way.
Brent Tuckerton
I never deployed on a fourth, but I cannot think of one. But in a weird way, when you're deployed, like. Like those. Those. There's just the. Especially that one. Like, that's. That's just another day that you almost want to forget. Like, you can only sell. I feel you can only celebrate that day in America. Like, it doesn't feel the same. So. Like Christmas. Yeah. I celebrated everywhere but for a reason. I can only think of a Memorial Day trip. But I'll tell you the Memorial Day story. We had this big party planned in Syria. We just. We just want to all be together for Memorial Day. And so we had some teams scattered across Syria, and those teams came in to our base because we had built. I don't want to call it a bar, because that's. We. You don't drink overseas. That's illegal. But it was a bar like thing that. That we had renovated, and we invited all the teams to come do a cookout with us. And then a mission dropped, and everyone was there enjoying what we had set up for them. And we get called out on this mission. And so I had. I had stashed in the truck. It was a. It was a. A vehicle raid, a gaff, if you will. And I had stashed some roadies of. We'll call them Gatorades. Okay? And for. For the way back, assuming that there was good reason to drink and nothing bad happened, so. But on the way there, we had a ranger driving the truck. We had an Air Force guy shotgun. We had me in the back seat and a dev group guy next to me, and I said, hey, here's a joke, guys. There's a ranger, a cct, a seal, and a Delta Force operator in a truck who's driving. He didn't like that joke. It was a good mission, and I was able to pull those Gatorades out, and by the time we. We got to link up with the boys, we were. We were on par.
Brian Y. Adams
Nice.
Drew Lissy
All right, Good effects. Says Bulldog bite. Pet river. What a blast. 327.
Brent Tuckerton
Check you out. Gosh, I haven't The. If you asked me to name that river, I couldn't have named it Petch River. I hate that I've forgotten as much as. As I have. Like, just, like, locations, dates, names, other units. Like, it's. It's. I should have written things down.
Devin
How to spell episode.
Brent Tuckerton
Why are you bringing up old stuff? Okay, I am notorious for posting things on social media. I'm always in a hurry. I type it out, I send it, I go.
Drew Lissy
And you're at the age where you need reading glasses and you don't wear them yet.
Devin
Thank you.
Drew Lissy
Gosh.
Brent Tuckerton
What? That's not what tonight is about, guys.
Devin
Drew's on Doll's team.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, keep going, Keep going. I like the story. It's not unheard of for Doll Revere to text me and say you misspelled something.
Devin
Oh, wait, can I take it one further, Brian, please. You'll appreciate this. Good old Brent decides that he's gonna drop a big slab of barbecue sauce right on his like, brand new white pants. Great. I go, hey, man, you look like you're shit yourself. He goes, no problem. He grabs a full MC Ultra, flips it to get some, like, juice to wipe it off, hits me right in the fucking eye. I mean, all of it in my eye. And I'm like, I can't see shit. You just. I wear contacts completely blind. And I'm like, what is go. Why would you do that, first off? And like, how did you directly hit my eye socket? And I know that you have a similar story with Brent on this.
Brent Tuckerton
Do you remember this, Brian? Do I have to jog your memory on it? You do.
Devin
Oh, my golly.
Brent Tuckerton
We are in. We are in South America with the Sentinel foundation, and we're. We're doing. We're on an op in a city, waiting, waiting to see a car pull up. And we decide. We look up like, oh, there's a rooftop bar. We don't have to be down here on the city street. We can go up there to the rooftop bar and do the same job. In fact, that's where we need to be so we won't be out of place. And they gave, and we got Coronas. And I put the lime down. The Corona put it upside down. I put it right side up. And you know how, like, it bubbles up like all that pressure. And I shot a Corona right in your eye. And we laughed and laughed and laughed because the only thing we have to do right now is be able to see. And I just took. I just took your vision away with. With a Corona slash lime squirt directly in your eye.
Brian Y. Adams
But 50% is better than zero.
Brent Tuckerton
Do you not remember that? Now that jogged your memory a little bit. Do you not remember that?
Drew Lissy
How many coronas were involved in this?
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Oh, my gosh.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, I do remember. We at one time, we find a. A drone.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, don't bring up the drone.
Brian Y. Adams
Good times, Good times.
Brent Tuckerton
All right, we're in South America again with the sit in the foundation, getting ready to. To do an op. The Cine foundation, just as a. Primarily a child rescue organization, although they'll do humanitarian efforts as well. And I did the right thing by pulling the drone out the day before and doing a test on it. I wanted to make sure that it flew. Just. Just doing a test and I tested it and the battery, and it had low. Well, at 1, it kind of had a low battery, but I thought, I'll just send it out, bring it back and make sure and just ops test it. And it was. And out of nowhere this constant high wind comes up, and I can't get it back to me. And then it runs out of juice and it crash lands, like, several doors away from us. We need this drone for tomorrow's op. And I crash land it, and. And some in somebody's. In somebody's backyard. And we had to start doing bnese to. To recover the drone. And that. That. I almost want to say that was on me, but I was also doing the right thing, but. Yeah, but. But the end result, still the same.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah. Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
It's my. My bad. I love how I tell that story, and you look at me like, yeah, that checks out.
Devin
I feel like you have so many common themes with, like, you trying to do the right thing. It's like, oh, I gotta get out of the way. There's. There's an ambulance coming behind me. I have to run this red light. And as soon as you go to it, like, turns green or something. You're like, I was just trying to do the right thing. Like, somehow it works out in your favor somehow. It doesn't sometimes, but for effort, I.
Brent Tuckerton
I told you from the beginning, and I. I still stand by this.
Devin
I can say this verbatim.
Brent Tuckerton
Ready, Send it.
Devin
I will impress you how smart I am.
Brent Tuckerton
I will. That's not humble of me. I will.
Devin
I'll impress you with how stupid I am.
Brent Tuckerton
Yes. And that same man can do both things equally well.
Devin
God, it's so good. You wanna do the Joe Ratman story?
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah, I'll do the Joe Redmond story.
Devin
We are on our way to acdc. We get onto a tarmac, about to catch a plane to go there. A pilot comes out and they go, hey, Joe Rutman's party. He goes, yeah, no weapons. And they go, joe. And I hear what's going on. I go, hey, I was like, just.
Brent Tuckerton
This guy wants to fly a private plane from Orlando to Tampa.
Devin
He goes, yeah, no weapons. He's like, except these. I'm like, please put your arms out. He's asking for a Joe Rutman's party. He's like, that's what I told him. No weapons. I'm like, oh, God. I'm like, well, all right. It's Joe Ratman. He's like, oh, I've been saying no weapons this whole time. I'm like, I know what you're saying. I also know what he's saying. You sound ridiculous right now. I thought it was a joke at first.
Brent Tuckerton
Everybody heard it but me. I swear. I heard no weapons question mark, but no weapons. No weapons. No weapons.
Devin
Except These.
Drew Lissy
No weapons.
Brent Tuckerton
Except I was so confident.
Devin
Joke out of it. He's messing with the pilot. I'm like, oh, God. He's gonna cut us off before he.
Brent Tuckerton
Can get on the plane. He's not gonna let us on the plane.
Drew Lissy
All right, this is the takeaway for all you single guys out there. You don't have to be cool to land a beautiful woman. All right, that's it. Finger banging. Brent, you should ask Shane Gillis to join a live. Would be funny as Finland. Ask him how to. How it's going with his new girlfriend.
Brent Tuckerton
Whose ex was a seal, not a new girlfriend. All right, I'm glad. I'm glad you know a little about Shane Gillis. And this is something. This is the one thing I have against Shane. I. I'm a big fan. I don't fanboy out a lot, and I still. I don't know if I'd fanboy out, but I. I genuinely would love to have him on the show. Like, it. It would be almost like an honor. Very. I think very highly of. Of him. He's hilarious. He can drink like a fish.
Devin
You love tires.
Brent Tuckerton
I love tires. I got the. I got the Val. The TV show. Thank you. I got. I got the Valley Forge shirt. In fact, I was on a quick. Quick side note. I was on Valhalla's live, and I was wearing the Valley Forge tire shop shirt, and someone asked him. He goes, hey, Brent, do you like tires? And so I can't see the super chats, so Nate wants to goes, brent, do you like. Do you like tires? I'm sure he does. Like, they. They. You need them for your car? I'm like, no, no, no. I see. I see. I see the miscommunication here for once. I'm like, no, it's. It's a. It's a. It's a show, man. I love that. He loves history. He's a. He's a funny dude. He is. He is dating one of the douchiest girls that he absolutely could. When you showed me his girlfriend's social media, I'm like, no, Shane, don't do that. No, she's just an absolute, like, gold digger, fame seeker. She just doesn't seem like a. A good person. Of course, now, saying all that about his girlfriend, I'm sure he will not come on the show now, but speaking.
Devin
Of people that's on the show, I.
Brent Tuckerton
Didn'T think we were getting him on the show anyway, so no loss.
Devin
Speaking of people that would come on the show, who? DJ Ty.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh. Oh, I'M a big fan of Love on the Spectrum. I know that's weird. Good job. But. But if you haven't seen it, do not judge me. If you haven't seen it. Seen it, and you'll immediately understand why I'm a fan of that show. What's the name of it again? Love on the Spectrum. It's a bunch of autistic. The word autistic is thrown around. Truly autistic people that are trying to date and find love. And it is ho, Larry.
Drew Lissy
And tastefully done.
Brent Tuckerton
And tastefully done.
Drew Lissy
Tastefully done.
Brent Tuckerton
Right.
Devin
We may or may not have been binge watched that.
Drew Lissy
I watched it twice.
Brent Tuckerton
I talked Drew into it. Yeah, Drew had to talk his wife into it.
Drew Lissy
Some of the best nights of my life.
Brent Tuckerton
So you know the DJ White Tie?
Devin
Ty? Why?
Brent Tuckerton
Tyler White. Tyler White, the guy. The guy that lives in Tampa.
Devin
He's all going, oh, he DJs at the Strawberry Festival.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, yeah, Love that guy.
Brent Tuckerton
I reached out to him on social media, asked him to come on a Thursday Night Live that were vets right here in Orlando, and he said, let me check with Netflix. I want to do it. We're gonna have one of. I think if anything works out, we're gonna have DJ taiwai on a Thursday Night Live.
Drew Lissy
DJ did the biggest baller move in that TV show where he is literally making out with his girlfriend in front of her parents.
Brent Tuckerton
That was so hard to watch.
Drew Lissy
And the father is asking him a question and he's answering the question while kissing the girl. Who can get away with that?
Devin
He's a baller. He's the perfect guest, realistically.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. So guys, get excited about it. I hope you're half as excited as I am about it.
Drew Lissy
All right. Yeah, get. Watch the show. Get to know dj. All right, this is Tyler. Even though he's not here, do you have a CIB or C Combat in Iraq? Much love to you all.
Brent Tuckerton
Jonathan, who. Who do you think that is?
Devin
Right?
Brent Tuckerton
Or.
Drew Lissy
Oh, well, Tyler, you want to answer the question?
Brent Tuckerton
Who. Who do you think that is?
Devin
Vipers. Put on the pit vipers. And then you just act like you're Tyler and it works. There you go.
Brent Tuckerton
Give an answer.
Devin
There you go.
Brian Y. Adams
Give an answer.
Devin
Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
Okay.
Drew Lissy
Tyler, did you have a CIB or C Combat in Iraq? You'll be Tyler, you answer.
Brian Y. Adams
You did.
Brent Tuckerton
You.
Brian Y. Adams
Did I. I'm savvy.
Drew Lissy
All right, he has one there it is the way. Brent, what is the story behind the Pick on the roof? When you're smoking a cigarette with another dude.
Brent Tuckerton
That'S a Good question. I don't think anyone's ever asked me. Because you smelt so bad. That's right. Yeah. I'd ask you about it. Yeah. Magna Carta knows it. We're in Syria and the Syrians and Russians were surrendering to us. And we were doing overwatch to. To give basically like the surrender letter to him. And so it would be official. And that's what I was doing. I was pulling overwatch for the poor, lowest ranking Kurdish guy to have to walk across enemy lines to go have the commander read this note that basically said, hey, you will vacate the supremacist in 24 hours or. Or more heat's coming. And that guy was so nervous, he was shaking. And then they shot at him as he was crossing the line. And he went to turn around. The Kurds, like. No, they shot at him back, like at his feet, both sides. And so he had to turn back around with. And it was just. It was like one of those things you watch when you see, like, partner force stuff. You're like, what is going on here? Anyway? That's. I had a occurred next to me. There's. There's some pictures of him photoshopped out. There's some pictures of him with me. And I'm smoking a cigarette because I smell so bad. I don't want to smell myself anymore. I. I don't. Have you ever seen me smoke a cigarette? We've known each other for a long time. No, I smoked a cigarette because I wanted to smell anything else except my body. My. My body odor. Yeah, that's. That's why. Good question.
Drew Lissy
All right.
Brian Y. Adams
Talk about a mission that's, you know, failure is. Is not an exception. It's like you are going to. To finish this task.
Brent Tuckerton
That's right. That's right. One side's gonna shoot you. Yeah. Yeah. Pick. Pick who you want to shoot. You, your own guys or the other side. That poor guy. Gosh, that poor guy.
Drew Lissy
John D. Says Independence Day because of civilians who had and carried weapons.
Brent Tuckerton
That's right.
Drew Lissy
Brent, you should look at having Major Fred Galvin. He was the CEO of the first MARSOC team sent to Afghanistan that got effed.
Brent Tuckerton
Why did he get asked who effed him?
Brian Y. Adams
Interesting.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Drew Lissy
Marcus Stryker back in again at $50, man. Thank you.
Brent Tuckerton
Marcus Galvin.
Drew Lissy
That was Major Fred Galvin.
Brent Tuckerton
Major Fred Galvin.
Drew Lissy
Major Fred Galvin. CEO of the first marsad.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you, Vanessa.
Drew Lissy
Sent to Afghanistan.
Brent Tuckerton
All right.
Drew Lissy
So let it be written. So let it be done.
Brent Tuckerton
Hopefully this did this. Was. Was he one of the team? Did He. Was he part of the group that got kicked out of Afghanistan? Is that how he got effed or did they not get kicked out of Afghanistan? Anyway, don't bring up bad stuff.
Drew Lissy
But Marcus says, awesome, I will have to get. And Marcus is the trooper up north talking to distributors about the bourbon. Awesome. I will have to get an order of single bottles for me. My friends and family buy a case to show some of the distributors. They were wanting to know what the bottles and packaging look like. Happy fourth of July again.
Brent Tuckerton
I'll give credit where credit is due. I have. This is going to sound braggadocious at first, but I have designed every cigar label, every box, every coffee bag. Not because I'm great at it, like out of necessity, you know, money that we spend on those things or money we can't use to support first responders. I feel like I've done a decent job. The first one was trash. We've, we've upgraded a lot. And so I, I was gonna do what I always do and I was going to design the bourbon label as well. And I, I had like my version 1 didn't like it. Version 2 didn't like it. I was up at version 8, 9 and I could not, for the life of me, I could not design a label that I wanted. And we're just some, some honesty here. I'm showing $revere some of. Some like my top two. I was. And I wasn't happy with them, but I was hoping like, well, maybe I'm just getting a little like, maybe, maybe it's just me. Let me show, let me show someone else. Maybe they'll like it. She couldn't have been any more unimpressed with my label designs. And she said, you need to get a professional person to design this because when it comes, everything's about the packaging. Like it really is. The packaging's what the packaging is. The first thing that at least get them to try it. And the product has to be good. And so she sent me to a professional designer that, that she knew and they designed one of the best looking bottles and labels that I ever could have done. And it's actually because of her.
Devin
Well, well, we were in Nashville and Drew Lissies, myself and Brent were at a very nice steakhouse known for the bourbon. And we basically looked at all of the bottles. They were, they had hundreds of bourbon bottles on their shelf. We're like, which of these look good? And there was maybe one, two.
Brent Tuckerton
There wasn't a lot of good ones.
Devin
There wasn't a lot of Good ones. I'm like, man, I want this to pop so it looks really good.
Brent Tuckerton
Like.
Devin
And it is going to be the most unique bottle.
Brent Tuckerton
Yes.
Devin
You'll ever see.
Brent Tuckerton
I love that they asked about the packaging because I know if that's what they're interested in, then we got it.
Drew Lissy
Hoa. Jump out, boys. Again says, happy Fourth Alcag, daddy.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, thank you. Thank you.
Drew Lissy
All right, Jonathan. Val says hopefully my last question gets skipped too.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, no. Well, the. The. I hate to say this because it sounds bad. The cheaper ones just. There's a timer on it and they. They go faster.
Drew Lissy
And I hate that Jacob Schneider says Osama Brent Laden opinion on the Roland special. Also, is Tyler finally taking the fire exam like a man?
Brent Tuckerton
No. No, he's not. He's having a well deserved Thursday night off. I know. I've taken. I've taken several. I think it's the first Thursday night that Tyler hasn't been here. I think he's. Yeah, I think. I think he earned it. I don't know what the Roland special is.
Drew Lissy
All right. Drew Hightower breakfast cigar. Kind of like Rojas breakfast taco. The apprentice burnt his hand by too many crisp high fives to himself.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, no, don't do that. I think the Apprentice is what he's talking about. The. The guy messed with the silver.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, the silver dude.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Drew Lissy
Too many.
Brent Tuckerton
What's your favorite breakfast cigar? Maybe he's asking that. Maybe he's not.
Drew Lissy
Well, if he is or isn't, it is definitely the frcc. Charlie, man.
Brent Tuckerton
The Connecticut.
Drew Lissy
The Connecticut.
Brent Tuckerton
Nice little light cigars.
Drew Lissy
Light and bright in the morning.
Brent Tuckerton
Tell you you want to get the. The digestive system rolling. You get a cup of coffee and a. And a cigar, you won't have to worry about it.
Devin
Do you think Camel will sponsor us if I plug them right now?
Brent Tuckerton
Sure. Sure. It's worth a try.
Devin
Also these. I know everybody's big on zins, but Camel snus this.
Brent Tuckerton
Ever since you turned them on to me, every time someone gives me something else, I try it, but it's not.
Devin
Turn them on to you. Turned you on to them ever since.
Brent Tuckerton
Turned me on to them.
Devin
No, no. I think that Camel wants you. I think you're saying it right.
Brian Y. Adams
Snuff.
Drew Lissy
All right.
Brent Tuckerton
JT Marketing budget.
Drew Lissy
JT says fun fact. Morocco was the first country to recognize the United States as an independent nation in 1777.
Brent Tuckerton
I believe Morocco is also pronounced Morocco.
Drew Lissy
Oh, yeah. Morocco.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Drew Lissy
100%. Zubi. Zubi. TK is the goat. Happy fourth. What battle do you think was the most monumental for American during the Revolutionary War. The last one.
Devin
Brian.
Brian Y. Adams
That's a good question. The goat. That's great. Okay, for fun facts, during the Boston Massacre, who was the first casualty?
Drew Lissy
That was a white guy.
Brian Y. Adams
Was it?
Drew Lissy
Yeah.
Devin
Big sad. Why?
Brian Y. Adams
I'm not sure.
Drew Lissy
You talking about the shot that was.
Brian Y. Adams
Heard around the world with the first casualty of.
Drew Lissy
Of the world.
Brian Y. Adams
Boston Massacre. Oh, Boston Massacre prior to the Tea Party.
Devin
Fun fact.
Drew Lissy
Some of this stuff gets all blurred in my mind. There's a shot around the world, right. The guys that were messing with the red Coats, the red coats were like, you know, kind of things were getting heated and I think a shot accidentally went off.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah. And I'm gonna say maybe a couple casualties from that.
Drew Lissy
Yeah. But that's not the Boston Massacre.
Devin
It's the ponytail for me.
Drew Lissy
I don't know. That was an amazing piece.
Brent Tuckerton
Like a League of Their Own type.
Drew Lissy
P. Most monumental American battle in the Revolutionary War. I said it was the last one, but maybe you got something.
Brent Tuckerton
Yorktown.
Drew Lissy
Yorktown.
Brent Tuckerton
Let me give a fun fact about that one. Why I loved it so much. Let me tell you about say how badass America is and was and always has been. Always will be, always will be. Thank you. Thank you. Alexander Hamilton, which was one of our first Secretary of Treasury, he was our money guy. Okay. When he was one of the generals in the Revolutionary War. And George Washington loved his insight and advice so much. He pretty much never let him live leave the headquarters tent. He's like, this is where I need you. And like most real men of the day, like the glory was in and was in the battle and he wanted to get down there and be with the men and do battle. And George is like nah, this is, this is where I need you. And I feel for him. Like I can imagine how like how much that sucks. I'm sure I'm just gonna go on opinion here. I'm sure he saw other people do in battle and get accolades, be like I'm better than that guy. Like I'm smarter than that guy. And here I am like I don't get my chance. And he wrote about how that, how that, that bugged him. Well, the battle of Yorktown, they, the, the siege if you will, they're about to lay some just revolutionary magnitude ass kicking to the Brits. How they had been for a little bit now that the tides had turned, but they couldn't get fully into position because there was a cannon position that they needed to take and it was a vital position. And Hamilton looked at George and Said, you've kept me on the sideline this whole war. Let me go take that position. And George said, this one's yours, buddy. And he did one of the coolest things. He goes over there with his, with his men and says, hey, this needs to be taken. He's be taken. Now we can wait till daylight and battle it out like normal, but how about we do something cool? How about we fix bayonets and how about we move in the darkness as close as we can and then we can't move any closer. Let's just storm them and stab all these red coats and take the, and take the position tonight again. Another like origin special operations type mission. And that's exactly what he did. And they were all like, no, I don't know, this is a bad idea. Like, this isn't how we do war. Like, they're gonna see us come in. They're going to annihilate us. And that's exactly what they did. A bunch of hard ass Americans snuck up on them on the men, middle of the night, stormed them and took it. And I believe with no casualties.
Brian Y. Adams
Nice.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Devin
I have a question.
Brent Tuckerton
That was our money guy.
Drew Lissy
That was our money guy with our farmer guys, with our farm.
Brent Tuckerton
I have a question with our farmer.
Drew Lissy
Guys, with our farmer cats.
Devin
That's all you needed. That's all you really needed, but this.
Brent Tuckerton
Is all, that's all you really is farm. Give me, give me, give me a platoon of farmer guys and I will take any position you want, want to be taken. And of course, that's kind of who our special operations is made of. A bunch of farmer guys. Nothing's really changed. There's, there's some one offs and yes, it's an eclectic bunch, but generally speaking, not much has changed. The people who still sneak over there in the middle of the night are your farmer guys.
Devin
Yeah, you almost beat me to it. But do you believe that the American grit of what it used to be, like, how much balls you needed to have back then, like, how much grit bravery. Do you feel like? Because now we have a competitive advantage that might be a little bit tapered back, like, because back then it was kind of one for one. Now we have a big defense budget. Like, do you feel that we lost that somewhere along the way? Are we fighting as hard as we used to? Because that was genius. Hard.
Brent Tuckerton
It wasn't a given. They don't have night vision goggles. They're not calling in airstrikes.
Devin
Like it did inhibit ourselves because of that.
Brent Tuckerton
So at the end of the Day I truly believe this. Yes, there are, there are easy times right now, but there are men in this country that will, that will grab their sack and do whatever is needed. I mean it wasn't that long ago, I mean really that a bunch of absolute heroes signed their death warrant and stormed aboard the beaches of Normandy. They did. Yes. This is a different country. But I'm saying is there will always be a percentage of men that will do what is needed. Will that, will that pool get smaller and grow? You know, as, as a pendulum swings? Absolutely. But it's never zero. It's the never zero.
Devin
No, they will. But I'm saying the, the thought process behind going and doing things that maybe were unthought of, like the things that actually take like this, the next step. Right. Because right now we know that we have NVGs, we know we have all.
Brent Tuckerton
Those things you say that. I, I would say I've seen it. Like I've, even though we have all those advantages and I've, and I've said this before and Brian, I want you to weigh in after this. You. I've said this before. What I saw, I almost feel bad saying about like all the combat experience I, I have and all the things I've done because your average grunt in War 2 has seen more combat, more realism than I can even imagine. I don't feel like every night I got on a helicopter, people, people will say nice things, be like, oh, that was that. I don't know how you did that. Like, that's so brave. We were, we were always, I never thought necessary necessarily that, that I was going to die. I always thought we had the upper hand. I always thought the guys beside me, the left and the right were the best guys in the world and that we're always going to come out on top. So it didn't always happen. But 99 times out of 100 that is how it happened. So I think it, I think it, I think it is different but at the same time I've seen those few missions where it was not guaranteed, it actually was guaranteed that someone is not coming home tonight. And those guys still willingly, happily loaded up their kit, got on that helicopter and, and did work.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, I, I, I agree with you. I think like you said that that pool is I think now definitely smaller. There, there is a group and you know, whether you want to date it or not, it's, we're probably 40, 50 year old men.
Brent Tuckerton
Why can I throw a number to it?
Devin
They don't make them like this anymore.
Brian Y. Adams
It's Just the. It's just. It's just the way it is. It's science.
Brent Tuckerton
But.
Brian Y. Adams
And at that time back then, it's like, what. What choice did you have? There was no. No external distractions.
Brent Tuckerton
That's another good point. What other choice did you have?
Devin
Yeah, that's a great point.
Brian Y. Adams
Like now it's. It. You. Okay, well, it. I think it's just gonna. It's harder to get that type of mentality. Well, that with the experience. I know they're out there. It's just a circumstance of. Of your environment that you were growing up in. And I think that has a lot to do with it.
Brent Tuckerton
Here's. Here's a good. I think, ending to it. And I feel you'll feel the same way. I had a lot of GWAD experience. I was as Delta Force operators should be. I was very confident in my ability and I was very. A lot of swagger to me. And I was like, man, I'm gonna be hard to replace when I leave. And then, you know what happened in 2021? I left.
Brian Y. Adams
We replaced.
Brent Tuckerton
I was replaced. And guess who replaced me. Who? A very competent young man. I don't even know his name, but I guarantee you he's out there doing the job right now. Yep.
Brian Y. Adams
I agree with you.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. So you got replaced 100. I got replaced.
Brian Y. Adams
Absolutely.
Brent Tuckerton
The pool smaller. But, you know, there's. There's still men willing to raise their hand and do that job. Yep.
Brian Y. Adams
And you know, it's.
Devin
I think, you know, you guys are both fathers. How do you raise men like that? Just. That's tough.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Today I'll tell you. And it's a weird thing to say, but by telling your kid no, that's it. And it sounds. It sounds weird, but my. My dad told me no way more than he told me. Yes. And he was. And I grew up in a trailer. Double wide trailer to begin with. I've told this story a couple times. Excuse me. But by the end, we were doing pretty good. And my dad could have bought me anything he wanted to buy me and he didn't. He made life hard on me. And I think that's what you do. And. And I think the hardest thing you do as a parent is make life hard on your kids.
Drew Lissy
Because life ain't fair. Life is hard.
Brian Y. Adams
It's the hardest thing to do, but it's the most beneficial thing to give to your.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Drew Lissy
Make your kids do hard things.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Work for it. Can I buy this right now for you? Sure.
Brian Y. Adams
Here. No, you got to work for it. It's. You have to experience that.
Brent Tuckerton
There's another one. You have to let your kids fail. Like they have to experience failure. I've said this before. I learned way more from the missions. The few. But they were there from the few missions that went wrong than I ever learned from the missions that went right. Negative things, failure are just. Just impress so much more in a man than success does. If all you know is successful, then that man doesn't really know what he's made of. Really doesn't.
Brian Y. Adams
I agree. That's where your growth comes. Comes from failure.
Brent Tuckerton
So I say the same thing about leadership. I learned way more in hindsight. I wish. That's one thing I wish I could have told younger Brent to some degree. Like, you will learn way more from bad leaders than you ever will from good leaders. And what I mean by that is bad leaders aren't going to teach you the right thing. But they will impress on you so much. I will never be like that guy. I will never handle that situation like that. I will never do this. I will never do that. And it's not until you really get a really bad leader that you truly appreciate a good leader or what you thought was a mediocre leader. You look back, you go, damn. He was actually pretty good.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, I agree with you.
Drew Lissy
All right. We gotta get through these super chats. It's getting late. Walter Everson says America F. Yeah. Darren Bees $200. I'm a man of my word. Thanks for the juice.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, you didn't have to do that.
Drew Lissy
Cool Hand Dan. TK is just like King George. By the time he comes clean, he'll have some Fox News nerd surrender his sword. Hashtag Simple Jack. I love anti hero. Stay free.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you, Cool Hand Dan Caldi.
Drew Lissy
I have always wondered what would happen if I injected my TRT straight to my ball bag.
Brent Tuckerton
You should try it. Let us know. I think only good. Only good things can happen.
Drew Lissy
Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
There's a lawsuit waiting to happen.
Drew Lissy
Do like Ben Franklin did. You know, do cool stuff.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. Experiment.
Drew Lissy
Get electrocuted. You know, pass out from injecting yourself in places. Salvador. Happy fourth gents and lady four. Former president Abraham Lincoln was an accomplished wrestler.
Brent Tuckerton
Right? He was.
Drew Lissy
Allegedly. He had over 300 matches and lost one match.
Brent Tuckerton
That would be.
Drew Lissy
Could you.
Brent Tuckerton
300 matches and only lost one. I don't care how mediocre those matches was. Just you line up against 300. 300 random men. There's going to be a handful in there that should hand you your ass. Do you have another fun Fact. Since we're doing fun. That was a good one.
Devin
We're way past time.
Brent Tuckerton
I mean, let's do it. Just give me. Just give me a fun fact. It's the 4th of July. It's the 4th of july.
Devin
All right.
Drew Lissy
It's gonna be.
Devin
Patrick Henry literally shouted his most famous line, Give me liberty or give me death. It wasn't just a phrase. He screamed it so loud in court that one listener shouted to the gallows with him.
Drew Lissy
Nice.
Brent Tuckerton
Wow. Nice. I didn't know that.
Drew Lissy
I know. When you think of that story, you think of this, like, gentlemanly colonial man.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Drew Lissy
Give me liberty or give me death. Right as he's about to be. No.
Devin
This dude's screaming like a nuisance.
Brent Tuckerton
I love that.
Drew Lissy
Make a movie.
Brent Tuckerton
Didn't know that. That was.
Devin
All these very fun.
Brent Tuckerton
All right, what else we got? Drew?
Drew Lissy
Silent killer. What up, boys? Watching from the firehouse.
Brent Tuckerton
Nice. Thank you for your service, man.
Drew Lissy
Jefferson. Newbie. For 50 bucks. Happy 4th from North Carolina. 22 year army vet. Keeping crushing it. Tell my girl Shauna hi.
Brent Tuckerton
Hey, Shauna.
Drew Lissy

Brent Tuckerton
Thank you, Jay. We're turning the tide. We're turning the tide for sure.
Drew Lissy
Thank you for taking that fight in somalia, baby.
Brent Tuckerton
Absolutely, Mr.
Drew Lissy
Plight. Yesterday was the middle of the year, so that means we are now closer to the year 2050 than we are 2000.
Brent Tuckerton
Oh, my gosh.
Drew Lissy
I'm old. Happy Independence day to everyone. 249 years of being the best nation in the world.
Brent Tuckerton
Best in the world.
Drew Lissy
Thank you, Mr. Blyton. Zubi. Zubi, Rob. Gonna end up in the studio. Brent looking like Osama.
Brent Tuckerton
Really underestimated my outfit. Like me, brother.
Drew Lissy
Oh, yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
Maggot did it.
Drew Lissy
All right. TG para. Same H K I a 82nd guy as earlier. I want to know if you think my CIB was earned. August 16th. I'm holding a crowd back, and a tally 50 meters away opens up at us. And the crowd I didn't fire. The crowded was too big to be able to see them.
Brent Tuckerton
Hell, yeah. Good. Good for you. That's exactly what you should have done. As an American, I am a big fan of the 82nd Airborne Division. You 100% earn your CIB and I told we had some 82nd guys come to the compound because they were doing some role playing for us. And so we invited them out for, like, a range day and up for role playing. Yeah. Yeah, we have. Thank you for Clarifying that and, and some of them like had this like attitude like ah, we're just in the 82nd. Like you know, I'm in the 82nd. Almost like downplaying it. I was like, guys like, do you know part of the reason why I acted with absolute like any way I wanted in Syria? Because I knew if something happened, the 82nd Airborne was going to fill the sky with 10,000 thousand paratroopers and rain down hell on this country if something goes sideways. Like I don't think they realize like to some degree like how powerful the 82nd Airborne Division is. I love those guys.
Brian Y. Adams
100 and yes, you, you definitely earned yours.
Brent Tuckerton
Absolutely.
Drew Lissy
Cody Bishop, $50. Cody, I sent that super chat and felt like I was trying to make a jokey to my wife that she didn't understand while watching I guess him Nate navigate that whole interaction. Still say you should have cameo as Shane's fake war story telling uncle named Kim Tennity.
Brent Tuckerton
I think, I think he's saying like he was the one that did the tire thing and then watching Nate navigate the whole interaction. I hope so because if so, good on you.
Drew Lissy
Diving b. My last 4th of July deployment was an IA at the unit 2022 and had Chow with now SMA Weimer then drove him to Sului. Nice.
Brent Tuckerton
Next time you're anywhere near Sergeant Major the Army Weimer, ask him about Tim Kennedy and why he interacts with him everyday.
Drew Lissy
American Brent, is it true that if you don't finish out your full 20 with a tier one unit once you've gotten into one means you were kicked out of said unit?
Brent Tuckerton
Absolutely not. You can, you can medically retire out of a tier one unit. D.J. shipley medically retired out of a tier one unit. He was, he wasn't, he wasn't kicked out.
Brian Y. Adams
Just left.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
Before 20.
Brent Tuckerton
But if, if they left. Let's, let's clarify that. But they didn't leave the unit.
Brian Y. Adams
They left.
Brent Tuckerton
I mean they didn't go back.
Brian Y. Adams
They didn't go Army.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah. I mean did they go back? They didn't go back to battalion or go back to group. They just went to cdd. Maybe they took a job.
Brian Y. Adams
Maybe I'm done with the army.
Brent Tuckerton
Medically retire at that point. They can medically retire. I mean they're not, they're not good. If you're a TL, you got 60, 16, 18 years and I think. Yeah, it was just left. Yeah, that'd be crazy.
Brian Y. Adams
Had other things to do.
Brent Tuckerton
Yeah.
Brian Y. Adams
Doing well.
Drew Lissy
Mr.
Brent Tuckerton
Plate tells me they had a good job lined up right doing well, Mr.
Drew Lissy
Plight says Brent. Fred Galvin is the guy whose team had basically the Eddie Gallagher stunt pulled on them. I hope I sent you his book. It's the first true MARSOC to pull.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Drew Lissy
It was a soup sandwich on SOCOM and the USMC side and then ncis.
Brent Tuckerton
I know this. Anything NCIS is a part of is an absolute sandwich. So I already. I'm already on his side.
Drew Lissy
Salvador. Brent. I concur. Get Major Fred Galvin on the program. He wrote a book called A Few Bad.
Brent Tuckerton
Bad Men.
Drew Lissy
Solid, dude. Happy fourth.
Brent Tuckerton
Vanessa. Can you. I'm sure. Can you go ahead and start it? I'm sure you have social media. I'm sure he has LinkedIn. See, we can do about. I mean, that's the second or third request within the hour. Let's can't ignore that.
Drew Lissy
Yo, Ben. Bamboozled says, hey, boys. Why there a woman here and no hot tub? This Sheila is gay. She doesn't like Zen. Thursday is for the boys.
Brent Tuckerton
I. I will challenge you then. You haven't had a snus. If. If you're all in for Zen, snus will ruin you.
Devin
And I am gay.
Drew Lissy
Nighthawk. Nighthawk says Marika. There you go, buddy. Salvador says Brent. Major Fred Galvin would be a great guest.
Brent Tuckerton
There you go. Gosh.
Drew Lissy
He wrote a book called A Few Bad Men. Fun fact. President Abraham Lincoln was an accomplished scholastic wrestler. Three matches. Allegedly lost one match.
Brent Tuckerton
What is a scholastic wrestler?
Drew Lissy
Is he wrestled in college?
Devin
Great question.
Brent Tuckerton
I feel like if someone's like, he's a scholastic wrestler. I was like, oh, like he's on the debate team. Is that a scholastic wrestler? I know. I know. He's an actual wrestler, but yeah. Okay.
Drew Lissy
Like, about 3. 30 of our signers of the Independent Declaration of Independence all went to seminary.
Brent Tuckerton
Really?
Drew Lissy
Yeah.
Brent Tuckerton
Man of faith, if you will. Drew, real quick. You want to take a stab at a words that are used that are almost always thrown out in the wrong way. Separation of church and state. You want to tackle that? Yeah.
Drew Lissy
So there was. I believe it was a Baptist church that was worried about the US Government becoming a church state, because that was an issue in Europe.
Brent Tuckerton
Right.
Drew Lissy
You know, with the Catholic Church or. Or Protestant.
Brent Tuckerton
Or Protestant. Yeah.
Drew Lissy
Or the Anglican Church, Church of England. And so that's why the Pilgrims came over here for that religious freedom.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Drew Lissy
Well, I believe it was Thomas Jefferson wrote him back a letter.
Brent Tuckerton
Tj.
Drew Lissy
That's it. Who basically eased his fears that there would not be a church state. There would be a separation of church and state. And so it was just In a letter. It's not in any laws or in the Constitution or anything like that or any amendments. It was just in a letter basically saying there is not going to be a state church. But in no way, shape or form was that ever to say that the church wasn't going to be able to influence or be a part of government. It just. We weren't going to have an official denomination of Christianity be the official American church.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay, here, here.
Drew Lissy
John D. Oh, another fun fact. Just one more. One more. Joseph's Story. Joseph Story is my favorite Supreme Court justice.
Brent Tuckerton
Okay.
Drew Lissy
He served throughout most of the. I guess about half of the 1800s. It was the youngest Supreme Court justice ever to be elected. And he said this about the second. I mean, the First Amendment. He said that the First Amendment was not. Was never intended to maintain or promote any other world religion such as Mohammedism, which is Islam or Judaism, or infidelism, which is atheist. That's how. Those are the words they used to be an atheist. That the First Amendment is there only to protect the sex sects of Christian, of Christianity, really. So that basically doesn't matter if you're a Methodist or Presbyterian or Pentecostal or Baptist or Catholic. If you are a denomination of Christianity, the First Amendment is there to protect you. It was never to protect all these other world religions which are ruining our country.
Brent Tuckerton
Well, I. I'll steal this from a comedy skit, but it's still. It still reigns true. My favorite thing, what I love about comedy is it's funny usually when there's like a hint of truth in it, right? And this guy's talking about, like the First Amendment. He goes, the first thing our founding father said was they were writing this was like, you know what? You can say anything you want. You say anything you want. Talk a lot of say anything you want. But the second thing we're gonna write is, you better carry a gun. So if you're gonna say whatever you want, you better carry a gun, there's a little bit of. A little bit of truth to that too. That's right. Shall not be in. They've been infringing the hell out of it, haven't they? Oh, Lion Arms over. Lion Arms over there knows a little bit about the INF infringement going on.
Drew Lissy
John D. Says MARSOC team got kicked out because the brass threw them under the bus when they reacted to an ambush, got crucified. An investigative report came out like 10 years later that cleared their actions.
Brent Tuckerton
Love to hear that. I assume that's true. I have to say that But I do, I do assume that's true. And I love that you said that. And that's. And if, and if that's true, that's what those, those boys deserve some vindication for doing the right thing. But as always, you know what's funny about that? I know that a Marsat team got kicked out. It never matters what the allegation is. The allegation always sticks. The retraction or the truth behind that story is never, is never as effective as, as the first allegations lobbed. And I hate that.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, Jay's says Happy 4th to our great country and the amazing freedoms we get to have. Brent, did you get a chance to check out the Sean Ryan podcast with Larry Vickers? If so, what is your opinion on him?
Brent Tuckerton
I have not. And I've been waiting for some travel which is about to happen. And the Larry Vickers episode is. I'm going to watch it. But I know this. In our group chat with a bunch of former guys, I, I don't see any hate thrown his way at all. I don't get to read all the comments but because sometimes there's a lot of comments in there but I would be surprised I haven't seen it. Unlike all the hate that gets thrown at John McPhee constantly, he is, he's a very, very, very unpopular guy at the unit and that should say everything you need to know about him. Do you h. Do you have any input on. On Larry Vickers outside of that?
Brian Y. Adams
I don't before my time and say I, I don't have much light on that.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, everyday American says I asked that question because Matt Pranka said anyone who didn't finish out their time was kicked out or left on bad terms terms. And is that Green Berets was name dropped or GBRS was name dropped?
Brent Tuckerton
I mean I'm friends with Matt. I was a teammate with Matt. Matt says. Matt says a lot of things but I don't want to say like no one better. No one better snip this big. Ah, Brent said something bad about Matt. It's just, it's just not true. True. But Matt Canave can have his opinion. I can kind of prove that's not completely true. But I know why he is saying that and, and there is some truth that not and I would love nothing more to have Matt Prank on the show at some point. I talked to him about it. Hopefully I can talk him into it at some point. He's you guys, don't you guys see the Matt Pranka on social media and kind of like over the top or. Or a snippet of what he said that seems to be over the top. But Matt Pranka is. That is actually. He's a really funny dude. He's a really down to earth guy. And the guys that truly follow him and see everything he says know that. And the other people who just know him by a few. A few outlandish snippets don't really know who Matt Pranka is.
Drew Lissy
Cody Bishop, back in with 50 bucks. Yes. That is what I was talking about. And I'm not the super chat. Autocorrect thinks I'm on the spectrum. Keep up the good work, fellas. Happy Fourth.
Devin
You're in good company.
Brent Tuckerton
Thanks, Cody.
Drew Lissy
All right, we'll impress you two ways there. Tim Kennedy sold me fent.
Brent Tuckerton
He does a lot of things. I don't think he did that, but okay. I love the I'll love it thought.
Drew Lissy
Brendan was in Osama bin Laden outfit.
Devin
First glance, what have we done?
Brent Tuckerton
It's not going away. I sent you a picture of this beforehand. You said nothing of the sorts.
Devin
I didn't see it. I know you too well.
Drew Lissy
Don't know.
Brent Tuckerton
You look terrible. It's all right.
Drew Lissy
All right, nighthawk. Let's all. 50 bucks. Let's all remember, not just the 4th of July, it's our Independence Day. Happy Independence Day, everyone. And remember, y' all gotta roll the R's in Rica.
Brent Tuckerton
All right?
Drew Lissy
There you go, buddy.
Brent Tuckerton
Pulled you right into it, Drew.
Drew Lissy
All right, T Bone. Brent, how many hot dogs could you eat in the 4th of July 4th of July competition? Are you a Joey Chestnut?
Brent Tuckerton
You won't take this.
Devin
How many hot dogs could you.
Brent Tuckerton
You want to take this for before I have to tell on myself?
Devin
Not many.
Brent Tuckerton
Brent can't eat.
Devin
Yeah, he can't eat. I actually made fun of him once upon a time. Me and my girlfriend were out. Brent comes along, we're eating great burgers at an awesome burger establishment. We both finish these beast of burgers. We look over, Brent's halfway there, and he's just choking it down. And he's like, hey, by the way, I have a herniated esophagus.
Brent Tuckerton
I do.
Devin
And there's one of two ways that this go fight too fast. I can take a drink of water, I'll go right down, or I'm going to have to puke all this up. So he looks slightly bulimic. He doesn't mean it, but I'm giving him at least 80% of one hot dog.
Brent Tuckerton
To answer your question, yeah, I don't. I don't know what it is about my metabolism in the past decade. I just, I don't eat a lot. I don't eat a lot at one setting, at one sitting. Like, I want to eat four or five or six times a day. And when it hits me, it hits me hard, and you better feed me in 30 minutes. But I don't eat a lot. It's like, I don't know what happened. My stomach, my stomach's like this big at this point. I just eat a lot of small meals, but I rarely finish a meal. Rarely.
Brian Y. Adams
Yeah, that could be a blessing in disguise.
Brent Tuckerton
Maybe. Except when, when the girl you're, you're trying to date and impress polishes off a half pound burger and, and, and you're halfway into it, you're like, I'm done. It just doesn't look manly. It's not a manly look.
Devin
So that's how I got my credit to be here tonight.
Drew Lissy
But when she makes funny, you just say, what do you want me to look like my brother? Is that what you want?
Brent Tuckerton
There you go.
Devin
Yes.
Drew Lissy
That's so sweet. All right. Creature 96 says this, keep lying to me, baby. Breathe, Lady Slav. I'm not sure what all that means. Happy America Day. From across the pond. Nice.
Brent Tuckerton
Thank you.
Drew Lissy
May you be blessed with bag o grenades and the courage to take on 400 freedom fighters. Love the show.
Brent Tuckerton
That's courage. You know, it's, you know, it's almost more courage to take that on. How much courage does it take to write that and even though it never happened, I don't know if courage is the right word, but it takes audacity. How about that? It takes audacity. That's for sure.
Drew Lissy
That's it.
Brent Tuckerton
For the most audacious thing he's ever done. And it wasn't in combat.
Drew Lissy
You know, probably the Most Special Happy 4th of July Comments come from people from England, you know, from across the pond. I mean, when people from across the pond say Happy fourth, I mean, that's special, is it not?
Brent Tuckerton
It. It is. And I'm, I'm gonna give some insight in this. It's just, it's just my humble opinion. I think they see us and they think they see the freedoms that we have, especially that we, we protect our first amendment right with, with, with tenacity, like we really do. And, and our second amendment right. Even though I just made fun of it, that it's been infringed like hell. But it's like we drew the line and we're like, okay, you've Already infringed on it. You will infringe no more.
Drew Lissy
As long as we're not them.
Brent Tuckerton
And I, I think the UK looks over at us and they're like, I, I wish we were as free as you. Because right now they're living in a nanny state and they can't, they can't post whatever they want. There's no freedom of speech. There are being overrun by, by immigrants and Muslims and they're looking over here and being like, wow, the grass is a lot greener on the other side. And I don't say that with any type of joy. I hate that. I'm a big fan of the UK and England and everything they've done, which is crazy because we went to war with each other and somehow became best friends at some point. And I hate what's going on over there. There.
Drew Lissy
Yeah, even their cops can't carry.
Brian Y. Adams
But I mean, who, who wouldn't want to be a winner?
Brent Tuckerton
What's that said?
Brian Y. Adams
Who wouldn't want to be a winner? I think that's why they.
Brent Tuckerton
Everyone loves wins, right? Everyone loves a winner.
Drew Lissy
Well, that's the last super chat.
Devin
Light them up, boys.
Brent Tuckerton
Drew, hold on real quick. Let's go back to the Instagram. Let's see if there's anything that we had missed, see what we got. There actually is one more thing I want to talk about, and I bet it's that last video right there.
Drew Lissy
Okay, here we go.
Doll Revere
Not every mission went well. You know, we had, we were bringing in some buses through Blackgate and there was a miscommunication and a, a commander at that gate wouldn't let those buses in. And everybody thought that it was me like that Tim Kennedy was the one that had set all of these buses up. This was absolutely our, our operation. But guess who are the people that were making the, the calls to link up. This is at the highest level of, of government where like the most elite commanders on the planet are saying, who's getting on these things? And trying to communicate that down to a ground captain or a ground like Colonel. That's coming from like a four star joint level is where wires get crossed.
Brent Tuckerton
Right.
Doll Revere
And so these buses get kicked back out into the city and you know, all those people got tortured and killed by the Taliban, but you didn't have time. Not every mission went well. You know, we had, we're bringing in some buses through black gates.
Brent Tuckerton
Let's talk about that just real quick. I've been on some phone calls of people who were part of that. And let's shed Some light on that real quick. Of course, you weren't a part deeply of that because you were there barely for 24 hours. So there's no way you could have been deeply a part of anything. You hopped on something that would have been a great photo op and ended up being something that blew up in your face. There was a massive security threat that you wouldn't have known about because you're not tied into anything, and you were barely there. But they knew there was a massive security threat of suicide bombers. And everyone who came on that tarmac had white wristbands or indicators of some sorts that they had come through the checkpoint. When it was found out that these guys essentially smuggled seven busloads of people, and they were trying to get on planes with abs, with no wristbands, which means they absolutely got. They did not get checked in any way. A colonel came up and had questions. Why wouldn't you have questions for the security of the base that you're in charge of? And if someone would have probably had a cooler head and talked to this colonel and said, hey, this is. This is what's going on. This is who these people are. Let's just talk about it. Tim Kennedy basically had this do you know who I am? Moment and inserted himself and pissed off the colonel. And so the colonel base is like, well, do you know who I am, what rank I have and what I can do? And sent the buses back. You want to be a dick? That's. That's what happens. And so Tim Kennedy inserted himself and effed up the whole situation. Not my words, other people's words, but here's the craziest part of this whole story. He said they got sent back out and tortured and killed. You want to know what happened to all of those people in the buses that were turned around?
Brian Y. Adams
Absolutely.
Brent Tuckerton
They were eventually put on planes and they made it back to wherever they were going just fine. That was a lie. They didn't get tortured and killed. All of them eventually made it on the planes because they went back through the gate the right way, because they were who they were supposed to be, got on. What an absolute. I try to be professional. What an absolute piece of shit thing to say. To say that this colonel turned these people around and the blood of seven busloads of people are on his hands. I mean, if that truly happened, that colonel has to go to sleep at night and deal with this. Except for the fact they all made it out okay, don't worry, I'll bring receipts. There's more where that Came from. I am now I'm telling. I'm on a war path. There will be another episode soon, and we are going to hopefully have the same effect the first podcast has. Because the first podcast, really, it blew up and everyone got on it and everything is happening now because. Because of our first podcast and. And I'm not looking for recognition, but all those guys are great. You know, basically saying, like. Like, hey, like, the antihero podcast had the balls to do this. And we appreciate that. And I do. I'm very grateful for that. Nate does it all the time. I'm grateful for it. David Hook said does it all the time. Grateful for it. And they. They took the flag and they can. And they continued and brought me more information as well than I would have never had. So I'm grateful for that. But this is far from over. There's so much more that are. Blow your mind and just. Just hang on for a little bit more. It's coming.
Drew Lissy
Mr. Polite says that's why you look so good, Brent, about your belly. That and the cigars. Remember that all of the founding fathers were under the age of 40. You should look up the Andre Jackson story of him beating an attempted assassin with his walking stick. Dang.
Brent Tuckerton
I think that's crazy. If you think about it, assassins had to close. You think about, like, how amazing our constitution are is how amazing like, the Declaration of Independence is. And what it really took, the balls it took for those guys to be like, you know what we're gonna tell the world superpower right now? Go f yourself. Don't mess with us when we're a bunch of farmers. Like, we had no bit. We had no business having that type of swagger. Like, we really didn't. And all these guys are in their 30s or under 40s. Some of them, I'm sure, are in their 20s. $veer. See if we can get the thief. We get the ages of the Declaration of Independent signers, and a lot of them lost their life. And if not lost their life, I don't get dramatic about it. Some lost their life. A handful lost all their possessions. Yeah, all their possessions over this. And there's. I. I do. I wish. I wish there was some way. You want to talk about a time machine? I wouldn't use it to take. To take my really cool sniper weapon. Go back and do work on the British. There's no need. We already won that war. We know how that ends. I would use that time machine to go back in time and show these amazing men what their courage actually became. Could you imagine, like if you could tell them what America turns into and show them not the bad stuff. Yeah, we're not perfect, but if you want to show all the founding further fathers. Hey, check this out. Check out what America becomes. I don't even know if they could fathom it or believe it. Right.
Devin
Average age was 44. Youngest Edward Rutledge, 26. Oldest Benjamin Franklin at 70. But they average 44 years old.
Brent Tuckerton
Wow. He said no one was under 40. Don't make a spot check. Yeah, don't worry. I've had to eat crow live on this podcast as well. When I said a. A. A telescope could see the American flag. And then someone. Someone told me that on the moon. And then someone told me that it couldn't.
Drew Lissy
So great little story here. TJ Paris says JRTC 2019. I was hit and my medic was a Brit. We got to talking and he said the best time he had in America was a fourth of July party. I died laughing.
Brent Tuckerton
Well, check out the irony of that, right? Yeah, I love it. Did you see that video I sent you from Sean Ryan show? Which Will you send me some stuff? Which one? The SAS guy? Yeah, we're talking about that earlier. Yeah, I watched. I watched that snippet. Yeah, we talked about it. Where were you? What was that? Yeah, probably making burgers or. Oh, gosh. Yeah. Planting, planting, planting. Thomas Jefferson, third President of the United States. You are not. You're planting bullets at the end of red, white and blue rainbows, you little colonial leprechaun.
Drew Lissy
Look at zesty colonial blue and not red. Hightower says, obviously, obviously, Europe does not want to be free. If they. If they. If they don't stand up, then what else is there to do? They must not want it bad enough.
Brent Tuckerton
I know. It's. It's. It's a whole different topic, but you brought it up. I'll talk about it real quick. I've always. I'm. I. I may see. I am a supporter of Ukraine. Ukraine should absolutely fight the Russians. But that's a Europe problem. And if Europe doesn't want to fight that problem, then. Then why should we? Europe could easily band together and whip Russia's ass. Whip Russia's ass so fast and make their head spin, but they don't. So. Yeah, I agree. You gotta want it sometimes. Sometimes you got to tell your kid no.
Drew Lissy
What are the outro songs tonight?
Devin
All right, the winner is Johnny Cash, ragged old flight, 200 bucks.
Brent Tuckerton
Hell yeah.

Drew Lissy
We need to do a duel.
Devin
A duel? All right.
Drew Lissy
Somebody in the chat said there somebody needs to do duels with sim rounds. Take your paces, boys.
Brent Tuckerton
All right, I'll tell you a funny story real quick about taking paces. One of those Benghazi boys that I said was a very good friend of mine, Brian, you might have been there for this. Okay. Did an old school duel. Pace off with Tim Tebow. Yeah. Tim Tebow wanted some of that heat. He got it and he. And he got it. They took seven paces with sim guns. Turned around and no chance. Yeah, And Tim Tebow is a competitor. He loves the win. Didn't live that. Didn't win that one, did he? No, he didn't. No. I got shot bad. Johnny Cash. Ragged old flag is the winner. It gets played first. Oh, don't you do that to me. Is anyone connected to the Bluetooth? We have this problem all the time.
Drew Lissy
I'm just glad I'm not in that problem. There you go on the technical side.
Brent Tuckerton
Jumped right on there.
Drew Lissy
Never in that.
Brent Tuckerton
All right. I ain't mad at you.
Devin
There it is. Are you ready for our chair?
Brent Tuckerton
Tell us, Johnny.
Devin
Do it ready. Sons of liberty, daughters of sin, bottoms up, let freedom begin.
Brent Tuckerton
I said, your old flagpole is lean a little bit.
Brian Y. Adams
That's a ragged old flag you got hanging on it.
Brent Tuckerton
He said, have a seat. And I sat down. Is this the first time you've been to our little town? I said, I think it is. He said, I don't like to brag, but we're kind of.
Drew Lissy

I'll go read it. I'm gathered. I'm still got. I'll still gather as much information as I can. It ain't too late to give me any more information. Nighthawk. Interesting history. Fun fact.

Devin
I love the. The Peka pills.
Brent Tuckerton

Devin
Sissy has some guns on her. Is she single?
Brent Tuckerton
No. That's not my sister. She does have some guns on her. He wanted me to say that word so much. Retired army guy said it twice. Retired army guy. You're not getting it. Yeah. Sit in the. The hat. The. The laughing face.
