All right. Welcome back to another Thursday night live with we got Sunny from Patreon. We got a packed house over here on the couch. We got Magnets older brother Bill. Well, I believe it is. We got Jason and we got Magnet, the little brother. And of course making it all happen. We got Drew. We got a lot of fun things to cover. This is going to be a little bit of a different live and I hope you guys like it. Let's go. Sa. All right. Right off the bat, I'm gonna tell you why I decided to do a little bit different of a life tonight. There's just, there's a lot going on in the world. There's, there's always something, there's always something serious to cover. Every week there will be something serious to cover. I almost hate doing it this week. There's, there's a lot of big news stories that, that we should talk about. The Australian SAS guy, the most decorated war hero in their country just got arrested for war crimes, which I'm pretty sure is fake and nonsensical. According to. To my sources, you know, we had a down pilot that America moved almost literal mountains to go get one guy. No, no, no other country does that. We got the. The lady that got arrested who gave a lot of the information to. To the. To Harper for the Fort Braille Fort Bragg cartel book. She just got arrested, as she should have been, but Seth Harper should have been arrested with her. So there's a lot of things that we can cover, but guess what? Next week's gonna be, you know, a lot of other things. And other. Other podcasts either have covered those or will cover them. And I don't know, just felt a little bit like a. A heavy week publicly. And personally, I said, you know what? This is what I'm going to do Feel Good podcast. As I was looking for things on Instagram, I ran across. I ran across one reel of this guy doing something good. And I was like, you know what? That's what I needed to see. Like this. There's still good people in this world doing good things. After I liked it and I sent it to Drew to. Because we're just going to cover one. It's now in my algorithm just off that one share. And guess what? Other videos I got video after video after video after video of good people doing good things. And I was like, why don't. Why don't we ever do an episode of that? Just completely of good people doing good things. Doesn't have to be drama, doesn't have to be another war. Doesn't have to be any of those things. So I said, that's what I'm gonna do. And then after that, I thought a little harder, and I said, you know what? I'm gonna put my money where my mouth is. The form is already on Patreon. If you go to our Patreon, I literally just created. I think it's. I think it's called the Do Good Fund. Okay. And here's what I'm gonna do. If you sign up or you're part of our Patreon and you go to the. The Do Good, I think it's called Do Good Things. You tell me what you would do with $1,000 to help somebody out to change their life. Doesn't have to change their life. A thousand dollars probably is going to change anyone's life. It might, depending on, you know, where they're at. It might just change their day. It might change your day. I don't care what you do with it, but it. It. But that's the intention of the money. So you go to our Patreon, you tell me what you are going to do with that money and how that's going to affect someone's life positively. And if you win, I'll send you a thousand bucks and just send me a picture of you doing it. And that's. That's what we're gonna do tonight. What do you think about that, Sonny?

Summary

Tier1 Podcast: "The Feel Good Episode | Tier1 Live"

Host: Brent Tucker
Date: April 12, 2026

Overview

This special episode of the Tier1 Podcast breaks from the usual deep-dives into special operations, world events, and weighty current affairs to focus on the positive. Host Brent Tucker, a former Delta Force operator, brings together friends and regulars—Sonny, Magnet, Magnet’s brother Bill, Jason, and producer Drew—for an uplifting live show centered on acts of kindness, heroic everyday moments, and celebrating good people doing good things. The conversation is interspersed with humorous banter, nostalgic reminiscing, community shout-outs, and a new Patreon initiative: The "Do Good Fund," aimed at seeding more good in the world.

Major Themes and Sections

1. Shifting the Focus: Why a Feel-Good Episode

[01:26 - 06:02]

Brent intentionally departs from heavy news (recent military controversies, arrests, etc.).
The world feels heavy, and Brent wants to provide counter-programming: “I just felt like a heavy week publicly and personally...I said, 'You know what? This is what I'm going to do—Feel Good podcast.'" ([04:14])
Triggered by a random Instagram video of someone doing good—reminder that there are still good people in the world.
Launches the “Do Good Fund” on Patreon:
- Community members suggest ways to use $1,000 to help someone.
- Winner gets the money to enact their idea; only catch is to send a picture of the act.

Quote:
"When a whole community comes together and gives $10 a month, we can do things like this...When we pool our resources together, we're going to do something cool as a community." — Brent ([06:27])

2. Community Banter & Language Across Generations

[09:48 - 16:42]

Lighthearted discussion about old sayings and generational slang (“get to steppin’”, “keep it moving, pal”, “perpetrating”, “asshat”, “tomfoolery” vs modern “capping”, “no cap”, “same-same”, “sus”).
Humor from integrating race/culture in comedy and language, referencing playful "delegations" (Black Delegation vs. Caucasian Caucus).
Nostalgia for garage bands and rock music culture.
“Let’s get back to garage bands…Parents, you’re going to have to put up with that. Yeah, but you know, that’s what makes good music.” — Brent ([15:39])

3. Super Chats Q&A, Audience Participation, and Inside Jokes

[16:56 - 46:55]

Continual interaction with the live chat and Patreon supporters.
Signature podcast humor and camaraderie (e.g., challenges with the couch size, T-shirts under beards, "you can't tourniquet the taint" [17:23], and “beer money” for missed raffles).
Listeners suggest more old school slang to bring back (“drats”, “booyah”, “grody”, “cha”, “swell”, “square”, etc.)
Technical discussions pop up: bullpup rifles, Aimpoint vs. EOTech (“I like them both…hate not giving you an actual answer, but I like them both” — Brent [25:58]), pistol caliber carbines for home defense, SIG vs. Glock debate (“Glock, we need a big sponsor.” — Brent [51:58])
Reflections on fatherhood and the best things to teach kids ("the Gospel of Jesus Christ" — Drew [43:06])
Planning future fun projects (trooper games; collaboration suggestions with YouTubers).

4. Acts of Kindness and Good Deeds: Curated Video Reactions

[29:59 onward, recurring through the show]

Athletic Sportsmanship

[30:29]

Youth baseball: after hitting a batter in the head, the runner consoles the tearful pitcher.
“Two kids got raised right...Sportsmanship is something from the 80s or 90s that we have to bring back.” — Brent ([30:59])

Humanity in Everyday Emergencies

[64:13]

Bystanders rescue a woman trapped in a burning car.
“Complete strangers. Black, white, brown, old, young...giving it hell. All under the common cause of doing good.” — Brent ([65:12])

Younger Generation Doing Right

A football team captain forgoes the "cool" date to take a girl with Down syndrome to prom.
“Not just a nice gesture. Rightfully, it cost him a memorable night…But to him, what he was gaining by doing that was so much more.” — Brent ([67:33])

One Person Setting an Example

Barber gives a free haircut to a kid in need; fans covering a child in the rain with their jackets; young men thanking veterans at a ballgame.
“All it took was one guy doing something manly and the rest followed suit ...that’s how movements start.” — Brent ([71:23])

Service & Sacrifice

9/11 police officer John Perry cancels his retirement to help and loses his life ([77:37]).
Father saves son from burning race car (“I did not care that there were flames going on…I had a polo shirt and shorts. The only thing that I was concerned about was getting my son out of that car.” — Dean Jones, relayed by Brent [105:25])
Police officer’s compassionate response to a veteran on the suicide hotline ([112:11]).

The Ripple Effect

Discussion on how small good deeds create larger waves in the world. “A tiny ripple can start a tsunami…We want to build a community like that.” — Brent ([83:13])

5. Reflections on Masculinity, Service, and Challenging Stereotypes

[107:04]

Brent pushes back on the “toxic masculinity” theme, noting that men disproportionately fill roles that keep society running: garbage workers, electricians, linemen, plumbers, etc.—and that it’s okay to celebrate men doing good.
“This country continues to run because of men…99% of garbage workers are men…It’s not a bad thing to be a man. But…the only people who can hold other men accountable, are other men.”

6. Patreon "Do Good Fund" Initiative

[76:00, reminders throughout episode]

Ongoing reminders for listeners to participate in the $1,000 “Do Good Fund” on Patreon:
- Suggest an idea to positively impact someone—a family member, stranger, veteran, etc.
- Selected idea is funded, with follow-up for the community.

Quote:
"If you have opportunity, do something—no matter how small. A tiny ripple can start a tsunami."
