How She Turned Her Struggles Into a Thriving Business
So, the actual reason why they miss their Marine days is that they didn't need to think for themselves. They were told what to do, when to do it... And then they find themselves in real life, where they need to make their own decisions. Man, I guess anyone would miss that! I hate thinking!
I appreciate your perspective. It’s always nice to hear counter-arguments. It feels a bit sacrilegious to speak so matter-of-factly on something you haven’t experienced yourself, but I will agree - I do sometimes hate thinking 🤔 😂
I do! SEMPER FI MY BROTHERS. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
It’s called drama bonding
BROTHER HOOD…. NEIGHBOR HOOD…. No matter what your institutionalized..
It's the brother hood
I spent over 15 years of my life in the army, towards the end I was getting bitter, my body was broken, endured many hard days and was discharged on a medical because IED’s are unforgiving. I miss it every single day, because of the men and women to my left and right in front and behind, had my back as I had theirs and they were closer to me than my own flesh and blood. The army was the best thing I ever did and I miss my brothers and sisters every day. That will be the number one argument you hear about the military is your buddies, your family that is closer than your own biological family. The best people in the world are veterans, soldiers, marines, squids (navy), and some airmen. Sorry Air Force, but the first time I ever got shot at was by you guys, and I still hold the grudge because you guys have a hard time identifying friendly’s, even though you guys have all of the best updated and current technology while the army and the Navy and the Marines get your hand, me downs, but yet I have never been shot at by a squid or a devil dog because they can do target identification without the fancy equipment
James, this is one of the best comments i’ve ever received. thank you for your service brother. i’m in your debt.
His last name is Spanish for "lettuce" 🤘
🥬
Great episode! My favorite part was definitely hearing about how excited he was to be deployed. It’s amazing how many brave men and women we have willing to serve our country!
Well said bro, we’re lucky 💪🏻🇺🇸
Nah brother you were recruit lettuce it was close enough 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Yup 😅 Spanish for lettuce 😊
Well said!
Awesome, Michael
thanks brother 💯💯

If God was the most important thing to you, you’d be appearing on a podcast from your monestary.
weird
@ yeah, moral dissonance IS weird
I hope this is an encouragement to take the time to disconnect and get one on one with God in the middle of our busy days…it’s so necessary.
Yay Connor! 👍
Such a good guy! 🙂
He’s big in saying time after time ‘I don’t care what others think of me’ as he appears wherever he can and makes videos for others. As ugh he’s a beer drinker
Hmmm… I’m not sure I agree with your comment but I really appreciate you leaving your thoughts. Just because he’s making videos doesn’t mean he cares about what others think - I think he’s doing it to inspire others. Maybe I’m thinking about it wrong.
Love the honesty in this conversation
thank you so much 🤝🏻 just trying to figure it all out
You’re a true brother
You were made for this, pumped you are continuing to build it up!
thanks brother ❤️
You guys are awesome, Happy New Year! Loved the rock climbing analogy. That rock may have gotten you where you're at, but it may be time to find another one. Gotta keep moving forward.
i appreciate you more than you know BP! 💪🏻🙏🏻 i really do.
No better duo!
Yes! It’s very important to have casual conversations with the Lord. Therefore, you can grow your relationship with Christ!
So good to see Manny back again Loved the Fishing story 🤣
My one disagreement with a concept discussed (generally) is I believe in getting absurdly specific on goals. I want to make this amount by this date, and here are my quarterly target to hit that. I want to take my girl out on this exact day at this time on tuesday every night to improve our relationship.
I agree that there is value in setting very specific goals. Sometimes general goals are too broad to follow through on, or too small to encourage radical change. The danger of setting very specific goals are the feelings of failure we may experience when circumstances outside of our control prevent us from achieving them in the quantity or timing that we had set out to.
Agree with both of the above. Love you boys
Loved Mannys analogy about checking maps
are significantly reduce intake of it.
As you dog, you gotta stop playing video games hahaha
One day you are going to release an episode that will change the life of some random person, I just know it. Keep on keeping on, man!
you rock thank you SM ❤️💪🏻
Manny, if it makes you feel any better, I think very highly of you!
Thank you brother - love you. Congratulations on getting married!
Keep it up Mike! You're just going to move further forward in 2025
Appreciate you 🤝🏻 thank you as always for the support. Can’t wait to watch BP grow further in 2025 💪🏻
Mike, if you’re ever hesitating to make another video, don’t! I think I speak for all 958 of us, we are pumped every time you put up a new video!
You’re the man! You guys keep me going! 💪
Love the humility with this show. I have zero doubt that you will continue to excel and it’s not because you are extremely articulate, or ask amazing questions (which you do), but because you are committed to decades not days.
decades not days 💯 it’s HARD - but worth it.
I can’t believe some fool chased you, gotta get strapped up
you’re telling me.
Incredible episode, I love these solo episodes
thank you brother
Fire
Ayo the mittens 😂
Stellar negotiating skills to get the hotel for $50
☠️☠️☠️
Kirby in the back! 😂
Portugués, and he missed that shot
facts
I disagree, opening up to emotions stricken ones view under false pretenses that limit true aspirations by the left hemisphere’s brain of logic, one’s true mystical moment is when the “feeling” of a desire is created through one’s imagination is of the true heart of divine which isn’t the physical heart of flesh but the true heart of all that is in the right hemisphere brain of godliness! Albert Einstein believed in relativity and bending of energy wave vibrations, another word’s binary theory! Point made!
Damn!!! What a nuanced and well-informed take… Wow. Thank you for sharing! I’d love to have this level of insight on basically everything I post 🤣 Consider subscribing!
In Spanish😂
Gayest shit I ever heard
You always find such incredible guests with such incredible stories. Blue lobsters, professors teaching in prisons, people 20+ years sober, people whose comfort movie genre is horror. You never cease to surprise me with the guests you have on, and this one is no different. Kudos to you both!
Thank you so much brother ❤️ man, I appreciate you. Happy holidays dude 🎄
This may be your best episode to date! Keep ‘em coming!
you da man! THANK YOU! more to come 💪🏻💪🏻
Wow thats fire - A deep dissatisfaction with your current state.
All I know is being here hahah - loved that comment
Mike incredible questions, and you are really continuing to improve and staying on topics just long enough to capture the audience but keeping the guest moving on when you sense we need different information.
gotta be one of my favorite comments ever. striving to get better man
Fantastic episode
thank you brother
There is only one way I know of to overcome the fear of death. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. - John 3:16 Follow Jesus
Fight the dying of the light. Strive to hold on and cherish every moment. That is the celebration of life. Fearing death is like dying over and over and missing out on life.
