Well said... seriously eye opening stuff. This is why I stopped netflix and tv. Story telling of real heroes is way better. People who are actually making a difference.
@@korbendallas1014 its so hard for me to watch/listen/read anything that's not nonfiction, I feel guilty, wasting time I could b learning from people like these. Good on you guys
Jocko, this is perhaps the most profound podcast. As the son of a 1/7 Cav soldier who didn’t come home from Vietnam, much respect and love to the good Captain and to you Jocko. Matt Montana, son of Jimmy Montana.
There are definitely a bunch of these I keep saying, this is the most profound, heartwrenching, interesting thing I've ever heard. It's such a privilege to have stuff like this we can turn to at a moment's notice instead of the shit pumped out on the daily by people who know nothing, care nothing except the almighty dollar. Stay up. Sorry to hear about your dad, true heroes. Be proud of that.
I feel you on that brother. Im only a little better but my inner bitch is now in the cross hairs. Its amazing how pathetic you realize you are if you admit it. Its very difficult to feel sorry for myself now for sure. Thanks Jocko
This is why I seldom watch regular TV anymore as so little if any substance..thank you all for your hard work and dedication to speading these amazing messages..
I did a book report on "I'm No Hero" in 6th grade, it was the first book I ever remember reading that wasn't in the fantasy/sci fi genre. Salute to this man.
I've listened to this podcast twice. Blown away... because of Jocko I push things hard and he is right.. it's the little decisions. Thank you Jocko! I have done something big in my life since finding you. I look up to you and appreciative I found you. Mr. Plumb, to you im not sure I have enough words to convey what gratitude, humility, perseverance, and just looking at things differently because of your wise words. Thank you for hanging on, your lot in life was in comparison harder than any of us. Gives great perspective. I can only hope I could shake your hand one day and thank you for your contribution to this thing called life! Thank you both for collaborating on this cast!
Jocko I'm so grateful finding you and your podcast. I just recently heard you for the first time on Joe Rogan's podcast and I can happily say I'm on my road to sobriety from opiates ever since listening to some of your stuff. Thank you and I am looking forward to more awesome podcasts to come!
Rob Hanzlik good luck, I support your decision. I just had a friend OD on heroin recently, it sucks to lose someone for something so silly. When it gets tough just think of your loved ones who will miss you when you're gone. take care
Rob Hanzlik Stick with it and on some days you will struggle to get through the next hour sober. If you have to think in minutes " for the next 5 minutes Im going to stay sober" then do it. It has been so long for me I cant remember the exact details but I know in the beginning, I was looking from hour to hour and its not easy but it can be done. It has been 23 years for me.
It gets easier every day. I was on opiates for about 7 years, the last 3 were heroin. I can say once you make it a week, then a month, a year, it just keeps getting easier and better.
Great to hear, Rob. Every day sober is a great day. I pray you do not relapse. IF it does happen, just start over. Don't EVER give up. Pick up Jocko's book "Discipline Equals Freedom: Field Manual". It is a resource that will inspire you and help you in your sobriety. Rock on, brother. God bless!!!
Charlie that day you came home and landed at Clark AFB. I was only about 5 but ... I was there ... My Father was an Air Force F4 pilot stationed at Clark. I was very young ... this is one of the very few memories I have of that time. I remember you all getting off the air plane ... and there was a big huge inflatable tub ... they dunked you all in it. I remember everyone so happy to see you all. Thank you for your service and your 6 years in horror.
This gentleman was incredibly inspiring to listen to. Completely mesmerizing because of how calm and comfortable with himself he is. I very rarely sit through several hours of a full podcast, but it was hard to walk away from Capt. Plumb.
Whenever I'm feeling down, stressed, anxious, I just find any UA-cam video or podcast featuring Charlie Plumb. All problems solved (sometimes you need a reminder about "choices").
I like listening to these podcasts, lets me laugh at myself because I think I have had some bad days and I realize I really dont got it that bad and it makes me appreciate what I call bad days
Charlie Plumb is a true inspiration. That old saying," a wise man once said", well that wise man is Charlie Plumb.The way he has remained so optimistic when stripped of everything from being a POW for 6 years to coming back home and learning his wife wants a divorce and is engaged to another man, he never let a negative situation break him. He always was making the best of what he had. This is very inspiring. What Jocko starts reading from Charlie's book at about 2:45 on into the podcast are important lessons that can apply to everyone.
How many of you here have a newfound discipline all of a sudden after starting to watch and listen to jocko? . I've been trying to get my shit together for years and now all of a sudden im GETTING AFTER IT!
Every day ~ on rare occasions I'll let a day go inbetween....but no excuses at the end of the day if I don't get it done...have to make up for the next day
my dad grew up in small town southern Illinois. He was a paper boy. He's an night shift ER doctor. Paper boys are a rare breed. They are disciplined, they take initiative. It seems like it is the first symptom of success.
BayBeats831 I like the books for intense workouts. Makes me feel motivated and keeps me from being weak. But I like the conversations when I am driving, eating.
These Veterans are rockstars in my eyes. Lets just say theyre part of the greatest generation also. We need to create a National holiday specifically for the Vietnam veteran. It wont make up for the viel behavior they endured when they came home but it would be a start
I agree, it's nice to have Veterns day but we should have a day for all medal of Honor heroes and also POW day, whether it's for WWI and WWII POWs or Korea, Vietnam or the Middle East POWs... these guys need a whole day just for them! Absolute legends for being able to survive for so long in such horrible conditions
We don't need a useless holiday to honor them. Instead of showing them how grateful you are one day a year how about shaking a veterans hand when you see one and actually start talking to them. A holiday and a meaningless comment on social media once a year isn't honoring anyone but yourself. Go to your local vfw and buy a round of beers for the vets and ask them their story if you actually give a damn about them.
I think the thing that surprises me the most about Jocko is he's a really good story narrator, even when reading right out of Charlie's book, really helps pull you into the story
This man embodies the notion of "class act" like very few people ever have. What an example he is for all of us. Thank you sir, and thank you Jocko for bringing men like CPT Plumb and their stories to us.
This is an example of Jocko showing warmth and friendliness out of respect for the harshness this man has experienced. Like This man has experienced enough toughness, from here in nothing but warmth and smiles for this man. Respect that completely.
The history of air warfare during the Korean and Viet Nam wars are an interesting history. It should be taught in all American history and political science class. The many facets help us understand the nature of war, the nature of politics, and human nature.
Charlie is the most amazing public speaker I have ever seen. I saw him speak at an FMC national meeting in Vegas several years ago! Had the opportunity to talk to him and have him sign my book. Only to find out he flies in to MY small town airport in Marshall, MO several times every year. On this Veterans Day thank you Charlie and every VET that has ever SERVED!
This podcast changed my life. It isn't like I was code white to this point as I was raised by a WW2 vet who lived through a very tough 4 years of fighting and starvation/challenge of the dirty 30's before that. But the way Charlie and the others persevered, adapted and overcame their circumstances is a mental, emotional and soul level grounding for me going forward. Perspective. Thank you Jocko, Echo and of course, Charlie.
That was a great conversation ,thanks Jocko and echo Charles for the free entertainment and lessons in greatness. With your experience and the subjects you talk about I see you as a modern day Marcus Aurelius.
Fascinating, riveting and humbling from beginning to end. Thank you for your service. I was a teen during Viet Nam and I can tell you, I was all about the POW’S. I had a metal bracelet with my POW’S name and date he went missing. In everything I’ve ever owned, I regret that bracelet going missing. Family heirlooms included. That bracelet meant the most. I can relate to these guys. Every one of them but especially the POW’S. As a survivor of childhood sexual abuse from the age of 4 until 19 I was in a battle for my personal safety and mental health. I also had to look out for other children within range of the different sexual predators. I fought them physically and played mental mind games with them on a daily basis. I did everything but tell. Today? I’m 62 and I’ve lived my life with my disabilities from living those years and I have tried to make those bastards regret the day they let me live. It’s a battle. I win some and I lose some but even in a loss those bastards don’t forget they had a battle with me. Just every day situations in life. I have to say I have felt overwhelmed and beaten down. Watching these guys encourages me to get up and get on with the next thing. Grace and Godspeed in Jesus name ~ CG
Another amazing one. My second time watching it. I have nothing but respect for these heroes. The Alcatraz 11 - Shu, Johnson, Denton, Stockdale, Rutledge, Jenkins, Mcnight, Mulligan, Tanner, Storz only one that didn't make it back and Coker. Captain Plum with a great story and all the other POWs that endured torture and mistreatment while in captivity for our freedom. We shall never forget any of these great men. We shall continue remembering these brave heroes for generations to come.
Just listened to this podcast today. I very much enjoyed hearing his story and it’s truly an inspiration. Have been listening to 1-2 podcasts a day at work. Love them.
This guy has lived a rare life, most people including me don't know real difficulty and it really puts into perspective that we just shouldn't complain. We are free to act and improve at every moment, having a strong mind is something that will always serve you. Many people talk about there problems in such whining and weak ways like how hard it is for them when a man like this explains real difficulty in such a calm and humble way with no intention of making people feel sorry for him, just explaining it like it is, I have definitely learned some perspective from hearing Charlie plumbs story, very incredible stuff. It sounds like a film how hard it actually was being a POW and it's not every day that you get to hear from a person who actually lived through this. Jockos podcast has made me respect the military mindset / mental strength / discipline in so many ways, I am not involved with the military in any way, but I'm very thankful for Jocko and Echo putting out these great podcasts. Charlie plumbs story is awesome and he definitely deserves respect and recognition.
Can you imagine comparing getting shot out of the sky behind enemy lines, surley to be captured by enemy forces to the same amount of impact of life as someone loosing a job in the civi world? This remark stayed with me. The humbleness of this man is amazing. His story is remarkable, truly a testament to how strong humans can be both emotionally and physically. Wow. God bless sir🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Charlie is correct.He is no hero, but far more epic than that. I pray that I might become half as positive as that man.Terrible what he had to endure for years and yet remained stayed strong. Thanks Jocko for a wonderful guest.
Thanks again Jocko! I have the utmost respect for military personnel and an extreme amount of respect for Vietnam Veterans specifically. I have a few cousins that have served in the Vietnam conflict and appreciate their humble nature because of what they had gone through. I learned of your podcast on the Joe Rogan podcast and am grateful that I did. Many of your guests have opened up my eyes even further than before by sharing their experiences. Thank you to Captain Plumb for telling your story.
He’ll get a bunker in Austin? Naw just playing jocko, man I’m envious please keep doing what you doing... and to this for sure umm idk what to call him , helluva man... mr. I don’t want none of that Hanoi Hilton, 6 years mane.., make jail look like paradise
Too pussy and weak minded to push myself to do sports as a kid. Joined an adult wrestling class and got my first ever takedown in king of the ring today. Also knocked out all my graduate papers and household errands. You’ve helped me a ton Jocko and echo. I really appreciate you guys
This is such a great presentation of how these men survived and in many ways thrived under such horrible circumstances. I know training time is so valuable for so many of the skills that need to be crammed in before a deployment, but it seems the lessons these men learned on how to survival mentally in these conditions would be priceless to any soldier or sailor that might end up in enemy hands.
I can't believe I used to be impressed by celebrities.
This one of the best comments I've ever seen on UA-cam.
Well said... seriously eye opening stuff. This is why I stopped netflix and tv. Story telling of real heroes is way better. People who are actually making a difference.
@@korbendallas1014 its so hard for me to watch/listen/read anything that's not nonfiction, I feel guilty, wasting time I could b learning from people like these. Good on you guys
Best👏comment👏ever!!!
Nonfiction is hard to go back to once one becomes aware of history. There’s a time and a place, but stories like this are the greatest ever told.
I really appreciate Jocko's respect for Captain Plumb, always calling him Sir.
True class, respect for your elders!
Jocko, this is perhaps the most profound podcast. As the son of a 1/7 Cav soldier who didn’t come home from Vietnam, much respect and love to the good Captain and to you Jocko. Matt Montana, son of Jimmy Montana.
Respect from Ireland 🇮🇪. You dad sounds amazing!! May he rest in peace ✌

"These people are a thousand years behind in blindfolds!"
Absolutely love that quote from the book!!
Great podcast
Discovered Jocko about 2 months ago and I say "get after it" about 50 times a day now. Thank you Charlie for your service and immense sacrifice.
Ryan Riddle GOOD! Now back to the book!
I'm always talking about getting after it after finding these podcasts lol
@@AceAbm Me three.
How many times a day you sayin "get after it" or, maybe, even better, "good", here recently?
@ Even more now. The word “Good” is now tattooed on my right arm.
Just wanted to say thanks for the consistent motivation. My mental and physical performance has infinitely improved since finding this podcast.
I feel you on that brother. Im only a little better but my inner bitch is now in the cross hairs. Its amazing how pathetic you realize you are if you admit it. Its very difficult to feel sorry for myself now for sure. Thanks Jocko
Feel the same way fellas. Stay up, keep moving forward.

Sitting in my hotel the night before MEPS, kickass time to find this
Did you make it
Did you survive? Lol
Yes= your enlistment stop
Amazed by the leadership and organization in the P.O.W. camp.
Whenever I'm feeling down, stressed, anxious, I just find any UA-cam video or podcast featuring Charlie Plumb. All problems solved (sometimes you need a reminder about "choices").
This man is the epitome of resilience.
Incredible. These men and their unbelievable spirit are absolutely astonishing.
Charlie Plumb just blows me away. What a soul. What a man. What a hero. Here's to making it count for all of those who didn't make it home.
Every time you think your life is hard......LMAO...IT'S NOT THAT HARD compared to what many other have gone through....PERSPECTIVE.
Right, the bitch factor gets squashed pretty quick after hearing stuff like this.
I like listening to these podcasts, lets me laugh at myself because I think I have had some bad days and I realize I really dont got it that bad and it makes me appreciate what I call bad days
Well said....
Yeah but just because a harder life exists for someone doesn't mean people don't still have hard lives. It's important to remember that as well.
his positive attitude and outlook on life should be a listen to all
Thank you for your service, Captain Plumb. Jocko said it best, you are a hero. To me and to our country.

One of the best , what an impressive man ! Nothing but respect!
Best podcast I've heard in a while. Amazing story. Gives me hope.
Makes me proud to have served in Vietnam
Thank you for your service and sacrifice sir.
Holy. Shit. Makes my commute feel not so bad. Thanks for everything you guys have done for us. Been binge watching these podcasts lately.

They are war criminals, bombing civilians. Killing innocent people they deserved their suffering and their victimization is sickening.

A o pop ooooooooooo ooo o o poop game is
So grateful and humbled to have experienced this podcast. Thank you Mr. Plumb and Jocko for sharing this treasure with us.
I think the thing that surprises me the most about Jocko is he's a really good story narrator, even when reading right out of Charlie's book, really helps pull you into the story
Jocko: “good evening echo”
Echo: “good evening”
Echo for the next 3 plus hours: “...”
I mean I'm not getting paid to listen to this. Echo got paid to sit in on a dream conversation and he didn't have to do a thing lol.
This man embodies the notion of "class act" like very few people ever have. What an example he is for all of us. Thank you sir, and thank you Jocko for bringing men like CPT Plumb and their stories to us.
Heard Charlie live a few years back, got a signed book Amazing man the Vietnam Vets in our groups had tears in their eyes
Thank you sir! Love the podcasts.. always learn something by listening. you cant find this type content anywhere else.
This is an incredible account of heroism. Thank you for telling the story. I'm a better person for it. Thank you for your service!
Outstanding from start to finish gentlemen.

Too pussy and weak minded to push myself to do sports as a kid. Joined an adult wrestling class and got my first ever takedown in king of the ring today. Also knocked out all my graduate papers and household errands. You’ve helped me a ton Jocko and echo. I really appreciate you guys
This was an amazing podcast one of Jocko's best. I went and ordered Capt. Plumb's book right away.
2:08:26-2:08:50 Yes. Thank you.
I’ve listened to this particular podcast four times. I get something different every time!! Try it!
Another masterpiece. Keep em coming Jocko and GET AFTER IT
Charlie Thank You Sir for Your Service and Your Words of Encouragement!! Thank You to Jocko for all you're doing!!...

Jocko is music to the ears
Me too. I stumbled across Jocko Podcast not long ago and decided to start at #1. Here we are now at #76. So awesome!
What an amazing man, thank you for the lessons, thank you Jocko and Echo
This is such a great presentation of how these men survived and in many ways thrived under such horrible circumstances. I know training time is so valuable for so many of the skills that need to be crammed in before a deployment, but it seems the lessons these men learned on how to survival mentally in these conditions would be priceless to any soldier or sailor that might end up in enemy hands.
I'm late to the party but this man is an absolute hero and just an excellent human.
i love how echo charles brings up the scooter...of all the questions to ask, he bring up the scooter...sooo funny haha
Complicated man, complicated questions...
Military vets tell the most enthralling stories, and the older they are the mote humble they come across.
love Jocko, podcasts are getting better and better
The torture is inexplicably painful. Wow sir. I am in awe of your resilience.
