I did 29 years in the Canadian Forces - I have never seen any man or woman with more balls or without balls to tell the truth about the Military and Political leadership in Canada. Bravo Zulu Kelsi.
Here in the Netherlands we still fondly remember the canadian's as they liberated us from nazi germany in ww2, they will always have a special place over here.
Mike, Phenomenal Podcast. We need more ladies like Kelsi !!! I didn’t know much about the Canadian Military. She’s right about the stereotype of the USA people. My family members we’re in all the wars. Heartbreaking about how your veterans are treated. Great Podcast !
well shit, I was just going to watch the intro and save this for later but now I'm almost an hour in. Awesome to see a strong woman with her kind of drive and fuck all mentality. Salute!
I've been following Kelsei for a couple years now, and she's got more balls, brass, integrity and drive then 90 percent of people I've known. Great interview Mike & Kels!
As a Deputy Sheriff and veteran, you help make sense of my ptsd. I didn’t understand how to explain my problem with family. Thank you so much for ideas.
Mike the 1 she spoke of is the 1st Infantry Division. The "Big Red One" was the first unit formed in the US Army in 1917. They are from Ft Riley Kansas. Infantry and Armor
What a lady. Her story could help so many, male and female. I appreciate her making her experience available in such an honest and frank manner. Mad, Mad respect.
I've seen Kelsi in other interviews and on her own podcast and she is a compact force of nature and funny as hell. And I'm watching this because, well, it's Mike Drop.
She pretend being "special girl" Tough & "manly" But she works in Jewelry/ Make Up :) The girliest silliest income ever :) She support herself through serial monogamy ;) With many men & sometimes she use The MeToo stuff for gains :(
Great interview. I've seen lots of Kelsi's interviews and I think she has enough humbleness to know she's not full of shit. There's a lot of backlash online about her not being where she says she was. But there's more to say she was. As a former memember in the canadian infantry, I think she was put into a situation she wasn't trained or prepared for. And that would be very tramatic. Keep doing you Kelsi, your awesome! Cheers from Alberta! 🇨🇦
@@thekelsisherenperspectiveA common lament of every grunt, male female or whatever in every war on every side throughout history most likely. I cannot remember how this goes now. We the unwilling (voluntold has a long history) who do the impossible with nothing or less, stick together and carry on. And yes there are different versions through the years probably but saddest thing is it never changes. Ever. Any body voting in war, should AT LEAST be a Veteran. Far from what most dope smoker woke chant the LAST people who want to send folks where they have been, are the survivors. Except as the LAST RESORT.
As a Canadian I really enjoyed this interview 😎 this chick is cool… Glad you had her on Mike 👊 You and Shawn Ryan have some very diverse guests Awesome content dude 👍 Cheers 🍻 from Canada 🇨🇦
Ma’am, as a Canadian who’s never served, I only want to say a couple things to you. I’m proud of you and hope for the best in your recovery. And lastly, I’m sorry you had to endure the soldier politics/lack of support that you did. I hope we can do better in time
Kelsi “we can still use the boot” Sheren. She’s not one of the biggest assholes who ever cursed a fighting force by serving for a week and making a lifelong lecture tour about why we owe it to veterans to be supportive when they commit acts of terrorism and hate crimes in the name of ptsd. She’s certainly not a disgrace of a human being who feels compassion only for herself and her problems. Always a pleasure to hear this brave courageous warrior badass telling some retired special forces guy who served for years and years on end how crippling the effects of war are. Always a pleasure.
Lmao right!? I was saying this and questioning her story back when she did andys podcast. I got alot of hate for it but i have to speak up any way i can when it seems like everyone else is watching a different movie than i am. Im glad to see someone is seeing the same thing as me for a change, instead of seeing this and taking the time to write.. "what a warrior" "freaking badass" etc. etc
This young woman is a warrior. WOW. This interview was powerful to say the least. Kelsi thank you for being such an example for women everywhere. I'm truly sorry that Canada didn't treat your physical / mental wellness with more delicacy and detail. This is a failure as well in the US. This psychedelic treatment seems to be working for many suffering, and I am grateful that there seems to be some healing. Mike as always great podcast. We in the US are so grateful for you.

As a former CF member way back in 1980 i thank you both for serving
Yes its not good looking from afar for Patriots and freedom lovers. All the best! We are in the same situation here in New Zealand🇳🇿. The country is waking up but i hope its not to late! Thanks to Canadian Patriots🇨🇦 truckers convoy we stormed NZ Parliament grounds and held ground for long enough to wake up a lot of people.👍
This was an amazing interview! I'm glad she was able to tell her story! Her describing the story about losing someone 😭😭. I that's the most real I've ever seen someone be telling a story.
Agreed! I was going to just click through to find the section I thought might be interested in but ended up listening through so I didn’t miss anything. Great conversation throughout
She's definitely embellishing and misrepresenting a several things, and I honestly dont care much for her politics(I dont care for JTs either, dont get me wrong)...but on the base level. she is definitely hitting on some real serious issues....she has her own bias though, dont get it twisted.
As recent subscriber and lover of your channel I wonder who / what you'll have on to emulate / be different(from previous) when you bring guests on ...you / them never fail to stop me in my tracks from just watching the intro itself and I make a coffee and just sit in awe of the questions and answers until the end normally. Quite honestly no one holds a candle to your questions or brings the most out of a guest. Kelsi was absolutely fantastic and I thank her for her bravery, stories, enlightenment , outlook and service. I wish her well in all she does 👍🏻🙏 Again Mike thank you for your expertise , knowledge and skills. As someone from the UK .... The Canadian government nearly makes ours look sane. Like ours it needs a huge change in Leadership so it serves the people it represents and not it's pockets or itself . Be safe 🦉 G🙏
Thanks for your opinion on helmuts. Rodeo guy/ hockey player here....Geezer. Cowboy's won't wear headgear and we don't see the head injuries we do in hockey. Hockey is most understandable to most, the respect for others on the ice surface is low. Hitting from behind, stick work and the elbow pads are as hard as iron. Elbows up, Sticks around the opponents face. Proud of this gal. Fellow Canuck
FOB Ramrod was named after my unit. 2-2 INF Ramrods 1st Infantry Division. I deployed with them to Iraq in 04-05. MOH recipient SSG Bellavia was one of the squad leaders in my company.
One thing I've learned over the years... Never tell the Canadian gov./military what they won't do. We deployed to Afghanistan in CADPAT TWs (xmas tree suits). Need I say more? They say "Marines make-do". * Laughs in Canadian * lol We "make-do" so hard because half our shit either doesn't work or "fell of the truck". The C7 I did Qual. with was just a beat-up Frankenstein of bottom-barrel replacement parts, like a highschool trumpet lol. And don't even get me started on the whole "we expect you to do this, but we ain't gonna tell you what, who or why" thing... It's a very efficient Morale-destroyer. I've spoken to many other Canadian Veterans who call me "disgruntled", but my response is simple "You served in the same utter circle-jerk I did. How are do you *not* have feelings about it?" The only way I'm "disgruntled" is if they're just blinded True Believers.
Great episode mike, I can definitely relate to Kelsi about the PTSD stuff and what she had to say about psychedelic’s and what they do, and that it wont work for everyone and people should do their research before trying any of them. Bless both of you for this content.
Kelsi Respect ! I’m former fire / first responder, it took me 19 years to figure out why I was rubbing (cleaning) my hands on bad nights / days, I feel you. I didn’t do anything either, you don’t remember the good shit you did, just the stuff that haunts.
Mike , I’m 56. Our governments support and handling of our Canadian Military has been a messy fucking abortion since at least before I was born. Imagine any country with as many shore miles to defend sovereignty not having at least 2 blue sea battle groups with a carrier. We joke that we needed the US to ferry our F18’s to the Mediterranean for Afghanistan. We did sorties without any missile guidance tech. One of Trudeau’s first military moves after he was elected, was recalling our F18’s because we were just burning fuel. Fucking embarrassing.
Canada produces top-tier warriors. Check out the stories of Robert Hampton Gray, Leo Major, Tommy Prince, Francis Pegahmagabow, William George Barker and Rob Furlong.
Her story sounds alot like my time in. Just slightly different circumstances. Watched freinds get blown up, did body recovery, the got tossed like garbage after i started having issues. Then spent 13 yrs trying to get proper treatment from the VA. Started drinking just to sleep, the downward spiral with my command, the laundry list of pills, your broke, here's you dd-214 you're not our problem now, then left to my own devices.
I am recently retired 30years Canadian Miltary 🇨🇦 combat arms regular force member with numerous deployments. My deployments to Afghanistan 🇦🇫 I was with OMLT (Operational Mentoring and Liaison Team) and also Ukraine. I am enjoying my retirement without political correctness and my views were not in line the Government. Hopefully now that NATO will put pressure on Canadian Government to spend 2% of Canadian GDP. I am proud of my service but our higher ups and Government needs to realize we are not a supper power and stop referring that we have Miltary Division. However Canadian solider are very good with basic solidering skills. Remember our Miltary career is a small part of our chapter in life, now I volunteer with my community to give back.
For a woman who served in the Canadian forces to say “we only have jtf2” is kinda ridiculous. We have multiple special forces units. Yes we have our tier1 unit jtf2 but we also have CJIRU the Canadian joint incident response unit as well as CSOR Canadian special operations regiment and then we have our special operations aviation which is called 427 squadron I believe. Also our navy’s closest thing to special unit is NTOG they’re not technically under CANSOFCOM umbrella but they’re a solid unit of operators. So we don’t just have jtf2 lol
When comparing the level of operator or Mike a navy seal, we do only have 1 tier one. Let me clarify that. Yes we have all of the joint incident response and Csor but we only have 1 comparable to seals.
She was in in 2009 lol there’s no confusion she just downplayed our sof sinpky becsuse she’s ignorant and is a one deployment wonder. There’s a reason jocko pulled his podcast with her. She’s a dumb grifter.
There are no bills in the legislature that allow or encourage censorship. This is a pretty common political tactic where people spread misinformation about a bill and bank on no one actually reading it. So don't take my word for it, bill C-11 is about CRTC (FCC in America) regulating streaming services and specifically - laid out in the bill it excludes UA-cam content creators or bloggers or people posting things to the internet. Not accusing her of lying, she's just wrong and repeating something she heard. Pretty common. >> Exclusion - carrying on broadcasting undertaking (2.1) A person who uses a social media service to upload programs for transmission over the Internet and reception by other users of the service - and who is not the provider of the service or the provider’s affiliate, or the agent or mandatory of either of them - does not, by the fact of that use, carry on a broadcasting undertaking for the purposes of this Act. THIS ACT SPECIFICALLY SAYS THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT SHE JUST SAID. And NO, I don't think she's dishonest. It's just that nobody likes to read bills. We'd rather have someone's take on it. And the takes we get on a bill, usually come from someone who hasn't read it. And NO - some liberal ridings aren't BIGGER. Nor would a riding being bigger make any difference. Towns and cities and villages are grouped into ridings or electoral districts of about 80k people and each gets to elect a member to the Federal legislature - like a congressional race in the U.S. Each of those elected members gets a vote in the house. You cannot elect the Prime Minister. Your elected member can vote for or against the PM. A majority vote of the members of the House of Commons can, at any time, remove a Prime Minister and call an election. There are provinces like Alberta that are very anit-liberal. But their population represents 11.6% of the nation. And their biggest cities contain lots of Liberals. Big city people are liberal. Rural people are more suspicious of minorities because they don't know lots of great immigrants. Live in a city, and you are exposed to tonnes of hard working and friendly immigrants. Live in the country and you don't run into a lot of immigrants. This confuses rural people and they feel like their voice isn't heard. It's not a conspiracy. READ THE BILL YOURSELF www.parl.ca/DocumentViewer/en/44-1/bill/C-11/third-reading
@@thekelsisherenperspective the nameless bill that you can't link to? In the House of Commons, a bill that starts in the House begins with a C followed by a number. If it's started in the Senate it's an S followed by a number. And bills don't just pop up and pass in a week - first reading, debate - second reading - committee - vote - Senate - Royal Ascent. I really wish you'd paid attention in grade 5 when they covered this. You don't deserve the democracy that generations of my family died for.
Not sure how much of it has been resolved Mike, but a bunch of the crap she wrote in her book and talked about on Jocko were ... Inaccurate at best. Not sure what to think anymore about anything else she says
You mean the book that’s not out yet that no one has access too?? Suuuuure. How about you ask the people involved instead of trolls. Feel free, but you won’t because facts don’t seem to matter.
@@thekelsisherenperspective that's fine, I was referring to what I heard on Jocko, and the thousands of people who it didn't sit right with, and the Scottish blokes who didn't/couldn't corroborate some of the story. It is no doubt clear that you have been through hell regardless of the details- and no one is denying that- however there's some aspects of "crying wolf" that make it difficult to listen to, and do a disservice to others. Thank you for your service regardless, and wish you the best.
@@accordv6er Thanks for the reply, unfortunately the ones who weren't along side me cant corroborate the same. I wasnt with them, so I fully agree they couldn't have seen me but the ones I was with, all have confirmed information to Jocko about this and stepped up and wrote on behalf. There is nothing about my story that is crying wolf, but I can see how people have made it look as such. I appreciate you taking the time. Be well!
That needed to be mentioned, especially given that her book release has been delayed as concerns have been raised. She’s also gotten in trouble for fraud over her disability payments while using her story as a sales pitch. The fact there are guys who served years in special forces who have way less to talk about than her one week adventure kinda says she’s a dramatist in and of itself. I love to hate her, so I don’t mind seeing her on these podcasts, because if the guys who have the most reason to snub her are willing to promote her line of bs, then who am I to judge by comparison? But I’ve read the objections by her teammates to things she says, and anyone who hasn’t should before they decide how big a badass cool chick she is.
KELSI IS MOST FORTHRIGHT WOMEN I HAVE EVER COME ACROSS AND I LOVE IT. YOU ARE BADASS . YOU ARE BEST ADVOCATE FOR VETS EVERYWHERE. GOD LOVE YOU .THANKS FROM AN OLD AUSSIE GRUNT. TELL IT LIKE IT IS. ❤
Listening to her it sounds like they constantly had to make changes to accommodate her, look out for her, and then after seeing one guy get blown up she's got PTSD for the rest of her life and now the government can send her a check forever maybe women should not be in combat
What is your professional medical expertise? You do know that some men have experienced less in the military and still suffer from PTSD issues, or don't you? It may help to research and study history. Women have been in combat for centuries! Whether disguised as men, of just fighting in just about every position from front line to supporting roles. Just because the facts are not widely shared or made available does not mean it didn't happen. Do your own research!
Definitely women are different. She probably didn't have to hump round to chuck them. But to say trauma isn't relative is idiotic. Maybe they shouldn't be in combat units. I would agree. But she is and experienced that
This woman is pretty hard! I think I like her, I'm sorry about your head injuries. Thank you for helping us in the war thank you for your service to your country, so you could help our country. I am greatly appreciative. I'm hoping that the Hat you're wearing, doesn't portray the person you are. That's kind of like the Undertaker hat
I did 29 years in the Canadian Forces - I have never seen any man or woman with more balls or without balls to tell the truth about the Military and Political leadership in Canada. Bravo Zulu Kelsi.
She didnt say much about anything political or about the caf itself. Your point makes no sense.
Here in the Netherlands we still fondly remember the canadian's as they liberated us from nazi germany in ww2, they will always have a special place over here.
I didn’t know that information. Thanks
Respect for Canada military for that 🙏🙏
my dad was a dutch pow in a slave camp..poisoned by eugene shwab..he told me the stories and he told me what canada did he was greatfull
Mike, Phenomenal Podcast.
We need more ladies like
Kelsi !!! I didn’t know much
about the Canadian
Military. She’s right about
the stereotype of the USA
people. My family members
we’re in all the wars.
Heartbreaking about how
your veterans are treated.
Great Podcast !
Canada barely as a military.
@@ejd7881 Under Harper the Military was supported pretty good. Under Trudeau though. Trudeau couldn’t run a Kindergarten class successfully.
well shit, I was just going to watch the intro and save this for later but now I'm almost an hour in. Awesome to see a strong woman with her kind of drive and fuck all mentality. Salute!
This is the most accurate comment I've ever read.
I did the same dam thing. Respect to her for serving and standing up.
I've been following Kelsei for a couple years now, and she's got more balls, brass, integrity and drive then 90 percent of people I've known. Great interview Mike & Kels!
What an amazingly strong and inspirational woman. I haven't served myself but I am truly in awe of Kelsi and her story. Thank you from Australia xo
you absolutely rock..you are an outstanding canadian..im sorry our gov has let you down. im proud of you
As a Deputy Sheriff and veteran, you help make sense of my ptsd. I didn’t understand how to explain my problem with family. Thank you so much for ideas.
Mike the 1 she spoke of is the 1st Infantry Division. The "Big Red One" was the first unit formed in the US Army in 1917. They are from Ft Riley Kansas. Infantry and Armor
Thank you Mike for interviewing a (tough) Canadian. People don't realize how amazing the Canadian military is.
What a lady. Her story could help so many, male and female. I appreciate her making her experience available in such an honest and frank manner. Mad, Mad respect.
Excellent interview and representation of our Canadian Women Soldiers! Thank you for your service, sister in arms.
What an outstanding interview. My heart goes out to this girl and what she has gone through. She is one tough soldier.
I've seen Kelsi in other interviews and on her own podcast and she is a compact force of nature and funny as hell. And I'm watching this because, well, it's Mike Drop.
She pretend being "special girl" Tough & "manly" But she works in Jewelry/ Make Up :) The girliest silliest income ever :) She support herself through serial monogamy ;) With many men & sometimes she use The MeToo stuff for gains :(
"Figure it out or phuuck off!" Love it.
Great interview. I've seen lots of Kelsi's interviews and I think she has enough humbleness to know she's not full of shit. There's a lot of backlash online about her not being where she says she was. But there's more to say she was.
As a former memember in the canadian infantry, I think she was put into a situation she wasn't trained or prepared for. And that would be very tramatic.
Keep doing you Kelsi, your awesome!

I'm canadian living in Ontario totally agree with the f--k government is a peice of crap
Yes its not good looking from afar for Patriots and freedom lovers.

Interesting and surprising perspective. Thanks for sharing your important stories!
Thanks for your opinion on helmuts.

I'm British and anyone that has ever read a book knows the Canadians were often used as shock troops in WW2
And ww1 it was there they earn their reputation. some of the best

When comparing the level of operator or Mike a navy seal, we do only have 1 tier one. Let me clarify that. Yes we have all of the joint incident response and Csor but we only have 1 comparable to seals.
Reg seal teams aren’t tier1 mike wasn’t tier1. The seals tier 1 unit is naval special warfare development group aka devgru or seal team six.
CSOR wasnt a thing until 2006 so im assuming thats part of the confusion
She was in in 2009 lol there’s no confusion she just downplayed our sof sinpky becsuse she’s ignorant and is a one deployment wonder. There’s a reason jocko pulled his podcast with her. She’s a dumb grifter.

Hey Gagetown is 20 minutes from here! Great to hear my area being mentioned lol
There are no bills in the legislature that allow or encourage censorship. This is a pretty common political tactic where people spread misinformation about a bill and bank on no one actually reading it. So don't take my word for it, bill C-11 is about CRTC (FCC in America) regulating streaming services and specifically - laid out in the bill it excludes UA-cam content creators or bloggers or people posting things to the internet. Not accusing her of lying, she's just wrong and repeating something she heard. Pretty common.
>> Exclusion - carrying on broadcasting undertaking
(2.1) A person who uses a social media service to upload programs for transmission over the Internet and reception by other users of the service - and who is not the provider of the service or the provider’s affiliate, or the agent or mandatory of either of them - does not, by the fact of that use, carry on a broadcasting undertaking for the purposes of this Act.
THIS ACT SPECIFICALLY SAYS THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT SHE JUST SAID. And NO, I don't think she's dishonest. It's just that nobody likes to read bills. We'd rather have someone's take on it. And the takes we get on a bill, usually come from someone who hasn't read it.
And NO - some liberal ridings aren't BIGGER. Nor would a riding being bigger make any difference. Towns and cities and villages are grouped into ridings or electoral districts of about 80k people and each gets to elect a member to the Federal legislature - like a congressional race in the U.S. Each of those elected members gets a vote in the house. You cannot elect the Prime Minister. Your elected member can vote for or against the PM. A majority vote of the members of the House of Commons can, at any time, remove a Prime Minister and call an election.
There are provinces like Alberta that are very anit-liberal. But their population represents 11.6% of the nation. And their biggest cities contain lots of Liberals. Big city people are liberal. Rural people are more suspicious of minorities because they don't know lots of great immigrants. Live in a city, and you are exposed to tonnes of hard working and friendly immigrants. Live in the country and you don't run into a lot of immigrants. This confuses rural people and they feel like their voice isn't heard. It's not a conspiracy.
READ THE BILL YOURSELF
www.parl.ca/DocumentViewer/en/44-1/bill/C-11/third-reading
Feel free to read the new bill which passed this week.
@@thekelsisherenperspective the nameless bill that you can't link to? In the House of Commons, a bill that starts in the House begins with a C followed by a number. If it's started in the Senate it's an S followed by a number. And bills don't just pop up and pass in a week - first reading, debate - second reading - committee - vote - Senate - Royal Ascent. I really wish you'd paid attention in grade 5 when they covered this. You don't deserve the democracy that generations of my family died for.
@@thekelsisherenperspective still waiting for that bill number.
Another good 1 Mike and Guest.👍🇳🇿
Outstanding podcast
Great guest, Mike.
Im always curious about how the military works in other countries, loved this new perspective! 😁
Not sure how much of it has been resolved Mike, but a bunch of the crap she wrote in her book and talked about on Jocko were ... Inaccurate at best. Not sure what to think anymore about anything else she says
That doesn't suprise me
You mean the book that’s not out yet that no one has access too?? Suuuuure. How about you ask the people involved instead of trolls.
Feel free, but you won’t because facts don’t seem to matter.
@@thekelsisherenperspective that's fine, I was referring to what I heard on Jocko, and the thousands of people who it didn't sit right with, and the Scottish blokes who didn't/couldn't corroborate some of the story. It is no doubt clear that you have been through hell regardless of the details- and no one is denying that- however there's some aspects of "crying wolf" that make it difficult to listen to, and do a disservice to others.
Thank you for your service regardless, and wish you the best.
@@accordv6er Thanks for the reply, unfortunately the ones who weren't along side me cant corroborate the same. I wasnt with them, so I fully agree they couldn't have seen me but the ones I was with, all have confirmed information to Jocko about this and stepped up and wrote on behalf. There is nothing about my story that is crying wolf, but I can see how people have made it look as such. I appreciate you taking the time. Be well!
That needed to be mentioned, especially given that her book release has been delayed as concerns have been raised. She’s also gotten in trouble for fraud over her disability payments while using her story as a sales pitch. The fact there are guys who served years in special forces who have way less to talk about than her one week adventure kinda says she’s a dramatist in and of itself. I love to hate her, so I don’t mind seeing her on these podcasts, because if the guys who have the most reason to snub her are willing to promote her line of bs, then who am I to judge by comparison? But I’ve read the objections by her teammates to things she says, and anyone who hasn’t should before they decide how big a badass cool chick she is.
Awesomeness
Another outstanding episode shipmate
KELSI IS MOST FORTHRIGHT WOMEN I HAVE EVER COME ACROSS AND I LOVE IT. YOU ARE BADASS . YOU ARE BEST ADVOCATE FOR VETS EVERYWHERE. GOD LOVE YOU .THANKS FROM AN OLD AUSSIE GRUNT. TELL IT LIKE IT IS. ❤
I always enjoy your podcasts. This one was exceptional though.
Enjoyed this one. To here her perspective was very informative and interesting. You the man mike
I agree with mike 100% women stay with women and the men stay with the men period
Great interview.Now just imagine the guys who did 3 or 4 deployments and did that shit every day they were there.
Our special forces are the best
War is hell. A necessary, hell.
When is the episode with Cole coming out?
Great show!
Great content! Really enjoyed that
Kelsi is badass
The Canadian Air Force certainly love flying in and out of Prestwick Airport Scotland. I'm sure it's nothing to be concerned about😨
The RCAF uses Prestwick as the way point for channeling Ukrainian military aid........you guys are getting waaaay too paranoid
Please present another opportunity to buy your "not for sale" hat. I missed the last one. Everyone, if you love your dog, buy Mike's dog food.
Killer interview, unusual but real, and awesome!
Listening to her it sounds like they constantly had to make changes to accommodate her, look out for her, and then after seeing one guy get blown up she's got PTSD for the rest of her life and now the government can send her a check forever maybe women should not be in combat
What is your professional medical expertise?
You do know that some men have experienced less in the military and still suffer from PTSD issues, or don't you?
It may help to research and study history. Women have been in combat for centuries! Whether disguised as men, of just fighting in just about every position from front line to supporting roles. Just because the facts are not widely shared or made available does not mean it didn't happen. Do your own research!
Definitely women are different. She probably didn't have to hump round to chuck them. But to say trauma isn't relative is idiotic. Maybe they shouldn't be in combat units. I would agree. But she is and experienced that
As a canadian. im terrified..i have been thinking more about how it might be good to get liberated
Hahaha...Ontario is not 'east coast', it's central Canada. Nova Scotia, PEI, NB and NFLD are 'east coast'. Love her outspokeness and frank honesty.
Love the podcast Mike! Much love from Canada. America seems to do regime changes maybe you guys can do Canada next?
Hahahaha 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
We have oil, need more freedom
Wrong podcast, you meant to comment on Shawn Ryan Show
the big red 1. fort Riley ks!!
Great opening edit. 🎙
22:42 Her explanation of rugby almost made me do a spit take. 🤣🤣
🤟🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 Really enjoyed this one❤️
This woman is pretty hard! I think I like her, I'm sorry about your head injuries. Thank you for helping us in the war thank you for your service to your country, so you could help our country. I am greatly appreciative. I'm hoping that the Hat you're wearing, doesn't portray the person you are. That's kind of like the Undertaker hat
