I have to comment on a certain story that Evan tells at 1:27:15 because it's my story also. When Evan started talking about the "runaway SAW," the story started sounding more familiar to a story of my own. As soon as he said 101st Airborne and that three guys were hit and they all survived, I knew without a doubt this was my platoon. This happened back in 2003 and I just happened to be sitting right outside the door of the concrete rooms we were staying in at the time when it went down. Extremely weird to hear this randomly from a podcast and let alone that Evan is telling the story because he was there too, the CEO of BRCC mind you!
Living in rural Arkansas. My kid has SMA 2 and is confined to motorized wheelchair. He and his friends developed their own active shooter reaction plan and ran some drills and dragged some teachers into their plan. Super proud mom moment.
Great Podcast Andy, Mike and the real CEO Evan !! LOL.. Here in NY we have Red Flag Laws since Aug. 2019.. The Buffalo shooter was evaluated in June of the prior year for making threats about his school and powers to be failed to do there jobs!! Stay Strong and Be Safe !!!
Yep, plus some pencil pusher will decide what a red flag is. So you can’t tell me that under the current administration everything won’t be a red flag. Oh you had an interaction with the police RED FLAG oh you take medication for (insert medical issue here) RED FLAG. Not to mention that under these laws you are guilty intuition YOU approve yourself innocent
Yeah... About that.. Take those people out of society, but the same people pushing for child mutilation are the same people who get to make those decisions. Whether someone is a threat or not. For example, any vet who has depression or anxiety? Red flag. PTSD? Bye gun rights. Mike and his organization were labeled by his government, the FBI, as a "terrorist organization", so there goes his firearm rights. Every member of American Contingency, oh well they shouldn't have guns. You follow an "extremist" right winger on social media and liked one of their posts? Red flag. You voted "wrong"? Red flag. It's a slippery slope and the people who're already in charge of these things aren't objective. Many of these laws don't even require proof or for the accuser to be identified and challenged.
Man you guys speak the same shit that goes through my head!!! I listen and nod my head at the same time. I appreciate you guys! Have some Jarheads on from time to time.
It is very refreshing to hear MEN speak with conviction, boldness and confidence about what it means to be a man. Keep up the great work with this podcast.
When kids are little, they need a parent not a friend . You can be friends later , if your lucky . It’s what they need not what you want . Love the Glove , Stumpf my fellow SCian and the Black Rifle. 🤘🏼👊🏼🙏🏼
I think, just my opinion, that standards will go down to let women and “trans” complete the training, regardless of branch. The odd thing to me about it all, is that during WWII there were women special ops type mission sets for the OSS and allied intelligence services. They were geared toward what women do and could do that was different from men and it worked amazingly. I’m not sure where it became standard that men and women have to be the same?
Any man that wants to make an Olympic team has to be able to spend a couple of weeks on holiday getting blind drunk every night, stuffing their face with junk food stagger into training still hungover, post the worst performance of their careers but still utterly shatter the female world record. The difference between men and women when looking at elite physical performance is so vast that it is completely impossible for any woman to ever pass a special forces selection course unless it is for political reasons not honest performance. No amount of steroids in the world will help fix women's genetics, but they will render her infertile and childless for the rest of her life. We need to stop this idiocy. As you pointed out there have been some seriously hardcore women that deserve recognition, statues and movies in their honour, but this demanding we crater standards so women can be operators will cost lives.
female only SOF units exist in Norway and Israel and also the british SRR has women in it. Should never be carte blanche but be allowed where they can add value and not erode the cohesion or morale of a unit / organisation.
As long as the requirements and standards are not adjusted so others can make the grade. The standards were developed based on the mission requirements. If those are adjusted you lesson the war fighting capabilities.
What did you guys think of the show on CBS called "The Unit" Eric Haney was the technical advisor. Max Martini, Scott Foley, Michael Irby, and Dennis Haysbert were the lead characters.
When you three get together it makes for an awesome time! Just the stories y’all tell are great, and it’s amazing to hear the views you have on all this stupid shit going on today in the world! Keep it up guys awesome job!!!
It's a hoot..really enjoyed it ....so much respect for these special operators ...endless respect !!!! Need to make their life, health etc RIGHT after war fighting. They deserve the world from Americans, government. Trump did some great things in the VA....when that blow-hard stooge did NOTHING his whole political life. I applaud Trump for hammering McCain. What he and addicted wife did to those volunteer doctors who helped people around the world was truly disgusting !!!! Bad people the MCains very, very bad.... DC elitists ..
I actually found a Fairbairn Sykes knife at a garage sale in San Diego county a few years ago with the sheath (all beat to hell) and gave it to my son. The guy selling it said it was his kids and he just wanted to get rid of it. I paid about $10 bucks for it. dude had no idea what it was. Very cool knife!
Hell yeah, that semi sounds like an awesome idea! If you guys ever start your own shipping fleet sign me up! As a 91BH8 I would love to be a part of your company either driving or maintaining the fleet.
Hell yeah Evan! Call the issue out for what it is. The problem all around in this country is the mental health crisis and the absence of parents in their children's upbringing. Children and some adults even no longer see the value of human life. #blackriflecoffee
Andy, are you related to the recently passed Medal of Honor survivor Kenneth Edward Stumpf? I was assigned with him in Germany after he Won the Medal in Vietnam, a damn good person.
Hearing Mike describe sensitive site exploitation really hit home. Being a career firefighter, the public has no idea the amount of shit we have to see and put up with. And for a lot of guys in the military it’s on a whole other level.
That must be some high octane coffee they are drinking ….. LMFAO …. All three are talking so fast ….. reminds me of my devil dandruff days ….. love listening to you three , especially when your drinking jet fuel !!! Happy 4th of July gentlemen…. GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸
The military stories, commentary and issues you discuss are interesting but what's also interesting is your thoughts on the current events, on woke culture, on the ideological shift that's happening right now. Former or current military members often shy away from expressing opinion on these issues, so this episode was fresh.
I move freight for a living and manage customers freight and there is a crisis… Go back 6 months ago we’re currently seeing the costs catch up from the back up at the ports. There is a surplus of drivers coming to the market due to the pay increasing.
I took two guaranteed student loans for college, but believe me, I paid every dime back…..and on time. I bitterly resent any “forgiveness” of debt. They damn well should pay, on time, or be prosecuted by the government….which, unfortunately, the government has never wanted to do. Makes me livid. And today, for many professions, going to college is not the route to take. It depends on what your end goal IS. And as a teacher I made that point to students…go talk to someone in the profession you aspire to, ask them what training you need, then set up a pragmatic plan to achieve it, which may not mean college.
There's no better podcast on the planet than one with Evan, Mike, and Andy together. Gold every time. Great podcast gentlemen.
Mike, Andy, and Tim

Mike made a great point @ 18:45
Mike Glover wearing tiger stripe camo should be on every Army recruiting poster. Dude looks like Captain America 👍🇺🇲
Evan was wearing the same shirt on the last podcast they did together

Love it when y’all do these kind of episodes where it starts seriously then moves into hilarious stories
100% agree with Mr. Evan Hafer.
Dude. You guys are F’n HILARIOUS!!! In these times with bad entertainment you guys are more fun to watch and listen to!
There are some many gold clips from this sit down. From mindset to comedy gold 🤣 second time watching and still great.
Great Podcast Andy, Mike and the real CEO Evan !! LOL.. Here in NY we have Red Flag Laws since Aug. 2019.. The Buffalo shooter was evaluated in June of the prior year for making threats about his school and powers to be failed to do there jobs!! Stay Strong and Be Safe !!!
The system doesn't work.

@@danerickson1733 Yep, and they don't work "the system" in place, so why the heck should we give them more power? They'll just selectively abuse it.
these three when they get together is the funniest content on UA-cam
The very beginning of this video is the best! Evan saying “hooah” is so freaking funny 😂
You guys rock, I just laughed for 90 minutes straight.
Man you guys speak the same shit that goes through my head!!! I listen and nod my head at the same time. I appreciate you guys! Have some Jarheads on from time to time.
Thanks for shouting out the truckers! I'm a vet and a trucker so if you get that truck let me know I'll be your guy!
This chemistry is gold. Thanks for being awesome.
The office pop part of the video gets me every time. Literally laughing out loud.
You three are fun together. My favorite podcast lately. Especially war stories and more importantly, funny stories! Keep it up, love it!
Seriously…you three freaking rock! Truly enjoy listening….please keep it going!!
It is very refreshing to hear MEN speak with conviction, boldness and confidence about what it means to be a man. Keep up the great work with this podcast.
Thank you guys for everything! What a fun group of dudes to listen to!! Great episode 🤘🤘
Love these podcasts guys hope it does become a monthly thing keep up the great work
Serious talk with humor mixed in. Loved it.
3 dudes shooting the shit!!!! Great podcast, keep up the great work!!!!!
You got me at "wedge"] Fridays! So funny...really enjoy when you three share your wisdom!
This was an awesome episode! The stories at the end remind me of stories my uncle told about Sicily & Italy in WWII when I was young.
Petty chief senior Luka! 🤣🤣🤣
Nailed it! Finally a voice of reason! We live in a world where the insane are the sane and the sane are the insane.
When kids are little, they need a parent not a friend . You can be friends later , if your lucky . It’s what they need not what you want . Love the Glove , Stumpf my fellow SCian and the Black Rifle. 🤘🏼👊🏼🙏🏼
This podcast was legendary
As always great podcast! Yes, please continue to do these. Looking forward to the next one.
Phenomenal podcast, informative & hilarious, perfect combo…. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Outstanding guys!!

@LilyB no it's both, in general men and women and not physically equal. The fact you don't grasp that is typical of an American female.
For sure every month...I'd tune into it...
Great episode. Could listen to you 3 talk all day.
Every human should listen to the 13:00 mark(roughly)..as well as many other segments but the 8 yr old determining gender/school etc is so spot on..
Love these 3 guys,this is whom should be running our country
“Focused on the wrong things..” I simply couldn’t agree more!! Awesome episode!!
What did you guys think of the show on CBS called "The Unit" Eric Haney was the technical advisor. Max Martini, Scott Foley, Michael Irby, and Dennis Haysbert were the lead characters.
Lmao , former Marine was a grunt and yes we are all special. Love the podcast couldn’t stop laughing you guys are great , Semper Fi
Great dudes here!
Duuuuuuuude. That Sykes-Fairbairn is cool as hell.
When you three get together it makes for an awesome time! Just the stories y’all tell are great, and it’s amazing to hear the views you have on all this stupid shit going on today in the world! Keep it up guys awesome job!!!

Love the show. Keep em coming!!
Fantastic. Funny. Thanks guys.
Mike holding the knife the entire episode....Awesome.....Never got to hear his M79 story though....Next time....
The best scenario for Tim's shot would have added "If he hits the target, the Cadre is out of Sniper School"
I actively listened to the end 😂🤣😂🤣
The Bronco is so badass! 🔥 Saw it at the Spanish Fork Grand Opening... hard-core badass designed vehicle.
“Trying to get your kids to wear boots is exactly like getting into a gunfight on a mountain” 😂I love Mike. Man’s is in war 24/7
Outstanding job boys! love the Podcast keep it going!
Fayettenam and San Diego, sister cities, lololol that's freakin hilarious!!!!

Such a kick ass episode!
I actually found a Fairbairn Sykes knife at a garage sale in San Diego county a few years ago with the sheath (all beat to hell) and gave it to my son. The guy selling it said it was his kids and he just wanted to get rid of it. I paid about $10 bucks for it. dude had no idea what it was. Very cool knife!
So this is my 4th time listening to this!! Laugh harder every time!!
A mobile coffee shop like decked out semi that opens up and can be turned into a pop up shop and merch store! I think that’ll be great for events
Love this crew. More please 😁
i could here these stories and fall asleep!!
desk pops are the best 👌
I'm throwing my hat in the ring for the new tractor trailer driving job!! More than 20yrs and 1mil miles of drive time!
Love it, great stuff
Need to put a BRCC coffee shop in the Polaris area, just north of Columbus Ohio!
I’d love to see you guys do this on a regular basis. Maybe add Tim? Thanks for the laughs!
Fukin Love These!
This is why I subscribe
I love you guys and what you bring up good points in the world 🌎 I wish I could talk on a postcast like this!!!
Evans laugh is hilarious!!! Evil and sinister! I love it
Great show 👍🏻
Definitely need to do more 👍🏻
Definitely should be a monthly installment
Amazing episode duddes!
I want to hear Mike's AD story re the SEAL!!! :) He never got to tell it! These two are your best guests, by far.
So freaking awesome!!! I want Andy to drive by and wave from the Bronco.
Hell yeah, that semi sounds like an awesome idea! If you guys ever start your own shipping fleet sign me up! As a 91BH8 I would love to be a part of your company either driving or maintaining the fleet.
"Nahh i'm good, walk it off take a mortin..." fuggin dyin🤣🤣 I'll pay for a course from Mike just to hear the M79 story.
Hell yeah Evan! Call the issue out for what it is. The problem all around in this country is the mental health crisis and the absence of parents in their children's upbringing. Children and some adults even no longer see the value of human life. #blackriflecoffee
Thank you gentlemen, I needed a ray of fucking sunshine to brighten up my already shit morning, good day. 🤙🏼
Brothers good Podcast.
Semi truck!!!! ... look into the Oakley sunglasses truck. I can see a BRCC version for sure.
The next time all three of you sit down together, I think it’s Andy’s turn to where the tiger stripes. Attention to detail…😂
Love how andy just kept saying Javelin when talking about what would remove a head
"Parkour!" made me laugh so much but it's so wrong.... :D @1:06:00
Andy, are you related to the recently passed Medal of Honor survivor Kenneth Edward Stumpf? I was assigned with him in Germany after he Won the Medal in Vietnam, a damn good person.
1:20:17 alpha move to scratch your nose with the special old fighting knife. Fairbairn and Sykes would be proud 👏🏻
Unfragile or Antifragile? Anyone know the exact book Evan refers to at 24:54?
Trying to figure out the same thing.
Hearing Mike describe sensitive site exploitation really hit home. Being a career firefighter, the public has no idea the amount of shit we have to see and put up with. And for a lot of guys in the military it’s on a whole other level.
That must be some high octane coffee they are drinking ….. LMFAO …. All three are talking so fast ….. reminds me of my devil dandruff days ….. love listening to you three , especially when your drinking jet fuel !!! Happy 4th of July gentlemen…. GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸
Awesome podcast!!
I do love these episodes they make me laugh till it hurts
