I grew up in San Diego area in the late 70’s/80’s. My mom was dropping me off for my first day of second grade and she said “one day, you’ll be big like the 6th graders and you won’t be worried about your first day of school.” I replied “I’ll never live to see 12 years old. I’ll be killed or kidnapped before that.” We moved to another state within months.
@@croatiancroissant28776 actually I changed my mind, you are so right! San Diego is scary, anyone not a local or whose grandparents weren’t born here, please go back to your state of record. It’s for your own safety
I grew up in San Diego in the 80’s 90’s, family from southeast and I loved my childhood but yes it was hella violent. I grew up and moved to Europe and traveled plenty… so many ppl say so many different things about SD but I always tell them my city is the most beautiful city in America and u can live a beautiful life there if u stay on the right path… but if ur a fuck-up like me and looking for trouble, San Diego has more trouble to offer u than u can ever imagine 😂
One hour of my night well spent. Both y'all are truly relatable. I made a mess of my military career, because I didn't appreciate the opportunities that i had at the time. I remember getting out and just being lost for a good couple years trying to fill that "what now" feeling with everything I could get my hands on. One day I came to after passing out drunk in my car and realized I can't go on like this. Today Im 11 months clean off of heroine and alcohol, I have a beautiful family, and my life has meaning. Come to find out the things I thought would break me are my greatest Blessings, so long as I stay grateful. God Bless all y'all

@@bambbambboyguy123 you believe bullshit despite having access to the truth because of some fanboy bias. Calling the truth 'hate' makes you sound like a wokester living in your mom's basement. Sorry I didnt pre-request your desired pronoun. I hope you werent offended I used masculine.

5:06 the notion that life expectancy was ~35 years was bc infant/child mortality rate was so high. If you don't include infant mortality, life expectancy averaged upwards of 50+ years
Which was still a very small percentage of people. One tiny infection which is treatable these days would end it back then. Not to mention the value for human life was almost zero.
Sadly that's 5 million less people to gain this wisdom and experience. This could save lives. If it wasn't for a random TY recomendation I would have never heard of this episode or podcast.

Inspiring, far from it. Kicked out of the seals because he was a drug addiction and a juicer. Because a criminal and drug dealer. Joined the Legion, wasn't good enough to join any of their elite units and then deserted like the pos coward and quitter that he really is
I’ve watched this man speak about his life several times on many interviews and what concerns me the most is that he might do something to physically hurt himself. I wonder if he’s overcome his addictions, it’s hard to watch him struggle, at least it seems like he’s struggling and these interviews may be part of a program where he has to confess to what’s happened in the past. Sure hope he makes it, he seems a bit lost and directionless.
Strangely, watching him from the corner of an eye, he comes across as psychologically badly hurt, (by what he experienced, or did to others? ) it's like his soul is literally separating at times. I d say, he's steadily walking on the edge, in (invisible) bad company... He comes across as highly suicidal. Is this what you mean? Respectfully.
@@kevinpheley bro God bless you man, hope you get a ton more attention on this platform. Lovin' this podcast, just found out about this yesterday. Really feel the genuineness and synergy in this one. Watched the whole thing 🙏🙏
“No One” has “Ever” asked him (during interviews) whether he’s seen action while in the legion; because they (the legion) did go to Afghanistan, just like other militaries.
@@Truthbomb918 he was a fuckup in the Legion by his own account. He spoke of the prospect of deployment to Ukraine. Did that prompt his desertion....I mean 'pivot?'🤣 When the truth comes out watch for a fansonly page😂
@@swschu a fuckup is about all this criminal juicer is. Imagine being in the seals and the Legion and never once seeing combat. He's a disco soldier, and the Legion was never ever going to deploy to urkraine, never. It's an excuse from him, he just couldn't handle it anymore
Looking forward to this one, I can't get enough of Cavanaugh since hearing him on Soft White Underbelly. Seriously there should be a movie made about the life he has lead
@Truthbomb918 You're not familiar with his story. He beat addiction, stopped all the BS, and overcame his demons. Now he's an extreme winner. Do you even know what a winner is? His life would make an incredible movie. It would be part action adventure, part drama, and maybe part comedy (ie things like the golf cart incident, etc). You should become a client of Taylor's so that he can help get you straightened out 💯
@@YeseniaV92 he's nothing more than a mouthy juicer who loves himself but has literally failed at everything. A criminal, drug dealer, deserter and a proven quitter
A high school dropout that's basically been a fuck up his entire life get's a podcast and gives other people advice how to live their life like he knows anything, blind leading the blind, love it
You have an extremely negative mindset dude.. yes he was kicked out of seals and deserted the legion (for good reason).. but instead of choosing failure he chose to rebuild and rebrand himself.. so instead of criticizing maybe open up those ears and try to learn from people who have had to overcome hardships because one day you will have to deal with hardships it is inevitable.

Those Kids were Rocket Power
He knew, he didn’t want to say it.
Why wouldn’t I say it? 😂
So kicked out of both seals legion and talks about food and working out, same old stories hasn't taken responsibility for his f@#k ups
The cartoon he was talking about was called Rocket Power
25 min in and this podcast is great!
Thank you!

“No One” has “Ever” asked him (during interviews) whether he’s seen action while in the legion; because they (the legion) did go to Afghanistan, just like other militaries.
He never saw action, got kicked out of the seals before seeing any. Wasn't able to get into any of the Legions elite units

Real question: whom is interviewing whom?
How can you forget rocket power !!!!
The eastern Byzantine empire collapsed after Columbus landed in the Caribbean
Rich Piana if he had become a Seal.
TS/SCI is not the highest lol. There’s lifestyle polys, and the Yankee white is presidential, that’s the monster to get.
Bro if you said ya one more time
Ya
He got kicked out the navy and the legion worst soldier ever
You honestly think roids is a reason to get kicked out the army
I think it's reversed taylor needs his own pod. Not this guy.
You should start your own show
how did you get TCAV on with 3.5K followers???
Cuz I’m a fuckin G that’s how

> 5 minutes of 60 total is about the FFL.
GTFOH

Apparently the foreign legion is used by some Eastern European men who want an French/European Union passport.
With the French Foreign Legion, you can get the French nationality indeed.
He’s obviously on cycle how does that work out wen ur a SEAL
Pretty boring what I guess an NA meeting is like. Minimum information re seals ditto re FFL. Edit ok around 52:00 finally some ffl
23:14 yet you do a video for people to watch on their phones
He’s obviously on juice
Interesting story can see he takes roids
