How the hell is one man so grounded?!? His words and tonality makes it so that you can't help but listen and get motivated to do something. I truly believe it's not an act. He is the most genuine guy on the internet. Thank you so much for recording and posting his interview.
This channel is criminally underrated. These are the stories that are crucial to people understanding the cost of war and freedom. Perhaps knowing it will make us less likely to cheer and jeer for new and often unnecessary conflict if we're all aware to some degree of the cost.
Combat veterans war stories should be the only thing that the show "60 Minites" ever covers. Plain and simple. These stories should be shared with high schoolers. For those who want to join, give them a glimpse of the "REAL" side of the military a recruiter won't tell you. And for those certain groups who have zero respect for anyone who ever served their country. I'm against war, (I'm a combat vet myself) BUT, me and so many like me will ALWAYS do what it takes and then some to protect the ones we love, those who don't even know we exist, and even the ones who don't even deserve to be called an American. I'm only against sending men and women (young and old) to fight and possibly die because of greedy ass, rich ass, politicians and private investors of war. THATS the part of war I'm against.
This man is a special communicator. I love these episodes, they are raw, unpolished, in the flesh. I’m a member of this tribe, served in the same areas during the same times. I am always humbled and blown away by the depth of my fellow brothers, and how they have evolved through life where not one single thing defines them or holds them back. Love it…
Byron’s story is insane. God bless that man. & thank you for creating this channel it’s touched me in so many ways & makes me feel like I’m not doing this alone. God bless.
My wife got me his book shortly after I got out seeing how I was having a hard time adjusting to a new life out of the marines. Definitely opened my eyes to seeing the world in a new way.
Sometimes I watch part of the Urban Valor stories, but I must say that Byron Rodgers has truly impressed me as a good man, good Marine, and his future is strong. He is so well-spoken, disciplined, intelligent, and principled! Seems like Byron is the kind of guy who could run for Congress. Best wishes.
Damn this one got me my best friend took himself out and he visited me in a dream the night he checked out. Now I'm convinced his spirit really did visit me. He's got stories for days bring him back.
That was one of the best interviews I have seen in a long time. Thank you Byron for being so open regarding yourself, you are the Gentle Giant with a soul of a warrior. Bless you you and thanks. From the UK
You're an awesome man! God bless you. My dad was a WW2 marine. He didn't talk about his service much, but he instilled in us, your beliefs. Thank you for your service and your continued service to people. Hopefully you live to a ripe old age and enjoy life.
As a combat marine myself I truly appreciate this interesting interview and got the wheels turning with alot of great memories. Thank you for the trip down memory lane
Urban Valour... every single episode every single time, reaches a new level! Oddly, as the pandemic hit, I lived in Hue Vietnam for 3 years. Being a student of history brought me there. This man is such an exemplary human. I feel so blessed to watch this! Thank you Urban Valour for showcasing the trials and tribulations of these beautiful men and women 🇨🇦❤️🙏
Oh crap, so good to see Byron on here!! We love you man!! Still love listening to the content with Canary Cry Radio and Fire Theft Radio. Was cool seeing you in Call of Duty btw.

Thanks so much! We’re still new and growing fast! The growth is exciting and agree, we’re going to build something special! Thank you so much for your amazing support
I think many forgot, because your soo, she’ll shock at listening to the stories , he have to post sub, and share threw out video, because many goes into wonder land 😂🧐🫣🫣
We’re honored to have sat down with him to hear his incredible story. His transparency and willingness to share to help others is truly something special. Courageous doesn’t begin to define it.
Damn just listening to him speak I was like “damn does he have a UA-cam channel?” So I searched his name and he does! Looks like an excellent source of guidance and motivation
This soldier’s story just shows how important honing one’s intuitive skills is essential in terms of surviving life and death situations ! 🦅🌸🦅🙏🏽🦅🌸🦅👵🏽👋🏾
Thank you so much! We appreciate your support big time! We’re working hard to spread the stories of our incredible veterans, but without people who show love and support like you, our goal of a million subscribers wouldn’t be possible. Thank you so much 🙏
I’m so glad I found this channel to hear these stories. I was denied entry to the military because of tattoos back in the day & I often wonder how things would’ve went if I was accepted! I appreciate this channel and stories
I was an army recruiter for many years tattoos are waiverable unless you have hate tattoos or gang tattoos so you cooked your own goose. It’s better to be a civilian anyway, you carry less baggage that way… I even process guys with neck, tattoos and hand tattoos… just play call of duty and go about your way… donate to the wounded warrior program or make donations to your local VFW. That’s the best you can do…
My man!!! This dude is switched on for real. What a brilliant outlook he has going. I hope dudes pay attention to the map he is drawing. Thanks Byron you have no clue what listening to this did for me!!!! Fuck yeah!!!!
Because of people like him over 2 million people were murdered in two illegal occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan. America sticking its nose into other countries business certainly hasn't made the world a safer place, quite the opposite
I hear these stories and what you guys went thru and got nothing but 100% respect! Thank you for your service and thank you for these shows. While you guys were fighting, I was sitting in prison for doing dumb shit. Ive tried understanding what you guys went thru and how it must seem to be out of that chaos and just how people prolly dont have a clue what you guys went thru. Love all you. Thank you
I'm sorry, but this channel should have millions of followers. Just shows how crazy America is that certain influencer's making millions, and million's of dollars. Love this channel
Great interview . U asked the right quiestions tht everyone wants to know . U didn’t interrupt once . He’s a great inspiration great interview fam u earned a sub
The best therapy for me is a nice ride in the mountains on my dirt bike, or a lonely curvy Road on my adventure bike! Thanks for your service and your sacrifice, God bless you!
What an up beat and amazing dude. It's people of this . special foresight. Witch is very rare that gives me a little bit hope and gratitude for the future thank you very much for your service god has blessed you already
The BEAST he speaks of is something men these days are completely void of. It's something we need as a society, true protectors like this. I really enjoyed this video. Thank you for your service.
I have it and it's not something am happy about, you need to find a way to control it before it messes up your relationship with your Woman and family it affects those dearest to a Man .. Unless you find God and Jesus it will ruin any Man
Byron when you spoke about JESUS that was great.When I surrender to JESUS that was the greatest day I have ever had.JESUS brought me through 40 surgeries and I need 3 more.I know he has brought me through the Surgeries. Byron that you for doing all you have done brother. GOD BLESS all Soldiers and First Responders. Thanks again brother.
Byron You Define to me the Authentic Definition of ABSOLUTE HEROISM with MASCULINE AMERICAN MANHOOD! YOU INSPIRE ME TO BE BETTER!Thank You For Your ABSOLUTE COMMITMENT TO GOD AND OUR COUNTRY! God Send America More Men as Yourself!
My new favorite channel , great for when Jocko gets a little boring with his Q&A. Keep up the great work! These stories need to be told , the character of these men are unmatched.
Used to see Byron all the time at the gym and he was always full of positive energy. Glad to see him doing well and making it big.
I not only respect this man, but also respect the Army recruiter that had the integrity to point him in the right direction to the best fit for him.
My thoughts exactly 😎🦾⚓
