Cole grew up in Hampton Roads, Virginia and after graduation enlisted into the military in 2003.

” Don’t let it fool you, Cole is a fuckin animal”
- DJ Shipley
When did he say that? Love these dudes
@@holybiblebeliever don’t think he needs to. They both made it through to 6
>>⁷⁷@@Slayfest997
@@holybiblebelieverCole is a natural athlete, he competed against Michael Phelps as a swimmer when he was younger and I think would actually beat him sometimes. I could be wrong on the beating him part but I do believe Dj said that part as well. He is just one of those guys where he can make things look easy.
Feel like Cole’s personality type is the perfect way to measure how good an interviewer is. He appears to be a quiet, humble, run of the mill dude till you realize he has stories from years of operating at a world class, tier 1 level. Great job mike and grateful for you opening up Cole - you’re a good dude.
agreed, Mike is a solid interviewer.
Pretty much a Tier1 guy, no chest beating, no bragging, and honestly he doesn't seem very comfortable answering questions about the things he has done or seen so is reserved and analytical before answering. That's scary! ha!
Your uncontrolled proud Dad face when hearing about the doggies rippin heads off is priceless. Thanks Mike and all the warriors out there, 2 and 4 legged, Happy 4th
Great comment, i saw and thought the same thing lol
Thanks and Happy 4th brother
👍
Watching him and DJ and seeing DJ on the Shawn Ryan Show, I've always been curious of Cole's story. Thank you, Mike.
I am with you Bucky, I have love and respect for all parties but it’s cool to have the Cole story. Thanks again Mike
I have been wondering about Cole also. I follow them and keep up with the Kit they make but have been curious about Cole's story.
🤙🏼🇺🇲
Same.
Cole is also in all of the GBRS vids, but seldom speaks.
@@adamrodgers2377 Hydra system?
@@shable1436 Yes, and they also make a Assaulters Battle Belt and one of the nicest Slings I have used.
His calmness is what makes him dangerous. Him and DJ is the dynamic duo! They didn’t just make it to devgru, you have to be a badass for sure. Thank these guys for their commitment to this Nation.
Are you 12? Your comment screams 12-16 year old boy lmao
He's so soft spoken. He reminds me of Will Chesney in that regard.
Glad their on our side !! happy fourth of July everyone 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸☺
Glad they are on our team
I thought they did make it, on both of their interviews they talk about being on it
Finally someone interviews Cole! He's a straight bad ass
Cole is the silent but never to be underestimated type! So glad he's getting the shine he deserves! Thanks Cole & Mike! 🤘🏼🏴
I admire Cole, but his silence is very intimidating. He's "that dude" you don't ever want to fuck with hahaha
Makes it tough to sit through an interview. Mike had to constantly drag information or even dialog out of him. I can appreciate the silent warrior ethos but if you're gonna do an interview, either lighten up a bit or if it's not your personality, don't do the interview.
@@rck228 everyone’s different, just because you’re the silent type doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do interviews, if it bothers you so much just don’t watch 🤷🏻♂️
@@christianmauro1394 oh gosh.. thanks for clearing that up. Also, I can have an opinion whether you like it or not. And just so you know, I didn't finish the video, but thanks again for letting me know that people are different because until you set me straight, I had no idea. Run along now son and see if mommy will give you a juice box.
@@rck228 sorry I had to clear that up, there are some man children out there who have nothing better to do than to complain in the comment section about someone’s personality traits. But you really got me with the juice box line 🤣
I love that Cole came around and is comfortable putting himself out. What a patriot. I also love DJ but to get to hear and see Cole by himself is great. Mike Ritland, incredible interviewer as always. Thank you guys.
DJ and Cole are a couple of great guys. Being raised around SEALS and other SF guys makes these podcasts a truly amazing experience for me. Couldn't appreciate these gentlemen more.
Agreed. Love the mindset these dudes have and what they exemplify, not all of us can be pipe hitters but we can strive for the best in whatever we do, work to better the group, etc. in our own lives.
Coles personality and calmness just shows how dialed in he must have been as an operator the best of the best 👊🙌
Without a fucking doubt! Really tired of apathetic Americans.
No doubt he’s a serious world class operator, he is not calm at all though. That m’fer is keyed up as fuck in this interview. Cagey as shit.
@@MrDocseidel7 i mean he says it in the interview, he has PTSD
You can tell just by watching his eyes and movements that he's experienced a lot of trauma. These guys need to be National Treasures and have literally everything gifted to them for the rest of their lives. We do nothing for our warriors but throw them away.
Usually just a thanks is more gratitude than warriors want to hear, but it’s nice to say.
What have "our warriors" done other than support war as a business and political corruption as our Freedoms are being eroded by "Domestic Enemies," namely the US Government.
My good will ran out after... well too many examples, the gifting of US war material to the Taliban to start I guess.
Yea, I thought the same thing. I hope he is open to some kind of ptsd treatments. Sean Ryan went through some hallucination therapy. Raves about it.
Agreed
They volunteered.
crazy how Cole still feels the full effects of being blown up in that one story and it hasn't subsided at all. I can't imagine...
Plus everything else. I can’t imagine.
Legit concussions can change someone forever.
It's something you'll never forget.
It was tough to watch his body language. This man has poured his soul for this country.
I served nearly 1 year straight in Iraq back in 2010-2011. I will never forget the feeling of IED’S hitting the trucks of my brothers and eventually my own truck. I felt the wind blast hitting my face for years after the event.
Yessir!! Thank you for your service men! Much love from 🇨🇦
RIP to my grandfather; fought in WWII and was shot through the neck somewhere in Holland. He had to run near a mile to the nearest medic 🏥 🏃🏽 He said the doc told him if he was 3 minutes later, he was a dead man. He lived, and breathed a full, 97-year life 🙌🏽
May God rest his soul 🫡
Fuck yeah god bless his soul indeed man🙏💯
Impressive for sure!
I hope he changed his name after that into "Chad Chadigus"
He should of thrown a tourniquet around his neck 😂 kidding, that's very impressive. The greatest generation
He kept his info super tight. Hard interview
There’s SO much sacrifices made by these warriors. This man is one of a kind. I can’t thank him enough for sharing his life experiences. So many parts of this brought real sadness . The thought of your three year old boy, the sensitive areas talking about RED wings. The flowers to the wives. Just intensely personal moments. The Deisal story and the dogs being harnessed for jumping out of planes. Interesting all of it. The going to court story is just reprehensible. Love these stories. Thank you for your service.
This is what the internet needed. I have been searching for long form conversations with Cole. Thank y'all both for doing this.
YES!!! I been waiting to hear Coles story. Thank you
I give Cole a lot of credit for doing what he did God Bless him and the teams . Thank you to all are VETERANS 🇺🇸🇺🇸✈️
One of the heaviest Mike Drop episode ever! God Bless Cole and his brothers for their incredible sacrifice! I pray that his healing continues and he is blessed with happiness and prosperity.
What a great guy . These tier 1 dudes certainly have a certain calmness about them . Great to hear he respected the uk guys SBS -SAS . 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Cole, thank you for your service. Be sure to smile and laugh often, it's very therapeutic. Wishing you nothing but happiness and peace!!
Mike, you really are one of my most favorite podcast hosts. I love how prepared you are with your questions, especially the fact you give these veterans a chance for us as a listener to know them outside of what they did for our country. One thing I hear most from veterans, especially a former Seal, is they want to be known for who they are, not just what they did in their former job. So, my hats off to you for another wonderful podcast. Cole was awesome to listen to. His life stories, from his childhood, to his time in service, to how his job affected his home life, to his kids, to his now happily ever after with his wife, kids and awesome post-military career, makes me feel proud of him and I've never met the guy. I had to listen to this podcast twice because I didn't want to miss anything Cole had to say. He seems like he'd be fun as shit to hang out and have beers with and listen to anything he has to say. All around good dude. Thanks for having one of the best podcasts out there. Thank you and Cole for your service to our country. God Bless you both in all that you do in this life.
Thank you ma’am!
"The rigorous 2 weeks of MA training"....lol. Mike's humor is always top tier
As always
He's got the Sean Ryan show vibe to it on this video lol I'm loving it,
Your killing it mike!
Truly grateful for the absolute warriors like this. Mike, thanks for finally interviewing Cole. It was a great episode, and it hits the right places. Thank you for your service. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
This was a riveting interview, Mike, thank you both very much for taking the time to make this one. It's very humbling hearing what sacrifices are made to protect us, and we are eternally grateful. God bless all Vets, Happy 4th July my American brothers and sisters.
I wonder if people understand how lucky we are to be able to listen to an operator who started off using iron sights and graduated to red dots etc. The amount of knowledge is just unreal. And to be able to listen to it and learn. We are beyond lucky to have access to this amount of knowledge.
Have Slade on next.....
This
Lol
Hahaha oh the drama
Slade thinks his shit don’t stink
@@oldwarmonger8750 LOL..That seems pretty far from the truth...
Thank you both so much for your service. I'll tell you listening to Cole talk and fight back the tears especially when he talks about his son hit hard. You guys are a very special group of men.
Thanks Cole and Mike! Appreciate this episode a lot.
Good listening to Cole. His honesty and humility is good to hear. Thanks for having him on, Mike.
When he said that his uncle and him look a lot alike 🤣
I can not be the only one that made a joke out of that
Definitely like pulling teeth talking to Cole😂 you did a great job Mike! Keep it up
Nothing worse than being excited to hear an interview and have it go like this. Cole's a great warrior and complete respect but this was not enjoyable for me. Mike is a great host with great questions! This was almost as bad as the interview with Cairo's handler.
Sad to hear you all have never been tier one operators who signed NDAs and had top secret clearances so you can’t talk about 99% of things you did. Also, sad to hear you’ve never been around a true professional who doesn’t like highlighting himself or his career. Talk about humble. Both of you trolls are lucky to have dudes like Cole in your corner.
@@Slayfest997 Oh, that's not it and you are assuming a great deal there pal. No one is saying Cole isn't a bad ass and a warrior. Nobody is ungrateful....just an honest opinion.
Awesome interview, thanks for your service and everything you guys do! Happy birthday America 🇺🇸!!🦅
Super cool watching Coles mind work during all his facial expressions. Really humble guy! 👊🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you to Mike & Cole, awesome interaction between two awesome Americans. Happy Independence Day
Thanks Cole & Mike. Most of thank you for your service and sacrifice. Love you guys
I am retired law enforcement from Tampa / St. Petersburg Florida.
You guys are warriors. I wish Law Enforcement agencies would invest in using guys like you to put Officers through tactical training.
Thank you 🙏 for your service gentleman.
Yeah because we need more militarized police. This is sarcasm.
Boy it's rough watching his face and eyes retelling getting hammered and blown up day after day and looking at pictures of his son...feel for ya brother. Hold Fast Cole..
Great Interview, Ive been curious about Cole's story since GBRS has come around and DJ did Shawn's show. Good work on this one Mike. Getting Cole to answer questions with more than a yes or no seemed to be a challenge. He was obviously a bit uncomfortable talking about stuff he hasnt been able to publicly talk about for close to 20 yrs. You asked questions the right way and worked hard to get him at ease and to open up a little....
Great show, gents. Really cool to hear Cole’s story. Much respect for the both of you.
Mike, you certainly have outstanding interviews, and your guests are second to none. Appreciate what you do.
I like the fact that you take a very structured approach to to your interviews. That, in itself, speaks volumes to how serious you take your podcast.
Thank you Cole for your service and Mike for another great podcast and your service also.
Cole, is legitimately a damn thug! You can see the capability in his eyes when he speaks. I would not accept payment to mess with somebody like that. The pain, and capability of these gentlemen is so wild for my civilian ass to see.. thank you guys. Forever grateful
So glad to here his story been waiting awhile for him to open up. Thanks to both of you for all you did and continue to do!!! God bless
Brilliant interview Mike and Cole was truly one of my favourite interviews. All around so greatly appreciated.
THANK ALLLLLL OF YOU GUYS FOR YOUR TALENT, PERSONAL SACRIFICE, COMITMEN. GOD BLESS YOU GUYS!!!
ONCE AGAIN A FANTASTIC SHOW GREAT GUEST GOD BLESS YOU BOTH AND THANK YOU BAOTH!
Can’t wait to get into this one!!!
Hell yea dude I’ve been waiting on this one.
Can’t believe how young DJ was and already on green team.
To be fair, his dad was a legend on the teams. Not saying he didn't carry his own weight cuz DJ is the ultimate samurai!
@@themarkl0813 total ninja. What a story.
@@themarkl0813 my brother in law is a former marine and now works for the government and he contacted Don to verify a phony seal. He already knew but needed to be sure so he hit Don up. Once he got the confirmation he went off on the guy haha.
dude seems chill as fuck
Great interview. Thank you Cole and Mike for your service and sacrifices.
Thanks Mike Cole is a great interview. Dj and Cole run a great business. He is the silent but deadly type. GBRS is a phenomenal page to follow. Great info. Thanks Cole for all you did for our nation. Mike I’m choking and I can’t get up. Thank you to all the canines tearin up the terrorists
THANKS MIKE! The one I have been waiting for! What a perfect time to release it!
Thank you Cole, for everything, a true hero! Your story is incredible, glad to have guys like you serving this country. Wish you a life of peace and health brother!
Hell yes been waiting all day for this! Let’s go!!!
The best interview! Cole is so down to earth and sincere. Outstanding.
Awesome testimony and thanks for your service! Great job again Mike, keep up the great work!!
Mike Drop is my favorite podcast hands down! I like the way you approach the questions you ask and also the quality of the questions you have! You can really see the gears turning on the guest, very thoughtful questions.
Hell yeah, excited to hear this mans story 🇺🇸
Don’t you ever stop doing this mike. It’s truly the best podcast on UA-cam
shawn ryan show is pretty awesome too
@@MaxFromDk oh yea!!! I for sure catch every one of those episodes as well!!
Excellent interview! Thank you Cole and Mike for your service to this great country!
Mike, you are so good at engaging the guests, preparing, and free styling questions off of what they say. Respect ✊
Outstanding interview! Great questions Mike, Cole bared his soul and gave us an in-depth inside look. Thank you both, and GOD bless. Please keep up the great work.
Another awesome pod cast Mike. Thank you Cole for sharing your story.
I seriously feel like I haven't accomplished much in life or the military after interviews like this. Humbling.
Cole is just another legit badass. Thanks for your service fellas !!
Hell yeah best episode for this weekend 2 badasses hanging out talking
Interviews like this are how you open peoples eyes and change the world, one person at a time.
Finally! Thanks for getting Cole on the podcast Mike. Great interview.
Great conversation! I'm fascinated by these modern warriors. They inspire and motivate me personally to stay current in many facets. I keep imagining these guys coming down a dark hallway, moving as silently as possible toward the objective. I'm so glad they're on our side. Thanks for your service, gentlemen.
Awesome episode! Congratulations Mike on your 100th episode! Thank you both for your service!
Mike, I’ve watched quite a few of your podcasts. You crushed this one! You handled Cole’s story with caution and sensitivity. Impressive. Thank you for your service. Thank you for allowing us a seat to witness these great warriors and their triumphs and defeats. Forever grateful!
Great interview and a huge thank you to you both.
That one may be a standard in his circles, but Mike hit this one out of the park for me this morning. Perfect coffee supplement.: “Who needs donkeys when you are surrounded by jackasses?” Made my 4Jiuly22 morning....
Much respect. Thanks for all the sacrifices made along the way.
Great interview and awesome story! Not very frequent that you hear a true warrior share his experiences like this.
Another killer interview, Mike is so good at keeping the pressure on in a good way to get the stories out. Mad respect to Cole, what a career. Thank you for your service.
Been waiting for cole to do one of these. It's about time!!!
The strain men like Cole and Mike put on and wear for this country is amazing. We need them acting on our behalf and I am thankful. We’d be speaking a different language with out them. You are both appreciated.
*WHAT UP MIKE WHAT UP COLE-HAPPY 4TH OF JULY TO YOU AND YOURS*
Absolutely great pod! Thank you
Ur an excellent host, ur patience and understanding does not go unnoticed. Love ya mike !
Fascinating interview. Thanks Mike and Cole. Keep doing what you're doing. It's appreciated by all true Americans.
Thank you, Mike. This is amazing. I watched this podcast for a second time tonight. I never watch podcasts twice. You're interview skills are amazing. You're the only guy able to talk with people like Cole the way you do. I effing love it! You're a national treasure! Go go go! You are leaving a lasting legacy they will endure and inspire Patriots! Bad ass.
Another great show, I've been waiting to see who would get this show. Mike Drop was a awesome platform to hear Cole's story and perspective.
Such an amazing channel. Thank you, Mike.
Wanted to hear from Cole for a long time, thanks Mike for making It happen.
One of my favorite episodes Mike. Keep up the great work.
Amazing interview--thank you for your service & the continued care of the K-9 Warriors
