- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- Nick was born in Hollywood Florida. He spent his childhood training to be Batman and planning his next big adventure. He grew up on the move and lived in 5 states by the time he was twelve. This only made him more adaptable and comfortable with integrating into any environment. His teen years took a turn and were rocky to say the least. Nick was forced into juvenile detention at the age of twelve. After shaking his past Nick needed to find a new direction.
Nick joined the Marine Corps at 19 but not without a fight. Because of his troubled youth, Nick had to seek legal counsel just to be accepted. He suffered from a wrist injury within his first week of boot camp. He spent five and a half months in basic training but graduated company honor grad. It was his perseverance through adversity that set the tone for his future and a foreshadowing of things to come.
Nick went on to become a 12 year Special Operations Marine Corps veteran with Marine Reconnaissance and Marine Special Operations Command. He has deployed in support of OIF/OEF and other places all over the world. Has trained foreign police, military, and militia in several countries.
His military career prepared him for successful leadership and strategic operational planning. Nick is the founder and CEO of Alexander Industries as well as a successful adventure + informational UA-cam channel with his partner and wife Alison Capra. From adventures to Iceland to concealed carry handgun tips, this channel is a peak into Nick's daily life as a VLOG.
A life of adventure and excitement. Nick resides in North Carolina with his wife and business partner of Alexander Industries, Alison. They co-own of Johnny Slicks an organic grooming essentials company and The Agoge for personal training and coaching. Nick is a self-published author Ex-Communicated Warrior, 7-Stages of Transition, and co-author of fitness training books: USMC Prep, Recon Prep, and Marine Raider Prep. He has two beautiful daughters and one son. He spends his free time on the water or traveling to see his family in Greece.

Fuck yeah. Loving more Marine Operators getting exposure. Rudy Reyes would be a great guest, too.
Loved Generation Kill!
Someone needs to meme Andy's expression at 6:21.
"I got a few follow up questions" freakin awesome
Highlight of the pod today!!
Andy had to say a few times!😂
Andy needs to get Rudy Reyes, Roger Sparks, Cody Alford, Ryan Stevens, Ron Holmes and Bryan Lloyd on his podcast show. That would be soooooo AWESOME!!!!!!!!! 👊👊👊👊
Of course Nick was the original Florida Man! 😂
These two dudes are the best together, they both have the same vibe. We need more of this!!!
Nick is an absolute DAWG. Another banger, Andy.
Fuck yeah love when you have Marines on. Semper Fi
Greek God Daddy Vibes 🫶🏻
🤘🏻🇬🇷🤝🏻🇺🇲🤙🏻
Justice for Michael!!!!😂 Great interview, keep ‘em coming!!!
Great podcast, as always! Made me smile and laugh so much. Also nuts to hear some stories like the Covid shut down/ raid… etc 🙄 🤯😫. Good on you Nick for pushing the envelope. Respect
I remember watching the video of Nick's gym raid back in prime COVID days... shitty man... another great pod though!
Get Rudy Reyes and Cody Alford up on in here Andy! They will be great interviews! 😁😃👍👊💯🥋🥊
And Jason Lilly
@@joshcasey8519 Right!😃👍
woohoo, my favourite SEAL with my favourite Greek brethren from across the pond!
Love it brother. Still watching from Indiana. If you’re ever close I wanna buy you a beer and shake your hand.
“My only regret wasn’t killing more of those motherfkers” -Andy Stumpf.
Thank you for dealing soo much death. And god bless you for your sacrifices.
Good stuff Nick! Glad to see you on here. I’ve followed since your long hair days. 💪🏼
Have you no boundaries/limits about "tolerating" people who are pedophiles? There are many trying to "normalize" and validate these crimes against children. Should you just sit back and say nothing? I applaud you had on Deliver Fund members twice. Time to make a stand.
Excellent conversation!🇺🇸
Keep up the good work, Nick of challenging men who need it!
love the top of the dresser storage. drives my wife crazy also. good to know its more common than odd.
Never had a problem accessing your page. That said, I’m in total agreement with the the cleansing properties of the “light of day”. Unfortunately, there are always going to be a substantial percentage of the public (right and left) that are intellectually unable and/or politically unwilling to listen to the “opposition”, and to even consider that the opposition are Americans as well with the same rights that they cherish.
Semper Fi
Andy Stumpf, Jocko Willink, Tim Kennedy and others. I have liked post and podcasts from all these and when I have gone back and looked the likes were gone. Recently had 5 post in a row on Jocko's page that some how just disappeared. Also about a year and a half ago I had over 50 likes on Tim Kennedy's page that just disappeared. I've also had a few podcasts of Andy's that the likes have just vanished. There's definitely some wacked out shit going on.
Love it Nick... placed into the '01' MOS... aka Remington Raiders... good stuff Marine! Great pick Andy.
I remember when Nick Devil intro'd Cody and got him right before he got out. #WeDefyTheNorm
Andy, you have some of the best podcasts! This one was great. Such a cool guy with great ideas and values! Thanks for sharing! You are the best, Andy!!! Never let anyone tell you differently……❤😊
As per usual standards, another stellar episode.
Heck yes, been following Nick since I saw him with Nick Bare the first time talking about military stuff!
Mint episode Andy. Thanks Nick, your a very interesting guy to listen to. All the best to you and your family going forward from down here in Southern Australia.
I buy six bags a whole bean coffee a month. If I had the extra jingle I'll be an Exclusive coffee member so that I could have this month's bad a** bag of roadware or coffee. I'm slowly collecting all the bags and plastering them throughout my house. Good decorations from a good company
Dangit, Andy. I didn’t need Dirt Reynolds in my life. I blame you for the next 40 hours of this work week that I TOTALLY WASTE. I love my new Cleared Hot shirt though so I guess it’s a push. Touché, sir.
4 grand a week.. at 16.. 🤔
been waiting for this podcast to happen!
Nick is a BAMF!
Great episode! Thanks.
Andy is one of the best podcasters around. At 40:55, Nick talks about SgtMaj Macavoy telling him "Don't be a pussy, go Recon". In the 80's, SSgt "Moose" Macavoy put me through Indoc/Selection for Force Recon. I was in crutches after that grueling session. Ranger school or combat dive school had nothing on Indoc. There were about 20-30 of us that day. Only 4 got selected. "Moose" Macavoy is a legend in Force Recon. I see him during reunion. Absolute stud.
You have no idea the physical toll that three vasectomies have on a person! Snip snap! Snip snap! Snip snap!
I remember when they were going to close down the liquor stores and pot shops here, it lasted 2 hrs. BTW I have been saying Gambling and Drug Usage (and even Drinking) is seeming to become more and more, and sex selling. All the pleasures to distract from life. Like I didn't read the book in school like I should have, but talking of it, I quickly see Brave New World coming true
Speaking of, where you have the husband doing it for the family, could that be the Marine mindset?
1:00:00 We forget how much of a badass Andy is sometimes.
What are you referring to? It's just Nick talking at that part.
Blessing in disguise damnit. Nothing to do with the skies. I promise. Sorry I had to lol. I did it for the algorithm I promise! Great interview as always!
The Stinky Gi crowd needs some Laundry Sanitizer like Lysol....Add it in during loads with Jits gear....
This was a great listen. 👍
The Navy Seal calendar shit had me dying 😂😅😂 Half the fleet was probably jerking it to that calendar.
I had this happen to me with a CZ82, it fired a 3 round burst. Don’t know why, and the RSO on the range I was on looked at me like I was a criminal.
Is Nick wearing his wedding band on his right hand? Andy's hat logo isn't backwards so I'm assuming the camera isn't mirrored...
I broke my leg at boot camp and went to MRP for 2 months as well. It sucked balls, but ended up returning to training and graduating with A Co. 1st BN PLT 1036 in May 2006. Honor Platoon beeeches, ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh RAH! YAT-YAS
Thank you.
You are speculating on youtube's CEO. She essentially retired for personal reasons.
Andy "Warrior Pussy" Stumpf lmao great stuff as always!!
At about the 1:52 mark the volume degrades to an inaudible status. Everything was fine until that point.
Would love to see Raiders Prime Hall and Don Tran on the podcast. Former Raiders, founders of deep end fitness and underwater torpedo league. Mike Rowe from dirty jobs would be an awesome podcast as well.
This was actually meant like heartfelt oh sorry but she was here so fucking amazing
Get Jason Liley on!! Yall have a similar sense of humor and would make a great podcast
Take all your t shirts that are given to you and make them into quilts. Boom problem solved
Another great one Andy and Michael!
Andy you are going to make Michael seek help. Great that he has a Mic. Keep crushing it!!
There was a bayonet course in 2010 still. Blood blood blood
JOIN OR DIE!!
🇺🇸💪🏿💪🏽💪🏻💪🏾🇺🇸
The 46 Nick talks about is from my unit HMM-364.
Chef Bud Taylor is legit! CBT Burgers are phenomenal.
👍🏼
Look for the two red pieces of tape.
Best podcast episode I've ever listened to
About fucking time!!
that's me now live in a van
Lmao, love Andy
This is nice!!!
Yes!!!!!! 💦
👍💪
A major reason why many within LGBTQIA+ seem non-inclusive is down to one thing; Fear. Many just don’t feel “normal” or “safe” around someone that’s “different” than them because they are used to being bullied by those that are different than them.
Edit: marathon runners even at the elite level have been known to evacuate their bowels mid run, hahaha
Edit: I can’t believe you didn’t offer Nick any damn crayons for sitting down for so damn long.
Andy what brand shirt is that. Love that logo and design.
Fieldcraft Survival!
@@TheTfraze thank you!
@@vh5cker have you not followed Mike Glover at all? It's his company
YASOOO
How have none of you SEALS w/ podcasts not interviewed MrBallen yet?
🚨 Zaddy Alert 🚨
I'm disapointed that Stumpf and Jocko will prolly never call Goggins to their podcast.
I get why Jocko doesn't like him cuz David was there for himself kind of but the man had demons and mission.
And that is to create absolute animal of himself and forge his mind.
Who the fuck fail and goes again again to Buds and passes.
Marcus Lutrell is Navy Seal and legend and he and his brother who is also navy seal hang with David and talk highly of him.
Stumpf is more open minded so maybe he will have 1 on 1 with Goggins in future
Why won’t Jocko have him on?
@@srsmedic8285 cuz Goggins isn't team guy like Navy seal are exactly...also cuz he never served in Avg
@@zorzstankovic4364 Maybe Googins was avoiding combat missions.
I certainly don't have any inside knowledge and don't know any of them personally but overall from what i've read or heard I don't think Goggins is well thought of by too many people in the spec ops world.
