I'd love to hear you read your book 📖 on UA-cam, listening to you and other veterans share their experiences in life has helped me more than anything in life. Thank you Mike
I like the 'read a chapter' video session idea. I'll buy the book anyway and read it again. Your chapter recap and thoughts to end each session would be excellent.
Mike. I wanted to put my vote in for you to read your book as part of Mike Drop. I think hearing the book with your voice and inflections is half of the power of your message. Thank you for opening up topics for my brothers and I to think on and talk about and grow as real men trying to do what is right in these trying times.
Is this going to be a reoccurring thing? 7am est Andy Stumpf Q&A and now a 11am est Mike Ritland Q&A! Best day of my life! Will you woo us with a crossover Q&A with you both?
Hubba hubba hubba the two together that's a fucking combination to chock your self to. Haha please get together man!!! I'll have a great Friday all day if you continue to do this
@@MikeRitland i have a dog question: do you know how to get them to stop destroying seat belts? not sure if this is an issue a lot of people run into, but figured it's worth asking. Mine keeps cutting them if they're obscuring his view (example, if they're hanging across the window of the car); otherwise he doesn't seem to care. Tips? also, i'm kinda curious if other people have run into this issue before.
I listen to your podcast to and from work and would appreciate you reading your book on Mike drop. I hope if you do the people who listen will also purchase a copy. Thank you for your service.
Mike, really interesting point about social media and verifying identity. I have struggled with how to fix it but your analysis is a great place to start.
First of all, thank you training me to train my two Australian Shepherds. My life, and theirs is so much greater because of it. Second, read the book as a Mike Drop podcast as you suggested. Please. Third and last, I really enjoy all of your shows. Your words of wisdom are timeless, your interviews are exceptionally interesting, and your humility is priceless.
I would be very interested in hearing you read your book! Mike, it would be an absolute honor🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Reading gives me migraines very quickly, so I listen instead of reading books. It really would be an honor Mike🙏🏼🇺🇸🙏🏼
As a pod cast only available listener. Chapter from your book would be tasteful. Thank you for your service and experiences. Keep up the great influence. No one is perfect but we can make a difference. Inspire. Again thank you.
Enjoyed the Q and A.. I would like to see an episode of you working your magic on the smoker/grill from beginning to end. Specifically the beef ribs we keep hearing about from your guests.
I love the idea of audio book. Already bought it and read it twice. I don't know what you'd have to say after every chapter. You tell it like you see it and that's why I've read it twice!!
There are so many comments in here that you probably wouldn't even read it but thank you wholeheartedly for answering my question. I had a hard time having to watch a colleague who was a 120% beta male ruin his life and any advice I gave did not stick. You were spot on! And I was dead wrong. You're like an older brother I did not have. Thank you mate and as I have said before, if you ever come to EU, let me know and I would love to buy you a beer and roll with you through the night. Enjoy your weekend mate!
I'm much more likely to get the book with you reading it than either reading it in printed form or as an audio book, especially if you aren't narrating it anyway. Doing it on Mike Drop episodes would be awesome!
I’m sure you’ve heard but Shield Arms has 15 rd mags for the 43X and 5 round extensions that you can add to make it 20 total and still a small profile. The mags work well. I’ve got 1000 rounds through mine cause I was worried about ftf or fte issues but none.
23:27 My wife is a vascular surgeon and we have 2 kids, 2 and 4. I am a dentist. We are both 35. It takes a lot of time and work, but anything is possible if you’re willing. There is always more time in each day when you fix priorities…but never enough time if you don’t want it bad enough.
What would you do with your life if you were medically disqualified from joining the military, police force, fire department, basically anything service related and physical? I tried to join the Canadian Army last year, but I failed a hearing test and later learned that I have Otosclerosis. There's a surgical procedure available, but it's a bad idea if I want to jump out of a plane in the future - which I WANT to do and have done when I was younger (I'm 39).
Absolutely about the chapter read. Already have the hard copy, but coming from the voice of the writer and including afterwards ideas and thoughts would really enhance the experience.
Check out shield arms, they make a 15 round mag for the 43x without a extension. I saw a few fieldcraft guys use them so I tried it on mine, zero malfunctions.
Dude awesome! I can read your book but, may be cool to hear it from you live. Maybe try a chapter or two. I will definitely watch/ listen. Good luck and thank you for what you do and have done.🙊🙉🙈🐵👍✔️
Shout out Mike I’m pretty sure your the guy that stole my lunch money not mad I’m working through it lol 😂 I can’t believe the the days that you and soldiers like you put in day after day and asked only to serve to the best you could much love and respect I would be proud to clean your kennels and remember some of us actually support what you DO
Story time with Mike - Yes! A smoking jacket, a leather wingback chair, room lit by an old bankers lamp with smoke curling up from nearby cigar or pipe, "Good evening. Let's unf*ck America... chapter 1." I'm all in.
That dog/wife trunk "opening line" you use... 🤣🤣 that is exactly what America needs right now. A good hearty laugh. Granted theres so much crap going on right now, you cant swing a dead cat without hitting 5 things that are so ridiculous, they are comically disgusting and disturbing.
Mike, if I may, a comment and a two part question for your next Q&A segment: I read your "hard cover" copy in two days and personally don't need you to read it to me. My sphere of buds have all ordered it after I told them to "choke themselves" when they asked me to pass my copy onto them. As for the Pista.. (I roll in a 72 Mustang 351C ragtop with no racing stripes, etc) so I'm curious as to if: 1) You would rather have your Italian stallion be subdued in a more tacticool demeanor without sticking out like a turd in a punchbowl, and... 2) I get "track" is the name of your rocket, but if you were the lead engineer on that car, what name would you have given it besides a Pista? I appreciate all the shit you've done and are doing. Go Team Dog! 🇺🇸💪🏻
I think you reading the book would be great. I was given the book as a Xmas present. I started reading it at 10 am and finished it around 6 that night . I have recommended it to dozens of people, to the point they would probably like to remove the option for me to choke myself and do it for me. I honestly believe this should be the Bible to intelligent, intellectual conversation. Obviously I’m bias on this as I agreed with literally the entire book. Many of your topics were identical to values I had thought of prior to reading it. I told my wife that the book encapsulated my thoughts to where I could’ve written it myself other than the fact I wouldn’t be able to articulate it nearly as well as you did. With the more I type it becomes obvious I’m not a writer or capable of being an author. With all my long winded response, I think it’s extremely beneficial for you to make any attempt at getting your well thought out messages to the masses. Love the UA-cam content and as you can tell really enjoyed the book. Thank you for your service .
As a dog trainer, what are your thoughts on pitbulls? I have a female rescue pitbull and get a lot of heat from people out there are various fronts but we have found her to be the most sensitive and caring dog we have ever had. Not talking about from a working military standpoint, just as a dog.
Hey Mike .. love your Podcast! You did one … testing at what point you would “shoot” … kind of a thought home invasion. Can u tell me that Episode? Love to share. TY BADASS for serving!
I like the idea of you reading the book on here. I’ve got the book but having you Summarize after each chapter would be pretty cool. Goggins did something similar with his audio book.
Nice to hear your opinions on different things and all of then you expressed them with your foot on the ground. About dogs...I love all them. Specially Vigilance Elite one, Shawn Ryan.
Thanks Mike love your shows, you are one of the best I've heard.Iwould like to hear you read your book live on the u tube.on a different note is there any way that the special ops community could come together to support Green beret Jeremy Brown,who I think is being held as a political prisoner? When I was a young Paratrooper the men at 7th group were like our big brothers,I know there are many Veterans that would love to help this MAN.
i would add why you havent got an audible version of your book yet. Way easier to access than buying a book. even if it isnt as quite as easy to digest
Have you been to Norway ? maybe at military winter training ..we used to receive seals every winter (I was at the naval hunter command) loosely translated .. ritland is a Norwegian place name.regards Kenneth
I’d love it if you read the book via podcast and gave some more insight after each chapter. And I’m saying this after I bought the book so not just a freeloaders opinion!
I have found the only way for me to blow off anger or just get shit out of my system is to drive like I am trying out run the devil or blast through the woods or make a lot of dangerous and stupid decisions on my bike while staying at a high rate of speed or if I need to clear my head take along relaxing ride on chopper or woods on dirt bike and I have found those ways are the only thing that works but after a couple of bad crashes when I was younger that either know your environment and think a head or just make sure u won’t feel it if it all goes wrong
Dude does origin not sponsor you anymore? I noticed you didn’t mention their jeans and also no products and you didn’t mention your podcast you did with jocko? Some kind of fallout?
I'd love to hear you read your book 📖 on UA-cam, listening to you and other veterans share their experiences in life has helped me more than anything in life. Thank you Mike
Yes definitely do the reading of the book! Thanks for always providing great content! Thanks for your service sir! Salute from North Carolina🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I think mini Mike Drop episodes with you reading chapters from the book would be outstanding.
Reading the book would be great! I am so tired at night I fall asleep and drop my kindle.
It would be AMAZING to have you read your book and hear additional thoughts from you!
Love to hear you read the book! Appreciate what you do for our K9 warriors!
I Definitely like the idea of you reading your book on the podcast. Keep up the great content man!!!
Following along with you while you read the book would kick ass.
I like the 'read a chapter' video session idea. I'll buy the book anyway and read it again. Your chapter recap and thoughts to end each session would be excellent.
Looking forward to this one! Your books are a really good read! Keep Killin' It!

Mike, really interesting point about social media and verifying identity. I have struggled with how to fix it but your analysis is a great place to start.
Dude the Dr. James Mitchell podcast was probably my favourite one you’ve put out that was unreal the stories that guy has are wild.
One of my favorites also. I have watched it more than once. Thomas Pecora was also a favorite.
You reading your book would be fucking amazing. Getting your insight as you read would be priceless.
First of all, thank you training me to train my two Australian Shepherds. My life, and theirs is so much greater because of it.

I would love to have you read the book. Your book! How to unscrew America! Thank you Mike!

from alberta oil sands keep it up mike . love to see more your dogs
Story time! 👏
Hell yes Mike! Read the book!
Always a good day when you drop a new one

Awesome video Mike, recently got hooked on your content and learning about you from Shawn’s podcast was great, both episodes at that👍🏻🇺🇸🤘🏻
Cant wait for the ne t reading. Just ordered the book. Thanks Mike
Would be great to hear the book from you. Thanks for all you do. Good to hear like minded people
You’re a wise, cool dude. I hope when I get older I’m like you.
There are so many comments in here that you probably wouldn't even read it but thank you wholeheartedly for answering my question. I had a hard time having to watch a colleague who was a 120% beta male ruin his life and any advice I gave did not stick. You were spot on! And I was dead wrong.

Thanks for answering my question.
The whole Q&A was very entertaining and straight to the point.
Very cool.
"Don't threaten me with a good time" Hilarious
Mike, please read the book!!!!!!!!!!
I like the idea of reading your book on Mike Drop.
Cheers, mate 👍🍻🏴.
We appreciate you mike
Reading the book a chapter at a time be great.
I'm much more likely to get the book with you reading it than either reading it in printed form or as an audio book, especially if you aren't narrating it anyway. Doing it on Mike Drop episodes would be awesome!
Heck yeah I’d watch you read your book
Beating up on cars, FAST street bikes and my old reliable dirt bikes is relaxing to me too, cops can be an issue but on ramps are good!!!
Loved this. Thanks for the time spent on these, Mike. 💪
