Ret. Army Ranger Police Officer Greg Anderson - Part Two | Mike Ritland Podcast Episode 141

- Last week on the podcast, Mike talked to Greg Anderson about his background and military service - after a turn as an Army Ranger with 14 overseas deployments and some additional work in private contracting, Greg stepped into law enforcement as a U.S. Marshall, and later a Police Officer for the Port of Seattle in Washington. All of these moments are things that would define anybody else's biography - soldier, contractor, Marshall, officer, and even Jiu-Jitsu gym owner would all be enough for an already outstanding life. But for Greg, it's all background for one particular day on the job - when he published an Instagram video of a fiery defiance of unconstitutional lockdown orders from inside the very squad car he served the public from every day.

I remember watching that video as soon as it was posted. It was so impactful I can remember it clear as day. Sitting in my patrol car watching traffic. Had no idea it was you or that it went viral. I’m now a huge fan
I called bs as soon as locally owned stores couldn’t open or gyms, but yet wal mart, target, etc could stay open?! No.
Couldn’t go to a meal or service at the churches but if you wanted to build new pews Home Depot was open.
A lot of us conventional guys are down here holding down the line against crazy leaders, I retire in 6 months but I fear for the next generations.
Conventional forces..... too many politicians. It's what happens with a lot of people. I can't imagine how it is now
Can't wait for this contract to be done
@@flybygaming9678 sucks people feel this way, I feel the same if I wasn’t retiring I would get out, I even declined promotion and everything to retire no way I’m staying and co-signing on this bs.
You should give speeches to those children in school who WANT to hear it, even if they disagree. I'm 25 and I sure would appreciate you showing me anything useful or teaching me something being held back from plain ol folk.
For anybody dealing with somebody suffering from memory issues short term is what usually will go first. Long term memories are rooted deep inside the brain and focusing on old memories helps a lot. It can be a great distraction from the persons current state when they recall good memories.
This guy is a HERO and what EVERY police officer MUST do when faced with orders and edicts that violate their Oaths to our Constitution. Its not easy, I know its their careers and many have young families and many financial needs. But this is their time and its happening on their watch. IF everyone of them or the vast majority did this, We can save this Republic!
This guy is the beat guy in the world. If all leaders had his integrity the world would be a better place.
This guy is truly my hero.
Much respect. 11.5 year Army Vet here.
4 year vet army infantry 2011 to 15... much respect
Great guest, great interviewer as usual. Well done Gents!

military people are losers who killed good people for jewish lies
Thank y'all for your service, God bless
Outstanding interview!!
I'm a new subscriber who recently found your channel. Thank you both for all you do and have done. There are countless people in this country who could use a wake-up call, and what you are doing is unbelievably important. It's time to wake up people! Thank you for the much-needed wisdom you share.
Greg is great. Definitely one of the good ones in a surprisingly small group. Thanks Mike
My dad was the same way at the end. He and I talked about way back things like when he was my little league baseball coach and shit like that. He still could recall that. Man you talking about you and your dad doing that literally made me cry my man.
I’m currently trying to get into law enforcement as a police officer in Southern California out of all places and this really offered great insight into whether I’m up for it or not. Thanks!
Please don't you seem like a good dude. Or at least move out of commiforna first. Im in Florida it's pretty ok try law enforcement down here.
I went overseas with Triple Canopy instead of being a cop and now the way things are, I am glad I did that instead. Don't become a California LEO. You violate your oath in this state every time you wake up. Every new law that passes is an infringement.
California law enforcement are still handing out fines to restaurants and issuing more traffic citations than ever before in history, yet they're so under prepared to handle emergencies that they now have automated answering and hold music when you dial 9-11
"Do not hang up, your call is very important to us... Please wait on the line until the next representative is available."
1:28:43 Cops are trained to be "policy enforcers" and the organizational culture is one of victimizing the public for the benefit of the gang. Not to mention, they're so damn afraid that they gang up on defenseless (cuffed) citizens, breaking off their legs, paralyzing them or worse -- all under the guise of officer safety. They think a jaywalking offense is grounds for killing someone. It's ludicrous.
@@RichardCranium321 California is issuing more traffic citations than ever before? Clearly you dont live in California because you would know how bullshit that is. Traffic enforcement has fallen off a cliff in all of California. My guess is you live in one of the welfare states that California funds with its tax dollars.
This is an absolute treasure of information to abide by and to model myself. Although, I'm an ol' veteran and do what I can to stay fit, but I feel I like I have a hole that I can't fill. I'm inspired by you Mike and your guests.
Awesome interview... I bet former USMC Colonel Stuart Scheller would be an amazing guest, i hope you get that guy on here...
He quit
@@jonathanbell8887 yuuuuup
Greg, Mike, and people like them are the people that I wish would run for public office at the federal level.
Awesome show guys. Was really eye-opening and some fascinating information about the Marshall service. I like the way you guys think. We fight to win!
Good to know we still have good men who want to protect our constitutional rights! Thank you!
Levenworth, WA...The fact you knew that place surprised me. Loved the podcast, you both strike me as solid dudes. God Bless you both.
What an awesome dude! Truly an inspiration and motivation to push harder today to be more vigilant and be ready.
Great interview. I went through a lot of similar situations with my agency and he is so right in everything he said.
Contain that moral spine. ALWAYS. Proud of you
Respect both of you guys a ton. I am a jj black belt and now former leo.. best tool I had in my belt probably. Thanks both for your service and leadership in a time when guys need to hear real experienced warrior perspectives! God bless
Jesus came to save you
Awesome interview. Really enjoyed all aspects of what he had to say.
Thank God there is men like him ! I feel the same way!
Two Warriors who are the definition of walking their talk!
Great show guys and sorry to hear about your dad passing dementia is no joke lost my grandmother to it as well. Also kind of crazy what they are doing in some of these major cities reminds me of ocp in robocop at times.
Excellent episode! I will be watching this several more times for all of the golden nuggets shared here!
1997. Pantera/white zombie. Great Southern Trendkill/Astro creep 2000 tour. Augusta, Maine. Right before I left for the Marines. That show was sick. Best concert I have ever seen.
To the people complaining about ADs know that this is a business. Remember UA-cam is FREE for you viewing, you have to PAY for cable and then on top of that still watch ADs. UA-cam itself does not monetize alot of Gun channels or the actual monetization is trash. So understand ADs help continue the show, I think people think that Mike just spends all this money to do it for free. As a content creator myself I had to say this because I understand, I wish viewers would understand and be grateful for the creators putting in the work.
Sheeeeezzzz....I geeked out on the P1 Jiu-Jitsu talk....really geeking out on the P2 talk. Blue belt here loving the journey.
It’s doesn’t just resonate with Americans , I’m CANADIAN and this resonates with me all kinds , and I would imagine that this resonates with people in the UK 🇬🇧 FRANCE 🇫🇷 IRELAND 🇮🇪 RUSSIA 🇷🇺 ETC… this is all kinds of a inspiringly powerful recount of what this man went through . WELL DONE SIR.!!! I have all kinds of respect for what you’ve accomplished . my hat goes off to you sir.
FINALLY! PART 2. This interview will make my Monday morning so much better.
Hey Mike! Never commented, been loving your show and I'm sorry if I haven't connected more, but just a few moments ago, when Greg talked about newsome (little n), ya, I have never been more of a fanboy laughing my ass off and peeing my pants a little with my near 40yr old bladder issues. Godbless you guys and I fucking feel that these long discussions with likeminded, good, competent, solid leaders like you and Greg (and all many other guests) is what we need a hell of a lot more of. I won't go into a long rant, just love you man. My 16 yr old Pit just passed on Christmas day last year (getting tearey eyed writing...) but He was amazing and his name was SnoopDogg (Snoopy to me and my fam) but when I'm ready to take on that kinda intense responsibility again, I'm for sure going to feed him the team dog chow. Thanks so much brother. Godbless American dudes like you guys, fuck everybody else.
Idk how I got here but I’m glad I watched. 13 year vet much respect to y’all.
Hey, first time watching your podcast, really amazing, i enjoyed the whole 2 hours thru and thru, thank you for having this awesome ass dude telling us his life, he seems like a badass!
edit: you also asked phenomenal questions, i was impressed on your ability to keep me hooked with each passing one, thank you.
Gentleman, thank you for the peace of mind. The issues, heart, non compromising selling your soul,🇺🇸 takes one out of solitary confinement.
Good listen. Respect to him for going ranger. Missed my chance and not up for it anymore.
Love it Mike! This has been my favorite episode of Mike Drop so far.
Great interview and person. What he said about martial arts training is so true. As a 4th grader and new in town, I was challenged by the kids at school. I didn't get beat up by anybody because I was a pretty big kid, but then my parents put me into Karate school taught by one of the best, Frank Scalercio who I later in life learned was the first non-Korean to earn a black belt in Korea in his martial art was a great learning experience as well as confidence builder for me even though at that time I was too young to appreciate that part of his Karate life and he never made a big deal out of it. It was more important to him to teach kids and to be a community role model also as a Sonoma Country Sherrif officer in the late 1960s. On and off I continued training throughout my early adult life in various martial arts where I appreciated so many things beyond just the fighting skill itself.
Outstanding interview!
From somebody who doesn't always agree with cops, thinks Marijuana is an individual decision (former and non-supporter of use). Thanks for your service. The country is famined for your forfeiture of position. Thanks for your heart of country, from a former blacksheep of society. I and others are thankful for honored hard fucks such as yourselves for teaching your thoughts, stories, and constitutionality to us uninitiated fools. Cheers. Stay safe and defiant.
The U.S. Military taught me Russian and sent me places long ago. I was fortunate enough to meet some real heroes like Mr. Anderson
Just wow. It's like sitting down with the men to shoot the shit. Much appreciated and I really like the show. Great Job.
Such a good podcast!!! Two hours went by quick
100% agree with Greg about Seattle City Council.
Gotta b my #1 channel. Thanks Mike
Si, great content as always!
We need you all know who have courage and can’t be bought. Our special forces are the men who have the balls!
Greg Anderson’s two-part interview is my favorite to date. Thanks to you both. Edit: Not really sure why Part Two has 129k more views than Part One. Make sure to catch Part One, it will give you a better understanding of what made him the man he ended up being.
Having only seen part two so far I'll have to say I'd love this guy as a deputy and vote for him as a sheriff
I loved this interview. I have never been a cop and I've never been in the military. That said there are numerous things that were discussed that I can and do completely relate to.
I live in wa spend time in lake Stevens and I was proud to donate, and I do it again thank you for saying what you said and meaning
Excellent show man best wishes from the.UK
Excellent guest and interview. This country needs more men like them. Side note, the Kangen filter is awesome for endurance athletes.
Where do you get it?
@@uknowwho613gooogle there's a better system out now
Greg Anderson is a straight badass. Fellow WAtonian here. Respect bro 🫡
Excellent show 😊
Marine and Air Force Veteran here, just randomly found your podcast. I briefly looked into law enforcement as many of my Marine Veteran friends were Sheriff Deputies, so I enrolled to the academy thru my local college. I applied to LA Sheriffs but something in me told me not to go thru with it and I continued serving until my medical discharge. Now I work seasonally/part time for Insomniac at music festivals. I just worked for the second time at festival at The Gorge in Washington, and man, that has got to be my favorite venue I've worked at. Unfortunately, there was a shooting incident at the festival this year in the campgrounds. An Army Ranger who was attending apparently took mushrooms and had a bad trip (according to his statement) and went back to the campgrounds and grabbed his pistol. He ended shooting his girlfriend (she survived) and several other people, killing two women. Fortunately there was an undercover officer (happened to be a Marine Veteran) who was able to stop the shooter before he caused any more harm. But yes, the Gorge is an amazing venue.
Thank you.
Great podcast I’ve 👻watched it all badass 👍
Best pod cast I've heard. Lots of similarities.
That was an awesome podcast!
great video !
Really nice show!
Another great show.
Outstanding podcast
This was bar none one of the best interviews I’ve listened to Mike. He’s an intriguing and charismatic, solid Fucken Dude!! God bless him and his family, and you and yours!🇺🇸👍 wish my military experiences made for cool stories!🤣 they would make laugh, but no gun fire!🤣
Andy F and recently Mike R are helping us. Tribe.
If people bitch about ads then they are missing the point. Keep up the awesome work brother!
Great show! 🇺🇸
Greg is an awesome human being
Thanks!
OMG, I died about the camp 🔥
Retired Fed here and dude, you are so correct. We had a female that couldn’t qualify with her weapon at FLETC, they made us all go outside and take a break while she stayed on the range to shoot. Miraculously, she qualified while we were outside on break. PT at FLETC is akin to earning a participation trophy. There is no passing standard, only have to participate.
I served on a U.S. Marshal’s Fugitive Task Force. When we ran out of high risk warrants to serve, we served other agencies warrants. We once jerked a dude out of his bed at 0500 for an unpaid US Fish and Wildlife unpaid fishing in a handicapped zone ticket. Guy couldn’t believe we were hooking him up for this but to your point, unpaid ticket resulted in a federal warrant.
New sub, good content 👍 That was a sweet Pantera show. Drunk ass ran over my tent, but he did not hit my cooler.
This resonates with me. I'm a police officer, BJJ blue belt and keep an EMT license for medical emergencies which are common in the field. I too, quit my department during covid. I am now employed as a school resource officer. When I was training bjj, a lot of officers were doing it with me and we were getting injured. The department made it clear that they were not going to be responsible for taking care of our injuries and if we were off work, we were going to get stuck with the bills. It's tough sometimes. Especially now. It's harder than ever to be a cop. Nobody likes you. I just try to be a positive influence to the people around me and do my part. I'm a combat vet as well. And I believe strongly in the constitution. It's usually not the individual police officers, it's the upper administration that causes problems.
Simply outstanding podcast!
The guest spoke the truth about getting burnt out. It doesn’t matter how small or large a urban city is. Responding to cockroach infested crack ghetto housing projects on the same domestic every week even in my “small” city of New Haven Ct burns you out in 5 years or less. I was blessed to have been tasked with reinstating the patrol K9 in my city.
It was truly the best experience to work my own personal Dutch Shepherd that I raised and trained since a pup.
The most successful highest award winning Dutchie in Connecticut K9 history.
…… Xander!
You did not have to pay me OT to come in off duty 24/ 7 to try a track or high risk call. I literally worked for free. The sheer joy of working the most solid obedient well trained extreme drive warrior of a dog. As a side note seeing your dog do all out battle with violent suspects is a breathtaking sight. That is what quality genetics and realistic training is all about!
Loved every opportunity to try and use my boy for a possible apprehension. That is what bring a REAL handler is all about! Before K9 I was totally burnt out. While K9 I was invigorated beyond belief. The memories of great work I will take to the grave, with utmost pride.
A great way to end a career in law enforcement. Keep up the phenomenal work you do Mike.
Great Show Gentleman!!!
Awesome story Greg. And I almost blew it off because of the title.
Yay, Officer Greg!
Awesome episode!!! I couldnt wait for part 2 after watching part 1.
Hey Mike, As a US Forest Service LEO in Idaho, I’d like to share with you a day in our boots. No disrespect to the USMS, but there’s some much needed clarification.
How should I go about looking for a jiu jitsu dojo? Unfortunately I'm out of my home state alot for work.
Great respects with the ad comment
This is what america is lacking, in my opinion...
Decency,respect, and humbleness
I try to support this show in many ways that i can
Books, t shirts ,and mabye more to come👍
Love the podcast too ofc
Where did Greg park his wheelbarrow that he carries his balls in? Love this dude.
Thank you for the adds mike, gotta pay for the show somehow.
He kinda looks like the undertaker
For what it's worth you've the fortitude to say what you feel. No fake news here.
A former Ranger Regiment guy with solid intellect. Miracles happen......, Great interview,
I have been struggling to get a 7mm rem mag tikka t3x lite to consistently shoot sub moa. After nearly 400 rounds of data on 5 shot groups at 200y it averages at 1.31MOA. So what you are saying pencils out.
This is the MAN show!
Excellent and thank you and all your guests Mike!
Killer interview Mike…
Excellent show! Great energy between you guys! ❤️🇺🇸
Bro I saw Pantera with white zombie in San Diego 98 while I was in the Corps! Avenged Sevenfold is my favorite out now! Great live shows!
Just seen Pantera and lamb of god in manassas va last month was a awesome show
Shamless plug for some metal... The John Candy. Wild fun shit
Im fortunate to work for a PD where we didnt enforce anything. Our mayer was very open about not doing it. My county also defied the state lockdown and the prosecutors were not prosicuting any of the cases either. But i love hearing stories like this when guys give the middle finger and do not go against their oath.
Great interview. Keep up the good work and interesting guys Mike. Keep on grinding Greg. Fight the good fight
Re your academy, culture and your teacher from L.A.:
I think great teachers are always thrilled when the student goes on to be better than they themselves. That may be the real gift. Kinda like teach a man to fish.
God I love this podcast
"Young guys wouldn't know this" Hears Yahoo Messenger instantly thinks im old....
So awesome and based how you handled your father’s last weeks. Love it.
Awesome show this guy was great loved the stories he’s awesome man amazed me how such a hardened criminal in the infamous Mexican mafia and a hardened tier 1 operator marshal actually have more in common then you would think hahha and that part where the Mexican guy liked heavy metal haha is very common in the Mexican community I know more Mexicans that love rock, heavy metal then ones that don’t hahha and just like this gentleman said where he went Right the MM guy went left and they could of been homies if he didn’t shows were all human and despite skin tone were all the same and have more in common then we think this man is awesome definitely a fan
