      He's also just an incredibly good interviewer in general, especially for someone not typically "media-trained". Better than most of the clowns on TV these days.

      It was interesting watching Theo in this interview. A little awkward. Typically I could imagine Jocko goofing on a guy like him, could definitely feel that undercurrent, but he really got a lot out of Theo. A lot Theo bearing his soul and a lot of uncomfortable truths without the humor. Pretty cool.

      The fact that jocko laughed that off instead of making it uncomfortable shows how much jocko likes Theo, he brought him on knowing fully well that Theo would make an outrageous joke like that. It’s kinda like Theo’s way of testing if someone is trustworthy.
      Watch Theo’s podcast where he had jocko on and it was totally different, jocko busts his balls a little at first until he gauges Theo’s style.
      Knowing Theo a lot better in this interview, Jocko is aware that if he just takes a step back and gives Theo a platform. This shows how much humility Jocko has and how he can build someone up given that Theo has struggled with figuring himself out in the past.

I’d go as far to say that he’s on another level of intellect to be able to explain anything in a simple way which makes it hilarious.

    The more I hear Theo talk about his mental struggles, the more I see myself in him. I can relate to feeling self conscious of having an older father and a dysfunctional family that’s very different from my peers’s family. I understand that unwelcomed feeling and never feeling like I’m enough no matter how much others reassure me I’m good. His vids on his YT channel has been therapeutic as I struggle to overcome the traumas of my past alongside Theo.

    Man Theo is like the new a Southern poet. When I watch his podcast he’ll always come up with a phrase or way of saying something that just floors me. I think “Only Theo would describe something in that way.” And I love when he has normal everyday people on like a lady truck driver or a plumber. They always have such amazing stories. Sometimes funnier than some of the comedians or celebrities he has on.

    My Dad wasn’t quite as old as Theo’s but he was in that kind of age range. It’s actually very comforting to hear someone else talk about it, because it’s a pretty rare situation, but it has such an enormous impact on growing up and your outlook on life.
