I was stationed at the border in the Eagle pass area with the Army before Covid. Your viewpoint on the subject changes when you experience it firsthand. Border Patrol has my full support.
Excellent discussion. I’m excited to read his book. His analogy about comparing the border to your home was spot on. This really opened my eyes about the border and the danger, the stress, the emotional aspect of the job.
What's up Vallero! Good to see another kid from the SFV making some waves. Your life story is so rich with blessed life and family stories, that I almost forgot you were a Ranger. Respect, Vargas, mad respect.
It was awesome to hear Rocco’s story, I found him through UA-cam many years ago and he ended up following me on IG when we was looking to join the Mayans I’m assuming because he likes my Harley DYNA. Rad dude with a great story.
Excellent podcast Jocko! I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Vinnie’s story! Just want thank you both for your service and I am looking forward to getting Vinnie’s book. God Bless.
I think it was interesting early on how Jocko validated his fears in Ranger Batt on deployment. When he talked about how hard it must have been to be in those situations and have the intense fear of death and desire to live. Now I did know a few guys who went AWOL right before deployment (deserted), and their reasons boiled down to "I didn't join the Army to die" This always felt odd to me because I never expected to survive the Army. From the day I signed and shipped, I maintained the attitude of "I'm likely gonna die, but I'll make em earn it". Don't get me wrong, I was scared often anyone who says they weren't is lying. Jocko and a lot of the guys he's had on here seemed to be the same way. So in this respect I suppose this guy was more brave than both me and the guys that went AWOL/deserted. He not only wanted desperately to live, but he did the job til the end of his contract too. Initially, I thought it was kind of a weak way of thinking but he fought through it and got out when he knew he should.
Was in Malone. Just a couple miles from Danemora the day that happened. On my way through town before sun up. All sorts of military style vehicles and personnel everywhere. And I had no idea what was going on until later. 😂
This guy Vincent Vargas was hilarious in the early days of the Drinkin‘ Bros Podcast. I remember him in the article 15 clothing guys used to crack me up Wayback in the day shout out to El Paso Texas.
Great interview as always. In regards to Boarder Policy, I'd like to comment. Its very simple. The Boarder shall be closed to illegal entry and if your first action is to break THE LAW, you must be removed from the country, not excluded from future entry but informed of the process and deported. If you have an actual asylum claim, you shall follow international law and seek refuge in the first country where your asylum can be granted. That does not mean the country you WANT, but the country where you can actually find refuge from the actual threat. Poverty is not a reason to seek asylum and the standard is legally defined. Secondly, our Immigration process shall be reformed. Those who seek to immigrate are caught up in the bureaucracy of the federal government. This has to be better. Yes, there are many circumstances which lead people to Immigration. The Law must be followed and the government is not following the laws. An invasion of the USA is happening and this is NOT a debate. We must know who, what, when and where immigrants are during the process. You have NO rights. Rights are reserved for citizens and limited rights under legal visas. Our Immigration process has many flaws but The Citizens of the USA are owed a sovereign boarder and the laws must be enforced, even if they arent perfect.
Hi Jocko, another awesome share. Truly. Modern history. I just wanted to suggest, because I know you are an open minded dude, doing a podcast on Joan Of Arc. She was quite pivotal in a rather fierce war and her leadership skills must have been exceptional. There is no way of understating the risks she took and paid for. Point being, she rallied the troops. How do you do that? Regards from Sheffield uk
She was the standard bearer and symbol. She was used, poorly, for others gains and then tossed aside when no longer useful. There are a couple decent books covering what is known. Forget the titles as it has been a very long time since I read them.
Hey Jocko & Echo, is there anyway u can put in the option for closed captioning. It would make it easier for a lot of people to keep up if they have hearing problems. I would be very grateful if u could! Cant wait 2 get into this episode, its always an awesome dsy when a new episode comes out of the hands down best podcast that exists!! ❤ from Kansas
Jocko what are your thoughts on autism and adhd, how it effects discipline, training and life in general I agree on your words, and for the majority it’s simple to follow and progress Though I feel for those with mental conditions such as autism and adhd, adjustments need to be made and exceptions on mindset, I’d just like to hear your input on this
As a second generation Mexican, I relate so much to that feeling of not belonging anywhere. I am too American for my mexican friends and family, and i am too mexican for my white friends. Lol.
I don't agree that MOST people are arguing from the extremes of either no border enforcement or shutting down immigration altogether. There are those who don't believe in borders and those who want legal immigration to work and illegal immigration to be shut down. There isn't any statistically relevant group of voters in America who think that we should just shut the border to everyone.
If it’s so hard to figure out how to get our immigration problems fixed, maybe we just need some time to think. A football team gets ready for a game in advance so do the staff and vendors at the stadium. They don’t just let fans in before the game and tell them yeah everything at concessions is free for you. When the people who paid for tickets come they can cover your bill. No these things are planned because they are important. Not unlike immigration policy. Close the border down entirely with military! Just until we have a f^&*ing plan! Then resume normal operations. We don’t owe anyone immediate entry. They can wait.
Bro that shit’s more common than you’d think. A lot of us came from parents who thought learning this country’s language was more important than speaking Spanish…and they were right.
Am I the only one that thinks it’s bad that he was shooting at kids trying to kill them for crossing an imaginary line? Ethics in question within the first couple minutes
Previously a victim of his family member so when did I tell you.. in DALLAS.. A physical threat on me . And he is in custody.. so.. interrogations started on his.. bag, ruffle, stuff.. heads in a coin toss.. His American family member on the property, and so.. yeah. 😌I knew it would happen.. 🤷 he sealed his own fate with his own family bc she was way more powerful.. . Inside for days and days and I'd... Our report would read do DNR for his (absolute CROW MAGNUM medical directives years and year ago on him) now evidences at the Marshalls detox office. I was a big dog on Mexican prisoner of war in the same cell as myself. Bark and bark and bark..she was silent.. Folds of honor.. and yes I'd be speaking and speaking though right to remain silent.. 🔕 see and I for this reason Shots fired outside 1
Naval POTUS not in my location.. so we get the Marine CORPS general last breaths.. since 1809 Marine command to bleed lol . No way I would. Looks like humanitarian relief effort for Africa, Australia, and yeah NO ANGEL OF MERCEY Chocolate not a DUTCH.. active listener. SO COM.. at the hospital.. so I by a long shot. Could say.. whip on em to stand down. .. no they manipulate for entry into my apartment. Bug audio pulled from the new medical systems education and practicing rooms
Why do you always autoplay on my UA-cam. I like you but not interested in content. Bad you tube algorithm, and I pay premium, but can’t say don’t play this.
42:27 Not even 1/4 in and this is already one of my fav Jocko episodes. This is HEAVY, filled with wisdom to be absorbed.

Did you get any gunfights there ?
Ordered the book. Eagerly awaiting its arrival. Thanks Vincent
Thoroughly enjoyed 408 - Thank You
Great one!! Genuine guy. Thank you for continuing this inspirational/ meaningful platform. God bless all of the men and women who have served.

#1 thank you for your service
At what point will these brave strong warriors start to talk about the corruption of their leaders and the poison of the global war machine?
It was awesome to hear Rocco’s story, I found him through UA-cam many years ago and he ended up following me on IG when we was looking to join the Mayans I’m assuming because he likes my Harley DYNA. Rad dude with a great story.
Thanks again Tony. I am 97 days Post Op. my new knee is coming along nicely and I am excited!
Excellent podcast Jocko! I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Vinnie’s story! Just want thank you both for your service and I am looking forward to getting Vinnie’s book. God Bless.
Number one lesson from.the border. There is none
Guess that makes patrolling it an easy job
I know, why do we even have a “Border Patrol”? 😂
Im not scared of him...and still dont trust him ...idc but you know that
Its true.
I think it was interesting early on how Jocko validated his fears in Ranger Batt on deployment.
When he talked about how hard it must have been to be in those situations and have the intense fear of death and desire to live.
Now I did know a few guys who went AWOL right before deployment (deserted), and their reasons boiled down to "I didn't join the Army to die"
This always felt odd to me because I never expected to survive the Army. From the day I signed and shipped, I maintained the attitude of "I'm likely gonna die, but I'll make em earn it". Don't get me wrong, I was scared often anyone who says they weren't is lying. Jocko and a lot of the guys he's had on here seemed to be the same way.
So in this respect I suppose this guy was more brave than both me and the guys that went AWOL/deserted. He not only wanted desperately to live, but he did the job til the end of his contract too. Initially, I thought it was kind of a weak way of thinking but he fought through it and got out when he knew he should.
It's a great day seeing a @DrinkinBrosPodcast OG on Jocko! Hell yeah, Rocco! 🍻

WOWSERS!!! CONGRATULATIONS GUY!!

The como me llamo bit killed me 😂
That's awesome because Vinny was my Drill Sergeant
Echo 's got a prog rock band now. Look for his upcoming single, "Paradox of Zeno", on the album, "Non-naval Admirals."
Was in Malone. Just a couple miles from Danemora the day that happened. On my way through town before sun up. All sorts of military style vehicles and personnel everywhere. And I had no idea what was going on until later. 😂
School
Dig the conversation man! Been a while since I tuned in. Started a new gig and haven't had time to get on here. Keep on keeping on!
Vincent real ass dude love this one all ready bad ass shit

Should try and get Ed Calderon on
Wasn't he working both sides down in Meh-He-Co ?
On a deportation list?
1:06:14 was comedic genius. Chin department.
Great interview as always.

I see my comment already being downgraded by the algorithm. Hopefully it gets some replies and discussion.

Keep it away from me until he makes his final decision, and either signs or doesnt sign that contract😢🎉
As a second generation Mexican, I relate so much to that feeling of not belonging anywhere. I am too American for my mexican friends and family, and i am too mexican for my white friends. Lol.
They must want America to be fruitful is the best line.

Legal immigration like everyone else. This isn’t Nam Smokey, We have rules.
what would Jocko say right now?
Parents are from Puerto Rico and Mexico and he didn't speak Spanish....lol
Happens man. My parents didn’t teach me either. The little I do know is self taught.
Bro that shit’s more common than you’d think. A lot of us came from parents who thought learning this country’s language was more important than speaking Spanish…and they were right.

Don’t ever disrespect army. Army is earth.

How are Europeans considered 'exotic'? We're the founding population of this country.
suicidal tendencies are final. Jocko says GOOD!

Could you guys do a podcast on the siege of Jadotville and its leadership lessons? Michael Tighe would be a great guest
