004 Chief Beck (Kristin Beck)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 кві 2018
- After a 20 year career in the SEAL teams conducting 13 deployments and spanning the globe, Chief Beck came out as the first openly transgender SEAL. We have an incredibly candid talk about the many political and societally charged issues surrounding our nation in regards to this topic. In true Mike Drop fashion I ask a number of tough questions that many in our society have, an debate a wide swath of viewpoints that seems to divide many of our citizens. There are a number of perspectives that Chief Beck has that will surprise you, and rest assured you won't hear a talk like this on mainstream media outlets.
This is another great interview brother. You are the man!
Fast forward 1 year and you interview him! I just watched it and was blown away!
You should try podcasting!
Wondering why it doesn't have more views?
Regardless of gender identity, this person served our country to the fullest extent and deserves credit and respect for putting themselves into danger for Americans
It’s almost as if you have no idea this guy like all US soldiers are just pawns for israel and zionists. Trans women are men/males.
@@Carl_ATHF You r gay
@@Carl_ATHF what’re you smoking buddy
Gender dysphoria is a severe mental illness I'd rather have troops with PTSD because of shit they've been through than to purposely not get counseling and instead get a sex change and still want to be in the SEAL Teams I'm sorry, he would have got thrown out on his face in the 1980s and that's the way it should be now don't ask don't tell flat out that's it
"served our country" Doing what? Killing brown people for rich zionists? lol Meanwhile american boarders are wide open.
Thank You Kristin for your service, I wish you the very best life has to offer.
First comment I found addressing Katelynn. Respect.
*Kristin
Lmao. That was not meant as a slight towards Kristin, I'm just a lil slow. I'm going to choke myself now.
Florida Man it’s a man/male.
🇺🇸🇺🇸 thanks for your service Kristin 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Crazy come back to this episode years later knowing Kristen is back to Chris. Really happy for this guy and the peace he now has.
When I first started this, I'll admit, I had a closed mind in a sense. But in the opening minutes when they say to please keep an open mind and an open heart and hear what this person has to say, I thought to myself "you know what, I'll do that. Instead of moving on, let's give this a listen with a completely open mind". When the 4 hours was up, all I can say is, I'm extremely glad I listened. there were so many great lessons and great conversations. if we can all just stop for a minute and listen to what each other has to say, maybe we can make the world a better place... what an amazing show and amazing podcast, thank you!
Same and agree 100%
Mike is killing it with these podcasts. Can't wait for the next episode!
Mike Ritland Deserves a journalism award for this one . Thanks Mike. For helping to understand
ric vas Awesome comment! You are correct!
Agreed. Respectfully dug into the subject.
Great podcast Mike! Chief Beck has certainly had an amazing journey. Very well done with important issues being addressed and I'm glad you were able to get your words in edgewise! Enjoyed the show!
I wasn't sure how this was gona be for sure at first, but I do know that this is how things should be. If people would focus on common ground instead of the "differences" everything would be alot better. Another great podcast Mr. Ritland! One thing for sure, you have a voice for a podcast, just like Jocko. Keep 'em coming!
Simple Life unfortunately, political theatre wins if everyone only sees differences. The liberal and conservative elites could not possibly accomplish their evil profits without the internal American civil war...it’s all about the distractions from the real evil truth.
@@roadbully384 I agree. I think we all need to see where the division is really coming from. Its coming from all over. The easiest and most effective way to solve this problem is for us all to change the media we consume. Replace cable news(All of them) with something good like these types of podcasts. There are a lot of independent podcasters that produce incredible and useful content just like Mike is doing here. And they are from all over the spectrum and if you pay attention for 10 minutes you will see that America is united in so many ways and we want the same things.
Matthew garsteck That is our truth. I’ve already made the switch and promote the ideal to everyone.
Was great to hear an extended interview with Kristin Beck. Thanks for the good conversation Mike.
Mike, excellent in depth podcast. I didn't realize it was 4 hours long as I was engaged the entire time. Thank you and thank Kristin.
Mike you are a truly on par with any professional interviewer! i hope you continue to keep this process going because it good to go.
Thanks for this interview. Very informative. Thank you both for your service to this great nation. Semper Fidelis
Thanks so much Mike for having Chief Beck on your pod! My husband and I appreciate Kristin and his achievements and his life. He will always be a SEAL to us, and anything else he chooses! Kristin, I honor you and all you are and do, you can be my brother and my sister and my friend! We love you, and love you too, Mike. Keep up your great work, both of you!
One of the best I’ve heard in a long time. Much respect to both.
Mike you are doing an amazing job with the interviews. I appreciate how candid you are with questioning and glad to hear someone who is not scared to drop the F-Bomb.
I’ve really been sequestering myself from the main stream media the last few days to stay away from politics and this Goddamned Covid-19 hysteria. Thanks for 4 great hours. Thank you both for your service and I freakin LOVE the Viking toast and what it can do to help us communicate. I’m definitely going to try that.
That was a very eye opening conversation to say the least. Kudos Mike on another great podcast!
This takes 2 brave people to put out a podcast such as this. Kristin, thank you for your service really doesn't say enough. This 19 year war has not been in our lives like it should have been. It should have been in our face daily. The day-to-day of our soldiers was never really expounded upon. To see them on patrol and the road is so hot their boot treads are decorating the road. Eventually,there is no tread.
The image of the flag draped coffins lining the belly of the plane will stay with me forever. It should be in the mind's eye of every American.
If these badass SEALs can be real with each other why can't the average American?
I realize this was aired at least 2 years ago. So much has happened since. But,yet it is the same.
I listen to a lot of podcasts, and Mike Ritland’s are, hands down , the best I’ve ever listened to. If you ever get tired of the dog business Mike (I doubt it), you can always go into the broadcast business. Outstanding!
They're pretty strong!
His podcasts are definitely one of my top favorites.
From the UK, these Podcasts from Mike are awesome! Never dodges thorny issues. Love them!
Mike is one of the best at conduction an interview. He is a natural. Also, loved the Viking toast at the end.
Getting better Mike~ each go. I like the camera angle. Appreciate ya. Thanks to you both.
Thank you for your support!
1:16:53 "Knock on wood (knocks on table)....this isn't even wood. Knock on your junk, I'll knock on my head" - Mike Ritland.
Glad to that I learned a few things from this. Thanks Mike & Chief
Mr. Ritland, this is my FIRST EVER comment on the internet(no BS) and I felt compelled to reach out to you! As a patriot, I want to say "THANK YOU" for your service to protecting our GREAT country, which of course includes the former warriors, current active duty and the future ones who move forward into the unknown to keep us all safe. Your "Band of SEAL Brothers" truly are the definition of what a hero is. UNFORTUNATELY, it is something that is lost on a lot of people that take it for granted, like Memorial Day, and NOT think of sacrifices that YOU and others have made to make that a reality! In addition to ALL of that, I appreciate everything that you are doing to take care of MWD's and as a new subscriber, I look forward to supporting you in your endeavor. I've had dogs my entire life and can say without a doubt my GSD Rommel is both my psychiatrist, exercise buddy and chick magnet....wait forget the last one. If I'm lucky, I will adopt a retired MWD in the future as a way to honor these magnificent animals. I'm only 4 podcasts in & look forward to each and every one. I sir, respect what you do and am humbled by how down to earth you are. On that note, I will now go choke myself!
Great show, Thanks to you and Chief Beck.
What an amazing individual sharing a perspective that I have never known and yet hard to understand with love in my own heart.
Awesome podcast! This is what our world needs most. The ability to set amongst our differences, having open and honest communications in a respectful manner. Cheers to America, Freedom, Individuality, Abnormal and Uncommon!
Challenging to listen to and must have been challenging to participate in. Good interview Mike!
Why was it challenging...can't you handle uniqueness because of your selfishness?
Why is this challenging to listen to? Im confused so van you break down what you meant by that? Not in a rude smartass way but honestly just wondering what that meant.
Amazing! Pure Gold. Great convo and shows perspectives on both sides. Mike you are so fkn professional, kind, funny and patient. You’re going to have a lot of success brotha! Keep grinding!!!
Good pod cast. My eyes have been opened. Thanks Mike.
Thank both of you for doing this
I have a problem with people under the age of 18 taking hormones or hormone blockers. If you are an adult I respect your right to pursue your happiness.
Thank you both for your service, from canada, I think you Are both great sincere people, Awesome show
I enjoyed this and opened my mind to views that I was not thinking about. GREAT TALK!
Your patience was incredible and admirable in this one
Good show Mike! Thanks for keeping it real and steering clear of Politically correct BS
Thank you for supporting!
My hat is off to you . I truly respected your view and outlook. I totally agree with your opinion Mr Ritland. Just started listening to your podcast. You do a amazing job interviewing.
Thank u for your service. Much respect
One of the best interviews!!!! Great job!!
Such a good episode, I had to revisit!
Wow, was not expecting that! I'm fiscally conservative and socially liberal - basically live your life the way you want as long as it does not negatively impact others and keep your hands off my money! Chief Beck did way more than most to fight for our freedoms and certainly has the right to those freedoms, as we all do. Very nice work Mike!
Eye opening mind gaping open! You both are awesome. Thank you.
Great episode!!! Good episodes are episodes with good content with extraordinary people. Great episodes have the same qualities as a good episodes but when you bring in the element of uncomfortable conversations that pushed the envelope it becomes great!!! I love how both you challenged each other!
Always love listening to Chief Beck and Mike Ritand. Two compelling and insightful speakers. Mike has become an absolutely first class interviewer.
Great interview. Great human beings. Exceptional patience for Mike being talked over repeatedly - handled it very well.
Thank you for ur service Chief Beck, u have my utmost respect.
Mike you are truly a class act. So calm and professional. I think we could all take a page out of your book. Be patient and wait for you time to attack with complete honesty and steadfast response with thee upmost respect. Hooyah!!
I drank 2 pots of coffee, made a cherry pie, worked my pottery wheel and was glued to my speaker the entire time. Mike, your questions were super thoughtful and respectful. I am so glad I found this UA-cam channel.
@Appalachian Mountains awww, I have the best neighbors and I bake or cook for them when I can. My grandma taught me very well.❤
Wow, if i drank 2 pots id be in jail or dead or running around screaming "i dont know what the fuck to do' hahaaa bless you for making cherry pie for your neighbors
I love all your podcast Mike! Saved this for last but i couldnt finish this one. She interrupted the entire time. Hats off to you for being able to keep the convo going. That would frustrate the shit outta me.

@@jbfthree1 10 bucks you wouldnt be saying these things if you were in the same room as them, 20 bucks that if you did you’re leaving limping or with help from firdt responders
@@DavidLopez-vg7gr i would say the same shit. And fuck who don't like it. Including you. Fuck that sick bastard.
@@DavidLopez-vg7gr don't be a science denier, chromosomes don't lie.
Just because someone can beat you up doesn't change their gender.
@@oif3gunner who cares. Chief served this country in ways you'd never even be able to touch, if anyone deserves some basic respect for protecting your liberties countless times over 2 decades, it'd be Kris. You don't have to be a sensitive c*nt by being needlessly disrespectful for selfish reasons, simply because someone isn't living the way YOU want. It just makes you look like a child throwing a tantrum because you want attention. "Sir" is a title that has nothing to do with gender, is used for either man or woman higher up the chain in the military and yet we have no issues using it that way because it's a word that adults use and shows basic respect. So if you want to actually make an impression? Be decent, regardless of your personal "politics"; because trying your hardest to make someone else feel like sh"it because you feel icky and uncomfortable about their gender is not what a man does. It's what a grown child in a man's body does. So maybe you actually know more about identity politics than you even realize after all.
Great interviewing skills Mike, you are truly top notch in this game.
No one is more deserving of being in that parade of heroes than Kris Beck.
Great interview Mike, very objective from both sides. Thank you both for your service, you are true warriors! Good luck with all of your four legged guests, it is a great service you provide.
Would love to buy a dog from you one day.
I’ve just heard about this guy, I was watching a Shaun Ryan video where he was talking about all the things he’s done. Then I looked his name up and realized there was a lot more going on. From my limited knowledge it’s clear he’s done more for the Seals, military than several generations of change.
Kristen is a great patriot,the SRS is cool 🇺🇸😎
As always, professionally done. Thanks Mike.
No kidding!...
48:00 .....the ultimate flaw of current cultural trends is to continually seek to control the uncontrollable, the environment, in effort to cater to the weakness of the individual. It's much easier, and infinitely more productive to prepare a child for the unpredictable challenges of life, than to try and run in front of them eliminating the challenges. Justin "Master Chim" Garcia says it best, and i paraphrase, when he says that when we remove an obstacle from our kid's path, we also must consign ourselves to removing the development of the very strength and power they could have developed to deal with it......
Mike this one was awesome I was nervous 100 times this one was going off the rails
"Do you know what i mean by that?" Mike attempts to respond, then Chief starts to talk some more, and more, and more. Excellent patience Mike, great interview overall!! Do you know what I mean by that?? Lol
Kudos Mike, for a show that is not afraid to call it as it is, and not get tangled up in political correctness and social engineering. I understand the power of words, but I must agree with you that it is more important to not let words dictate your thoughts and actions. The seat of power resides inside the individual!

Awesome show I really enjoyed it, and I like the fact you hit her with the brother deal because you and her apart from a brotherhood
I’d love to hear an in-person interview with Don Shipley. Great podcast Mike!
That would be a good one!
Mike Ritland
, need to get Mchooyah on too! He loves doing media. 😆
Snatchmoe don is a fuckin real one. Love that guy.

Patricia A. Badea you mean a serving SEAL in peace time who don’t know WHAT the fuck he did or didn’t do but he was THERE. Ready to roll.
it's not can we do it, it's "should we do it", good interview Mike. It's about what is good for for the unit/team, unit cohesion.
Just watched and it was a good interview. I wish you delved into his sops career more. I would have liked to here his service story's that I'm sure he has many to tell. Much respect to both of you. 😊 🙏 TY
I'm sure you didn't mean it in a malicious way but one of the best ways to show "much respect" would be to address Kristen as "she" or just "Chief" if you aren't able to address her in the way she'd like. 20 years of service that damn near the entire planet couldn't even attempt deserves at least that little kindness. She's earned it.
Great job ritland! Your patience is legendary
Second to none.
This was handled with grace and respect, very well done interview. Kristen has a tendency ramble/get random and interrupt (don't mean that in a bad way, but I def noticed it) and Mr. Riteland handled that well. So much respect for both of you, and this has quickly become one of the best podcasts out along with Power Athlete and Tactical Fitness Report. Never looked forward to a podcast so damn much, so thank you Sir.
Ryan Droney Agreed! I think Chief did interrupt quite a bit, however I think it was probably a rare forum for Chief to say anything, especially to Mike, a former Teams member.
That’s such an interesting perspective, which I respect. I felt Mike was the one talking too much, and rambling, so the Chief had to jump in to get a word in. I much prefer when the host allows the guest to talk more than them, and this particular podcast was the opposite.
@@scotrule6128 Amen. That's why you bring people on. Get them to talk. There are so many layers here, that most people don't get.
ppl here, don't know Mrs K level..........no idea....
Just give your opinion and stop trying to tiptoe around what you really think.
Kristin, I’m SO SORRY those thugs attacked you in Tampa. I FUCKING PROMISE YOU, if I had seen that happen, I would have come to your assistance.
And to anyone for that matter, I know YOU will not allow that to happen to someone else, and either will I.
I LOVE you Kristin, and OUTSTANDING interview Mr. Ritland.
To call this interview amazing would be selling it short! Thank you, Mike, and thank you, Kristen!
Check out the Shawn Ryan Show interview with Kristen,it is very good
Great dialogue on opposite sides of the spectrum. To witness two adults having a 4hr conversation with different opinions with no “reality bullshit” is more then impressive, it’s reality. And we need more of this honest, real world, no censorship, education.
Four years later I read your comment but there is a reality that we all must accept for this place to have a cohesion.. Chris Beck realized he was wrong and transgenderism is nonsensical mythology
I had seen Kristen's documentary years ago and enjoyed listening to this episode. Hearing about the growth phases (puberty and the psycho-social manifestations) that transgender people go though was interesting to me. I have studied cults and have heard people who had left cults that they grew up in or who spent decades in, say something somewhat similar; that they go through all sorts of phases that they missed out on as a teenager or young adulthood. So it made sense to me that a transgender person could also experience this. I had never thought of this before until I heard Kristen speak about it. Thanks, Mike.
This was a tango I am not graceful enough to succeed at. Mike you’re a fucking legend and an amazing interviewer.
Thank you Chris for your service!
Kristen, you are a true American hero. You've sacrificed so much of your life and personal freedoms at the expense of your family to bring the fight to the enemy. You deserve to live how ever the hell you want with no body questioning your decisions or feelings. It's time for you to enjoy those freedoms you so gallantly protected. If I ever see you out I'll be sure to buy you a beer 😎
@@buscrocop4120
There is no god and when you die you will cease to be. Your BS is born from fear and nothing else. Don't force the warm blanket that you call religion on the rest of us.
At 3:04 I totally agree with Mike. I see it too. Very insightful.
another good pod from mike. nuanced, common sense conversation
I'm watching this in 2022. Mike has become one of the top notch interviewers on UA-cam along with rogan and shawn ryan. Pbd also among the best!
I just realized this is episode 004. Seem kinda nervous. Lack of eye contact. And sticking to your safe space (note pad) .. but love what it has turned into and u are great!
Interesting discussion. One thing that stuck out to me was her strong desire to go to bat for trans kids vs her empathy for her own kids. I hope one day they can work things out and have a good relationship. Great podcast, much respect to you both.
Awesome! Glad she included her kids in her final toast!
Bravo to Mike on this one interesting guest. He maintained his cool very well I was getting frustrated at Kristin interrupting him be he’s a no shit pro well done
Thanks for the name drop, Bro!
love the viking toast conclusion, great podcast, way to shed light on kristens community and do it with tremendous amounts of respect
My respect to Chief Beck for the courage required to express this personal journey in such a public manner & to Mike for hosting the topic with an open mind and welcoming demeanor. Semper Fi Brothers. -USMC Recon 90-98
Awesome conversation!
I was some what skeptical of this pod cast. I'm glad that I did watch it. It resulted in a little more understanding on my part. I want to thank Senior Chief Beck for the bravery in protecting this great country. I don't agree with everything conveyed by Senior Chief Beck, but that is why I am glad I live in the country that I do. We can disagree and go about our business, in theory for some and real time for others.
Well said.
You are a very very cool lady. You are so real.Keep up your good work.we need you!
Thank you Chief for your service!!!
Dude mike is a fuckin smart man, the way he present his case is so measured yet direct. Fucking love this podcast he’s gonna blow up big time and I’m glad I was watching when he started. Support ya Mike.
Excellent podcast !
Kristen, you're classy regardless (whether you're in jeans or in a skirt). You're a real hero speaking a candid truth and expressing integrity in your belief. I like this Podcast even more because Mike truly respects his Seal brother Kristen. Another great Podcast Mike!!! Love it!!! If I had to pay just to listen to this I would do so because it's worth my time. Fake news has become very unappealing. It's BS!
It's Chris, because he's still got his tool and bag...😂
I had a hard time getting past the words are weapons bit but I'm glad I did. You give people power over you if you let their words upset you that much.
Wow! I must say. I searched this episode out to see what your opinion or feelings on this would be. You come across as a door kicking badass most times but I must admit , I was really glad to see you treat this sailor with the utmost respect. You sir are a real man and are not threatened by her sexuality. I hope some day this whole country sees this the same way. Great show!
Oh and I’m soon to join the team dog team. 👍🏼
Keep it up! Great stuff
Great interview. Great ability to try and understand but not back down on the questioning
Intelligent conversation. I like this. I think Kristen is beyond wise actually.
Respect to both for their service. But Jesus, Beck, stop interrupting.
Another excellent episode, Mike.
Love you mike your the best unbelievable podcasts kiddo.
Sorry kris thank you very very much for your service bratha.
Mike and Kristin, thanks for yall dialog. This is why I love Mike drop. Mike speaks and says things like most of us say. Thanks Mike for your time and show. Also Kristin thanks for your service.
Im all for the not hating, and just let the
Be them. 100% for that. But the same goes both ways, dont force their beliefs on straight folks. Lets just coexist and all is fine.
Genuine question - what do you consider to be "forcing their beliefs on straight people"
