If you feel like you are living a sad and pathetic life, you are probably correct. Jocko brings on guest after guest to confirm your analysis, and inspires you to get out of your rut hole life and get it together. Brutally honest, like that one uncle who airs the dirty laundry at thanksgiving dinner. However, the goal of the breakdown is not to destroy, but to find a way to build you back better than before. This podcast seems like it should scare away anyone who ever admired a manbun as a thing to be desired, but is surprisingly approachable to the wider, less machismo audience. The podcast isn’t talking a big game for those who are already strong and boasting about it, but identifying where we each are weak in order to address it. 15-20 minutes at the end to shill the goods, but hey, jocko has bills to pay y’all, so no factor. I like this man, his message, and the army of good people he seems to be surrounding and building around him to accomplish the mission. Wish I had found this podcast sooner. 5 stars, and that’s not stolen valor.
