These interviews with the SOG guys from ‘Nam and their south Vietnamese Huey pilot counterparts are so intense. Every interview brings it… anything that any of his guests are willing to share is gonna be pretty much insane. If you haven’t listened, check it out for sure.

Serious discussions on topics of significance (for the most part). Jocko’s voice is compelling and Echo Charles editing and style is stunning. I particularly like the black/white/noir look which makes it unique to watch. The conversations which elicit the background of the guest or the book, and the steps, failures as well as successes and strategies reveal the connections we all have who have been in similar situations. He asks provocative questions and follows with his own experiences. I wait for these to “drop” every week. Finding useful TTPs and advice in almost every episode. Jocko does his homework before a guest is interviewed or a book is read. Time well spent. Highly recommend this podcast.

Best podcast by far!! Always keeping me on the path

Greatest podcast and love the guests

I have listened to many podcasts while doing my daily walks. They are very informative and compelling. I only wish our language would complement the veracity of our many heroes. I have also increased my library of books to help me understand the veterans and current military persons. My draft number during Vietnam was 280. I was lazy and useless. I would have had a lot of trouble in the military. Nevertheless, many men and women have benefits from military service and I see a great swing to the usefulness of a well trained force. Keep up the good work JOCKO!

Great interviews! Get some

Great advice for life and also interesting history lessons.

Jocko podcast is good to go.

Great pod, Jocko for President and EC VP!

Is it possible to a Richard Marcinko podcast?

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.

Love the podcast. Was making notes on particular podcasts to listen to and finally started at the first one as that’s where I should’ve started to begin with. Keep up the great work. Thanks for your service.

Listen to the lessons learned Legend.

Wish we heard a little more from Echo. (Now there is more than just that one guy who listens to the support section - to hear more of Echo.)

Jocko’s podcast filled with excellent teachings and life lessons hard learned from the front lines have literally helped me change my life. Forever grateful. Thank you for your service and sacrifice and that of your brothers. Never quit, never forget, stay the path.

Recently a guy has shown interest in my sister, so during my talk with him getting to know the caliber of man he was I asked the question I ask many people, “Do you listen to Jocko?” He was taken aback by this question and plainly answered “No”. Wrong Answer. Immediately my mind tells me all sorts of terrible things this man must be doing in his life like: not taking ownership, having a centralized command, and believing freedom can be achieved through things other than discipline. I feel my blood start to boil as this man is interested in my sister yet he is not on The Path but before I gave my temper a vote, I calmly stated “You need to start listening”. I gave him a few choice episodes that would be beneficial to his growth and would get him to start his journey on The Path. Two days and two early wake ups for me pass as I think about this guy and his plain answer “No” to such an important question when I get a message from him stating “Jocko is lowkey amazing”. Slightly more impressed at his listening to an episode but still appalled at his lack of respect for Jocko’s decisive dialogue, I swiftly corrected his grave error. “Highkey” I said ensuring he never mistakes Jocko’s key level of amazingness again. He is slowly learning the way of The Path but is far from understanding the life changing wisdom in leadership, relationships, and overall in life, that can be found in this podcast.

Every episode is chock full of great information. Jocko has the ability to get some incredible guests that are entertaining even when talking about dark, tough subjects. Keep it up Jocko and EC!

Very inspiring and motivating. Thank you!

Humility is nothing new when describing the guests that Jocko has on his podcast. In fact, it’s an expected trait of those he interviews. However, it is a complete understatement when describing John Farr and Carl Nelson, of the famed Sea Wolf squadron. These two gentleman, with many others that our proud country has produced, display the contagious aura of patriotism while still remaining the most humble of all when describing the events that made up their early years in combat. I salute you, gentleman. This country could use many more of you. Thank you.

Jocko! Thank you! Thank you for giving your valuable time sharing your experiences and giving life advice in able to be the best we can be. I can honestly say your podcasts have given me such a different out look on life and how to deal better with certain situations. Realising and accepting my ego and insecurities has been the first steps on taking extreme ownership. My life has taken a complete turn! Love what you and Echo are doing. Keep up the awsome work guys. ⚡️⚡️🌈🌈 Getting after it, all the way in Australia!

Since listening to the JOCKO podcast for quite some time now it has been a hot dose of much needed perspective. From the guest to the overall subject matter of the podcast it hits the very core strings of the SOUL!!. As a veteran myself listening to JOCKO podcast gives me the much needed motivation to engage the issues I face and use that motivation to the best of my abilities to keep me going. Leadership is something that is earned not given and JOCKO/ the JOCKO podcast definitely surpass that mark. A highly enlightening podcast to sit and listen too when we all just need that kick to as JOCKO puts it GET AFTER IT !!!!. Semper fi. Stephen L.

Very timely guest and subject. Well done!

Jocko rocks. Great info. Good guests. The earlier podcasts that were explorations of great military books are worth a listen.
