Listener Reviews

You hinted a while back that you were reading The Peloponnesian by Thucydides. Any chance you will be doing a podcast (most likely a series) in the near future? I really enjoy listening to you and Echo, Thanks

As an active Seabee 2005-2017, SW1 (SCW) Williams, Thomas, I was brought to tears to hear you show your love for Seabees. 2009 I was in JBB Balad assigned to CJSOTF. The time I spent with the 5 and 10 Group with a very special time. The respect shown by those guys and gals was definitely worth every minute we spent work for them. I appreciate you shining a light on what we do and our commitment to it. Seabee Can Do, WITH COMPASSION FOR OTHERS, WE BUILD WE FIGHT. The difficult we do right away, the impossible takes just a little longer.

Omg Jocko you are the GOAT I love you so much and you have helped me with many of my problems In life you have helped me become a successful person in life I read extreme ownership you have helped me as a 13 year old thank you

Your a class act jocko. Nobody can hide that kind of crazy for life. We know who u are week after week. Your a good man

We love Jocko’s work in my family. Leadership Strategy and Tactics was a good read. Nephew and nieces love the Warrior Kid books. Uncle Chuck is the man right now. Echo Charles is awesome, and it is great to see him giving Jocko opportunities to shine on almost every podcast. Keep up the good work EC!

Outstanding podcast! Jocko gave a play by play explanation to his Task Unit’s role in addition to the other important players in the Battle of Ramadi . This should put to rest all the negativity for those who endured one of the most contested times in Iraq . Let’s keep the memories of our Fallen Angels alive and to those who continue to bear the scars of war. Semper Fidelis Godfather Ramadi 2006

17 year old here, love the show Jocko and Echo. Thanks for everything, love you guys.

Great listen on a weekly basis

Great! Better than good!

Been listening to Jocko since he’s started. He and Echo do a fantastic job! Huge fan! Keeping me on the path.

I’ve listened to all the podcasts up to 365 and eagerly await catching up on the rest. The Jocko Podcast is a fantastic show that has had me laugh out loud, shed a tear (good tears!), and learn a ton. Some episodes have been so good that I’ve listened multiple times and have taken notes. Jocko’s dedication to distilling and teaching the principles of leadership is unmatched. I’m guessing, but my political views might differ from his, and I will still continue listening. This podcast has made me more patient and open-minded. It has challenged and pushed me to be a better leader and person. Thanks Jocko, for all the amazing work! It is truly appreciated. P.S. Confirmed 10,000% improvement in my deadlift from listening to this podcast.

I love this podcast for all the same reasons the haters give less than 5 stars. I just read a bunch of the negative comments and they are almost as entertaining as Echo's tangents!

Danke! 🥇🤝🧠💜

I listened to Echo’s question & Jocko’s response ~ the 56 minute mark at least 3-4 times. Because I’m the person that sometimes makes requests:assignments too difficult for the people on my team by providing the extra/unnecessary information. I love this show because I am constantly learning how to be a better person & leader. Thank you

🔥🔥🔥

Love the show. You really know how to run a discussion or keep it going. Your guests are buy and large great. Arnold on the other hand was consistent with what I expected. A bit to narcissistic for my taste. A lot of “I did this” and not “we did that.” I don’t think he has any ill intent. Just an overbearing love affair with himself.

I’ve got some hard core confirmation bias happening right now! 😂 Eat steaks and lift weights? I’m all in! 💪💪

Jocko and Echo have genuinely changed me as a person over the last 4 years and I will be forever grateful for the message they put out and the positive impact it’s created for my family.

Absolutely the best interview I have listened to of Arnold “promoting” his book. Jocko and Echo make it easy for the conversation to just flow and their admiration and respect for Arnold can be heard throughout the entire 2 hours (more or less) of this podcast. Loved it and highly recommend it.

If you listen and implement what jocko says you’ll want to get after it everyday. Also echo isn’t bad he’s pretty ripped. No factor great pod cast you’ll always learn something no factor

I love this podcast. It’s history, it’s lessons, it’s a review of after battles, and after wars. In which we learn the repetition of politics/politions actually not allowing the war to be won.

Have never given any podcast or TED talk type of conversation that much thought but this one is different. I look forward to listening to this in my spare time and have literally seen little aspects of things in my life change, just by incorporating minor details and personal attributes discussed by Jocko and Echo. By far, THE best life, leadership, and relationship podcast that is out there.

Most meaningful podcast material I’ve seen

Lots of good advise and entertaining.
