Listener Reviews

Recently discovered this podcast and it is now one of my favourites. The format is excellent and provides numerous moments that really motivate the listener to keep an open mind and engage the world with a new vigour. Jocko's style is humble and honest and easy to consider and dont forget Echo who often contributes some great interpretations and experiences. Thank you and keep it up!

Great insights into mental and physical aspects of training to be at the top of your game in whatever you do.

Massively inspirational and deeply insightful.

This is a brilliant Podcast, Jocko is refreshingly honest, clear and concise. So much of his experience and principles gained in the military can be taken away and applied to you own life. GET ON IT!

Hey Jocko and Echo please keep up with the good work, and keep motivating so many of us to get after it.

Started listening to the podcast a few weeks ago because I enjoyed Jocko' stories on the JRE and stayed for the benefit to my personal success and outlook on life. I can't Thank you enough Jocko and Echo.

My favourite podcast. I look forward every week to hear Jocko speak. His words and attitude are powerful and have affected me very deeply. For the last two weeks I've gotten up everyday at 4.30a.m and worked out hard. I've seen a change in myself and others have noticed too. I often hear Jockos voice in my head, telling me, coaching me "GIVE IT EVERYTHING YOU GOT!!!"...my new mantra. Thanks so much to Jocko and Echo for the podcast.

Insightful, and incredibly applicable lessons even for civilians - this podcast is smart, inspiring, and inspirational.

Awesome stories and life experience being shared- two thumbs up!

This is one of my favourites. It's put a number of fine books on my to-do list by giving a thorough enough breakdown to give you a good overview whilst suitably whetting your appetite enough to make you want to dive in and read them for yourself. Also, some great wisdom to be found within, both during the book reviews and in the answers to listener questions. Very inspirational. Listening to Jocko has genuinely changed my life for the better and upped my game in all areas considerably. Great man. Great podcast. Thank you. Mr. Smith.

Fascinating insight into the leadership styles of US military (through books reviewed on the show as well as Jocko's experiences) and how these boil down to the core principles that can be applied to any and all situations. Absolutely inspiring.

A unique insight into how to take responsibility for yourself and your actions from a proven leader of men

Incredible podcast that you can't listen to with constant distraction. Focus. Absorb.

Jocko is a mad dog. He's inspired me to get after it and am now waking up at 04:30 everyday. Do yourself a favour and listen to him

Jocko has taught me lot of insight about war history, strategy, personal relationships. Most of all, it helps me have a stable ground to work from – reminding me that hardships are to be overcome and that freedom comes from discipline. His podcast is part of a select few (Tim Ferris and Sam Harris) of which I listen to everything. The conversation with Echo also gives it something personal and amiable where I don’t feel like I have to reach up to Navy SEAL level to grow as a person.

Jocko and Echo - great to listen too on a long drive! Good insights into leadership techniques in extreme situations- and entertaining and motivational .

A extraordinary podcast.

The insight you have is incredible and I am sure your podcast will hit the top. I am 43 and in this world it is hard to find content like yours that I find inspirational. Real world experience that I can translate and then implement in to my world. Great podcast with educational, motivational and practical valuable content.

Really enjoying this podcast with Jocko & Echo. I love the conversations and the advice provided. Jocko has his head screwed on and the advice really hits home. I love the advice about extreme ownership and how you can apply it to all parts of your life. I love learning more about life in the SEALS and how its impacted on him, his habits and how he lives his life. Keep up the great work!! - GET AT IT!!!

If your looking to be inspired you've come to the right place.

The lessons from this podcast have changed my approach to leading and life. Thanks.

I feel ridiculously lucky to be able to listen in on these podcasts. It's not often you get such solid great advice off someone who's been doing it for years. I first heard jocko on Tim ferris' podcast and became instantly inspired by his life and attitude, now I really get to study the man and what he has to say. I can't wait to start applying some of the stuff he recommends.

This podcast is awesome. Full of practical lessons developed from the crucible of war that you can apply to your own life. Highly recommended.

Simple, clear and powerful. Leaves you with no excuse.
