Listener Reviews

This has become my favorite podcast. Love the guests and their life stories, life lessons, and that Jocko takes the time to delve deep into all that.

I love your stuff but John Basilone is from Raritan, NJ.

Wow. What a great listen. It helped me along a two hour workout at the club that left me stronger and smarter. I feel ready. Have you read “ Imjin River 1951 - Last Stand of the Glorious Glosters” about Brits in Korea. Great book for a little older age kids who are rendered more serious about war, strategy and leadership after having appetites wetted by Warrior Kid.

I really like the long format Jacko uses to explain different points of view and peoples life experiences. It’s the highlight of my day when I see a three hour class podcast ready to be downloaded!

Teaches you so much things about life

Every time I listen to this podcast I feel like more and more of a loser. Thank you Jocko and Echo Charles.

Really enjoy the interviews with old salt dogs. The more salt dogs the better. Active duty marine and I listen to this show all the time. So much knowledge to be shared from the people you interview and from yourself. I would say I prefer the in person reviews and hope you can get more vets on here with books or not. Maybe not even all special operators. Just old salt dogs in general. Thank you!

This man promotes good leadership, honesty, integrity and above all, reading. Anyone who puts one star as a review clearly has low testosterone and hates their father. Stay on the path!

Started listening to this podcast 2 years ago. Changed every aspect of my life!

Episode 354: This episode is great! I purchased the audio book NEVER SPLIT THE DIFFERENCE on Wednesday before I had completed the podcast. I finished the podcast on Thursday and only have 45 minutes left in the book before I start it again. I will also be purchasing the paperback to have a hard copy. Thank You Jocko!

Jocko has great insights on life and displays the self control instilled by his upbringing in all facets of life that he shared on the podcast.#353 was my least fav episode. The guest had a serious case of “I” disease. No wonder he’s looking at a career in politics!

Awesome shows, Like a protein shake for your mind

A required podcast for all people, but especially men with lost souls.

Thank you for your service. First off. I am just a patriot. Not able to join third are beautiful and a great nation. It was due to medical reasons. I do wish it was different, but that is the way the cookie crumbles for me. Been listening to you for quite some time now. This is my first review. All I feel like I can say is thank you and please continue. Also just ordered me a case of the goat energy mango to be exact thank you Echo for hyping it up more and more. Looking forward to continuing to hear the stories of our men and women of service. Us as civilians do own our service men and women everything.

This pod is GOOD!!

I’m 27 years old and I have struggled with heroine and meth addiction since I was a teenager. I have some diagnosed mental illness and these two things have made my life very difficult. I’ve been clean for almost 3 years now. I heard Jocko for the first time a few years ago and my first thought was I could never be that disciplined. However over the last few years I have been growing a lot thanks to you and your understanding of self discipline and simple and profound practical wisdom through experience! I’m married now and my wife and I have a beautiful baby boy that’s 1 and half. I’m still a work in progress and I fall short a lot, but I get up and get back on the path! Thank you for your service and for sharing yourself and your hard earned wisdom, it’s definitely helped me become more of the man I want to be and I’m just getting started!

Such an important topic and these guys are doing Gods work. More exposure is needed, they need to get this information in front of Joe Rogan’s audience and anyone else that will listen. Great episode.

Can Echo Charles have his own podcast or at least an episode? I was thinking how funny it would be in the opening to hear “This is the Echo Podcast with Jocko Willink and me, Echo Charles. Good evening Jocko.”

God bless you for putting these veterans and their stories out there. You’ve out done yourself and provided a platform for these guys to share their experiences.

8.6/10

Just as the title says.. I listen to some awesome pod casts, but jocko does it like nobody else. The level of respect you have for soo many of the people and their stories, and because of this, I love the interactions. Stories that need to told, and the perfect set of people to do it!

Jocko is the Goat hands down. Echo you seem cool too. This podcast is the best. Thank you for making it.

I started downloading this podcast just ahead of Covid, and never got to it until this month. Episodes are too long, I told myself. Excuses are gone now. I’m years behind but I’m starting from the beginning and consuming it all. Consumed in total or in short bits, the uncommon common sense (one of Jocko’s superpowers) and the call to action (not just listen) is what I’ve needed for a long time. Bravo, gents, and thank you for your service to protect freedom.

I like the podcast when under an hour. When I see that some are 2+ hours i wonder who has that kind of time. I do like the applications to everyday life. A great to podcast overall.
