That was the shortest hour n a half EVER. Super charismatic, friendly, empathetic, badass hero. I wish it lasted 4 more hours.

I'm sure you do a good job, but.. that's what she said.

[@Ryanboy2020]

Phenomenal interview Ryan!! One of the best!! Scott, "Intake" thank you, for your service and sacrifice to our country and thank you, for doing this interview. I will absolutely buy your book. As a side note, let me also say thanks. As one of those soldiers on the ground in both Iraq and Afghanistan, our butts were saved many, many, many times by combat aviators like yourself. The amount of TICS where just by you guys doing a show of force interrupted the contact just long enough for us to regain the strategic advantage are too numerous for me to count. I remember always looking up to see if I could get a tail or unit number so I could eventually say thank you but never was able to do so. I will say now, thank you, thank you, for being there when it counted and for giving me the opportunity to be here now to say thanks to you and all the other aviators who risked their lives to keep us safe on the ground. As an additional side note....I am not ashamed to admit that your description of the first air show you did after 9/11, coming out of the S turn and seeing a sea of red white and blue and thousands of people with American flags made me sob. I wish we as a counter could regain that feeling without having to go through another day like 9/11. Peace brotha! ✌🇺🇸...Mako06, 1st INF DIV, 2/16th INF BAT, Iraq 04,06 / 101st Airborne, 575th HQ BAT, Afghanistan 08,09.

I love how we always do things half assed entering war! And we’re still the baddest dudes on the block!!!!! Awesome show! God bless America! 💪🇺🇸 32:48

[@destro5311]

Wow! All killer No filler! These Navy Aviators really bring the nostalgia for me. I was born at Naval Hospital Guam and raised on damn near every base in SoPac during the 80’s and 90’s Saw a lot of cool shit growing up but the men in Green flight suits were mythical. Thanks for another great episode Ryan!

[@nastya-4driver981]

From a Vietnam-era A-4/CH-53 Driver and a Rifle Platoon Leader/Rifle Company Commander (I kinda understand both sides of your 9-Line story), I would recommend "One More Time" for your book. It fits getting back in the jet every time also!

[@bbbb98765]

Pulled out at 27 ft?! That had to raise the heart beat a little...

[@tannedfeet]

Is that even possible? Respect, but that is off the hook. 27' think about that.

[@bobbyagee3796]

I served with Mr. Kartvedt VFA -192 World Famous Golden Dragon 1995 - 1999) SSHBBSOB. This man is the most awesome dude one could ever meet.

[@JHillNC]

Ryan, you do a LOT of great episodes and this one is probably in the top 3 of all your Combat Stories for me. I wish we could check in monthly with Intake. The way this episode flowed between both of you was so smooth and satisfying to watch and listen. Thank you for a great episode, Intake and Ryan!

[@Hukahey]

Thank you Ryan for this amazing interview with Scott. It got me and tears cannot explain how important Scott’s opening up to his life’s experience is to me and my fellow volunteers in Fire Rescue and Paramedic services here in Australia. I will share this podcast to many of my colleagues and hopefully one day will have the honour of meeting Scott. 😊Like me however all we have experienced pales into insignificance as our children follow our paths. Safe travels to you all ❤

[@bobbyagee3796]

With the nine the first five lines are the most important. 1)location 2)radio frequency 3) number of friendlies 4) Epuipment Aid requested 5) number and position of enemy forces

[@FA18_Driver]

I know in your humility you’ll just say you’re an average pilot but to me you’re a living example of American 🇺🇸 excellence. We should all strive to be like you. Thank you sir.

Logistics. Nothing happens without proper logistics. Unsung heros, good guy. 100% Legit!

[@Moody0013]

Ryan and Intake thank you for such a fantastic interview, the best combat story yet (for me)

[@jerryguanciale1423]

Ryan...I'm sucked in! great interview here as well as the last 6 I've listen to. Have a patient...99 years old, turning 100 soon! was a WW2 fighter pilot in the Pacific Theater. He had all of his training flight orders, as well as all of his mission orders from his entire time in the Army Air Corps. Pictures, Original flight plans, mission plans, Blood Chits, and photographs. All categorized in about 3 loose leaf binders. I wrote the Air Force Museum at WPAFB i Dayton, OH...I made copies of everything for him and his family and we sent all the originals to Dayton for their archives. He is totally with it...remembers every detail of his tours all the way back to his training in Iowa. You want to interview him if his son thinks he can do it?

[@KY-YE]

This was such a good comment, meaning…. As I read I did not know where u we’re going with it… till the end. What u did was very thoughtful, very nice & pretty cool too. I cannot believe this is NOT the TOP COMMENT!! I wish I could hear this story or interview… again, I can’t believe others are not interested or at very least not giving a 👍 to catch Ryan’s attention… smh. Is there anywhere I can see or hear ur patients WW2 story? Either way, very nice of u, probably mean the world to him too. 👋

[@KenKellySWFL]

Great interview! Still have my Blue Angel flyer somewhere that “Intake” signed! Met Kieron O’Connor a couple of weeks before the accident… we had a very brief talk about the rival high schools we went to in MD. Thank you and your families for your service and sacrifice! 🙏

[@richardbowles7690]

What a great story of changing direction to pursue a passion. Passion makes for best "job" performance and least sense of the work being a "job". Thanks so much for these stories, Ryan. Thanks for all both you and Intake have done for our USA -- and continue to do.

[@scuddrunner1]

Ryan that was an awesome interview. Scott is right being a dependent at 13 when your dad is in war for a year was the longest year of my life. Intake that was as funny as it was scary, what a life. Thank you!!

[@michaelsturtevant7707]

Thank You for this one. Intake, you have had an amazing career. Had I taken a smarter path. We might have flown together. Your experience has brought new light on a quick comment my father made to me about cleaning up training accidents as a P-39 instructor in Thomasville, GA, in 1944. He went on to be CO of a F-51 Ohio ANG Squadron out of Right-Patterson from 1946-1951 Then TWA from 1951-1982. I know he saw many grizzly scenes. God Bless you!

[@tommynikon2283]

EXCELLENT presentation, fantastic Host- in letting the guests shine- and asking smart/relevant questions. Thumbs up. FWIW: my dad was a USAF fighter pilot- when I asked him why he didn't join the Navy, he said: "I like an airfield that doesn't move." He also said that there were plenty of people smarter than him in basic flight school....but some weren't aggressive enough, couldn't think fast enough, couldn't handle unusual flight attitudes (inverted), and by virtue of all of those factors: he got jets. Still around at 93- and still sharp.

[@kpitone]

Love the aviation guys! Keep em coming!

[@dsheola]

This was awesome. What a resume. Love the way you guide the interviews Ryan. Big fan of this podcast. I think the book title should be “27 feet off the deck” IMO. It’s not bragging if you can do it…

[@Topgunphoto]

Love his wingmans callsign, Simple Jack from Tropic Thunder... lol

[@bartgallant6897]

Absolutely incredible that there was enough time in a young man’s life to acquire all the skills necessary to fulfill his dreams, perform at the highest level, represent our country over the battlefield and act as the face of Navy aviation to spread the message. And THAT was just the first two chapters. Where do these men and women come from? People like me, having never served are so lucky to have been born in this country. That lyric from America the Beautiful is so appropriate, “God shed His grace on thee.”

[@n229dh6]

He had a wingman call signed "Newman," like Seinfeld? "Hellooo, NEWman." For all of us who thought we were great operators, snipers, doorkickers, drivers, surgeons, quarterbacks, triathletes, prosecuting attorneys, or stone-cold scratch golfers...here comes Intake to properly humble us all to the level of sewer rats. 🤣😁🤣😁 @RyanFugit @CombatStory , every time you bring on a Top Gun-quality interviewee, no matter the branch or AFSC, MOS, Rate, you raise the bar for your next interview? The only way you'll top this is by bringing on the ghost of Gen. Eisenhower!
