Best quote from this podcast, and possibly from any podcast ever: "I'm not even sure what I'm doing after this podcast. Probably going across the street to Buffalo Wild Wings and get all gooned up" -Tony Eafrati

[@BrianS-ny9yd]

Kinda sad though. Jocko has 10 hustles generating wealth, wife and kids, fame .... and Tony went back to manual labor, might have alcohol addiction, and Buffalo Wild Wings to look forward to. 🙁

I don't really see how running an energy drink and jean company would really be satisfying though. It could be profitable but not very fulfilling. I do love the podcast though@@BrianS-ny9yd

Podcasts are the future of communication without censorship. These guys are murdering main stream media and I love it.

[@AguyR1401]

I don't think you understand the rabbit hole of censorship in its entirety. There are things still not being discussed, and no podcast platform, not even Jocko's, will change that, so long as it remains available on mainstream websites. And, if a podcast were to discuss various taboo subjects and were to be made available elsewhere, then the podcast and its hosts and guests and audience would all become ostracized from other, more mainstream, platforms, and no longer be welcome under their domain, which, as it turns out, belong to the everyday use of most everyone else.

Tony is a legend. Every podcast I've watched that has ever mentioned him has been with the utmost respect and admiration. Tony is a special one. One of God's own prototypes.

Tony reminds me of so many guys in my model ship club. A bunch of retired navy guys who were BAMFs in the navy in the 70's and 80's. Telling crazy stories of swimming under submarines to dislodge torpedo's that didn't make it out of the torpedo tube or getting drunk any chance they got. Super straight forward and down to earth. Nothing like having a beer with navy guys and shooting the breeze.
