Jocko Podcast 471: Better K-9s and Better Humans. With Mike Ritland

[@dertythegrower]

Having a German Shepherd is a part time job in itself.

[@dertythegrower]

Cannot wait to see what this one's about... eheh... cheers, happy 2025, reality check season is upon us

[@ride4lifecbr]

Best dog breed of all time. Will always have at least 1 of them. ❤

[@vermithor51ac]

Amen to that. But it's worth every goddamn drop of sweat.

[@iansimmons8826]

Facts

[@JR-ju3kj]

That's what I've heard and what I always figured. I never had a dog but if I ever get one, it would have to be a German Shepherd!

[@DMU386]

i see Mike Ritland and dogs in the same title and i click. it’s that simple

[@RiddickDDR]

K-9 is a lifestyle, as are other things that I cannot discuss by law. I thank God for Syndey Washington (Kingdom K-9 training academy-- 2013-2014 internship) and Joe of Bethel Kennels in Gadsden AL. that took me in and trained me via an internship and my dog Smokey Joe, and Kgosi. Shout out to AMk9 and Sgt. Tim Miller of weaver police (k-9's. All of em.) For recerts in '17, shout out to Floyd county Deputy Chris Snyder ('18) for seeing how well my dog Riddick and I worked together and for shaking my hand and vouching me. I am glad Jimmy listened and got a full suit for the K-9 training unit here.

[@RiddickDDR]

Mr. Willink, what I hear you saying is this: listening and being open to recieving (taking in what resonates and contemplating upon ) the respectable personal experience based opinions, and observations of those that have perhaps more experience and knowledge in a certain area of life/work or expertise, and attempting to do better and do different, leads to a more satisfying and meaningful life.

[@MrGvan27]

A few great guys right there.

[@RiddickDDR]

Genuinely. Thank you for your service.

[@terresa-n-todd]

Sending prayers for you & all who loved Mansa🙏🏻😢💔 God bless you!

[@jimmyhenson2167]

Mike is one of my favorite people to hear talk lol. Love his personality.

[@christors]

Mike good luck on this project, Jocko thanks for doing what you do-

[@derrikolmstead-karate-fitness]

Yes we’re definitely a divided nation. It’s crazy Jocko. I’m 37 years old living on my own. I’m from Simi Valley, California and I lived there my whole life until I moved to Beatrice, Nebraska 3 years ago. I thought when I moved to Nebraska that everyone knew each other. Well that’s not the case. Beatrice is a small town of only 13,000 people and nobody knows each other. Nobody gets together on the weekends and does anything fun. No Sunday barbecues. There’s no community here because everyone is trying to change the world on social media. I’m glad you talked about this because people need to understand that social media is simply a useful tool that can help brand yourself and also grow a business. If you want your voice to be heard then you have to make it heard in your community. Not on social media. Although, even if you do make your voice heard in your community people still might not change because you can’t you force people to change. Either they will or they won’t. It’s up to everyone on their on own to change and lead by example. If everyone leads by example then America will change and become better.

[@Sambo_Shorts]

Mikes first appearance on Jocko was one of my all time favs

[@ChristinH.]

I often think of Jocko and his presence. So grateful.

[@RiddickDDR]

And. The most important statement I am going to make today. Is.... Thank you for your service.

[@Sarge80]

Happy new year everyone from The Netherlands. I hope everyone has an awesome 2025.

[@BlueWaterSTAX]

Well done guys. Happy New Year

[@kurtgeorge5022]

Great stuff!

[@Nicholasfulton-u1z]

Thank you for your time. This is so true 💯👍

[@richarddodson560]

Listen boys, I’m in the process of retiring from the military after 25 years. I’ve been in the NG since October 2006 and have been a federal employee since that time. The increase in telework has not affected my job production one bit-I do litigation and general law and regulations-no need to be in the office at all. It takes me an hour to get in and not infrequently 2 hours to get home. I have to wear a suit to work, so I save a lot of time and money by not going in, and have a lot more time with my dog. I work more hours as I wake up at 4 a.m. I log on at home and work until 7 p.m., which I would not do if I were in the office. Let’s be fair in our assessments of what is going on.

[@kevinramsey3490]

Sir, not trying to troll you or make you mad, but I didn't understand that comment except it seems like you work a crazy amount of time. Sorry about not understanding.

[@BCHOMEHUNTER]

All good, however, if all that is true the you are in the anomaly category, so your statistic is meaningless.

[@racerx9207]

So what. Anyone that actually builds or does anything in this country gets up and goes to work everyday.

[@unifyhumanity360]

Team Jocko ,Team Dog, Team Warrior Dog, Team Freaking Awesome is more like it 🫡

[@RiddickDDR]

Truth. Lying as a survival skill. Should talk about that in a podcast. There is lying to get out of trouble. Then there is lying to survive.

[@raoufrachedi8903]

Would be so cool to see Mike inviting Jocko to his porcast as well

[@teresahemingway4577]

Love learning more about what point men with dogs experience. Means a lot to me.

[@24jake28]

mike's the man!

[@robconant333]

Been waiting on this 1 🇺🇸. Now for 222. Happy new year 🇺🇸

[@arthurcitron9774]

Spot on!👊🏻🇺🇸

[@glengill8904]

2 of my favorite pods crossing streams again.Great conversation, hopefully the common sense contained returns to society.Condolences on your pup Jocko,,consider a Dutchie.

[@Peter_masih5]

they overlook ebooks like Magnetic Aura by Takeshi Mizuki because its insights on attraction challenge conventional thinking

[@jeremydittmer9175]

I really like Mike.

[@ExecutiveZombie]

PUPPY! 🐶🤩

[@kankanadutta7013]

Please bring some badass British SAS soldiers to Poadcast

[@jaybrown4246]

The fact that this trained killer, that can eliminate an emeny because it's the mission , be composed under pressure and to do it in a fashion to be almost heartless, because it's what he signed up for and it's the mission, to retire and take the training to good for K9s is commendable !! Thanks Mike for all the good you do for dogs !!

[@TimboBoze]

Did Jocko’s cheek muscles get more jacked or is it just me?

[@SamBo33-]

Get Lindsay Bruce on!

[@JR-ju3kj]

That would be great! Jocko should have on Christian Craighead, Nicholas Seedsman, Big Phil Campion, Chris Ryan and Shaun ''Bish'' Bishop, too! I want to see some SAS guys on the podcast. He's had on Dean Stott from the SBS, so I would love to see more SAS on the podcast. And since I'm originally from Canada, I always wanted to see Jocko get on some of the Joint Task Force 2 guys( but JTF2 is more like The Polish Grom in that there aren't a lot of them that do interviews)! Some people don't even know that Canada has an army( and I'm not even joking but I wish I were) , much less that it has it's own elite Special Forces unit.

[@infared54321]

25:10 Jocko is an inch away from realising twitter is not a realistic representation of what is happening in the world.

[@pittsky]

Mike Ritland? Hell yeah!!!!

[@smoothroad589]

Mike is the Goat

[@Steveoh1983]

Fucking eh Mike drop!! Should be a good one!!

[@dertythegrower]

2:05 Reality check season 2025, I said it all year 😅

[@Lucas51192]

👏👏👏👏

[@dogbuggy32]

Got a Tear in my non shooting eye. Lol

[@mohanbansal282]

reading the ebook Magnetic Aura by Takeshi Mizuki could completely shift how you see and apply the principles of attraction

[@benhenderson9018]

To Odin

[@JJ-ii7vz]

GOOD

[@bimscutney1242]

Well my problem is the people who can’t accept the fact they’re wrong even when there’s overwhelming evidence to prove it. It’s just out of pride. That’s a huge problem. Political beliefs are a spectrum it’s not either or. You can be conservative on one issue and liberal on another. Contrary to what the media and politicians want you to believe.

[@UniversalCivilianStrategies]

who brainwashed Jocko and convinced him to blare metallica at the gym to purge someone ?

[@jimmyhenson2167]

No comments ??

[@parthathokdar9602]

the truth about attraction in the ebook Magnetic Aura by Takeshi Mizuki is so powerful that most people don’t know what to do with it

[@lachimolala4781]

no one talks about the ebook Magnetic Aura by Takeshi Mizuki because its take on attraction is too raw and real for most to handle

[@ajjubhai8929]

if more people read the ebook Magnetic Aura by Takeshi Mizuki, the way we understand attraction would transform overnight

[@m_0863]

Woof argoof.
