Your section on losing a loved one was very well-stated. Thank you, sir.

[@GeorgeLucas_TaintedLegacy]

Idk how I haven't found this podcast sooner, but it's easily become one of my favorites!

[@chrisw.4295]

Love your description of the loss of a loved one Jocko. I’m going through the wave of emotions now after the passing of my wife three months ago. It helped hearing you say that these range of emotions are a natural healing phase. Love your podcasts, very inspirational!

[@officialyoutubecommentator4357]

Jocko has super powers; He gives out answers before the questions are asked.

[@loganmiller1314]

I have not see enyone sayit yet so... Echos arms are looking JACKED!

[@kevind6400]

That last question and answer... damn. I have yet to hear a better answer to losing someone.

[@Boewick]

This hit me hard. 3 weeks ago I had just lost my mother and I have been thinking how I can move forward. Thank Jocko and Echo for answering this.

[@austinmesnard6286]

My school counselor lost her child, Penny, two years ago. I emailed her this podcast.

[@_gongster2835]

This is so great. It's the first video I listened to in 2019.

[@johnmichler7846]

Fantastic episode! It was great to hear Mattis, family and marriage all in one podcast. This is one of the most personally impactful yet.

[@mceisen9930]

Great section about how to deal with the loss of a child

[@dredbane4056]

Brilliant talk. I literally got to practice the leadership you have taught me to improve my job. Now I'm not following dumb rules the right way and my team is improving every day. Thank you!

[@sdjohnston67]

Great advice here. Thank you.

[@slugger1983]

I don't know what it was about this Q&A, but it seemed more uptempo and light-hearted. I liked it.

[@MrRubberchicken21]

Wow Echo Charles really doesn't look the way he sounds!

[@R.Tafolla]

He sounds like Lee Syatt.

[@alcestedeambris4027]

@@R.Tafolla Lee Syatt with a positive T-cell count

[@interludic]

really great content, I was hoping to hear more about the family stuff. some more examples. also got me thinking how your kids turned out under that kind of discipline, considering your always busy, sounds pretty rough?

[@TheWZAd]

😐 "Good evening Echo" 🙂 "Good evening"

[@remi9018]

Good to talk about this kind of thing ...as didn't really no how to deal with this kind of thing

[@TheAllTimeFavourite]

[@HomeshighlandPark]

My mom just said get your shit together and move on when my bro died. Thats it. It worked.

[@calisurfduuuddee8183]

Yep, I hung that light with an EZ anchor. I am confident it will be there for 30 + years.

[@0num4]

Echo "Jackkked" Charles Echo teasing his twin brother: You.aint.jacked.

[@garybellish3908]

Grief, everyone deals with it in their own way, the key is to deal with it.. embrace it. It's a natural process and you will learn to deal with it.. it's not forgetting them or devaluing their spot in your soul to move forward.. just my 2 cents

[@eduardoleon7946]

Echo looking JAAAAAAACKED!

[@danicaparlance9451]

Is Goggins the guest for a New Year's episode by chance?

[@phettywappharmaceuticalsll8842]

Update from December 2021..nope still not ..I think they would clash cause Jocko is team and goggins individual

[@TheEnvelopeOZ]

Tuned in for the knife, left satisfied.

[@elmank0]

we need a GIF of 1:54:44 ' a little bit of ...'

[@benjohnston8183]

Do they sell men’s shirts where you bought that?

[@donalc3281]

Hmm I wonder if at 57 mins Echo Charles is referencing Streets of Rage when you press the button to call the police backup with the bazooka 🤔

[@wf9787]

Echo lookin jaaaaaaacked!!!

[@ericsahs]

Very spot on about grief and loss.

[@ayara8157]

Long extended support in order to decompress = "SUPPORTCH!!!"

[@mikalthorn507]

I do not understand the numbers on the video links. They are not in order from oldest to newest lol

[@papabear328]

Mattis for POTUS and Jocko for SECDEF 2020. (I'm not even American but I want to see that happen :D )

[@sasquatch6829]

Good response to the fryer question. It is a parallel to the “cleaning the toilet” story.... difference between a toilet and a fryer is that the toilet does not have heat. [heat] Which is simulated (I assume) is a drill Sargent.... Will result similar results, small recent skid oh the toilet... or even cast iron pan......(?) becomes a baked on habit.... poor comment. Too much run on.

[@c431inf]

Being opfor was always more fun

[@zachpoore815]

Sir, it's probably already been asked, but would you have a PJ or CCT on the podcast?

[@daireklewis2482]

Echo so jacked he has tattoos of muscles on his muscles

[@volcaniadread]

[@apachedisco]

Breaking rules are great when the outcome is positive. I view rules as a guideline more than the law. But realize if you fuck up, it is yer ass.

[@the_martian1838]

fair game in leadership is the secret

[@sdbling]

@23:30 ROFL. Okay and WTF @47:30 is Echos arm tatted(inked up) like outlines of muscle fibers or is that really just real muscle definition. cause I aint Never seen that before. Not just chillin at rest. I’m thinking back to those Og. Flex mags with those guys on the cover are sinewed up n road mapped out. but those guys got their Hella pump on before posing for the shots. And they STILL don’t look like echo’s arm. Maybe I’m just sheltered idk I would think a negative body fat % is needed to get that kind of resting def. Either that or Echo knocks out a quick set a few times per cast when the camera pans Over to JocKo for a bit. When you see Jocko just shake his head and look down every so often that’s when echoes in the back doing push-ups. That’s got o be it. Either way Echo, your arms are a Tripp.

[@menwithven8114]

He's big but he doesn't do squats and he has skinny knees

[@ryrez4478]

Dude its a tattoo lmao

[@sdbling]

Is it? I dunno man, that shit looks real to me. Just cant wrap my head around it. You’v seeded doubt but I’m still leaning in the real camp. Is It a tat? Wait, Maybe it’s Henna. What if everyday..... sheeeese. Gamer - are you one of or the perpetrator keeping his skinny knees alive? Getaway sticks. I use that now. Shits funny

[@american9245]

Gangsta shit.

[@chickfinnegan8969]

Jocko is a Chad life advice giver.

[@AaronBuley]

Why does it look like I can see Echo’s muscle striations

[@CausticNinja]

[@huntertreadaway5760]

Those ARE striations bc he’s lean af

[@luckyluckerm]

Echo WTF? its just tattoes or most impressive biceps i've ever seen xD

[@autoaim16]

Hey Jocko, can I be your friend?

[@richardprice9730]

As I started to wacth this went back for another piece of toast and then oh that toothe one of my few remianing front rabbity teeth I have been dilegently tying to save with umteen brushing feels kinda oh ...f it is loose its wobbling slightly, having endured 10 years of this and apart from the intial treament which started this dreadfull landslide , adapted ...Oh F....My Mum wouldn't even let me eat sweets. Suddenly..it started great Jocko, your rambling .....again Sir . , too much F...kit sonny ,then ......another little slip again back into the pit , the price of being a non conformist eh , but still would I want to be one of those guys crowding around el presidente' in his ranting about the billion dollar "wall" ,with all their tacticle kit on never mind the mexcican children and thier mothers, play the game , whose game are we supposed to be playing , yes ....sir,.... NO....NO....... God bless R, I don't ever remember.....

[@kevinnorth4020]

huh

[@richardprice9730]

The military mind is about denial full stop you are trained to become insensitive and eventually sytematically de sensitized , that can and does lead to all or sorts of in human and monstrous behaviour that is then often covered over by "in times of war .." There is no us and them the them is purely internal , got it now Kevin !

[@eveliinatistelgren172]

This podcast is 2:12:15 long, which is over "a massive amount of time" More short videos, explosions were fine.

[@cdrtej]

I know, it was short, but they can't all be full length 3.5 hour productions. 😉
