[@Fearvana]

Thank you for having me on the show brother 🙏🏽 It was a true honor and privilege...

[@Chris-fk1kr]

Great podcast. I have a feeling Josh Waitzkin was a huge influence on you. I'm picking up the audio book right now.

[@dawnkeener9836]

Thank you!

[@Fearvana]

[@realRainz]

Fearvana - genius name of the book. Great interview Akshay, thank you for your service, Sir!

[@neeratron]

Holy cow . Finally an Indian American War veteran. I'm from India and a huge fan of Ritlan, Jocko, Jp Dinell , Goggins and the kind..​I'm overjoyd to know finally there's an Indian born amongst your ranks of badassery

[@neeratron]

@apache0060 Lol dude thats native american Indian..I meant Indian as in from the nation India..namaste stuff :p

[@neeratron]

@apache0060 Thats alright!

[@gerrymiller4523]

Amazing show. I can always count on you to bring on the most perfectly imperfect humans and provide me with hope that these people exist out there.

[@cuintn]

Thank you Mike @mritland for sharing with us Akshay Nanavati @fearvana on today’s @mikedroppodcast! This episode resonated with me, and I’m sure it will with everyone else, on a high level. I was not expecting that kind of connection at all; what an incredible way to kickoff this Friday morning.

[@Chris-fk1kr]

This is definitely my biggest weakness. I think anybody with this weakness needs to admit that it's going to be a life long struggle. It's so hard to admit your fearful especially as a man. Iv'e been figuring out lately that the underlying cause of my depression is fear. Emotions are an energy force, you can't just get rid of them but you can move them or channel them. I hope Mike opens up about his battles overcoming fear. Thanks for your great podcasts.

[@fredkesler95]

I must admit that my respect for Mike has grown exponentially after this episode with Nanavati. You are as intellectually talented as anyone you have interviewed. Cudos from a retired teacher!

[@barnabyjonesdangerdog758]

God damn I love this podcast. I often feel like I'm alone with the way I think, then I listen to Mike Ritland and realize that I'm not. I often throw out the subject of animals and their level of consciousness (I feel they have a greater level of consciousness than we think,) and people act like I'm fucking crazy. Mike Ritland, Andy Stumpf, Jocko, Shawn Ryan and any of the other "operators" that I'm missing, have the best, most rounded podcasts around. I wonder if they realize the impact they have on people's (especially men's) lives..

[@nikkiarana]

"The guilt is an expression of the love." That alone was worth the time. Memento Mori, Thanks guys, much love.

[@jojoscoot1]

An hour into this podcast after listening to the Andy Stumpf episode and definitely digging it! Subscribed!

[@jmethos]

You're one of my favorite podcast hosts Mike! Keep it up!

[@joecam1167]

Classic Mike Question: what's the weirdest.... the question we're all thinking

[@Caiaiman]

[@internet_internet]

Thank you for giving us these videos, Mike!

[@billb81]

Another mind challenging , entertaining , guest .. 2 and 1/2 hours of interesting info

[@denisemskewes6787]

Another stellar video. It was informative, educational and yet entertaining, I like the way you do the interview. Very relaxed, you make your guests relax. Like 2 people shooting the breeze. Thanks for an good show.

[@waternwoods6160]

Mike when are you going to have David Goggins on? It would be a very interesting interview.

[@onlycasual1]

It really wouldn't, the guy is about as insightful as phonebook. All he does is spout platitudes and generic motivational quotes.

[@markdonna6574]

Outstanding podcast mike.keep up the great interviews .

[@suewebster2768]

Once again you really went over the top-I say that about most of your podcasts!

[@markzegarac8574]

Another excellent podcast with a lot of very good information to digest and put to use. Thank you for these and know how much of what you are doing here is appreciated and helpful in ways that at times are hard to express. Yet you are a calming voice of wisdom in an otherwise screwed up world...:) Take care from Waterloo, Ia.

[@sonof69star]

Great interview. Mike brother, please please bring on David Goggins on board for an interview.

[@randysmith5993]

I needed to hear this. I thank you Akshay ! An thank you Mike for introducing me to Akshay Nanavati.

[@Rich65501]

Outstanding interview. Here's the book to buy: Fearvana: The Revolutionary Science of How to Turn Fear into Health, Wealth and Happiness

[@joshparnow9044]

Hell yes! Best way to start your day off

[@mmrtactical7764]

Another epic podcast Mr. Ritland, Mr. Nanavati was awesome to listen to! And on another note, you're interviewing skills are second to none - you can interview a fucking rock and make it interesting. Your podcast is by far the best one out there, keep up the great work.

[@mgz3032]

Stoked!!!

[@artk6998]

Fantastic interview!

[@tebow954]

Wouldn't mind some content flairs on your video, you can slide some pointers on the end of the title you've done it on a few, maybe in the thumbnail, you can shorten episode to Ep. too Example: Mike Drop Podcast: Ep.57 - Akshay Nanavati - U.S. Marine, Enlightenment, Enlistment. Helps us know what we're getting into y'know. Appreciate your work brotha. Godspeed.

[@grandpapa2134]

Always with the beat off question.... its why we love ya Mike 👍👍

[@realRainz]

"I did the online version" - said Mike about his NAVY SEAL training... )

[@SolaraSLE99]

That was hilarious lol!!

[@RayRayReddington]

Great interview! S/F to Akshay! Next time you talk to Clint E, ask him what happened to his phototrap app. I might have an interesting person for you to interview. How can I put you in touch with him?

[@Legend_Hunter_Original]

Hey mike amazing podcast. Was wondering if you have Tu lam on your radar, the content type would be pretty similar to this one...

[@blackforest1132]

Wow 🙏🙏

[@melissafritts8648]

Love this brother!!

[@johndunbar2393]

I think this dude used to talk about Micro Machines.......damn he talks fast. Lol Had to back up several times, just to catch what he was saying. Damn good interview though! It's funny sometimes, how many thoughts we have, that someone you've never met has had as well. Thanks Mike!

[@Bobdrum2]

This dude has thought this shit out! Can’t wait to read the book

[@jonathan2416]

True Indian Giver 😂😂😂 great podcast and this guy is a true bad ass !!!

[@joshparnow9044]

[@joshparnow9044]

S Sheldon thank you

[@dalesfailssagaofasuslord783]

Loved this one, this guy is so interesting.

[@stevendeloach7148]

Fell asleep at 90 minutes. Finishing listening later.

[@jonathan2416]

Steven DeLoach weird how you typed a comment asleep 😴

[@Leviathan7.62]

Mike, is there any possibility of having Tu Lam on your show? I think it would make for quite the bad ass should

[@bmcantrell619]

Great. My day off of work and I get to don't get to sleep in thanks to you

[@113charlie7]

Fuck yea just what I need to kick off a Friday GETTTTT SOMEE

[@FrankieHustla]

I used to date a Hindu Indian girl who explained that cows are revered in India because they're associated to the mother of all Gods or something, but also because it someone reincarnated.

[@Fi1del]

dmt talk on mike drop holy fuckin shit , time to get mike tyson on good sir , great shit as always and forever !

[@thomasstephens5572]

Very similar thoughts here to those identified by Jordan Peterson

[@internet_internet]

DMT/ayahuasca is akin to the “forbidden fruit” in the Bible. Once you see, you cannot unsee. Once you know, you cannot forget. But there are consequences. Tread lightly.

[@farragutspikes1]

Mike, tell this guy to relax, man. Holy smokes is he serious. "Easy, easy, easy - cause I'm not Eazy-E!" Bad Lieutenant 2.

[@whereami2273]

Brother. You need to do an episode with Ronin!!

[@DanielThomasArgueta]

Interesting.

[@johncook7364]

Standing by

[@revans1166]

Mikes all about the snacks 🍕🧠

[@upsidedownflapjack]

What does Mike Ritland do for 'Good Friday'? crush interview in the AM..........@ss in the PM

[@BostonsF1nest]

Sooo what you’re saying is, suffering is good? .... 👍🏽

[@Bigfishboi7]

I had to read dwecks book for psychology class

[@jamesstanley4764]

Mike, I really think a dog can learn from trauma as well as love.

[@rondeleon251]

I thought guys like us cease to exist after certain point in our training? How did you guys get Lucky...

[@Shadow_Warri0r]

Cool shit

[@DanCan2]

It's totally worth the time to try something you know you suck at, just to experience failure. Try beta testing failure by doing something you know you cannot achieve. Who knows, you may actually achieve it! If not, then at least you learned to fail. Either way, it is definitely worth the time!

[@Bigfishboi7]

No tree can grow to heaven without roots that reach to hell

[@Jackson-e4k]

one podcast I didn't have to 2x the speed

[@rondeleon251]

Hey brother I feel so ALONE...

[@jonathan2416]

Ron Deleon you’re not alone ... feeling lonely is a real struggle but you are not alone . Keep pushing on.

[@rondeleon251]

I'm so sad I cry all the time I just want to be back with my brothers doing the damn thing... Thank you for your time it took to respond 😊 I will take what you said and run with it🖤⚡🥉🏴

[@titofrost958]

This intro song is horrible ngl . The other one was really good.

[@tonybreward8678]

I couldn’t listen as this guy talks too fast for me, It’s like it’s speeded up .
