Medically retired after multiple combat deployments, a Bronze Star with V, Purple Heart, and enough kinetic stories to fill a book. From leading teams in Now Zad to pulling his own guys out of multiple IED strikes, this one gets raw fast. We talk leadership failures in combat, hunting, ibogaine, and why the system chews up warriors. 𝐑𝐲𝐚𝐧 𝐊𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐮𝐬 | 𝐌𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐃𝐫𝐨𝐩 𝟐𝟗𝟑 𝐡𝐭𝐭𝐩𝐬://𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐮.𝐛𝐞/𝐰𝟓𝐩𝐬_𝟑𝐄-𝐤𝐚𝐄

𝐒𝐀𝐒 𝐯𝐬. 𝐏 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐲: 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐓𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 | 𝐄𝐩. 𝟐𝟗𝟐 Phil Singleton spent years operating in the shadows — tier one SAS, Operation Nimrod, the Iranian Embassy siege — and then quietly disappeared into a second career training thousands of law enforcement officers across the U.S. as Training Director for Heckler & Koch. He doesn't carry a cell phone, doesn't chase recognition, and until now has been one of the most quietly consequential British operators most Americans have never heard of. This week Phil pulls back the curtain on what it really took to earn that winged dagger, what it was like to storm a foreign embassy in the middle of London on live television, and why — at 72 — he's perfectly content stacking bananas in a grocery store produce aisle with zero regrets.

A small-town Texas kid who ran away from home at 14, fought his way into and out of BUD/S more times than most guys even attempt it, then went on to build one of the most operationally relevant combatives programs in special operations history — Randy's story is one of the most raw, honest, and flat-out relentless journeys I've had the privilege of putting on this show. This one's worth every minute. 𝐑𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐲 𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐳𝐞𝐥𝐥 Chief Randy Rozzell | 𝐌𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐃𝐫𝐨𝐩 𝟐𝟗𝟎 𝐡𝐭𝐭𝐩𝐬://𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐮.𝐛𝐞/𝐮𝐃𝐟𝐦𝐎𝐊𝐎𝐳𝐝𝐖𝐈

Last week I had the honor of being recognized at the Iowa vs Penn State wrestling match, back home where it all started. I don’t take moments like that lightly. Iowa shaped who I am — my work ethic, my values, and my standards. To stand in my home state, surrounded by family, and feel that level of support was humbling in a way that’s hard to put into words. Much respect to the Hawkeyes for going to war and putting up a hell of a fight against a tough opponent. The team showed true effort, grit, and accountability. I’ll never forget where I come from, and it made me damn proud to be back there. Thank you, Iowa. The Iowa Hawkeyes Iowa Hawkeye Wrestling Penn State WRESTLING Tom Brands

Why Shawn Ryan Needed a SEAL Sniper in Romania No gun. No backup. Just a 24-hour lead time, a blade from a Romanian souvenir shop and a gut feeling something was about to pop off. In this clip, we break down what happened when former SEAL Team 6 Sniper, Chris Fettes, was asked to provide personal security for Shawn Ryan during a politically charged Shawn Ryan Show interview in Romania—just as the country teetered on the edge of collapse. From unarmed planning, situational awareness, and dressing for escape—not fashion—to navigating Deep State paranoia and real protest fallout, this is a masterclass in improvised protection and why the mission doesn’t end when the camera rolls.
