Damon is out this week, but the show rolls on as Damo, Aaron, and CS1 Burns sit down for a wide-ranging conversation covering everything from Navy policy changes and leadership lessons to deployment experiences, career growth, and why Seafood Newburg somehow became part of the discussion. We discuss LTB reviews, Master Chief pay, recruiting concerns surrounding Genesis, the Murph, the new UFC event fitness requirements, PRT alternate cardio, bad day chits, the CNO's recent email on grooming standards, the absence of women selected for Admiral, the relief of an entire triad in Japan, the Warrior Toughness rollout, and changes to evaluations at terminal paygrades.

In this classic episode Greg Lawson is talking about his book 'Roswell: The After Action Report'. The Roswell Incident is possibly the most investigated and controversial UFO case in history. There are no shortages of beliefs and opinions to the actual events of this unusual happening. Dozens of corroborated witnesses and hundreds of professed witnesses have been interviewed, each with their varying degree of credibility. In Roswell: The After-Action Report, veteran detective Greg Lawson uses forensic statement analysis and his thousands of hours of training and experience to review the cultural influence, historical context, and eyewitness testimony of those closest involved. The results of his review prove once again, citizens should always be skeptical of those in charge. Bio ​Have you ever experienced something you could not explain?

Greg Lawson has traveled to over 40 countries visiting some of Earth's strangest sites and conducting his own investigation of their paranormal histories. Greg is a 30-year law enforcement officer, professional investigator, police academy instructor, college educator, and former expert witness for investigative procedures.  He  also researches and investigates human paranormal experience and locations known for spiritual or unusual activity. He has authored two books on the subject and specializes in providing alternative perspectives to explain human experience. Greg is also a 10-year military veteran with the US Army, Navy, and Air Force, (...yes you can do that...) and is currently a street patrol lieutenant in Central Texas. He uses the thousands of hours of training he has received through his profession and his experience as a detective along with his Masters Degree in Education to study paranormal human experience and physical anomalies.

In this thought-provoking episode, Ross delves into the world of geopolitics and climate change with a fascinating conversation about the book "Twenty Eighty Four" by Admiral James Stavridis. This gripping novel explores a dystopian future where climate change has ravaged the planet, and the consequences are dire. The conversation starts with a discussion about the war in Iran, where Ross and Admiral Stavridis share their differing views on the conflict. The Admiral's insights on the Strait of Hormuz and the potential consequences of a negotiated settlement are particularly insightful. As the conversation unfolds, Ross and Admiral Stavridis discuss the Admiral's new book, which explores themes of artificial intelligence, climate change, and the future of humanity. The book explores the consequences of climate change and the impact on the world. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Retired U.S. Navy SEAL Vice Admiral Robert Harward joins the Brian Kilmeade Show to shatter the viral social media conspiracy alleging he wore a prosthetic mask during a recent Fox News appearance. Harward breaks down the real-time drone strikes targeting Iran's launch stations and explains why the current economic blockade is pushing the regime to a catastrophic point of no return.  Plus, Marc Thiessen pulls no punches on the woke "religious left" candidate in Texas, why Donald Trump's Senate majority is fractured, and how Spencer Pratt's common-sense mayoral run could spark a massive political shift in Los Angeles.

In their follow-up novel, 2054, they envisioned a breakdown in American politics fueled by a radical advance in AI. Now they make their boldest, most astonishing, and arguably most necessary leap—imagining the consequences of a climate war. By the year 2084, the world is divided into the equatorial countries that bear the brunt of the climate crisis—led by Nigeria, Brazil, and Indonesia—and wealthier countries like China and the US, beset by their own problems after a series of civil wars. Tensions between the two sets of countries have reached a breaking point, until finally the so-called Reparationist nations of the equator decide that only military force can bring them justice. A fascinating and disturbingly plausible extrapolation from current realities, 2084, like other classics of the genre such as Kim Stanley Robinson's The Ministry for the Future and Neal Stephenson's Termination Shock, deploys a global cast of characters, all protecting their interests as the fate of human civilization hangs in the balance. Individuals often seem small in the face of the forces that drive global change, but in the end human agency proves surprisingly decisive. Big doors can swing on small hinges. We have it within ourselves to write a different destiny, if only we can imagine it. Elliot Ackerman is the author of several novels, most recently Red Dress In Black and White. His books have been nominated for the National Book Award, the Andrew Carnegie Medal in both fiction and non-fiction, and the Dayton Literary Peace Prize among others. His writing often appears in Esquire, The New Yorker, and The New York Times where he is a contributing opinion writer, and his stories have been included inThe Best American Short Stories and The Best American Travel Writing. He is both a former White House Fellow and Marine, and served five tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan, where he received the Silver Star, the Bronze Star for Valor, and the Purple Heart. He divides his time between New York City and Washington, D.C. Website: www. ElliotAckerman.com; Twitter: @elliotackerman  Admiral James Stavridis, USN (Ret.) spent more than thirty years in the U.S. Navy, rising to the rank of four-star Admiral. He was the Supreme Allied Commander at NATO and previously commanded U.S. Southern Command, overseeing military operations in Latin America. At sea, he commanded a Navy destroyer, a destroyer squadron, and an aircraft carrier battle group in combat. He holds a Ph.D. from The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University, where he recently served five years as dean.  He has published nine previous books and hundreds of articles and is a frequent national and international television commentator as well as a Bloomberg Opinion weekly columnist, and a monthly columnist for TIME Magazine.

It's our annual Memorial Day tradition, as we're once again re-airing an interview we did back in 2017 with retired Admiral William “Bill” McRaven. If Bill's name sounds familiar, it's because he presided over the 2011 Navy SEAL raid that resulted in the killing of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan. A few years later in 2014, the four-star admiral and 37-year Navy SEAL veteran delivered the ⁠⁠commencement speech⁠⁠ at his alma mater, the University of Texas at Austin. Little did McRaven know that his address, which spoke to how students could overcome challenges and change themselves, would become a viral hit with 20 million views online. McRaven was eventually encouraged to expand his commencement speech into a book, ⁠⁠Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life…And Maybe the World⁠⁠. Have a money question?

Guest Author Admiral James Stavridis discusses the necessity of gathering intelligence through the contrasting examples of George Dewey and Bill Halsey. At Manila Bay, Dewey successfully utilized human intelligence from State Department diplomats to construct a victory. Conversely, during the Battle of Leyte Gulf, Halsey suffered from incomplete communication and imperfect intelligence, leading him to abandon the landing force. Stavridis also introduces Admiral Michelle Howard, who exemplifies the ability to weigh consequences. Howard's successful rescue of Captain Phillips highlights how assessing risk effectively is a vital leadership skill, even when newly assigned to a command. (1/4)1863 DANISH IRONCLAD

Admiral James Stavridis examines resource evaluation using David Farragut's victory at Mobile Bay as a model of combined arms and technological adaptation. Farragut successfully managed the transition from wooden sailing ships to ironclad steam vessels. In contrast, Captain Lloyd Bucher of the USS Pueblo faced a tragic lack of resources when captured by North Koreans in 1968. Without support, Bucher made the controversial but rational decision to surrender to save his crew. Finally, Captain Brett Crozier of the USS Theodore Roosevelt is highlighted for prioritizing his people during the COVID-19 pandemic, illustrating that moral leadership sometimes carries harsh career consequences. (2/4)2872 BRITISH MONITOR

Admiral James Stavridis focuses on the leadership trait of emotional detachment. Stavridis criticizes Admiral Bill Halsey for allowing competitive rivalry to cloud his judgment at Leyte Gulf, contrasting him with leaders like Michelle Howard who maintain composure. The discussion also covers Stephen Decatur's heroism at Tripoli, where he demonstrated the flexibility to change plans—burning the USS Philadelphia when "cutting it out" became impossible. Stavridis further defends Lloyd Bucher's surrender of the Pueblo as a rational act in the absence of any means of resistance, arguing that leadership requires acting logically rather than choosing suicidal defiance. (3/4)1890 USN NAHUNT

Admiral James Stavridis highlights the heroism of Doris "Dory" Miller and Commander Ernest Evans. Despite the segregated Navy of 1941, Miller displayed immense courage at Pearl Harbor by manning an anti-aircraft gun and rescuing shipmates. His legacy is honored by the naming of a future aircraft carrier. Commander Ernest Evans is celebrated for his "last stand" during the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Leading the destroyer Johnston against a massive Japanese fleet, Evans engaged in a heroic bluff that forced the enemy to retreat. Though Evans was lost, his decisiveness protected the landing forces and earned him the Medal of Honor. (4/4)US CAIRO

SCHEDULE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW 5-11-26.1943 ADMIRAL YAMAMOTO'S FUNERAL.Bill Roggio identifies Iran as the preeminent state sponsor of terror, surpassing Pakistan. He argues Iran's foreign policy is inherently revolutionary, using terrorist proxies like Hezbollah and the Taliban to further its agenda while utilizing diplomatic negotiations to buy time and ensure regime survival. (1/16)Bill Roggio examines the stark standoff between the U.S. and Iran, noting that while U.S. strikes damaged Iran'sconventional military, the regime persists through asymmetrical warfare. He expresses skepticism that the current blockade alone can achieve regime change, citing the historical resilience of terrorist states. (2/16)Samuel Bener reports that Hamas flatly rejected a structured disarmament plan, signaling its intent to resume conflict. Despite attempting to rearm through low-tech Egyptian smuggling, Hamas remains below pre-war strength. Meanwhile, the Board of Peace attempts to manage humanitarian aid amid ongoing violations. (3/16)Samuel Bener discusses Hamas's claim of reconstituting its 30,000 personnel, mostly through recruiting untrained youth. He notes that some released terrorists from the October 7th attacks have returned to combat. Bener argues that air strikes alone cannot collapse the regime without internal popular support for change. (4/16)Malcolm Hoenlein reports on the heavy infrastructure damage to U.S. interests in the Gulf and the persistent threat of Iranian missiles. He observes that public opinion in Gaza is shifting against Hamas as citizens desire reconstruction. Meanwhile, Palestinian authorities continue promoting "jihad and martyrdom" through school textbooks. (5/16)Malcolm Hoenlein reveals that Israel operated a secret logistical base in Iraq to support its air campaign against Iran. He notes that Iran evades blockades by exporting 80% of its oil to China via Iraq and overland routes. The Iranian economy remains vulnerable due to aging infrastructure. (6/16)Gordon Chang and Piero Tozzi analyze the upcoming U.S.-China summit in Beijing, noting Trump's "built-in disadvantages" and Chinese arrogance. They discuss internal Taiwanese political divisions regarding China policy and highlight recent multilateral military exercises as a significant "planting of the flag" before negotiations. (7/16)Alan Tonelson interprets the U.S. diplomatic focus on Japan as a reward for its commitment to containing Chinese expansionism and increasing defense spending. He expects the Trump-Xi summit to produce deals on aerospace and agricultural exports, though fundamental trade imbalances are unlikely to be resolved. (8/16)Alejandro Peña Esclusa highlights alleged voter fraud in Peru, warning that leftist "Marxist" forces utilize international support to manipulate elections. Ernesto Araújo discusses deep-seated corruption in Latin America, describing it as a geopolitical tool for "totalitarian powers" to undermine the free world and honest governance. (9/16)Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa report on the Venezuelan regime's efforts to delay elections, fearing a landslide victory for the opposition. Araújo discusses Lula da Silva's weakening support in Brazil and the rise of Flavio Bolsonaro. Human rights violations, including the torture of political prisoners, continue in Venezuela. (10/16)Edmund Fitton-Brown analyzes the "ragged" maritime blockade between the U.S. and Iran in the Strait of Hormuz. He warns that allowing Iran to claim control over international waterways sets a dangerous global precedent and suggests Iran believes it can outlast American resolve. (11/16)Edmund Fitton-Brown differentiates between various regional "ceasefires," noting the Hamas-Israel ceasefire is particularly fragile. He argues that progress toward a meaningful peace process requires intense pressure on Hamas'ssponsors, specifically Qatar and Turkey, to force the group to fulfill its disarmament obligations. (12/16)David Daoud reports that the Lebanon ceasefire has forced the IDF into static positions, giving Hezbollah tactical advantages for hit-and-run attacks. He contends that the Lebanese government lacks the means to disarm Hezbollah, as the group views its military power as existential. (13/16)David Daoud criticizes the U.S. for accepting the linkage between Iranian and Lebanese negotiations, which provides Hezbollah "breathing room" to regenerate. He anticipates Hezbollah will avoid immediate conflict to focus on long-term rearmament and social rebuilding, eventually emerging as a much stronger threat. (14/16)Mary Anastasia O'Grady discusses the historic indictment of a sitting Mexican governor, Ruben Rocha Moya, for conspiracy to import narcotics and cartel activity. She highlights the potential political fallout for the Morena party and suggests criminal organizations may be influencing elections through violence and intimidation. (15/16)Conrad Black argues that Canada must lower corporate taxes to remain competitive with the U.S. and attract capital. He notes a growing separatist movement in Alberta, driven by economic frustrations and opposition to federal ecological policies, while criticizing Prime Minister Carney's lack of clear policy initiatives.

Laura continues her interview with Sarah Ferris moving beyond the initial deception to unpack the deeper patterns, behaviours, and mindset of a conman - and what we must learn from it.   Laura and Sarah profile Peter Cowell, who posed as an Admiral, extracting money from senior leaders, veterans and even targeting former police detectives for an organisation he called IntSAR – the International Sea Air Rescue Service, a global humanitarian project with a military-style structure.  It turns out, it is a work of fiction.   Drawing on both lived experience and behavioural analysis, Laura and Sarah explore how perpetrators create influence, maintain control, and continue offending - often across multiple victims - while appearing credible and trustworthy to others.   Key Takeaways: • The Pattern Behind the Persona: Why conmen rely on consistency, charm, and credibility - and how this masks repeat offending • Grooming & Influence: How trust is built quickly and used to establish control and dependency • Serial Behaviour: Why there is almost always a history -and often multiple victims • Missed Warning Signs: How red flags are explained away, minimised, or only recognised in hindsight • Turning the Tables: The power of awareness, collective action, and refusing to stay silent • Prevention & Protection: Why recognising patterns early is key to reducing harm and protecting others   This conversation goes beyond the individual case - it is about understanding the psychology of deception and the patterns of behaviour that enable it.

Retired four-star Admiral and former commander of US Special Operations Command William McRaven oversaw the 2011 Navy SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden. Beyond his military career, McRaven became widely known for his “Make Your Bed” commencement speech which has been viewed more than 150 million times. Now he's out with a new book, Duty, Honor, Country, and Life, a collection of speeches and essays rooted in the West Point motto he's spent a lifetime trying to embody. Admiral McRaven speaks, at times necessarily diplomatically (as we’re at war), at times candidly, about the state of the US military under the Trump administration, the war with Iran, and his growing concern that the president may not fully understand the limits of military power. He reflects on what it means to maintain integrity in an institution under pressure, why he believes the next generation of Americans gives him reason for optimism, and what he wants readers to take away from a book he says is as much for civilians as it is for soldiers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
