Geoff Dardia joins Mike Ritland to expose the real story behind Afghanistan, the missed chance to take out Bin Laden, and how politics destroyed 20 years of sacrifice.Dardia is a former Master Sergeant and Green Beret who lived it for real — from kicking doors in hostile countries to hunting bad guys under night vision.Before that?He was supposed to be a Navy SEAL — training shoulder-to-shoulder with Mike Ritland — until a medical issue derailed that path. Instead of quitting, Geoff took the fight to Special Operations, racking up multiple deployments as a Weapons Sergeant, Intel Sergeant, and Ops Sergeant.Since leaving active duty, Geoff's been on a different kind of warpath — fighting for the health and survival of the special operations community. As the founding director of SOF Health Initiatives for the Task Force Dagger Foundation, he's tackling the issues nobody wants to talk about — traumatic brain injuries, cancer, and the hidden wounds killing more operators than enemy bullets ever did.

Saying Pirates fans are fed up is an understatement. And on this episode of Mike Drop, Mike Asti talks with Gabe Mazefsky, a fan gaining some local for fame for being part of an initiative to try to force Bob Nutting to sell the team, about what led to the billboards, why Paul Skenes is the tipping point, the vibe of the fanbase and what's planned if things don't change soon.

Mark Lamb is the unapologetically bold, newly-retired Sheriff of Pinal County, Arizona, who made national waves for bringing old-school grit and modern media savvy to law enforcement. Serving from 2017 to 2024, Lamb wasn't just a badge and a gun—he became a digital-era lawman, turning to YouTube to share raw, unfiltered police footage while regularly appearing on FOX News, Newsmax, Live PD, and 60 Days In. Known for his no-nonsense stance on border security, Lamb stepped into the political arena in 2024, launching a U.S. Senate run to replace Kyrsten Sinema—only to be edged out in a high-profile primary battle by Kari Lake. After nearly two decades of service and a reputation that stretches far beyond Arizona, Sheriff Lamb officially hung up his badge on December 31st, 2024—but he's far from done making noise. #sheriff #LEO #navyseals #sherifflamb #arizona #lawenforcement #backtheblue Subscribe to the Mike Drop Patreon Page to see Ad-Free Episodes Early + Bonus Content at https://www.patreon.com/mikedrop ---------- Support Mark Lamb - Get Your Copy of Mark's Book 'American Sheriff: Traditional Values in a Modern World' and 'American Sheriff: Rules to Live By' at https://www.sherifflamb.com/ Website - https://www.sherifflamb.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/americansheriff/ X - https://x.com/sherifflamb1 Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/sherifflamb ---------- Sponsors: C.

Ethan Thornton is the founder of MACH Industries, a next-generation defense technology and manufacturing company that's dedicated to redefining the future of modern combat through their hydrogen-powered unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and drone defense systems. A 21-year-old MIT dropout, Ethan left higher learning in 2023 after receiving a Thiel Fellowship from tech startup investor Peter Thiel (as well as placing on Forbes 30 under 30 list) to pursue working at MACH full-time. Considered by some to be a modern tech savant who shares the stage with the likes of Elon Musk or Marvel's fictional billionaire Tony Stark, Ethan's goal is to create more cost-effective and efficient defense systems by replacing traditional munitions with hydrogen-powered alternatives. He's also attracted significant attention for his work at the Department of Defense, with his innovative approach to crafting weapons systems like Viper, Glide, and Stratus leading some to believe that MACH may very well be rewriting the rulebook when it comes to combat engagements and aerial warfare.

Addiction, destruction, and warrior mentality with former Delta Force Special Operator Tyler Grey. Grey is a distinguished Army veteran who served with the 75th Ranger Regiment and has since found success in the entertainment world on the hit TV series 'SEAL Team' and 'Suicide Squad'. Tyler and Mike are joined by Lauren Ungeldi, best-selling author and speaker, who's history of collaborating with high-profile politicians, war heroes, doctors and media figures has led her to helping shape the stories of countless decorated veterans like Tyler.

When Ret. Master Sergeant Darrell Utt set his sights on joining the legendary Green Berets, he could never have anticipated the journey that would take him to the heart of Baghdad during one of the deadliest periods of the war in Iraq. Known for his tactical acumen and strategic thinking, Utt's leadership at 10th Special Forces Group was pivotal during his '06-'07 deployments. Over the course of his ten combat deployments, Utt earned five Bronze Star Medals, one with valor for heroism in Baghdad (2006), and the Larry Thorne Award for best operational detachment. In his hard-hitting memoir, 'Grit to Glory: A Green Beret's Journey from West Virginia to the Streets of Baghdad' Utt revisits his journey through the treacherous streets of Baghdad during his 2006 rotation as the team sergeant of ODA 043 - recounting eight months of brutal unconventional warfare and revealing the raw realities of combat.

From the Navy SEALs, to Delta Force, Marines, and the French Foreign Legion—this Veteran's Day, we're honoring all America's warriors with five unforgettable stories from former Mike Drop guests. Every November 11th, America celebrates its service men and women, reflecting on the heroism of those who have selflessly served our great nation. For some this is a day of gratitude, and for others, a day of regret. Each veteran featured has a unique journey, from moments of courage and sacrifice to powerful experiences that helped shape them into the men they are today. USMC Veteran Ryan Rogers reflects on the times he was made to be a man of his word in Afghanistan, while Delta Force operator Tom Satterly recounts the intense Battle of Mogadishu—more commonly known as Black Hawk Down. Navy SEAL and French Foreign Legionnaire Taylor Cavanaugh opens up about his battle with addiction and redemption in France; Navy SEAL Zack Ferguson speaks on family, duty, and devastation; and the Sheriff of Baghdad, John 'Shrek' McPhee, shares remarkable solo missions, including his role in bringing down Saddam Hussein's sons.  It's been an honor sharing the stage with such remarkable men and having the opportunity to share their stories with our listeners. A sincere and heartfelt thank you to those who have served, and the family and citizens that support their efforts. Happy Veteran's Day.

In this “Mike Drop” edition of the Digital Business Evolution podcast, Mike and Jess discuss what they think about or ask themselves when they are choosing a mastermind. Some of the things talked about in this episode are asking yourself will this room and investment stretch you? Is the person hosting the event in a place where you want to be and do they have the ability to get you there? Jess has noted that the most successful entrepreneurs are not waiting to make decisions when they get to where they want to go; but are actually, creating and making decisions from where they are right now for where they want to go!  It can be hard to make these decisions and feelings of not belonging or financial struggles can come up which lead to people feeling uncomfortable; the key however, is to feel uncomfortable to grow or else you will stay where you are.  As always, cheers to your evolution! Key Takeaways: Learn how biggest return on investments you get are not tangible items you walk away with in your hands. Learn why its called a mastermind and why all these amazing things come out of people in the room. Learn how can you help someone?

Have you ever gone to an event and just knew it was going to be life-changing? That is how I felt after leaving my dear friend Mike Ganino's Mike Drop Era retreat in New York City.I knew I had to record a podcast for you where I unpacked my notes and take-aways. In this raw (and sometimes messy) episode - I recapped my key takeaways from the event, which featured dynamic discussions on storytelling, personal branding, and the power of intentional communication with Mike and three expert guest speakers.Stories build connections - and I am so excited to share some insights I learned on how storytelling captivates your audience. I share tips from: Marisa Corcoran about the art of copywriting and how giving your content a unique name can clarify your message. Laura Gassner Otting and the strategies for gaining ultimate control over your content to connect freely and authentically with your audience.Erica Reitman on creating a 'category of one'—establishing a personal brand so distinct, no one could possibly confuse you with anyone else.Whether you're looking to refine your brand or enhance your storytelling techniques, I hope you enjoy listening to my takeaways - and behind the scenes of this incredibly AWESOME event!At the end of the day it reminded me of the power of being “in the room where it happens” - there is so much magic that happens in a small group mastermind! P.S. We have a few spots left for our #GetSocialSmart Vegas Mastermind this Fall - we'd love to have you there - check out the details here!

You're trained in trauma and combat care - taking every measure possible to save lives wherever possible, no matter the cost. But when you come back to the states, suddenly civilian medicine becomes a whole different ballgame. Just take it from Nikki Selby - she's a Registered Nurse with over 28 years of experience in healthcare, and more than 23 of those years were serving in the Navy.  Since she retired as a Lt. Commander, Nikki's traveled the globe working alongside executive protection, started her own business, and she's even featured on Mike Drop before, way back on Episode 48 of the podcast in 2019. So what's changed since COVID rocked the country? Does Ozempic (and other semaglutide weight loss solutions) really work? And most importantly - what's the secret to living healthy and staying out of the hospital? Let's ask Nikki.

The crisis at the southern border is a hotly-contested topic among Americans, but few have seen the realities of the situation quite like Arizona Chief Deputy Sheriff Matthew Thomas. During his 31 years on the force, he's served in a variety of roles, from SWAT to Detention to Narcotics, and he's seen firsthand just how awful human beings can be to one another when there's something to be gained. In fact, that's why he sat down with Mike in studio in the first place - to talk about the very real dangers happening every day at the border, and why those hazards often seem to spill over into both sides of the fence. ---------- Get Your Copy of 'Interceptors: The Untold Fight Against the Mexican Cartels' at: https://www.onetimenation.com/shop Support Matthew Thomas -  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deputy_onetime/ Website: https://www.onetimenation.com/ ---------- Sponsors:  Ned Visit https://www.helloned.com/mikedrop to get 15% off your first order using promo code MIKEDROP.

Every warrior has a different reason for going over the wire. For Chris Cappa, it was almost destiny; a chance encounter at a local gym turned into a series of relationships that were suddenly severed in a 2011 Afghanistan Boeing Chinook shootdown - otherwise known as Extortion 17. Soon after, Chris found himself headed to bootcamp, and before long, deploying at the Tip of the Spear with SEAL Team Seven in West Africa and Afghanistan.  It wouldn't be long before Chris would find his real passion - canine handling with Mickey, the scrappy dog he feared may have been a non-starter right out of the gate. Turns out, great things really do come from small beginnings.   ---------- Support Chris Cappa - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_chriscappa Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WarriorDog/videos/warrior-dog-home-whandler-program/380732714475128/ Support the Warrior Dog Foundation -  The Warrior Dog Foundation: https://warriordogfoundation.org/donate Teamdog: https://teamdog.shop/ ---------- Sponsors:  Black Buffalo Go to blackbuffalo.com/discount/MIKE and use promo code Mike Drop at checkout for 20% off your first order!

Ryan Fugit is pretty good at seeing the bigger picture. Nowadays, he's a podcast host - hosting 'Combat Stories,' a weekly interview series dedicated to sharing war stories from some truly incredible veteran warriors - but before podcasting, he was a veteran himself, having served over seven years as an Army AH-64 Apache Helicopter pilot in Afghanistan in the post-9/11 era. After that, he spent eight years at the CIA (or 'The Agency', as it's known internally), supporting warfighters indirectly from a different kind of foxhole.  When it comes to providing additional support, whether it's in the air above a battlefield or inside the very technology that keeps us safe, it's safe to say that Ryan knows just how valuable those moment-to-moment decisions can be. The smallest move, the slightest tilt, and suddenly, everything could come tumbling down. After all - whoever said piloting a helicopter was easy?  ---------- Subscribe to Combat Story (Podcast) on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1HfaevfdgCfgc5Zjpcq99a?si=827659e3ddc04619 Support Ryan Fugit -  Website: https://www.combatstory.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/combatstory YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCyApoJr-mNmdMNwdk22xEQ ---------- Sponsors:  Beam Take advantage of Beam's biggest sale of the year and get up to 40% off for a limited time when you go to https://www.shopbeam.com/MIKEDROP and use promo code MIKEDROP at checkout! ---------- Black Buffalo Go to blackbuffalo.com/discount/MIKEDROP and use promo code Mike Drop at checkout for 20% off your first order!

When he's not hosting his podcast, he's hard at work over at Teamdog, training elite protection dogs and providing nutrition, supplies, and insight solutions for dog owners everywhere.

It takes all sorts to make the world, but only a select few are chosen to lead. Just ask Shane Hiatt - he's a former Point Man for SEAL Team 3, where he met and served together with our very own Mike Ritland. Since then they've been good friends for over 25 years, with Shane swinging by to visit whenever he's in town. He's a modern nomad, living out of his truck for over 15 years (a self-described 'van-lifer' before it was cool) and he owns SH9, an elite knife company that ships products all over the world. He's even been on the podcast before, way back on Episode 50 with Clint Emerson.  Since then, Shane's been traveling, crafting knives and spinning yarns all over the country. But there's a lot more to his past that wasn't revealed last time he was on Mike Drop - that's why he's sitting down with Mike again to share a collective look back at where they've come from early in their careers, and the men they'd eventually grow to become.  ---------- Chapters: 00:00 - Intro 03:53 - This Is All A Huge Mistake 10:46 - I Live In My Truck 16:07 - Growing Up in the Rio Grande Valley 21:22 - Problems with Grandpa-Dad 34:52 - DON'T Become a Navy SEAL 43:44 - BUD/S and Two Deployments 54:57 - Testing Mettle on the Somalia Coast 01:02:15 - A Navy SEAL in College 01:11:42 - Now I Owed the Navy Three Years 01:17:23 - How Shane Hiatt Met Mike Ritland 01:29:00 - A Bad Hat in Fort Chaffee ---------- Support Shane Hiatt - Get One of Shane's Knives At: https://www.sh9.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SH-sl5qm Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sh9outdoorshop ---------- Sponsors:  American Financing American Financing's salary-based mortgage consultants will help you consolidate uour debt into one payment.

Retired Navy SEAL Drago Dzieran has a complicated past. Before serving twenty years at the Tip of the Spear, he was a political prisoner in his home country of Poland after they assumed Communist rule. After immigrating to America, he became a citizen, joined the military, and not long after started serving with Jocko Willink over at SEAL Team 2, before eventually transitioning to SEAL Team 4. He's operated all over the world, stopped a lot of bad guys, and even archived his travels in his memoir 'The Pledge to America: One Man's Journey from Political Prisoner to U.S. Navy SEAL'.  What makes a man move away from his home to fight for another?

Nobody understands the border crisis quite like Vince 'Rocco' Vargas. Though most know him now as the actor behind Gilly Lopez on FX's 'Mayans M.C.', Vince is also a retired specialized law enforcement BORSTAR agent, where he operated for years on both sides of the border. He's also a veteran, having been deployed as an Army Ranger, and the author of 'Borderline: Defending the Homefront', where he shares more stories from his work in law enforcement.  Having traveled the country and witnessed the problem firsthand, it's safe to say that Vince has got more than a few hot takes on how to tackle the avalanche of issues that make up the border crisis.

She's the Founder and CEO of Rachel Scheer Nutrition, host of the Scheer Madness podcast, and actually a returning guest on Mike Drop, from all the way back on Episode 49.  So what's she been up to since she's been away?
