This is the best podcast ever! You teach people to learn new things and to push through when things get’s hard! I’m 12 and i’ve read all your books. Thank you for inspiring me.

podcast changed my life !!!!!

For a person who’s supposed to be so great and effective, why did he shuck and jive when it came to actually stepping up to be a leader to our country- leaving it in the hands of corruption. The world is in question and he would rather surf and play guitar. Good call.

Fantastic pod cast. Thank you for sharing the incredible true stories. , thank you for service 👍

This podcast is an amazing listen for anyone (some might not be the most child friendly with language and some heavy topics but teens and older). Some have great history lessons, some have great international insight, some just have great life lessons and stories from all kinds of backgrounds and walks of life. I feel Jocko does a good job staying very neutral politically and doesn’t show his hand on topics speaking about them from a relatively “detached” point of view. There’s lessons you can take from everyone in life and the various guests and hosts certainly give you many lessons you can apply. Your life will only be better if you apply lessons and experiences heard here to your daily life.

Thank You!!!

I have been listening for years. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge!

Good stories of overcoming challenging circumstances, leadership development and motivational inspiration. But the motivated reasoning, special pleading and bias confirmation used by platforming fringe experts who are not respected by the consensus of respected experts in their fields leaves a bad taste in my mouth every time. I can name Gabrielle Lyons, Huberman, and Peter Attia off the top of my head. Furthermore, platforming anti-science, conspiracy theorist, junkie quacks like RFK, Jr and Tulsi Gabbard is just too much. There is an ideological narrative of belief being sold here to ignorant and credulous gullibles. While I think many have made a lot of positive changes as a result of Jocko, the pseudoscience and political misinformation he platforms and promotes is dangerous to a free and open society.

Good…

Best podcast!!! 👍🏽🫡🫡

5 stars. Enough said

Jocko is a legend and his interview with Jonny Kim is one of the best episodes of all time. Love the content, keep pushing it up and out!

I love this show. I love getting the perspective of from former soldiers

Great show, excellent guests, love it!

Loved this podcast until episode 21 when discussing women in special forces and they made it very clear what their opinion was on that subject. Extremely disappointing as I loved listening to Jocko for motivation, and now knowing that I would not be an asset according to them is disheartening.

My favorite podcast. Great leadership lessons, military stories, and the bjj content. Jocko is the perfect blend of motivational, inspirational, and thoughtful.

Always real, always outstanding, always appreciated! Aloha

Biggles was a great memorial conversation.

This is my favorite podcast. Great leadership insights. I love the military history and Jiu-Jitsu discussions.

The literature in the code of federal regulations and the M 21 manuals for ratings are clear on the scheduler criteria for service connected disabilities, they are public knowledge. What you have are veterans who let their ego and pride come in the way of their benefits. They think they can not have to talk about what they did and get paid. That’s not how it works, bud. Do you want the prize money at the end of the level? Then you need to play the game. When you hear a veteran has their hundred percent permanent in total, you have two options. The first is get jealous and criticize them and how they got theirs, or two to make the conscious decision to get it for yourself. Recovery is selfish. You are not part of a team at the VA. You are there to recover for yourself and your family.

Hooked within 5 minutes. Best podcast ever for driving and showering.

This jujitsu competitor is brutally honest about steroids and his humor is priceless (“…it works for Gabby”)…. And a refreshingly honest and spontaneous dude.

This podcast and Jocko have helped elevate my life to levels I never knew possible. Not just in fitness, but in work, family, personal development, lifestyle and in mindset. I am grateful that I am able to absorb such profound content everyday, and it is 100% true that discipline = freedom!!!

Awesome messages and his discipline talks have changed my life.

I want to thank you so much for giving the Chaplain story time. I am really looking forward to more Chaplain stories.

Jocko, loved this episode! You are right, you can’t find the Chaplain Rayburn’s book anywhere. Please record yourself reading it and make it available!

Jocko, I’ve been listening to your podcasts for years now. I just watched a really interesting story (actually a really unjust story) about a group of green berets helping in western Africa, who were ambushed by militants on 10/4/17 and were nearly all killed. Michelle Black’s story, called ‘Sacrifice | The Green Berets, a Fateful Ambush, and a Gold Star Widow’s Fight for the Truth’, is quite damming to the military brass who decided to alter and conceal the truth regarding the unfortunate events that took her husband‘s and several others’ lives. If you’d like to see for yourself, you can find this story on YouTube in a video published by Popo Medic just a few days ago. Thanks for all your content. You have been exceptionally instrumental in my development as a leader.

Thank you Sir for putting your voice and great gift of storytelling to the words from the book “By water beneath the walls”!

I didn’t think you could top the Crazy Horse podcast. I stand corrected. General McFarland was outstanding

Awesome conversation with general McFarland definitely 6 hours well invested listening

Super long. Incredible leaders of yesterday in the military leading the way in the free world. Loved the episode.

Jocko podcast, good. Jocko, good. Echo, good. Guests, good. Books, good. Good

You hinted a while back that you were reading The Peloponnesian by Thucydides. Any chance you will be doing a podcast (most likely a series) in the near future? I really enjoy listening to you and Echo, Thanks

As an active Seabee 2005-2017, SW1 (SCW) Williams, Thomas, I was brought to tears to hear you show your love for Seabees. 2009 I was in JBB Balad assigned to CJSOTF. The time I spent with the 5 and 10 Group with a very special time. The respect shown by those guys and gals was definitely worth every minute we spent work for them. I appreciate you shining a light on what we do and our commitment to it. Seabee Can Do, WITH COMPASSION FOR OTHERS, WE BUILD WE FIGHT. The difficult we do right away, the impossible takes just a little longer.

Omg Jocko you are the GOAT I love you so much and you have helped me with many of my problems In life you have helped me become a successful person in life I read extreme ownership you have helped me as a 13 year old thank you

Your a class act jocko. Nobody can hide that kind of crazy for life. We know who u are week after week. Your a good man

We love Jocko’s work in my family. Leadership Strategy and Tactics was a good read. Nephew and nieces love the Warrior Kid books. Uncle Chuck is the man right now. Echo Charles is awesome, and it is great to see him giving Jocko opportunities to shine on almost every podcast. Keep up the good work EC!

Outstanding podcast! Jocko gave a play by play explanation to his Task Unit’s role in addition to the other important players in the Battle of Ramadi . This should put to rest all the negativity for those who endured one of the most contested times in Iraq . Let’s keep the memories of our Fallen Angels alive and to those who continue to bear the scars of war. Semper Fidelis Godfather Ramadi 2006

17 year old here, love the show Jocko and Echo. Thanks for everything, love you guys.

Great listen on a weekly basis

Dig in a little bit deeper on this guys service background & draw your own conclusions. Semper Fi

Great! Better than good!

Been listening to Jocko since he’s started. He and Echo do a fantastic job! Huge fan! Keeping me on the path.

I’ve listened to all the podcasts up to 365 and eagerly await catching up on the rest. The Jocko Podcast is a fantastic show that has had me laugh out loud, shed a tear (good tears!), and learn a ton. Some episodes have been so good that I’ve listened multiple times and have taken notes. Jocko’s dedication to distilling and teaching the principles of leadership is unmatched. I’m guessing, but my political views might differ from his, and I will still continue listening. This podcast has made me more patient and open-minded. It has challenged and pushed me to be a better leader and person. Thanks Jocko, for all the amazing work! It is truly appreciated. P.S. Confirmed 10,000% improvement in my deadlift from listening to this podcast.

I love this podcast for all the same reasons the haters give less than 5 stars. I just read a bunch of the negative comments and they are almost as entertaining as Echo's tangents!

I listened to Echo’s question & Jocko’s response ~ the 56 minute mark at least 3-4 times. Because I’m the person that sometimes makes requests:assignments too difficult for the people on my team by providing the extra/unnecessary information. I love this show because I am constantly learning how to be a better person & leader. Thank you

🔥🔥🔥

Love the show. You really know how to run a discussion or keep it going. Your guests are buy and large great. Arnold on the other hand was consistent with what I expected. A bit to narcissistic for my taste. A lot of “I did this” and not “we did that.” I don’t think he has any ill intent. Just an overbearing love affair with himself.

Absolutely the best interview I have listened to of Arnold “promoting” his book. Jocko and Echo make it easy for the conversation to just flow and their admiration and respect for Arnold can be heard throughout the entire 2 hours (more or less) of this podcast. Loved it and highly recommend it.
