Episode 332: All That Remains frontman Phil Labonte on guns and heavy metal

We start off the podcast with editor-in-chief Jack Murphy discussing both some of the criticism and praise we’ve received over SOFREP.com posting footage of the killing of Green Berets in Niger by ISIS.

Ten shows back on Episode 321, our friend Steve Balestrieri who’s the head writer and editor at SpecialOperations.com told us about his work interviewing combat veterans from some of the older wars.  I wanted to bring him on for an update on that.  I’ve always loved getting older vets on tell their stories whether it’s […]

Episode 330: A CIA officer’s perspective on the inception of the war in Afghanistan

Joining us for Episode 330 is the author of “Foxtrot in Kandahar,” Duane Evans.

Episode 325: Getting in-depth on North Korea with Shannon Miller

We had to start off Episode 325 with our Marine Corps veteran writer Nick Coffman after hearing the news on MARSOC 7.  For the past couple of years, Nick’s been working hard to get out the truth behind the story of alleged war crimes at the hands of MARSOC in Afghanistan that we now know never […]

Episode 323: Buck Sexton gives his take on political news and the mainstream media

Buck has been a friend to the website at large since around it’s inception, but we’ve never brought him on for a full episode in studio, just the occasional quick update.  So it was cool to sit down with him and get into some interesting subject matter ranging from where the mainstream media gets things […]
