Ok y\u2019all here it is. Many of you might follow David Goggins and may have seen his recent two hour unhinged rant against me and the SEAL Teams more broadly. It\u2019s sad to watch, honestly, and this kind of stupid drama is the last thing I want to be posting about. But the podcast he did was sufficiently vicious and unhinged to warrant a response. I never truly understood how much he hated the SEAL teams until now. I never understood how much he saw himself as a victim. If you don\u2019t want to suffer through his 2 hour rant, you can get the basic idea from my video here.
This absurd outburst of his originates from a 2 minute answer I gave in an interview 3 years ago, where I was randomly asked about him. I wasn\u2019t really positive about him, nor was I negative. I was apathetic. I gave the most honest answer I could about how he is viewed by the SEAL community. You\u2019ll see the clip in my video here, and you\u2019ll see how the podcast host misquoted it to make it clickbait.
David\u2019s reaction was pretty unhinged. Not just against me, but against the whole SEAL community. I\u2019ve clipped certain parts of his interview in my video so you know what I\u2019m responding to, but if you want a holistic understanding of his 2 hour rant, you\u2019ll have to find the podcast on YouTube. It\u2019s easy to find. (He doesn\u2019t actually get to me until about 1 hour into the podcast. Before that, he\u2019s just ranting about how much he hates SEALs. I don\u2019t even bother commenting on that first hour because it\u2019s so absurd and misleading.)
The main reason I\u2019m doing this is because Goggins attacks the men who don\u2019t have a platform to respond or defend themselves. Well, I do. So I\u2019ll speak on their behalf and tell all of you the truth about Goggins and what the SEAL teams are really about.\xa0
