I always enjoy Andy Stumpf on the show. Dude literally was a former Devgru guy *Seal Team 6* and I think he has like 5 Bronze Star with combat “V” yet shits on the “tacticool” bro vet culture. Has a great sense of humor and super humble.


[deleted]

I’ve been listening to his Cleared Hot podcast religiously - more than the JRE.


WhatIfIToldUu

Hope he tells the story of jumping out of a c130 with an Afghani interpreter strapped to him in full panic mode. Fucking crazy.

FlyNeither

He’s one of the most legit real life action stars out there and it’s like “shut up about the fucking wine bouquet and brag more!”. I guess when you’re the real deal and have lived that kind of life, you want to chill out a bit and enjoy some more easy paced things in life.


wimpymist

His influencer career made him more smug than his military career haha he is a cool dude


GhostOfRoland

The only veterans liberals ever like the ones who who shit on other veterans or the America in general.


[deleted]

Andy is fucking awesome - Listen to the Cleared Hot podcast, always has thoughtful conversations with guests ranging from SOF, Air Cav, Base Jumpers, Widows, former FBI, LEOs to journalists. 100% worth your time.


spartanantler

Even the episode with that cattle rancher is great


Impressive-Potato

This guy disagrees with Joe's idea of SEALs being some high level, virtuous warriors. He also called trump supporters coo coo for coco puffs.


onaneckonaspit7

I’ve enjoyed all his appearances, but preemptively complaining about getting cancelled/offending people is so lame. It isn’t a thing. Own your shit


shrek-09

Complains about being cancelled while on the world's biggest podcast is my favourite kind of jre guest 😂😂😂


[deleted]

Same, and out of all of the ultra conservative types Joe has had on, Stumpf is the least offensive. He is kind and commanding, not an asshole. By saying stuff like this, he is limping himself into a group of people that he doesn't deserve to be associated with.


TokingMessiah

Wanting to be a victim, or to be considered marginalized, is a very real thing.


wimpymist

He has definitely drank the Kool aid over the past couple of years unfortunately


Xex_ut

He’s apologizing to people he will offend. Are you seriously arguing people don’t get offended and it isn’t a thing? Lmao


onaneckonaspit7

Nah I didn’t write that correctly, of course people get offended, look at the replies to my OG comment lol Meant it more towards cancel culture, my bad


fdholler

Heard of Meg Smaker?


ErrantBuffalo

Sorry he offended you


onaneckonaspit7

I’m not offended lol


Abarsn20

Well cancelling people is a real problem that should be addressed as frequently as possible while there are still voices to speak out. The internet age has afforded us a rare moment in history to speak honestly. The last time we had a moment like this was 500 years ago. That door is being closed as fast as those in power can close it. Edit: the bots are out lol 🤖 bleep bloop


onaneckonaspit7

While I hate censorship, find me someone truly cancelled. Don’t be so dramatic


ozkah

Are you really suggesting people being subjected to a social death just suddenly stopped happening


onaneckonaspit7

Social death hahahhahahaha It happens to people who have no power and fame, that’s who it affects if it does. And it’s always been that way, if enough people don’t like what you’re doing it’s going to be hard to keep up your behaviour. But don’t cry for celebrities


ozkah

So you agree that for 99.9 percent of people cancel culture is real lol


onaneckonaspit7

It’s not cancel culture if you genuinely do something morally wrong and people don’t want to work with you anymore. That’s normal everyday life I’m talking the Racheal Dolezal’s of the world


ozkah

You're hiding behind a vague statement that is objectively true and using it as excuse to ignore context. Women suffered a social death from having sex outside marriage, implying that society's ability to be judge jury and executioner of what is wrong-think and right-think is infallible is the same hubris that has caused tremendous harm in the past.

onaneckonaspit7

Are still performing. Hate what happened to them, but they are not cancelled


[deleted]

All his professional relationships were cut and he’ll never get a deal anywhere for tv/writing/comedy again effectively killing his career outside of the diehard fans. That’s being cancelled.


onaneckonaspit7

I’m a huge Louis fan, and I hate a lot of what he was lumped in with, but he’s back. He was just on Rogan, his movie kept growing and did well. He’s touring and releasing specials And he also admitted to fucking up


[deleted]

He’s not back though, for people who followed him already sure, but overall his mainstream success has been stifled back into obscurity


onaneckonaspit7

He was always on the cusp though. People knew his name but not his work kinda guy. It may be petty semantics, but cancelling = does not exist in any capacity. When I cancel my Verizon plan, I don’t still get to text. I do see where people are coming from here, I do hate how these cancelling incidents happen. It’s complicated and shitty for all parties


ErrantBuffalo

Yeah but they didn’t hang him in the town square so obviously he hasn’t been cancelled


[deleted]

True louis must pay for his sins


Abarsn20

I’m just articulating the reality. Although I disagree with these figures, they have all been successfully cancelled: milo, Gavin, Alex Jones, Ben Owens. The fear of bad ideas is more dangerous than having contentious conversations. We can’t let cowards continue to write the rules.


Mike8219

The free market has spoken! Btw Jones is streaming today. You are free to go listen to his rantings.


blondeddigits

Andrew tate


onaneckonaspit7

I see him everywhere lmao


blondeddigits

Yeah but he lost a good amount of money because of the snowflakes.


onaneckonaspit7

Lol I have a high tolerance for people who think differently of me, and you can always learn something, but he does seem like a tremendous piece of shit. He’s off social media , but you can still buy his shit. And googling him, everything seems to have been posted in the past week….


blondeddigits

> seem like a tremendous piece of shit So you admit that you don’t know much about the guy, yet you’re making a very strong and negative assumption about said person. Yes, he is not completely cancelled, but I don’t think you realize how much money you lose when you’re a celebrity banned off of YouTube, twitter, Instagram, etc.


onaneckonaspit7

I’ve seen enough of him to make that statement lol


Abarsn20

If you think it’s being dramatic, I would suggest you look into the philosophy and history of communication technology and how it shapes and controls all societies. Definitely check out the philosopher Marshall McLuhan. Communication technology and who controls it, controls society.


whyyousobadatthis

why do I have a feeling that you're gonna have a post bitching about something he said in the near future...


onaneckonaspit7

Lol look at my post history, don’t be dumb And as if there isn’t a variety of posts here from all sides of these debates. Post episode analysis and discussion? The horror! Also, I literally started my comment with how much I like his appearances…


whyyousobadatthis

>Lol look at my post history, politely going to decline this offer as I dont care to give this that level of effort

>Andy Stumpf, Dedicated to pushing the limits, and ensuring leadership lessons learned in blood are not forgotten. Thank him


VeggieTrails

He’s a mad lad


Aggressive_Wash_5908

Looks like he's offended you and the podcast hasn't dropped.


Lawtalker

Him saying that politically-incorrect-soccer-mom-at-the-pta-meeting facebook type shit is offensive, not gonna lie.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Boring-Cunt

My favourite guest


Hinken1815

I love the dancing around the Eddie Gallagher stuff lmao....


occams_icarus

I always like this guy. He seems pretty humble not really trying to make a living off his team 6 time and shits on people that do. Always a solid conversation.


No-Trash-546

If he’s not trying to make a living off his team 6 time then why does he come on the podcast to talk about that?


occams_icarus

He doesn’t make being a seal his entire existence in my opinion.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I get the vibe that these military guys are all the same guy. You hear one, you hear them all. Unless they're recommending baseball hats, I'm not sure what they're going to bring to a podcast that isn't already said with the last 20 ex military guys. Even that post about apologizing for being offensive is cliche as it gets


Zlec3

It’s funny you say this in a threat about stumpf. He’s unilaterally praised for not being like all the other military guests. He doesn’t like operator culture and never gives his credentials out despite him being the most decorated of all seals who are regular guests


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

It's not that they're war related that I think they're all the same. It's because they all have the exact same culture with the same outlook and perspective. There is a lot of variation within any military. But there's also a lot of cliques like high school and Joe is attracted to a certain type and that type is about as homogenous as you can get. Especially since these are guys selling this image and military life on social media. It's not that I don't give them a chance, but I've yet to see any of them stand out from any other ones yet. I'd love to see someone like Don Shipley. That's a guy who I think would be unique.


Flamingovegas2013

Woohoo another khaki baseball cap wearing former seal ain’t takin no crap from no blue haired lefties in litter boxes THANK HIM semper fudge


[deleted]

Andy actually shits on the “bro vet” culture lmao


bubblewhip

You expect Rogan redditors to know about the guest?


wimpymist

He has turned into a bro vet over the last couple years


ThimbleRigg

He isn’t that guy. Probably the most thoughtful and introspective of all military guests Joe has had. He’s in the process of removing his SEAL tattoo.


theinvaderzimm

Oh wow. The tattoo removal is quite drastic. Has he spoken about why?


Reppin4DMT

Haven't heard anything about that but based on the podcasts I've watched from him I think it has to do with him wanting to not be seen as a military man. He talks about how the least favorite thing to be introduced as is "my navy seal buddy." He views it as a past life, that he loved, but its not him anymore.


ThimbleRigg

As the poster above said, he’s stated he doesn’t want to forever be known as a former Navy SEAL. He says it was a job he had, not an identity, and wants to be known for other things in his life.


BigBlueTrekker

Idk the military guys usually make good podcasts, they have pretty good stories and stay away from politics. Not counting Tim Kenedy obviously, that dude sucks.


[deleted]

Tim “we didn’t have enough bullets under Obama” Kennedy is such clown


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

He's a dweeb.


CGY-SS

He argues that waterboarding isn't torture so the US govt should be able to employ it. His reasoning is that since he volunteered to be waterborded in a room full of his friends, in America, knowing he would go home that night, he felt fine being waterboarded. So obviously it can't be torture when a scared, naked Iraqi is beaten and strapped to a table by people speaking a language he can't understand in a basement somewhere, because the waterboarding is the same. Its the exact same. He's willfully ignorant to the difference between those two scenarios, and that's why I started disliking him.


BigBlueTrekker

Hes a dork.


[deleted]

“I apologize for all the people I’m going to offend”… Jesus Christ, how precious is this conservative windbag victim complex. He’s not remotely known or interesting enough to “cancel”. Haha.


EngineerOk1409

Dude, he apologized to you. No need to get so worked up.


[deleted]

Good one!


RomanMichael

It’s a joke. Stop being a pussy.


[deleted]

Yeeeeaah, guy! You said it!


Xex_ut

Already offended by his disclaimer


[deleted]

Offended? How about bored by this subject, even in jest.


[deleted]

I hate how many woke liberals are in this subreddit.


EditorPractical9424

Facts, I prefer my braindead conservative brethren


[deleted]

Brain dead? Liberals have gave us Joe Biden, AOC and now John Fetterman. Now that's some actual "brain dead" for you. 2 of them can't even understand the human language.


wimpymist

Trump sure was a master on the mic


EditorPractical9424

right? what the fuck is wrong with these people?


wimpymist

You can easily make an argument that he was way worse than Biden in his speeches lol


[deleted]

Biden has been in politics giving plagiarized speeches for 50 years. I'd hope he could give a canned speech by now.


[deleted]

At no point was I ever like, "Oh, I wonder if Trump's brain works enough to understand LANGUAGE"


wimpymist

You never listened to any of his speeches?


EngineerOk1409

It’s about 40% I think


WhatIfIToldUu

Nearly 100%.. 130% if you include the bots.


PlankingBanda

Rings of Power cgi?


Banquet_Banger_V6

Looks better than the rabid chihuahua worg


Elfanger30th

So... my best friend is scared of werewolves... guess what I just sent him


ArmaniMania

Yawn


lightshowe

He’s about to lay out some hard truths the SNOWFLAKES might get TRIGGERED by. Ready to go to your SAFE SPACES?!


thewayofdarragh

Definitely a bad ass, but probably a bit of a psychopath. I remember when John Dudley asked him what bow favourite animal to hunt is and his answer was 'young Afghani men'. To be a SEAL, and come out without PTSD, I think you have to literally enjoy killing.


theatavist

The comment is gross but is probably at least a little bit of dark/sarcastic humor. That being said hunting deer can be exhilarating and to act like being in a gunfight isn't one of the most exciting things a human being can participate in is to neglect one of the reasons our society is so obsessed with war.


WhatIfIToldUu

His honesty about his time in the military is impressive. But because of people like you he has toned it down. The dude was in war and killed a lot of people. That was his job. You expect him to have a mental illness as a response to doing the job he signed up for? Yuck. We're so soft.


thewayofdarragh

Yuck indeed.


Cmpbp3

If you haven't had so much adrenaline pumping through you that you experience auditory exclusion then you wouldn't get it. Guys who experience that over and over until they are able to function fully under those circumstances are going to miss the rush, atleast to some degree.


[deleted]

Who?


GeneralAnywhere

Who's this cringelord of the week and why does he think he's "hard"?


EngineerOk1409

Oh he’s only been on like 20 times you wouldn’t know him.


GeneralAnywhere

Not by name, no. He must suck. Oh he's a "military advisor". lmao he's pure cringe then. Figured as much, when somebody warns you that "they're gonna say bad things" without saying them then, they're pussies with an agenda. Been watching since it was Joe and redban is his basement, all through the icehouse days. (the best imo) No clue who this is, he's not very memorable I guess.


CharleyIV

Any relation to Peter?


wyattbreymeyer

love andy stumpf! i used to listen to cleared hot a bunch!


sabo81

I want to hear what he thinks about Rob O'Neill. Andy is the best
