Shawn Ryan Show with Vigilance Elite - Episode 001

thank you thank you I know it's been a long time coming thank you so time. welcome to the shawn ryan show so we're talking about doing this podcast for a.

long time and we kind of decided fuck it we're gonna go for the late night show. look so took a little longer than nah we were planning but anyways we got took us. a while to find a director too so everybody give it up for griffin over. here our director oh yeah Griffin all right so we got a guest we're gonna.

bring them in and it's somebody you all know we're gonna talk to a former SEAL. former CIA owner of vigilance elite Sean Ryan.

so we've all noticed you've been gone for what damn near the entire second. quarter and we're good enough to avoid a fucking event. I've been very many videos yet and then very lively on the gram or any of the. other social media platforms what's going on. no thanks for having me Sean I appreciate it but now you know I just.

fought Ben I have a lot going on you know I'm getting married. three months and you know recently moved from Boca Raton to Tennessee to Franklin. Tennessee and right away got that property she ready ranch have been hard. at it trying to get that thing up and running and it is it's up and running.

now so that's good we're trying to get this podcast thing. going sound checks studio you know I mean you know how it is having a podcast. and you know I mean shit you got a late night show look at all this lighting. you've done I mean the shit's incredible but what else you know and then online. training apparel business we had those flannels they went crazy so yeah I mean. I just I've been busy so speaking of shooter ready ranch.

you made that video back in I can't remember one a couple months ago maybe. January and you had these big plans and then everything kind of you know we. didn't really hear much about it so what's happening with that no I mean. everything's going good you know we I think we can get 500 yards out of it we. got we got a cabin out there that clients can stay in we've got you know.

the range put this big wall up its width and had we the people you know painted. on it which is pretty fucking cool and yeah we just we actually just had our. first client out there last weekend well I'm glad to hear that it's it's coming. together and that it's ready so we saw I checked out your Instagram before you.

came out here and I saw some a lot of pictures of some. pretty cool videos of you and UFC fighter Andrei Arlovski was he'd. training out there with you yeah yeah he came out he came out we had a couple of. days of training goes it was uh I mean he's a good shooter I got is that guy I.

mean being a former heavyweight champ UFC fighter is he like his big is you. would think he's would be and does he intimidate you you know I didn't yes he. is as big as you think he is but we're or would be but you know I I i googled. his uh his stats and and and everything about him before he came out and it said.

six three and normally I wouldn't think six three is like really tall but I'll. tell you what when he walked in my kitchen about three days ago I was like. holy shit me claws alone on that guy if he hit you it's it's you're in for a. surprise and yeah I mean it he's intimidating.

there's no doubt about it so yeah you know he is so on Instagram we've been. seeing a lot of this preparedness and this ski and and a lot of whis and. you're a wine drinker right so why don't you like did you switch to whiskey or. you know what what is that all about. now I didn't switch to whiskey he is a big whiskey drinker and you know the.

first time I talked to him on the phone we were kind of setting this stuff up. and preparing dates and what he wanted to train on and and how he wanted it to. go how many days and and at the end of that conversation he. just you know he says make sure you prepared me some of this yes laughing. and I was like yeah of course I'll person I'll prepare some whiskey so.

that's where that whole thing came from but yeah that almost sounds like that. sounds very similar to some of your story times which I know you get a lot. of requests from your from your audience so four story times and I'm just kind of. wondering where do those where do you come up with these stories are they real. are there real experiences are they like half real half fairytale like what what.

is the deal with the story times now they're all real they're all 100% raw. it'll make any of that shit up I came up with story time you know starting. YouTube channel and I was looking at all my competitors and they all are so. there's such hard asses and they have no sense of humor or you know at least it's.

not displayed when in their marketing and so I wanted to bring some humor and. do you know very sore subject and so I figured well well do the story times but. ya know they're all real stories from deployments or or from training and and. rather than talk about all the badass shit we did at you know the SEAL team or. over at the agency I thought well why don't we talk about some of the funny.

shit that happened and some of the fuck-ups and shit that you can kind of. sit back and laugh about now I mean there's so much of the other stuff that. there's not enough for this so so boom story time was born you know. well Shawn I saw a couple of these commercials you put up on in the middle. of your videos what did have to do with apparel I have to say Shawn you're a. pretty funny motherfucker there's no doubt about it you're pretty fucking.

funny - Shawn no doubt about it so tell us more about you know what is. this what it what kind of apparel do you have where you go home with it now you. know one of my goals the 2019 was to start building an apparel company and so. kind of started with t-shirts and hats and then I wanted to again I just wanted.

to be something a little bit different than what everybody else is doing so I. did flannels it seemed flannels in a while or great for concealed carry and. then you know I'll be damned they went wild so we're gonna bring them. back this ball they just they did great people love them and we're gonna try to. get some more designs out and you know we'll see where it goes but you have.

flannels went crazy and then so now we got you know it's summer and so people. asked for them still but we got a couple new t-shirt designs like this one I. think has hit the market right now sometime this week so there's gonna be. yeah some new shirts coming out t-shirts and and yeah so I wanted to get into. apparel I saw those flannels and I gotta say you are one sexy-looking.

motherfucker in those damn flannels there's I mean you look good. well thanks Shawn you look pretty fucking good yourself in those I mean. not as good as me but you know you're up there. so are you gonna bring those flannels back because I tried to buy one the.

other day and they're fucking gone but you know and I think I might actually be. a little better-looking than you if I were to wear that so you're starting. this big podcast were you planning to go with this what kind of guest or you're. gonna have what do you want to talk about uh you know just I wanted to start.

this podcast you know I'm ready for something new. you know the Train thing is awesome the apparel is awesome but you know I. fortunately have a TD and so whatever I start getting a little too comfortable. or maybe even a little bored I I got a venture off on other stuff so I. started the podcast and and the podcast idea turned into a video podcast idea. and then that wasn't good enough we're gonna do fireside chats and then so I.

figured you know fuck it babe we're good to studio and you know here we are but. and then what we're gonna talk about I mean you know the guests I the guests. I'm gonna have military friends so probably start with friends and then you. know who knows where the fuck it's gonna go but it's not gonna be all shooting. and guns and and in military it's gonna be a wide variety of stuff some of the.
