the audience loved that episode. and uh they compared. our episode to all of his other episodes. and he's been on some major [ __ ]. podcasts. yep i know and um. and uh all of them said you know it's. the it's the best interview that they've. heard. uh with ed calderon and so. for those of you saying that thank you. very much. um but you know it's.

i always get really nervous interviewing. these guys and um. because i want to give them the best. interview but you know when it gets down. to when they sit down. in that chair it's it's [ __ ] easy. because. everything coming out of their mouth is. extremely it's just captivating. you know all of them and and especially. you know i was i needed a different. subject matter. you know what i mean to kind of keep.

keep going you know i need some fresh. material and [ __ ] hey man he knocked. it out of the park and. some of the stuff especially with china. you know and everything that's going on. today and uh you know we just got. through the election. and um and uh there's been all these. conspiracy theories and all this [ __ ]. and uh. and a lot of in a lot of truth too you. know going. going uh with with.

corruption you know in china and and. everything that they're doing. especially south of the border what he. was describing i thought it was. a really good time to bring all of that. to light. you know yeah no the timing was was. perfect for that. but um yeah it was it was really good. yeah i really enjoyed it i really. enjoyed getting to know him he just had. like a really. good energy about him he's confident. yeah. really confident in what he does.

and uh so he touched a new skill on one. of the brakes i heard oh yeah. he was somehow phone chargers came up i. think. he was looking to plug his phone in or. something and. and uh he recommended that i get a. certain type of phone charger and i was. like well why. he was like well you could decapitate. someone with it. oh it's like oh i thought he was gonna. say maybe you could charge your phone a. little faster. with that one but uh but yeah so. not only did we like break for.

sandwiches but i learned a new skill. so don't piss that man off no definitely. not. you know i don't know if i told you this. but. he gave me a million dollars did he yep. wow. and take a look at that. one million dollars what are you gonna. do with all that money babe. buy some goats goats yeah what i'll.

probably do is. buy myself some more gummy bears. but yes no seriously he said this came. out of uh. it's it's a i wish. it was a million dollars but it's still. pretty [ __ ] cool. it's like a sticker that these narcos. like put. under the steering wheel in their taxi. why it's like some kind of good luck.

thing or. really keeps them motivated so they put. a million dollar like a million dollar. bill. a gold million dollar bill like on the. in the taxi so he ripped this out of a. taxi. no way yeah gave it to me so we're gonna. have this framed and. we'll put it up next to uh what you're. not gonna put it in the vic. i don't think the vic is even starting. right now. that is cool though now we'll put it in.

you know we'll put it in uh we'll get it. framed he gave us a bunch of stuff like. some cool coins and. yeah and those um little cards that he. gave us we still have mine. yeah and the christmas card he gave us. death cards. in the christmas card that he sent so uh. yeah i want to get all that stuff framed. and we'll put it up in the studio. and uh who knows how much longer we're. even going to be in the studio. you know that's true we're looking at a. new studio. that'll be nice that's cool yeah i mean.

although. there is something about this studio. that i've said before. and i still believe it when people come. here. and they're in our house and then you. know we're getting to know one another. and then they come upstairs and there's. something about the energy. and the intimacy here that it's just it. just feels good and i think people. really open up. when they're in this chair you know yeah. yeah i'm i'm not what does that mean are. you worried to bring people into a new.

studio no thank you. it'll be great it's gonna go to [ __ ] no. i don't think it's gonna go to [ __ ] but. i do. think um it's been really nice here. you know but getting it out of the house. is gonna be really nice. so yeah it'll be good. yeah i will be i think i'm gonna go with. a whole new design really. yeah you should film it we will. we'll film it we'll we'll put something. together maybe take some polls or. something. see what you should do you want me to.

put some poles in there no. no. [Music]. what kind of establishment do you think. we're running here. but that's the auditioning polls no. oh you mean like uh take a look like an. election. yeah oh right yeah. well that those could be exciting polls. too.

you know but it'll be nice to have it. out of the house. yeah we've had a good run here and. there's a lot more to come for 2021. with the show yeah there is the. well we can't talk about that yet. because we still owe everybody another. debrief. i know but um man you know. a lot of people want to like they want. us to crank these out. and uh do like do it weekly but. i'm not gonna do it don't do it i would.

love to do that. but the quality of the show would go. this way because i you know how much. i've researched these. yeah you know before they show up it's a. lot and people don't realize that. yeah well you know the prep work because. i still like it but. you know and and and i don't want to. like. we're selective you know we're so very. selective with who we have on the show. and um following size none of that [ __ ].

matters i don't. care about that [ __ ] but. what i care about is that they're doing. good in the world and you know. yeah quality rather than quantity yeah. i'm not gonna bring some [ __ ] turd in. here to sit in that chair. yeah so um we have been getting a lot of. emails and um you know about people that. are. recommending people and so that's always. good you know. yeah i'm keeping a folder of all those i. would like. to interview a vietnam veteran.

and a world war ii veteran so if anybody. out here is listening and knows. of a anybody who's served in either one. of those wars who's done something. [Music]. amazing extravagant over the top. whatever email us. go to the website and email us please. because i would love to i would love to.

kind of. keep switching it up a little bit you. know um. so vietnam vet world war ii vet that. would be really really [ __ ] cool. yeah maybe like a fast mover like a f-16. pilot or an a10 pilot or a specter gun. ship. ac-130 pilot that would be cool that. would be really cool. you know that'd be different you know or. you know [ __ ] it. let's get an astronaut up here yeah.

going to the moon man. but but yeah i want to keep switching up. the content. you know it keeps it interesting for me. ed's story. you know all the [ __ ] that he's went. through you know another thing. uh that really stood out about his. interview was uh when he was telling him. talking about his mom mm-hmm and his mom. was saying. there is no coming home now i know and i. was like [ __ ] man. like i think i was starting to tear up a.

little bit. no for sure but but. what a solid human being you know he. really is like he just. you know and he's the first one we've. ever had that showed up. we did the podcast and he was gone i had. dinner with him the night before at a. nice steakhouse up in nashville. but showed up 9 00 a.m was here until. yeah it was like three hours of the. morning yeah. had a couple of coronas.

[Applause]. typical typical mexican fashion and. uh and then him and his boy were out the. [ __ ] door. gone yeah and uh but i think i think. we'll see him again. i do too he's a [ __ ] cool dude i do. and uh i you know it's. i love being around that guy yeah he's. just he's a really cool dude. like i said he just had a really unique. energy about him. yeah it was it was really interesting. yeah.

and um and uh to kind of talk to him. about the ptsd and. and uh what treatments he's been through. and and. uh that was that was cool too. and [ __ ] i forgot to even mention this. the guys that's got him across the. [ __ ] mexican border. i served with really yeah at the same. seal team that name came out. off off the record and um.

and i can't put it in yeah what i mean. but um but yeah. what a small world no [ __ ] right he'd. like dropped the name and i was like i'm. sorry did. who and he said his name and i was like. son of a [ __ ] i was a [ __ ] seal. teammate with that guy. that's crazy it was either silty mate or. team two. but uh yeah i haven't heard that name in. probably 10 years. oh my goodness you know and uh and he. held dead. yeah got him across the [ __ ] border. that's still like.

really good friends to this day really. yeah. wow that's really neat babe yeah. i thought that was cool yeah but. well we got to start cranking these out. a little bit faster. i know we've been pretty bad about it i. mean we did have like the holidays and. all that. happen but there's no excuse we're like. exactly two months behind. yeah and weren't we on the last one too. it might have been a little bit longer.

but uh. but but we're gonna do. the next gallagher next we've already. released his podcast. so now we'll brief that later but i. gotta wait until your interview. yeah with andrea is complete and then. we'll do that debrief so hopefully next. week. but um we'll crank it out let's talk. about what's coming. okay well. we've got a flannel being released.

does everybody hear that there are. vigilance elite flannels. they are finished all we're waiting for. is the product photo. i'm not gonna lie there's not very many. of them no. because we weren't sure if you guys. really want them or not. i mean we get a lot of emails but. yeah yeah well you know you just never. freaking email all day long but we've. fallen for this before. where but so i don't know i don't know. if they're gonna sell. they're gonna sell they might not.

they're hot they look good well if you. want a flannel. there's i can tell you this much there's. like almost 600 000 people. subscribed to the podcast to the show or. to vigilance lead channel. we didn't get 600 000 flannels so. uh i just we don't have that kind of. bankroll so if you want one. my suggestion would be go to the website. and sign up on the email list. because that's where we give all the. updates anything cool that's happening.

you got to be on the email list. so we got like you know. all kinds of good [ __ ] happening we do. you know. so and then we got i'm really excited. about the next like food item though i. know me. me too i don't eat them all first no. they're not coming to the house this. time. they're going right to fulfillment. center the s'more bites are going right. to the. yeah i didn't know if you were gonna. actually drop the name of them but.

[ __ ] might as well okay. s'more bites they are amazing. if you have an addictive personality. careful because they're that good yeah. i've heard they've. you know what we know somebody that. compared them to crack. yes they're that addictive yeah not that. i've. not that i've ever done crap i haven't. done crack either i've done a lot of. things but crack isn't one of them.

haven't done correct not knowingly. but uh but but i have done a lot of. s'more fights. [Applause]. they're really good i'm super excited. about those. yeah those are going to go like that for. sure. probably i don't know i don't think the. flannels are going to sell but the. i think the plan is now those are gone. yep i'm going to have to get a personal. stash and how about that hat you're. wearing. that's the new green one i love that one.
