But Drago's journey did not end there. He delves into his harrowing yet hopeful transition from Poland to the heart of America. Facing insurmountable adversities in his homeland, from frequent abductions to grueling interrogations by government agents, his indomitable spirit sought refuge in the land of opportunity and freedom. He warmly recalls his time in a German refugee center, his aspiration for sunnier horizons, and his fondness for Elvis Presley's Memphis, Tennessee. With merely a bag of clothes and unparalleled grit, Drago embarked on a new life in the US. This included becoming a skilled Mercedes mechanic, a skydiving instructor, and eventually, against all odds, a decorated US Navy SEAL.
Highlighting the intervention of Pope John Paul II and his influential role in Poland, Drago offers viewers a profound first-hand perspective of life under socialism and the immeasurable sacrifices individuals made in pursuit of truth and freedom.
Plus, reflections on the Global War on Terror and why war requires MONSTERS.
This isn't merely a coffee talk. It's a tale of resilience, the essence of the human spirit, and an unyielding quest for freedom.

Get Drago's book here: a.co/d/fSiJJyY !!!

The story of the poor underwater welding student who wound up in buds is fucking amazing
-
I wish all Americans had a heart like Drago. What a great American!
-
10th times I listened to this. I listened to this episode on my drive to the base. There were a lot of things he said that had me tears. I am an immigrant myself and now 17 years in the military. America changed my life. I owe a lot to America and it is sad hearing American born citizens who hated America. If only they had a chance to learn it the hard way. They would feel blessed knowing they grew up in America.
-
The underwater welding guy just made me crack up. Holy shit 😄
-
Proud he was born in my country - Poland. Great American, and Polish oppositionist in the communist era.
-
Drago is exactly the kind of American we desperately need.
-
Dudes a SPECIMEN for a 63 year old.

My family is from next door, Lithuania, and my grandpa was a political prisoner in a Soviet gulag. My parents came to the US as political refugees in January 1986. Stories like Drago’s aren’t isolated. Many of our families suffered behind the Iron Curtain. Great episode!
-
Greetings from Poland 💪🇵🇱🏆🇺🇲
-
Ole buddy showing up for Buds thinking he was about to experience underwater welding training was GD hilarious! My sides hurt I was crying laughing so damn hard. WOW
-
Drago reminds me why my ancestors, and everyone else came to America. It's up to EACH one of us to uphold this freedom and individual rights we've taken for granted for so long. If we forget this, we will lose it in the blink of an eye
-
Excellent episode. Drago – jesteś wielki. Jeżeli będziesz w okolicach Chicago, chętnie postawie ci browara albo i 10.
-
Drago is an awesome dude. Great American.
-
Tacy są prawdziwi Polacy. Nigdy nie zapominają o pomocy i zawsze sie odwdzięcza. Obraz Polaka pijaka został wykreowany przez władze sowieckie. Uważam że ameryka z lat 60,70 dużo zawdzięcza Polakom, tak samo Polacy duzo zawdzięczają USA. Bóg, Honor, Ojczyzna
-
The underwater welder story needa to be a seconday plot line in the next seal movie or tv show. Imagine 12 episodes of this poor dude and his auffering just to get the underwater welding training.😂
-
What a great American. I was up on Drago long time ago. We need a million Drago's in the United States right now.
-
The handshake at the end was awesome haha! Drago looks like he's got a devon laratt grip. Also the underwater welding story was just the best lol
-
This man could parallel park a train!!

We gave the Americans Kosciuszko, Pulawski and Drago. Americans gave us Captain Merian Caldwell Cooper,Edward Corsi, Elliot Chess,Cedrick Fauntleroy and Edmund Pike Graves. Glory to the all American pilots who defended Poland in 1920.
