Jocko Willink is a retired United States Navy officer in SEAL Team 3, an author and a podcaster.

Finding discipline in the modern world is hard. A hyper convenient existence rarely encourages radical responsibility or extreme ownership. Thankfully Jocko has spent an entire life learning how to love discomfort, and also teaching others how to love it too. If discipline equals freedom then Jocko must be one of the freest men on the planet.

Expect to learn what Jocko thinks about the Detroit self-defence guy, why discipline always beats motivation, the similarities between elite special forces and elite BJJ athletes, Jocko's opinion on Jordan Peterson, how to get over an ex, whether he regrets being famous after working in the shadows for so long, how he used a Jim Carrey impression to chat up his wife, whether he wants to try psychedelics and much more...

  • @hubermanlab
    A gem of a conversation. Thank you gentleman for recording this for all to hear and learn.
  • @laray-mv2ye
    "Everyday you don't do work you're going backwards." The best line in the whole podcast. Jocko has a way of cutting right to the point -- he's a leadership surgeon!
  • @d4tis
    Jocko, by his own admission, is not always easy to interview. This was fantastic. Great work Chris, well done
  • Dude , jocko saying “I agree” after the story about Zeno being very succinct in his daily speech made me laugh my ass off
  • Jocko's take on bullying reminds me of my granddad, back when I was bullied by kids 6 years older than I, in neighbourhood, he trained me and even after that I was a scrawny 9 year old and wasnt up for it, then he told me that its not just about winning or loosing the fight, but make it expensive for the opponent to ever come at you, instil fear they will not dare to come at you ever again like they used to, and well I was beaten to crap there were 2 of them, but they received so much damage, they and the entire neighbourhood respected me.
  • @random0345
    The guest having such nice sound quality in the in person interviews compared to the online interviews makes it so much nicer and more relaxing to listen to
  • Jocko willink is a very valuable man. We need men like him in more positions of power. Politics especially. Men that represents true discipline and have real experience in war and violence. The perfect man to lead negotiations with other countries.
  • @aguiacomaguia
    This is a high quality podcast. Lighting, sound quality and the camera changing is just the best that I’ve seen on YouTube. You were very well prepared to talk to Jocko. Thanks man, I appreciate the work that you’ve done! 👊🏽
  • @JINZY_BOY
    This conversation has zero fat on it. No words spoken that weren't purposeful. Love it.
  • @sxrptz5798
    1:00-1:08 was beyond needed. Jocko never fails to give you the shit you need to hear when you need to hear it. “Walk away don’t look back” “remember but don’t dwell” thank you
  • @krushtyy
    listening to jocko interpret love island as a tactical operation is the most jocko thing ive ever heard
  • @stinny
    A doubly long podcast. Jocko as the guest. It's gonna be a great day.
  • Chris man. Excellent podcast. A high bar to clear for a man with a very high bar to start with. I relate to you more with each podcast. Quick story: I grew up in a bad situation and was poorly socialized and maybe a little autistic. I got bullied more than anyone should, but my dad put me in a taekwondo class. Kinda useless, but got me interested. Because now, I could defend myself from grade school bullies, kinda. Fast forward to high school. I had decided to study kickboxing and judo. Seemed like a good overall combination. Turns out it is. I went to high school in the 90's and I was the only person with a laptop. You see, I was a computer nerd publicly when that was not cool. Got me rigorously bullied. But by high school, I had a reputation. I wasn't very big (5'10'' 185lbs), but I know how to win a fight. Bullies still had the gall to fight me, but they had to work together to stand a chance. Still, I had been lifting progressively heavier weights since I was small (5 years old, started with 5 pounds) so I was immensely strong. That carries over into my young adulthood. Because I am strong, I typically worked in construction (framing, flooring) and also as a mechanic. Now 40, I am struggling to deal with the myriad injuries I've collected over my career. Yet, I have made it here so I will make it further. My biggest troubles are existential (obviously), and managing my pain and energy levels. Heh, that got long quick. I said all that in order to say this: You have reignited a fire within me. Reminded me that who I used to be is still who I essentially am. Older and more tired for sure, but I am still the only hero in my story. A rugged fighter who will push with all my strength until there is no more. Even though I know that day will come, it is not today. Know that you are a profound inspiration to me and that I really appreciate what you do. Thanks for reading. -Alex
  • No matter how you feel, Just get up and do what your supposed to do! Thats it.
  • @BrianDeCosta
    I hope people don't overlook what Jocko said at 17:30 ..what a legend. When most people run away, dudes like Jocko run towards. Taking notes
  • @theblur34517
    “Wage war on your weakness” sounds like the line right before a breakdown in a metal song.
  • @piyei
    Imagine you are stealing something and Jocko comes out the door…
  • @bbernal18_
    It’s always astounding to see Jocko Willink in color. It’s as if he lives among us in todays time
