I'm new to the order. I've been binge watching podcast. This was my favorite so far.

Dave Grossman wrote in "On Combat" that while the sheepdog loves the sheep, the sheep fear the sheepdog. This is because the sheepdog looks dangerous, like the wolf, and is a constant reminder to the sheep of the dangers that exist in the world, which violates that bubble of safety within which the sheep spend most of their lives. You see this behavior exhibited when people advocate against armed security at their kids' school, because schools are supposed to be "safe."

I'm praying for you guys and all your loved ones...I hate evil ...let me know how I can help you guys make a difference in the world around us...I've got a lot to say and im always open to hearing from my elders things which are edifying to my spirit as a disciple of Jesus Christ, a man, and a soldier in the army of the Lord. I'm proud to be an American.

The great Tim Kennedy

Tim's as real of a dude as real can be. And a Warrior/Scholar.

Tim is a treasure. Really would like to get some range time with him. A real Great American.

Confidence comes from demonstrated ability

Love this episode!

Thank you Tim!

“We do not rise to the occasion we fall to the level of our training” - not me

great interview

Loved it.

We can be sheepdogs or be a productive kind of sheep. Definitely don't be the wolf nor the mindless sheep. Tim Kennedy's just inspiring. Also there's a saying "anyone who says they have no fear is either a liar or is a Gurkha". Do they know who the Gurkhas are?

Can you maybe bring the Podcast to Spotify?

Legend....takes way more years to make a Green Beret or Delta operator than Seal. Army the quiet professionals

Col (Ret)Grossman is an awesome teacher

3:19 start

Hi Gents. There are 5 people groups. 1. Sheep 2. Sheepdog 3. Wolf 4. Goats - these are losers who hang with both the sheep and the wolf. 5. Shepherds - spiritual or moral leaders who carry the wisdom and the authority above all. They can kill a wolf and issue punishment to the sheep and sheepdog. I’m working on this article to help explain this. Great work. Love this talk.

Is it more likely that a sheep will sometimes act like a sheep dog, or is it the other way around?

Tim Kennedy mixes up the roles a little in the intro explaining the sheep, wolf and sheepdog.

I recommend the book : Mindfulness Made Simple by Elisha Goldstein

I've had moments in similar situations where I've jumped in front of danger, scared but with this unexplainable courage and focus and the other with paralysing fear. Me, my brothers, cousins and a bunch of friends went to the beach, one of the guys in our group which I'll admit was acting like an idiot. A bunch of other guys confronted our guy and punked him, we weren't looking for trouble but the guys weren't satisfied with their victory so they decided to challenge one of my cousins. One guy was putting his hand to his belt suggesting he had a gun, my cousin put his hands up saying he didn't want any problems but the guy clocked my cousin I immediately rush the guy acting like he's got a gun, (turns out he didn't) to make a long story short a massive brawl erupts, we're out numbered 2 to 1 but we beat them...bad. A similar story this time a fair one on one brawl happens and I'm scared stiff. I eventually react and defend but not before our group almost got the shit kicked out of us. I beat myself up over this one alot and this was over 15 years ago.

The sheep are afraid and don't understand the sheepdog when the wolf is not seen.

He mixed up sheep and wolves more times than he got it right..

i tried to look up colonia dignodad and wasn't able to find anything but a netflix show. what exactly was he talking about and where can i look it up?

Kelpy Cross Border Collie or Huntaway or Pirenees mountian dog they all are very clever

Get it together Tim you keep mixing up wolves and sheep lol

Very true--but here is also the path of the Sheepdog. Have you ever been in the position where you are doing the right thing and everyone else isn't? That's being a Sheepdog. What is hard for the Sheepdog is that the path it takes is usually where one walks alone. This was this week's topic for my own subscribers on the almighty YT but it fits here too. The Sheepdog will suffer. Here is how you alleviate that lonesome walk of doing right. You look at the other dogs in the kennel. Eliminate the ones that don't know what they are talking about. That's 50% gone. Then the ones who are afraid to hunt. Another 25% gone. Then the ones who hunt but only for themselves--another 20% gone. The 5% left are the Sheepdogs. They aren't allowed near the kennel because the other dogs start snarling and barking. Why? Because the Sheepdog makes 50% look unintelligent, 25% look cowardly and 20% selfish. So the Sheepdog is condemned to walk the ridgeline alone. But the key to inner peace which took me 15 years to realize in the corrupt healthcare field I practice in is this: realize you can't make a regular dog into a Sheepdog. You don't get angry, you treat them with indifference. And you will see that other Sheepdogs will periodically pass you on other ridgelines. And others will gravitate toward you as well--because people would rather you hate them then not acknowledge them at all. And some will possibly get a little better. Hope this helps someone out there---Charles

When was this recirded bc i thought tim had retired from mma

The real captain America

Hi my name is Lorraine I don't know how I got this sweater I for got how I got it but if someone lost a sheepdog sweater I have it write me back please I will be happy to give it to who it belongs to

So in a church sermon a few weeks ago the Lead Pastor said that as men were supposed to walk up front. Like literally in front of our families. Leading the way and such. I've always walked in the rear for several reasons one being that I can keep track of my kids. Another being that ambushes happen from the rear or sides. I just don't like that I can't see my family behind me. That's your thoughts on this?

14, 18, 20% body fat? Those are healthy numbers for regular active men. Especially if your goal is to build muscle. Virtually impossible to pack on mass while being sub 10% body fat

The wolf

I’m not a sheepdog. Truthfully, I’m a wolf 🐺 in my community.

🔫90% of the time your not gonna know who is who...yes of course you can pick up some clues from there stickers on cars and who may have gun....Good job Kennedy 🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫

Wolves tore down the towers and wolves reported it. A sheepdog has to know his enemy.

Can a wolf ever become a sheepdog

Don't forget....sheep can be useful too when lead by the right leader. "I am not afraid of an army of lions led by a sheep; I am afraid of an army of sheep led by a lion." -Alexander the Great

If you go and do all these good things, and your name is not written in the Lambs book of life- If you are not born again, it will be the lake of fire for eternity- Utter torment for all eternity without rest from the lake of fire. Jesus is King. God's people, the Christains, must repent of the all murders of innocent people this nation commited- Murder like abortion. Killing someone isn't always murder. But if you going to smoke someone, it must be justified. So, the question is how do you over come the judgements of God. When the Lord's hand comes to correct you? It's through repentance. Confession of sin. And then to follow His Word -To obey his Word. He says if you love Me, you will obey Me.

God bless you and your family and friends forever in Jesus name Jesus Christ is the Lord 🙏❤️😇 One Lord, one faith, one baptism Acts 2:38 Jesus Christ, same yesterday, today, and forever.

Jesus is a sheep. He is the Lamb of God, who hung on the cross for the sin of the world. Jesus is also a Lion. The Lion of Juda. In His last trip here, He was a sheep. When He comes back, He will be the Lion. And He'll be tearing it up. So, we as Christains, I believe,, must learn to flash back and forth from a sheep to a lion in an instant. This being guided by the Holy Spirit! That's what I believe.

You don't become a sheepdog in my opinion You're almost born with it, or attain that mentality at a young age!

The sheep are no longer worth protecting You go help someone hurt or kill the bad guy,you go to jail, I will walk past a woman being raped, I won’t get involved because I’m not going to jail,for a stranger. Change the law,this is hero sandwich B/S Yeah like the hero sandwich fire fighter that stopped a robbery and got shot and killed by the bad guys girlfriend, that’s you Right!

You can have your torn hamstring, your TBI, your tinnitus, your lead dust inhalation, your ripped bicep tendon and your high-level OCD and compulsions. Those are your demons.. It's totally easy to avoid any confrontation in a first world country and the chance you're going to need all of this 'awareness' is extremely small. Just say out of bars, don't drink and drive and mind your own business. FWIW

Sheepdogs are civilians who act heroically when the occasion arises. A true sheepdog lives among the sheep and is not feared or resented by the sheep. Government agents, including law enforcement, are wolves who prey upon the sheep as surely as the common thief. They are two packs of wolves fighting over the same territory. Just because the government wolf operates under the color of law and occasionally pretends to be a sheepdog doesn't make it any less a wolf.

Looking at a still frame picture for 42 minutes sucks ..............just the facts........

It's called Shepard, not sheepdog. That's as same as calling a manuver a bullshit.

"Sheepdog"... Please. Good training, but that "sheepdog" phrase is so corny.

how to become a full idiot rather

This guy's hectoring way of talking is very annoying. It is like a stressed-out late night commercial. Can't he just talk in a normal way?
