Pat Watkins is the best yet Tilt. Keep them coming. Bunch of badass Americans

Fantastic to hear Pat first hand. All of Tilts books are worth the read. Thank you Gents!

Cannot get enough of these men and their stories. Their recall of events is amazing. Legendary

Watkins has such a larger than life sense of humor despite his combat experience and everything he's been through.

PAT WATKINS PART 2??? I can listen to you guys tell stories all day! Thanks a million and get Pat back on for part 2 before my beers gets warm! Thanks again.

Can't thank all of you enough for not only bringing these stories to us, but also for doing what you did during your careers. Legends, heroes, mentors!

It’s amazing that these men were BOYS fighting the fight of their lives and there here telling the most hilarious gruesome stories of this horrible place. True American heroes at work. God bless and thank you for your heroic service. Cheer my boys, salute 🇺🇸

These men are true badasses

One of the many legends from SOG. These videos are so great, to be able to see person from the stories

Dont worry about the guys wandering tilt we love listening to the stories

It's funny. If you watch John Wayne and the boys in "The Green Berets", they were all playing heroes doing feats of derring-do and being courageous. But when you listen to the real-life stories from these MACV-SOG men, the real stories are a million times more courageous than the movies. What the real guys did is terrifying. Thank you for what you did for our country to all you MACV-SOG heroes! Cheers to all you brave gentlemen!

Let's get this man back on. He's got more to offer us. This is the best podcast I've had the pleasure of finding and listening to in quite awhile. Thanks for the product and for the experience. Great!

Out of all the sog guys these two have the funniest chemistry. Able to laugh in the face of death. American heroes.

I've heard the mans name but never heard him speak! That is why these episodes are so important!

These SOGcasts are very much appreciated.

Thank you for your service SOG warriors, and SOG warriors that made the ultimate sacrifice

Two outstanding Americans.

59:48 " . . . and he (Singlaub) told him where the war really was, and that Navy officer didn't want to hear it." Two things I love about Sgt. Major Pat Watkins, 1) his utter contempt for "shiny brass" and 2) the same contempt for that "peanut farmer" in the White House.

Man I love the real dialogue. Stories are always better with the authentic profanity to put you in the moment

Well done guys. Thank you for your service and for sharing your stories. God Bless you, our country and all of our fallen hero's 🇺🇸

I just finished listening to SOGCast 001 - SOGCast 023. Yes, it took a while. When I got home from Vietnam in ’71 we had to play war games and my group was attached with a group of Green Berets. You mentioned a night time practice jump with some guys landing in trees and someone breaking their leg. Was this jump somewhere in North Carolina and did you ever have Marines helping on the ground? If so, I was one of the Marines on the ground. I remember the loud crack of tree limbs and guys yelling in the dark. Our orders were to help with the parachutes if asked to do so and if anyone was hurt we were told not to touch them and just wait with them until the Corpsman got there. The guy that landed close to me had broken his leg. He asked me to move his leg that was twisted in the wrong direction. I told him I was not allowed to touch him if he was injured. He was not happy. Thanks,

Pat Watkins!?! Ive heard the stories of him flying with covey but this interview was all time!! I feel so grateful to have the opportunity to listen to these heroes talk about the old days. This is fantastic! Thank you for you service!

I'm ready for part 2 now. I keep looking every few days. C'mon Tilt, Let's go!!

At times it’s boys being boys reliving the worst of times having a good laughs in the worst conditions. That’s what true American HEROS are made of. This golden! Salute 🇺🇸

There's something weird about hearing these now seemingly gentle old men, who were once fierce young men, talk in this way - it's unsettling and strangely reassuring at the same time. We tend to think of young men in old wars as somehow quaint and different to us because their photographs look faded and their fashions and technologies look dated, but they're *exactly* the same as us. Time and ageing beguile us.

The best podcast I've ever seen, I'll put some shorts about it in my channel

Thank you for sharing your stories ! 🙏🏻🤗 when I grew up in the 60’s I was born in 62 , I was so afraid that I would have to go over there and fight in the war , I was raised by a single mom and 9 older sisters and didn’t understand what was going on

ALL of the sog cast, incluging Jocko sog interviews, NEED put in ONE place. Together.

These gentlemen are f ing badasses, while the protesters were marching these guys were kicking ass and taking names.

So glad there's a "part 2" coming. These stories are incredible, and Mr. Watkins gritty "don't give a fuck" attitude makes the episode even better.

This was good. Pat has so many stories to tell that one episode is not nearly enough. Thanks for bringing it to us.

Love SOG cast. Wish they would make a movie or some kind of series kind of like Band if Brothers.

He can tell war stories and be hilarious at the same time.

Man I've been waiting for this one! hopefully Lynn Black will be soon!

What an awesome interview! Mr. Watkins has a great sense of humor! I'm looking forward to part 2!

The dichotomy of the admiration for on screen heroes, and the off screen REAL heroes. Thanks for taking the time to share the history.

Outstanding interview!

Love you guys...thanks 🇺🇲😎🇺🇲

Just the best guys. I could listen to them all day. Thankyou 🙏🏻

More SOG stories?! Oh hell yes...

New drinking game..... every time Pat Watkins says "to make a long story short" do a shot! Thank you guys for another great episode and I look forward to the next one.

Totally ready for part 2 . If I had bought a ticket for hundred bucks to listen. It was worth every penny .

You guys are the best. Keep it up.

This was a great interview. Thank you guys for everything. Really.

I was a new E-3 at 7th SFG(A) when MSG Watkins got his DSC! I agree with COL Kirila, (These gentlemen are living national treasures)!

Fantastic episode!!!

Thank you for doing this podcast

Love these podcasts and stories

Great podcast. Thanks Pat and Tilt for everything.

I'm so glad that you are still with us tilt it had been so long since I've seen a sog cast come out I was starting to get worried brother

Thank you, men, for your amazing service and awesome cast. Love listening to the SOG stories. I live in Chicago area and am working on the story of a local man, MIA 1Lt Ronald Janousek. He was a Marine helicopter copilot, who on an extraction mission into Laos on August 8, 1969, his ship was shot down and crashed into a river. You mentioned Captain Anh. He was there on the day Ronald's ship was hit. Ronald's ship was upside down in 12 feet of water. Captain Ahn dropped his Kingbee down, under intense fire, pushed his landing gear wheel into the window of Ronald's Huey and flipped it over so he could see if anyone was in the cabin. 1Lt Ronald Janousek was never found, is still MIA. He was a 1962 grad of Mendel Catholic High School in Chicago. His hometown of Posen, Illnois named the street he grew up after him. Iti is incredible what he and all you incredible men did. God bless you.

For what it's worth Glover's studio set up looks and sounds the best of all Episodes, I bet I'm not the only one thinking this.

The one and only Pat Watkins. Deserves more decorations than he has. True blue American. This podcast is only a small part of his long military career

This Guy is Diamond !!! Serious life 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥷🏻🥷🏻🥷🏻🥷🏻

Need more of these

Wish these podcasts were longer like jocko style

I worked with a guy, who recently retired, that was over there during the war. His vague stories give absolutely no details (because he swore to secrecy) and I keep waiting to hear his name in one of these stories. I never asked but always listened to him talk about his service and even though it was fifty-some years ago, he stands by his oath to not speak about what he did and saw. If I ever do hear him named in a story, I'll be able to tell him and hopefully be able to show him the podcast

Spot on!🇺🇸👊🏻🇺🇸

Are you guys still going to do a part 2?? I love your show it's my favorite podcast. I think it's easily just as good as Jocko's, Shawn Ryan's, or even Rogan's Im surprised it doesn't have millions of views ... Please do more

Awesome absolutely awesome

Them Men of SOG are Exactly what American Warriors Must Be. Nothing Less. I hope we get this type podcast from the Phoenix Program guys.

Outstanding podcast

ALL of the men who served in SOG ARE HEROES

And for those non military/veteran types…I hope you all acknowledge, that these men wouldnt just talk this way and share these stories in front of every day civilians. They are able to open up and talk so casually and freely about these things bc they have shared these same horrific experiences together. They “get” each other. Same with me and my brethren who are vets of the GWOT. I wont talk about my stories with civilians bc they wont understand. But get me in a room with guys i served with or have been over there, and we can talk for hours…:even making light of seeing horrible things. Granted, what these men went through makes all of us GWOT guys look like pre-pubescent boys…. But im trying to convey the point that besides the non disclosure agreement they signed, it also probably took them decades to process all of to where they could openly share it. The flashbacks/nightmares they probably endured were horrible….still probably have some to this day. But its been so long, they’ve learned to manage it. Gentlemen, as a combat veteran myself, you all are men amongst men. I salute you and thank you for showing the public what true service, camaraderie and bravery looks like. I hate to say it, but today’s generation is greatly lacking it. For the military guys in my generation, you guys were our heroes and why we joined. So thank you. We wont ever come close to filling the boots you left behind.

Thank you Mike glove your a team leader and player at. The same time

Great Podcast. Really enjoyed it.

Starting in the middle of the story is somewhat confusing. Would love to hear Pat Watkins backstory and how he got to sog.

I love that Glover hosted them! 👏👏💪💪❤️

Come on SOG Cast 24!!!!😫 Dont leave us strap hangin’!!!!

I'd like to hear more about Charlie Beckwith and plei me and the team that was there and the MEDIC Herbert Forbes

Best one so far. Pat is a badass

Up there with the Frenchman interview

Another badass podcast, bravo Zulu!!!!!

Y’all should do a second show if possible.

SOGcast is my favorite of the Jocko Pod channel. But why the left ear right ear audio? Jockos episodes aren’t like this

It's very endearing that this veteran gives so much credit and says modern-day soldiers are so much better than they were back in the day. But in all honesty those guys were the true survivalists. Modern-day soldiers rely way too heavily on technology. As they should. But if you took all of that away I wonder how many of these guys would actually be able to use a compass with a map

Damn,what a cool dude!

I think having a NVA crawl up to Striker in the dark, touch his boot, and crawl back away was crazy.

You need to have Pope on your podcast for a SOG podcast

Mr. Meyers’ mic sounds one legged. Maybe change out the XLR cable…or it could be out of phase with the other or the HPF is set way too high….let me know if I could help boys

Hahahaha chargin Charlie was crying when he was shot in the butt😂😂😂it's crazy to think the stuff these gentlemen have witnessed

Funny guys make life easier to live. Great stories. Same flag pole stuffs they experienced happened later and I’m sure happening still today. Different generations same shit.

Crazy stories!

Are we ever going to get part 2? Its been months.

Motivasi dan inspirasi ❤❤👍

Still waiting for part 2,any idea when?

My uncle was 48th joker ahc platoon he flew Mr John and there platoons across the fence if they left out of ccn in 68 and 69 man that is just astounding stuff unreal at the stories my uncle was bill chapman if you can remember him

Beckwith wasn’t shot at Plié Me nor any place in the Ia Drang. Several months later I think at An Loc.

Imagine hearing it from the other side 👀

The Best

“Shit for hot,” is one of my new favorite comments hahahaha. We always said “they’re shit hot” during my time in the Army, but Pat’s version is better/funnier lol

Legend

Fantastic

German tankers called Sherman tanks Tommy Cookers. Because one or two AT rounds would cook the entire crew.

53:54 It's ok to edit these things out.

Right on , I’m 20 mins into the pod, just wanna say u look like a pro podcasted already Tilt!!! Pat was the first sog pod I saw , u two with dick “dynamite” Thompson would be an epic podcast!!

I’m a veteran but a novice on what you guys are talking about. If you had HALO qualifications back then, why would that not be a good idea for insertion? Assuming you could still have the air coverage you needed in case of contact.

Stryker are you going to read the book or talk to him? Lol

Theee pat watkins?

100% badasses
