Welcome to Mic Drop. The podcast where relevancy is irrelevant and we don't give a shit about your feelings.

The saying that day's work is never done could not be true or growing up and living in Iraq.

You had to work hard to survive, but looking back at all the good times and the bad, I'm not sure I'd change one minute of it.

All of it shaped me and made me who I am today. I've learned to appreciate life and I'm grateful for what God has given me.

As I reflect on my family, my friends, everyone who I lost in combat, the terrorists I fought and everything I endured.

These unique experiences made me into something someone who would fight evil on any soil.

I have been called a terrorist whisperer.

According to the dictionary to call oneself a whisperer, you need to be able to excel at calming or training hard to manage people or animals using non-coercive methods based on an understanding of the animals or persons natural instincts.

I was called a terrorist whisperer by people I worked with and helped when their family member or child had been kidnapped.

In my heart, I wanted to help because I didn't want to see another person die for no reason at the hands of the terrorists.

But, after my story, I will let you decide.

A terrorist is someone who operates behind a curtain to scare others and gain power through fear and intimidation.

I would go behind the curtain, understand what their motive was, find out their identity, family tribe, and their greatest weakness.

Many of these terrorists are promise rewards if they carry out evil actions. I find nothing rewarding in taking someone's life.

Life is wonderful, precious, and meaningful. To me, if you take an innocent life, you're nothing more than a coward.

Ladies and gentlemen, as always, it's a both distinct honor and pleasure to welcome my next podcast guest.

He is the youngest sergeant major ever in the Iraqi army. He's both a warrior and a patriot for both the Iraq and US countries.

He's responsible for saving countless American lives during Operation Iraqi Freedom. He is a certified terrorist whisperer.

And no matter how bad you thought your fucking childhood was, he will make you feel like Walt Disney was your dad and you grew up in the magic fucking kingdom.

Please welcome Hamidi Jaseem.

Thank you. It's an honor being here.

Well, it's a pleasure having here. One really interesting thing. I had one of your brothers and comrades Johnny Walker on a few months ago.
