This is Jocco podcast number 261 with Echo Charles and me, Jocco Willink. Good evening, echo.

Good evening.

Being in the teams is the best job in the world.

Probably heard me say that before, the best job in the world.

Why do I say that?

Well, first of all, the job itself, which consists of shooting machine guns, jumping out of airplanes,

blowing things up, scuba diving, running around in the woods, it's just a freaking awesome job.

So you got that.

On top of that, you got this mission, the mission that you're focused on, you're on a mission to protect America, to protect democracy, to protect freedom, to protect people.

And in order to do that, kill bad guys.

Because you're supposed to do all that protecting in order to do all that protecting, you got to kill bad guys, which has a kid and really as a man for that matter.

That's what me and my friends always wanted to do.

And I'm sorry if that doesn't sit right with you.

Or if you think I'm some kind of a monster because of it, but that's the reality.

So that's another reason why the job is awesome.

But the last thing and certainly not the least thing, in fact, the best thing about the job by far is the boys.

The boys, the guys you get to work with, they're awesome.

And contrary to popular belief, there's no cookie cutter format that represents a guy in this healteams.

The guys coming all shapes and sizes, they come from all different backgrounds.

And it should be noted that not all of them are good guys.

There are some knuckleheads for sure.

There's some ego maniacs.
