This is Jocco Podcast number 499 with Echo Charles and me, Janko Willink.

Good evening, Echo.

Good evening.

So I see a lot of people freaking out about things on a kind of regular basis.

People reacting, people overreacting, even in some cases, panicking based on what they hear, what they see, what they

think, the way things are presented to them. And that's not good. By the way, in combat,

that's a disaster. In combat, that's a disaster. If you're freaking out when something happens, it's a disaster.

But it's not just a disaster in combat.

It will cause problems in business and it'll cause problems in your life too.

One of the things that you have when you have a military radio, and they don't have them anymore now have a digital version of it

but have you ever heard of a squelch button before yes so yeah yeah so squelch button on the old

radios that we used to have burking that there was a squelch knob and you would turn that squelch

knob to get rid of the white noise like white a white noise is a lower level signal that's coming through the air at all times.

And you don't want to hear that white noise.

You don't want that in your air.

So you turn that squelch enough so that it blocks any of that lower level noise.

You don't hear it anymore.

But then when someone else on that same radio frequency keys up their radio, it breaks

through and you can hear what their communication is.

So that's what you do.

You adjust it so that you can't hear the white noise because the white noise doesn't

mean anything.
