I'm Clint Emerson and welcome to season two of Can You Survive this podcast, where the interview is just as dangerous as the scenarios I put my guests through.

From hostage situations to natural disasters, car jackings, active shooters, and more,

if you're looking for the skills necessary to survive these situations, then this is the show for

you.

Thanks for listening, all seven of you.

That's awesome.

Today, I've got action sport doer, American flag hoister, former U.S. Navy seal author, host of Frogman Friday,

and the founder of Sons of the Flag and the Bird's Eye View Project. I have Ryan Birdman Parrot. How you doing, buddy? I'm super excited to be here, man. Thank you for having me. Yeah, no problem. You're a local guy, you're in the studio, and I've had this current debate going for a while now on what to call this thing. What would you call it? Would you call it a cave, a studio, a garage, a shop?

A little bit everything. Yeah. Multiversal. Yeah, this is sick. Yeah, I'm trying to figure out what to actually

The layer. Hey, we're at layer. We're at the layer. We're at the cave. We're at the man place.

So, dude, it's good to be here. You're local. We never see each other. You're good about hitting me up. I'm horrible about responding. But, you know, I don't have any excuses other than

I tend to ignore my phone most of the time because I hate it. What about you? Are you kind of like

a fuck technology person?

Absolutely. I mean, that's the only way we run today, right? Just like, I'm going to put that off for a while.

And, you know, we've been busy. Everybody's getting busy and there's so much opportunity out there right now. so I gotta seek it. Right. Yeah, I'm with you. It's like one thing after another and before you know it, the year's gone by and you're putting up Christmas up Christmas lights taking them down then back into the summer and you're trying to take clothes off

because you can't get cool enough and then you're right back to putting a bunch of clothes on

to try and stay warm it's just a cycle just keeps going it's fucking stupid um okay so as usual we're

going to start with your rapid fire I hope this is fun for you but, but we'll find out. Are you ready? I'm ready. All right, here we go. Throwing star or blow gun? Throwing star. Throwing star. Why? Cooler. Yeah, throwing star is cooler. I mean, ninjas are cool. Everybody grew up with throwing stars. Right. Every kid wanted a throwing star.

And where are they now? Like, is it illegal or something? I was not allowed to be an injure. I have no idea. Yeah. I've actually Googling them from time of time. And I got some really cool custom ones. I don't know where they're at that some guy made. But you just can't find them anymore. My wife Googled them not too long ago because she wants them.

My wife's from Russia.

So that's not fucking happening yeah it's dangerous

especially right now what does she think of Putin and his decisions she doesn't she voted for
