He's "redacting" his invite? Did I hear that correctly?

It almost sounds like Crenshaw wanted this.

In regards to Shawn Ryan:

He's a sober, Evangelical* version of Joe Rogan. Both are decent conversationalists but bad interviewers. They both lack the ability to actually push back on a guest with whom they disagree. Rogan asks a few questions and says "wow", Ryan does the same and says "no shit".

I think Ryan is decent when he has military/LEO/FEDs on. He loses me when he has on weirdos like the chick who said non-verbal autistics have psychic powers. He's totally unequipped to conduct a confrontational interview with someone like Newsom or Biden.

*I don't know if Shawn identifies as Evangelical, but his (relatively recent) actions remind me of that.

I'm sure he has stated he is catholic? or was.

Crenshaw will not sign the "I wont sue clause" I think.

 

[Marauder06]

One typically does not "redact" a public invitation. One may, however, "retract" it. And I think that's what Sean Ryan meant. But that’s not what he said.

Redact: "the process of removing sensitive information from a document so that it may be distributed to a broader audience"

Retract: to draw back or withdraw



Pedantic: "someone overly concerned with minor details, rules, or showing off academic knowledge in a tiresome, nit-picking way, often making things boring or missing the bigger picture" (see also Marauder06)

I'm assuming Crenshaw doesn't want to talk about insider trading....

Jack Murphy wanted Chuck Ritter to sign a similar agreement before going on Jack's show to talk about how Jack wrongfully maligned Chuck, a Special Forces sergeant major who is a Purple Heart and Silver Star recipient.

Chuck wouldn't do it either.

I was confused. People are trying to say Ryan is now Sober, has he redacted all of his drinking in previous shows?

He's a new Christian (But he still curses like a Sailor)

Crenshaw is a perfect example of why a knee jerk reaction to vote for a vet is a bad idea. That post-WWII mentality needs to die. The world isn’t the same.

Goes along with the GWOT hero worshipping of SOF vets. Badasses are also flawed human beings.

Either way, I think it will go ahead. If Crenshaw pulls out it will only make people think what SR alleges is true.

I'm an hour into it rlght now. I don't often watch vet bro podcasts but this guy seems to embody the quiet professional. No bravado, just humble and thoughtful responses.

Fucking demonic

Fucking demonic

Parlatore's (Ryan's lawyer) response to the lawsuit is excellent. Basically it reads: Fuck you. You admitted to this, don't twist Shawn's words to hide your complicit behavior. Also, fuck off and eat a dick.

Anyone speak Arabic? Is that true what the imam was saying?

A current site member talking to a former site member about Afghanistan, Iraq, and more:
Podcast: The Spear – Ranger Missions in Iraq and Afghanistan - Modern War Institute

In this episode of The Spear, host Dr. Charlie Faint sits down with author, journalist, and former US Army Ranger Marty Skovlund to discuss his journey from a rural upbringing in South Dakota to the front lines of the War on Terror and ultimately into a career as a storyteller, author, and professional journalist. Skovlund reflects on the influences that led him to join the Army, which include family military service, a fascination with military history, and the events of 9/11, and how those motivations carried him into the 75th Ranger Regiment.
