I understand why Navy SEALs have become popularized in media because you're allowed to talk about them. Right. Where you're not really allowed to talk about Delta. Right. But anybody who really is deep into that culture of military and who served in uniform, we all know like Delta is a whole different caliber. And then what's the top? And then I would say kind of adjacent to Delta becomes your CIA paramilitary. Wow.

Because CIA has its own paramilitary organization that pools the best seals, the best green berets, the best Delta Rangers. the best Marine Force recon, and then, again, trains them up to a CIA intelligence standard while also maintaining their Tier 1 or upper-level echelon military special operations training. Okay. So for us, thick-headed people out there, basically they're badass mothers. They can do wet work. They're fully trained to go into any part of the world. They can pick up your body. They can fuck up your day and they can pick up your mind. Yes. Whereas your Navy SEAL typically can only really pick up your day.

day and fuck up your body. And if, I mean, I honestly, I know I'm going to piss a lot of seals off because there are a lot of seals. Right. Just think about that, right? There's like six different teams. All of them have hundreds of different seals. Like, there's a lot of seals out there.

And they're, they're, when you talk to them, if you've talked to them, if you haven't talked to them, you should 100% invite them on your show. It doesn't take long talking to a seal before you realize that they are just a highly trained human weapon. Right. There's not always, there's not a lot of depth. to them. But when you get to like a green beret or a delta trained operative, you've, like, you're talking to a smart person. Right. So scary because you realize for as smart and as kind as they

seem, they're also lethal. Right. And that's, you start to get a, a humbling understanding of why we are the best most powerful military in the world. And so you've got the intelligence of the central intelligence agency and the physical capability of a Delta force. Tier 1 operator. Right. Exactly. Right. And to answer your question, your original question was like, you know, when an extraction

happens, when an operation happens, how does it work? The formal term that we use is some, it's a joint team or a joint military operation, sometimes a joint strategic operation. But the word joint is the key word there. And it means that you bring in experts in multiple different disciplines. And you use all of those experts simultaneously in an operation to master air land and sea. Right. And then the fourth area is intelligence, right?

So, air land and sea and intelligence basically makes for a fulsome joint task force that would essentially make it so that you would have an intel operative who can keep up with the seals, like a paramilitary person, embedded with a Navy SEAL team that's executing an operation that's been fully built and planned by intelligence operators with airborne ISR, which is your surveillance and recon resources, and then some sort of littoral escape, which is a sea-based. or river-based escape strategy, right? Are you one of those media strategy people clicking through slides, scrolling spreadsheets? Yes? Good. This is for you. Because on Spotify, there's an audience that's different.
