GRP 188-An Inside Look At The Institute For The Study of War with Jennifer Cafarella

GRP 188-An Inside Look At The Institute For The Study of War with Jennifer Cafarella

In this podcast episode, Jennifer Cafarella, Director of Strategic Initiatives at the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), discusses her expertise in Syria and counter-ISIS work. The ISW focused on Syria. Over time they expanded their Russia program, recognizing Putin's intervention in Syria as part of his global strategy. ISW provides support to educate civilian leaders on military force usage. They also train and advise senior military commanders while fostering young national security talent. 


The podcast highlights the attempted coup by Progozhin, leader of the Wagner Group, and the group's uncertain future. The brutality associated with Wagner, such as disturbing videos from Syria and Ukraine, is discussed. Speculation arises on potential Russian defense and leadership changes due to the coup attempt. The ISW provides daily briefs and updates on the fighting in eastern Ukraine, which I think is the best publicly available information on the war.


Main Takeaways


  • Analyzing the War in Syria
  • Building ISW's Russia program
  • Open Source Intelligence Collection
  • Geospatial Intelligence Collection
  • Wagner Group

GRP 180-Intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings: My Conversation with Nick Smith The Founder Of Geo Owl

Army veteran and founder of Geo Owl, Nick Smith, discusses the growing importance of geospatial intelligence across various industries, including healthcare, farming, and elite intelligence operations. However, using geospatial intelligence also raises national security concerns, particularly regarding China's capacity, capability, and reach for stealing technology. Smith argues that economic warfare might be the actual version of World War Three, and cutting off access to the US market could lead to conflict with China. The podcast delves into the potential risks of allowing Chinese companies access to the US market and the need for strong leadership to address the issue and prevent future conflicts. 


We discussed various use cases for geospatial intelligence, including the war in Ukraine and the services provided by Geo Owl. Tune in.


Main Takeaways


  • Geospatial Intelligence
  • Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR)
  • The threat posed by China
  • Working for American Special Operations
  • Working for American Intelligence Agencies 
  • OSINT

GRP 179-Alone At Dawn: The Story of John Chapman and Airforce Combat Controllers With Dan Schilling

GRP 179-Alone At Dawn: The Story of John Chapman and Airforce Combat Controllers With Dan Schilling

Former Combat Controller and author Dan Schilling shares stories of the bravery and dedication of America's Special Operations forces, highlighting the relatively unknown community of Airforce Combat Controllers. These individuals are among the most versatile in Special Ops and have a unique dual role as both lethal individuals on the battlefield and humanitarian responders in times of crisis.


We discussed the story of Medal of Honor recipient John Chapman a Combat Controller who inserted with a small element of SEALs from DEVGRU into an enemy camp to retrieve SEAL Neil Roberts. Through a series of difficult circumstances, Chapman ended up alone on a mountaintop in Afghanistan, fighting for 40-plus minutes against two dozen enemy fighters. In this action, Chapman saved the lives of 23 Americans, and the entire battle was recorded by a CIA drone hovering above. The entire video is on youtube, narrated by Dan Schilling, and every American should watch it. 


Through Schilling's firsthand accounts and insight, listeners gain a greater appreciation for the sacrifices and dedication of these essential members of America's military community.


Main Takeaways


  • Airforce Combat Control
  • Army Special Forces
  • Commanding a Combat Control Unit
  • John Chapman
  • Medal of Honor

GRP 178-Those that know do, Those that understand teach: My conversation with Army Special Ops Vet Rick Hogg

GRP 178-Those that know do, Those that understand teach: My conversation with Army Special Ops Vet Rick Hogg

I sat down with Rick Hogg, a Special Operations combat veteran who served 29 years in the US Army and operates a training company called "War Hogg Tactical." Rick spent time in the infantry before assessing and being selected for Army Special Forces. Rick would deploy into combat 13 times working in various roles, including handling K-9s. His final deployments were to counter ISIS terrorists in Iraq.


Spending that much time in combat arms takes a mental and physical toll on a human being, and Rick advises current operators on dealing with some of these challenges. We discussed Master Sergeant Joe Andres, Rick's teammate, who was killed in action on December 24th, 2005, in Iraq, and once again, Rick gives incredible advice on how to deal with the loss of a loved one. We dived into running dogs in combat and how he and his teammates are alive today because of the skill of special operations K9s, particularly his dog Duco, who he retired from the Army. Rest in peace, Duco. 


Main Takeaways


  • 82nd Airborne
  • Special Forces
  • Dealing with loss
  • 13 combat deployments
  • Falling out of a helicopter in combat
  • K9s saving lives on the battlefield
  • Advice to active military

GRP 176-It is better to be on the move than being still: A Conversation with Sandra Eira A Sami Native At War In Ukraine 


Sandra Eira, a Norweigan Sami native and volunteer of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, is my guest for this week's podcast. She worked as a fisherman in the Barents Sea for ten years which is among the most dangerous professions in the world, before serving on the Sami Parliament in northern Norway. During her four years in the Parliament, she studied for a career as a health professional. 


After Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, she immediately traveled to Kyiv to join the fight. Upon arrival, her team was sent to Moshun to halt the Russian advance toward Kyiv. In the ensuing chaos, she was separated from her unit and believed them to be killed during the heavy fighting. This resulted in her being the only medic in a mass casualty situation. After successfully repelling the Russian advance, she reunited with her unit, and they traveled to the southern front. Her team consists of former American Special Operators giving them a wide range of skills and allowing them to rotate in and out of different battles. We discussed their roles, including time spent in Bakhmut, the difficulty of pausing your life to go to war, and much more. Tune in.

  • Working as a fisherman for ten years in the Barents Sea
  • Serving in the Sami Parliament for four years

GRP 148-The MARSOC 3: The story of three Raiders and their struggle with the military justice system

Joining me for this week’s podcast is a retired Marine Special Operations Task Force Commander Fred Galvin, and Army veteran, gold star wife, and current spouse to a MARSOC Raider Destiny Draher. On January 1st, 2019 Gunnery Sgt. Joshua Negron, Gunnery Sgt. Daniel Draher and Chief Petty Officer Eric Gilmet were assaulted by a drunk former Green Beret working as a civilian contractor in Erbil, Iraq during a night out.

One of the Marines threw a punch back knocking the contractor out. The entire incident is caught on camera.  The Marines took the contractor with them back to base while Eric Gilmet who is a Special Operations Independent Duty Corpsman treated him.

He ended up choking on his  vomit and unfortunately died four days later. The commanding General of MARSOC has completely alienated these Marines and they are not getting a fair shot at justice.

We discuss in full detail how the command isn’t concerned with finding out the truth and has already made up their minds about the case. Our three MARSOC Warriors need your support! Please contact your representatives and make them aware of this case.

Unsure of what to say? Here is a template that you can use to email or when you call your representatives.

Dear Representative,

As your constituent, I am requesting that you reach out to Congressmen Louie Gohmert’s office and the Justice For Warriors Caucus and support MARSOC warriors Danny Draher, Josh Negron, and Eric Gilmet.

These three MARSOC warriors have been wrongfully accused of “Manslaughter” and the Congressional Justice for Warriors Caucus is stepping in to stop this injustice. Please have your military staffer reach out to Congressmen Gohmert’s military staffer and act now to save these military hero’s.

Sincerely, [name]
