The Rooftop Podcast

The train derailment and chemical spill in East Palestine, Ohio has forever changed the lives of the people in that sleepy little town. But, the final outcome of what happens and how this town recovers, and our nation responds to it is yet to be determined. One thing is certain, as is often the case in large events, the story of the mass media vs the stories being told at the local level are not the same. And there are many stories from East Palestine that you and I are not hearing…and for the good of that town, and the nation, need to be heard. We start today and introduce the East Palestine Series. This episode is a scene-setter to bring in the important local voices so that we can get their stories into the mix and learn the deep leadership lessons they are so generously offering us. Join Rooftop Nation!     Website: https://www.rooftopleadership.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMannAuthorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottmannauthorLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rooftop-leadershipTwitter: https://twitter.com/RooftopLeaderYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYOQ7CDJ6uSaGvmfxYC_skQ

Politics is a peculiar animal, and that’s no exception when it comes to the abandonment of our Afghan allies, following the collapse of Kabul in mid August 2021. Almost a year and a half after those terrible events, the House Foreign Affairs Committee is finally holding a public hearing on March 8, at 10 AM ET about this foreign policy nightmare and what needs to be done. Now is the time for veterans and other volunteers to be heard. Join me on this podcast episode on how we can make that happen. I'll see you on the Rooftop, Scott   Join Rooftop Nation!     Website: https://www.rooftopleadership.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMannAuthorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottmannauthorLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rooftop-leadershipTwitter: https://twitter.com/RooftopLeaderYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYOQ7CDJ6uSaGvmfxYC_skQ

In the fast-paced arena of Operation Pineapple Express and Last Out - Elegy of a Green Beret, people often ask me about the origins of Rooftop Leadership.

This week on the #RooftopPodcast I'm overcoming my own resistance. A lot of us have suffered over the last few years - even more so after the withdrawal from Afghanistan. We have to get back up no matter how bad the blow was that caused us to stumble or fall. We have to get back up, stay engaged, and make an impact in spite of resistance. I hope you'll listen in on this raw episode to not only help yourself get back up but also the people around you. Join Rooftop Nation! Website: https://www.rooftopleadership.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMannAuthor Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottmannauthor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rooftop-leadership Twitter: https://twitter.com/RooftopLeader Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYOQ7CDJ6uSaGvmfxYC_skQ

Did we learn anything from 9-11-2001? More importantly, did we learn anything from the events leading up to 9-11-2001?For months, prior to the attacks, the leader of the Afghan Resistance Movement, Ahmad Shah Massoud tried over and over again to warn the U.S. and the West of an impending attack by al Qa’ida. His warnings were ignored as he continued his fight against them and the Taliban with almost no support from the U.S.Just days before the worst attack on our homeland, Massoud was killed by suicide bombers dispatched by bin Laden. AQ knew we would come to Massoud after the attack attempting to partner since we had no other allies in the country.Today, just a year and half after the botched Afghan Withdrawal, over 27 violent extremist organizations have flooded back into the country, training on the former Coalition Bases, under the tolerant protection of the Taliban, and in flagrant violation of the International Doha Agreement.Ahmad Massoud, the son of the Lion of the Panshir, continues the fight. For the first time he appears on a public broadcast with a U.S. elected official, Green Beret Congressman Mike Waltz. They are joined by the Afghan-American, former Army NCO - Legend - who has returned to Afghanistan multiple times to help evacuate at-risk Afghans and American Citizens.The topics in this podcast will blow your mind. What’s happening in that terrorist playground is beyond the pale.Will we learn from our past? Do we even care? Join us and decide for yourself.As the wise Yogi Bera exclaimed, "It’s Deja Vu all over again.  Join Rooftop Nation!Website: https://www.rooftopleadership.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RooftopLeadershipInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/rooftop_leadershipLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rooftop-leadershipTwitter: https://twitter.com/RooftopLeaderYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYOQ7CDJ6uSaGvmfxYC_skQ
