When Ret. Master Sergeant Darrell Utt set his sights on joining the legendary Green Berets, he could never have anticipated the journey that would take him to the heart of Baghdad during one of the deadliest periods of the war in Iraq. Known for his tactical acumen and strategic thinking, Utt's leadership at 10th Special Forces Group was pivotal during his '06-'07 deployments. Over the course of his ten combat deployments, Utt earned five Bronze Star Medals, one with valor for heroism in Baghdad (2006), and the Larry Thorne Award for best operational detachment. In his hard-hitting memoir, 'Grit to Glory: A Green Beret's Journey from West Virginia to the Streets of Baghdad' Utt revisits his journey through the treacherous streets of Baghdad during his 2006 rotation as the team sergeant of ODA 043 - recounting eight months of brutal unconventional warfare and revealing the raw realities of combat.

Ken Behr is a professional drug smuggler. Grass, snow, smack, dope - he's got it all, or at least he did in the 1970's, back when he was flying product by the gross from Colombia to South Florida on a rickety pondhopper into makeshift runways. Back then Ken had no idea that the war on drugs was about to explode - and that Ronald Reagan's crackdown on trafficking would lead to a swift rise in prices for Ken's private operation. But all that glitters isn't always gold, and after Ken got busted by the DEA, he cut a deal to work two years as an undercover agent to avoid a 55-year prison sentence. Since then, Ken's wised up in more ways than one - nowadays he's settled down a bit, though he did have a brief spin as an open wheel race car driver, along with having penned a memoir of his travels called 'One Step Over the Line: Confessions of a Marijuana Mercenary.' It's a fascinating dive deep into the world of drug smuggling, judicial manipulation, social engineering, and the longest war in U.S. history - the War on Drugs. Subscribe to the Mike Drop Patreon Page to see Ad-Free Episodes Early + Bonus Content at https://www.patreon.com/mikedrop ----------Support Ken Behr - Get Your Copy of Ken's Book 'One Step Over the Line: Confessions of a Marijuana Mercenary' at https://onestepovertheline.comWebsite: https://onestepovertheline.comWebsite: https://1stepover.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@OneStepOverTheLine_KenBehr----------TEAM DOG FOOD, TREATS & SUPPLEMENTSBe Your Dog’s Hero: Veteran-owned by a former Navy SEAL and Special Operations K9 Trainer, Team Dog provides a complete diet of science-backed premium dog food, treats, and supplements to optimize your dog’s health, forged from rigorous standards and real-world expertise.https://www.teamdog.shop TEAM DOG ONLINE TRAININGMike Ritland – a former Navy SEAL & Special Operations K9 trainer – shares his simple and effective dog training program to build trust and control with your dog. Based on Mike’s bestselling book “Team Dog, Train the Navy SEAL Way”, join tens of thousands of families that successfully trained their way to a better dog. https://www.teamdog.pet SHOP ALL THE MIKE RITLAND BRANDS Get all your Mike Ritland branded gear - Mike Drop | Trikos | Team Doghttps://shop.mikeritland.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Josh Smith is a Master Bladesmith that forges custom museum-quality knives using exotic handle materials and precious metals. He's also the President of Montana Knife Company, a shop he founded to focus on building high-quality, well-built custom knives at an affordable price. A fifth-generation son of Montana, Josh started making hunting knives at eleven years old, and would go on to become the youngest Journeyman Smith in the American Bladesmith Society at 15, eventually becoming the youngest Master Smith at 19. It wouldn't be long until a friend would mention Josh's company to podcaster Joe Rogan, and soon after an endorsement on Rogan's podcast would lead to a huge boon in business, with swift connections to the likes of UFC Founder Dana White and even President Donald Trump.Since then, Montana Knife Company has only continued to explode in growth - today, they're building a 55,000 square-foot retail facility with large showroom windows offering an inside view into the manufacturing process, and even a Black Rifle Coffee shop to boot. They're hailed as some of the finest knife makers in the world, and all made proudly right here in the United States. So what's the secret to making some of the world's best blades? Is there any real value to Damascus steel, or any of the other fad blades you see today? And most importantly - when is Montana Knife Company finally going to start offering a folded blade?----------Support Josh Smith - Website: https://www.montanaknifecompany.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/montanaknifecompanyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y69ZnNAX0NYWebsite: https://www.joshsmithknives.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/joshsmithknivesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshsmithknives----------TEAM DOG FOOD, TREATS & SUPPLEMENTSBe Your Dog’s Hero: Veteran-owned by a former Navy SEAL and Special Operations K9 Trainer, Team Dog provides a complete diet of science-backed premium dog food, treats, and supplements to optimize your dog’s health, forged from rigorous standards and real-world expertise.https://www.teamdog.shop TEAM DOG ONLINE TRAININGMike Ritland – a former Navy SEAL & Special Operations K9 trainer – shares his simple and effective dog training program to build trust and control with your dog. Based on Mike’s bestselling book “Team Dog, Train the Navy SEAL Way”, join tens of thousands of families that successfully trained their way to a better dog. https://www.teamdog.pet SHOP ALL THE MIKE RITLAND BRANDS Get all your Mike Ritland branded gear - Mike Drop | Trikos | Team Doghttps://shop.mikeritland.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.
