Remi Adeleke has a lot on his plate. Between writing, directing, acting, producing, and even authoring his new book 'Chameleon: A Black Box Thriller', it's safe to say he's busier than ever, and that's in an industry that's not always easy to work in - film and television. He's also been on the show before - avid listeners might remember his appearance back on Episode 32 to talk about his military career as a SEAL, or when he came back again in Episode 59 to catch up and talk current events. So for his third appearance on Mike Drop - a first for any returning guest of the show - what exactly does he have to talk about? Let's get Hollywood.----------Chapters:00:00 - Intro11:00 - Hollywood Surprises14:46 - Big Budget Pictures21:00 - Moviemaking 10125:43 - A Self-Taught Writer30:36 - AI and the Writer's Strike46:10 - Writer, Actor, Producer, Director57:52 - Bankable Names01:03:07 - What Makes A Good Story?01:17:00 - Targeted Content01:23:33 - Organ Harvesting01:34:19 - Blood Trafficking01:42:30 - Safer Screenwriting01:50:51 - Transformed the Film01:58:21 - Chameleon: A Black Box Thriller----------Support Remi Adeleke -Get Your Copy of 'Chameleon: A Black Box Thriller': https://tr.ee/tdXwjGb0_cLinktree: https://linktr.ee/remiadelekeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/remiadelekeRemi's Previous Mike Drop Episode (#32): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIh1PYD7xOIRemi's Previous Mike Drop Episode (#59): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VUgoAvFcIo----------Sponsors:1st Phormhttps://www.1stphorm.com/mikedrop | Free shipping on all orders over $75 when you use the link! ----------BUBS NaturalsThe BUBS namesake derives from Glen ‘BUB’ Doherty, who was heroically killed in Benghazi, Libya in 2012.

MARSOC - an elite component command of the United States Special Operations Command that comprises the Marine Corps' contribution to SOCOM. Just take it from Christian - he was one of the first Marines admitted into the Corps' elite program. Since his days in deployment, he's pivoted; a turn as a Texas State Trooper on Border Patrol and a police officer in Austin certainly don't hurt his already outstanding resume. But titles are more than just accolades - they're a sterling reminder of the gun fights, close calls, and high-speed chases that can only happen on American highways. ----------Chapters:00:00 - Intro02:06 - IED Developments09:01 - Finding MARSOC19:32 - The Horn of Africa33:33 - The Service Limitations Rule39:09 - ...Underage Drinking?43:54- Instructing at SERE School59:16 - The Three Most Important Survival Tips01:06:53 - A Texas State Trooper on Border Patrol01:19:18 - Human Trafficking01:26:55 - Highway Work01:34:41 - Back at Academy01:44:38 - A High-Speed Getaway in Austin01:52:19 - Souped-Up Patrol Cars01:57:00 - Police Office Politics02:00:02 - Finance, Finance, Finance----------Support Christian Holloway - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chris.holloway_fiYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs1jwxG_W_NAVVX8KlZ-MigLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-holloway1----------Sponsors: 1st Phorm https://www.1stphorm.com/mikedrop | Free shipping on all orders over $75 when you use the link!----------BioProteinUse code MIKEDROP to save $30 on your first order at https://www.bioproteintech.com----------Black BuffaloGo to blackbuffalo.com/discount/MIKEDROP and use promo code Mike Drop at checkout for 15% off your first order!Black Buffalo products are intended for adults aged 21 and older who are consumers of nicotine or tobacco.----------Fueled by TeamDog | www.mikeritlandco.com | @Teamdog.petALL THINGS MIKE RITLAND:SHOP for Fueled By Team Dog Performance Dog Food, Treats, Apparel, Accessories, and Protection dogs - MikeRitlandCo.com - https://www.MikeRitlandCo.com Team Dog Online dog training - TeamDog.pet - https://www.TeamDog.petThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5531509/advertisement Learn more about your ad choices.

Christian Holloway was just a mild mannered, all-American, belt-fed marine, right up until he found himself being deployed as infantry to the second battle of Fallujah. It was far from the only time he'd find himself in a tough spot - Christian's got more than one story of close calls, stray squirters, and unexploded rocket-propelled grenades courtesy of Saddam's best and brightest.Eventually his experiences led him to becoming one of the earliest members of MARSOC, the Marine Special Operations Command that's now known as the Marine Raiders, where he found even more action from an entirely different side of the globe. That's why he's sitting down today to tell us all about it. ----------Chapters:00:00 - Intro02:05 - Why Are We Here?10:08 - David Goggins Can't Hurt Me17:03 - I Wanted to Fly Planes23:33 - In Country, Out of Options37:27 - The Craziest Gunfight I Got Into47:52 - Everybody's Got a Plan Until First Contact01:02:45 - They Weren't Pulling Pins01:14:08 - Searching Bodies for Intel01:22:47 - Post-Deployment Leave01:28:32 - Second Deployment01:47:49 - IED Developments----------Support Christian Holloway - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chris.holloway_fiYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs1jwxG_W_NAVVX8KlZ-MigLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-holloway1----------Sponsors: MUD/WTRGo to https://www.mudwtr.com/mike to support the show and use code MIKEMUD for 15% off----------1st Phorm https://www.1stphorm.com/mikedrop | Free shipping on all orders over $75 when you use the link!----------BioProteinUse code MIKEDROP to save $30 on your first order at https://www.bioproteintech.com----------Fueled by TeamDog | www.mikeritlandco.com | @Teamdog.petALL THINGS MIKE RITLAND:SHOP for Fueled By Team Dog Performance Dog Food, Treats, Apparel, Accessories, and Protection dogs - MikeRitlandCo.com - https://www.MikeRitlandCo.com Team Dog Online dog training - TeamDog.pet - https://www.TeamDog.petThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5531509/advertisement Learn more about your ad choices.

Last week on the podcast, Mike talked to Greg Anderson about his background and military service - after a turn as an Army Ranger with 14 overseas deployments and some additional work in private contracting, Greg stepped into law enforcement as a U.S. Marshall, and later a Police Officer for the Port of Seattle in Washington. All of these moments are things that would define anybody else's biography - soldier, contractor, Marshall, officer, and even Jiu-Jitsu gym owner would all be enough for an already outstanding life. But for Greg, it's all background for one particular day on the job - when he published an Instagram video of a fiery defiance of unconstitutional lockdown orders from inside the very squad car he served the public from every day. ----------Chapters:00:00 - Intro01:10 - A Positive Pregnancy Test06:10 - Hired by the U.S. Marshalls13:01 - Smarter Criminals19:58 - That Time We Seized a Luxury Yacht31:46 - There For My Dad38:32 - Starting A Jiu Jitsu Gym48:02 - A Patrol Cop in Seattle01:00:29 - Going Viral01:09:26 - Putting GoFundMe Into the Gym01:27:57 - Why Cops Don't Train01:42:47 - What's Next?01:54:20 - Humbled On The Mat----------Support Greg Anderson: Linktree - https://linktr.ee/Granderson33Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/granderson33Podcast - Endless Endeavor with Greg Anderson - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/endless-endeavor-with-greg-anderson/id1520461765----------Sponsors: MUD/WTRGo to https://www.mudwtr.com/mikedrop to support the show and use code MIKEDROP for 15% off----------ManscapedGet 20% off + free shipping with the code MikeDrop at https://www.manscaped.com.

'No one is coming to save you.' It's not quite as dour as it sounds - to Greg Andseron, it's a phrase that he says all the time at his Electric North Jiu Jitsu Academy in Washington. It reminds him to chart his own course; that you yourself are truly the only person blazing the trail for your own life. And it's perfect for him too - not all that long ago Greg was an Army Ranger with 14 overseas deployments, with an added turn in private contracting and even a brief stint as a national U.S. Marshall. He also served as a Police Officer in Seattle, right up until the heat of the COVID-19 pandemic when he went viral with a video from inside his squad car where he explained that officers like himself have a civic duty to protect and serve the constitutional rights of the American people, consequences be damned.Safe to say, Greg's got quite a story behind him - one that's still developing, as he continues to speak his mind from his gym, his instagram, and his podcast, Endless Endeavor with Greg Anderson. But it's not always about who you are. Sometimes it's about where you came from.----------Chapters:00:00 - Intro02:10 - Actually, We HAVE Met Before10:17 - A Most Humbling Jiu Jitsu Story19:01 - Ten Pages A Day34:02 - Morning Chaos39:55 - Growing Up On the Water50:38 - Getting Into Ranger Regiment59:09 - Going to Afghanistan01:08:34 - Joining Triple Canopy01:20:09 - Friendly Fire01:25:49 - The August 10th Ambush----------Support Greg Anderson:Linktree - https://linktr.ee/Granderson33Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/granderson33Podcast - Endless Endeavor with Greg Anderson - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/endless-endeavor-with-greg-anderson/id1520461765----------Sponsors:BUBS NaturalsThe BUBS namesake derives from Glen ‘BUB’ Doherty, who was heroically killed in Benghazi, Libya in 2012.

Zach Garner's career as a Green Beret was on thin ice. Following his first seizure, he quickly discovered that something deeper was beginning to rise to the surface - a cavalcade of medical maladies that nobody could've predicted. Fortunately, Zach's no quitter, so he shifted gears, transitioning seamlessly into contract work and participating in Iron Man marathons around the country.But sometimes there's more to life than simply being resilient, and some illnesses aren't so easily remedied - especially when it comes to an invisible enemy so horrifying that it eats its victims from the inside.
