#88 - John Stryker Meyer Breaks 20-Year Silence on Vietnam's Secret War
Watch on YouTube → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoaS6eftXdY
John Stryker "Tilt" Meyer was a Green Beret team leader with MAC-V SOG, running top-secret recon missions across the fence into Laos, Cambodia, and North Vietnam. His six-man teams faced hundreds of enemy soldiers in triple-canopy jungle, extracted under heavy fire every single time, and carried the weight of stories they couldn't tell for two decades. In this raw conversation, John shares what it means to earn a Green Beret, how faith carried him through moments when the math said he shouldn't survive, and why he's spent years making sure the courage of his brothers, especially the 98 Green Berets still missing in action, is never forgotten.
We talk about the NVA soldier who touched his boot and walked away, the Christmas Day extraction where helicopter blades held back flames, divine intervention in the jungle, losing his son in 2020, and the sacred duty to get the story right. This is about vulnerability under fire, brotherhood that transcends decades, and what happens when you finally break a silence that lasted 20 years.

#87 - Leland Vittert: Middle School Trained Me for War Zones
Leland Vittert didn't speak until age three. Diagnosed with what we now know as autism, he spent middle school crying himself to sleep while his father repeated one message: "The qualities that make you bullied now will make you successful later."
In this raw conversation, Leland opens up about his memoir Born Lucky, a father-son story about choosing resilience over accommodation and truth over popularity. We talk about the decision his parents made not to shelter him from adversity, but to hold his hand through it. About learning to turn isolation into independence, and pain into purpose.
This isn't a polished highlight reel. It's an honest look at neurodivergence, parenting choices, bullying, and what it costs to stand your ground when the truth matters most.
Key moments:
Growing up neurodivergent before we had the language for it
The parenting decision that changed everything
Why middle school bullying prepared him for Washington newsrooms
Finding your voice when you literally couldn't speak
The father-son relationship that became his foundation
Whether you're a parent of a struggling kid, someone who's faced isolation, or anyone trying to find strength in their story, this conversation offers hope, honesty, and the reminder that your hardest seasons might be preparing you for something greater.
Guest: Leland Vittert is a journalist and author of Born Lucky, chronicling his journey from a nonverbal child with severe learning disabilities to a voice millions trust.

#86 - Allan Houston: The NBA Shot That Changed Everything
That 1999 playoff shot with 8 tenths of a second left made Allan Houston a New York Knicks legend. But the man behind that iconic moment is so much more than a clutch shooter.
In this raw conversation, the NBA All-Star and Olympic gold medalist opens up about growing up as the son of pioneering coach Wade Houston, battling career-ending injuries, and his journey from Madison Square Garden to mentoring the next generation. Allan shares his FISLL principles—Faith, Integrity, Sacrifice, Leadership, and Legacy—and why he believes legacy isn't something you look back on, it's something you're writing right now.
As a father of seven and chaplain for the Knicks, Allan reveals what it really takes to keep family at the center when the world pulls you in every direction, the moment his faith became his own at 16, and the unspoken pressures of life under the brightest lights in basketball.
What You'll Hear:
The real story behind THAT Miami shot and what happened the next day
Why his father almost made him stay at Louisville instead of playing for him at Tennessee
How 90s basketball compares to today's game
Navigating the disappointment when your body stops cooperating with your will
Why "legacy is a verb" and what that means for your life right now
This isn't just a basketball story, it's about preparing for your moment, finding faith when self-belief isn't enough, and understanding that true greatness comes from what you give back.

#85 - Curtis Martin: Never Loved Football, But Became a Hall of Famer
NFL Hall of Famer Curtis Martin shares the raw truth behind his legendary career: he never really loved football. Despite becoming the sixth all-time leading rusher in NFL history, Curtis reveals that football was simply a vehicle for a deeper purpose, and his greatest accomplishment had nothing to do with the game.
Curtis opens up about surviving extreme childhood violence in Pittsburgh, having a gun held to his head, finding his grandmother brutally murdered, and becoming "the man of the house" at age four. He shares the extraordinary story of helping his mother forgive his father after 22 years of bitterness, making a deal with God at 20 convinced he wouldn't live past 21, and why consistency, not talent, became his superpower.
From navigating a world where 30 friends were murdered before graduation to setting out to finish his career with "a name worth more than the money I made," Curtis reveals what it truly means to live with purpose, conquer fear, and die empty. If you've ever struggled with forgiveness or wondered how to turn pain into purpose, this conversation will change your perspective.

#84 - Jack Carr: What The SEALs Taught Me About Leadership & Storytelling
What does it take to lead when lives are on the line? How do you translate the weight of combat into stories that resonate with millions? Navy SEAL and #1 New York Times bestselling author Jack Carr joins Tim and Troy Green for an unforgettable conversation that covers it all.
From his 20 years in Naval Special Warfare to the unlikely story of how The Terminal List became a hit series starring Chris Pratt, Jack holds nothing back. He gets personal about the deployment moments that still shape his writing, the profound impact of raising a special needs child, and why he believes we are losing the empathy that binds us together.
This isn't just an author interview; it's a masterclass in courage, character, and the responsibility of telling stories with honor.

#83 - Aron D'Souza: The Controversy That Could Redefine Humanity
“Change only happens when somebody puts a suit on and goes to work every day to solve a problem.”
Aron D’Souza has taken that advice from his friend Peter Thiel to heart. As the founder of the Enhanced Games, he is leading a bold, controversial, and thought-provoking movement into what he calls “the enhanced age.”
In this conversation, expect your assumptions to be shattered. Is it really more dangerous to enhance the body than to hand a child a smartphone? Why do we trust Coca-Cola and McDonald’s as Olympic sponsors but fear scientific advancement in sport? If you could give your son or daughter a pill to make them smarter, would you?
Aron doesn’t just argue for the Enhanced Games - he argues for the inevitability of an Enhanced Age. Along the way, he calls out safety culture, athlete exploitation, capitalism’s addictions, and the poverty of imagination holding society back.
This isn’t just a debate about sports. It’s a funeral for tradition, a rallying cry for bold vision, and perhaps the most unapologetic case for human progress you’ve ever heard.

#82 - Curt Menefee: Behind the Mic of the NFL’s Greatest Moments
Curt Menefee has spent two decades as the steady voice guiding fans through the NFL’s biggest games. From humble beginnings in Atlanta with a single mom, to calling the Super Bowl in front of 150 million viewers, Curt’s journey is one of grit, authenticity, and grace under pressure.
In this conversation with Tim and Troy Green, Curt opens up about the moments that defined his career: bombing his first jokes on live TV, the mentor who told him to “just be yourself,” and the high stakes broadcasts where the world was watching and he could not stumble. He also shares the lessons of resilience, faith, and perspective that shaped not only his career but his life.
This is more than football. It is about what it takes to keep your composure when everything is on the line, and why staying true to yourself is the ultimate victory.
