Well, fair to say we wrapped up our summer line up for The Team House and are moving into fall. We're booked into December as of now. Here is what you missed over the summer:

Navy SEAL turned CIA officer Jeff Butler @SOFFru1 :

CIA analyst @smcarls1 Sarah Carlson and the embassy evacuation in Libya:

Ranger Battalion combat medic @Doc_Irrelephant Ian Kurashige:

Ret. Green Beret John Mullins who served with MACV-SOG, Blue Light, and the Phoenix Program. Also the inspiration for the Soldier of Fortune video games.

Shane Willard of South Africa's police Special Task Force talking about hair raising hostage rescue missions:

My buddy Bob Charest discussing his time with Special Forces Detachment A and tours in Vietnam. Cold War espionage, sabotage, and unconventional warfare in the jungles of Vietnam and the streets of Berlin.

Flying with the CIA's secret Air Force with Air America pilot Neil Hansen. Amazing story...also about how he started running drugs from Colombia after the war.

F-16 pilot Dan Hampton talking about current and historical US military aviation.

Super lucky to get this interview with Cuban immigrant turned Green Beret Ruben Garcia. He served in Vietnam and out at Mott Lake with SOT.

Former CIA propaganda operations officer Joe Goldberg @jgoldhawk1 talking about running disinformation operations overseas.

Trained by US Special Forces, the Light Reaction Regiment of the Philippines has come into their own conducting dangerous special operations missions which have gone untold, until now.

An OG, a gray beard, a wise man worth listening to. Kenn Miller was a LRRP in Vietnam and tells us about the men and the mission as well as his reflections on war.

Marine Corps Scout Sniper Ed Kugler telling us about his two years in Vietnam. Some insane stories.

Chuck Woodson served with Special Forces including a tour in Vietnam before becoming an academic and SF historian. We had a great conversation last week.

I think I'll have a very tough time matching this next summer. In the meantime, if you have enjoyed these interviews with Vietnam veterans you'll like what we have coming in Sept.

Including a gent who served with Recon and Force Recon in Vietnam before joining the Rhodesian Light Infantry and Selous Scouts. Then, MACV-SOG vet and old friend John Stryker Meyer.

This fall we have lined up:
-CIA ops officer
-5th Special Forces Group GWOT vet
-Authors and veterans @JWilsonWarTorn and @LexicalForge
-Ret. SFOD-D operator
-@Mpolymer
-Former Marine turned CIA paramilitary officer
-@JustinLascek
-two women who served in PSYOPS
-@EebenBarlow
