Ret. Green Beret Storyteller Scott Mann - Part 2 | Mike Ritland Podcast Episode 135

On Episode 134, Scott Mann talked about his humble beginnings - enlisting in the Army, working his way up to Special Ops, and discovering some of the most untold parts of the world in a way only a good soldier can. But Scott's leadership, and the struggles that came with it, were only small part of that story. In Part 2, Scott digs into the challenges that come with leading, and the often absurd political machinations that come with it, before diving into the aptly named Operation Pineapple Express, reviewing his charitable works, and explaining just how he managed to get on a stage in his acclaimed play 'Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret.' ----------Chapters:00:00 - Intro01:17 - Running the Ops Center17:29 - Navigating Leadership Waters23:13 - Challenging Calls40:56 - Regretful Ops46:07 - Retiring on My Terms58:16 - Gender, Vaccines, & Social Engineering in the Military01:02:50 - Different Ways in Ukraine01:11:26 - Veteran Entrepreneurs01:15:21 - Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret01:19:01 - Operation Pineapple Express----------Support Scott Mann: Website - https://scottmann.comPlay - Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret - https://lastoutplay.comBook - Operation Pineapple Express - https://operationpineappleexpress.comPodcast - The Rooftop Podcast - https://spoti.fi/3FIz3vsYouTube - https://bit.ly/3lsoR3vInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/scottmannauthorFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMannAuthor----------Sponsors: BUBS Naturals The BUBS namesake derives from Glen ‘BUB’ Doherty, who was heroically killed in Benghazi, Libya in 2012.
