Ok sorry Shawn , I love you, but I had to pause the episode (3:31:33) just to say, every guy in that room sucks. lol First, this poor poor woman was completely broadsided when her husband just blurts out very personal details, of what we now know to be one of the most devastating moments of her life, that none of us saw coming, on a national broadcast. Then, you sandbag her and call her up to the carpet, to further discuss the hurtful and I know from first-hand experience, humiliating details. Keeping her composure, she obliges and is first class all the way in answering all of your questions. After having the life sucked out of her on the world's stage, she very politely apologizes for her mouth being dry and you knuckleheads can't take a subtle hint and get this poor lady a glass of water.🤦‍♀️ And you guys worked in "intelligence" of all things. I hope all of your wives were tuning in! 🤣

It’s incredible? “I never cheated on my wife, let me tell you how i cheated on my wife.”

The single most incredible recovery story I’ve heard in 35 years of Sobriety. Un F#%ing real. Thank you Shawn 🙏🏻👊🏼

Memphis is my hometown and man what a story with a impact. I’m greatful to see people like you making a difference and helping Memphis to get off that list. It’s a great city, Make Memphis Great Again! 🇺🇸👊

Try not reading into the propaganda and listen to the man’s actual words. No way an uninformed question like this gets a response from Shawn - do your research

I'm not sure if Shawn or Ben will read this, but this episode struck a cord with me. I was in tears listening to this podcast episode. My son was a Heroin addict for 5 years. He started with Adderall, then snorted heroin, then injected it. He overdosed in his bedroom, and I performed CPR on him and resuscitated him. He was in and out of rehab for 3 years. During all of this, I was a police officer in Baltimore City. He attempted suicide twice, trying to get enough fentanyl to die. But he didn't. God had a plan. I finally gave him the sink or swim treatment. He's been clean for over 6 years, a great job, girlfriend and a one month old son. I couldn't be more proud of him. And you, too, Ben. You are an inspiration.

Regarding the discussion about 444 - I zoned out part way through that conversation so I hit the back arrow a few times to rewind. It took me back to 4:44 of the video. My mom was very unexpectedly diagnosed with cancer two days before this. If there was ever a time to get a wink from God, it was that moment.

I can relate to Ben & Jess's life. Started drinking @ HS parties on the weekends & pain pills after a motocross accident when I was 16. Fast forward 15 years and I'm drinking very very heavily along with a $200+ daily pain pill addiction that ended up with me losing over $25k in tools (diesel technician) both of my beautiful vehicle's, my house & in the very end, losing my job. 5/16/25 my daughter will be 9. I've been sober (with the acception of drinking 2 times, which is a reminder why I quit to begin with) since she was 6mo old. I thank God daily for sending me an angel on 5/6/2016. My daughter knows she saved my life, and when she's older I plan on telling her how.

Thoughts about JD Vance's slander of British troops who fought along side yourselves in multiple conflicts around the world? I like you Shawn and have been a supporter for many years! You speak for what is right. How come you have gone very quiet on these topics and are not standing up for the veteran community with your platform?
