Laura

Dan Crenshaw… oh wait… Victor Marx 100% his vision, his drive, his COURAGE, and everything he stands for. Thank you for continuing to shine light in the darkness.

Joshua Schnider

I really liked Pete Blaber, great interview, I learned a ton. But I'm a relatively new listener.

Ryan Morring

Tom Satterly Episode #77 I was always amazed, at a fairly young age, watching the movie Black Hawk Down. Hearing first hand accounts and the pure and RAW emotion of Tom describing that day in Mogadishu was just sobering. I have probably referred that episode to friends and family more than any other episode. Honor, Courage, and Commitment all wrapped into a single story!

Hunter

Cody Alfred. I entered because the show continues to be amazing with good intentioned folks looking to make a difference, and I’m grateful to be a part of it!

Mauve

Jeremiah Johnston. Shawn was speechless many times. I loved it!

Marcus Cash

Michael Lester the first episode. After that I purchased his book and it has changed my life.

Lynn Dungan

Hi Shawn, my most favorite episode was Jeremiah Johnston, all the show and tell all the answers all the confidence I want to have when I share my faith, it really boosted me up. I love that you share books with friends, I started doing that as well, what a great example. I love all the shows exposing the people taking advantage of children as they have the smallest voice sometimes, God Bless You, keep up the good work. A brother in Christ ✝️

Matthew Begovich

Victor Marx. Incredible life story and testimony.

Matt

Schlep, I had no idea

tim karabin

Pete scoble- such an incredible story and humble guy

Sky Rocket

Eddie Penny. He was raw, loved his story.

Kyle Wilson

Mike Durant. I watched him speak at the University of Alabama and got to talk to him again in Huntsville.

Medevac93

Pete Blaber. He provided so much insight on everything from Takur Gar, to the Par Tillman incident to mention a few. It was basically a first hand account of recent history

Brenden Reitschky

Dj by far my favorite dj explains his life in special forces and his life story so well makes you get a glimpse of a life most do t talk about

Paul Baek

My favorite was with Joshua Broome, episode #196. It was such a fantastic interview that shows redemption is indeed difficult, but very much possible. I enjoyed hearing his journey and how you both highlighted how the porn industry has negatively impacted our society and perceptions of healthy sexual relationships.

Devin Samaha

Joe Kent. Loved hearing a true patriot with insider information.

Robert Walters

Fan of your Shawn keep telling the truth! Also I would love a sig...

Gavin Domingue

Has to be Pete! It was awesome listening to some of the stories he had during his service years.

restless soul

Father Chad ripperger # 285 excellent episode

CT

I love all your shows but most recently #284 is my favorite. Everyone that has kids needs to watch and listen to it. My kids are the most important people in my life besides my wife. I would have never known just how bad those platforms are if I didn't watch or listen to your show. Thank you for spreading truth.

Kristian

DJ Shipley Helped me enter the service. Till this day I still listen to parts of it. So much wisdom

Rick Barry

My favorite episodes are with Ryan Montgomery all information he tells us and what he is doing in the community is awesome

Matthew Jones

Matthew Jones. Pete Blaber very good storytelling

J Welch

#293 Jeremiah Johnston great interview and I think everybody needs a little Jesus in their life right now!!!! 🙏🏼

David

All the Montgomery episodes, I had no idea child predators were this big of a problem until I listened to Ryan talk about it

Evan

I loved both of episodes with Ryan Montgomery. He’s such an amazing guy. Made me want to get involved and helping to safe the kids.

Chris Hoffman

I liked Kyle Morgan. Down to earth and humble.

Jacob C

Episode #279 with Wes Huff. Your pursuit of Jesus Christ is inspiring, and the humility you embody is something I deeply respect and aspire to reflect in my own life.

michael andrew marx

The Victor Marx Episode is my favorite! It spelled out in a very clear, precise way of how to Firgive....

Anthony Woolever

Nathan Apffel is my favorite. It confirmed so many suspicions I've had about the church for some time. Very eye opening.

Ronald Smith

Tough one. So I will have to go with a fairly recent one that I must say opened my eyes to a few things. While being a Catholic listening to Father Ripperger #285 was amazing. To hear him talk about what he deals with doesn’t surprise me but blessed to know he is out there.

Wyatt Hayes

Dj Shipley, the story’s told and life lessons you can learn in that episodes were great!

Shane Brockmann

So far the episode with Pete Blaber is one of my favorites because I had no idea how a lot of those conflicts actually went until he explained them

Preston Brooks

Jocko Willink Ep #257 great stories told

John Pendery

Joe Lonsdale for the fascinating discussion around the intersection of tech, entrepreneurship, and national defense

Minato

Michael Lester episodes are really my favorite, he gives us so much information

Donovan D

Either Ryan Montgomery or Sarah Adams exposing the Taliban payments, tough choice. Both eye opening for different reasons!

Jacob warner

Kyle Morgan’s episode was just absolutely excellent. His story from beginning to end had me in tears. It’s crazy to see where he started and where he ended up.

Nate Wilde

It’s tough to narrow it down to just one. I have to say the Rob O’Neill episode is my favorite because he’s an excellent communicator, he’s quick and witty, and somewhat of a smart-ass, and much can be learned from his experiences as a Tier One operator. I admire the discipline, mental toughness, critical teamwork, and preparation for any task that he and the team may be called up for.

Dr. JB

The Sarah Adams series has by far been the greatest addition to your content. Bright, talented, and an unimpeachable source of information.

Damariz Coronado

Favorite episode was 2 pt with Sarah Adams!! It exposes what open borders did and how terrorist have crossed. Being in Texas I've seen this first hand and this episode had validated my experience.

Hunter

Annie Jacobson for me for sure I enjoyed seeing Shawn learn about how truly fast the world could essentially end and I thought the knowledge of Annie was amazing and loved the history that went along with it

beate edwards

I've been so many excellent episodes but I split Pete Blabbers up into 3 days. He's such a kind man and has such common sense and the ability to communicate it

Mark Reaper

SRS 146 , Blake Cook At the end Faith does not fail you! There is always a purpose and plan for each one of us !

Dylan Thomas

Favorite episode #146 with Blake Cook The way he carried himself through adversity. after wanting to quit and end it all. he found a niche that helped him shine brighter and give a purpose. the way he was vulnerable and raw with his emotions is a great example of how we should look and go about how we feel because you never know who’s going through the same thing. great episode!

Noah Molina

#29 Becuase Dustin heard was from my hometown! I remember our small town supporting him and I’ve never seen our community come together before like that! But my most recent one is 293. I’ve been a catholic all my life and I’m still learning to this day! It was very powerful and it reminded me of how awful they treated him. All because he loves us!

Tony Weedn

Most recently 292 with Brett as the robots are coming!

John Ford

My #1 is AJ Gentile because I love the conversation you two had. No specific topic, just two guys sitting down to talk about weird shit. And I love that you inspired him to start his own interview podcast! My second favorites are your Ryan Montgomery episodes. It really woke me up to the dangers kids face on the internet these days. I take every chance to share that knowledge with my friends who have kids.

Gavin Ducote

The shlep episode. Really opened my eyes to how bad these predators are and very informative. I have 2 kids. 1 and 3. Definitely changed my perspective on video games and how closely I will monitor what my kids do on the internet or in games. (If I even let the on it) 😂😂

Brett Kuster

Ryan Montgomery/Schlep episodes cause they are willing to talk about things that no one wants to with no bias

SergeyM

The best ever interview that Shawn did was with Pete Blaber…, would like to see interview with Colonel Douglas, McGregor

L

Oh gosh! Biden, Jnr. A broken addict recovered facing scrutiny and criticism handling it like a gentleman, the way he did. Liked it

Tex

Mine Lee stroble just seems like someone I would aspire to be like his attitude is just amazing and he brings joy the way he tells a story

Ducky0714

I cannot say I have one favorite, but Shleb and Ryan Montgomery stand out because I currently work in online crimes against children. Moreover I am working through a masters program that culminates in my design of a website framework and whitepaper for early youth prevention in online radicalization and extremism. Additionally Pete Blaber stands out because it is a shame we must wait until patriots like him retire to hear truths that contradict what we are told by government entities. The same can be said about Joe Kent

Blake S

Shrek; he just puts you in a good mood and makes you want to get stuff done!

Brandon Molands

My favorite episode is with Ryan Montgomery. Just love the things you guys are trying to stop and all the cool gadgets and ways he showed to "get" people and I wanna get involved and help

Jim Fulmer

DJ Shipley, because it's real. Good with the bad.

Sterling Shelton

Ryan Montgomery, I have kids and protecting them from those who wish to do harm using platforms that should be innocent was eye opening. Love his work and your support and platform to keep his voice and message shouted to the world is huge!

Christian K

Father Chad ripperger. Such an insightful and cool experience to hear about stuff that no one hears about the spiritual realm.

Alex Larson

#294 has got to be my favorite And any Sarah Adams episode

Mike Brimley

My favorite episode has got to be with Don Graves, hearing not only the amazing story of his war experience but the outlook of America at that time has never left me. That’s also the episode that made me start seeking out the episodes that Shawn has older vets talk about their experiences, I’d love to see as much of that as we can while those heroes are still with us

Crystal

The two videos I was really interested in was the episode with "Schlep", highlighting concerns with Roblox platform. A couple of years ago, we lost a middle school-aged student to suicide because he was sextorted. His father was the head coach of a local university, so the incident was well known- and heart- breaking; the other episode I was really drawn into was Pete Blaber. That episode....wow!

Chad Frank

If I have to choose one then it’s Ben Owen. That episode was amazing. To see what that guy went through and all that he and his wife are now doing is absolutely amazing. I donated to the cause immediately after that episode.

Zac

Joe mcmoneagle He has some crazy stories and the remote viewing and out of body experiences are things you would only think exist in movies and books. I can’t wait to go to the Monroe institute and see how real everything is and what brain functions we have lost over time.

Logan kinder

Dick Thompson the Vietnam guys had no support when they got back and so many stories ended up getting lost

Michael Sexton

My favorite episode was the DJ Shipley interview because it showed a good example of what real strength looks like despite fighting some of the toughest battles off the battlefield.

Luke Reilly

Cody Alford! Very well spoken and very involved in the discussion. There was never a dull moment.

Seth Moore

Tyler Andrew-Vargas! Humbling episode and incredible human being. His episode showcases the costs that come with terrible leadership but his attitude and willpower are inspiring and give me reason to stop complaining and to push through during difficult times.

Rickey Ray Sack, Jr

Sarah Adams episodes. Her in depth knowledge of the Middle East and the threats we face are incredible. Her episodes has Gavin us a in depth understanding what goes on behind the scenes and how we can better prepare ourselves for future events and what took look out for to help combat those events.

S CERVANTES

Jim Caviezel’s episode is my favorite because it didn’t feel like an interview it felt real. He wasn’t talking about success, he was talking about the cost physically, mentally, and spiritually. That perspective stuck with me more than anything else.

Austin Weaver

#255 Ryan Montgomery everyone needs to know the dangers of the internet and gaming world.

Matt Young

As a fellow who served in the Marines and Army with multiple combat deployments I enjoyed all my fellow combat arms brothers adventures and stories and am so happy to have them here to speak to you I also Loved getting introduced to Wes Huff #279 I think he has been a favorite of mine.

Tammy Miller

All of them :). I love your addiction and passion to share the truth! Pete Blaber is my current fave! Thank you for all you do! ♥️

Jaxson Walker

Pete Scobell. Such a great interview & the way Pete explained his troubles with the absence of his father & mother really touched me & has had me thinking about my trauma lately & why it made me the person I am today.

Benjamin

DJ Shipley. It was released on thanksgiving a few years ago. On that thanksgiving day I had a really traumatic and stressful experience at thanksgiving dinner with my family. I remember coming home watching DJ afterwards. Hearing his story was exactly what I needed at the time. I always appreciate Sean releasing special episodes on the holidays. Holidays can be stressful for some people. Some of these episodes that have come out on the holidays have really helped me.

Nate Prusinski

Eddie Penny. Great life story. As a christian it helped deepen my faith on another level. As an Afghan vet just felt connected. Lige the show.

Chris Kantzavelos

John shrek McPhee Hearing the savageness of what it takes to be a leader and successful was life changing for me. The unusual, firsthand look into tier 1 was so interesting to hear. I love how we was unfiltered and gave us raw stories. The chemistry between the 2 of you couldn’t have been better and I truly appreciate all the work you do, Shawn & Team

Doctor P.

My favorite episode was about 2 weeks ago with Joe Kent for exposing the truth about Washington and what's going on with Iran. It's also not fair to pick one favorite, I have over 200 favorites!

Dustin

Tyler Vargas because YOU made his story public for everyone when nobody else would. It's tragic what happened but im so glad you got his story out there for everyone. You save lives without even knowing it. Edit* Tyler Vargas Andrews 🫡

sam yohanan

Hey Shawn, my favorite episode would be the tom satterly episode. Watching the movie years earlier and then hearing his account of black hawk down was one of the craziest war story’s I ever heard. Definitely have several favorites but that would be the first to come to mind as well as Ryan Montgomery

Matty

Sarah Adams, and the afghan vet are by far the two best. Love the show Shawn, been watching your show since I was in a wheelchair and was learning to walk again… there is no price to put on the value of the work you do. Thank you.

Frazier D

I found your show through Ed Calderon. His first episode on your show was my first and still my favorite.

Matt

Ryan Montgomery… I used to be completely unaware of the number of predators operating on platforms like Roblox and others. After learning more, I made sure my 16-year-old son and my twin 9-year-old daughters understood the risks and how to stay safe. I’ve also shared this information with my wife and many other parents, who have learned either directly from that episode or through me passing along what I took away from it.

Patrick Stone

Father Ripperger - it was great to hear about spiritual defense including practical steps to take.

Robert Golden

Shrek would be an awesome mentor and teammate

beate edwards

Oh yes Victor marks that was one of the First episodes that I watched! I'm really grateful to be part of this community too you are definitely making a difference Shawn and team

Jeff Deverna

Ryan Montgomery, 1st episode - love seeing Cyber related topics/episodes and he is doing great stuff.

RealBeef

Cody Alford. His story is the one of legends. To me he should be in the history books of our beloved Marine Corps.

Chad Paustian

Ryan Montgomery talking about Roblox. Was driving home from work and listened to that. Got home and deleted Roblox from all devices. Blocked it from being downloaded again. Thanks for helping me get my girls out of harms way!

Dan Gifford

Jeremiah Johnston, the historical and scientific proof of the crucifixion and resurrection is amazing. This one hit different than most episodes.

Chris Snider

#10 Marcus Capone, motivated me to look into Ibogaine and I plan on going later this year!

Joesuan Bonet

Mine Lee Strobel. But wat make me paid a monthly and be part of your fans. Is the fact that you are fighting for our children and have the courage to step up. Thank you for that.

Fisch

Eddie Penney for sure. Just the raw honesty and his faith was what I liked.

Thomas Larson

My favorite episode was when Tim Tebow he showed me how much evil there is in a own backyard. He also showed me how much are own government doesn’t care about are kids and the only people who can save them is us and hold everyone accountable!

simon samaha

Shyam Sankar cto of Palantir

Zach

Travis Howze As a firefighter myself, it brought awareness to what first responders deal with everyday.

Taylor Nichols

Tim Tebow - He’s just a genuinely good person. I love the work that he does and the passion that he has for his cause. The episode was thought provoking, inspiring and eye opening all at the same time.

Timmy Ohalek

Schlep. Being a parent of 2 toddlers this was a must listen. Thank you for what you do, the world needs more Shawn Ryans!

Taylor

Dj Shipley. He shows so much humility and is such an inspiration to all, especially veterans. He gives hope to the ones that need it most.

Jim Baber

Henry Dick Thompson .. amazing man

Mark Marez

Episode #285 with Father Ripperger. Absolutely amazing episode, and eye opening to the spiritual warfare all around!

Jacob Fager

Pete blaber!!! just the information on Iraq was insane. Let alone all the other information on all the other wars we’ve been in.

Andy

Lee Strobel His excitement and passion for sharing the truth is contagious.

David Wolfram

Joe Kent- The fact that another country (Israel) holds a tremendous amount of influence regarding policy decisions in America is not common knowledge. I personally believe it is a major driving force in the decline of America. It took a tremendous amount of courage to do what Joe did, and I believe actions like that are the only way to bring about change.

Bradley

My favorites are definitely the Ryan Montgomery episodes, despite how angry they make me. To see a guy that could’ve done so many other things with his skills devoting his time to protecting children really shows how great of a guy he is. As a father, I’ve learned so much from those episodes and I can’t thank you guys enough for all of the work you’re putting into protecting children.

Bill Wilson

The episode of your show with Eddie Penney is my favorite, not just the Shawn Ryan show but from any podcast I have watched. I have listened to a lot of interviews, but this one profoundly hit me. It was not just the stories, it was the weight behind them. You could hear it in his voice when he talked about his teammates, the guys he lost, the ones he still carries with him every day. What got to me the most was how real he was about the struggle. Not just combat, but what comes after. The loss, the guilt, the way it follows you home. When he talked about going through substance abuse and pulling himself out of that, it was not polished or rehearsed. That kind of honesty is rare, especially from someone who has every reason to just keep it buried. There was one moment that really stayed with me. When he talked about Barack Obama honoring his fallen teammates. The way he described that moment, you could feel the respect and the humanity in it. That was not about politics. That was about leadership. Real leadership. The kind that shows up when it matters, that recognizes sacrifice, and reminds people that they are seen. To me, that moment said everything about what leadership should look like. One person, in a position of power, taking the time to honor those who gave everything. Bridging that gap that so often divides people. It cut through all the hate and reminds us all of what is actually important. Respect, service, sacrifice, and recognizing the humanity in each other. That episode has stayed with me because it was not just a story about war or even recovery. It was about loss, accountability, and finding a way forward. And in the middle of all that, it showed what leadership can look like when it is done right.

Will

Episode 284 with Schlep. My kids aren’t the old to be on Roblox. My daughter that was on Roblox. My wife is Hispanic and all of her family is English as a second language so a lot of the parents just let their kids play the games. I was asked to sit down with the whole family of kids and explain it to everybody and I watched the episode with their parents and helped translate it and was able to get all the kids off of the game and I am extremely advocate to talking to every parent that I know has kids that played a game and share the video with them consistently. Thank you for all that you do.

Jake

For sure any of the Sarah Adam’s episodes all have been very informative

Clay

Father Chad Ripperger, and Jermiah Johnston. Great info for any Christian. These religious interviews strengthens my faith. Thank you Shawn for all you do and expose.

Nick Lucas

Pete Blaber-because of the multiple times he calls out the exact systemic problem amongst government and corporate leadership and gives the exact way to not have that problem. I only wish the majority of our “leaders” in this nation and our companies would hear this and apply it directly and immediately.

Steven Walker

Hi Shawn fav episode AJ from why files

Anthony hernandez

Joe Kent episode is my favorite the first and latest one

Dylan Stockman

DJ Shipley. I was struggling with just getting out of the military and balancing my new life as a husband and father. Heard his episode the day after my 18 month old interrupted my suicide attempt and haven't looked back since.

Micheal

My favorite episode will always be the Eddie Penny Episode. After watching that episode I thought to myself for weeks about God and getting back into Christianity. I started praying every night before bed. Then slowly going back to church. Till this day I pray every night. My faith has grown and so have I. I thank god I watched that episode because without it I probably would still walking around demons. There are several other episodes that I enjoy but this episode in particular is one I hold onto dearly and tell everyone I know to watch.

Chris

One of my favorite episodes was Eddie penny, his story and how he found Jesus Christ as his lord and savior. Was inspirational and shows how powerful god is.

Bryce King

Schlep. I have 2 young boys that play Roblox non stop. And I have seen prior episodes with Ryan M about how easy it is for predators to start talking. But after seeing Schlep and a real life victim I put a stop to Roblox and have sold my shares. I feel horrible for all the victims and I see how much you are involved with children. From Roblox, the camps, or any child exploitation. The shit needs to end.

Vincent Osborne

EDC video back from the beginning. It was the one that got me hooked on the show.

Tyler Howell

Episode #63. Showing how God can do all things and bring his people closer to him, in the most unique of ways. From one brother in Christ to another I hope, and pray that God can continue to use you and your team to continue to show the truth. Our relationship with God is the only thing that truly matters. I hope that he will show you that above all else that fails in our country he does not. You’re about the only podcast, I watch/listen to on a regular basis 🤙🏼

Jonathan Zundel

May favorite episode by far is Nick Shirley. He shows us how simple question asking can make positive things happen and reveal the untruths around us

Christine

Victor Marx ... the BEST interview you did as you listened so well and allowed Victor to share his entire story in a safe space, which allowed your listeners to hear it all! Victor's story is still the best given all he endured, all the work he has done in his marriage and in therapy and now in saving, not just children, but people around the world, including military, whom our government have ignored. The most transparent, emotional, inspiring interview you have done to date!!! Thank you! And in it all was God, and to Him goes all the Glory & Praise!

Deborah Gaddis

I have so many favorite episodes, but the ones I loved most were with one of my favorite authors Lee Strobel and the one evaluating the Shroud of Turin with Jeremiah Johnston. I saw the Shroud during a mission trip with More Than Gold during the Olympics in Turin and have learned so much more about it since then. Lee Strobel is so informed and has inspired me to learn more and more about the Bible. Thank you for all that you do to get the word out about Christian issues and how you discuss and ask pertinent questions. It is inspiring to walk your walk during your podcasts.

Nicky Friedrichsen

My favorite episode was with Tim Tebow. It was so inspiring and a breath of fresh air.

Curt Van Oort

Pete Blaber, Episode 1 is my most recent favorite. His honesty and humility shows through every answer or experience he shared. My wife and I listened while roadtripping from TX.

Dustin Bresin

Lee Strobel loved that episode. Soo many great interviews to pick from! 💪😎

Steven Cochran

Tyler Vargas-Andrews, listening to his experiences both during and after the Abby Gate incident really put that disaster into perspective.

Kirk

Shlep and Ryan Montgomery. Got me involved

Brayden

Gotta say, episode #15 with DJ is my favourite, it’s one I’ve gone back to a few times. There’s a lot of valuable insight in it that I think many people can take something away from.

hagop koulloukian

My favorite episode is episode #034 with Cody Alford, because I resonate with him because he turns his own raw vulnerability, emptiness, and the endless chase for “more” into honest, unflinching self-reflection that mirrors the internal struggles many people quietly face. His words force you to confront uncomfortable truths: that seeking external validation or tomorrow’s illusions won’t fill today’s voids, and that feeling lost or doubtful isn’t failure it’s part of choosing who you become. He makes you think deeply about purpose, self-worth, and forward motion without easy fixes or savior figures, blending tough empathy with a grounded “keep moving anyway” mindset that feels both relatable and quietly empowering.

Aaron Cox

Shlep and Ryan Montgomery. Two awesome guys doing God's work for our youth. Can't be overstate enough how important it is to continue their work in protecting our children.

ROY THOMAS

John “Shrek” McPhee! SRS #133 SHREK’S a true American Baddass!

Joe Sciolla

That’s tough! It’s like asking your favorite food or favorite song! DJ Shipley for his raw honesty, Pete Scobel for his story telling and relating his experiences to fatherhood but the latest with Pete Blaber about leadership might take it. His Common sense approach is something that is so very relatable to me as both a new father and business leader. I didn’t want that marathon to end!

Michael Bandas

My favorite episode was the guy that unknowingly committed the friendly fire wounding and then rendered aid to save their lives. That was deep and gut wrenching and speaks to his titanium character. Deeply moving story. I apologize for forgetting his name but it’s been a while. Probably the longest episode I’ve ever listened to. So far. Keep up the great work.

Ryan Turner

Episode #133 - John "Shrek" McPhee. Awesome interview, he's just one heck of a real guy. And he did a bunch of stuff in the military that was pretty wild. And teaches a bunch of good tactics on shooting.

James

DJ Shipley crazy raw story. #015

Wyattb96

The episode with Dj Shipley! I saw a video I think posted by Glover called 2 navy seals teach a green beret how to switch to a sig from a Glock! I then got recommended your podcast with do Shipley have been hooked ever since!

Heather

I love the episodes with Ryan Montgomery. That guy is awesome and what he does to help protect kids is amazing! Being a mother and a former CO at a prison designated specifically for people that do those things, I realize how incredibly important what he is doing is!

Robert Montaque

Nicholas Irving. Very emotional when talking about his brothers that died in battle. He didnt glorify death instead he felt every one of his kills and at the end questioned if it was all worth it

Lauren Stauffer

Always love my man Mr. Rob Oneill. As someone who has 16 veterans in my family I never not get chills hearing that story. I also love Tulsi. Just her drive to serve our country in all the ways and is steadfast in just being a good patriot can never deny that episode. Her part about the door handlers not getting respect is just 1 tiny detail that doesn’t go unnoticed

Jason Floyd

My favorite episode was with Elizabeth Phillips #272 while it was heartbreaking and so sad I know without a doubt it opened many parents eyes and hopefully saved a child from being treated in a way no one deserves

NCTC - Zach

Tulsi (131) or Joe (126 + 291) for obvious reasons!

Julie S

Schlep, #284, we love that guy. I have had long conversations with my 12 year old son about Schlep, who he looks up to as a hero. Thank you for helping to spread the word 🙏

Doug Landstad

Episode 272 with Elizabeth Phillips. I've lived about an hour west of Branson for over 40 years and had no idea of the horrors taking place so close to home. It really opened my eyes to the fact that abuse can happen anywhere. Even an area that most consider family friendly is not truly safe.

Chris

Alan Mack. My dream was to fly helicopters in the army and hearing his story resonated with me. The stuff the 160th guys do is truly amazing. Very humble and relatable guys doing amazing things to get the job done.

Hatchet01

Tyler Vargas Andrews, his story is amazing and his positivity through it all is inspiring.

_Seeking the Truth _

My favorite is Lee Strobel. Love his testimony and the way he tells his story.

michael andrew marx

The Victor Marx Episode is my favorite. It Clearly explains how to forgive the Worst of Hursts that haunt an individual...

T Chambers

This isn't going to be popular but I actually really liked the episodes you did with Hunter Biden and Gavin Newsome. I still don't like them, but the brass balls you had to bring them on in the first place and regardless of the bullshido they might have been slinging, you humanized them in a way I don't believe even the left wing legacy media ever could. I probably caught a bit of second hand brain rot, but I thought those were the riskiest, the most surprising and journalistically fascinating. You can't get that content anywhere else. Thank you for that

Buffalo Guy 2148

Don Graves!! I didn’t get to meet either of my grandfathers. I cannot get enough of content from men from that generation

Michael Ryser

Ryan Montgomery. Simply because he cares about protecting the most vulnerable of our population.

Nic C.

Pete Scobell #242 Because it bridges the gap between the hard-core military demographic and the general public. It offers: Vulnerability: A Tier 1 operator speaking openly about crying, fear, and faith. Practical Hope: Real-world resources for TBI and PTSD. Philosophical Depth: Moving beyond "how many enemies did you kill" to "how do you live a meaningful life." I especially liked his quote: "we are not physical beings in a spiritual world, but rather spiritual beings in physical world." Many tears were shed in this episode, as it really hits home as a father.

Chris Brooks

Schlep is my favorite never Roblox and other games like that had a serious problem with predators after hearing the episode i immediately told my wife we are banning the games from the house I listen to every podcast on my long drives for work thanks so much for what yall are doing and god bless you

James Nomad

Pete Blaber with the two episodes was excellent. I enjoyed the candid. Conversation and solid perspective on leadership and our duty to pass on knowledge and experiences. Good and bad …

Kevin J Engel

Travis Haley - he is a very interesting guy, super smart and crazy experiences. When he spoke about the event when clearing homes/buildings for weapon caches, and told the real full story for the first time, well, THAT was an incredibly emotional moment.

Sean Murphy

This is gonna be tough cause there have been so many. But I’m gonna say Victor Marx because that man has had just a phenomenal and a lot of ways of very scary life. He could’ve become something at the world could do without heading not found his truth and his light he took tragedy and became someone very extraordinary

David Montoya

#247 is my favorite, with Brandon from shield ai. Love the defense tech interviews so much. Fascinating how Ai and autonomy is going to change warfare & the economy

Darian Johns

Ep #41 with Kyle Morgan. It was eye opening to see what the stress of being in a tier 1 unit does to someone. He had only recently left Delta and it was different than the interviews you see with Delta guys that have been out for years. His story about the Raddison Blu was also pretty incredible. Glad to see recent videos from him where he is healthy and looking a lot better

Drew Nichols

DJ Shipley is probably my favorite guest. His story and road to recovery I think is important for anyone. The doc on Netflix is incredible. But honestly, I think the most meaningful guests have been Ro Kahna and Gavin Newsome. I'm center left and an atheist. In today's world it is so important for figures like you to reach across and have conversations with people who have different beliefs and opinions. I think we get so lost in dehumanizing people who are different from us that we lose sight of what Nelson Mandela said... "We are more alike than we are unlike, my friends." Thank you Shawn and the SRS Team for all the work you do.

Christine Rodrigues

#285 Father Ripperger. This was the best & my favorite episode by far!!! It's was my favorite episode because of the raw truth that was said; literally speaking to the soul, spiritual, and mind… our full consciousness. So much info in this episode that I've had to listen several times to even really grasp it. Please invite Fr. R back on.

Todd Reynolds

Pete Scobell. I graduated from high school with Pete. Fairview '95! I had heard bits and pieces but it was great to hear his full story... its been many years. Hearing those names and places of growing up in Fairview brought back a lot of memories too. Also really enjoyed Pete Blaber... epic!

Natalie Smith

Sarah Adams because her interview gave insight to the main threats of the United States. Something that we need more information on

Ry

Ryan Montgomery, Episode #56. That man deserves so much credit. He has done a phenomenal job helping put away those sick SOBs. Thank you for having him on.

Ryan Law

Episode#283 AJ microwave weapons. Incredible story of his encounter, and recovery. Bringing these topics to the table really opens your eyes to what’s out there and a incredible story of his recovery

Cacie C

Shelp Nick Brokhausen Ryan Montgomery Matt Bissonnette Schlep, because he is super informative and all parents should be forced to watch. Nick Brokhausen, because his interview and stories absolutely blew me away. That man has been through so much. Ryan Montgomery, because the man is a wealth of technological information. Matt Bissonnette because he deserves to be heard and not silenced by the government.

Carlos

Luis Chaparro, his third time on the show. An unarmed man entering the home of a drug lords son takes massive balls. I think I was sweating while listening to this.

Kord K

Ryan Montgomery and AJ Gentile. Or any of the Delta force guys. I love learning new info that increases depths of knowledge while also making you curious about/for more. And SRS is perfect for that.

Ryan J

Episode #240 Dr. David Fajgenbaum Using AI to find treatments and cures for rare diseases. Suffering from a Diffuse cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis myself, you find yourself on the medicinal back burner. No one gives a shit about a rare unheard of disease unless yourself or a family member has it, because how would anyone know about it. There’s not enough money in treating or curing rare diseases for big pharma. People like Dr. Fajgenbaum bring help and relief to so many people that they will never meet, and will never know how many they truly helped.

Jose Medina

SRS#133 John shrek McPhee

Katie

Another one of my favorite episodes is with Brett Adcock. This interview was insightful on the emerging technology taking place. As someone who lives by herself on a farm, having a robot to help with chores seems like a dream come true. It gets tiring trying to do everything myself, and it’s hard to trust strangers to come in and help. I look forward to what Brett is doing for the future of making life somewhat more manageable. I can’t wait to have a robot fold my clothes.

Chris Lomanto

I really enjoyed the Kyle Morgan episode. His emotions were so raw and real.

Mitch Jensen

The Jim Caviezel #64 about Passion and Sound of Freedom sticks in my head. In so many ways. Such a great convo

Eric Franks

I would still say DJ Shipley although there are so many his is still probably my favorite because I was in a lot of the same areas he was in Iraq so I can picture it and he is a great story teller and I think his story could help a lot of people.

AnthonyS48

Hard to pick one. DJ, Kyle Morgan, Travis Haley. All tough stories

Kristin Skow

The second Ryan Montgomery episode. The work being done to save kids and get information out there is nothing short of heroic. He restores my faith in humanity. I’m a dentist and I see kids at times that I believe are being abused. It’s awful to see and being in a spot where I can’t prove it, it’s exhausting at times.

Nick Bousley

Jeremiah Johnson. What a special way to celebrate Easter! I love how fired up he was to share the good news and share all of the physical evidence. Easter is my favorite holiday and that episode helped me see it in a new way and gave me many new things to think about.

Highlander

Erik Prince #29 (really, all of his interviews) absolutely an amazing, thinking, doing, America! So inspiring! Why: We live in Washington State!...and, I'm a 2nd Amendment loving/teaching, home-educating, Mama(-Bear). An American farm girl can never have too many...and SIG is my Favorite!

Chase Henderson

DJ Shipley episode 15. It was the very first episode. I started out listening to it on a long drive. The interview got so intense that I had to pull over and pull the video up on my phone so I can watch these two pure blooded American warrior converse. I sat in my car on the side of the interstate, staring at my phone mesmerized by the conversation for over an hour. When the interview concluded, I immediately loaded up another episode and continued my drive. Been hooked ever since.

Jake Culp

All of Sara Adam's episodes

harold ande

Its way to hard to say what my favorite episode is they all have there own reasons why I like them. But if I have to say one lets go way back to #47 Declassified

Sigforty

It was probably the John Burke episode on May 20, 2024. That episode opened my eyes to a lot of what is happening with people and it really brought to point all the mentions of Love I was seeing from people in your previous episodes.

Snakebite63

Eddy Penny was my favorite episode. It was raw emotional and real it helped strengthen my Christian faith. Shawn thank you and your team for all the great interviews and information you put out . God bless you and your family 🙏✝️🇺🇲👍

Chance

Episode 282: AJ. I loved this episode for seeing the strength and courage it has taken him to bring his fight back to the U.S. government just to try to get what he and so many others that put their lives on the line everyday for this countries best interest and seeing how horribly they all get treated when something so devastating happens to them and the government turns their backs on them. Total corruption and shows how once these brave men and women have no further use to the government entities that they are just cast aside. It’s complete and total bullshit. God bless the things you are doing Shawn and Godspeed

Kyle Clark

My favorite episode was the episode with Steve Robinson of the maine wire. (1st appearance). My reasoning may be a little selfish but I grew up in the state of maine and as I've grown up I've been watching it get destroyed little by little. Despite all the reporting and attempts to change it l, it seemed like it always fell on def ears. Seeing Steve sharing his stories on your platform really gave me hope that we could turn my home state around and that there are people out there who care. Even if I dont win anything I really want to thank your team for that. It meant so much to me and made me a permanent patriot member.

Tommie Malone

Hunter Biden. Made me see him in a new light. Not all positive, but more human. Thank you for always having a variety, shining light into dark corners, and letting people talk. You’re good people Shawn.

Mauve

Jeremiah Johnston is my favorite guest. Shawn was frozen in his chair. It takes alot to be able to shock Shawn.

Rhett

Chris vansant was my favorite!

Cole

My favorite would be the Ryan Montgomery interviews. As someone who has experienced SA as a young child, it gives me a lot of hope to see that there’s people out there trying help and actually making a difference. That goes to Shawn as well. Thank you for caring and looking out for the defenseless and vulnerable. It means a lot and keep up the good work

Jordan Hamling

The most recent Ryan Montgomery episode is my favorite episode. It showed me the dangers of raising a family in an ever evolving society controlled by technology.

Robert

Dom Raso. Great story of coming back to the faith and the struggles to get there. His dedication to using his talents to develop and great tools and gear. As well as the importance of family.

Kristina Lynn Marcotte

Mike Durant.. Blackhawk Down happened right as I was graduating from high school and I took a huge interest in this story. Events like this, and UBL, helped guide me to the Intel career I hold now. Hearing it in his own words was captivating.

Aaron Dingman

Tom Satterly just a crazy episode full of crazy stories

Blake Boomer

Jeremiah Johnston was awesome!! When I first heard about the Shroud, I had no words. When I heard he was coming on your show, I was very excited and couldn’t wait to listen!

Justin Guglielmo

Very hard to pick a favorite episode you have so many interesting guests with amazing life story’s! Most recently I really enjoyed the Pete Blaber episode. He has had an amazing Career and isn’t afraid to call out the command and control issues as he lived the experience.

Timbo Slice

Tim Kennedy. I mean what a true American hero. Jk jk It was really cool to hear Joe Kents story and perspective.

Andrew C

John Stryker Meyer. Truly incredible and mesmerizing story. From being behind enemy lines being chased by 200 NVA… calling in fast movers and setting claymores under gunfire… to back in the US months later with college kids who have no idea they’re sitting next to a literal tip of the spear badass. Incredible story.

Justin Finney

How can you ask us to pick just one lol! I have so many … Schlep and Ryan Montgomery are at the top for me. The light you have finally brought to protection our kids against predators is unparalleled. Add Sarah Adams and every former Special forces team member you have brought on to that list. Thank you for them all, and for your incredible service to us all.

Dustin Newton

Blake Cook Episode 146. The highs and lows of this episode really made it a great one. Also how Blake found his faith was awesome to hear. Him losing his radio was soo funny, I worked for a PD so I can see how that followed him for a while. As we all know in the service that’s how you get nicknames..

Chris Bidegary

Pete Blaber, so much was unpacked on that show.

Brian Brady

Anything with RYAN MONTGOMERY. It was very eye opening regarding the Roblox games. Immediately took that away from my Daughter. Thank you both!

Kenny K

Pete Blaber, both episodes… he was extremely detailed and his story was phenomenal… Also inspired me to purchase his book the common sense way!!!

red52

Steve Bunting. Hearing his story really hit home for me and I really respect what he's doing for other veterans.

Jacob Suderman

I believe that Ryan Montgomery's first interview was life changing in how it showed the scope of child abuse in this country and practical ways to protect your children. This is a very personal thing to me because I have family members that were ritually abused. Thank you for doing God's work.

Curtis Robey

The Mike Durant episode has got to be my favorite. I could listen to war stories all day. His episode is what had me initially interested and made me subscribe!

Jake

For sure Sarah Adams Preferably that first one but all of them have been awesome and very informative.

jrminhou

Montgomery. For the awareness it brought.

Robert Diggins

#68 Tyler Vargas-Andrews I learned the truth of what happened at Abbey Gate (changed rules of engagement, incompetent leadership at a minimum) and because he had more integrity and was more of a man than most, after losing 2 limbs unnecessarily. Starting a knife company was bold, creative, and inspiring to me. ❤️

Nick B

Episode #276 with Nick Brokhausen . Such a badass and can’t hear for shit. I liked how he would said HUH??? The best part was when he was talking about when he first discovered Kempchi. He had stepped through one of the cabbage patches out DMZ and was like What is that and either he or the Koreans said “ oh fuck my nuts” ! He is a live wire badass .

SunkotaRidgeBaskets

For me, it was a show with acute awareness given to how often our children are sucked in by satanist and pedos and that was Ryan Montgomery! It was a High Alert interview!

Tyler Swindall

Cody Alford episode #34. Between the war efforts, fallejuah, and the mushroom journeys his life story was very captivating and kept your focus drawn into the show.

TravisRay

284 with Michael. The knowledge and guts that young man has to stand up to all what he is plus the way you both helped me see how easy it is for horrible people to hurt kids was mind-blowing. Thank you so much for doing what you are doing along with making the world a better place. You welcome at our table to break bread and burn powder at the pits any day.

Amanda Thompson

Ep 56. Ryan Montgomery. We need more men like him.

jason winegarner

…. so many favorite episodes, but mine is probably “Dynamite” Dick Thompson. as the son of a vietnam special operator who has never discussed those experiences with me, it is interesting to hear about these times and the deployments of this generation. I also liked the interviews with Matt Bissonette and DJ Shipley (and all the recent operators that have come on) as they are enlightening as to the struggles modern operators have transitioning from tier one operational status to civilian life and the disillusionment they feel with command/government decisions. thanks!

Brandon Cook

Schlep episode. I have 3 kids under 10 and cut the electronis out almost 2 years ago. I used that episode to educate friends and neighbors that think there is no real problem with these games snd platforms. Thank you

Justice

Victor Vescovo…. I was amazed by his intellect, his thoughts on how to fight an irregular war especially against an insurgence. Not to mention his diving explorations , his climbing of Everest , and his overall thought process.

Btown

The Tim Tebow episode, I didn’t know the extent of the trafficking and the Pedos that are just in the local cities. Very Eye opening!!

Christina Keyes

Erik Prince, Nick Lavery, Luis Chapparo, Alex Epstein, Rob Oneill....and the list goes on. Love the insight and makes you really look hard into morality, government corruption, societal influence, and how the human perception landscape changes.

BeOnEdge

Episode 252...Matt Bissonnette! Real life superhero, overcomer, humble, smart, loyal, Christian. Getting screwed by the government and its "cake-eaters" and is standing up and fighting back. LOVE THAT!!

Matthew Jones

Pete Blaber. Great storytelling amazing stories. And uncovering the truth

JSA

Episode #15 with DJ Shipley

Robin Hale

Tom Slatterly by far. Learned so much from his experiences. I have been fighting some similar battles . I now have a place to reach out to.

Dr. Disrespect

My favorite episode is the one with DJ Shipley. Introduced me to who DJ was and really helped me get off the depression slump I was in around late 2025. Was not directly the episode itself but I really liked his message and then went over to his Patreon and YouTube channel (GBRS group) and his messages really helped me out.

Amber

Don Graves! I loved that interview so much and I loved that you got his life story before the war; I learned so much. I could tell it was hard during certain points of the interview because he was so old, and I think you did a great job. I truly think that interview and few others you've done with Vietnam vets will be used by historians in the future. I hope you do more or that you get the opportunity to do more of those interviews.

Frigid_iamthedon

Episode with brett adcock was wild, just to see where the futures going, God Bless and keep up the good work

Mark Doubleday

Absolutely loved the interview with Pete Blaber. The insight and 1st hand knowledge he shared about the failings of the current top down and disconnected command and control leadership was really eye opening and distressing. His repeated over and over, almost like a mantrum, that "common sense" and believing your own senses were the cornerstone of real leadership. Great interview!!!

Coley Riley

#214 with Jay Cal This episode has stuck with me. To hear everything he went through and how he’s been treated by his own is crazy to me but I’m happy he was able to get it out there

Mike Williams

All episodes with Lee Strobel. He’s a true man of faith. His books help bring me back to Christ!

Uncanned_peaches

Elizabeth Phillips and Ryan Montgomery. Elizabeth because I love her spreading awareness about what these camps are doing and exposing them for what they are. Ryan for exposing child predators on roblox and other social media. Also him showing how to protect ourselves from hackers. And I also really like when his friend Schlep and all he's doing. Basically if its about how to protect children im always watching. I work at a elementary school as a custodian and the dark side of roblox has showed up here in graffiti in bathrooms. Ive shared what I've learned to the councilor and had made progress to help kids before its too late. Thank you Shawn for all you do!

Jeff

Joe Kent for sure. I love how he talks about things factually without any bias. His commentary on the war in Iran was spot on. He's intelligent and level headed, just wish more people would listen to him.

Dalton Elliott

Ryan Montgomery. Brings an at home reality to many parents with children who play Roblox. My brother use to play all the time but not anymore.

Michael Baker

Shawn on the Joe Rogen show changed my life. They talked about the Yuka app. As a veteran, I listened, made the change in my life to get healthier and was able to have a beautiful baby girl. I have a lot to thank Shawn for.

Gaige

My favorite video was with DJ Shipley, you and him are role models to me, and that episode got me out of a terrible mentality and mindset, and now I focus on bettering myself mentally and physically because of you guys. Always inspiring, thank you!

Ricky Caldwell

My favorite is the Ryan Montgomery interview. He has done so much for the children and scammers for this world. Great interview and great man.

Stephen Casey

Favorite, and the one that hooked me, was with Mike Ritland where he talked about being short a SEAL b/c of the guy that froze; so his team picked up a random intel guy who volunteered to go and man the SAW machine gun through to Baghdad. What a freakin' cool experience that guy had, and for Mike to take him on in that context. I wonder if that has ever happened before or has ever happened again. That would have been a complete fantasy in my Navy experience; when I went to Navy boot camp the armory was closed and we didn't shoot anything. It was lame, like summer camp where you get yelled at. The coolness of that story made me a follower and fan. Then, I got enveloped by the ability of your guests to get this out and get to a place of healing. You've done amazing and it has accelerated your own healing journey. Been praying for you since Mike's podcast. Keep up the great work!

Tim

There are to many to list, if I had to pick a couple of the first shows that really helped to begin my interest in your channel, it was "You don't have to be a dick" & "Social anxiety - 6 tips from a Navy SEAL". Many of your guests have helped many of my personal mental battles. I thank you for that. God Bless.

Travis Coppinger

Ryan Montgomery has my favorite interviews. He is down to earth and extremely knowledgeable and talented in his line of work. He is a humble guy with no pretense and is dedicated to helping stop the most vile and wicked crimes against children. I appreciate Shawn and the team for doing all they can to protect the innocent through knowledge of the avenues that are being used to perpetuate these crimes. Hopefully one day these issues can be stopped. Thanks for your continued service to humanity.

AlphaDadJ

Pete Blaber was unreal! Didn’t even feel like it was 12 hours long. The knowledge this man has along with his leadership style, everyone should give it a listen !

Christopher Pohl

There a so many episode that are outstanding but I’ll go with the most recent, #296, with Meg. What a story of craziness and recovery. She has “done the work” for herself and is now helping others. God speed to her!!

Chuy C

My favorite episode is with the reaper. I loved the raw emotion, story telling and just everything about it made it touch me even harder. Gave me insight on how it really is in war. The mental it can take you to. Things you start to question. I loved it so much

Aeos

Ep32 with Jason. It's one of those experiences in combat that hits hard and reminds you that the enemy always has a say. Really puts you back into those memories when you've been there.

mark p stumpf

Fascinating interview - Father Chad Ripperger

Derrick Ernst

Brain Harpole His bravery in a moment of chaos is admirable beyond words. RIP CK.

Brad Bolerjack

Favorite episode is by far the Ryan Montgomery one and 100% because the education needs to be put out there to help save our kids! Period

J

My favorite episode would have to Ryan Montgomery. As someone who’s always had interest in cyber security it’s really inspiring to see someone who turned their passion into a career. While simultaneously helping those that are most vulnerable, our children!

Lacen Sablan

The Bob Parsons stands out for me. Upmost respect for the Vietnam vets and his condom story was hilarious! Reminds me of my wife’s grandfather who’s is also a Marine Vietnam vet and add so much humor to his stories

Justin Roberts

Ryan Montgomery is one of my favorites. But the few with Jocko, Eddie Penney, they’re all great. I’ve started them over from 001. I feel like I’ve grown so much since listening to Shawn, I want to listen to them all again with a better understanding.

Brian Brady

DJ Shipley, I was a fan of DJ and GBRS but to hear the raw stories and background was awesome. To hear what he went through and how he over came them was inspirational.

Chad Goings

They are all great. My two favorite are with the lyingShrej McGay and Blaber. As a non veteran. I somehow connect with these two.

CodeFuPanda

Fr Dan Reehil #141. Because of him that I came across your show and now your show is the one I tune in to the most.

Bru

Drago the terrorist terrorizer!! The man’s love for America is one of the greatest examples of patriotism I have ever seen. And I was non-stop laughing for 6 hours!

David Spangenberg

Ryan Montgomery. Save these kids. Seems kids now days need protection from almost invisible predators.

Grant Redeker

Too many great ones to count…but the one with Jeremiah Johnston and the shroud really has stuck with me. The helmet of thorns…humiliating, cruel, and gruesome all at the same time.

Rooted in Mercy

Father Ripperger. So much truth and knowledge dropped in that episode

Dan

Many great episodes. My top two for me Tim Tebow and Ryan Montgomery on child trafficking because everyone needs to be aware and engaged to protect kids.

Hunter.F

Episode 285 Father Chad Ripperger - This episode really opened my eyes to the demonic spirits haunting not only America, the world, but also myself. Self reflection is just the start to my journey with faith and I am so thankful for you Shawn, to be a honest voice of the people, and your genuine spirit!

johnyseeds

Joe kent interview. Knowing that we had a veteran in office that stood against the buerocrats and continues to fight for truth with out compromising his integrity was a motivator to keep the fight going for a lot of people

Dan

Ep. 285 Father Chad Rippenger. It was so deep on spiritual warfare. I loved that it talked about corruption both in how are world and the spiritual realm has becoming The corruption of the elites. Its made me more aware and I'm converting to Catholicism because of it.

Dennis

The Sam Reineberg interview. It was so raw with his emotions and Shawn's deep caring of how the young man was doing. The impact on Sam's soul & mind shows what type of long-term effects, events like this can have on a person. Would love to see all the ones involved be in studio with Shawn.

Levi Story

Victor marx, such a true leader and a man of faith that every young man should follow, his teachings,books has taught me so much about being a better man,father and husband as well as how to become a leader to help others

Michael Echaniz

Sarah Adams Episode #81. That was my first ever episode. Sarah's insight is what got me hooked on the show initially. Shawn's dedication to the truth and telling people's stories is what keeps me coming back though.

Timm

John mcphee cause he's the sheriff of bagdad

Desert Fox

All have been amazing Ryan Montgomery because he is just fucking awesome, Ryan Hendrickson because he is the epitome of a Warrior that never quits and Kyle Morgan because he was the best example of what someone is like coming home and true life of selflessness and professionalism.

Ryan

Episode 293 Jeremiah Johnson. It’s hard to say this is my favorite because I love so many episodes. However, selfishly this episode helps deeply as I work on strengthening my faith in Jesus. I feel like Shawn and I are on a similar journey based on all the questions he asks I actually reached out to Shawn last year, suggesting a podcast that really helped me. I really love all of his content, and appreciate his vulnerability. It really shows the true bad ass he is.

Kayleen Garcia

Ryan Montgomery—gives me hope that the younger generation will stand up for what is right!

Kenneth Brito

Mike Benz. It really shook my what I called reality; the norms of what is happening now started years ago. It comes to show how our lives have been a manipulated.

Victor Williams Jr

Favorite episode is the first appearance of Ryan Montgomery. That, and the many episodes that followed, were truly an eye opener and I was already aware of a lot of things, but it cemented the distrust I have of any website and companies who says they’re “protecting children”. And to also find out our very politicians protects them…

Nate Moore

I’d have to say episode 293 with Jeremiah Johnston. That was very fascinating and an encouraging case for Christ! I love all the artifacts he brought and allowed you to hold them and see them. Rare things that very few people can see and feel. Very cool!

TheLavishLightskin

The Michael Lester episodes have been two of my favorite podcasts, possibly ever. Michael stated out loud what I feel a lot of people have been thinking and seeing, with evidence to support everything. I bought two copies (one for myself and one for my dad) of his book “Are We The Bad Guys” immediately after listening to his first appearance. I hope to see him as a recurring guest!

Danny White

Tucker Carlson #256. That was the first time I really understood Tucker's values. I also appreaciated the groundedness of you (always) and Tucker.

Brandon

Original Joe Kent interview was my favorite. Just all around good episode and I became a fan of his after listening

Ashley Rodgers

Ryan Montgomery's episodes are my favorites. They opened my eyes big time on a world that didn’t exist when I was a kid. Made me a much more vigilant parent now that I’m aware!

Ty Lumley

It’s hard to have a favorite episode, but I gotta go with #255. Ryan Montgomery has blown the lid off of cyber crimes and exploitation against children. God bless him.

Alex Short

Episode #285 with Father Chad Ripperger. What an amazing episode! He provides immense insight into the world of Exorcisms and how the Catholic Church operates. The hierarchy of Demons and their prolific infiltration into the physical realm. How our insecurities, wants, and greed are taken advantage of and expanded on with their influence. My favorite part was when Fr. Ripperger made comments about the leadership of the Catholic Church - how he felt that demons had infiltrated the leadership ranks to act against him, and other exorcists, to prevent him from speaking about the secrets he has learned through the exorcisms he has performed.

Matt LeBlanc

Tucker Carlson was fantastic

Bryer13

Kyle morgan episode. Never heard of that attack until that episode. Stand up guy, loved the interview. Also Ryan Montgomerys first episode is what got me on here in the first place. I have 2 kids of my own and could not believe the shit he was disclosing.

Don Jenkins

Ep. 285 with Fr. Ripperger. As an Orthodox Christian, I am well aware of the spiritual warfare. He confirm much of what I have been reading about and learning for quite some time. His detail on the unholy triune was amazing.

Idaho Clay

My favorite show is every show that Shawn speaks from the heart about his disdain for politicians, especially the ones he talks about the congressman from Texas who is not honorable enough to even has his name mentioned here. However, to narrow it to my favorite show, that goes to the second Ryan Montgomery show. Educating parents about the horrors of the Predatory Internet was his goal, and he did exactly that. Ryna armed with details and links that I am able to pass along to my friends and at my kid's school. There is nothing more important than protecting our kids and grandkids.

Brian Busby

Your interview with Tyler Gray. That is the interview that got me started with your show and also helped me put some things into perspective based on his responses and experiences. That episode really helped me out quite a bit.

Nate Johnson

Ed Calderon was a fascinating interview. Totally crazy!

Billy Mac

Trevor Millar episode! This changed my life and many others that I have known. I’ve been advocating strongly for psychedelic treatments ever since. Seeing how life-changing this was for Shawn and his family gave me and so many others tremendous hope!

SHARON Harrington

this was a hard decision so many great interviews and insightful discussions, having to choose one: Victor Marx. He turned pain into a life of service grounded in faith, and still going. Inspirational.

Shep

Fr. Ripperger was by far one of the best episodes ever! Not only for his insights into a world that most people refuse to acknowledge or even exist but for how many people this episode touched. The knowledge that you are able to share with a large audience is a real blessing. Keep up the good fight brother and keep asking questions. The truth is as clear as day when you find it. God Speed. Shep.

West Ramey

Episode 272. While i love Ryan Montgomery because we share the same profession and background, i was moved most by this episode. Im pretty sure im part of the reason you got a letter becauase i went to draw attention to the issue on their Google Ad page. Although, it wasnt hard because years ago people had complained about them so i pointed to both. Coming from childhood neglect and abuse that topic gets me fired up. Id love to help Ryan or do my own thing outside of work. If i could retire tomorrow i would and do only investigative services. Again, sorry about getting the letters, but honestly, fu2k those people. Anyone who abuses children is not human.

Chris

There are many but #263 Steve Bunting. I was also a Fmf corpsman, nothing to the Calibrr of Mr Bunting though. His story especially post service really hit home. I had the honor of meeting Dan Brown who Steve Bunting talks about during the show. I had the honor of competing with him During the 2018 Wounded Warrior Games in Colorado Springs. What Steve is doing now and what he has accomplished post service is awesome and some of his post and stories has helped me with my demons. Thank you for everything you’ve done and continue to do

Ed

Ethan Thornton. At his age, what stands out is not just his intellect but also his ability to clearly articulate complex, interconnected ideas across politics, social evolution, intelligence, warfare, and technology. What I found particularly interesting is his ability to zoom out to a systems-level perspective, understanding how these domains influence and shape one another in real time, and then move back into specific, detailed insights without losing clarity or depth.

Josh Kronick

The one man army D-Boy who used to act retarded at the Taliban checkpoints in Afghanistan to avoid any kind of situation... He's also the one who told Shawn he knew his boss when he worked on the Agency. Why can't I remember his name though.... he was a Billy badass and he did all those solo missions in the GWOT

the plumber dude

Ahmad massoud episode #121. It was very interesting to learn how the people who want. Freedom are much alike.

Jordan

Podcast# 285 Father Chad Ripperger, definitely one of the most eye opening podcasts and shows that we are just in the beginning of some tough times. Great episode and interview by you Shawn as always.

Robert Simmons

Pete Blaber was my favorite episode so far. Awesome dude and great insight into leadership pitfalls.

Drake

#255 Ryan Montgomery - As a new father myself, it's important to understand hidden threats to my family through the internet which has become a requirement to use in today's world. On top of that it was fascinating to hear about the tech out there and how easily someone can hack into Wi-Fi, cars, Bluetooth Etc... This information is something everyone needs to understand and not take lightly.

Katherine Knox

Father Ripperger taught me tons about how to protect myself and my family through protective prayer and knowledge of demonic manifestations.

Sozy

Lee Strobel

Bryan

They are all great. But this last episode 295 with Sam Reineberg. While so many hero’s and American warriors you have had on the show, this was a college student and his commands with no SF training but went to the fire and not away. The way you let Sam tell the story I could feel the raw emotion, when he mentioned taking the eye out, it was like I was sitting in the room listening to him with you. I hope and prayed be that brave in the same situation.

Jason

Tim Tebow… the raw emotion and passion he puts in his mission showed on the episode. It also gave me a boost to take more time to pray.

Olivia

Victor Marx episode.. Changed my life hearing his testimony of how Jesus healed him and worked on his heart.

J Bartlett

srs 51 Chris Vansant. Gotta love naval gunfire

Cooter

So hard to choose by off the top, Tom Satterly. He just opened up and you could tell. No long pauses, just straight talk. Why to enter? Cause I can’t believe I’m a grown man and I “follow” another man. But I’m proud to with your beliefs and style.

Rick Hull

Fr Ripperger was an interesting conversation. As a Catholic, I learned more with that discussion. As a listener, it emboldened me with the spiritual defense of my family and the urgency needed today.

Scott Haddock

Ryan Montgomery and shlep episodes were my favorite there is a huge problem in our society with pedophiles and this really showed me how big it truly is.

John

Fr Ripperger. Honestly. It brought my fam back to the faith.

Eric Macy

Henry Dick Thompson. What a heroic Badass!

Justin Tebaldi

Episode 15 with DJ... I was drawn in the whole time and really appreciated his candour regarding marital struggles and life outside the military.

Robert Cushen

My favorite episode was Tyler Vargas Andrews.His exposure of our botched withdrawal from Afghanistan was very informative.I was also very impressed by this young Marines lack of apparent bitterness after suffering catastrophic injuries was compelling to watch.His composure during a congressional hearing regarding the withdrawal was also amazing to witness.

Caleb Caminiti

Episode #293! Loved all the items he brought for the episode!

David Waggoner

Being from Utah I really enjoyed the conversation with Brandon Fugal. It was fascinating to hear his story of growing up and getting into the real estate world at such a young age. He has accomplished so much in Utah as you can’t drive anywhere with out seeing his name on a building. I’m very interested in The Skinwalker Ranch as I’ve heard stories since I was a kid about that place. It was nice to hear his perspective on things and some of the experiences he has had there. I’ll be honest I was hoping you were going to do a show on some crazy life changing things when you went to visit Utah and I believe the ranch. That would have been fun to add to the mystery. It was overall a great show especially for those with ties to the area. So many other great shows but that was definitely one of my favorites.

Jordan Hallman

The episode with Jeremiah Johnston was my favorite. It came at a time when I was really trying to reassert faith into my life and came at the right time when I felt some doubts creeping. Has definitely been one of my favorite episodes and also the most impactful! Thank you for what you do.

Tim

I really enjoyed the Shawn Ryan Show episode featuring Kyle Morgan because it felt authentic and engaging from start to finish. Kyle shared his experiences in a way that was both raw and thoughtful, going beyond just storytelling to reflect on the lessons behind it. The conversation had a natural flow, with Shawn Ryan asking the right questions at the right moments to draw out deeper insight. Overall, it was a compelling episode that stuck with me because of its honesty and substance.

Thomas Adair aka Mr. Arthur

The first Lee Strobel Episode 152. Hearing him speak about his life experience and his conversion to Christianity via the lens of journalism is a compelling story. The many stories that he shares and very good listening. It’s one of the best podcast episodes on the internet and I have suggested it to many people - watching it more than once which is not something that is typical of a podcast! Thanks Shawn.

Ron Jones

Sara Adam’s - you single handedly blew the lid on major govt corruption

Terry Frank

Episode #279 with Wesley Huff. He did such a great job of articulating the evidence for Christianity!

Dave

Jeremiah Johnston for promoting facts about the resurrection. Pete Blaber for calmly discussing the insanity of many life and death decision makers.

Aaron Adams

Too many to pick from. But to name a few - Fr Dan Rehill, Fr Chad Ripperger, Pete Scovell, Butch Wilmore, Mike Durant, Alan Mack, ...

Thomas Lewis

The episode with Schlep about Roblox. Really opened my eyes and got me paying attention to what my kids are doing and playing on their phones.

Matthew Brooking

DJ Shipley was my favorite episode. I found his story incredible but mostly his recovery was inspiring and something that really needed to hear at the time. I still find his content motivating to this day. So many incredible episodes though it’s hard to pick just one!

Ethan Leib

#199 with Tim Tebow. This hit hard and really opened my eyes to how much we need to watch out for our kids.

Ryan

Pete Blaber hands down! He is a walking history book of the GWOT. I love how the dynamic between Sean and Pete illustrated that the mistakes from the past live on today and we haven’t learned.

Joe

Hands down, the episodes with Ryan Montgomery. As a new-ish parent it has changed how I think of how to keep my kids safe, and I have been able to tell many other parents about the dangers brought up in those episodes.

SG

Tom Holman. Loved hearing about his background. How he became the border czar. Appreciated his heart. There are some many great people episodes. So many rockstar interviews. Thankful for your ability to host many view points. You are an important voice in America today. Thank You

Scourge

#162 Leif is inspiring. The entire episode awesome. Ultimately the dynamic between you two is so uplifting and his story is one so many people could benefit from hearing. It’s definitely one of my favorite things when you have someone on that you are connected with because you open up as much as your guests. Keep up the good work.

Brett King

#295 Samuel Reineberg. I love and appreciate all the high-level intelligence, but Sam brought it down to a layman's level. His honesty and empathy was untouchable. Thank You, Sam and Shawn.

Scott

The Pete Blaber interview, could be the best. What he laid down about all of his experiences and the fiasco of modern Ukraine “the propaganda war” As a current member of the military it all troubles me. Bring him back to talk about the discombobulater!

Ted Farnham

Christian Craighead, that one hit me hard. Who dares wins.

Bradley Nelson

My favorite episode was with Deadmou5. I grew up listening to his work and it was so cool to hear how he got started working with technology in an age where you had to learn it all yourself and experiment with computers. He is also so different than most podcast guests and an amazing story

Lara Berryhill

I have many favorites but the most recent that has stayed with me long after listening is #293- Jeremiah Johnston, I mean just WOW. As a Christian, this one really just speaks to my heart and offers so much hope for me and for every other listener. This is one I will share with anyone I meet! My husband and I have listened to you for years and enjoy your interviews with vets, special ops and more but I personally have really been encouraged and blessed by your spiritual transformation and growth over the years. Keep persevering, you have an amazing purpose, Shawn Ryan!

Gabriel Faiivae

#149 with Sarah Adams being her third time being there she talks the talk and explains everything needed to be known its awesome to watch yalls convo on everything going on

KJ

Tucker Carlson. You guys always have the best conversations 🖤

Gregory Lawton

#259 Mike Durant - great interview, excellent guest

Amanda Bernard

This is a close call… but I think as a mother Ryan Montgomery ,interview #56 really hit home. But what spoke above and beyond the content was your regard and love for Ryan and his mission. Keep shining the light, God bless you.

Robert

Jim Caviezel interview. Totally inspiring. His dedication to following what is really important than what is easy. From his ordeal filming The Passion to showing the extent of children trafficking by doing Sound of Freedom. Bravery, conviction, sacrifice. Inspiring!

Big Jeremiah

Ryan Montgomery got me to join Patreon and all this child stuff makes me so much more upset. Keep it up.

Mamadawn91

Schlep #284 Presented so much information, I was able to use this and speaking with my kids and grandkids and others. Beyond thankful.

William Burns

I love the episodes with Sarah Adams. Her insight and knowledge is great

Darlene

DJ Shipley It was such a great interview. Showing all the experiences in the war, his experience coming home. All the tribulation with his marriage. And then the psychedelic experience which changes people's lives for so much better and needs to be legalized in the US. There are so many great interviews that stick out in different aspects. But I think this one was very honest and impactful

Lexi

Toss up between the one USMC Major James Capers, Tom Satterly . Yo always have great guest!

Justanother11B

DJ Shipley. To hear him talk about his demons as a man and husband, where they came from and how he’s overcome them gave me great insight to my own issues as a veteran and how I can be better.

TxLeftridge

Episode 245 Trae Stephens Because I think Anduril is going to save a hell lot of lives if the deterrence alone doesn’t work!

Allen Saxton

The Elizabeth Phillips interview and resulting lawsuits brought against Shawn. So many things. How she took the pain and sadness of loosing her brother and turned it into so much good. Who knows how many children she’s saved because of what she does. The raw emotion of the interview was phenomenal, so heartbreaking and maddening at the same time. How she hasn’t just made the perpetrators/pedophiles unalive is beyond me. I cried hearing about her brother. I think about that interview on a regular basis. It’s why I continued my membership.

Jason M Smith

#77 Tom Satterly. His story broke my heart, I can't believe our government would treat him so poorly.

will

Shelp helping expose pedos on the kids platforms, because knowledge is our best defense as parents

Bradley reeves

Hands down the Dj episode. Listen to it a few times a month when I’m feeling down. If he can come back from his darkest moments why can’t I.

A Williams

Pete Blaber, but its hard to pick one. I have listened to almost all of them several times. If my phone is with me there is always a Shawn Ryan podcast playing. Keep up the fantastic work you all are doing. You make me proud to be a fellow Tennessean.

Joshua

#043 Eddie Penney As a combat vet (support role/mos) the whole episode hit me hard. The emotional tolls of combat discussion impacted me in so many ways. No one is invincible. Seeking help does not come from a position of weakness, but rather strength. Recently, I got some medical news that may force a separation from the military after 10 years. Cannot say I am not sad and distraught. I always believed in what I was doing and wanted to give it my all ‘till retirement. So I felt identified by the identity crisis conversation. His talk about finding faith in God and tools to for growth like the hot wash mindset have been inspiring and helpful. Seeing him on social media and witnessing his progress has provided me with hope that everything will be alright. Just trust in God and put the work in.

Marshallcamera67

Samuel Reineburg That kid is what all the newest generation should be! Awesome kid!

Brooks

Dr. Jeremiah Johnston. I am a believer of Jesus Christ (I'm not perfect in any kind of way), but this episode broke my heart. I know the crucifixion story of Jesus but to hear just how evil and torturous the events were made me break and magnified one thing for me...that the perfect Lamb of God, the one and only Son of God, was beaten and tortured in a way that He did not deserve. It should have been my hands and feet that were pierced. It should have been my head that was pierced by thorns and my side pierced, yet, God loves me so much that He didn't want me to endure the cross...He wanted to take all my sin and pain to the cross with Him so that one day, I can be with Him in paradise.

Eric Olsen

DJ Shipley was awesome and my favorite

Ted

This is like choosing your favorite child but if I had to select. Top 5 for me would be Joe Kent, Tom Satterly, DJ Shipley, Leif Babin and Brad Geary. If I had to narrow it to #1, think I’d have to go with Brad Geary interview #1.

Mandy Beinke

Being a new listener. Meg Applegate was an eye opener for sure. I grew up not understanding these camps and was always thinking it was the right thing to now realise I was brainwashed by 60 minutes who aired how great these camps were for teenagers. Oh how wrong. Ive since learn mainstream media brainwashes NCP's and why i choose not to have a TV in my house. My media is selected and informative not there to brainwash me.

Joesuan Bonet

I had the opportunity to work with Lee Strobel on his film The Case for Miracles. My wife previously managed his social media and advertising campaigns, which gave us direct exposure to that space. That experience led me to start listening to Shawn Ryan around Christmas, and I ultimately joined his Patreon to support someone actively advocating for the protection of children. After watching the episode featuring Ryan Montgomery, it shifted my perspective. Since then, I’ve developed a strong desire to contribute to a nonprofit mission. As the owner of a video production company, I want to leverage storytelling to bring awareness, impact, and real change to causes that matter.

SB

Pete Blaber for sure! I served in the dutch army and recognized a lot when he was talking about the Balkans and the Middle East. I'm sure we met the same Russian platoon in Kosovo😂. I'd love to win the Sig but in the Netherlands we are not allowed to own one. So i wish the winner a lot of fun!!! Greetz from the Netherlands👍🏻

Lisa

#284 with Schlep. This episode honestly stuck with me (and I tell everyyyyone to listen to it). Hearing his story and how young he was when everything started is just heartbreaking, but also eye-opening as a parent. The way he explained how predators operate through online games like Roblox using chat features, trust-building, and manipulation really made me realize how much is happening that most parents don’t see. What hit me the most is how easily it can happen and how long it can go unnoticed. It’s not always obvious, and that’s what makes it so dangerous. As a single mom, I already try to keep really open communication with my kids, but this pushed me even more to be intentional about those conversations. Not just about “stranger danger,” but about how people actually communicate and manipulate online. It’s scary, but also empowering in a way, because knowledge is what helps us protect them. This episode wasn’t just emotional, it was educational, and I genuinely think every parent needs to hear it.

Hawkeye

Hands Down Ryan Montgomery. From cool tech to saving kids. He’s truly an American hero who works in the shadows 🇺🇸 He also has no care for fame, money or a thank you. He is an inspiration to many to stop evil in its tracks for the simple fact that it’s what’s right 🙏🏻

Ryan R

Christian Craighead because he has an almost incredible story; one that needs to be told but one that the current British government doesn't want to be told.

Dan

Mike Durant Black Hawk Down, the untold story

Eric Stromme

Father Ripperger was great. Really opened my eyes to spiritual warfare as it got me thinking about the motives of people, such as politicians, and the driving forces behind their decisions. Need to be on guard against demonic forces.

Holly Ford

Don Graves - WW2 fire thrower. How can you not adore and respect him. A national treasure! That’s the episode that hooked me.

Andrew

Robloxs episode episode exposing the pedophilia going on on that platform and what it uploads on its platform. Not least of all the legal cases behind the seens.

A. Glenn

Eddie Penney episode 43 That was medically, retired from the service, and after watching this, it helped me renew my faith with God and realize that to overcome what you feel as an overbearing weight and defeat it’s not the end of the world and that true strength is looking into face and getting yourself help is the true strength. God family country. Thank you for all that you do with the show

Tyler

Pete Blaber! It’s unfortunate we can’t keep good leaders like him in the DOW purely to mentor other leaders!

SmokyMtnBubba

Seetharaman. Inspiring story overcoming struggle, realizing spiritual growth, succeeding at the highest levels in military and business, and great insight into the modern landscape of technology/AI and its unique and interesting applications. Covers all the bases for me. Loved it!

Ethan Frontone

Episode #257 with Jocko was a fav of mine. Always cool to hear the side of someone’s story and leadership that so many have mentioned throughout the years

Brad Sims

#284 Schlep. When he started telling everybody about roadblocks, which my kids used to play, and Minecraft, which he also used to play, I used to tell him not to use any voice chat or chat to communicate with anybody other than cousins and "real life" friends. Hearing what blind people are on with this stuff is eye-opening and sickening. I get so pissed when I hear these things happen to kids, from the predators. A father's supreme duty (my opinion, at least) is to protect their children, and you hear this stuff and know the parents died a little inside when they found out, never mind the lifetime of therapy and support the victims may need. Getting this info out there will save lives in many ways.

Fill C

DJ Shipley

Eric Sawyer

Pete Blaber stands out as a recent show, but all your guests are incredible. I'm grateful your show is able to provide the platform to get the facts and truth out to the public. I pray you will continue to have amazing guests and experts on to shine the light into the darkness we have in this great country.

Ryan

Episode 69 with Don Graves. I loved hearing Don tell his story and recall how his generation had a deep reverence for military service and our country as a whole.

James Neighbor

Episode #255 with Ryan Montgomery. The best episode on helping make others aware of what they are trying to do to children. Also in cybersecurity and this episode hit it right in the spot everyone must hear!

Sam

Tyler Vargas- I think that story of what happened to him was so preventable. I can’t believe he survived and is thriving.

Alana

Sarah Adams, episodes 81, 149 and 280. Also episode 116 with Ahmad Massoud.I think both guests are trying to open the eyes of the American people to the real world threat we face. I also appreciate that Sarah Adams has traveled all over the country trying to educate our police departments on the up coming threats to our Nation. Thank you Shawn for giving these guests a platform to get the word out! 🇺🇸😊

Leland King

So hard to nail down one episode, Father Ripperger, and all the Lee strobel episodes are great. I really like these because they answer a lot of questions that I have that are hard to approach a pastor with. I also really enjoy these veteran based interviews like Cody Alford, DJ , etc. I like these because it not only gives you a first hand look at what happened overseas, but it also lets us civilians understand better the emotions and struggles guys come home with and where they come from.

John

Butch from MACV-SOG…..the stories about his missions were over the top. No one in SOF has those kind of balls.

Caleb Adams

#248 Schlep it is information EVERYONE NEED TO KNOW

Bobby Locklear

Dr. Jeremiah Johnson and Lee Strobel. Listening to how these guys give absolute proof of Jesus and exactly what he endured always super charges my faith and these guys present the information in such a way that is so easy to understand!

Dorene King

Captain Brad Geary. Shawn's interview allowed Captain Geary to kick in the door to expose the truth. Hell Week didn't kill Kyle Mullen. The drugs found in his trunk did. Shame on the Navy brass leadership for their weak defense of Captain Geary. Thank God he was exonerated. YNC(Ret)

John Browning

Episode 11 blackwater massacre. Enjoyed learning their perspective of what happened and why vs what was put out in the media

Jason Hutchens

DJ Shipley & Chris VanSant. DJ’s storytelling was masterful and Chris was very well spoken and relatable due to his Army career

matt S

A lot of great interviews. I’ll go with the current episode I’m working through and that’s #294 Pete Blaber.

Mike

Captain Geary episodes. He was hung out to dry so badly by the higher ups all the way to the admiral. I hear he now has a position at the pentagon but they would have broke a lesser man. How do the head sheds that treat our warriors like this ever face responsibility?

Josh King

Pete Scobell listen to music I never would have heard before.

Jeffery Manzer

Joe Kent…it exposed some insight on current admin function.

David Pace

Skin walker ranch guy. All great stuff. My number 1 podcast. Hard to pick a favorite

John Hill

My favorite episode is with Elizabeth Phillips because I am a victim of the predator Pete Newman as well and it made me feel like Im not alone and finally truth will prevail. Thank you Shawn for the work you're doing to reveal truth and protect children. God bless you sir.

Jacob IV

#69 Don Grave was definitely my favorite. There was a tremendous amount of history in that episode.

Lilyanne Kelly

I started watching because of the Ryan Montgomery episode, but recently watched the one with Oz Pearlman and i was right there with you with my jaw on the floor!

Maranda Smith

Tyler Vargas-Andrews! It really showed the depth and damage of what was done at Abbey Gate!

Wayne

I really enjoyed episode 283 with Schlep. What a courageous young man to be taking on the evils that exist in the gaming industry. I heard yesterday that state of Nevada has settled a large lawsuit with Roblox, so hopefully the good work of this platform and people like Schlep are finally turning the tide!! Let’s Go!!

Matthew Van Oenen Paauw

Blackwater/Raven 23 episodes were unreal, however if I had one, just one, to listen to again, it would be the one that made me go OMFGD was #77 with Command SGT Major (R), Tom Satterly. Talk about a story about being on polar opposites of the emotional spectrum on how to do what he did but couldn't feel emotions bc it was seen as weak. Then his journey of operating covert ended at retirement, and the structure and discipline of being elite became an overt mental health battle that almost ended what 25 years of a Tier 1 operator couldn't. I am 3226 days clean and sober today. I have been to hell and back, but CSM Satterly has a story that is truly one hold with the utmost respect. If he could survive what he did, then there is hope for all of us.

Tyler Wilson

My favorite episode was Father Ripperger. Not because it was the loudest or most cinematic, but because it hit in a completely different way. A lot of episodes sharpen your awareness of the world outside you. That one sharpened your awareness of the war inside you. It pulled the conversation above politics, above headlines, above survival, and into discipline, evil, temptation, and what it actually means to stand firm. It felt less like content and more like a gut check.

Jerry

#284 DJ Shipley, it was eye opening.

Jamie Renner

All episodes featuring those who served on the front lines. For me, these episodes have been powerful doses of perspective- what hardship is, what it isn’t, and what matters.

Minx493

# 255 & #56 Ryan Montgomery! Bringing to light the issues with Roblox, child sex abuse and that goes into that. Tough to pick 'just one' - you have so many to choose from that are my 'next top episode'!

Jorge Viso

Thompson and the SOG stories were great. Interesting to learn how things were accomplished back in the day. Humility and guts, quite the combo.

Nick B

Episode 276 when Nick Brokhausen said “do you need to throw up” and you were reading Your notes that guy is a hoot a total badass with the best sense of humor still . Freakin LEGEND

Reed M

#286 with Ethan. There’s just something inspiring about a young genius.

Wes Rincker

The MD episode. Was in Somalia as well.

JAMES CUTBURTH

My favorite Vigilance Elite video is: Spec Ops Dude's Favorite Combat Rifle Zero This short, practical video explains Shawn’s recommended 36-yard zero for combat rifles (typically AR-15 platforms with holographic or red-dot sights). It demonstrates how this zero provides a flat trajectory and minimal holdover adjustments from close range (e.g., 25 yards) out to 300 yards, making it highly effective for real-world tactical scenarios. My other notable favs among Vigilance Elite videos with high views include “Do Spec Ops Dudes EDC Carry 1 in the Pipe?” (around 1.8 million views in some historical snapshots) and various “Story Time” segments featuring operators like Marcus Luttrell. However, the rifle zero video consistently ranks among the top in pure Vigilance Elite originals.

Matt Ritchie

Pete Blaber or Nick Brokhausen. Crazy stories so hard to pick just one episode

Wes Rincker

MD. The detailed accounts that MD shared about all his missions.

Mark

Favorite episode was Fr. Ripperger. It made clear how much of a impact evil can have in our lives daily. Also brought to light the origin of those impacts that I wasn't previously aware of.

Derrick Hoog

DJ Shipley. Cemented my profound respect of our military and Shawn's ability to guide amazing storytelling.

Zackary, Tucson

Mike Glover.. Got me hooked on the podcast.

Dustin Shue

DJ Shipley was my favorite

CinBadAssShrink

There are soooo many including all with Lee Strobel. I am still struck by the interview with the Navy SEAL who was hurt by the therapist and was trans!!! And with that said- the interview with Jeremiah Johnston re The Shroud of Turin!!!!!!! My favorite- it is/was life-changing- has added another dimension to my commitment to Christ. That is it! Many many thanks!!!!!!

Michael Garza

Mike Ritland, as I appreciate how both of you guys looks at subjects

RICHARD MARTIN

Father Rippenberg. Thank you for your work!

Marshallcamera67

Brett Adcock was a good one. His robot was probably the best episode I think so far

Jeremy Howard

Favorite Episode: John Rich - ep 232 followed shortly by AJ Gentile - ep 229

Steven G

Episode #95 Joe McMoneagle. I remember as a child, my mom had a friend named Lisa who was apparently "psychic". She claimed she could see and talk to spirits which I thought she was crazy. The thing that got me is I remember my older brother telling me how he lost his wallet back in the day and explained how when he explained everything to Lisa, she told him to check a certain location. My brother was in denial and said there is no way, but sure shit, there was his wallet. Hearing his story along with other stuff my mom would tell me about Lisa then finding Joe talk about remote viewing and the capabilities we humans have gave me goosebumps. Still do to this day. Hope we get to see more guests talk about remote viewing in the future! Honorable mentions are all of the MACV-SOG warriors that had been interviewed. Legendary story tellers!!

Daniel McCaffrey

#252 with Matt Bissonnette. Amazing dude and story. I believe we all can relate to many of these operators and gives us hope when times get tough.

ArrrGarr

Oz Pearlman. He was collecting data during the whole show and when he got everything correct at the end made me laugh. Very entertaining episode.

Marty

Episode 241, Ruslan KD, it was very encouraging to hear his story and what he had to endure, and against all odds when life turned out one way. Jesus saves him, restores, and empowers him to encourage and build those around him. Really loved how He loves Jesus' church and shares how we need people around us to become the men and women we are to be. Solid episode.

John Flynn

Anytime Sarah is on, she brings the best most important real time info and sig optics are the best so enter.

Clayton D. Haisley

Episode 204, where you interviewed Larry Vickers. The whole episode just exemplifies why I enjoy listening to the show.

David

Fr, Chad Ripperger. Because he spoke a lot about what we should be doing to protect ourselves spiritually and how to prepare. And the guy carries a gun and is probably the leading exorcist in this country! Great interview!

Kyle Asherbraner

Episode 255 and episode 284! I watch them episodes and it makes me absolutely blown away that this is going on and is being allowed. I have a daughter and to think this is even possible. I am thankful for both of them and many others trying to put a stop to the low life that graces this earth.

Jerry Parker

Pete Blader He knows how to explain the process

Matt Knueven

It is hard to pick just one, but my favorite is Nick Irving. Mr Reaper, hearing his hardcore stories and how he walked the audience through them was outstanding. Also, hearing about his views on forgiveness and prophecy. He seems like a real chill, down to earth dude.

Gideon Williams

Tom Satterly is definitely among my favorites. His story is so impactful. The episode with Jared Hudson has also had a huge impact on my life and mindset. He is a true patriot and man of God. Thank you shawn for what you do. I've been listening to you on Spotify for 3+years and your podcast continues to get better and better. You have had a huge impact on my life and the lives of other people I know.

Brady Kingsbury

The Chris Bledsoe episode is one of my favorites - his storytelling still gives me chills!

Matt Diaz

Jeremiah Johnstons scientific approach to the Shroud and his faith is incredible. Pete Blaber was also a favorite. That dude is a leadership expert. Matt Bissonettes life stroy was incredible. Father Rippegurs insights into exorcism and spiritual warfare were without a doubt essential for any person of faith. I took my kids off Roblox after the hacker episode aired. The Kanakuk episode had my blood boiling for those poor kids and Elizabeths brother and family. So many good interviews and perspectives, but anytime Shawn gets fired up at the poor leadership in the government or the modern church, I'm 100% in.

Dan Corrow

DJ Shipley... Smart dude and didn't hold anything back.

Megan W

Don Graves is my top favorite but also love the interviews with Lee Strobel! As a granddaughter of a ww2 vet and a fellow detroiter, I loved the Don Graves Interview and have shared it with many family members ans friends. That interview is what made me a big fan of yours and got me hooked!

qtheceramics

Lee stroble it was a great interview of a great person

Carl

#209

Ethan

Man Shawn, it’s next to near impossible to pick a favorite, there’s so many. Jay Cal, Dj Shipley, Brad Geary, Jim Caviezel, ahh so many. But if I had to pick, it would probably be one of the latest ones, Pete Blaber. He is such an amazing leader. His knowledge exponentially transposes over into the civilian world in everyday life.

Eric Vinzant

episode 148 with Alan Mack. Loved the story telling and it was more captivating because my during my transition from service I earned my ratings for helicopter pilot.

Jesse P

Mike Glover. You and him were a few of the people that influenced me to join the military a few years back.

Adam Davis

Pete Blaber was amazing but Chad Robicheaux was the first time I saw the podcast and it really resonated with me so I have to go with that one plus hes from close to where im from!

Jon Stuckey

Joe Kent episode. His analysis on Iran and Israel was spot on.

Dustin

I think I have actually watched this episode 3 times now... and each time, it still shocks me at the lack of anything remotely close to competence from our own government (even though I have felt this way for years now)... then to cover it all up. What the F*ck.

David Britt

#278 with Wes Huff. Where history and faith intersect is awesome to listen to. #276 Nick Brokhausen - his books are incredible so I was glad to see him get some notoriety from a top tier opdcast

Sethado

#192 with John Burke and Lee Strobel since they offered proof of Jesus’ resurrection!

Josh Choplin

I enjoyed the Tucker Carlson episode. Nice to hear both voices together that I respect. Your insight and courage is greatly appreciated.

SB

Jocko Willink. Jocko has put himself out there for us who want to get better in leadership and has basically cost free leadership training equipping anyone with 1-1 weekly support. I really appreciated the story in episode #257 the reality of recalling fallen hero’s stories and how dealing with those emotions as a man can be difficult and most importantly necessary. It signifies a real human experience and I believe we need more people being real about their experiences.

Mike

Dale Hanson, SRS 260. Fantastic description of his work at MACV-SOG and a testament to human will and survival.

Kandi Ramsey

#255 with Ryan Montgomery. It was such a eye opening interview for parents and anyone who cares about the welfare of our children. With someone who has no clue about video games, it was shocking that Roblox is allowed to still be in existence. I truly appreciate your efforts to bring these issues to light. I have been able to share this with parents who have now stopped allowing their children to play this game. Thank you

Beau Taylor

#149 with Sarah Adams. Sarah always delivers shocking information regarding the corruption and potential threats to our country. She is one of my favorite guests and the watch floor is awesome!

Matt Winn

This years Easter episode with Jeremiah Johnston was awesome. Glad there is someone out there with the attitude and determination to find the truth. Hopefully some day we can get a first person look at the ark on mount ararat??

michael smith

Episode with Eddie Penney. Great lessons learned before, during, and after his military career and the meaning of being a spiritual warrior.

Michael Liffner

The Jocko willink episode is by far my favorite, with the Pete Blaber one being a distant second. The greatest resource we have as humans is leadership. The lessons they give on leadership, community based decision making, and command presence are essential for any business/trade; sadly though, there is currently a dearth of these concepts in society. Also I love my Sig Romeo Need a new rifle scope and couldn’t mind a dot for my P320

Richard Bittleston

Definitely Jeremiah Johnston. Jesus is the name above all names and bringing secular science to prove scripture was the most powerful episode yet!

Gathot

285 with father Chad ripperger. I believe in and love Jesus Christ; It’s so fascinating to hear the stories he had. I disagree with the idea of intercession for praying to Jesus but that doesn’t invalidate his stance on the power of our Lord over the devil. Matthew 7:22-23

Jeremiah Boom

Father Ripperger. The way he communicates his experiences and faith resonates with me. Strengthens my faith and reinforces that there is more that we can see or explain.

gbforge

I really enjoyed Butch Wilmore #287. Great show and insights.

Terry

Mine would be the one with Schlep and Ryan Montgomery as they are trying to do their best to help kids in this jack up world we live in.

Chris

It’s so hard to pick a favorite episode when every single one of them opened my eyes to something I didn’t know. From the stories about the military, interviews with politicians, Ryan Montgomery, and all the horrible stuff going on in this country that has to do with children, to the interviews with an exorcist and religious leaders. Every single episode has taught me something. I don’t know that I can’t pick out just one.

Stran

Cody Alford. I was on the edge of ending it all and that episode put my whole world in a different light and gave me the pause that I needed to reflect on the good in my life and gave me a totally new outlook on life. After that episode I got the help I needed and got my thinking straight and it has been a long journey but truly my life is a complete 180 from where it was.

Julie

Your interview with Luis Elizondo was one of the most compelling interviews on UFOs. He testified on the hill, gave interviews on multiple networks and his story has not changed. He managed a Special Access Program and had the credentials to back up his claim. His claim that UFOs are a National Security & Safety issue are alarming.

C. Martin

Joe Kent's episode because it gives a truthful outlook into everything that is going on with today's politics and the conflicts in the middle east.

Haksaw Swager

Legend - 107. Gave a lot of insight about what we have been dealing with abroad and what should be happening today.

Stuart Rummell

First interview with Erik Prince (ep 76). His analysis and breakdown of world events and history amazes me everytime you talk to him. But that first interview was the first time I was exposed to him outside of the he is evil media narrative after blackwater.

Mek

One of many best's is Jeremiah Johnston and Ryan Montgomery - Keeping the faith and discerning the real deal - Keep on, Keeping it on - SRS

Marcus Jackson

I prefer the episodes with SOF guys coming on documenting history and sharing their stories. If I had to choose a favorite it would be Tom Satterly then DJ Shipley.

James McNelley

Episode 24 with Katie of course! (I love every single one of them) * This was the episode where I realized this was more than a podcast.

Sheena Proctor

I appreciate all of your episodes, but the one that hit home and really opened my eyes, and I believe a lot of others, was Elizabeth Phillips' interview. The raw truth, as hard as it is to hear, must be discussed because it has been happening right in front of us for decades. It is time now more than ever to unify ourselves against those disgusting, cannibal, pedophile mass murderers of innocence, whether it be physically, emotionally, or both; we are all fighting this war. It takes a village to take action, and Shawn, you are a great leader in this cause of protecting the innocent. Episode #272 Among Many More! :)

Fam

Ryan Montgomery first episode. It's why I went into law enforcement

Ryan

Ryan Montgomery #255. He opened my eyes two things I didn’t know existed. This has helped me and many other families protect their children.

Cherizona

Ryan Montgomery, eye opening! I work heavily with it and I still had no idea of many of the things that he told us as well as the things I learned as a parent.

Ian Titus

Both episodes with Joe Kent but also have to shout out the marathon with Pete Blaber as a behind the scenes look of how soldiers rise to the occasion even when leadership constrains them. The episodes with Joe Kent are a great example of the type of people we need in political positions but unfortunately, the integrity those like him have are the exact reasons that keep them out. I don't know what happens to people like Patel and Hegseth who come on the show portraying their righteousness only to fall in line. Always makes me think they get in with the best of intentions then when they go to work, they realize their life or the lives of family members are at risk of "accidents" as they try to change the system. Would truly be great if someone figured out how to stop the insanity...I'm not hopeful but at least there are those like Kent who do their part to expose a bit of what's really going on. I still hold out hope that at some point, our nation realizes, as citizens, the extent that we are being played on too many levels to count.

Scott Duplisea

#252 I love to hear the inside story of those who were there, and how things operate behind the scenes. But really, we have to choose one?!

James Rogers

Episode #43 Eddie Penney. Brought me back to my faith and life reasoning

Wes O'Rourke

For me it’s been Mr Tom Satterly 3 part serious. I watched that movie over and over as a kid. To hear his story and how it affected him, his family life. Trying to cage the “crawler” away. Listening to him talk about his relationship with his son really made me see everything in a new light. Keep doing what you’re doing Shawn. It’s amazing some of the hidden truths that get exposed. Your Roblox investigation were a few great episodes as well!

Don Traister

I would have to say Randall Carlson. That sort of information really helps with understanding Genesis and the origin of humanity.

Eric Harden

Father Ripperger episode

Daniel Fraire

Episode 279 with Wes Huff. It was just honest and raw. I love that you felt comfortable sharing so much of your life with Wes, and the feelings you had about your own theology.

Damion Tipton

It has to #294 Pete Blaber. Listening to the details of how Roberts Ridge went down and the death of Pat Tillman. How command wants to take control of a battle from a distance with no advice from ground commanders. Plus the truth behind the Ukraine (Propaganda) War

Nathaniel Schrader

Dj Shipley episode, learned so much about embracing the suck and just moving forward no matter what’s in front of you

Jimmy Valentino

Although it's hard to pick just one favorite episode, I have to pick episode 295: Samuel Reineberg. God bless him, his colonel, and all the other victims of that senseless violence. This episode instilled in me and reinforced the confidence I have in all the young Americans. This show and that episode and that individual reminded me how proud I am to be an American.

americangunslinger 24/7

Mike Glover, DJ Shipley, Kyle Morgan, Sarah Adams, Eddie Penny, Cody Alford, and many others are my favorites, but #293, Dr. Jeremiah J. Johnston, stands out because he has provided more evidence and scientific backing for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Keith

SRS #255 with Ryan Montgomery was likely the most impactful for me. I had no idea what was going on in that world. I didn't "enjoy" hearing about the pure Evil that exists online, but i needed to hear it. Ryan is doing God's work and you are helping him, Shawn. But, I'll say I "enjoyed" SRS #199 with Tim Tebow more. His life story, his honest, and open dialog with you was amazing to watch and hear. He is using the platform he has to glorify God and help others. A lesson for us all, whether "rich & famous" or not.

Chris Crane

Jim Caviezal. The depth of his faith is so inspiring. Also gave us the courage to watch the Sound of Freedom. Thank You 🙏

Kody

DJ shipley was the best! It was my first episode I heard and loved it as a veteran myself I haven't looked back

Michael Gee

One of my favorites has to be Shawn’s interview with CIA Targeter Sarah "Superbad" Adams (all of them, but Episode #149 in particular). It was the first episode I watched with her in it and she hooked me immediately with her no-BS, behind the curtain look at global security. Sarah’s expertise is legendary, and Shawn’s ability to draw out such detailed, high-stakes narratives makes this an essential watch for anyone who wants to understand the world as it truly is. There's so much going on behind the scenes that we just can't hear anywhere else.

Robert Garside

#54 - this opened my eyes to what was actually happening online and with my kids playing Roblox at the time it prompted my wife and I to have a conversation with them about safety and if anything had happened to them. It also instigated a conversation with my ex wife, which is extremely hard to do, I even shared the episode with her.

Jeff Fueston

I can't pick just one episode but I really enjoy hearing alternative views like Michael Lester!

Vanessa campione

Best episode was fr rippenger and what is wrong with our world

brady clemmensen

Episode 294 with Pete Blaber. The knowledge transfer on leadership and problem solving was something I desperately needed. Both of you were great in that one.

Kody

The new pete blaber episodes were awesome too. I love the long form conversation. Learned that there actually are good leaders out there that don't give a shit about promotions.

Emmett Smith

SRS #11. This was one of the first interviews of yours I watched and seeing the Blackwater guys be able to tell their side of the story was really interesting to me. I had an idea of what happened with the “massacre” in my mind for so long based on News pieces that it really opened my eyes. It’s also what made me stick around!

Fletch Schubert

Commenting to enter. Pete’s podcast was good and long!!! :)

Stevie Carr

#242 with Pete scobell! I found that episode to be impactful due to his authenticity and how raw he was with his emotions throughout the episode. I would tie that episode with #83 with victor marx. It was a truly upsetting but inspiring episode to hear about the tragedies that occurred to him with his father and how we was able to overcome the trauma that he was subjected to.

Tripoxous

Hard to pin point one but all of the Ryan Montgomery episodes. It’s empowering to see someone so dedicated to using a skill like hacking for good, catching disgusting predators and working endlessly to try to bring light to a dark topic.

Jonathan Nuckolls

Michael Lester. He brought voice to some opinions I’ve long held.

Joel Smith

Dr Jeremiah Johnston. His knowledge of Scripture and history encourages my faith.

Point Clear Mystic

Ep 285- Fr Ripperger because spiritual warfare is real!

Lucas Cameron

I would have to say Don Graves. I’m 37 and these older true American bad asses were a different breed of humans, better humans than we have today it seems like. A time without social media and the technology we have today. I’ve heard my parents say even in their day, we had real freedom back then. I’m jealous.

Rutt Row

Many favorites, but Sarah's initial appearance has to rank as a current favorite. All that being said, I have a gut feeling that my most favorite hasn't aired yet.

Brett

Gotta be #284 Schlep exposing these pedophiles is what we all need!!!

Taylor Robinson

Jocko’s episode for me! That man knows how to motivate! Was lucky enough to meet and workout in a Walmart parking lot at 4:34 in the morning in Arkansas to celebrate the launch of his products in Walmart. Embraced the suck for sure!

Brian Rossman

I found the Ryan Montgomery episode on Roblox and 764 to be eye opening. I had heard about Roblox being an unsafe platform for kids but had no idea how pervasive predators are on that platform.

JR Menzies

This feels like a bit of a cop out answer but my favorite episode is #56 with Ryan Montgomery. I had no idea that modern hackers have access to that kind of technology nor their capabilities. Also the fact that he broke the story on some of the online pedophile rings was something everyone needed to hear.

James Schuenemann

Episode 764 with Ryan. Opened my eyes how our kids are under constant attack from predators and how I need to be extremely active in their day to day.

jeremy crosby

I have numerous favorites, The Pete Blaber episode was phenomial, another of my favorites was the Palmer Lucky interview, Isiah Taylor , and lastly Jocko Willink. Keep up the great work.

Carlos Toro

Between Erik Prince and when you provided the platform for the 4 BlackWater guys victim of the system.

Tyler Garnett

Ryan Montgomery 255 and the banned Seamus Brunner episode about the world's power brokers...great episode

Erika

There are several good guests! I’m biased towards Legend & Sarah. Their knowledge base about Afghanistan and threats to America captivated me

Adam Majoria

Ryan Mongomery, not only did he give practical, useful content (adding meshtastic to my emergency plan), but he began the saga of what I believe will become is biggest legacy, saving children.

Stacy

Don graves!! Mostly because he’s a badass with incredible history… and because I’ve gotten to know him at breakfast every week do the past few years!

James Daniel

108. Shawn and Jordan are two people i would love to sit down with. Only wish Anthony Bourdain was still available. That would be some impressive chit chat.

Ben Chaffee

Tom Satterly, an epic story of resilience. Also, his personal experience in Somalia and Black Hawk Down

jason wengerd

Episode #233. Nathan Apffel opening the door into mega churches. And the lies and deception that goes on in some these churches. It makes me so sad to see what some of these pastors do in the name of Jesus chirst.

Paul Reed

#141 Sarah Adams!!

Matthew

This is tough, as I could list over 20 episodes that have impacted my thoughts and actions. But, the first time Ryan Montgomery was on your show floored me. I’ve watch/ listened to that episode several times.

Aaron

Jared Hudson. Great christian man who hunts traffickers. Thats a win

Christian Tucker

Episode 285 with Fr Ripperger. Amazing man and amazing insight into demonic influences all around us

Cierra Stagg

Episode 41 with Kyle Morgan was the first SRS I ever watched and I was hooked just watching the preview so I'm going to have to pick #41!

Josh

VERY Hard to pick. I don’t know if I have a favorite, but the one that is stuck with me the most is Cody Alford. Not only told us some really awesome stories about his time in combat, but he do deeply into his issues pre-and post combat. The very open minded approach how he helped himself and others. I watched it a few times and it’s absolutely wonderful to see his presence on your show Utilized to spread help to other veterans.

Ross Mauri

#242 Pete Scobell - because of Pete’s life story and the many lessons learned he shared.

Dillon

Tom Satterly and his relationships with his family.

David Krier

Father Chad Ripperger. I met Father Ripperger at a Denver Colorado Marian Conference. (He would not know who I am. Everyone waited in line to shake his hand after his talk). This was my favorite episode because 1) Father Chad is able to reach a much wider audience speaking on SRS than he otherwise would be able to reach, 2) We are all called to daily conversion in our lives and Father Chad inspires me to grow in a deeper life with Christ, and 3) recognizing that the worst of our nation's problems are spiritual by nature, we learn that only through a conversion to Christ can the USA be healed.

daynalynn100@yahoo.com

Dick Thompson: he was truly humble about his service, explained his many experiences in a way that brought them to life and he fought for the right reasons & not for glory!

Ben Chaffee

Hunter Biden, I actually watched it all

Jake vernon

Episode 255 with Ryan Montgomery! Love this one because of the awareness brought to all the craziness and tech that is in the world today. Him and his friend shlep are awesome episodes that are a real gut check.

Dave

I can’t say it’s my favorite however it’s the show that motivated me to 1 join Patreon and furthermore like share and comment across all media would have to be Hunter Biden . And for the reason that it must have been very difficult to get him on your show and extrapolate true honest Q&A . He’s in many ways the opposite of your fan base but yet you had your “judgement free zone “ which no doubt opened up honest dialogue on a huge level to a country divided by special interest groups and billion dollar budgets hell bent on divide . Like or dislike Biden at least you heard his words for once . I feel the show’s integrity and it’s lacking in this country these days . So the Biden interview not altogether fun however incredibly eye opening to the system and there to be fact checked if necessary.

Mike

Really enjoyed Pete blaber. Very eye opening about GWAT.

Dr. JB

Another series you released was Psyop. For obvious reasons, once you recognize it, you can’t unsee it. Everything around us is engineered to compete for our attention—our clicks, our votes, our spending, even our beliefs. What troubles me most isn’t merely that this constant manipulation exists, but that our own government tolerates it and, in many cases, actively participates in it. The very institutions meant to protect an informed citizenry have become some of the most adept practitioners of influence and behavioral shaping.

Justin

The Eddie Gallagher episode and how they tried to fuck him for life. Really gave me the first glimpse of into how the institutions don’t give a shit about the American war fighters/ operators. My eyes have been opened since. Thanks Shawn for all you and your team do to bring light to all the shitty situations that are going on out there.

Tee Lock

Pete B hands down… sure it was +10h over 2 episodes but I learned a LOT … plus the topics were familiar and comforting (I know it sounds weird but I grew up with these stories around me as a kid and they evoke very fond memories)

Lisa

Knowledge is Power! I’ve taken something from each episode I’ve watched. Because of this, I can’t name just one favorite!

Hudd

My favorite episode was Jeremiah Johnston. Outstanding! Also, the interviews with Sara Adams!! Love the Watchfloor!

Josh

Ryan Montgomery for sure. Love all the cool tech gadets he has and how much both of you care about protecting our kids! ❤️

CSparks

Episode 284 - Schlep This kid's courage is awesome to see. It give hope for the future to think that this generation is standing up to these predators and are willing to take risks

Bryce Adams

I’m going to say Eddie Gallagher episode! However, there are too many great ones to choose from. Thanks for what you do!

Kevin Gullette

Episode #43. Eddie Penney. It was the first episode I had ever watched when I first found Shawn’s show. My wife sent it to me in hopes it would resonate with me, and it definitely did. It helped me think about and realize a lot of things within and about myself as I listened to Eddie’s struggles early on and his journey to Christ.

Simon Wayman

#293 Jeremiah Johnston I think it’s very important people know the Facts and Evidence about Christs Resurection and the pure brutality of it. And the fact that he did it all for us. Incredibly interesting and Faith Promoting.

Gunny's Wrenches

There have been many, but WWII Marine Don Graves stands out for me because I was heavily raised by my Grandpa, who was also a child of the great depression. It reminded me a lot of the life lessons I took from him growing up dairy farming, we didn't really have a lot, but we always had clean clothes on our back and were fed. We were self-sufficient and relied on no one. When I got married, the wife & I decided to raise our 4boys in the same manner - haven't bought meat in a store since 2001, we eat wild game, grow our own garden, preserve our own foods, etc. and have passed this knowledge on down. They are all grown and successful young men now so there is something to be said about instilling that kind of tenacity from a young age. Shawn's interview with Don was a preservation of that history, perseverance, and love of the Lord. This is the American history, experience and knowledge that needs to be permanently documented before it is gone in a world of youth that think an existential crisis is not having Wi-Fi.

James Best

#278 Ro Khanna - This is such a severe indictment on congress and what is going on, and finally someone who has the balls to stand against party lines and have a real conversation about integrity and working to find solutions for what is best for people.

Ken Lambert

#51 Chris Vansant; amazing stories but "how about some naval fire power" was amazing!! LOL

Panagioti

#285 Father Chad Ripperger It convinced me to start my journey finding Christ

aughtsix

I have three that are impossible to separate by order, they are each so moving, informative and enlightening: Pete Blaber, Jeremiah Johnston and your own confessional story, Shawn. I could name another twenty equally as important, space and time permitting. Travis Haley comes to mind instantly... what a history and what a deeply humble and heartfelt revelation of a spiritual journey... manhood personified. Thank you Shawn and guests for the revelation and inspiration to be found no where else.

Terry Hendon

Jeremiah Johnston and the shroud of Turin

Joey Robertson

Alan Mack this was one of the longest episodes. I think Sean has done and it is one that I absolutely loved and listened and read listened to just because of the vast history and he was always in critical parts of the war and on famous battlefields and it was awesome to hear from me special forces pilot

Dave

I'm really enjoying the Pete Blaber Episode Part 1. I wasn't in the know about the goings-on in the Urkraine and the classic Nation Building doctrine that had been followed. The propaganda was compelling. It occurred to me that the agreements made between the USA and USSR which comprised Parastroika during the Reagan and Gorbachov administrations seem to fallen short of the mark.

Dixon

Schlep and Montgomery are a tie for me. Two guys that really are seeking justice for the most innocent among us.

Brian Hindman

SRS #56, 255, and 284. I think those impacted me the most as a parent. You better believe I deleted all Roblox apps and Discord.

Bryce

Ryan Montgomery

Brian Hindman

#242 Pete Scobell. The longest pod cast I have ever listened to but I really enjoyed his story.

zach kunze

Zach Lahn. #290 !!! I’m part of my family farms in Iowa and fourth generation. Loved listening to his political philosophy and his passion for farming and the problems future generations are facing. He’s one of the few politicians. I would vote for these days if I had to go off just your interview.

Kurt Schmulbach

Shrek or Luis Chaparro if I have to pick

Bryan Williams

#255 Ryan Montgomery. I work in IT so I love to learn about all of the new hacking gadgets. Of course nothing beats taking down sick ass Pedophiles, some of the lowest scums of this earth. #284 Schlep I'm a parent of two young girls who played Roblox everyday. Even though I closely monitored everything they did on this app and would have never let them come victim to any of these pedo groomers I couldn't for another day support the creators and contributors to this app because of their lack of actions. My kids and I no longer have Roblox and will continue to convince everyone we know to delete this app from all of their kids platforms.

KB001

242 Pete Scobell. He was one of the realest guys you’ve had on. It also speaks directly to the issues I am interested in. Love the Christian perspective as well.

Jane L Kill

Tom Satterly, had friends at Mogadishu.

Susan Salazar

Pete Blaber Really enjoyed listening to him and how he led his troops.

Tyler Studt - TRIBE 4 Children

So many good ones. I would probably say Chris Bledsoe one due to Lady Wisdom and his interaction with the Attribute of God. It gave me some big pieces im working on in my area. For other topic, id choose Nick Bryant. But all the ones that discussed about ending child trafficking. Victor Marx, Ryan, Schlep and so many others

Tony Scalise

285 Father Chad Ripperger, but really all of the exorcism related ones. Such a fascinating and cool topic. And Father Chad has a bad ass name, it suits his profession!

Cameron

I have to say Tim Tebow .. although there are so many but I truly felt something biblical from just hearing the passion he has as a football giant to him taking a huge stance at saving children and bringing it to main stream. Not just being the spotlight for who he was but making the issue the spotlight. He truly is a light in this world. Your show of your past and your reasons for finding Christ was as well so raw and true for so many it’s what made me watch and become a member. I don’t know A lot about guns or own one but this state of which we are living is pushing me to want to learn to protect myself as a single mom..

Jim flenniken

Father Rehill Episode 141. He made it clear that we live on a spiritual battlefield.

Alonzo Cantu

Mike Glover. This episode opened my eyes and allowed me to see i wasn't alone in what I feel and deal with after Somalia. I wasn't Tier 1 but I was a support element for them. Centra Spike. Operation Restore/Continue Hope/Operation Gothic Serpant. GWOT.

Tank KFFK

Eddie Gallagher Ep #8. The way the US Government treated him and his family was enough to make my blood boil. I listened to the whole episode and had to replay it for my Wife to listen too on a couple of long car rides. We actually bought the book and gave it to my Brother-in-law to read. I tried to turn him onto your Pod Cast but he's old school, Vietnam Vet "68-69"

Jeff Hickman

#149 Sarah Adams! Every time that she's on I learn some manynew, and interesting things.

Bud

My favorite interview is with Pete Blaber on Takar Gar and Pat Tillman. First person is very reveling

Twinister

My favorite episode is the interview with father Dan Reehil, that episode was very enlightening and helped me strengthen my faith.

Jesse wilcox

Ep 1: Mike glover I’m a huge fan of Mike and listening to his story was awesome!

Sean Collins

218 - Gavin Newsom This episode shows everyone that despite political leanings, everyone can have a GOOD conversation with each other. No matter the creed, philosophy, religion, color, we are all Americans and humans.

Jordan Dill

I enjoyed seeing the Roblox getting exposed. Come to find out today they now have in game chat with mics. That’s not good.

Chris

#199 Tim Tebow It was great listening to a guy who had every opportunity to become the typical scum professional athlete, terrible influence for kids, etc. Yet he chose God, and the path of helping kids. No better role model.

Brian Dohmen

#56 Ryan Montgomery It was truly eye-opening how wide open our electronics are and how depraved Woodchipper Fodder really are.

Nate Corl

Victor Marx. I always struggled with how much bad there is in the world and the teachings of the Bible, God, Jesus etc. Victors statement about how they suffer with us just made so many bad things make sense!

Mary Supreme Shenanigans

Elizabeth Philips by far I watch that episode probably 5 times and made everyone I know watch it. I’m a survivor! Its my favorite due to the fact that many victims are never given a voice, she is holding space for everyone who was not able to speak. Thank you Elizabeth.

Josh Droullard

DJ Shipley for sure. It was raw and real. He persevered through and survived hell. He deserves every good thing coming his way.

STEVE

Fr rippenger. The exorcist This war is spiritual , attack Against family. And all things holy. The priest gave good sound doctrine to fight evil. THE ROSERY AS A WEAPON. CAN STOP WARS AND ALTER NATURAL EVENTS

Cathy McCune

Sarah Adams cuz she opens everyone's eyes so much. I have shared all her episodes with friends. But I also really enjoy listening to Lee Strobel. First time I heard of him was on your show and I bought case for christ and both my husband and I loved it!

Jeremy Reynolds

Tim Tebow episode. Everything he does for children is unrivaled

Ginger Wolf

Absolutely the Pete Blaber. It was long and two part but wow! I could listen to another 12 hours. Fascinating!

Chris Wilson

294 with Pete Blaber. The amount of stuff he has experienced and the wisdom we can gain from it is priceless

Shane Jones

I really enjoyed Ryan Montgomery's episodes and Schlep's episode. I absolutely love how you guys shine a light on this stuff when no one wants to. Seeing what you do for children is 100% why I subscribed on patreon. And you pull no punches when doing it, naming schleps abuser in his interview was iconic. Never change man.

Joshua Colburn

Ryan Montgomery and both episodes. Can’t pick one over the other. Please don’t make me.

AussieAndy127

Episode #294 part I & II. What an interview. Just mind blowing. Probably the best interview I’ve ever watched. Thank you.

Jacob Kolwyck

You really are going to make us choose 1 single episode to call our favorite…?? That’s almost cruel! Hahah I guess I’ll have to say the episode with DJ Shipley because…. Damn!!! I mean like… damn!

Neal Ritter

Sarah Adams. I learn something every time.

Will N

Victor Marx. Very forgiving man and truly cares.

Carlos Moz

Hands down Peter Blaber the commitment, the honesty, and resemblance from both of men. Not to mention the loyalty. Listened to every sec. Went back even a couple times. Thank you Shawn. Unbelievable time to be alive. Thank God and God bless America.

Ian Lane

Matt Bissonnette. It was eye-opening to see how government could turn its back on someone who gave so much. Plus him volunteering as a traffic stop person and running into someone who said they were on the team that killed Osama bin Laden was hilarious

Joe Estrada

Jocko Willink…..he’s one of the OG’s in the podcast world and he always delivers on anything related to Leadership at any level

Joshua Bowling

Episode #293 with Jeremiah Johnston - this episode brought me back to my faith after years of having doubts. I had heard about the shroud, but never knew how profound the evidence is.

MontyG

Cody Alford SRS #34, Why I like…”The Grit”

Karol

#255

HowardF

Hard to pick just one. Ryan Montgomery would definitly make the top 3. I remember the first book I read about this from fellow vet re: "The Franklin Cover Up - John DeCamp" back in the 1980s. Some things haven't changed. I think Sarah Adams and Legend would be the others in my top 3.

Liv

How can you pick one? Ryan Montgomery is an amazing guest. As is Sarah Adams. I also thoroughly enjoyed Brad Geary’s interview. Actually, his may make #1 for me. You could really feel how unfairly he was treated, how admirably he handled the mistreatment and then to see his faith remain so strong and unwavering… He has so many qualities of what I believe a leader should possess.

James Reece

Don graves, ww2 flamethrower with a great singing voice, men were just built different back then 💪🏻💯

Bones and Tubs

I really appreciate your episodes with Ryan Montgomery and all of the subsequent work you've done to protect children so its hard to pick just one. If the effect it had on me to try to protect the children in my life is any indication of the value of that work on the population I think we should be turning the corner on this satanic problem very soon. Christ is King!

Christopher Schaeffer

Fr. Ripperger. These are the everyday battles being won and lost in the battle for souls.

Holger Danske

Favorite episodes? Dr. Dan Schneider and Fr. Ripperger... Joe Kent is a close second... why? Because SRS is the only place to find the REAL SHYTE! HolgerDanske OUT!

Holger Danske

CORRECTION: "Dynamite" Dick Thompson was the BEST SRS! Truly The Dude's Dude! Epic...

Lucio Romero Dominguez

My favorite episode is the one with Sgt. Tyler Vargas‑Andrews because his story hits a different level of honesty and courage. He doesn’t sugarcoat anything — the chaos at Abbey Gate, the injuries, the recovery, the frustration, all of it. You can feel the weight of what he lived through, but also the strength it took to survive and speak about it. It’s one of those interviews that stays with you because it’s real, raw, and impossible to forget.

Dustin Robinson

The episode prior to Easter with Jeremiah Johnston. As a Christian it was so impactful and educational. I had never of that guy before then, but I've since shared it with my personal and Church families. Amazing to know that most of what we believe can be backed up with evidence! Thank you for what you do in chasing and exposing the truth!

RD

Pete Blaber, Shawn showed us what a dynamic guy he is! He’s definitely the epitome of what every Delta operator should strive to be!

SW

I liked Father Ripperger. It was such an interesting and little discussed topic about demons and exorcisms.

kenneth carson

Jeremiah Johnston has been my favorite so far. Father Ripperger was interesting.

Jennifer

#285 with Fr Ripperger. I have always enjoyed listening to him.

John

#192 with Strobel and Burke on Easter! They complimented each other so well abd It was a great conversation about our King Jesus! Episode 294 Pete Blaber is my #2 after watching his episode I had to go back and watch #192 to not be mad at what people did. 😇Lord Help Us

Ashley Shank

Lee Strobel Christmas episode! God is good!

I reference the DJ Shipley episode the most to explain how nobody is to tough to not be effected by the things we see at work. If there's anybody in modern times raised to be a warfighter, it's him. He was around SEALs his entire life then advanced to the top there, and still came home messed up. I tell them there's no firefighters, no matter how hard/tough/type A that's tougher or more dangerous than DJ Shipley. So if he can admit that sometimes we need help to process the crap we see, then we have no excuses outside of pride.

Nicole

Fr. Rippinger. Fascinating and inspiring and hopeful to see the Good Work and Battle being fought. Thank you Shawn.

Jennifer

Fr. Rippinger, #285. Always love to hear him

Sharon Fahey

Your first episode with Sarah Adams.

Intertaining Angels

Ryan Montgomery, I have kids, and had no idea about roblox....

Mike

Father Rippinger, his work and knowledge is so incredible. Very fortifying for my faith and my family’s spiritual safety

Steven Russelle

My vote goes to Dale Stark's interview. Stark was a pilot of the A-10 and through extreme effort and by distinguishing himself in pilot training, got that slot. Atop the great rundown of the training cycles he had to endure and his war action, Dale is just a great guy. He never stops smiling. He's got a nice farm in retirement and a nice family situated there. A Christian to boot. A wonderful role model for every person serving or who wants to. Top quality man in every way.

Courtnee Ross

My fav. Is Father Chad Ripperger. I literally listened to it multiple times. It is my fav. because a lot of the questions you had ask I hung on every word he said! The questions were well thought out and a few I had myself.. just never really got any kind of straight forward answers he gave. Just well founded interview! And of course his great reaction to receiving his SIG lol priceless !

Nicolas Pardo

Pete Blaber by far best so far seeing how the wars in the Middle East have all been for BS and making money for the rich

CyrusdaG

Both Joe Kent episodes. I’m humbled by his courage and conviction.

Chris Martin

So many, but the Ryan Montgomery episode is probably my favorite I've listened to recently, as far as learning about all the tech stuff I had no idea about.

Bryan Gibbs

Jeremiah Johnston - The Book of Enoch, Nephilim and the Ark of the Covenant | SRS #293 Seeing the evidence Jeremiah brought to the podcast was moving. At the very bare minimum, what a strong piece of visual reminder of the price Jesus paid for the debt “man” earned. Shawn please keep chasing truth. You need it. We need it. 🇺🇸👊

sidski

Christian Craighead. Interview.

J C de Vaca

Jim Caviezel interview was very inspiring and eye opening.

john bodine

Seamus Bruner, his deep dive into the people behind the power in the world was enlightening and pissed you off in the same breathe

Anthony Canonizado

Pete Blaber was an awesome one. But there are too many to pick just one.

Mandy Beinke

Name dropped out at the end of announcements. I do recall saying shotgun Shawnie and you read out Mandy being I but my last name wasn't audible. Anyways I would love the gummies as per the prize and have NEVA won online before. It does say u won't reach out in the policy so i thought I would. Just in case.

Jeffrey L. Wipplinger

I love many episodes but one of my favorites is episode #148 with Alan C. Mack!

twocool2trip

I can't say there is a single favorite episode, but wi5h a Sig to my head 😉having to choose, I'd say Joe McMoneagle- To know that our bodies can do so much more than most of us think is astounding. He has used his mind to save kidnapped/abducted people, missing children, tour the planet through outer body experiences, and his service to our great nation. 6+hrs of great information!! With the Monroe Institute as a guide, I can't wait to go one day. Have you gone yet?

Nichole Smith

Hunter Biden. I know I am going to get hell for this from the community. Let me explain. It is too hard to pick just one. There are very few I would say I did not enjoy. Shawn I love your show because you are not one sided. As a Republican voter, I am still open to hear all sides, I believe in humanity and forgiveness. Did Hunter tell the truth during the entire interview? Probably not. Has every single guest you have had on told the truth? I think we can say definitely not (I won't name names). You allowed Hunter to tell his story, honestly, he didn't come right out and say his dad's mind was gone, (does anyone really think he would do that) not just from a corruption standpoint, but as a son. That is still his father, he did acknowledge his father is old, he has memory issues just like any other person of his age. Considering the situation Hunter is between that his father was the President and also his father, I think that is probably the best he could do to admit anything in a public forum. Hunter was able to tell about some of his struggles that many of us "normal people" have dealt with as well regarding addiction. I could only imagine how horrifying it would be to have pictures of your worst moments in life on billboards, magazines etc. spread across the nation and world. Corrupt family, liar, or what, he is still human and puts his pants on the same way. I commend you for allowing him to tell his side of the story.

Patrick Hobbs

Wow so tough to pick my favorite. #225 gives me hope for my grandkids.

Iron Jim

Mike Durrant #259. Fascinating interview

Stephen Manning

259 Mike Durant, It was crazy to hear the actual events only knowing what happened from the movie, the real story was way more interesting But also 249 Mr ballen, the story about the kid behind the washer was crazy!!!!

Old School Combative Arts

My favorite is #108 with Jorden Peterson because it directly impacted my belief in Christ. This episode directly brought me to Christ and I am blessed because of it. This is where my spirituality was reborn and the beginning of dealing with my inner demons and casting out all the VA drugs.🙏❤️

Keri

I would have to say Ryan Montgomery is always going to be my favorite episode - both of his episodes with the Shawn Ryan show. Parents are oblivious to the dangers of their children being on the internet (even just playing games online is so dangerous) and it’s imperative that more awareness is brought to the subject to keep our children protected. Tim Tebow episode was also great. All the episodes are great and it’s hard to choose 😅

J D

I’d have to say Ryan Montgomery I hope a lot parents got uncomfortable like I did and not only deleted Roblox but had a conversation with their children I sent this to all the parents in my men’s church group and they came back and said several of the children were having issues like the other victims.

SHAWN PETERSEN

My favorite episode and still watch it over several times is the DJ Shipley show. I believe this is what put Shawn Ryan on the path to seek out Jesus Christ

Crystal Summerfield

My favorite episode was the first one I ever watched, EP #192, with Lee Strobel and John Burke! It had two lasting results; #1 it brought me back to Christ, #2 it got me hooked on your show. The runner up favorites are with Ryan Montgomery! Thanks for everything you bring to the light!!

sidski

Travis Haley 172 also.

David Vuono

Hands down, Mike Durant.

Dennis

But, just finished #294, Pete Blaber. What an awesome American soldier and an awesome example what leadership should look like.

Joanna Maher

I love the Sara Adams episodes. Its nice seeing her story be told and her knowledge being shared. Especially her being a woman. I appreciate you shining a light on that. Its not talked about enough. Speaking from a veteran.

John Wick 1776

Definitely the Sara Adams episode that first introduced the homeland plot info

Andy

192, the resurrection! The positivity from this episode was super refreshing. I listened to it at work then watched it with my wife the following week.

Derek faith

The dick Thompson episode, that guy is abadass.

Sara Wheeler

DR JEREMIAH JOHNSTON -- he has the best news of anyone!!! ✝️💜

Jacob Dickson

The chris bledsoe episode! He is so interesting, I hope we can learn more about his experience and have a similar one ourselves.

Maz

I enjoyed Joe Kent, but the old MACVSOG guys are just the best

Steve Harless

Wes Huff, without a doubt! As a person who was lost for a long time, finding the Lord again has done my life a lot of good! I still have some demons that I am working through, but with the Lord walking beside me, I will overcome!

Tyler Mims

Chris Vansant, DJ Shipley, Tom Satterly, Rob O’Neill, Tom Spooner, Jason Redman, and Mike Durant. All for the historic significance, as well as their personal struggles. Struggles that most can relate to, not just those at the top of the spear. Captain Brad Geary and Eddie Gallagher were also great ones! Obviously, John McPhee was entertaining. Analgesic Balm 🤣

Hamburger

Sara adams for me for sure .She raised the alarm on how terrorists were moving up from south america seems like a full year before i ever heard anything about it on the legacy news channels.At that point we all started paying more attention to these politicians that are all sorry

Rob

Ahmad Massoud! Opened my eyes about Afghanistan and their pursuit of freedom. Then I read his book which was also great! Tied in nicely with what we learned from Sarah and The Legend.

Qbone

Always Sarah Adams’ , her stuff always hits for me

John Dexter

Jocko was the best in my opinion... was an in depth look at him and you at the same time.. Much respect

Jacy B

My favorite has to be #291 Joe Kent. Reason: I enjoyed the topics, the back and forth flow of conversation, and I believe Shawn asked some really great questions. Some other creators do interviews that I just can’t even bare to listen to because of the talking over one another, or they miscommunicate and don’t understand one another. Can’t stand it. Shawn rarely has moments like that. Way to go, Shawn!

Jimmy Welch

Tim Tebow - his heart for Christ and children. Lots of great ones. This is #1.

bailey taylor

DJs episode will always be my favorite.

Grant C.

Episode #111 with John Burke because it scared the crap out of me.

Jerrod V.

Any episode with Ryan Montgomery. The man over came so much and pushed through the hardest times. He came out the other side with a clear vision of who he was going to be and what he was supposed to do. This is a horrible world right now and our children are our only hope for a better one. Keep them safe and teach them to be kind yet strong.

Mark DuBois

Chris Beck! Why because of his 3 second rule, it has had a huge impact on me and my life.

Doug

What about the 15 agricultural drones that were recently stolen in NJ..? How the fuck does that happen..?

Ken Qualls

wow so many favorites to choose just one Ryan Montgomery, Schlep, Father Chad, Meg Applegate, Elizabeth Phillps, and Jeremiah Johnston just to name a few. The content may be heavy but it is so eye opening.

TylerRose2267

Ryan Montgomery, clearly opened my eyes to the awful dangers of online gaming. My children had to learn about stranger danger but now my grands are so much more vulnerable. We think and trusted the app creators were putting safeguarding into their apps. We were all fooled and therefore need to be extremely overprotective with allowing our youngsters to be online in any game or messaging app. Thank you so much for shedding light on so many issues we face today. I tell everyone if you are not following SRS you are missing out!!💜🇨🇱

Duane Tiller

So many to pick from, but to me Ryan Montgomery stands out, he is a true do-gooder that believes in what he is doing & it seems even with all of the good he has done & the change he has helped make happen & all while putting himself in harms way I might add, the young man stays humble. Salt of the earth, right there, period. Somebody send that young man some Campbell's soup !

Madaleine Alexander

Well, technically, it just happened and it technically wasn’t on the SRS, but I loved and it will be my all-time favorite getting to hear Shawn Ryan talk to Tucker Carlson. I already loved him, but that made me love him even more! Getting to know him better, who we see every time he interview someone, was really awesome. Getting to see him open up. But since that isn’t his episode, this is the one of his that’s my favorite! My favorite SRS episode was #126 Joe Kent definitely pulls your heart strings.

Testudo

I love Shawn Ryan. He interviews better than anyone I've ever seen. Most interviews I'm screaming at the TV like: "WHY DON'T THEY ASK THE QUESTION!!??" Shawn leaves no stones unturned. Shawn sometimes has these long pauses and out comes the key question.. This show is great for long drives as well. It's not like TV interviews where "We are out of time......... "

Coya Craig

How can I choose just ONE favorite? At 74, I’m probably not your typical Shawn Ryan Show fan—but I’m hooked! I’ve been a believer for over 47 years, and what I admire most is Shawn’s unapologetic faith in God and the way he is calling men to rise up with courage, conviction and purpose. Tim Kennedy, Victor Marx, Christian Craighead—love that extraordinary man!—MrBallen, John Lovell, and Ryan Montgomery, the brilliant ethical hacker fighting the darkness and helping expose those who prey on our children…these are stories that stay with you. Shawn doesn’t just interview remarkable people. He shines light into dark places, gives good men a voice, and reminds us that courage, honor, faith and goodness still exist. In a world that can make you lose faith in humanity, this show has actually helped restore mine. And I love that God is being spoken about boldly and without shame. Whenever I meet a retired veteran, I ask, “Do you watch Shawn Ryan?” If the answer is no, I hook them up! 🇺🇸🙏 Keep doing what you’re doing, Shawn. You’re reaching more people—and more generations—than you probably know.
