023 Eddie Penney
The parallels of character that exists in a SEAL team 6 operator and devoted father who suddenly found himself taking care of several children by himself immediately returning from combat is both incredibly inspiring and uncanny. This episode I sit down with Eddie Penney, CEO of Contingent group and former SEAL team 6 operator. He gives us amazing insight into the incredibly competent and world famous unit that has been responsible for numerous high level operations since the war on terror began. Sit back and enjoy this thrilling and inspiring wild ride of warrior lifestyle and fatherhood

Mike, this is by far the best podcast I’ve ever listened to, and I’ve listened to a lot of them! Fantastic guests, but you ask all the right questions. My compliments.
This is one of the best interviews I've ever listened to. Great insight into a very intense life discussing topics that are not easy to share and incredibly personal. Hopefully, this may deter those who want to be a SEAL just for the glory. Shit happens and unless you're ready and willing to take a ride that may end with you and or your buddies dead don't waste your time in activities you have no business in. This is a life of extreme highs and lowest lows! This podcast deserves to be listened to over and over to take everything in. INTENSE! Respect and thanks to those willingly serving and taking those risks.
Thank God the Lord saw fit to bless America with a man like Ed Penney.

What a true American badass this cat is. So much respect for all service members and SF members. Thank you for sharing insight to such a special group of individuals.
When Eddie talks about giving his life to God it gave me goosebumps!!!! It shows that even strong men who are killers can still b servants of God and live for him. It is sooooo cool to hear him say that stuff! He is a true American Patriot and servant of the Almighty Lord Jesus Christ.

Eddie needs to do more on social media. People need to hear his story. I've listened to this episode over 20x.
One of the most real podcasts, especially with a Team 6 Operator going in depth about their missions.. Pretty crazy situations.
Good for Eddie on proudly sharing his faith. Great podcast. Not many men have His experience in the life of war and live to tell the tale
Best one yet in my opinion. Damn. Hearing you guys talk about how this stuff has affected family life really hits home for me. Respect
Unbelievable episode, thank you both for your service!!!!
Man, this was a great podcast!! Eddie is a real warrior, and has certainly given a lot for this Country!! Just an "old" Jarhead myself, and certainly don't have his combat experience (1st Gulf War, Marine Infantry rifleman), but really enjoyed his stories. Mike really gets some great guests on his podcast!
You guys have no idea how many of us you help sharing not only your stories, but your pain. None of us have a grasp of the price until we have already paid it. Shipley's interview with Sean saved my marriage and probably my life. Eddie's story just healed me up with every word. God bless you guys. thank you.
Mr Ritland, thank you for all of the outstanding Podcasts and your service to this great nation! You are awesome sir!
Really identified with the struggle of raising kids coming from the work environment posture and methodologies involved in warfare and intelligence: so you guys know- as a Mom- I've had the same experience when dealing as a Mom. It's not something many people understand and it was comforting hearing you guys bring it out. Contingent Group sounds like the Secret Service for Civilians and is awesome. In todays world-one mistake- even with all tools on deck-can create a victim situation. Never has it been so important to have contingency plans in place and keep the situational awareness level on high at all times. I had one question, does Contingent Group utilize K9's as well? Awesome Podcast Mike and Eddie!
It's awesome to get these stories from y'all. And hearing what you all go through to preserve the freedoms I enjoy today! Thank you!
Eddie Penney u are an AMAZING SEAL and an AMAZING person, u are a BEAST!! The best of the best for sure and I totally from my heart thank you for all of ur sacrifrices and service to our great country.
This was one of the most raw and intense interviews pertaining to the life of tier one operator. Eddie tells it like it is and Mike knows how to ask the right questions. The lightning round questions are always and treat and hilarious. I am now an instant fan of Mike Drop. No better podcast on right now that presents the Brotherhood life without the fluff. Keep up the great work Mike! ...LLTB

Much thanks; I'm grateful and thankful for dedicated men as yourselves who are willing and volunteer their time and lay it all on the line. Thank You simply isn't enough. Kuddos on the podcast, Mike. 🇺🇸
One of the great aspects of your interviews is the “what’s it like, or what’s entailed in the transition process from (x) career path to (y) career path. These insights should be invaluable to younger people as they choose their own paths.
Eddie was an awesome guest to have on the podcast. Your podcast is awesome, Mike. Great content!
Best podcast thus far Mike! I’m ready to see Dom Raso, Jocko, and Don Shipley. Much love from Texas!
Unbelievable what you guys put yourself through to protect the rest of us. Thank you for these podcasts and the pure unfiltered honesty of your guests like Eddie.
Here we go again! There is no wasted time whem I’m listening to every mike drop. Literally.
Listening now, excellent podcast as usual so far! Can you try to get DRAGO on the podcast? Several hours of uninterrupted, unfiltered Drago would be priceless.

Loved this interview. Thank you for getting the bad guys! Thank you for your honesty and telling your story, makes me appreciate you guys and all you do SO MUCH MORE!!! SO freaking grateful for my freedom and guys like you all, my brother, cousins, uncles, great uncles, grandpa, great grandpa who keep us free. I was a spoiled brat who never "got it" growing up. My grandpa (WWII 14 AD-48th Tank Battalion) never talked about his service, he passed away when I was 26 years old (I'm 49 now). After he passed, I spent YEARS researching his service. MAN... wish he would have told me... I never "got it" until after he was already gone, he and my grandma pretty much raised me and I have a hard time knowing now, what I didn't know then... I mean, I always looked up to him, but wish I KNEW just how much he did for me...fighting to keep me free... I wish I would of "got it" before he died, so I could let him know just how much he meant to me. I hope that makes sense. Guess what I'm trying to say is, it's so important that you guys TEACH US what you do and why you do it. Trust me, I went to school in the 1970s & 1980s and back then we didn't learn shit, so I KNOW todays kids are learning even less... THANK YOU... it means everything to me.
I’m glad you two are on America’s side. Thank you so much for your service to our country . God bless
I'm working my way through your videos and have drawn so much inspiration from you guys and have the utmost respect for you too. My mindset is being changed as I work my way through and am applying them to my life right now. Great story from Mr Penney and yourself!
Just watched this episode and man was it fascinating and inspiring. Thank you to both of you for your service and sacrifice. Was Corps guy doing grunt work but love to hear these stories and tribulations. Semper Fi. Great podcast Mike.
What a great guy and thank you for great content!
Boy am I glad Eddie is on our side! Great podcast. They just keep getting better!! Thanks Mike.
Best show on KZread
Thank you Mike and Eddie for your service and thank you allowing people like me to hear your stories I feel privileged to hear your life experience and I’m inspired by both you Thank you
One of the best podcasts I’ve heard yet about being a SEAL. Outstanding interview. Thanks!
New to this channel and I can't stop listening. I'm a civilian and just wanted to say thank you. The quality of the content as well as the men you have on is truly excellent. Thank you again for what you all have done for the country, in and out of the service, and being willing to share it. The raw and unapologetic conversations are truly refreshing in a world now dominated with hypersensitive pandering. Keep up the great work and I wish you and your guests all the success your sacrifice deserves.
Waited for the video as that's the best way for me to appreciate the conversation. As always, great interview. I can relate to becoming desensitized, same thing with working on missing children cases for over 2 decades. It can make you numb, but you cannot be effective if it makes you a basket case. Thanks for all you do. I always get something out of it. This is what you were meant to do.
You started awesome and got better and better the farther you came off script. Thank you for everything you did and so much for what you do now. We've adopted 2 MWD since I retired What a gift
What an outstanding podcast episode. So thankful for warriors like these guys!
Some GREAT advice, here!!! Thank you for posting!!!
Another Great Pod Cast! Thanks Eddie and Mike for your Service!
Every podcast that I watch I get really emotional and cry. I can't help but feel for these guys thank you to everyone
Great podcast Mike!! Thank you Eddie for your service and sacrifice! God Bless
Great podcast like always, Eddie was a great guest with great stories.
I gotta say I'm usually pretty reserved when it comes to making a comment about a topic I know nothing about. After watching your podcast with Eddie and others alike I've come to understand how vital your job was and is. Thank You both.
Listened yesterday. Watching today. The stories Eddie told are intense. More proof that we need to keep going after the evil in this world and that God there are service members willing to fight for us. God bless you all for keeping myself my family and America safe.
Eddie, Thank you for your service to our country and humanity.
Eddie Pennie is so passionate about the teams! As the pod cast starts he slowly opens up but once we get to seal team 2 boy he talks much more and the passion just continues to flow!!!! Great pod cast Mike!
Such unreal content. Thanks for putting this together mike, and thank you Eddie. After every swing shift as an LEO, I come home, watch a mike drop podcast, pray, and go to bed.
The level of respect I have for these men and men like them is indescribable. Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for us and our country. 🇺🇸❤️
I watched this interview when first released, just now committing. Not because it wasn’t good, I had to watch it a 2nd and 3rd time because it’s really good!! Thanks guys. Mike, you have THE best guests. Tough as nails my friend 🇺🇸
Great interview. Eddie is an incredible warrior. Incredible skills and his feeling of arriving home tells it all. Nice to know guys like Eddie defend America. Thank you Ed & Mike for your service.

@The Kids Nice......I am a veteran. I have also seen more videos than I care to count. Many I wish I could have unseen. Did they need to be killed? Almost certainly, and lives were saved by doing so. However, no Christian takes joy in the taking of lives, even when they're dirtbag IS characters. And while it may have needed to be done, it isn't our place to talk about "deserving" anything. That is God's place alone. On the battlefield, you do what you must, but "deserving" isn't man's judgements. If you understand Christ, you'd know that none of us "deserve" anything good. It is grace through Christ that we are saved.
