2018 class 3 H&H graduate here. Changed my life, I still draw from my experiences in the back country today.. it’s true! In the end I realized that everything I was looking for was already inside me … I realized that I was the one creating my own prison. Thank you Micah and team for putting me in a process to take the key and unlock my cell. Present day I’m a loving father, I volunteer in the community and I’m a business owner. Living life on my terms and following my purpose. Before H&H I could barely hold a job because of the reality I created. Thank you to all who support the program.. God Bless and TreatEmRough

I can't believe how good this episode was. I listen to a the usual suspects. Everyday. I've never made a comment. Never felt the need to. And, there's been some incredible ones in these podcast circuits. However, this one touched my soul. On a real level. Unlike any other before. Absolutely fascinating. While simultaneously hilarious at some moments. Thank you so much for this guys!! I've sent this to a several close friends and family members. I came home from work and told my wife about it.

There's a great book called Denying the Soul. The author is M. Scott Peck. A great book on necessary pain which is the emotional pain vs physical pain. "Growing old is inevitable growing up this optional". Is a great author he also wrote: The Road Less Travelled and Beating To A Different Drum, etc.. He's not only a great author he was a United States army psychotherapist at the pentagon and he is so humorous and funny. His details of many stories and one of his best audios was self love versus self esteem. Really helped in raising teenagers and understanding myself a little more 😅

Absolutely best one to date. His mindset is amazing and so spot on!

Refreshing. Thanks Andy. Yet again, bringing the education.

The first 15 minutes, alone, is great. Spot on. Cheers, Guys!

Outstanding individual. Thanks for having him on the show.

I'm actually going to listen through this one again.. Just challenging in so many ways

Micah Fink. Great episode and what a very intelligent man Micah is. This was an awesome couple of hours. Thx Andy. Semper Fi

Watched his program...500 miles...today. excellent. Very admirable program.

This was an amazing podcast. Micah has amazing insight and made some unpopular statements that people definitely need to hear. Our country lost its values years ago and only now becoming evident. It’s time to put down our cellphones and do something before it’s too late. Thanks for having him on. Time to stop trying to “save” other nations and focus on saving this one.

Fabulous segment. Thank you, you badass gentlemen savages. Sincerely.

Deep Thoughts. Epic. Thank you.

Fantastically powerful episode!!!

True: most valued linear to most struggle. Death by easy….great quote! Thank you gentlemen.

I think this is the best one yet... hopefully Micah will be returning soon enough!

Andy Micah is 1 of your best guest yet. He is so chill. He sounds almost trippy.

Damn! That was a great show Andy. Can't wait to see Micha trying to ride the Dickbroom. Keep up the great work guys. God bless America. 🇺🇸

5 mins in and i already love this dude! Great podcast andy🙌

Gosh I am an old sailor, and I love this guy!!

Wow!!! 2 hours 44 min felt like 10 min! This is one of those episodes that I’m going to be listening a few times in a row to keep extracting more and more of their perspective!

Wow what a great episode!!

Another great podcast. Thanks gents.

Easily bring him back but not right after a 41-day spiritual day journey rehabilitating Vets with extreme PTSD, love people like this guy, game-changer type human

Great thumbnail photo! Wish I could join this man on the ranch but I probably don’t qualify. Didn’t do much. At the time I was wounded I had went over to Guard as I had become a cop trying to stay around more to make my wife happy-yeah, ask me how that went? Anyway-good stuff as always Andy! Thank you for the upload!
