Episode 140 - Remi Adeleke
Ойын-сауық
Remi Adeleke was born in Western Africa and moved to New York City with his mother and brother following the death of his father. In 2002 he joined the U.S. Navy, ultimately completing the grueling training to become a member of the select U.S. Navy SEALs. Since completing his military service, Remi has had successful careers in writing, speaking, and films. He appeared in the 2017 franchise film Transformers: The Last Knight, and served as the lead technical advisor on the Netflix production 6 Underground. Remi also partners with City Hope in La Mesa, California, where he mentors at-risk and inner-city youth.

This guy has one of the best origen stories since Black Panther Lol... All jokes aside, shout out to Remi for this inspirational story. You are definitely what I would call a well rounded role model.
Definitely, one of my top 5 Cleared Hot episodes without a doubt.
What an amazing woman that this guys mom was. Such a strong woman.

Absolutely! His mom's an amazing woman! And there are so many single mothers out there across the country who are incredible human beings. But how about that female recruiter? That's such an incredible story how she saw something in Remi and went out of her way to help him and went before not one but TWO judges to help him get his record expunged,get the warrants against him dropped and to get him into the Navy.It's a good thing that Remi is working in film because the dude's life and backstory reads like the plot for a movie!

Remi seems like such a solid dude, just read his book and now listening again
I don't feel like I'm the least interesting person in person in the world until I listen to guys like this.
My dad got sick when I was 5 and died when I was 8. Remi overcame the obstacle much better than I did.

He is world class. Family full of engineers and doctors. Father and brother are billionaires. Nephew is world famous singer Davido. When he says "if I can do it, anyone can," that is a HUGE lie.
Super show gentlemen, most laughing than I've done in a very long time. Can't begin to thank the two of you enough. Been dealing with a lot of tough things lately and really needed this today...

I loved his interview on Mike's podcast.He should be on Jocko's podcast. Wes Moore has a similarly incredible story and grew up in a similar way and in a similar environment to Remi(he grew up in the projects of the Bronx in New York and was raised by a single mother after his dad died,too)-Andy should really try to get Wes Moore on Cleared Hot,too.

This is a brilliant episode ! I already knew Remi was awesome, and this takes it to another level. There is such a rapport between you two, and so much pure joy at times - it's great how you both just laugh out loud ! There are some really deep issues, discussed in a very mature way, and overall I found it to be truly uplifting. Immediately one of my favourite episodes, and thank you both for that

Someone needs to make a movie about this guy ASAP
If black lives matter, then black lives have to matter all the time - Remi Adeleke. Mike drop.
I got way too excited when Remi started referencing the production on a story about Harriet Jacobs. I read her biography, “Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl” 15 years ago and wondered how no one had made a movie about her life. Her story is pretty amazing. I look forward to seeing this come to life on the screen. Normally, I would be leery of adaptations of books-turned-movies, but I’m hoping you do it justice. 😁
the story about the recruiter hits hard man... there are truly angels out there. RIP

yeah, I was laughing, remembering all the people freaking out about the swim test (I was air force). I was a lot like Andy, grew up swimming, always in the water, so it was very strange seeing grown men who had never learned how to swim. Thank god for growing up next to a lake....

@@TheFloresj23 One of the guys in a water survival class I later did in Colorado Springs was a black guy named Chris Howard, who was then a running back for the Air Force Academy and later on a helicopter pilot and Rhodes Scholar, just an amazing dude all around. Chris was muscled like a Greek god and had almost zero body fat and simply wouldn't float, so he was taking water survival for the third time. It was crazy, he could jump in the pool with a lung full of air and would go straight to the bottom, no buoyancy whatsoever. He completed the course, though, he was one tough mutha, he just had to tread water like crazy...

Seems like alot of Nigerian history is great people being given land, them making it great, then some warlord backed politicians just take it. This man has a tragic yet great story, and his parents sound like amazing people.
I read Remi's book a few months back and still wanted to listen to the entire podcast. Respect to Remi for telling his story on the show and not telling everyone to go and read his book. Although if you haven't you should read his book haha

this interview was fire. Much appreciated
Remi is the absolute man.

This is the coolest podcast ever. I love Remmy’s honesty in his story. Badass. Thanks guys!
Another fantastic Cleared Hot Andy! Great story Remi glad to hear it heading in the right direction now.
Great show thank you for telling your story. Happy birthday Remi
Amazing interview. Three hours flew by. Keep pressing. Respect.
You both have my humble thanks for the true message. You have encouraged me today.
Remi, you Sir won the uterine lottery! Thank goodness for solid parents and importantly, a mother that kept you and your brother on the right track. Super cool personal story and an inspiration to those who may say "there is no way out of this." Andy, as always, thank you for a great Cleared Hot Podcast. Always a go-to for ride to/from home.
Thank you for your service to our country and especially for your stories and using your celebrity as a platform to make peoples lives better. Such an inspiration!
Inspirational story. I heard him on Ritlands podcast a year ago but he didn’t go in depth on the story about his father, what an incredible story his father has, and I’m sure that’s just the abbreviated version or at least the version he knows. I’m sure there’s so much more to his dads story coming up that we’ll never know about.

Great thing about this podcast and the reason why it’s my favorite one today is - 1.) consistency, he uploads great content all the time now. There are some other podcasts I like but they drop episodes like once every 4 months 2.) Andy lets the guest tell their story, if this were JRE, Rogan would go down a rabbit hole about cell phone fraud and tech companies and ppl need meaning in their life and all this other shit for an hour and completely derail the guests story... so I appreciate that and I appreciate you uploading these!
