What they talk about men and not opening up about their emotions, Bernthal’s frank is cathartic in that he feels and displays those emotions in such a visceral, primal way. I get so much catharsis and have huge respect for Jon for empowering me in a weird way

Nicholas wat u even know bout catharticly catharasising?
This was a fantastic podcast. To see a man like Kevin and Jon talk about men’s emotions and dealing with trauma has been very enlightening as well as the political side of the conversation was incredibly helpful. Sometimes you go through life and you can’t seem to figure out how to deal with an issue no matter how hard you try and then you hear someone say something in just the right way that just opens your eyes and makes the solution seem obvious. That’s what this podcast was for me. Absolutely enlightening. Thank you Jon for doing this.
Kevins ability to show emotions in such a subtle way is so impressive for me to watch. The only way I could describe it is grace, and I am simultaneously envious of it and motivated to find it for myself. Thank you, gentlemen, for this interview.
I have to say, I needed this conversation and I didn't even know it. What a truly impressive individual with such necessary perspective. Thank you so much for providing content like this. So many points within this discussion landed deep within me. Can't wait to get started with digging into these feelings and see where they can take me. Cheers to you both!
Thank you for speaking with Humility, Humbleness, Truth, and Honor. Don't get no realer than this.
Jon is becoming my favorite person to watch. His interviews are exactly what works for me. He's the best listener, and allows his guests to speak their truth without unnecessary interruption. He truly sets the example of what it means to listen; not wait to speak, but listen. He keeps everything on course but gives a long leash, and allows the conversation to breathe. And breath is life.
So many awesome people in this world. Thank you for letting us meet one.
just hearing the convo between two guys that have so much decades of life experience betweenst them make me realize that i still have a lot to learn about life
The amount of stress, weight and anxiety that lifted off my shoulders from this episode is indescribable. I think this fellowship with our community as a whole is incredibly important now more than ever and I'm here for it.
So glad you started a podcast your literally my favorite actor this is just beautiful i watched all your interviews but this is just way better good luck please dont give up i can see this being really successful
Kevin’s a real man and I’m happy Shia’s getting there.
I love the way Jon let's his guests talk and genuinely wants to hear what they say... Great podcast 👌 Mens Minds Matter 🙏
Goddammit if this wasn’t the best podcast that I’ve seen in a long time
This episode really touched my heart. Appreciate Kevin’s discussion on holding space for others and getting uncomfortable. He’s the kind of person I look to in my own journey to de-stigmatize mental health - which I firmly believe impacts our ability as individuals and communities to build a better country. This podcast is one of the “beautiful things” being done out there. Thanks Jon ✌🏽
Thx, Jon. I support the concepts that Kevin brings forth. Powerful. Loved learning from his experience.
I've never been more proud to be a vet from the same city as Jon Bernthal. Great man.
Thank you for doing these interviews Jon! I love your work and and who you are as person. Your honest and down to earth personality really inspire me.
Finally! A person I respect interviewing men and women that I respect beyond all others. New subscriber here. Thank you sir. And thank you all veterans. I wish all youth had this taught to them. Struggling to get this through to my kids.
"If you do react, take stock" probably the best advice for the extremely partisan and divided times we live in. Great podcast recommended by Bruce River Crim Lawyer. Love the flow you provide in your interviews man✌🤘
Love your podcast and especially this one. High respect for Vance from one vet to another much love brother
You know I’m glad the men of the military speak about this stuff bc when it comes from us unappreciated normal guys no one listens and if you go through it as a infantryman or SF guy all the way to a cop firefighter dr or nurse I know I’m not different and that’s what got me out of depression so I thank you Mr Vance from the bottom of my soul.
This was really intense. Thanks for your show, my man. I just discovered this episode and I really enjoyed it.
This was a powerful conversation. Love from Toronto, Canada!
💪I watch your podcasts and learn English, Some words I understand ,thanks John! Hello from Kazakhstan!

I believe 100% that you are the best example of what happens when you have an immensely talented man mixed with genuine compassion
Truly Amazing episode and Podcast. Wow!!! So excited that you started these podcasts and sharing this journey with us.
Man I’ve enjoyed seeing Kevin Vance in many of my favorite movies! Loved him in End of Watch.
My favourite day of the week is when this podcast drops. I find myself learning more about the world & myself with every ep. I want to be the best me
That was powerful Thank you - Jon your questions were brilliant well done.
I randomly came across this channel but I think Jon has a really good talent for interviewing people I’d love to see more of this great video and conversation
This is an example of the types of conversations we need to be having. Here here.
This interview really makes you think! Full of heart and hard reality!! Don’t be afraid to be vulnerable. Me being a new dad this past 2 weeks, I look to my daughter and just can’t help but smile and cry. I get new strength and courage from her and my wife! Gr8 interview!!
So glad I found your podcast it’s so great. Thank you Jon
Thank You Kevin for everything you have done and thanks Real Ones for another great podcast.
Thank you for talking and sharing
Another great podcast episode and dynamic guest. This interview was informing, genuine, and heart-warming. Great job, Jon! God bless Mr. Vance and his beautiful family as well. Child birth is no joke and I am so glad that Mrs Vance survived and recovered thru such a traumatic experience. I am happy you are both blessed with one of God's gifts. Cherish parenthood and the new angel in your life.
If more people listened to this podcast and specifically this episode, the world would be a better place.
A lot of respect for this guy and great interview.
Impressive… really enjoyed this episode … It’s nice to hear from a former member of the armed forces and shead light whether it’s his values, opinions, and experiences… can’t wait for more epic topics to learn from your platform Jon
Best one yet!! Love these!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
You're the man Kevin, good shit bro, keep on rocking. And thank you for coming on a podcast and talking about some real stuff and not just coming on to talk about war stories, guns, aggression, violence. I love my fellow vets but enough is enough, if the veteran community is gonna lead the way we need to do it without trying to tell everyone about how big and badass and violent we are. These types of podcasts need to happen more often.
I love that you can tell were Jon Bernthal is with his career by his appearance during these pods
Absolutely love this episode! Every point is spot on!
Another great interview
Love the podcast and Jon Bernthal movies/tv shows. Nice work! Keep it up
This must be the dream spot for an actor to learn and get into other people's minds, and become the best of the best
Wow this brought me to tears
I knew by the way this guy held his rifle in End of Watch that he had to be in the service. His gear was squared away so I knew it immediately. Great job Kev
I don’t have the words..but I can say thank you for the inspiration on what it means to be a man in this day and age. We could all use a great example like Kevin in our lives as a model on what it means just to be a good human being and man.
Great interview
Great episode!!
I would trust this man to run our Country. Aware, open, balanced, compassionate, a higher perspective, intuitve, intelligent and insightful.
This podcast is amazing
I have only watched about a dozen of Jon's podcasts, and in the short time ive spent listening to his guests, i have to say, I'm a fan. This one was one of the best discussions I have heard. It was even obvious how much Jon was engaged by Kevin, that something special waa happening here. I think Kevin has a terrific mind, and I hope to meet more like him. Right on, Jon!
Jon Bernthal is a great interviewer!
When Jon said "Right", that hit different fr
love this show brother 💙💙
Incredible podcast and some amazing points that opened my mind to new perspectives. We definitely have to eradicate the idea that men shouldn’t show nor share emotions. Having it bottle up without release will only grow that cancer. Thanks to Joey Diaz’s Joint recent podcast, I found this gem as well. One of my favorite authentic actors. Keep making this golden content brother.
would love to see a podcast with some of the gents from the Pacific and your experience with it! Grandfather fought on the island of Guadalcanal and this is where as an actor I fell in love with your characters and acting ability. HERE is where we fell in love with your personality. Hated you in the walking dead but only because you did such a good job playing THAT character.
Thoroughly enjoy this guy’s channel/cast etc! Great actor who seems like a guy most people could grab a beer with, shoot the shit and leave feeling like you’ve know him for years.
What a measured, open and important conversation on race
Loved hearing this man speak
I really enjoy watching John bernthal. As usual best punisher hands down, and excellent in King Richard, AND FURY! Hope things are looking up for you!!🙌🏾😂

I am absolutely in dig with these "episodes" 😅🙏
jon berthal is one of the best actors of our life time 100% and wow what a great podcast .
Know what I like about John is he’s one of us period . Grew up fighting n struggling like me n my boys in the rough streets of Brockton ma . It’s not the same anymore but in the 80’s n 90’s it was nuts and I lived it but never got out thanks Johnny boy love the show
Big fan of Jon's loved all of his theatrical work and really hoping to see a third season of the Punisher! That role was made for Jon he is the punisher 1000% and made me really feel what he was going through and wanting to get the evil men in this world with a literal punisher, just a bad ass dude with zero quit and the will to go to any length to get the job done LOVE IT
This was beautiful.
Amazing podcast!!!!
dope.🙏 Thank you gentlemen, once again, 🙏 Inciteful, helpful, hopeful, inspiring.. ❤
Wow…Kevin has an amazing soul💪🏻👍🏻
Great podcast. Those Uvalde PD cowards need to take a listen to this. Training, training, and mindset will enable you to handle those difficult situations.
props to kevin man.. he's the real deal!
I've been bingewatching at work for about 2 days now. So dope. Wish I could join in m
Mr. Bernthal I think you could be the next Rogan that takes guests from all walks of life on your show. We need open discussion again whether we agree or disagree and I think someone like you could help make a big difference. Keep doing what you are doing love you as an actor and a man.
Great podcast brother. 👏✊
This is a real eye opener. Im a Veteran as well as a Firefighter/EMT, Iv been through alot of different traumas, even as a kid growing up in Chicago where I was shot 3 times when i was 14 years old gangbangin. It took me getting shot to make a change. But I often wonder why I chose a path of high stress activities like the military and public service. Now Im goin on 40 years old an I cant remember the last time I had more than 2 hours consist sleep. Im ate up with depression an god only knows what else. I think about suck starting my 9mm 12 times a day, but also count my reasons to keep moving forward. My 3 kids is the sole reason for my breathing today. I cant give them the life I never had if Im gone. Yeah I know I need help but dont know where to start, its still somewhat taboo for us men to show emotion, or your ridiculed for doing so. But I tool alot from this show right here. Thanks brother.

John. I feel what you’re saying. And respect your honesty. You’re not alone. And there are many men of service who need help. It’s out there. And there are many amazing groups / programs that can help. No Judgment. No shame. No guilt. Just men and women getting stronger through emotional exercises. Look into NeuroWave- brain treatment center. Veterans are sponsored. Great vids with testimonials on KZread Dr Mark Gordon - he ihas been on Rogan a couple times. A renowned neuro endocrinologist that focuses on brain health and optimization. Lastly - Save a Warrior. Jake Clark’s program helps first responders, law enforcement and veterans. Fully funded. And an amazing experience that helps us dig up rid us of the weight we carry.

Talk about a Super Hero!
Kevin is a wise man. Learning a lot from him.
I can’t believe more people don’t follow this guy
John....you old such n such... I love you my guy. I do. I appreciate your podcast more than I'm able to describe, so thank you for being such an amazing EDU-TAINER. Mr. Vance....you one of GODS MONSTERS. THANK YOU SIR!
So much insight and valuable reflection here. I wish everyone could take some time and think about that human actions are rooted in a lifetime and generations of experiences that all leads up to a moment. 00:47:57 When Kevin reflects on his wife's family experience and poverty, access/opportunity, and empathy it really hits home. This together with his own reflection around Kaepernick tacking a knee and what that means. 00:52:33👌
Just wanted to say Jon is so inspiring. And obviously Mr. Vance as well. Love this podcast.
I'm not one to want to meet famous people or musicians, but if I could ever meet and sit down and talk with anyone, it would be Jon. For being such and awesome and down to earth dude, he sure plays the perfect asshole in movies. Guys a legend to me
Kevin is a smart man. I definitely don’t agree 100% with some of his points but no doubt he’s a thinker and a very well spoken person.
My favorite one so far! Repping that Crenshaw too... r.i.p Nipsey Hussle I see u jon you're a real one
23:56 How an American should be defined is what this man says. Finding the good in customs of another culture and saying we should learn from that and make it into our American way.
Thanks to Uncle Joey for this find!
Jon yet again great interview guest respect his thoughts love way u do the casual natter like 2 mates down pub from lifeline English civvie LOVE ur KZread channel
Uvalde Texas... Vs... LA County.. Great Podcast… great content, great unedited dialog. Multiple takeaways, 1st one being the training that law enforcement officers get across the country varies drastically. Had small town Uvalde Texas, had the same kind of training, that LA county officers have regarding active shooter, school shootings... Those small town law enforcement officers would have had more knowledge to draw from, more experienced to react from, and more lives would have definitely been saved. Defund the police? I agree with Kevin Vance, wrong path to take.. GREAT JOB JON... and the Shai LaBeouf chat very real also!!
The best
LOOPING it's a great way to learn .
Fury is one of my favorite movies, the actors came to Fort Benning for a premier and all of them minus John were there and signed my 05 Iraq tour hat. Still need him to sign, LOL
Love the story's u have been covering bro I'm a current lstener
Hoo-Yah on the conversation on division - let's do this!
In the fire service we constantly do "live burn days" where its a metal structure filled with thick smoke a certain rooms with fire and we train on a variety of situations.. Sometimes they get hot enough to where u could actually die or be seriously injured if you took that mask off and breathed in the gases. The police could do something similar. Maybe the last two or 3 weeks recruits live at the academy working a beat shift with a TO. 8-12 hour shifts. Going out into the field and responding to calls portrayed by actors. 90% of the time its gonna be mundane but everytually theyll have their life or death situation to respond to, prolonged psych calls etc. That would take a lot of money though...
Nice
love the Crenshaw top on Jon,I wonder if he got it from Nipsey 's store.
