Thanks for the info, I want to watch more Mr Prince.

Civilian Warriors is an excellent book by Erik Prince. His story in his words one of the best books I’ve ever read.

I had the privilege to meet and have coffee with Erik's sister, Betsy DeVos, when she visited our coffee shop/roastery in WV while she was Secretary of Education. Her visit actually prompted a Cancel Culture event when our local Leftists got upset that we would dare serve her, let alone post on Facebook about it, lol. Well, as good business owners, we treat all our guests with honor and dignity regardless which party they belong to. Not to mention that we were (and are) enthusiastic supporters of Trump, his Administration and all the great things he did for our Country while President. Those was our best years in business. Now, we are struggling and barely treading water under the Biden economy. We need Trump back! Hey, Bryan. Could we work a deal for us to be a coffee sponsor on your Podcast? That would be an awesome opportunity for us! We've been fresh roasting and serving the best coffee in WV for 18 years. And we ship!

We were in Afghanistan fighting for 20 years and they couldn’t even hold a secure airport for a week as we were leaving. how much longer do we need to send our military guys over there and send them home dear or disabled before we decide to leave? We gave them 20 years and that is enough.

So when Trump bashes the military industrio complex and the nicky haley donors, he talks about erik prince and alikes. By the way erik is a donor for haley. So when he talks about oil and copper in Afghanistan and that american corporation should get it not the afghani people or Afghanistan no plainright say it it's ours and you wonder why nobody likes you. You're proud to bully a country get its ressources and enslave people😂😂😂😂

‘People fail to grasp the reality that prominent families and big corporations who make their fortune from wars would like nothing else in this world but for wars to continue, if possible, until the end of times.’ - Definitely not Sun Tzu War is horrible but profitable enterprise. - 100% military-industrial complex

BRYAN CALLEN IS STEPPING UP HIS GAME TENFOLD HAVING ERIK PRINCE ON HIS SHOW!

Erik is a very smart dude. This is a good conversation.

I love when Mr Prince is on anything he has so much knowledge about current events but also history he is taught me so much and I think he would be a great presidential candidate The experience he has the connections the knowledge the common sense and he knows what works because he's a man of history and doesn't want history to repeat itself like it is nowadays and people are oblivious that it's happening. Great podcast keep it up Bryan I love that he said he's one of the most misunderstood men in America for Erik keep up the great work love this!

Oh Blackwater keep on rollin. Mississippi moon gonna keep on shining on me......

you will always be relevant to me Bryan, thanks for all the lessons and entertainment over the years.

ERICK HAS ALWAYS BEEN HONEST WITH HIS EMPLOYEES, he's a good guy

Happy birthday, that was a great interview. As a veteran, he is so correct.

Erik epitomizes the warrior and American fighting spirit. BTW he neglected to mention that once Whittmore emptied his weapons he drew his sword and attacked until he was shot and subdued. Never quit, keep fighting the good fight.

I thought this would be a good podcast but now you're sitting there just giving yourselves compliments

How many dirty deeds have been justified with "I was just doing my job?" That's not meant to pick on contractors, or even military men. It could apply to anyone.

Having the best military doesn't end wars. That's laughable. But it does allow us to create the wars we want instead of being victims.
