In this episode of The Mike Drop Podcast, Mike Ritland sits down with Andy Stumpf, a retired Navy SEAL, podcaster (host of Cleared Hot), author of "Drown Proof: Eight Life Lessons to Keep Your Head Above Water," and adrenaline junkie known for his world‑record wingsuit jumps and helicopter piloting. They dive into hot‑button topics like the Shawn Ryan‑Dan Crenshaw legal drama, veteran infighting in the SEAL community, U.S. foreign policy missteps in Iraq and Afghanistan, government corruption, insider trading scandals, and the erosion of trust in institutions like the FBI. Andy shares raw insights from his military career, personal growth through jiu‑jitsu and aviation, and reflections on truth‑telling in a world obsessed with engagement, all while blending humor, hard truths, and calls for accountability. 00:00:00 - Andy Stumpf Returns 00:03:24 - Chris Beck Discussion 00:07:30 - Frenchie Health Issues 00:09:14 - Recent Book Read 00:12:26 - Costa Rica Trip 00:14:53 - Professional Identity Struggle 00:19:45 - Team Dynamics Lesson 00:20:15 - Time Travel Hitler 00:26:01 - COVID Restrictions Parallel 00:31:12 - Technology Prevents Today 00:32:08 - Paper Ballots Voter ID 00:35:33 - Favorite Quote 00:37:55 - Outgrowing Relationships 00:39:47 - Life Since 2018 00:44:20 - Montana Move Story 00:46:20 - Jiu‑Jitsu Start 00:51:47 - Belt Progression Experience 00:56:17 - Learning Curve Evolution 00:59:44 - Rolling With Wife 01:03:15 - Jiu‑Jitsu Dog Parallels 01:06:39 - Favorite Submission 01:09:06 - Competition Experience 01:10:05 - Skydiving Currency Loss 01:13:29 - Wingsuit Distance Record 01:20:15 - Wingsuit Speed Altitude 01:23:51 - Jump Exit Experience 01:27:34 - Rehearsal Importance 01:31:55 - Worst Jump Incident 01:39:47 - Afghanistan Tandem Chaos 01:43:53 - Legacy Expeditions Trip 01:45:11 - Seven Continents Jumps 01:52:41 - Helicopter Piloting Start 01:57:55 - Hobby Time Balance 02:01:36 - Military Reflection 02:03:17 - Book Drownproof Purpose 02:11:32 - Joe Rogan Experience 02:13:02 - Guantanamo Bay Discussion 02:14:22 - Iraq Afghanistan Reflection 02:18:28 - Bush Powell Rice Talks 02:21:52 - Israel Palestine Ukraine Involvement 02:27:21 - Washington Incentives 02:28:51 - Shawn Ryan vs. Dan Crenshaw 02:45:22 - Crenshaw Team Drama 02:51:18 - Tucker Carlson Episode 02:56:28 - Rob O'Neill Lawsuit 03:00:08 - Vetting Veteran Stories 03:04:40 - Charlie Kirk Assassination 03:06:47 - FBI Trust Cash Patel 03:10:53 - Venezuela Involvement 03:21:21 - National Guard Syria Deaths 03:23:18 - Illegal Orders Congress 03:24:36 - Social Media Congress Ban 03:27:59 - Australia Immigration Issues 03:36:32 - Wrap Up
