Description

I’ve had the honor to meet many a strong independent women in my life, and this episode was no exception. I sat down with Hollie McKay, author of “Only Cry For The Living” who has spent years covering the war torn Iraq/Syria region of the Middle East at the height of the ISIS onslaught. It was both inspiring and gut wrenching all at the same time, and really gave me a perspective reset that is always powerful and necessary to appreciate what we have and where we live.Sponsored by @jockofuel, @projectwarpath, and @resiliencecbd.And a very special thanks to Veteran Wood Company for the incredible display - www.veteranwoodco.com.----------Table of Timestamps:0:00 - Intro12:00 - Morning Routine13:45 - Growing Up Australian27:15 - Coming to America33:00 - Thoughts on Unbiased Journalism40:30 - Becoming a War Correspondent51:00 - Living On the Road1:08:30 - Reporting on ISIS1:22:00 - Presidential Changes1:36:30 - Russian Influence1:43:30 - Crimea1:47:00 - President Hollie McKay1:59:00 - How to Fix Democracy2:15:30 - Food Poisoning2:19:40 - Reflecting on Other Countries2:30:25 - Positive Stories From The Front2:40:25 - What’s Next? ----------To find out more about Hollie or to purchase a copy of her book ‘Only Cry For The Living’, visit her website at www.holliemckay.com or follow her on instagram and twitter @holliesmckay.----------Support our sponsors:Origin Labs | www.originmaine.com/origin-labs | @ORIGIN USA---Project Warpath | www.projectwarpath.com | @ProjectWarpathGet 15% off your next purchase with Promo Code MIKEDROP15 at www.projectwarpath.com---Resilience CBD | www.resiliencecbd.com/militaryandfirstresponderdiscount | @resiliencecbd---Apparel, accessories, protection dogs, and online training at www.trikos.comOnline dog training | https://teamdog.pet Team Dog Facebook | @TeamDogTraining Books, Blog, Media and more from Mike Ritland at www.mikeritland.com

The Mike Drop podcast is hosted by former Navy SEAL, Mike Ritland. It is a not so politically correct discussion of wide ranging topics that span from government, politics and war to health and fitness, from guns and survival skills to food and nutrition with music, BBQ and a touch of everything else in between. This is THE platform that is completely raw, totally unfiltered and in your face, while still intellectually sound with good intuitive dialogue between A-holes that know what they’re talking about.
