Liberty Risk

Ep. 61 • TJ Webb • "Stripper Cop" Shot 6 Times, & 19 Years of The WILDEST Police Stories! 🇺🇸

On this episode of Liberty Risk, the guys sit down with TJ Webb - former K9 officer, US Marshals Task Force Officer, SWAT operator, author of Just One More, and a man whose law enforcement career sounds like a mix of all the best cop movies you grew up with. This dive into some crazy territory here, with some WILD new stories! TJ tells the story of responding to a house full of Russian women who mistook him for a male stripper and started ripping his police uniform off at the door - til they found out he was a real cop. A naked guy covered in Vaseline sprinting through Section 8 housing with a cell phone shoved up his 🍑 (apparently this was his hobby). Officers hosing down a drunk guy behind the police department with a garden hose before his girlfriend arrived. Pranking a fellow cop by putting his car on blocks while he was snoozing and then initiating a "shots fired" call. 😂 And somehow… those aren't even the craziest stories in the episode. Beneath all the chaos and dark humor is the night TJ was shot SIX TIMES during a fugitive warrant operation in 2020 - a gunfight that nearly killed him and taught him the meaning of what it means to FIGHT for your life - both during and after the bullets are flying. TJ breaks down the mistakes, the adrenaline, the recovery, and the mindset that carried him through nearly two years of rehab, surgeries, and rebuilding himself from scratch. Along the way, the conversation dives into: US Marshals fugitive operations and undercover narcotics work. SWAT, K9, and old-school policing stories. Getting shot six times and surviving against the odds. Mental health, resilience, and recovery after trauma. What he learned from David Goggins, Jason Redman, and the power of the "Just One More" mindset. Whiskey-fueled side quests and over the top cop stories Like every Liberty Risk episode, it's hilarious, profane, unfiltered, and all over the place - yet somehow finds a way to balance the raucous & outrageous stories with genuine human connection and camaraderie. One minute you're laughing at the "stripper cop" story, the next minute you're hearing what it sounds like when someone refuses to die.

Ep. 60 • Todd Sharbutt • A Warrior Finds His Way: From Desert Storm To DevGru, To Life Beyond The Teams

On this episode of the Liberty Risk Podcast, the crew sit down with Todd Sharbutt - retired Navy SEAL Master Chief, DEVGRU veteran, BUD/S instructor, and one of the true OGs of Naval Special Warfare. Todd's career spans the full evolution of the Teams. From punk rock clubs in Los Angeles and silk-screening shirts for bands like the Dead Kennedys… to Desert Storm… the early days of DEVGRU… 9/11… Afghanistan… Iraq… Hollywood… and ultimately veteran advocacy. And somehow, the stories are every bit as wild as you'd expect. Todd brings a rare firsthand look into old-school SEAL culture, Green Team in the 90s, BUD/S leadership, and life inside the command before and after the Global War on Terror. Along the way, there's no shortage of side quests - from sneaking into Kuwait City post-Desert Storm to behind-the-scenes film industry chaos on projects like Iron Man and The Last Ship. This one is loaded with: SEAL Team 3, DEVGRU, and BUD/S leadership Desert Storm, Afghanistan, Iraq, and early GWOT operations Old-school Naval Special Warfare culture and legendary Team stories Hollywood military advising, filmmaking, and industry absurdity Punk rock roots, outrageous stories, and decades of perspective But beneath all the humor, chaos, and incredible stories, this episode goes deeper. After decades of war, loss, and the invisible weight so many veterans carry, Todd opens up about ibogaine treatment, psychedelic therapy, PTSD, TBI, and why he's become a passionate advocate for helping veterans find real healing outside the broken conventional system. Like every Liberty Risk episode, it's hilarious, brutally honest, and completely unfiltered - but at its core, this is a powerful conversation about service, sacrifice, reinvention, and continuing the mission long after combat ends. From punk rock kid… to SEAL Team legend… to healing advocate.

Moe's path is anything but typical. From growing up in Montreal as a chronically sick kid, to completely rebuilding himself after becoming obsessed with Terrell Owens, to eventually sharing the screen with some of the biggest names in film and television - including a surreal full-circle moment where T.O. himself looked straight into camera and reminded Moe, "I'm the real T.O." 😂 Along the way, it gets ridiculous. Kevin unexpectedly showing up at Moe's hotel in Morocco just as he's heading for poolside drinks - only to drag him straight into desert combat training. A cast member pulling a 24-hour vodka marathon through Ramadan before wandering a belly dancing restaurant in Marrakesh introducing himself to strangers. Real Navy SEALs dropping the Hollywood act mid-scene when things went sideways during filming. Kevin accidentally losing his son in the Louvre. And somehow… that's just scratching the surface.

On this episode of the Liberty Risk Podcast, former Army Ranger Jon Wechter returns for round two - and if you thought his first appearance was wild, this one somehow goes even further. After one of our most talked-about episodes covering everything from Ranger Battalion, spirituality, psychedelics, and the search for truth, Jon is back - a little older, sharper, and with even more chaos, perspective, and hard-earned lessons. As always, nothing stays in one lane. From absurd Coronado mushroom-fueled adventures, Ranger Regiment stories, and military culture deep dives… to Blackwater, Afghanistan, healing, mentorship, and the deeper realities of life after years spent chasing intensity. Jon breaks down lessons from his time in 2nd Ranger Battalion, the brutal standards of Regiment, leadership, identity, and what happens when you finally step back and start asking bigger questions about purpose, growth, and who you actually are beyond the mission. This episode is packed with exactly what you'd expect: Ranger Battalion culture, RASP, and life inside Regiment Blackwater and Afghanistan withdrawal stories Wild military side quests, bachelor party disasters, and Coronado chaos Special Operations mentorship and preparing the next generation Psychedelics, healing, spirituality, and long-term transformation Like every Liberty Risk episode, it's hilarious, profane, completely unfiltered, and loaded with enough side quests to make your head spin - but underneath it all is a deeper conversation about brotherhood, self-discovery, and the constant evolution of identity after service. Jon's story has always been about growth, perspective shifts, and pushing boundaries.

Ep. 57 • Tyler Hoover • Controversy, Cop Stories, And Building A Life Behind The Mic 🎙️🏴‍☠️

On this episode of the Liberty Risk, the guys sit down with Tyler Hoover - Army veteran, former Florida cop, and you probably know him best as the founding member of the Anti-Hero Podcast - we dive into a raw conversation that goes way deeper than war stories and police calls. Tyler breaks down how his show took off - viral clips, controversial takes, and calling people out - and why that kind of growth comes with a cost most people don't see until it's too late. Because the audience you build on negativity isn't there for you. They're there for the next target. The conversation turns into a deeper look at audience psychology, long-term brand building, and why shifting direction isn't failure - it's part of figuring out what you're really trying to create. Of course we dive into some crazy stories along the way! Why Mortarmen are always the weird ones. 😂 Getting your house raided at gunpoint by cops on the 4th of July. Crazy stories from 82nd Airborne and Iraq. Humping mortars 12 clicks into the mountains only to fire exactly zero of them. The WILD things you see as a cop in Florida for 9 years. The homeless woman eating something that made a cop puke on scene. Why beat cops don't arrest the hookers and the open container guys - and why that's actually genius The reality behind "Florida Man," crazy mental health calls, and the moments that stick with you long after the shift ends. Like every Liberty Risk episode, it's unfiltered, full of side quests, funny anecdotes, and all the shenanigans you'd expect - but underneath it is a real conversation about growth, course correction, and building something with staying power.
