Published on: 4th August, 2020

MOB 6 – Justin Sheffield pt 1

Senior Chief Petty Officer for Seal Team 6, author of the book MOB VI: A Seal Team Six Operator's Battles in the Fight for Good over Evil, where MOB VI is the official designation for Seal Team 6.

Senior Chief Sheffield has completed several hundreds of combat operations and enemy engagements in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Somalia. He is a recipient of the Silver Star, 6 Bronze Stars with valor for actions in combat, a purple heart, and a host of other medals and commendations.

First question, other than that short information I just shared, tell us in your own words, “Who is Justin Sheffield?”

Now, when you joined the Navy, you joined wanting to become a SEAL. But it was not just a goal to become a SEAL, you wanted to become part of SEAL TEAM 6, correct? Why?

What is the wash out rate for BUD’s?

Give us some brief examples of the BUD’s physical and mental tests they put your through that even the most physically fit men find it difficult to conquer…

In your book, you explain that once you had a couple of deployments under your belt, you applied for SEAL Team 6. How tough was it to be selected and then what was the evaluation and qualification like to be considered for Seal Team 6?

So SEAL TEAM 6 members are truly the best of the best?

When you talk to someone and they say something like, “I think I’d like to be a SEAL” – what advice do you give them?

Your brother was a Navy Seal as well, correct? When he said he was going to do it, what advice did you give him?

Let’s talk about your book, MOB VI: A Seal Team Six Operator's Battles in the Fight for Good over Evil Why did you write this book?

Folks, I’ve read Justin’s book, “MOB 6” from cover to cover. If you ever wanted to get just a glimpse of what it is like to be a Navy Seal from the inside perspective, this book is for you. You will not be able to put it down. Just use the link below to order your copy today. In fact, you need to order two or three. We need to support Justin and other veterans just like him. And we need you to order this book and give to someone you know as a gift. It is that good!

 

I also want you to support the “All Eagles Oscar” foundation. This great organization relies on the generous donations of people like you to ensure that we can make a difference in the lives of our combat veterans. There is no more worthy cause than to assist our nation’s heroes in recovering from the physical and sometimes the “invisible injuries” they received defending our great nation and protecting the freedom we all so deeply cherish.

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
