Episode 8: Bill Brown, Navy SEAL & Attorney
I had the absolute honor of speaking with Bill Brown this past week. Most of you know Bill by the nickname that David Goggins gave him - "Freak" Brown. The reason I wanted to interview Bill is because he is the man that lit a fire under David's ass and got him to perform at the highest level in Hell Week during BUDS.
Bill is now an attorney and has organized some of the best events to help take care of our nations veterans and first responders. Those of you that are able, I would ask that you look into donating to his events and organizations. The GI-Go fund is a big one, check them out!
Very grateful to call Bill a friend, and I can't wait to work with him more on future projects! Enjoy!
