Michael Yon is a Former Green Beret, Author, Photographer, and War Correspondent. After serving in the U.S. Army Special Forces, Yon retired his rifle in favor of a camera. He began his journalism career in December of 2004 in Iraq, covering some of the World's most complex conflicts and war zones. His writing and photography lead him to over 100 countries during his 20 year career. Most recently, he's been in South America covering an unknown path for illegal immigration into the United States: The Darién Gap.

The Darién Gap is a region that connects the Southernmost part of Panama and Northern Colombia. This area has become the preferred way of travel for hundreds of thousands of migrants since the late 2000's. The Darién Gap is largely unregulated and only maintained by a faltering assortment of NGOs and smugglers. In this episode, Yon breaks down how the region functions in illegal immigration and the growing threat it poses to U.S Sovereignty.

    I was in the Army for 10 years and prior to getting out I went on a “deployment” to Ethiopia. It was seen as a training mission. We were in the vast desert, I’m talking monkeys, donkeys, and giraffes all over the place. We slept in one man tents in the middle of nowhere during this training. The Ethiopian people were great and one day they asked us to take a walk with them they wanted to show us something. We marched through the open desert and got to the top of a mountain and they kept pointing into the distance. I got my binoculars out and what do I see? A HUGE industrial plant out there in the middle of nowhere. We asked the interpreter what that was and he told us the Chinese built it and they were also in the process of building a railroad a few miles away. It was such a crazy sight to see. With the knowledge from this episode and from what I’ve seen with my own eyes it’s almost clear that the Chinese are playing the long game, as well as setting conditions for eventual world domination. I know that can sound insane but what else could it possibly be??
  • This is possibly the most important guest you could have on right now.
  • @ericflatray4884
    Every single American who loves this country needs to watch the episode.
  • @TheyLive2024
    While listening I realized what a masterful interviewer Shawn Ryan is. He didn't interrupt Michael Yon's mind-blowing story, other than to ask him to expand on a topic. This shows true humility, another trait of a great host.

    Wife is a flight attendant and she has had many Africans on her flights coming from Canada to the US. It's from all sides. This will not end well for us here.
  • I'm from MCALLEN! I used to work in talk radio and had my own talk show, I wish I could have interviewed him! This was so eye opening! Also, as a Hispanic, there are LOTS of us who want the border SHUT DOWN. It's insane what this stupid administration has done to our country! We need to end catch and release, bring back Remain In Mexico and bring back 45!
  • Michael Yon was embedded with the infantry division in Mosul, Iraq when I was deployed there. His dispatches told the real stories of what was going on there, and I've been a fan of his ever since. Thanks SRS for what you do!
  • @mmperdue
    Michael Yon, deepest respect for everything you are doing and have done. A rare breed of a American
  • @anthonybly
    As an Army vet of 26 years, the wealth of information gained in this one podcast alone made my head hurt and for the first time made me think is there any way to stop this madness. Thoroughly enjoyed it and building a community is what I'm going to be about because you can't fight back if you don't survive.
  • @cindys6468
    I just want to cry listening to this. My heart breaks for our American citizens and our beloved USA.
  • I have a family of United States Military Service men and women! You bet your bottom dollar I shared this show to each and every one of them! The amount of information I learned in less than 2 hours is astounding! As Americans we must WAKE UP and put America 1st! My question is this… What can Americans do about this invasion? Is there anything we can do as citizens of this country to help?
  • @katlidstone3918
    Holy cow, finally someone's talking about the forthcoming fertilizer shortage! Thank you Michael. This is so important and no one's listening. I've beeen messaging pod casters for months asking them to talk about it and no one's talking. Sean, please keep on this.
  • @czarkhan3679
    This is the single most important Interview on the internet right now.
  • @jimmygoroar182

  • @rickhaller3328
    I love how he says ‘after Biden was installed’ not ‘after Biden was elected’. So spot on !
