Acerca de esta escucha
Retired Navy SEAL Drago Dzieran takes listeners behind the scenes of his incredible life, from an impoverished childhood in Communist-controlled Poland to his time as a political prisoner, to his twenty years as a member of the United States military's most elite fighting force.
Everything I have, I owe to America—the greatest country in the world.
I have been fighting oppression and defending freedom my entire life. When I became a United States citizen, I felt it was my moral obligation to give back to this country and the people who had given me freedom. I wanted to serve my new country in the best capacity I could, so when the first Persian Gulf War broke out, I decided to join the military. During my Navy career, I performed over one hundred combat direct action missions in Iraq from 2003 to 2005.
My chance to live as a free man is only possible because of the ideals the founding fathers fought for and that have been carried forward to this day by Americans.
Every person has a voice, and every voice matters. I will continue to encourage others to get involved, stand up, and preserve and cherish the freedom and liberty we have in America.

The U.S./Mexican border stretches nearly 2,000 miles and is protected by a thin line of overworked and underfunded U.S. Border Patrol Agents, who risk their lives every day. Stigmatized in the media and fought over in the halls of Washington D.C., this is the true story of what is really happening on the U.S./Mexican border. Borderline provides an inside look through the eyes of former U.S. Border Patrol agent, Vincent Vargas, who is no stranger to violence, having served in Iraq and Afghanistan with the U.S. Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment.

Most people think that being prepared for catastrophe means stocking up on MREs and building a bunker in their backyard, but this approach leaves you vulnerable in the real world of car accidents, natural disasters, grid failures, and global pandemics. Prepared overturns today’s paranoid survival wisdom and teaches the foundational skills of preparedness that will not only help you build situational awareness and achieve greater mobility but that will also help you build resilient mental habits.

When a mysterious former South African commando begins taking wealthy hostages all over the world, it appears at first to be a typical ransom gambit. However, it soon becomes clear that Lucas Van Groot is not only making a fortune with his “Hostage Inc.” venture, but also manipulating worldwide stock markets and causing panic on Wall Street and at the Federal Reserve. Enter Black Box, the CIA’s most secret special operations branch—so surreptitious that not even the Director of CIA is fully privy to the unit’s activities.

In the predawn hours of March 4, 2002, just below the 10,000-foot peak of a mountain in eastern Afghanistan, a fierce battle raged. Outnumbered by Al Qaeda fighters, Air Force Combat Controller John Chapman and a handful of SEALs struggled to take the summit in a desperate bid to find a lost teammate. Chapman, leading the charge, was gravely wounded in the initial assault. Believing he was dead, his SEAL leader ordered a retreat. Chapman regained consciousness, alone with the enemy closing in on three sides, beginning the most difficult and exceptional fight of his life.

On September 29, 2006, Michael Monsoor and three SEAL snipers watched vigilantly for enemy activity from their rooftop post in Ar Ramadi, Iraq. When a grenade thrown from insurgents bounced off Michael's chest, he could have escaped. Instead, he threw himself onto the live grenade, shielding his fellow soldiers from the immediate explosion. Michael died thirty minutes later, having made the ultimate sacrifice. As George Monsoor (Michael's father) and Rose Rea show us in Defend Us in Battle, Michael had prepared for this selfless act all his life.

Tim Kennedy has a problem; he only feels alive right before he’s about to die. Kennedy, a Green Beret, decorated Army sniper, and UFC headliner, has tackled a bull with his bare hands, jumped out of airplanes, dove to the depths of the ocean, and traveled the world hunting poachers, human traffickers, and the Taliban. But he’s also the same man who got kicked out of the police department, fire department, and as an EMT, before getting two women pregnant four days apart, and finally, been beaten up by his Special Forces colleagues.

On September 11, 2018, Navy SEAL Chief Edward Gallagher - a highly-decorated combat veteran with nine deployments to war zones in Africa, Afghanistan, and Iraq - was arrested for war crimes at the TBI medical clinic where he was receiving treatment. His incarceration was the culmination of a year-long whisper campaign started by a group of disgruntled members of his SEAL platoon. While heavily covered in the media, the full story of how a war hero was railroaded and nearly sent to prison for life for crimes he didn't commit has never been told.

After a string of rejections from men who tell her they could never, ever, ever see her “that way,” awkward third-grade teacher Micaela Blei signs up for a mysterious course called “The Divine Feminine,” and feels like she might have found the key to the perfect life. Turns out if you’re an A student, you can get an A in anything–including men.

It took me a lifetime to have the courage and the clarity to write my memoir. I want to tell the story of the moments - the ups and downs, the triumphs and traumas, the debacles and the dreams - that contributed to the person I am today. This book is composed of my memories, my mishaps, my struggles, my survival, and my songs. Unfiltered. I went deep into my childhood and gave the scared little girl inside of me a big voice. I let the abandoned and ambitious adolescent have her say, and the betrayed and triumphant woman I became tell her side.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

A book every American should listen to
It has been years since I gave much thought to Communism and what it imposed on Central and Eastern Europe. My interest started when I became romantically involved with a CzechAmerican who came to the USA in 1985 to escape it. Since then she has told me about what evils it instilled in that part of the world. Drago's story confirms that and instills in me the pride as well as the gratitude of being an American.

Cautionary Tail and Inspiring Ending
Drago's childhood and early adulthood are a strong example of the dangers awaiting the USA. His strength, intelligence, and ability to overcome and be a shining example are commendable. I am grateful he took the time to share.

An American hero immigrant
Here is someone who experienced the reality of Communism, immigrated to the US and became an American, and who then fulfilled his version of the American dream. I thought this autobiography was informative, insightful, entertaining, and very relevant today.

Absolute Must Read
Absolutely a must read for any true blooded American. Excellent reminder of what makes this country great for those that do not have first hand knowledge of other countries and regions. Also a necessary reflection for consideration that we don't slide backward into socialist or communist state.

Patriot at his finest
What a fantastic, although traumatic, way to become an American citizen. I guess like going through SEAL training, they say when you truly earn it, you appreciate it all the more. I wish far more Americans had your heart, fight & determination. You deserve your retirement & your beautiful family. May God continue to shine on you. Thank you for your service, your love of America & for hope.

An American Patriot
Wow, Draco’s desire for freedom prior to coming to the USA. He didn’t really know what freedom was; but, that was what he wanted. Then when arrived in the USA he was so amazed and thankful for the, new to him, freedom that he had. Being so thankful for his freedom he wanted eliminate any threats to it. We owe him a dept of gratitude. As fellow US military veteran, Thank you!

True American Hero - Fantastic Book
Drago defines what it means to truly be American. This book is about one hell of a journey of becoming truly free and then serving in one of the most difficult and elite units in the US military. He paid for his freedom and then some! I'm proud to stand with Drago as an American. Thank you for your service!

Great book! Great American!
First heard him on a podcast, and when I found out he had a book coming out, I pre-ordered it! I was not disappointed. This book shows what a great country America truly is. From his humble beginnings in Poland, to his travel to America. Living the American dream that we are all blessed with. Made me take a moment to take stock of how blessed I truly am! Must read/listen to this book.
