Navy Seal Rob O'Neil Exposes The Horrors of War He Can't Unsee... | | DSH #1954

| DSH #1954 Rob O’Neill says war doesn’t haunt you the way people think it does. It’s not always the explosions. It’s not always getting shot at. Sometimes it’s the split-second decisions you can never take back. In this episode of Digital Social Hour, Rob O’Neill opens up about life after the Navy SEALs, the lessons he learned from combat, why PTSD is often misunderstood, and how the battlefield changes the way you see politics, money, America, and human nature. Rob breaks down what elite military training actually looks like, why ego gets people killed, how war becomes business, and why he believes most people are being pulled into narratives they don’t fully understand. This conversation goes from chess and Vegas to SEAL Team Six, Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, AI, capitalism, trauma, sobriety, psychedelics, and the hard truth about seeing the world too clearly.
