I used to be able to download the mp3 from the website. Starting with 158, that link went away. If it’s still there, the option doesn’t appear obvious to me anymore. Did that feature go away or is it located somewhere else?
I’m using my desktop computer, at work, so I’m trying to stay away from iTunes and Google Play.
Curious where the download links went to? I put your podcast on my phone, when I muck stalls.
Thanks
I think “fear” = “respect” in certain scenarios.
Example: Using a table saw.
Hello!
Much respect from Finland!
Would apreciate alot if You would make podcasts available to be downloaded as it was before (older player or smth.). That way its easier to take them along on the phone!
Thank You guys for Your work.

Machiavelli’s principles on strategy and decision-making are timeless. The way Jocko breaks down ‘The Art of War’ really highlights how these ancient tactics apply to modern leadership challenges. The fear vs. respect distinction someone mentioned earlier is spot-on—it’s about understanding human nature and using that wisdom to lead effectively. Great episode that makes you think differently about everyday situations.
Absolutely brilliant breakdown of Machiavelli’s timeless principles! Jocko’s ability to connect ancient strategic wisdom to modern leadership is exceptional. The episode really drives home how understanding human psychology—whether it’s the fear vs. respect dynamic or strategic decision-making—can transform how we approach challenges in everyday life.
