  About six months ago, I got a call from a good friend of mine. A lot of you know him, DJ Shipley, former ST6 dev group guy. And he was really concerned about something that was happening to a very good friend of his. The US Navy was basically gunning this guy down and was going to ruin his entire life. Pull his rank, take his retirement, and his dignity and everything that he has. And that man, you guys know, is US Navy Captain Brad Geary. Served at dev group for a long time, was commanding officer at BUDs Naval Special Warfare Training Center.

• 1:45Shawn Ryan?

  That's where SEAL training happens. And DJ asked me to give him a voice. So I called Captain Geary and...

• 1:57Shawn Ryan?

  You guys know the rest of the story. We did the whole interview. We brought his attorneys on. We uncovered all of the evidence that the Navy refused to look at and did, conducted investigation after investigation until all of the evidence was covered up that it was not his fault. We're talking about the, the, the, rest his soul, the Kyle Mullins investigation, the BUDS candidate that died in BUDS, unfortunately likely due to performance enhancing drugs. But they took all the evidence that he was on performance enhancing, enhancing drugs and um, and got rid of it. They just re-investigated it until it was gone.

• 2:40Shawn Ryan?

  And then they tried to pin Captain Brad Geary to the wall. So today,

• 2:49Shawn Ryan?

  this letter came in. And I was the first one notified. "From Chief of Navy Personnel to Captain Bradley Geary, Commander Navy Region Southwest, Commander Naval Special Warfare Command. Notification of Administrative Show Cause: Dismissal.

• 3:13Shawn Ryan?

  One, following the show cause decision in reference A, you elected to appear before a Board of Inquiry. Since initiating this process and through legal counsel, you raised numerous manners to Commander Navy Region Southwest, which resulted in my decision to grant a continuance to afford you more time for preparation to ensure the additional information you requested would be available in sufficient time prior to the B O I. Two, since granting your last continuance, I have reviewed your case again and after careful consideration, determined that you are no longer required to show cause for retention in accordance with reference B.

• 3:58Shawn Ryan?

  Case dismissed." So I talked to

• 4:05Shawn Ryan?

  Captain Geary today and uh, he is obviously in amazing spirits. He's gonna get his retirement. He's gonna keep his rank and his dignity and his honor and with everything that guy's been through, you guys saw the episode. He's just a real American hero.

• 4:26Shawn Ryan?

  And he did want to say him and his attorney, Tim Parlatory, conference called me and said, you know what the catalyst with this was? You know what the changing of the tide was? It was the Sean Ryan Show. We got that out. It got well over a million views in no time. We rushed that episode out as fast as we could to get the attention. It was a major gamble. It could have had some severe consequences for Captain Geary.

• 4:56Shawn Ryan?

  But he wanted to roll the dice and I told him I will give him my best and I'll be damned. It worked. And he wanted to give a personal thanks to his legal team, starting with Cash Patel, the future FBI Director. My attorney, which I called to get on Brad's case, Captain Geary, Tim Parlatory, and then his original attorneys, Davis Yance and Mark Yesup. After the interview and after I, after we interviewed him, I got all, I called everybody I knew in Congress and Brad wanted me to thank these congressmen too, but I want to personally thank Eli Crane. Man, you have pulled through

• 5:42Shawn Ryan?

  so many times for me and just continue to do the right thing and you're not bought out by these fucking people, these lobbyists or whoever the hell is paying the rest of the congressmen, but Eli, I love you, man. And so, big thanks to Congressman Eli, Brian Mass, Nick Lolota, Morgan Luttrell, Corey Mills, and two senators, Mark Wayne Mullen and Toby Tuberville. Thank you, gentlemen, for coming to the aid of Captain Brad Geary. And Brad wanted to say one last thing and I tend to agree with him.

• 6:26Shawn Ryan?

  Thank you, Jesus Christ. And I want to say thank you to my team for turning that episode into what it did and all the attention that it got. Man, I'm gonna tell you guys something. So many times I hear people say, when we're sick of our government and we're sick of what's happening in this country, I hate it when people say, "Well, what can I do?" Well, let me tell you something, man. I started this show in my attic with my wife. Taught myself how to film, taught myself how to edit, taught myself how to run sound, and look at where we're at today. Look at what happened. This is because of one small team.

• 7:10Shawn Ryan?

  When we did Geary, when we did Captain Geary's episode, there were four of us, man. Four people. And look at the impact that had. So if you don't think you can make a difference, you are sadly mistaken because each and every one of us with a little bit of effort and putting your energy towards the right things can make a massive difference. Captain Brad Geary, congratulations, brother. I love you, man. Congratulations to you and your family. Cheers.
