If you want a better understanding of warriors, tribal societies,
human nature, and what we can learn from it all, this is for you.
My podcast guest is Sebastian Junger (@sebastianjunger), the #1
New York Times best-selling author of The Perfect Storm,
Fire, A Death in Belmont, War, and Tribe. As an
award-winning journalist, a contributing editor to Vanity Fair,
and a special correspondent at ABC News, he has covered major
international news stories around the world and has received
both a National Magazine Award and a Peabody Award. Junger is
also a documentary filmmaker whose debut film "Restrepo," a
feature-length documentary (co-directed with Tim Hetherington),
was nominated for an Academy Award and won the Grand Jury Prize
at Sundance. "Restrepo," which chronicled the deployment of a
platoon of U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan's Korengal Valley, is
widely considered to have broken new ground in war
reporting. Junger has since produced and directed three
additional documentaries about war and its aftermath. In this
episode, we cover rites of passage (and their importance),
warfare, the art of great non-fiction writing, PTSD, evolutionary
biology, and much more. Some of the topics will no doubt offend
many of you, and this is a good thing. I urge you to bite your
lip, if need be, and listen to the entire episode. There are gems
within, including hilarious stories, surprising statistics, and
tear-jerking epiphanies. Show notes and links for this episode
