Mostly true tales of barroom brawls, bad decisions, and near misses. From former Navy SEALs to your average badass, every story walks the line between chaos and comedy. It's the stuff that happens when the uniform comes off and the liberty clock starts ticking. Some made it out clean. Some barely made it out at all. Either way, it's one hell of a ride. Pull up a stool. This is Liberty Risk.

  • Storytelling in the Raw

    Feels like sitting around the bonfire with old friends exchanging life lessons, laughing at youthful indiscretions, and getting into those spaces that define a real human life. Real, funny, intense, informative, and deeply experiential. Never a dull moment. 👍👍

  • A Shot of Grit and a Dash of Hope

    I’ve been riding along since the beginning — every story, every laugh, every memory that sneaks out between the jokes. You start listening for the entertainment, sure. But somewhere along the way, it becomes something else. A kind of gospel for the weary — advice on how to stay human in a world that keeps trying to grind you down.
