Delta Force Operator Gets Brutally Honestly About Killing And War: VIDEO

Published|Updated

David Nielsen has lived a crazy life, and he sat down to talk with me about it.

The former Delta Force operator joined me in 2023 for an interview about his beloved dog Pepper being killed on a mission during the GWOT and his journey forward in life after so much death and carnage.

Dave's life was so fascinating to me that I knew I had to have him back. Well, he was kind enough to return for a new episode of "American Joyride" to go even further down the rabbit hole.

He's seen stuff the average human couldn't even begin to imagine. That's putting it lightly. Don't take my word for it. Dave is more than open when it comes to the highs and lows that come with killing in war.

As always, grab your favorite snack and drink, smash play and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
