    Navy SEAL Framed For Murder | Tier1 Podcast

    Dusty Turner was granted parole in January 2026 after spending more than 30 years behind bars for a murder he has always maintained he did not commit. Growing up in a military family, Dusty achieved his dream of becoming a Navy SEAL at just 19 years old and joined SEAL Team 4 in Virginia. But in 1995, one night in Virginia Beach changed the course of his life forever, setting off a chain of events that would take him from one of the most elite military units in the world to an 82-year sentence in Virginia state prison. More than three decades later, Dusty is finally out and telling the complete story of what happened that night, the decisions that followed, the evidence that emerged years later, his fight for freedom, and what it feels like to rebuild his life after losing more than 30 years behind bars.

    Operation Red Wings, Fact or Fiction | Tier1 Podcast

    Former Delta Force Operator Brent Tucker sits down with investigative journalist Ross Schneiderman to take a deep dive into Operation Red Wings and the story that became Lone Survivor. Ross spent years investigating the mission, interviewing more than 100 people connected to it and reviewing official documents, mission records and other primary-source material. He brought that research with him. Could Operation Red Wings have been prevented? What warnings were raised before the mission? How accurate is the story most of us know? And what does newly examined evidence tell us about what actually happened on that mountain? Brent and Ross walk through the mission from planning and insertion to the compromised reconnaissance team, the firefight, the rescue attempt, Marcus Luttrell’s survival and evidence discovered afterward. More than 20 years later, there are still questions about Operation Red Wings. This episode takes a hard look at the evidence behind them. Watch the full episode and decide for yourself.

    Dogs Of War | Tier1 Podcast

    Former Green Beret and Delta Force operator Brent Tucker sits down with former 75th Ranger Regiment member Trent McDonald, who spent 9½ years in the Regiment and completed eight combat deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. At the center of Trent’s story are two extraordinary military working dogs: Benno and Layka. Benno went from nearly being written off as untrainable to becoming Trent’s trusted teammate in combat. After Benno was killed on his eighth deployment, Layka became the next chapter of Trent’s remarkable journey with military working dogs. This is a conversation about Rangers, war dogs, sacrifice, loyalty, and the bond between a handler and the dogs who serve beside them. #75thRangerRegiment #ArmyRangers #MilitaryWorkingDogs #Tier1Podcast Sponsors First Responders Coffee & Cask Company (FRCC) – 15 percent off with code TIER1 https://frcc.shop Human Performance TRT – 20 percent off with code TIER1 https://hp-trt.com Tasty Gains – 20 percent off with code TIER1 https://tastygains.com Brotherhood Blades – 10 percent off with code TIER1 https://brotherhoodblades.com Cloud Defensive – 30 percent off with code TIER1 Cloud Defensive matches 15 percent of each purchase to donate to the C.A.T.
