    The Jedburgh Podcast

    The Jedburgh Podcast empowers leaders to achieve success on their journey to transform themselves and their organizations. Creator, Host and Special Forces Green Beret Fran Racioppi interviews the world’s most prominent visionaries, drivers of change, and those dedicated to winning.

    Each episode is an in-depth discussion with trailblazers who’ve earned success through a dedication to talent development, preparation, introspection, and the drive to get things done. Our conversation will empower listeners to define success and operate at an elite level, regardless of the task at hand. 

    In May 1943 the Allied Forces determined a new type of leader was required to win World War II. Operation Jedburgh parachuted three-man teams deep behind enemy lines to win no matter the challenge. Jedburghs lived by the mantra “how you prepare today, determines success tomorrow.”  Today’s leaders are no different.

    Fran speaks with leaders in public service, business, athletics, and academics about their personal leadership stories of success, failure, and the road to continuous improvement. Our discussions focus on the character traits of elite performance used by Special Operations Forces to recruit, assess, select and retain elite performers. Through this lens, we show listeners that success in any field must be earned every day.

    We strive for each listener to take valuable lessons learned and concrete action steps to improve themselves, their teams, and their organizations. Although developed and used by US Special Operations Forces, these characteristics are inherently applicable to building resilient and successful organizations in any sector or industry, as well as in the betterment of our personal and professional lives. 

    The Nine Characteristics of Elite Performance:

    -Drive: Growth mindset, be better than yesterday, continuous self-improvement

    -Resiliency: Perseverance in the face of challenges

    -Adaptability: Adjust one’s behavior to the situation

    -Humility: Recognize that you do not have all the answers; a willing learner maintains accurate self-awareness

    -Integrity: Understand what is legal and correct and align actions and words to both

    -Effective Intelligence: apply one’s experience and knowledge to the situation

    -Team Ability: Prioritize organizational needs ahead of oneself, work as a cohesive unit

    -Curiosity: Exploring the unknown, questioning the status quo in pursuit of better

    -Emotional Strength: Emotional control in stressful situations brings calm to chaos

    Fran Racioppi is the Founder & CEO of FRsix where he leads operations in critical infrastructure projects. He served 13 years in the US Army Special Forces as a Green Beret. Fran is passionate about building the world’s best leaders and the impact our special operators have in service and beyond. He holds a BA from Boston University in Broadcast Journalism and an MBA from NYU Stern, as well as the security industry’s highest accreditation as a Certified Protection Professional.

    The Jedburgh Podcast is an official program of the Green Beret Foundation, a nonprofit charitable organization dedicated to supporting U.S. Army Special Forces Soldiers and their families. The Foundation provides emergency and ongoing support across five pillars: Casualty Support, Health and Wellness, Transition, Family Support, and Gold Star and Surviving Families.

    #103: From Janitor To Tech Leader: Wodify Founder and CEO Ameet Shah (Sandlot Jax & GORUCK Games 2023 Series) Jun 27, 2023
    Show notes

    The most successful businesses solve a need. The most successful entrepreneurs identify opportunities and display the courage to take action; even if just to prove they just might succeed. Ameet Shah started his professional career as a janitor at Mars Chocolate. Today, he is the Founder and CEO of Wodify; the fitness industry’s leading customer retention platform.


    In this opening conversation from Sandlot Jax & GORUCK Games 2023, Ameet climbed into the 1944 Dodge WC-51 for a conversation with Fran Racioppi on his vision to empower CrossFit athletes to better track their workouts while providing CrossFit box owners the ability to manage and organize their processes and clients.


    Ameet explains the mental hurdles tech visionaries must overcome to develop a product that requires mass adoption and Fran challenges him to explain why bootstrapping the company has been a top priority and a key ingredient to profitability. Through its multiple services from customer retention to tracking to event planning, Wodify is breaking the mold in fitness software, showing everyone there is no such thing as “gymtimidation” and is now making its mark in Jiu-Jitsu.


    Learn more about Wodify on the web or at the 5000+ gyms that trust Wodify to run their business.

    DREW's WOD: Jumping In with Project D.R.E.W. & CrossFit Saol Jun 24, 2023
    Show notes

    Hero WODs come in all shapes and sizes; but every CrossFitter knows the greater the burn the stronger the bonds. “DREW” is quickly proving to be one of the most memorable for both its physical challenge and the story behind the workout.


    “DREW” is named in honor of CPT Drew Ferguson, who lost his battle with mental health after a distinguished career as a Green Beret in the Army Special Forces. Fran Racioppi sits down with Drew’s cousin Mike Winnen and the owner of CrossFit Saol Clint Weigel to share Drew’s workout, why 13 is so important and what it means to have both a buy-in and buy-out.


    All proceeds of DREW go to Project D.R.E.W., a Cleveland-based program bringing Veterans and songwriters together to tell their story through one of the most unique methods ever experienced; creating a song about your life. Fran, Mike and Clint relive Fran’s life changing experience at Project D.R.E.W. captured in last fall’s Episode 80 and tie in his song “I Press On.”


    In our battle against mental health struggles, it’s critical to build communities and share in ways that are memorable and long-lasting. If you struggle with mental health related concerns, reach out to Project D.R.E.W., get involved with your local CrossFit gym and strive to change your life one small step at a time. You are not alone.

    Delete The Adjective: Jumping In with Army Ranger LTC Lisa Jaster Jun 10, 2023
    Show notes

    Ranger School is the premier leadership development program in the US Army for tactical level leaders. It’s also the most grueling physical, mental and emotional challenge a Soldier can face. Many will try; but only a few will earn the coveted Ranger tab…a designation that for decades could only be sought after by male soldiers.


    In this episode, Fran Racioppi brings back fellow Ranger LTC Lisa Jaster; the third female to ever graduate from US Army Ranger School. Lisa is now the author of Delete The Adjective, A Soldier's Adventures In Ranger School.


    Lisa shares her journey as she failed each phase multiple times, only to request to try again. They talk about the importance of setting standards based on the requirements of the job instead of what we think a gender is capable of achieving. Fran defines the importance of a never quit attitude while Lisa shares her quit criteria.


    Adjectives live all around us, but only when we choose to use them to describe us instead of define us, is when we truly are ready to lead no matter the challenge.


    Special thanks to Longtab Brewing Company for hosting this conversation from San Antonio.

    • “I didn’t want to prove something, I just wanted to say ‘hey listen, we’ve been serving next to you.” (5:40)
    • “The military isn’t looking for the fastest. They’re looking for a standard. One standard based on the job that needs to be done.” (11:03)
    • “Would I want to share a foxhole with this person? Yes or no?” (14:53)

    • “At Ranger School I wrote out my quit criteria.” (26:33)

    #101: How to Brew Great Beer The Special Forces Way - Longtab Brewing Company Founder Dave Holland Jun 01, 2023
    Show notes

    The Original Special Forces Regiment needs a beer named The Originals. Then again, so does Det-A, Pineland, The Tribe, and of course the Jedburgh. Fran Racioppi travels to San Antonio to spend the day, and share a Jedburgh beer, with fellow Green Beret and Founder of Longtab Brewing Company Dave Holland.


    Dave founded Longtab out of a love for beer after a colossal failure of a home brew and to honor the legacy and lineage of US Army Special Special Forces, the Green Berets. Named after the iconic Special Forces special skill badge, Longtab has quickly become a landing spot for current and former special operators, as well as those looking to step into a history lesson on what it takes to be America’s most elite soldier.


    Fran and Dave cover what it takes to brew great beer in a classic German style, how Dave and his team weathered the COVID shutdowns just 66 days after their opening, how to complement great beer with great food and robust coffee, and why Longtab is committed to honoring the legendary Green Berets who gave their lives in defense of freedom.

    #100: USS Midway Museum - Founding President & CEO John "Mac" McLaughlin, RADM (ret) May 18, 2023
    Show notes

    An aircraft carrier is one of America’s greatest symbols of freedom and power. It’s a strategic asset in our national defense arsenal. It’s our greatest projection of combat power. It’s a city at sea. And for RADM (ret) John “Mac” McLaughlin it was a challenge he never expected.


    For our milestone Episode 100 of The Jedburgh Podcast, Fran Racioppi took over the Hanger Deck of the USS Midway Museum for a conversation with Mac on the history of the American aircraft carrier, the importance of the US Navy, what it was like to fly anti-submarine helicopters, and what’s next in the battle for naval supremacy.


    Mac also shares the story of the USS Midway; for decades America’s flagship carrier and host of many American Navy firsts. He explains his vision for the museum and how he led the team that built it from an empty ship towed into San Diego Harbor to one of the most visited tourist destinations in the United States.


    The USS Midway was built primarily by women in 1942 and later led the coalition in over 3000 sorties in the 1991 Persian Gulf War. Today the ship is tribute to all who serve America; especially those at sea.

She also explains how human trafficking is responsible for the abduction of thousands of Ukrainian children, as she believes Russia continues to suffer from population decline.
