Throughout the course of human civilization certain individuals have stood out as being completely f***ing awesome. From ninjas and gunfighters to pirates and Vikings, to explorers, scientists and great leaders, these people - true badasses - completely obliterated anything that stood in their path, routinely overcame seemingly insurmountable obstacles, and ultimately altered the course of history through their actions. Be it glory, conquest, or survival, these hardcore men and women all had one specific goal in life - and they didn’t let anything stand between themselves and their mission. They refused to back down even when the odds seemed hopelessly stacked against them, they came back from the brink of failure to achieve ultimate success, and they beat the fucking hell out of anyone stupid enough to have stood in their way. Badass of the Week is a weekly (duh) podcast, that dives into new stories of badasses every week.2024 High Five Content © 世界

    Gene Yu: No Orders. No Backup. One Rescue.
    2026/10/16
    A woman is kidnapped by terrorists. The official rescue effort stalls. And the person who knows the territory is a former Green Beret who thought his missions were behind him. When Abu Sayyaf abducted Evelyn Chang during a deadly raid on an island resort, Gene Yu had a personal reason to act: Evelyn was a friend of his mother’s. The West Point graduate and former Special Forces officer put his own money on the line, called on trusted comrades, and headed back toward the jungles of the southern Philippines without orders or military backup. Gene joins Badass of the Week to tell the story of the rescue, the decisions that could have gone disastrously wrong, and how the mission gave him a second shot at finding his place after the Army.

  • Quanah Parker: The Last War Chief of the Comancheria

    Quanah Parker: The Last War Chief of the Comancheria
    2026/10/09
    Quanah Parker was born between worlds—and became a master of both. As the last great war chief of the Quahadi Comanche, he led one of the final armed resistances on the Southern Plains, charging into the gunfire at Adobe Walls and fighting an industrial war machine with speed, terrain, and sheer nerve. When military victory became impossible, Quanah launched an equally audacious second act: statesman, cattle baron, political power broker, defender of religious freedom, and tireless advocate for his people. Ben Thompson is joined by Pushcart Prize–winning writer and professor Daniel Peña, author of How to Look Away: On American Cruelty and the Refusal to Disappear, to explore Quanah’s extraordinary life, the tragedy of his mother Cynthia Ann Parker, and the complicated legacy of a warrior who refused to let his people disappear.

    Rogers’ Rangers: America’s First Commandos
    2026/10/02
    Before the Green Berets or Navy SEALs, there were Rogers’ Rangers. During the French and Indian War, Major Robert Rogers forged an unconventional fighting force that could snowshoe through blizzards, operate deep behind enemy lines, and turn wilderness survival into a weapon. Then bestselling author Scott Sigler joins the show to discuss Beasts Beyond the River, his historical-horror novel that throws hardened colonial Rangers into a supernatural nightmare of mud, blood, gunpowder, and monsters.
