Four with the Parachute Regiment, a decade in the SAS. Patrol medic and qualified mountain guide. Afghanistan, Iraq, and covert deployments. Jay Morton left in 2018 and went straight up the world's biggest mountains \u2014 two Everest summits, one of them solo. Everest comes up, and it isn't pretty. He stood on the summit alone in 2017. Now it's a queue of paying clients short-roped to the top, garbage stacked at Camp 4, two hundred grand for the VIP package. Nobody walks out anymore. They fly \u2014 on some of the sketchiest helicopter rides you'll ever hear described. We get into what nobody warns you about: leaving. In the unit, everything is built around you. Someone books the flight. You wake up knowing exactly where to be. Then it's gone, and you're staring in the mirror looking for the guy who used to handle all of it. We talk about chasing a bigger number in a bank account, then realizing a month later you didn't care about the thing you bought. Status versus utility. What his sister, a hospice nurse, heard people say at the end \u2014 and what they never said. Also in here: the reality TV machine, the hypocrisy of the silent-professional crowd, twelve coffees in a day, and where AI stops being useful.  Concept Expeditions: \u2060https:\/\/www.conceptexpeditions.com\/\u2060 Today's Sponsors:  Peluva:  10% off and use the following link: \u2060https:\/\/checkout.peluva.com\/CLEAREDHOT\u2060 Bubs Naturals:  For a limited time only, listeners  are getting 20% OFF at \u2060https:\/\/www.bubsnaturals.com\u2060 by using code "clearedhot"   ","author_name":"Cleared Hot - Powered By BRCC","author_url":"https:\/\/www.andystumpf.com","html":"
