A week ago a Marine Sergeant gave me the quote that sits to the right of this text.  I thought it was a profound piece of wisdom and so I went looking for the author.  His name is Geoff Hopf.  As luck sometimes has it, he’s a former Marine who fought in […]

THE ALL MARINE RADIO HOUR:  Gulf War TOW Gunner, underwater construction diver, bodyguard & the author of 37 books — meet Geoff Hopf

As an Infantry Marine, Geoff Hopf experienced a unique side of the Persian Gulf War we rarely hear about. Hopf's relatively small team was tasked with forming the first line of defense if Saddam Hussein decided to invade Saudi Arabia during the buildup of coalition forces prior to Operation Desert Storm. Left in the desert for week's on end, Hopf's team literally ran out of food at one point, while still carrying out the vital mission of defend and delay. The kick-off of combat operations would bring further perils as the chaos of war nearly swallowed up the small contingent of Marines. Following his exit from the Marine Corps, Hopf would embark on an equally unique career as a fiction writer. He has since authored dozens of novels, making a name for himself in both the post-apocalyptic and western genres. Hear about his unorthodox journey from Marine to best-selling author on this latest edition of HAZARD GROUND!www.gmichaelhopf.com | "The End: A Postapocalyptic Novel (The New World Series)" | "Vengeance Road" | "Nemesis: Dead Center (An EMP Surviv al Novel) (Nemesis Trilogy)"Support the podcast by supporting our sponsors at www.hazardground.com/sponsors!Shop Amazon!

Ep. 147 – Geoff Hopf (Marine/Author)

 Click here for EPIC timestamps and episode resources. Are we finally coming to an era where the apocalypse is near and we should be moving to another planet, just like movies have predicted it? Our today’s guest has seen the future multiple times. G Michael Hopf is the author of the acclaimed and international bestselling post-apocalyptic series The New World. He also has authored dozens of other post-apocalyptic and western novels and he is convinced good times create weak men and that it only occurs every 80 or 90 years. He is an expert in historical cycles and is pretty sure 2020 is the year of civil war.  Geoff lives with his family in San Diego, California and he is a veteran of the US Marine Corps, and he is here to teach us some major cycle lessons: The first 80-year cycle refers to how relevant warlike events take place, like the WWII and the US Civil War, and the second one refers to the change in political systems that happen every 250 years. This guy believes we are heading to the end of democracy in the US and that disarming population could be a bad idea, that nothing is for free and when people tell you is for free, it can always end up in tyranny.  From post-apocalyptic stories to developing strategies for resistance, this guy is a true believer in the power of storytelling, holding on to the truth and why we should be moving to another planet a while ago. Discover in this episode how educational systems have brainwashed, discouraged and disable your people, the reason sometimes we feel lack meaning and purpose, feel lonely, and how to channel struggle to grow as human beings, and the perfect moment to publish your written work and show it to the world.
