Description: Mark Direen is a former Australian Special Forces (SASR) soldier with a 20-year military career, including five deployments to Afghanistan. Wounded in an IED attack in 2007, he returned to duty just six months later. After leaving the Army in 2009, he worked in security at the Australian Embassy in Kabul before moving into expedition guiding across remote regions including Mongolia, Papua New Guinea, and Tasmania. His post-service life reflects his operational mindset: adapt, improve, and keep moving forward.Find Mark here:https://markdireen.com/https://pointassist.com.au/Mark's book:https://pointassist.com.au/product/whats-the-point/Bravery and Betrayal documentary :https://wanderingwarriors.org/bravery-betrayal-the-documentary/entary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3rS0h-pjqc---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Today's Sponsors:GhostBed⬇️https://www.ghostbed.com/houseFOR 10% off! The Perfect Jean ⬇️http://theperfectjean.nyc/HOUSE15for 15% off!!For ad free video and audio and access to live streams and Eyes On Geopolitics...JOIN OUR PATREON! https://www.patreon.com/c/TheTeamHouseTo help support the show and for all bonus content including:-live shows and asking guest questions -ad free audio and video-early access to shows-Access to ALL bonus segments with our guestsSubscribe to our Patreon! ⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouseNew merch, patches, and stickers! ⬇️https://theteamhouse-shop.fourthwall.comSupport the show here:⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouse___________________________________________________Subscribe to the new EYES ON podcast here:⬇️https://www.youtube.com/@EyesOnGeopoliticsPod/featured__________________________________Jack Murphy's new book "We Defy: The Lost Chapters of Special Forces History" ⬇️https://www.amazon.com/We-Defy-Chapters-Special-History-ebook/dp/B0DCGC1N1N/——————————————————————Or make a one time donation at: ⬇️https://ko-fi.com/theteamhouseSocial Media: ⬇️The Team House Instagram:https://instagram.com/the.team.house?utm_medium=copy_linkThe Team House Twitter:https://twitter.com/TheTeamHousePodJack’s Instagram:https://instagram.com/jackmcmurph?utm_medium=copy_linkJack’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/jackmurphyrgr?s=21Dave’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/dave_parke?s=21Team House Discord: ⬇️https://discord.gg/wHFHYM6SubReddit: ⬇️https://www.reddit.com/r/TheTeamHouse/Jack Murphy's memoir "Murphy's Law" can be found here:⬇️ https://www.amazon.com/Murphys-Law-Journey-Investigative-Journalist/dp/1501191241The Team Room Reading Room (Amazon Affiliate links):⬇️ https://jackmurphywrites.com/the-team-room-reading-room/Intro music by https://www.youtube.com/user/RemixSample"Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio"Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-team-house--5960890/support.
