Could America be just one generation away from losing its freedom? Former U.S. Army Special Forces veteran, author, and popular X personality C.T. Hill, better known as Green Beret Naptime, joins Karol Markowicz for a fascinating conversation about military service, American liberty, the dangers of tyranny, and his new military thriller, The Remnant War: Ashes of the Eagle, Book One.

Drawing on more than 15 years of experience in Army Special Operations, Hill explains how combat changes a person's perspective, why military service can provide young Americans with purpose and discipline, and how his real-world experience inspired a fictional story about authoritarianism and the fight to preserve constitutional freedoms. He also reveals why his views on the Russia-Ukraine war have changed, what Americans misunderstand about Special Forces, and why protecting individual liberty requires constant vigilance.

Plus, Hill shares his favorite books, the story behind his viral Green Beret Naptime account, and the powerful life lesson he learned from hundreds of publishing rejections: Stop waiting for permission, take action, and never let failure stop you.

Are Americans getting the truth about Iran, Hamas, and the Middle East—or are dangerous narratives shaping what we believe?

Can money really buy happiness, or are we chasing the wrong definition of success?

On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol sits down with John Coleman, co-CEO of Sovereign's Capital and author of Good Money: Six Steps to Building a Financial Life with Purpose, to explore why building wealth means nothing without purpose, meaningful relationships, and financial freedom.

Coleman explains why social media fuels unhealthy financial comparisons, how materialism and lifestyle inflation can undermine happiness, and why generosity may be one of the most powerful ways to improve your life. He also challenges conventional retirement planning, arguing that Americans should save for freedom rather than simply saving to stop working.

Plus, Karol and John discuss the importance of marriage and family, finding meaning in your career, values-based investing beyond ESG, and how artificial intelligence, robotics, and biotechnology could transform society over the next five years.
