The Shawn Ryan Show

Jason Magnavice is a retired U.S. Navy SEAL with over 26 years in Naval Special Warfare. He spent eight years at SEAL Team 2 before being selected to serve within Joint Special Operations Command, operating in some of the most elite elements of the community for over a decade.

He deployed four times to Operation Enduring Freedom and four times to Operation Iraqi Freedom, serving as a sniper, tactical communicator, lead jumper, and team leader during the height of the war on terror.

During his time in special operations, he transitioned into a specialized aviation role, earning his Airline Transport Pilot certificate and later serving as a senior enlisted leader within that element. He finished his career coordinating recruiting for Naval Special Warfare.

Today, he flies a Gulfstream privately and holds a 767 type rating with a major freight carrier. He’s a father, a grandfather, and has chosen to live a quiet life with no social media, no book, and no brand.
