The Right Kind of Crazy

Navy SEAL, Covert Operative, and Boy Scout from Hell

By: Clint Emerson

Narrated by: Clint Emerson

Clint Emerson, retired Navy SEAL and bestselling author of 100 Deadly Skills, delivers a gripping Navy SEAL memoir packed with explosive, darkly funny, and real-life spy stories from elite special operations.

Clint Emerson is the only SEAL ever inducted into the International Spy Museum. Operating from the shadows, with an instinct for running towards trouble, his unique skill set made him the perfect hybrid operator.

Emerson spent his career on the bleeding edge of intelligence and operations, often specializing in missions that took advantage of subterfuge, improvisation, the best in recon and surveillance tech to combat the changing global battlefield. MacGyvering everyday objects into working spyware was routine, and fellow SEALs referred to his activities simply as “special shit.” His parameters were: find, fix, and finish—and of course, leave no trace.

The Right Kind of Crazy is unlike any military memoir you’ve ever read because Emerson is upfront about the fact that what makes you a great soldier and sometimes hero doesn’t always make you the best guy—but it does make for damn good stories.

Ignore the haters...

Ignore the haters leaving negative reviews, they are those that didn't make it through BUDS, or did 4 years and got out and pretend they're something special. Clint does a great job providing a detailed glimpse into his life as a SEAL, and clandestine operator. There are a lot of redacted parts, but Clint does his best to make them amusing. God bless bro.

Clint , thanks for a great book it is nice for someone like me to hear no nonsense ways of a real spy. I have both of your other books in paperback and audio .

great listen.

great the author is also the narrator. educational and entertaining. i highly recommend this audio book.

Not quite what was expected

Seemed like a genuine first hand and honest autobiography of someone interesting to hear about. Check out Warrior Poet Society on YouTube for some of Clint's tips.

Great Read. Fun and fascinating.

A fascinating read . I would recommend this book to anyone.
Informative and a unique story.

couldn't stop listening!

A great listen, too bad for all the redactions, but that's the government for you.

I hope you have a Grunt sense of humor

Not sure how I came across this book but it was well worth the buy. I am not in the military but husband has been for 25 years. He is an infantry officer, that and having 4 older brothers leaves me with a dude sense of humor. *warning do not listen to this book when driving in the car with your teenage son*
Many of the stories of things that soldiers do to each other are common. What isn’t common is the career that one can have in the military. Not everyone in the military has these super high speed super secret jobs which is why it’s cool to read about them.
I like many others, was super annoyed with the redacted parts of the book. But like the author said call your Congressman.
Great book, buy it for the cool stories and good laugh.
Next time your in town Clint give us a call we will meet you at the range and you can swap stories with another Emerson.
