Ep 17: SEAL Team & Mayans Star Michael Irby: From Soccer to Special Ops | Raw Truth About Hollywood
The man behind Betty Blue (The Unit), Master Chief Seaver (SEAL Team), and Bishop (Mayans MC) gets REAL about his journey from professional soccer player to Hollywood's most authentic military actor.
In this powerful conversation with The Vanguard Wall Podcast, Michael Irby drops truth bombs about:
- His career-ending injury that changed everything
- Training with real Delta Force operators for "The Unit"
- Why he turned down SEAL Team to join Mayans MC
- The brotherhood between him and Max Martini
- Being profiled after 9/11 and landing "Flight Plan" with Jodie Foster
- Why he refuses to pick sides in Hollywood's political games
"I'm not an actor. I'm a human being and this happens to be my job."
Watch as Irby reveals why military families stop him on the street 20 years later, his $500 leap to NYC that started it all, and the defining moment when his acting teacher said "You could make a living doing this."
This isn't your typical celebrity interview. This is raw, unfiltered, and authentic.
