Behind The Scenes Of Special Forces (ft. Ali Manno)

Ever wondered what it’s really like to be pushed to your absolute limits? In this episode, Golden Tate sits down with his good friend and former Bachelorette star, Ali Manno (Fedotowsky), to share their wild ride on Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.

From Ali’s intense prep work—including cold plunges and physical training—to the brutal physical challenges and mental hurdles they faced, they're breaking it all down. They also talk about the incredible camaraderie that kept them going. Plus, they're pulling back the curtain on what went down with the less glamorous side of it all: freezing showers, tight living quarters, and even manure in the middle of Wales. Most importantly, they reflect on the powerful lessons they learned about strength, leadership, and what it really means to honor our military heroes. It’s raw, real, and full of laughs and surprises. Hit play to join the conversation, and let us know your favorite part in the comments! Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share the love.
