New York NY, USA—Westwood One, America’s largest audio network, is adding the popular Team Never Quit podcast to Westwood One Podcast Network. Team Never Quit is a riveting one-hour weekly original podcast co-hosted by former Navy SEALs Marcus Luttrell and David Rutherford.

Team Never Quit is an authentic, positive, and inspiring show that implores listeners to face their greatest challenges. It features the incredible camaraderie between Mr. “Never Quit” Marcus Luttrell and energetic “Instructor Rut” David Rutherford, which not only comes from their time together on SEAL Teams but also due to their mutual ten years of inspiring audiences of all types.

These two Frogmen know what it means to never give up. Luttrell’s epic story of survival, relayed in his international bestselling book, Lone Survivor, and box office smash hit movie of the same title, has touched many lives. He returned to battle in Ramadi, Iraq in 2006. For the past 12 years, co-host Rutherford, a Navy SEAL/ CIA Contractor, motivational speaker, author, and performance coach has been inspiring people with his high-octane enthusiasm and unique brand of communicating. Together they are a living example of what they call the Never Quit mindset.
