The Story

From Dublin To The SEAL Team

Born in Dublin, Ireland and raised in White Rock, British Columbia, AJ Buckley turned a love of storytelling into a three-decade Hollywood career. He's best known as Navy SEAL Sonny Quinn on SEAL Team (2017–2024) and crime-lab tech Adam Ross on CSI: NY (2005–2013), with roles across Supernatural, Justified, LaRoy, Texas and many more.

Off screen, AJ is the founder of Born of Discipline — a community built on Spirit, Mind and Body — and a serial entrepreneur driving ventures fueled by the same discipline that shaped his career. He's a devoted husband and father, and a tireless advocate for veterans.

The Show

Why The AJ Buckley Show

Formerly Real Fake SEAL, The AJ Buckley Show is where AJ has the conversations he actually wants to have — with actors, veterans, entrepreneurs, scientists and spiritual leaders. The kind of humans who make you rethink everything. Topics run from faith and God to the unexplained, biohacking, fatherhood, Hollywood, personal growth, and becoming a better human being.

Giving Back

Showing Up With Purpose

AJ isn't just showing up — he's showing up with purpose: giving back to the veterans who've sacrificed everything, and giving every child the chance to thrive. Partnering with AJ means joining a movement to spark hope, honor service, and change lives.

Built On Discipline
