Podcasts about air force veteran

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to introduce you all to: Air Force Veteran, Former All-Source Intelligence Analyst, loving and devoted wife, UAP and HNI experiencer, humanitarian, non-globalist human rights efforts activist Michaela FacharA distinguished U.S. Air Force veteran, Michaela served as an All-Source Intelligence Analyst, including a deployment to the CENTCOM Air Operations Center in Qatar from October 2020 to May 2021. There, she processed mission reports, including anomalous UAP activity and instances of "blue on blue" information - revealing choke points in intelligence flow that she later went public with on to highlight systemic issues in information sharing. Her analytical sharpness - honed through high-stakes environments - extended to China-focused intelligence work, leveraging her Mandarin proficiency from time spent living in China earlier in life. Following her deployment, she interned with the Defense Intelligence Agency's Special Operations Division before diving into academia.At Georgetown University, Michaela earned her Master's in Foreign Service. Immersed in courses on globalization, international relations theory, realism, idealism, and social constructivism, she sought to dissect policy failures to prevent future missteps. Yet, in the year 2021, during this intellectually intense period, her path veered into the extraordinary. What began as accelerated insights and "downloads" escalated into a life-altering experience: contact with non-human intelligence (NHI).This encounter unfolded dramatically - marked by crumbling perceptions of space-time, urgent premonitions of nuclear risks, symbolic visions, and a surreal hospital sequence blending apparent government orchestration, psychological distress, and spiritual liberation. She encountered entities, received symbolic messages, and felt cosmic connections. Though initially attributed to potential mental health challenges, the experience ultimately liberated her spiritually, shifting her from a "normie" national security trajectory to one aligned with deeper truths.Today, Michaela walks her true path with fierce purpose. She envisions collaborating with trustworthy allies to liberate children from demonic influences and believes many courageous souls volunteered for this pivotal time to transition humanity away from globalist, satanic Illuminati control. CONNECT WITH MICHAELA: X: https://x.com/MichaelaFacharIG: https://www.instagram.com/michaelafachar/ CONNECT WITH FOCUS CONGO: IG: https://www.instagram.com/focuscongo/LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/focuscongo?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMjU2MjgxMDQwNTU4AAGnOFPJEb44ul3qAAyHFSaWXCFJFLReDuHR-jhCSJfI0ib6im99chksEXVuPVM_aem_7lD03RV2SsU1ofEYtyk9-gCONNECT WITH EMMA:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@imaginationpodcastofficialEMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.com OR standbysurvivors@protonmail.comMy Substack: https://emmakatherine.substack.com/BUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.coSupport the show

In November 2018, U.S. Air Force veteran Dominic Marino was found bound with duct tape and fatally shot inside his East Hartford, Connecticut home. His house had been ransacked, but valuables were left behind. His loyal German Shepherd was unharmed and neighbors said they never heard anything - not even a barking dog. Nearly seven years later, no one has been arrested. Was this a targeted attack? What were the intruders looking for? Was Dominic the intended target? And who still holds the information that could finally solve this case? Dig in with Margot, as she walks you through Dominic's life, the crime scene, the investigation, and the unanswered questions that continue to haunt his family.

Great Podcast with my friends from House In The Woods Jeff Shock and Jason Seavey. Jason, an Air Force Veteran originally from Maine and now planted in the Fox Valley with his wife, and Jeff proud volunteer and guide are gearing up for Sturgeon Spearing opener this weekend. They've got 13 veterans from across Wisconsin coming in to try their luck on the ice. That's what it's about camaraderie, purpose, and the outdoors. In 2023, I traveled to Maine and had a successful bear hunt with them. Firsthand experience: this organization is the real deal. Phenomenal mission. Real impact.

Malcolm Copeland, Air Force Veteran, in Episode 235 of the Transition Drill Podcast, his story addresses a reality most veterans face. The military gives you structure, identity, and momentum, but it doesn't guarantee relevance once you leave. His transition wasn't about replacing one job with another. It was about reclaiming control and creating his own structure instead of relying on someone else's. His story is a reminder that transition isn't a single event at separation. It's a shift in ownership.Malcolm isn't just an Air Force veteran; he's a master of transition who's navigated the high-stakes world of elite military units and the complex landscape of civilian entrepreneurship. In this episode dive deep into his journey from a curious kid in Long Island to a crew chief for the a famous jet in Hollywood history.Malcolm grew up in West Islip, New York, where he spent his days taking apart electronics just to see how they worked. That engineering mindset was his gift, but his life hit a major crossroads when he lost his father at just 13 years old. This unexpected loss pushed him to grow up fast and find a path that offered adventure and independence, so he enlisted in the Air Force at 17. He didn't just fix planes, he became an elite technician. From working on the block forties in South Korea to maintaining the CV-22 Ospreys that appeared in the first Transformers movie, Malcolm lived the high-tempo life of military maintenance.His career reached a pinnacle when he joined the Thunderbirds. In that world, precision isn't just a goal, it's a requirement. He learned that teamwork and structure can make the impossible happen, like swapping an F-16 engine in half the standard time to ensure a show never gets canceled. But Malcolm's story doesn't end on the flight line. After 14 years of service, he took a unique risk by appearing on the first season of Married at First Sight. While the show wasn't a match, his honesty on screen led him to his soulmate; she was from Germany. He moved overseas, mastered the challenges of a blended family of eventually six children, and finished his engineering degree and MBA.Today, back in the United States with his family, Malcolm's focused on the future of veteran entrepreneurship. He's the founder of Eighth Ascent, where he helps veterans launch business ideas in just 28 days. He's also a leading voice on how AI and automation will impact the workforce. He's helping veterans build businesses that are future-proof, ensuring they keep the purpose and passion they had in uniform. Malcolm's life proves that with the right azimuth, you can navigate any transition and build a legacy that lasts.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:https://transitiondrillpodcast.com/home#aboutQUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.comEPISODE BLOG PAGE AND CONNECT WITH MALCOLM:https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.com/post/air-force-veteran-malcolm-copeland-on-thunderbirds-and-military-transition-drill-podcastSPONSORS:GRND CollectiveGet 15% off your purchaseLink: https://thegrndcollective.com/Promo Code: TRANSITION15Blue Line RoastingGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://bluelineroasting.comPromocode: Transition10Frontline OpticsGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://frontlineoptics.comPromocode: Transition10

Stephanie Bacue is a U.S. Air Force veteran, short-term rental investor, and founder of Simply Welcome Stays.

In this week's Your Next Mission ® video podcast, SMA Tilley welcomes Kevin Weaver, Co-Founder, President & CEO of The Warrior's Journey, and U.S. Air Force Veteran, for a powerful conversation about peer-to-peer support, the invisible battles Veterans face, and the importance of connection, purpose, and community beyond service. 

Want to be a guest or know someone would be a great fit? I am looking for military vets, active duty, military brats, veteran service orgs or anyone in the fitness industryYour body isn't a mystery box—and “that's normal” is not a medical plan.In this episode, we sit down with Tierra Duncan, Air Force veteran, women's health educator, and author of The Birth Control Illusion, for a straight-talk conversation about what so many women were never taught: how our cycles actually work, what birth control really does, why endometriosis is often misunderstood, and what's happening during the hormonal shift of perimenopause.With clear language and zero fear-mongering, Tierra breaks down estrogen, progesterone, and ovulation—and shows how understanding them can turn confusing symptoms into actionable information. We trace her journey from the flight line to health advocacy, and explore how military culture's “mission first” mindset often trains women to ignore pain, fatigue, and mood changes as background noise.Tierra explains why the pill's “withdrawal bleed” isn't a true period, how synthetic hormones differ from bioidentical options, and what informed consent in women's healthcare should actually look like. We also dig into endometriosis as a full-body condition, the role of prostaglandins in pain, and why symptom severity doesn't always show up on scans.Rather than prescribing a one-size-fits-all solution, this conversation focuses on building a strong foundation—sleep quality, strength training, adequate protein and fiber, and stress boundaries—so you can decide if labs, hormone therapy, or other interventions belong in your plan.If hot flashes, brain fog, low libido, or cycle chaos have you wondering where to start, this episode gives you a practical checklist for smarter care: track your symptoms, clarify your goals, and walk into appointments with better questions and better language. You'll leave reminded that clarity is power—and that feeling vibrant at every stage of life is not too much to ask.Find Tierra's resources and book details in the show notes.

In this episode of The MisFitNation, host Rich LaMonica welcomes U.S. Air Force Veteran Peter Gunn — a bodybuilder, poet, guitarist, and visionary creative on a mission to awaken minds and restore artistry to storytelling. Peter's story spans 20 years of honorable military service, a lifelong passion for poetry, and a deep spiritual journey inspired by a near-death experience at age seven. He's the founder of LLP (Linked-Lyrical-Poetry), creator of The Amazons series — rewriting the hero's journey through a feminine lens — and the visionary behind the Sigma Squad graphic novel series based on ancient Gnostic texts. Now, as the lead guitarist for The Angellics, Peter blends philosophy, poetry, and rock to explore themes of awakening, courage, and consciousness. Their debut album Hazing Hades dropped on August 17, 2025, marking another chapter in his creative evolution.

This week, Big Chief takes a heartfelt ride on The Whiskey Trip with two remarkable guests — Seth Fuston, U.S. Air Force Veteran and Co-Founder & President of Staves of Honor, and Eric Lytle, dedicated First Responder and Board Member. Together, they share the story of Staves of Honor, a nonprofit built to support veterans, first responders, and law enforcement officers through fellowship, charity, and the shared love of whiskey. What began as a small brotherhood of service members has grown into a nationwide movement — pouring hope and purpose back into the lives of those who've sacrificed so much. As a veteran himself, Big Chief understands the challenges that come after service — the search for belonging, the weight of the memories, and the need for community. Over two incredible barrel picks from The Blendery, the three men raise a glass to those who serve, protect, and continue to lead with heart:     •    “Final Ryde” – an undisclosed blend of 75/21/4 bourbon, 60/36/4 bourbon, and 95/5 rye whiskey, finished in a 15-year-old “BuffTurkey” barrel.     •    “Razz Hunny Pie” – a beautiful mix of 60/36/4 Indiana bourbon blended with a 51/45/4 bourbon from Green River, finished in an 18-year-old Barton 1792 barrel. With each pour, they talk about the mission, the meaning, and the magic that happens when whiskey brings people together for something bigger than themselves. So pour one with us, take a deep breath, and join Big Chief, Seth, and Eric as they toast to service, healing, and brotherhood — because at Staves of Honor, every pour has a purpose, and every sip honors sacrifice.

Peter Gunn is a man of many chapters—each one more powerful than the last. A U.S. Air Force veteran with 20 years of honorable service, Peter is also an avid bodybuilder, coffee connoisseur, lead guitarist for the band The Angellics, and a poet determined to revive epic literature for a modern generation.His journey has been shaped by extraordinary moments:At age 7, a near-death experience gave him a sense of divine purpose.At 12, he overcame morbid childhood obesity.In 2010, becoming a father inspired him to reimagine the hero's journey by including the feminine voice—leading to The Amazons poetry series and his invention of LLP (Linked Lyrical Poetry).In 2020, the pandemic awakened his mission to create The Sigma Squad graphic novel, rooted in ancient Gnostic texts and the fight against darkness.In 2025, he joined forces with German musicians to form The Angellics, currently producing their debut album.This conversation goes beyond biography—it's about resilience, creativity, and a relentless drive to serve humanity through art, music, and storytelling.If you've ever wondered how poetry, music, and faith can collide with raw life experience to inspire change, Peter Gunn's story will leave you motivated and thinking deeper.https://www.petergunn.net/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Thank you for tuning in to I Am Refocused Radio.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Peter Gunn, author of the book The Amazons. Peter Gunn is a U.S. Air Force Veteran and served his country proudly for over two decades. His unique writing style comes from a love of poetry and considers himself to be a poet first before being a content writer.   In my book review, I stated The Amazons is a YA fiction that is a cross between historical fiction and fantasy - all done in verse! Peter invented LLP - linked-lyrical-poetry. LLP has the flavor of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, Shakespeare's sonnets, and hip-hop/rap music. However, unlike Homer and Shakespeare, The Amazons is easy-to-read and understand.   The Amazons is a perfect introduction into epic poetry - but be sure to have a dictionary handy. In order to keep the rhyming scheme going, Peter relies on his extensive vocabulary (and a thesaurus or two!).   In addition to his unique style, I loved his storytelling and how he linked the history of England after the Napoleonic Wars to the fabled Amazons who supposedly lived in Peru. The story is fun, fast-paced, and filled with adventures. And for those who get hooked on the style, Peter has planned a series and is working on Books 2 and 3.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Peter Gunn Website: https://www.petergunn.net/ Tiktok: @petergunnpoetry   Purchase The Amazons on Amazon: Ebook: https://amzn.to/4lyT6if   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

We have published 120 episodes since 2019. For this new season, we thought it would be a good idea to look back on some of the highlights of our conversations and select 20 episodes that resonated with veterans, service members, military families, and the civilians who support them.But first up, you'll hear from some of the folks at Home Base who wake up every day with the same mission in mind, no matter what they do at the Center of Excellence in the Navy Yard and beyond. For this episode, you will hear a brief conversation with Air Force Veteran and Regional Associate Director, Regional & Tribal Relations, of Home Base Arizona, Marcus Denetdale. Marcus has been instrumental in facilitating Home Base's partnership with ASU's College of Health Solutions to launch the Warrior Health & Fitness program for Arizona Veterans and their families. He has worked closely with tribal Nations and communities in various capacities. As a nonprofit administrator, he has developed college scholarship programs, recruited Native American college students, and secured research grants for higher education projects totaling over $2.4 million. Marcus has studied civil, environmental, & sustainable engineering within the sustainability specialty area. His research areas include tribal housing, infrastructure & commercial buildings for economic growth and opportunities. His latest project is partnered with ASU to provide safe water access on the Navajo Nation.Following my conversation with Marcus, you'll hear part two of an episode from 2023 with the Pulitzer Prize and Emmy winner Cartoonist, Garry Trudeau. Ron and Garry talk about gaining the trust from military leadership during wartime, with the opportunity to visit Kuwait during the Gulf War after getting the call directly from the battlefield, and how just like visiting Walter Reed, these are chances to Get it Right in order to follow him or her from service member to veteran and from deployment to home. They discuss how he's not really that guy who could ever really tell a joke, and where his humor seems to come from, about his love for putting on a show ever since he was a little kid, and how he shares the mission to support veterans with fellow cartoonist (among other things), Jake Tapper.Run To Home Base: Join Ron and his team and sign up individually or on another team at the 16th annual Run To Home Base on July 26th, 2025, at Fenway Park!

When I was serving in Afghanistan, it was always mission first. You have to get the “scared” out of your mind. I told myself that God put me here for a reason. -Erica Horan By popular demand, we're reissuing a handful of our most popular interviews. Meet Boston Medflight www.bostonmedflight.org nurse and US Air Force veteran, Erica Horan. Recorded 5 years ago in a hangar at a municipal airport just outside of Boston, this interview tells the story of a former black belt champion driven to serve and succeed. A veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom, Erica became a commissioned officer in the Air Force as a critical care nurse shortly after earning her nursing degree. She saw every kind of injury on the front lines in Afghanistan, and speaks candidly about her own struggles with depression and the need for mental health support for our troops. Says Erica: “I counted the days until I got home, but when I got here, I didn't know what to do with myself. I wanted to go back. I didn't receive mental health support, and had a hard time adjusting.” Born to care for others, Erica has been a key player on Boston Medflight's four medical teams for 7 years now and is incredibly proud of the people she works with. “We take care of very sick people as quickly as possible. Every day is different, and we work 12-hour shifts. You don't know what you're gonna get. We all have to keep learning at this job because medicine is changing every day.” Married to a surgeon who commutes from a military hospital in California back to his family in the Boston area every week, the couple has 3 children they are devoted to. Says Erica: “If I can raise three good human beings who are respectful, inclusive, and God-fearing, then I've made it. That's success to me. “ From war stories to love stories, patriotism and purpose, this interview has it all.
