The Roof Man: McDonald's Rooftop Heists, a Daring Prison Escape, and Living Inside Toys "R" Us | Ol' Dirty Basement PodcastIn this Ol' Dirty Basement Podcast episode, the hosts discuss Jeffrey Allen Manchester, aka the “Roof Man,” whose Army 82nd Airborne training and McDonald's management experience helped him commit a string of late-1990s rooftop break-ins and morning armed robberies at McDonald's across multiple states, often locking employees in walk-in freezers and calling police to free them. After being caught in North Carolina in 2000 and sentenced to 45 years, he executed a bold 2004 escape by hiding under a delivery truck. Instead of fleeing far, he secretly lived for months inside a Charlotte Toys "R" Us and later created a hidden room in an abandoned Circuit City next door, built surveillance with baby monitors, and planned a post-Christmas Toys "R" Us robbery. He was identified, attempted to destroy dental records, and was arrested in January 2005, receiving a 40-year sentence with release expected in 2036, after later escape attempts in 2009 and 2017.00:00 Podcast Cold Open00:21 Holiday Rain Talk00:34 Mandalorian and He Man01:09 Meet the Roof Man01:46 Urban Dictionary Detour02:37 Manchester Origins05:18 Army to Civilian Struggles09:21 McDonalds Roof Robberies11:06 How He Pulled It Off17:25 Marker18:01 Caught and Sentenced22:16 Prison Escape Masterplan26:52 Toys R Us Hideout30:09 Mall Memories and Cameras36:15 Church Alias and New Life38:08 Hiding in Plain Sight39:27 Holiday Heist Setup41:01 Circuit City Nostalgia43:32 Living Under the Stairs46:03 Day After Christmas Robbery46:51 Lair Discovered and Arrest52:07 Breaking Down the Mistakes57:54 Sentencing and Parole Math59:35 McDonalds Breakfast Tangent01:06:17 Shrinkage and Inventory Gaps01:09:04 Wrap Up and Next Pick

Hour Three opens with reflections on kids growing up and Missouri's early voting kicking off tomorrow, with Mark making his final case for Amendment 4 ahead of the August 4th election. Guest Tanya J. Powers joins to break down New York's data center moratorium and the transparency questions surrounding these massive facilities coming to Missouri communities. The hour hits its peak with Senators Eric Schmidt and Josh Hawley dismantling Biden DOJ clemency aide Liz Oyer over her recommendation to free Charleston church shooter Dylann Roof and the rest of federal death row, paired with a real update on the Firehouse 35 flag controversy as the Fire Department finally responds. Kim on a Whim closes the hour with a satirical take on United Airlines catering to Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers who don't want to land at the newly renamed Trump International Airport. Sharp commentary, real accountability, and plenty of laughs — that's Hour Three of the Marc Cox Morning Show.

Powers (Fox News Radio, data centers)

Monday's Marc Cox Morning Show opened with Mark and Kim fresh off a big weekend — Mark catching a Rush concert in Chicago and swinging by Obama's much-mocked Presidential Center, Kim celebrating watching baby Everding grow up. From there, the show never let up: Missouri's no-excuse early voting launched a national conversation about election integrity, with Mark making his passionate case for Amendment 4 to protect the state Constitution and walking listeners through Amendments 5, Prop U, and Prop C ahead of the August 4th election. Kim on a Whim delivered two standout segments — defending homeschooling families against leftist attacks and mocking United Airlines for catering to Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers dodging Trump International Airport. The St. Louis Morning Brief kept it local with a parasitic diarrhea outbreak, a viral flag controversy at Firehouse 35 that ended with an official Fire Department response, and a troubling road rage shooting downtown. Guests brought real depth: Nicole Murray covered gas prices topping $4 amid Iran tensions, Tanya J. Powers unpacked the data center fight spreading from New York to Missouri, and Tom Ackerman broke down Spain's World Cup triumph and the Cardinals' playoff push. The political fireworks peaked with Senators Eric Schmidt and Josh Hawley's takedown of Biden clemency aide Liz Oyer over the release of Dylann Roof, while Andrew Cuomo warned that the Democratic Party's socialist drift could be a gift to Republicans. The show closed with Tom Homan's comply-first message on ICE enforcement and one more push to get out and vote informed. Faith, family, freedom, and Missouri common sense — that's another Monday in the books for the Marc Cox Morning Show.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 3 (7.15) Eric Deutsch of SmartFocus.ai joins Timmy to break down the latest on daylight saving time — he ran an AI-powered focus group on the measure Congress is considering to potentially get rid of it altogether. You’ve probably seen the wild viral video of the bearded grandpa in Yellowstone who lured a bison away from his grandson and got thrown eight feet in the air — 65-year-old Carl McDaniel is now sharing details after breaking his femur in four places. Savannah Guthrie had quite the year: Throat surgery, her mom Nancy was kidnapped (and we still don’t know the full story), and fun fact — she met her first husband at the Michael Jackson trial! Chipotle is boldly opening its first location in Mexico (in Monterrey), even though Taco Bell and Domino’s both famously failed and pulled out of the country. Monterrey might not be the usual Cabo or Puerto Vallarta tourist spot, but it’s worth a look. There’s a new blood test that can predict your likelihood of developing Alzheimer’s, and over 11,000 Californians must retake their DMV driving tests due to a major glitch.

The UK government has become so ideologically captured, they will need to rewrite a 1971 law before they can deport Shabir Ahmed, ringleader of the Rochdale child grooming gang who was set free on early release this month. Nick Freitas, retired Green Beret and author of The Manbook, just returned from the UK and tells Dr. Drew how a once-great country ended up with a two-tier justice system. Ahmed was sentenced in 2012 to 22 years for multiple offenses as the leader of a gang that targeted girls in Rochdale. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood said that to deport Ahmen, first the UK government must change Section 7 of the Immigration Act 1971, which currently shields Commonwealth nationals who arrived before 1973 from removal. Nick explains what institutional capture looks like when protecting a narrative outranks protecting children. Also on today's show: Wynton Hall — managing editor of Breitbart News and author of CODE RED: The Left, the Right, China, and the Race to Control AI — on the US-China AI arms race. Hall argues that as the US restricts its most powerful models over safety concerns, China is racing ahead and using American AI tools to run influence operations.

Join the Veterans Breakfast Club for a conversation with retired Army Colonel Frank Hancock, commander of 1st Battalion, 327th Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) during Operation Desert Storm, about his remarkable new book, Operation Desert Storm: How Two Young Intelligence Analysts and an Infantry Battalion Changed the War in Iraq. At the heart of the book is an extraordinary story that has remained untold for more than three decades. Just 48 hours before the 101st Airborne launched the largest helicopter air assault in American military history, two young intelligence soldiers—Captain Jose Delgado and Sergeant Jesus Gonzalez—discovered a critical flaw in the division's battle plan that had escaped every higher headquarters. They identified an Iraqi bunker-and-trench complex directly in the landing zone of the lead assault company. Their discovery forced commanders to revise the plan at the last minute and may well have prevented a devastating disaster. That dramatic episode opens the door to a much larger story. Hancock takes us inside General Norman Schwarzkopf's bold “Hail Mary” offensive, which sent the 101st Airborne deep into Iraq to sever the Euphrates Valley in one of the most ambitious operational maneuvers undertaken by the U.S. military since the Inchon landing during the Korean War. He explains how the division planned and executed the largest helicopter air assault in U.S. history, what worked, what nearly went wrong, and why the operation became a defining moment in modern American warfare. Drawing on recollections from soldiers throughout the battalion—from privates to colonels—Hancock reconstructs the operation from every level of command. Along the way, he also explores a larger question: How did the U.S. Army recover from Vietnam? Desert Storm showcased an Army that had spent nearly two decades studying its failures, rebuilding its doctrine, embracing new technologies, and developing leaders capable of executing extraordinarily complex operations. The campaign's stunning success did not happen by accident—it was the product of lessons painfully learned after Vietnam. As always, we'll leave plenty of time for audience questions, comments, and stories. Veterans, family members, and all who wish to learn are warmly welcome.

Episode 500 is here! To celebrate this milestone, the Shat Crew commemorated the occasion with a limited-edition Episode 500 Mission Patch, created as a special thank-you to listeners who helped us reach 500 movies. Get yours at www.shatpod.com/movies/patch while supplies last. For the 500th episode of Shat The Movies, Gene and Big D lace up their inline skates and head to Cincinnati for Airborne, the 1993 coming-of-age comedy that somehow blends fish-out-of-water humor, street hockey, aggressive inline skating and a roster of future stars.  Starring Shane McDermott alongside a young Seth Green and Jack Black, Airborne is peak '90s comfort food—equal parts sports movie, teen comedy and time capsule. The guys revisit the film's unforgettable Devil's Backbone race and debate whether Mitchell Goosen is the coolest kid ever dropped into the Midwest or just the luckiest. Along the way, they discuss rollerblading's brief moment as the future of extreme sports and why Airborne has become one of the great forgotten cult classics of the decade. Is Airborne an overlooked '90s gem that deserves to roll alongside the best sports comedies of its era, or is it simply nostalgia doing all the heavy lifting? Join us as we celebrate 500 episodes and an incredible community of listeners who've been along for the ride. Plot Summary: After moving from sunny California to Cincinnati, teenager Mitchell Goosen struggles to fit in at his new high school until he befriends a group of Rollerbladers and finds himself caught in a rivalry that can only be settled with an epic downhill race through the city's steepest streets.

LIVE from Largo in LA, Scott Aukerman (Comedy Bang! Bang!), Kumail Nanjiani (Eternals), and Danielle Schneider (Bitch Sesh), help Paul discuss Seth Green's clothing montage, seeing the romantic lead of a movie take a shit, impressing bullies by showing them a butt, if Devil's Backbone encompasses all of Cincinnati, and so much more.

Can thirteen letters from an 88-year-old stranger bring a dead film back to life?For two years, Heroes of Carentan, Christian Taylor's documentary about the 101st Airborne Division and the June 1944 liberation of Carentan, sat on a shelf, half made. In this episode she tells the honest story of why a WWII documentary stalls, what it costs to keep going, and the thirteen letters from an 88-year-old man in France that finally gave the film its heartbeat back.In Episode 281 of Documentary First, Christian Taylor takes listeners inside her upcoming film for the first time. Part 1 is how Heroes of Carentan fell apart, and how it came back. Part 2 travels to Normandy, where the letters came to life.Christian walks through the three walls that stalled the film: a story that had all its pieces but none of the feeling, a modern-to-historical framing device that turned into a cage, and the reality of self-funding a documentary, including a Covid disaster loan she wished she'd never taken. Then comes the breakthrough, hidden in two years of research, and the moment she remembered Yves Marchais, who was six and a half years old when the 101st Airborne liberated his town.In this episode, you'll learn:Why a documentary can have every piece in place and still feel dead on the screenHow a timely framing device can quietly become a liability that dates a filmWhat self-funding a documentary can mean, and the loan no one talks aboutWhy the story of the Battle of Carentan was not workingHow going back to the research, not the footage, broke a two-year blockWhy pointing the camera at the people the soldiers saved changed everythingWho Yves Marchais is, and why his memories reframed the whole filmHow thirteen letters from an 88-year-old man gave the film its heartbeatWhat separates Heroes of Carentan from The Girl Who Wore FreedomWhy the cost of war, carried in one person, became the true subjectCHAPTERS0:00 A letter from Carentan0:32 Why this episode is for you1:19 Heroes of Carentan and The Girl Who Wore Freedom1:50 Normandy's gratitude, and where this show began2:46 Two years on the shelf: the three walls2:57 Wall 1: all the pieces, none of the feeling3:41 Wall 2: the framing that became a cage4:34 Wall 3: self-funding, burnout, and the loan no one talks about5:48 The breakthrough hiding in the research6:32 Point the camera at the ones they saved7:08 Meeting Yves Marchais8:27 Thirteen letters from a child of war10:25 The heartbeat, and off to NormandyFrequently Asked QuestionsWhat was the Battle of Carentan in June 1944?The Battle of Carentan was fought from June 10 to 14, 1944, days after the D-Day landings. The U.S. 101st Airborne Division fought to take the Norman town of Carentan, which linked the Utah and Omaha beachheads. After crossing an exposed causeway under fire, the Americans forced the German defenders out on June 12, then held the town against a counterattack with help from the 2nd Armored Division.Who liberated Carentan in World War II?Carentan was liberated by the U.S. 101st Airborne Division, the Screaming Eagles, in June 1944. The 501st, 502nd, and 506th Parachute Infantry Regiments and the 327th Glider Infantry Regiment spearheaded the fight, with Lieutenant Colonel Robert Cole leading a famous charge along the road nicknamed Purple Heart Lane. In addition, tanks from the 2nd Armored Division helped repel the German counterattack on June 13.What is the documentary Heroes of Carentan about?Heroes of Carentan is a feature documentary by filmmaker Christian Taylor about the liberation of Carentan, France, in June 1944, told through the people who lived it. After a two-year production stall, the film was rebuilt with the help of Yves Marchais, who was a six-year-old child during the battle and later wrote thirteen letters recounting his memories. It is Taylor's second feature, following The Girl Who Wore Freedom.Why do documentary filmmakers self-fund their films?Documentary funding is famously hard, and self-funding is common because otherwise many projects would never get made. Filmmakers often cover early costs themselves to show commitment before grants or investors come in. The current climate is tougher than usual, with the closure of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and cuts to PBS shrinking traditional support, so many filmmakers now rely on personal savings, credit, and small donor communities.Who is Yves Marchais?Yves Marchais is a French civilian who was six and a half years old when the U.S. 101st Airborne Division liberated his town of Carentan in June 1944. Now 88, he wrote thirteen letters to filmmaker Christian Taylor recounting his childhood memories of the occupation, the bombing, and the American soldiers who saved his family. His testimony became the emotional center of the documentary Heroes of Carentan.About Heroes of CarentanHeroes of Carentan is Christian Taylor's second feature documentary, currently in production. It tells the story of the liberation of Carentan, France, in June 1944 by the 101st Airborne Division, seen through the eyes of French civilian Yves Marchais, who lived through it as a six-year-old child.About The Girl Who Wore FreedomChristian Taylor's award-winning first documentary, about the gratitude the people of Normandy still carry for the American soldiers who liberated them. This episode includes a short clip from the film featuring Valerie Cardin and Marie-Pascal Legrand.

Every option, as soon as possible. It's what the Consumer Affairs Minister is demanding after findings this morning showed asbestos in contaminated children's play sand can be airborne. One of the options Cameron Brewer has asked for could be a total ban on the products. His urgent meeting with officials today came hours after AUT released its results from a world-first study. Some every-day parents whose children played with contaminated sand, now face fresh worry. Kim Baker Wilson reports.

Gen. Barry McCaffrey on the Danger of Thinking War Can Be Easy. Plus: Trump, Greenland & the US as a ‘Predator Nation'. Reflections on the End of Iraq. Independents Week Replay Gen. Barry McCaffrey doesn't do polite. In this replay conversation from the Independent Americans vault, the retired four-star general and MSNOW national security analyst sits down with Paul Rieckhoff to name what almost nobody in Washington will say out loud: the U.S. armed forces — the most trusted institution in American life — are being politicized from the top down, federal law enforcement is being militarized to the point of being indistinguishable from an infantry assault, and the guardrails that once separated a constitutional republic from a government of gangsters are cracking in real time. McCaffrey brings the receipts of a lifetime — Vietnam as a young lieutenant, the Joint Staff, three administrations on the National Security Council, and a hard-won view of what happens when political leadership sends troops into fights it doesn't understand. The conversation ranges across the militarization of ICE and the 11th Airborne on standby, the humiliation of Davos, the quiet withdrawal of the last U.S. troops from Iraq, the collapse of trust with Canada and NATO allies, and the dangerous new fantasy — post-Venezuela strike — that war can be clean and bloodless. McCaffrey is blunt about the opposition being incoherent, about institutions being hollowed out, and about why 40% of the country still backs Trump anyway. But he closes with a story about a French counterpart that lands like a punch: when you're in trouble, we'll be there. If you care about what the military is for, who it serves, and whether America can still be the good guy, this is the briefing to sit with. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Visit Kalshi and trade on anything.

Researchers have found that the asbestos in recalled children's play-sand can readily become airborne. AUT Associate Professor Terri-Ann Berry spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Airborne asbestos has been detected in New Zealand testing on children's play sand products that were the centre of massive recalls. Kim Baker Wilson reports.

In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Green Beret and Special Forces operator Tu Lam, founder of Ronin Tactics. Tu Lam opens up about escaping genocide in Vietnam as a refugee child, floating on a boat at three years old left for dead, and how that early survival forged the resilience that carried him through 23 years in the military. From the 82nd Airborne to Ranger School, Special Forces selection, the deployment in Okinawa, and eventually the top tier of army special operations working alongside the CIA, Tu Lam built a career at the tip of the spear. But the war came home with him. In this episode he speaks honestly about a decade of opioid addiction, the hate that made him proficient in combat but a horrible human being, a traumatic brain injury, suicidal thoughts, and the total loss of identity that hit when the uniform came off. This is also a story about climbing back out. Tu Lam breaks down the practical tools that rebuilt him, from journaling and tracking emotions to their root thoughts, to meditation, gratitude, meditations on death drawn from the Tibetan monks, and ultimately his surrender to faith and his walk with Jesus Christ.

A solid transition plan does not guarantee a clean landing. Guest Taamir Ransome left the Army with advanced education, real-world experience, and a strong résumé, but he still felt the loss of identity, purpose, and daily mission after taking off the uniform. This conversation follows Taamir from joining the Army after 9/11, serving in the 82nd Airborne, moving into EOD, supporting special operations, and becoming the first Black Tier 1 EOD operator. From there, the focus turns to the part of service that follows veterans home: the pressure, the silence, the missing pack, and the struggle to explain combat stress to people who only know the military through movies. Taamir also breaks down ideas from his book Mind of a Soldier, including why the uniform is not your identity, why veterans need people who will call them out when they are slipping, why "thank you for your service" can shut down a better conversation, and why filing for benefits or walking into a VFW can be part of fighting for yourself. This episode gives veterans a practical reminder that help exists, but you may have to approach it the same way you approached the mission: gather information, find the right people, and take the next step.

Outside Podcast (ft Erin Azar) - https://open.spotify.com/episode/2SK5AmH8lUvTiH4OetTCOb?si=mbgf9wzBQOmGisJ6iz55NwPaddy O Sucks at... - https://youtu.be/qeJgFji7MbQWe kick off this episode by wishing a happy World Rainforest Day before diving into some baffling off-season beach etiquette at the Jersey Shore. From there, we recount a legendary "chaos week" that culminated in four disasters striking at the exact same time: a major panic over migrating ink on a test shirt, a refrigerator hose suddenly bursting and flooding the floor, and a frustrating email officially delaying a book release to next fall.Next, we tackle the current parenting trend of glorifying the "90s summer." The stress continues with a wild story from the bed and breakfast. After a storm knocked out the power while the owner was three hours away at a wedding, Erin had to blindly navigate a pitch-black inn to help confused guests, dealing with dead 1980s flashlights.We are then absolutely thrilled to welcome Patty O'Connell from the Outside Magazine podcast and Outside TV's Patio Sucks At... series for an incredible interview. We dive into his favorite classic sports movies like Airborne and The Mighty Ducks, discuss the gatekeeping in serious outdoor sports, and laugh about scrapped footage, like the time a lack of snow ruined a dog sledding shoot. Paddy also opens up about the FOMO of balancing his freelance adventure career with fatherhood, and he plays a rapid-fire game where he officially confirms that surviving the middle seat in economy and changing diapers are, in fact, sports. Wrapping up the show, we discuss the terrifying nature content taking over our algorithms, specifically the lethal poison hemlock plant and the meat-allergy-causing Lone Star tick spreading across the area. We also examine the bizarre marketing behind a 24-hour underground treadmill ultra-marathon hosted in a decommissioned London tank factory, as well as a runner "bio-modding" his super shoes with ropes and pulleys to try and sprint 40 mph. Finally, our "No Bad, No Sad" segment features a wholesome video of a wild elk playing soccer with a kid in a Colorado backyard.

A fresh mini-series on command and control that looks at the future of C2 for each of the US fighting arms. This episodes kicks off the deep dive with a look at what the US Army is aiming to achieve. Recently retired Vice Chief of Staff US Army, General (rtd) James Mingus talks about the US Army's philosophy for command and control, next generation C2, how allies and partners can get on board, and the opportunities that arise from the US Army's top modernisation priority for industry as well as soldiers. General James Mingus has recently retired as Vice Chief of Staff of the US Army. No one gets four stars without qualifying in just about every way possible – and Jim Mingus is no exception. Starting in the US National Guard in 1981, he commissioned in 1985. Originally a Second Lieutenant in the field artillery, he switch to the infantry in 1987 on becoming active duty. Serving in Germany with 3rdInfantry Division, later in the 82nd Airborne at Fort Bragg, and after that in 75th Ranger Regiment. A tour at JSOC, command of a Ranger Regiment, and command of a BCT from 4th Infantry Division including a combat tour in Afghanistan were just some of the highlights. Indeed, Jim deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan a total of 12 times in his career. In 2013 he ran the Commanders Action Group at CENTCOM before returning to 4 Infantry Division as Depuy Commanding General for Manoeuvre. Service at the Pentagon and on the Joint Staff rounded out his career before becoming Vice Chief of Staff of the US Army in 2023. There are few people better equipped to talk about the US Army's command and control, and their ambition for the future. Disclaimer: All remarks and comments made by General Mingus are his own views and do not represent the US military, US Joint Staff, Pentagon, Departments of Defence, War, or those of the US Army.

This was a really special episode for me. If you've followed past episodes, you'll remember Major Eric Czaja and his wife Angela, and the Regenerative Grazing Open Air Lab (R-GOAL) about Camp San Luis Obispo — a first-of-its-kind program letting transitioning veterans learn about regenerative agriculture through adaptive grazing aboard a military installation. Eric and Angela invited me out to Camp SLO for a two-day Ranching for Profit course hosted by Noble Research Institute, and while I was there, I got the chance to sit down with the R-GOAL interns themselves — in- person, for the first time in the show's history. This conversation includes Major Eric Czaja, plus six members of his team from across the services: Chelsey Chevez (Marine Corps, intelligence specialist), Jacob Isom (Army, 101st Airborne), Omar Huerta (Marine Corps, field artillery cannoneer), Matt Ammel (Army, Special Forces), Eric Morris (Air Force, aircraft mechanic), and Miles Hatch (Cal Poly student and the program's first non-veteran team member). As Eric Czaja put it, framing why this program exists at all, "160,000 service members leave the service every year. Where do you get involved in agriculture? We want to be that opportunity for veterans — which is why we're all here." In this episode, we talk about how the program is scaling from one base to three (Camp Roberts and Fort Hunter Liggett are next) and the leadership lessons each of these folks carries from their time in uniform, or their time in this program and before, into the day-to-day work at Camp SLO. I also get the chance to have a conversation with a group of veterans about a topic that still doesn't get enough attention — an honest discussion about suicide, loss of purpose, and how so many of these folks have found that purpose again through this program. Again, this was a really special episode for me. Enjoy!

Born in Grand Junction, Colorado, our guest's story begins in the rugged working-class towns of the American West and South—places where grit wasn't optional, it was survival. Raised in a coal mining family, with both parents working under his grandfather and a father who spent years as a roughneck, he grew up surrounded by hard labor, discipline, and resilience. Life wasn't always easy. His father battled alcoholism and could be harsh at times, but through the chaos came lessons in toughness, accountability, and perseverance. Sports like hockey, baseball, and football became an outlet during an otherwise grounded, blue-collar upbringing that would shape the man he would later become. In December 2004, he enlisted in the U.S. Army, beginning a journey that would forever alter the course of his life. After completing infantry school and Airborne training at Fort Benning, he earned his place as a sniper with 1st Squadron, 40th Cavalry. Deployed to Southeast Baghdad in 2006, he endured the brutal realities of combat, surviving multiple near-death experiences and earning two Purple Hearts after a bombing and a devastating VBIED attack on his patrol base. The scars of war followed him home—both visible and invisible—and the battle for survival didn't end when the deployment did. What came next was a downward spiral few saw coming. Struggling to adjust after the military, one bad decision led to another—eventually pulling him into addiction, drug dealing, and a prison sentence that could have defined the rest of his life. But in June 2017, everything changed when he got sober from opiates and began rebuilding from the ground up. After his release, he met the woman who would become his wife, started a family, and rediscovered his faith. Today, while continuing to battle a liver disease connected to illnesses contracted during deployment, he stands as a living example of resilience, redemption, and the possibility of rebuilding a life after trauma, addiction, and war.   Find Cody Instagram https://www.instagram.com/cody.boden/   Find The Suffering Podcast The Suffering Podcast Instagram Kevin Donaldson Instagram Apple Podcast Spotify Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Andre Williams joins Patrick Bet-David for an unfiltered conversation on the future of Black America, breaking down his concept of "black fatigue" and the cultural issues he believes are holding communities back. Raised in Detroit and heavily influenced by his grandfather, a 44-year Navy veteran, Williams explains how his upbringing, service with the 82nd Airborne, and experience building an audience despite repeated social media bans shaped his worldview. From crime and education to family, politics, and identity, the 25-year-old commentator argues that accountability and leadership, not excuses, are the path to lasting change.———Ⓜ️ CONNECT WITH ANDRE WILLIAMS ON MINNECT: https://bit.ly/4eewbad

Last night Trump was booed at Madison Square Garden and fell asleep in his luxury box during the NBA Finals. Taxpayer money paid for the whole spectacle while American paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne sit in Israel waiting for Netanyahu's order to storm Kharg Island.. The Albanians are handling their business and beat us to 110, while Zionist traitors sign away American blood and our military to Israel. Jeff Berwick joins me to expose this fake Rothschild outpost that's merged with America — time to wake up, get a plasma machine, build resilience at TZLA.club, and start acting like the Albanians before these parasites drag us into the abyss.

In this episode we're joined by General Christopher Donahue. General Donahue has led Soldiers at all levels in Airborne, Ranger, Light and Mechanized units, including service with 3 divisions, the 75th Ranger Regiment and USASOC. He has deployed 20 times in support of operations in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, North Africa, and Eastern Europe. He now serves as Commander Allied Land Command and Commander U.S. Army Europe and Africa.   General Donahue talks about the importance of character in leadership, especially as our world becomes more technologically advanced. He also talks about the importance of a winning mindset, building a team and fostering a culture of accountability, as well as how critical continuing development and learning is.

Patrick K. O'Donnell describes how after destroying the guns, the Rangers of Dog, Easy, and Fox companies established a thin defensive line along the coastal road between Omaha and Utah beaches. Isolated and without the expected reinforcements from Force C, they faced immediate and ferocious German counterattacks. German doctrine emphasized immediate offensive response, and the Rangers soon found themselves fighting in shallow shell holes and hedgerows as hundreds of German troops charged their positions. The combat was brutal; several Rangers were captured or killed as the Germans overwhelmed portions of the L-shaped defensive perimeter. Ranger Elrod Petty, a tenacious combat soldier with a Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR), was instrumental in holding the line as men from other companies fell back in disarray. The situation was so dire that Lieutenant Colonel Trevor, a British commando observer, admitted he expected to be killed or taken prisoner by morning. The Rangers gathered any Americans they could find, including stray paratroopers from the 82nd and 101st Airborne divisions, to bolster their defenses. Relief finally arrived on June 8 when the 5th Ranger Battalion and elements of the 116th Infantry broke through from Omaha Beach. However, the link-up was marred by tragedy; because the isolated Rangers were using captured German MG42s due to a lack of American ammunition, the relief forces mistook them for the enemy, resulting in friendly fire casualties.

Army infantry veteran Tyler Hoover shares the truth about serving in the U.S. Army, going through airborne school, deploying to Iraq, surviving the constant threat of EFPs and IEDs, and trying to come home after war. Tyler opens up to Urban Valor about Army basic training, the culture shock of infantry life, Fort Bragg, the 82nd Airborne, Baghdad in 2008, convoy missions, lead truck gunner danger, post-deployment drinking, losing friends, and the reality of veteran reintegration after combat.Tyler talks about joining the Army after seeing the war on TV, signing an infantry contract, losing his Ranger contract, becoming airborne, getting sent to Iraq, and realizing that some days survival came down to nothing more than a left turn or a right turn.But the most powerful part of this story may not be Iraq itself.It's what happened after.The alcohol. The car crashes. The murders. The friends who didn't make it home emotionally, even when they physically made it back. Tyler's story is a reminder that war does not always end when the deployment does.Chapters: 00:00 - Intro: Crazy Army Stories & Close Calls01:26 - Growing Up in Pennsylvania & Virginia02:21 - Playing in Bands & Learning Branding02:45 - Growing Up as a Cop's Son05:04 - Why Tyler Decided to Join the Military07:46 - Trying to Join the Marines08:26 - Joining the Army Infantry08:45 - Signing a Ranger Contract09:47 - Arriving at Army Basic Training10:51 - Finding Out He Was a Mortarman12:37 - Culture Shock in the Army17:09 - Drill Sergeants, Integrity & War Prep21:58 - Army Airborne School24:03 - Getting in Trouble With an Officer25:50 - The Army Friends Who Never Made It26:28 - Getting Sent to Fort Bragg28:34 - Assigned to the Support Battalion29:42 - Finally Getting Sent to the Line30:23 - Deploying to Baghdad, Iraq30:52 - EFPs, IEDs & Convoy Danger31:58 - Life as the Lead Truck Gunner34:37 - The Left Turn That Saved His Life36:26 - Living Like Every Day Was Extra37:19 - The Photo That Got Him in Trouble39:58 - Coming Home From Iraq40:42 - Losing Friends After Deployment42:18 - Why Coming Home Is So Hard43:35 - Drinking, DUI & Leaving the Army51:14 - Becoming a Police Officer51:57 - Working Night Shift in Orlando52:27 - The Baby Not Breathing Call57:05 - The McDonald's SWAT Call59:21 - The Adrenaline Crash After the Call1:00:37 - Why Police Work Wasn't Like the Military1:02:06 - Getting Kicked Off SWAT1:05:03 - The Clothing Line That Caused Problems1:06:20 - Starting the Anti-Hero Podcast1:08:11 - Turning the Podcast Into a Broadcast1:09:07 - Building a Community for the 99%1:10:23 - Why Regular Veterans Get Overlooked1:12:01 - Smoke Pit Humor & Veteran Culture1:18:07 - Lessons From Military & Police Work1:19:02 - What the Anti-Hero Broadcast Is Today1:20:25 - Final Thoughts on Regular Service Members

Military historian and author Jeremy Holm reveals the astonishing, forgotten heroism of the "Angels" of the Pacific. He discusses the horrific conditions of the Japanese-run Los Baños Agricultural College internment camp and how a team of teenage paratroopers coordinated a flawless airborne assault to achieve one of the most successful rescue missions in military history.  Jeremy shares why he chose to retell these stories following a promise to his late grandfather, a decorated 11th Airborne paratrooper, that he would ensure the world never forgot the sacrifices his division made to save those prisoners.

We're celebrating the launch of The BREAK—DOWN's spring issue, Airborne! On May 6th, The BREAK—DOWN hosted a live podcast where editor Adrienne Buller was joined by Geoff Mann, Daniela Gabor and Oliver Eagleton to discuss climate crisis through and beyond the contents of AIRBORNE.ISSUE #3: AirborneThe engines of industrial production that power the modern economy release vast quantities of carbon and pollutants into the air, seeping into our soil, our water, and even our bodies. Air pollution alone is responsible for around ten million deaths each year. And yet this everyday emergency has not fundamentally reshaped how we understand our place in the world.This issue explores the tensions between global causes and local effects, between the invisible and the immediate, by looking closely at the air itself: the medium that surrounds us, connects us, and sustains life, even as it is increasingly contested and compromised.Featuring essays by Adam Almeida and Shruti Iyer on the inequalities of air pollution across time and place, from New York to India; Zsuzsanna Ihar on a spaceport in the outer Hebrides; Vera Huwe on the political history of air travel; Mae Losasso on the origins of “the environment” in airborne chemical warfare; Cecilia Rikap on Big Tech and the cloud; Drew Pendergrass on complexity and planning; Natasha Heenan on the politics of climate repair; a photo essay by Amelie David and Ségolène Ragu on the fight for clean air and energy in Beirut under renewed military assault; and an interview with journalist David Wallace-Wells.Go to The BREAK—DOWN's website to ⁠become a member⁠ and get your copy of their latest issue - and follow their ⁠socials⁠.

Nick Black is the founder and CEO of GoodUnited, a former Army officer, co-founder of Stop Soldier Suicide, a Presidential Leadership Scholar, and a UNC Distinguished Alumnus. Nick focuses on a cost most leaders refuse to calculate: isolation. What happens to your people when no one is checking on them? After deploying 27 months in combat with the 173rd Airborne, Nick watched one of his soldiers survive war and then lose his life weeks after returning home. That experience reshaped how he thinks about leadership, connection, and responsibility. In this conversation, Nick explains why isolation is the common thread behind many of the losses he has seen, both in combat units and inside organizations, and why the peer group surrounding people is not a culture perk but a lifeline. He also shares what it took to carry mission driven urgency from the battlefield into the nonprofit world and then into a scaling company. For leaders who want to protect their people and not just manage them, this episode offers a more honest standard for what leadership actually requires and what it costs when it is missing.

"If you can't laugh at yourself, you're not being honest with yourself — and I don't think many people are going to follow you." "The secret is not to give up hope. It's very hard not to, because if you're really doing something worthwhile, I think you'll be pushed to the brink of hopelessness before you come through the other side." — George Lucas Explore the full archive at www.theleadershippodcast.com or wherever you get your podcasts!

NPR has confirmed the U.S. is sending thousands of paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne to the Middle East, raising questions about whether this is an escalation in the war or a pressure tactic to force Iran to the negotiating table.Lebanon expelled Iran's ambassador as Israel threatens to move the country's border northward and use the "Gaza model" in the south of Lebanon, with more than a million people already displaced. And Congress is inching toward a deal to fund the Department of Homeland Security, but President Trump says he's probably not going to be happy with it, leaving TSA workers still without pay.Want more analysis of the most important news of the day, plus a little fun? Subscribe to the Up First newsletter.Today's episode of Up First was edited by Gerry Holmes, Andrew Sussman, Kelsey Snell, Mohamad ElBardicy, and Alice Woelfle.It was produced by Ziad Buchh and Nia Dumas.Our director is Christopher Thomas.We get engineering support from Neisha Heinis.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Dems Are Political Insurgents Clay Travis and Buck Sexton discuss the ongoing TSA crisis and the extraordinary impact of Linda from Arizona, whose idea to deploy ICE agents to assist overwhelmed TSA checkpoints has now become a nationwide policy. Clay describes how the Washington Post is seeking interviews about Linda’s call, emphasizing how rare it is for a single radio listener to spark a national policy shift. President Trump even personally signed a “Trump Was Right About Everything” hat for Linda aboard Air Force One, underscoring how responsive he has been to voter-generated ideas. Clay details his own recent airport experiences, noting that TSA lines appear to be improving in some locations, partially due to ICE agents stepping in to handle non‑screening duties such as monitoring exits and assisting with crowd control—exactly the scenario Linda envisioned. Both hosts emphasize that Democrats created this crisis by refusing to fund TSA workers as part of their shutdown strategy targeting immigration policy. They argue that Democratic leaders are intentionally generating travel misery to create political backlash against Trump, even though Republican voters overwhelmingly understand the source of the problem. Iran Deep Dive National‑security expert Steve Yates, senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation, explaining why the Strait of Hormuz remains one of the most strategically dangerous chokepoints in the world. Yates details how Iran’s geography, its control over key oil‑processing islands like Karg Island, and the narrow waterway’s global energy importance complicate any U.S. military response. He clarifies that while much of the oil shipped through the strait supplies China and India—not the U.S. directly—any disruption still pushes global prices upward because oil is a fungible commodity. The hosts and Yates examine President Donald Trump’s evolving strategy toward Iran, including deadlines for reopening the Strait of Hormuz, targeted strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure, and the possibility of limited U.S. troop movement—such as the deployment of elements of the 82nd Airborne—to support or execute rapid, high‑value operations. Yates explains the logic of Trump’s “sledgehammer diplomacy,” where overwhelming force is paired with opportunities for Iran to deescalate. The discussion also covers the likely endgame: preventing Iran’s nuclear capabilities, ensuring long‑term regional stability, empowering Gulf‑state partners, and identifying a credible post‑conflict governing figure within Iran. Clay and Buck emphasize that Arab nations—including Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Qatar—are quietly encouraging the pressure campaign on Iran, undermining media narratives that the conflict is solely the result of U.S.–Israel coordination. Yates stresses that regional actors have long viewed Iran as a destabilizing force and are now publicly aligning against Tehran. Walkin' in Memphis, Safely Clay and Buck then welcome Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, who offers a detailed look at Memphis’s historic collapse in violent crime, a result of President Donald Trump’s federal law‑enforcement surge. Blackburn explains how coordinated efforts across local police, federal agencies, the Tennessee Highway Patrol, and newly confirmed federal officials have produced a 50% reduction in violent crime in under six months. The senator calls Memphis a national model—contrasting it sharply with Minneapolis and other Democrat‑run cities that have resisted federal assistance. She highlights thousands of arrests, the dismantling of gang networks, hundreds of recovered weapons and stolen cars, and over 150 missing children rescued. The program shifts to the ongoing airport crisis created by the TSA funding shutdown, where ICE agents—deployed after a listener’s now‑famous idea—have dramatically improved screening efficiency. Clay and Buck play clips from Fox News and CNN showing astonishingly short lines at Atlanta’s airport, a night‑and‑day difference from the hours‑long waits plaguing travelers just days earlier. Senator Blackburn confirms that ICE’s presence is significantly easing congestion and reinforces that Congress continues working on public‑safety funding solutions. Think Like Linda Clay and Buck break down the swearing‑in of new DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin, confirmed 54–45, making him the first Cherokee Nation member to hold a Cabinet position. Clay jokes that he expected Trump to make an Elizabeth Warren comment, while Buck praises Mullin as a major leadership upgrade at DHS. Security and travel issues return to focus as Clay reports that Delta Airlines has suspended special travel privileges for members of Congress until TSA staff are funded—forcing lawmakers to stand in the same lines as the public. Clay and Buck strongly support this move, arguing that members of Congress should share the consequences of the shutdown they helped create.
