Pasha Palanker is a decorated U.S. Army veteran, speaker, and passionate advocate for mental health in the veteran community. Honored with the Bronze Star for Valor, Pasha's extraordinary journey includes surviving a suicide bomber attack during combat and overcoming the invisible wounds that followed. After navigating his own battles with anger, identity loss, and post-traumatic struggles, Pasha found purpose in helping others climb out of darkness. Now, he shares his story nationwide, impacting thousands by speaking authentically about resilience, mental wellness, and living a life of meaning beyond military service.  Takeaways: Healing Begins with Presence and Support: Sometimes the greatest help for someone struggling is not advice, but simply being there with love and understanding. It Takes Strength to Seek Help: Reaching out for support, whether through a psych ward visit or therapy, is a true display of courage—not weakness. Rewriting Purpose After Service: Transitioning from military life often means finding new purpose and challenges—embracing new missions, new hobbies, and a fresh sense of identity is crucial for a successful and fulfilling post-service life.  Sound Bites: “You don't have to be Superman, Superwoman 24/7. It's okay to not be okay and to seek help for that.” “I had to go so deep inside of myself and learn about myself in order to come out, and now I'm genuinely curious about other people and how to connect.” “You can't hold onto the life that's behind you—find something new and meaningful to challenge yourself with after the uniform comes off.

Greg Louganis (lube-anus) sold his medals and home to get outta America. Mario Lopez played him in a made-for-TV movie. Karl Malone was a horrible father to Demetress Bell. He banged 13-year-olds too. Shoutout to Pink Zebra Moving. BranDon has groundhog troubles. TMZ has an OnlyFans special tonight. Scooter Braun is plowing into Sydney Sweeney. Karl from WATP drops by to pontificate on Howard Stern, rip on the return of Stuttering John (and his fantasy team), destroy One Bad Movie with Stephen Baldwin once again and much more.

"Jack Riccardi questions why troops abroad always sounds good to the same people who don't want them securing our cities, Gov. Wes Moore's Bronze Star story, the sad kazoo protest and people aren't drinking up."

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss President Trump's proposal to change the name of the Department of Defense to The War Department, and the political impact of Maryland Governor Wes Moore's recent comments on winning the Bronze Star. Then, they discuss the decisions by Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) and Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) to not to seek reelection. And they talk about President Trump's call for leading pharmaceutical companies to release data on the effectiveness of the Covid-19 vaccine, and a new Gallup poll of parents on how they view the physical safety of their children while at school. Then finally, Andrew Walworth talks to RCP senior elections analyst Sean Trende about the fight within the Democratic Party over the schedule of the 2028 primaries, and how potential Democratic presidential candidates view the political calendar.

Episode 196 - Chris Kruger - Black Hawk Helicopters, Multiple Deployments, Anger and Fear, Lessons for DadsAbout the authorChris Kruger grew up just outside Spokane, Washington, and joined the Army before turning 21, driven by a sense of purpose and a thirst for challenge. Over the next 22 years, he forged a diverse and demanding military career—starting as an infantryman and eventually becoming a Blackhawk maintenance test pilot. His journey took him from Basic Training and Airborne School at Fort Benning to Fort Bragg, North Carolina, where he completed an impressive lineup of elite training programs, including Amphibious Reconnaissance School, Ranger School, HALO and HALO Jumpmaster, and Flight School, among others. Along the way, he earned the Expert and Combat Infantryman Badges, a Bronze Star, a Meritorious Service Medal, and several other honors. Chris deployed to Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Far East, spending more than five and a half years overseas—experiences that deeply shaped his outlook on leadership, resilience, and life. After retiring, he turned to writing as a way to unpack and give meaning to those intense years. What began as personal reflection quickly became a mission to reach others walking similar paths. Today, Chris lives in Huntsville, Alabama, with his wife Genevieve and their two daughters, Charlize and Isabelle—writing from a place of survival, strength, and connection. Together, Chris and Genevieve are active in their local church and committed to encouraging others to overcome life's hardships, expanding their reach through writing and a forthcoming podcast aimed at inspiring healing, faith, and perseverance.Book: Walking Away from the Ledge: A Soldier's MemoirWalking Away from the Ledge is a hard-hitting, no-BS military memoir that goes beyond the battlefield to expose the raw truth of war, survival, and self-destruction. With an unapologetic voice and brutal honesty, Chris takes readers deep inside the challenging world of an Army Ranger, the brotherhood that holds soldiers together, and the personal demons that threaten to tear them apart.More than a war story, this book is about what happens when the fight doesn't end—the toll of combat, the grip of addiction, and the struggle to hold onto love when everything else is falling apart. This memoir hits hard, digs deep, and refuses to look away.https://a.co/d/4nhPNiR___https://dadspace.camusic provided by Blue Dot SessionsSong: The Big Ten https://app.sessions.blue/browse/track/258270

In Part 3: Kyle Steiner explains how "Comfort and Progress, don't live in the same home." Combat, war and pushing your body to the extreme may seem uncomfortable to most, but were areas where Kyle felt at home. With retirement from the Army fast approaching, Kyle opens about what he finds uncomfortable in civilian life and how he needs to push past that initial hesitation in order to be the man that his children will be proud to call their father. There are no excuses for mediocrity and in this final installment of The Present Father's Interview with Kyle Steiner, he explains that he plans on taking on civilian life, fatherhood and any other future challenges with the same gusto that he approached his time in the military. About Kyle Steiner: Kyle is a husband and father, a U.S. Army Green Beret, Chief Warrant Officer, and the founder of Operator Mindset—a leadership and coaching platform helping highly successful men reclaim discipline, presence, and purpose in their lives.

Since then, he has completed multiple missions to the Middle East, Central America, and South America with U.S. Special Operations teams.

War remains the most chaotic and destructive act our species is capable of. In addition to waging war against those we disagree with, we also battle with which beliefs about war are superior to alternatives. We make war with ideas, beliefs, and mindsets along with bullets, bombs, and missiles. The tactics and technologies matter, but only if societies can also realize the limitations of their strategic, organizational, and societal frameworks on defining and engaging in organized violence.Ben Zweibelson presents an entirely disruptive and groundbreaking way to make sense of conflict at a meta-theoretical level. Blending philosophy and sociology, he provides a challenging synthesis of multiple war paradigms, from technological, Westphalian frames of Western industrialized societies to those under Marxist versions, and radical ideological movements and sects. Readers interested in philosophy, political science, security affairs, and foreign policy will find this book highly informative and provocative. In this book, those waging internationally sanctioned warfare clash with proponents of ‘wokefare', radical terrorists and doomsday cults battle with totalitarian regimes, and more.Reconceptualizing War (Helion & Company, 2025) attempts what no previous book on war has done, in that each war theory remains grounded in one dominant war paradigm. Zweibelson takes readers on a mind-bending intellectual journey where all war paradigms are explained, contrasted, and overlapped so that greater understanding of our species' perpetual fascination with conflict is achieved.Dr. Ben Zweibelson has over three decades of service to the U.S. Department of Defense, retiring as an Infantry Officer with 22 years combined service, multiple combat deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, and awarded four Bronze Stars.

In This Episode You Will Hear: • I don't think I could beat Marcus at arm wrestling if I can't pick up a bowling ball. (1:58) • You do realize there's a thing called old man strength? (5:53) • [Rob O'Neil] I have a podcast as well, called “The Operator.” We're called The Operator because if you're doing anything, you're an operator. (6:18) • Having a big man to kick your ass and teach you wind a bobbin; you realize there is skill here. (9:59) • When people quit BUDS, it's not because “this is hard”. [It's because] I'm tired of the broken foot.; I'm tired of the shin splints; I'm tired of my dislocated shoulder; I'm tired. (21:20) • In BUDS, one of the biggest problems is eating too much. Like I want 5 cheeseburgers, but we have a 4-mile run afterwards. (26:35) • [Rob] and for everyone that doesn't know, can you explain what a SDV is? (39:20) [Marcus] Imagine a mini submarine and shrink it down. The difference is that a submarine is dry inside, and the SDV is completely full of water. (39:23) • Listen to Marcus discuss the details of being in an SDV for 8 hours. Talk about ultimate torture - If you have a deep freeze in your garage, fill that sucker full of water, crawl in there and sit down for 8 hours. (40:32) • The first time I got in there, I was terrified. (45:29) • [Marcus] There's stuff that happens to us out there. Sometimes safety gets in the way of it. (58:49) • [After falling down the mountain during Operation Red Wings] I could hear that stream running. I've got to get me water, but I kept thinking I can't drink out of it, because my buddies are in it. (81:07) • If you want to make God laugh, tell Him what your plan is. (92:04) • [Marcus] Bro, when you saw that son of a bitch's face [Osama Bin Laden], what was the first thing you saw? [Rob O'Neal] I saw his nose. He was skinny, wearing white – tall. (95:22 ) • My nickname was “Nisro” (Navy SEAL Rob O'Neal). When they asked “Who got him?” They go “Nisro,” and they said “Fuck! We're never gonna hear the end of it.” (97:30) Support Robert:   - IG: mchooyah - Host of The Operator Podcast Support TNQ   - IG: team_neverquit , marcusluttrell , melanieluttrell , huntero13   -  https://www.patreon.com/teamneverquit Sponsors:   - dripdrop.com/TNQ    -  cargurus.com/TNQ    - armslist.com/TNQ   - partnersinbuilding.com - Navyfederal.org        -    - You can find Cremo's new line of antiperspirants and deodorants at Target or Target.com    - WARFARE IN THEATERS APRIL 11th Watch Trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JER0Fkyy3tw First Look Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3DWuqiAUKg&t=3s    -   - PXGapparel.com/TNQ   - bruntworkwear.com/TNQ    - Selectquote.com/TNQ    - Groundnews.com/TNQ    - You can find Cremo's new line of antiperspirants and deodorants at Target or Target.com    - shipsticks.com/TNQ    - Robinhood.com/gold    - strawberry.me/TNQ    - stopboxusa.com {TNQ}    - ghostbed.com/TNQ [TNQ]   -  kalshi.com/TNQ   -  joinbilt.com/TNQ    - Tonal.com [TNQ]   - greenlight.com/TNQ   - PDSDebt.com/TNQ   - drinkAG1.com/TNQ   - Shadyrays.com [TNQ]   - qualialife.com/TNQ [TNQ]   - Hims.com/TNQ   - Shopify.com/TNQ   - Aura.com/TNQ   - Policygenius.com   - TAKELEAN.com [TNQ]   - usejoymode.com [TNQ]

This week, Nathan and B.R discuss the latest 'Sig-cident' involving an Sig P320 / M18 handgun, with this particular uncommanded discharge resulting in the death of a U.S. Airman station in Wyoming. The lads talk bluntly about the on-going lack of accountability from Sig in regards to these incidents and scapegoating via blaming the holster or user. Also discussed: The 'Tim-cident', AKA, Tim Kennedy publicly apologizing for lying about receiving the Bronze Star for Valor and the years of inflating his service record publicly and to his own profit and the implications of this and how American hero worship continues to create those who tell exaggerated and embellished tales of war for their own gain.On a more casual note, B.R celebrates carving out two acres for himself and achieving a small slice of the 'American dream' in Appalachia, and Nathan attempts to explain Death Stranding and Kojima to B.R. All that, and much more!All information discussed is open source and available to anyone with an internet connection, documents can be found below for reference and independent assessment.Any legal action pursued due to this episode will be met with more memes. :)SIG INTEL REPORT:⁠https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ozkb5vouKqtVeHxGBtRJ5z9BVlHMF6k4Uf3gsnLe9Zc/edit?invite=CPu87poP&tab=t.hdaevbdop0sf⁠SIG P320 US I.C.E.

The Jackwagon Train is steaming through JULY, and Talking Lead Podcast is unloading a full-auto barrage on the year's biggest duds! Lefty's got the Lead Head Brigade locked and loaded, joined by 2A titans Ton Jones (Firebird Targets, world-record airgun marksman), Ryan “Koup” Kuperus (USMC Force Recon, The Reason Outdoors), and Tommy (TNOUTDOORS9, YouTube ballistics guru). These pros shred posers and flops with the precision of a well-aimed shot, exposing betrayals that hit harder than a .308. From 2A hypocrites to Hollywood's woke misfires, here's the Jackwagon Train's hit list for July 2025. Catch the episode on Rumble, submit your own Jackwagons, and join us at the 2025 GOALS convention in Knoxville, TN, August 8-10! Jackwagon Lineup: The Worst of 2025 Shawn Ryan: The 2A Fumble Shawn Ryan, host of The Shawn Ryan Show, thought he'd score points gifting Gavin Newsom a Sig Sauer P365 XMACRO on July 14, 2025, but fumbled by letting Newsom's “I'm not anti-gun” claim slide. X users like @MrColionNoir roasted him for the softballs, and his bizarre “furbies” remark about trans kids sparked backlash (@BooRadleytoo called it a “PR disaster”). Lefty quips, ““Shawn's 2A cred imploded quicker than the Titan submersible". Gavin Newsom: The Slick Hypocrite California's "God Da*n" Governor Newsom grinned for the cameras, accepting Ryan's Sig Sauer while dodging his anti-2A record. His July 14, 2025, interview dodged lockdown questions and fumbled a Rogan jab with “Motherf**ker”. Koup says, “Newsom's ‘pro-gun' act is slicker than his hair gel!” A perfect Jackwagon for the Brigade's scorn. Tim Kennedy: Tall Tales & Fake Valor Tim Kennedy's Bronze Star with Valor claim crumbled on July 8, 2025, after veterans called out his Scars and Stripes exaggerations (like 50 hand grenades!). Black Rifle cut ties, and his website vanished. Lefty notes, “Tim fought more in his book than Iraq!” A betrayal the 2A crowd won't forgive. SilencerCo & Capitol Armory: NFA Cash Grabs SilencerCo's “Tax-Free Tease” (July 8, 2025) hyped the OBBB's $0 tax stamp but hiked prices 20% (a scam). Capitol Armory's $150 “Fast Pass” (July 10, 2025) promised ATF shortcuts but got lost in their deception. Ton snaps, “These cons hit 2A wallets harder than ATF knocking on your door!” A duo fleecing the faithful. Hollywood's Woke Flops: Marvel & Disney Misfires Marvel's Captain America: Brave New World (Feb 14, 2025) bored fans with a B- CinemaScore and 80% Popcornmeter, slammed for “empty” plots and “corny” vibes. Disney's Lilo & Stitch (May 23, 2025) and Skeleton Crew (June 17, 2025) flopped with DEI backlash and kiddie pandering. Lefty growls, “Hollywood's woke duds make a jammed mag look epic!” Why These Guests Rule the Roast Ton Jones, airgun sharpshooter, blasts overhyped gear like his Firebird Targets make a blast on the range. Koup Kuperus, Force Recon vet, snipes posers with tactical precision. Tommy, TNOUTDOORS9's ballistics king, dissects Hollywood's failures like a 9mm through ballistics gel. Their 2A cred makes this roast a Lead Head Brigade classic, exposing betrayals that sting worse than a misfire. Join the Fight! Catch TLP 578 on Rumble and join the Jackwagon Train! Submit your 2025 Jackwagons in the comments or on IG & X. Don't miss Lefty, Ton, and Koup at the 2025 GOALS convention (Knoxville, TN, August 8-10). Enter our Firebird Targets and Talking Lead rifle giveaway—only 100 challenge coins available! Fight for liberty and lead with the Brigade. Keep your loved ones close, and keep your firearms closer!

Bush's historically close win and then served President Bush as a Senior Official at the Department of Energy.Michael got to see first-hand how important winning elections is for helping the citizens of North Carolina serving as Chief of Staff for Senator Elizabeth Dole.In 2015, Michael answered the call to help Donald J. Trump in North Carolina and helped deliver the Old North State for President Trump in both the 2016 and 2020 election cycles.Michael has earned a Bachelor's Degree in History from the University of North Carolina–Charlotte, a Master's Degree in Religion from Wake Forest University, a Master's Degree in Theology from the University of Notre Dame and a Law Degree from the Notre Dame Law School.

David Waldman is here to Tuesday the heck out of this KITM. The Supreme Court was feeling cute last night and thought they'd delete the separation of powers. That Nixon was such a loser. Congratulations also go to Trump for winning his 5th golf championship in since inauguration, 10 weeks ago. Just one of the many of his latest great successes, depending on how one looks at things. One thing is still missing on his signature blue suit, however. Medals. Like Florida Gop Cory Mills' Bronze Star, but maybe a dozen or so gold ones. That'd be cool. Meanwhile, Cory's landlord is accusing him of not paying $85,000 in rent. Can Mills help it if he didn't bill him correctly? Donald does become a little smaller each day, therefore he shut down airports in a 200-mile radius in order to pretend to be a World Cup player and “accept” their trophy… and a medal… and probably the silverware at the banquet and the toilet paper from his restroom stall. Hey, it's what all the tin-pot dictators do when they tire of tin pots. Blame Jeffery Epstein. He's the guy who got Trump on his gold kick, among other things. Democrats and Kevin Spacey would like to know more, but you know how prim and demure Republicans can be. Barack Obama started compiling his forged Epstein list during his early teens, as will be revealed to all in around two weeks The US has imposed a 17% duty on fresh Mexican tomatoes (purportedly) in hopes of “boosting domestic production” … First of all, Donald K. Trump doesn't do anything for the good of anything. Second, we are deporting/terrorizing/imprisoning all of our skilled farm workers. Third, everyone knows that you couldn't treat white folks like that.  Fourth, you also don't mess with tomatoes, as they are some litigious SOBs.

From childhood adventures to post-trauma recovery, explore how our parks support our well-being— and why access to them matters.Summary: Nature has long been a source of wonder, healing, and connection. But access to those green spaces—from neighborhood parks to national treasures—are increasingly at risk. In this episode of The Science of Happiness, we hear how awe-inspiring outdoor experiences can help us feel more alive and less alone, and what we can do to protect those spaces.How To Do This Practice:  Step outside with intention, even if it's just to your backyard, a nearby park, or a patch of grass. Pause and take a few deep breaths to ground yourself and shift your attention from doing to simply being. Notice the details around you. The movement of leaves, the pattern of clouds, the sound of birds or distant traffic. Look for something that surprises or moves you, no matter how small, like a weed blooming through concrete or shifting light on a tree. Let yourself feel whatever arises, whether it's wonder, calm, grief, or joy—there's no right way to experience awe. Before you return indoors, take a moment to reflect on what you saw or felt, and how it might shift your day or perspective.

Ryan Zinke is a fifth generation Montanan who serves as Representative for Montana's First Congressional District covering 16 counties in western Montana including the cities of Bozeman, Butte, Missoula, Kalispell. First elected to Congress in 2014, and serving as U.S. Secretary of the Interior between noncontiguous terms, Zinke has built a track record of accomplishments in energy, conservation, tribal and military issues. Now in his third term, Zinke is a member of the House Committee on Appropriations, focusing his legislative agenda on restoring accountability to federal spending, restoring American energy dominance, and bolstering national security at our borders and beyond. Ryan began public service in 1985 when he joined the U.S. Navy and graduated from Officer Candidate School. He was recruited to join the U.S. Navy SEALs where he went on dozens of deployments targeting terrorist cells in Asia, war criminals in Bosnia, and combatting the rise of radical Islamic terrorists in the middle east. During his military career he held a number of leadership positions including as Ground Forces and Task Force commander at SEAL Teams SIX oversaw the U.S. Navy SEAL BUD/S training after 9/11, and was Deputy/Acting Commander of Joint Special Forces during the Iraq war. In 2006 he was awarded the Bronze Star for his service. Commander Zinke retired from active duty in 2008 after serving for 23 years. Following his military service, Ryan was elected to the Montana State Senate and was twice elected as Montana's sole member of the U.S. House of Representatives. During his first two terms as Congressman, Zinke served on the House Armed Services Committee and Natural Resources Committee. As a leading member of the Natural Resources Committee, Ryan challenged the Obama Administration on their policies that locked Montanans out of public lands and introduced legislation to strengthen public access and conservation. In December 2016, Congressman Zinke was nominated to be the United States Secretary of the Interior by President Donald J. Trump and later confirmed by a bipartisan vote in the Senate.
