Re-running Summer of Trinity, this time with episodes released at the start of their respective weeks rather than the end.  Just for a different perspective. July 15 to July 21, 1945 This is Summer of Trinity - a daily description of events in the summer of 1945, touching points around the world but centered (as that summer was) on the Trinity nuclear test.  This episode has daily events for the week ending Saturday July 21th, 1945.   Sunday, July 15,1945 - 1 Day Before Trinity 12th Army Situation Map (Germany and surrounding areas) https://www.osti.gov/opennet/manhattan-project-history/Events/1945/trinity_evaluations.htm The American contingent arrives at Potsdam. The imminent start of the conference was a major reason the Trinity test had been planned of this week. Returning from his one-day shakedown cruise for the USS Indianapolis, Captain McVay meets with Captain William Parsons of Project Alberta and Admiral William R. Purnell - one of the chief military advisors for the Manhattan Project. They don't mention these connections to McVay, who is informed only that his ship has been chosen for an important mission: He is to proceed with all possible speed across the Pacific, first to Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, and then to the Marianas, on the edge of the Philippine sea. There he will deliver his cargo to the air base on the island of Tinian.  He is assured that every day saved delivering the cargo is a day closer to the end of the war. He is to safeguard the cargo at all costs - ALL costs. If the ship is lost, his first priority will be saving this cargo - if necessary, a lifeboat is to be used to ensure it is undamaged. McVay will not, however, be told what the cargo actually is.     There are some clues, however. There are two Army officers who will accompany the cargo and see it safely ashore at Tinian: Major Robert Furman, and Capt. James Nolan. While they are presented as "artillerymen," McVay eventually learns from Captain Nolan that he is actually a doctor, with the implication that there are some health concerns about the cargo. Nolan assures McVay that there is no actual danger to the crew of the Indianapolis. Nolan does not mention that he is one of two medical doctors at Los Alamos - not that McVay would have know where that was - nor that he is the doctor who put together the safety plan to ensure the health of those attending the upcoming Trinity test. But McVay knows that there are not a lot of materials that are both relatively small and enough of a health concern to merit the attendance of a doctor. https://ahf.nuclearmuseum.org/ahf/profile/james-f-nolan/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_B._McVay_III https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Indianapolis_(CA-35)   Monday, July 16,1945 - Trinity Yoko Moriwaki's diary is available through online and other booksellers, and in some libraries. https://www.amazon.com/Yokos-Diary-Paul-Ham/dp/0733331173/r https://www.dearfolksies.com/wabern-germany-july-10-august-23-1945/6/ https://www.trumanlibrary.gov/node/400674   Tuesday, July 17,1945 - 1 Day After Trinity The Potsdam Conference began in Potsdam, occupied Germany.

The crew goes live with a fancy new camera setup and immediately loses the plot over Coral's high-fidelity vampire rankings and a thorough breakdown of the pop culture wedding of the century. Between mourning a prolific pet opossum hunter, dragging the live-action Avatar continuation, and marveling at a highly specific superhero video game skin, this episode turns into a hilarious celebration of pride, pageantry, and questionable cinematic tastes. This Week's Insanity:Bane's Reckoning: The crew welcomes back the ashes of Bane, a legendary pet honored with a custom urn inscribed "Born in the Darkness" to commemorate her relentless opossum-hunting career. The Giga-Wedding: A deep dive into Taylor Swift's high-security Madison Square Garden wedding, featuring checked phones, an indoor forest, and Lena Dunham making an uncomfortable toast about football players. The "Catching Kelce" Throwback: Joe and Jeff reminisce about working on the short-lived E! reality dating show Catching Kelce, recalling a young Travis Kelce being asked a classic game of "Mary, Kiss, Kill". Avatar Outrage: Coral goes completely off on season two of Netflix's live-action Avatar, slamming the writers for a lack of character development and for creating unapproved side quests for Zuko and Katara. America's Bulge: The gang loses their minds over a patriotic new Marvel Rivals skin that features Captain America in a wrestling singlet, complete with explicit, un-nerfed jiggle physics on a paddle boat. The C*nty Vampire Rankings: Coral sets the record straight on the ultimate hierarchy of theatrical bloodsuckers, crowning Sam Reed's Lestat as the absolute peak while dismissing Edward Cullen as a total "bitch baby". Loose, chaotic, and deeply cinematic — this episode is what happens when you let the conversation alternate between classic literature and video game anatomy. New episodes every week.Only at Revenge Of — where the cameras are fancy, and the vampires are sophisticated.

What is the true cost of freedom? In this deeply moving and unforgettable episode of MisFitNation, host Rich LaMonica sits down with Army Veteran Ethan Groce and Gold Star Son Jason Galvan, co-hosts of the Operation Insight Podcast, for a powerful conversation about military service, sacrifice, resilience, purpose, and preserving the stories of America's heroes. Ethan shares his firsthand experiences serving during the Afghanistan withdrawal and being within hearing distance of the devastating Abbey Gate bombing that claimed the lives of thirteen American service members. He reflects on the emotional impact of witnessing history unfold, the responsibility of carrying forward the memory of those who never returned home, and how service continues long after the uniform comes off. Jason opens up about becoming a Gold Star Son at just eleven years old after losing his father, Air Force Captain Arthur Galvan, during Operation Desert Storm. Rather than allowing tragedy to define his future, Jason transformed grief into purpose by dedicating his life to honoring veterans, supporting military families, and ensuring the sacrifices of America's service members are never forgotten. Together, Ethan and Jason discuss: • The realities of military service beyond the battlefield • The emotional and generational impact of war on families • Abbey Gate and the Afghanistan withdrawal • Desert Storm and Gold Star family experiences • PTSD, healing, and finding purpose after trauma • Why preserving veteran stories matters now more than ever • Leadership lessons learned through service and sacrifice • The importance of community, connection, and remembrance • The mission behind Operation Insight Podcast • How ordinary people accomplish extraordinary things every day The conversation also highlights powerful stories from World War II veterans, Battle of the Bulge survivors, Vietnam veterans, Cold War servicemembers, and military families whose experiences continue to shape American history. Through Operation Insight, Ethan and Jason are creating a living archive of courage, perseverance, and service that future generations will be able to learn from for decades to come. This episode is not just about war. It is about humanity. It is about carrying the torch for those who can no longer tell their own stories. It is about understanding that heroes walk among us every day. If you believe stories matter, if you value service, or if you've ever wondered what freedom truly costs, this conversation is one you won't forget.

Travis Hopson talks with Scott Eastwood and director Rod Lurie about LUCKY STRIKE, the WWII film that is their second collaboration after THE OUTPOST.  Inspired by true events, Lucky Strike tells the story of one soldier trapped behind enemy lines during the last major German offensive during WWII, what will become known as The Battle of the Bulge. Armed only with his Motorola SCR-300 radio, a new technology only battle-ready near the end of the war, he must use his wits and spy craft to thwart the advancing Nazi Panzer army and find his way back home. LUCKY STRIKE is in theaters now.All of this and more can be found at www.punchdrunkcritics.com!Subscribe to Punch Drunk Critics on YouTube:    / @punchdrunkcritics1  Follow Punch Drunk Critics on Twitter:   / pdcmovies  Follow Punch Drunk Critics on Facebook:   / pdcmovies  You can also subscribe to our podcast Cinema Royale anywhere you get your podcasts!#ScottEastwood #warmovies #RodLurie

Given how many films have been made about WWII, it's impressive when one tells a new story, like Rod Lurie's action drama LUCKY STRIKE (1:47), which follows a wounded American soldier (Scott Eastwood) stranded behind enemy lines during the Battle of the Bulge. Scott Eastwood looks more like his dad, Clint, than he ever has, but unfortunately, looks don't mean he inherited his father's charisma. His blandness definitely hurts the movie. Also, its plot follows predictable beats, and not much is really surprising. However, its period accuracy, harrowing encounters with Nazis, and decent war set pieces make it surprisingly watchable. Evan and Dave are split on whether you should see it as well, so they come up with a new rating system for the show. In the Patreon exclusive audio this week, Evan and Dave talk about TEAM AMERICA: WORLD POLICE, the winner of our poll of movies with "America" or "American" in the title. It's a really fun conversation, so check it out, Patrons!

While newcomer Millie Alcock soars as the new punk "Supergirl," her movie never quite flies. Giving her a personality that contrasts with her strait-laced cousin Superman was a smart choice, but the filmmakers aren't quite able to pull all the elements together. Still, the eye candy is first-rate, and the action sequences are well-staged. Maybe the best thing you can say is that "Supergirl" is a serviceable intro to a welcome new character in the DC Universe. Scott Eastwood plays a soldier caught behind enemy lines during the Battle of the Bulge in director Rod Lurie's solid WWII flick, "Lucky Strike." While it covers familiar territory, “Lucky Strike” is a mostly effective tale of survival, heroism and the hellish nature of war. Whenever she's on screen, Angelina Jolie's strong performance propels the drama "Couture." Problem is, she's not on screen enough. Jolie plays a filmmaker working in Paris for Fashion Week when she discovers she's got breast cancer. The other stories involving peripheral characters fall flat. For a movie about fashion, "Couture" is surprisingly lacking in style. A strong cast and an interesting premise are swamped in director Julian Schnabel's colossally pretentious Netflix drama, "In the Hand of Dante." Oscar Isaac plays a writer recruited by mobsters to authenticate and then steal a manuscript of Dante's "Divine Comedy.” In an intersecting parallel story, Isaac also plays Dante himself as he struggles to write his masterpiece. While intriguing, the movie is profane, ugly, violent and saddled with laughable dialogue. Gerard Butler's performance as a murderous thug is a creepy standout in “In the Hand of Dante,” a head-scratching misfire.

In this episode, we turn our attention to the final months of the war in Europe and one of the Allied armies' most famous and controversial commanders, General George S. Patton. At the start of 1945, Patton's Third Army was fighting on Germany's western frontier in the aftermath of the Battle of the Bulge. Having played a crucial role in relieving the besieged town of Bastogne, Patton now faced the challenge of maintaining the Allied advance through difficult winter conditions as the Western Allies prepared for the final offensive into the heart of the Third Reich. Joining me is Kevin Hymel to discuss Patton during these decisive months of the war. Kevin is the author of Patton's War: An American General's Combat Leadership, the concluding volume of his acclaimed three part biography of Patton. Drawing on Patton's wartime diaries, personal correspondence, and extensive archival research, the book offers fresh insights into the general's leadership, character, and conduct of operations during the closing stages of the conflict. Kevin is also the co host of the excellent podcast World War 2 Live alongside historian John McManus, which is well worth a listen for anyone interested in the Second World War. Together, we explore Patton's role in the Allied advance into Germany, his relationship with senior commanders, the challenges faced by Third Army, and how his actions in 1945 shaped both his wartime reputation and enduring legacy.

In this episode of the Brief Talk Podcast, UNB Tim sits down with fellow underwear enthusiast and Instagram creator Tim from Fun2WearThongs for a candid conversation about confidence, men's underwear, social media, and why more guys should feel comfortable wearing what they love. With two Tims on the mic, the discussion quickly moves beyond just underwear and into larger conversations about self-expression, masculinity, relationships, body confidence, and the challenges men face when breaking outside traditional expectations. In This Episode How Tim started his Fun2WearThongs Instagram account Why he began reviewing and showcasing thongs online The confidence boost that comes from wearing underwear you love Comfort, function, and style: what makes a great thong Favorite brands including Krakatoa, MeUndies, Cocksox, Hunk, and Real Men Apparel Why jockstraps still intimidate him Working out in thongs and body confidence Lace underwear, masculinity, and breaking stereotypes The double standards men face on social media Why Instagram continues to target male underwear content UNB Tim introduces the “Free the Bulge” initiative How straight, bi, and gay men experience underwear culture differently Discussing men's underwear with partners and spouses Why communication is important in relationships Social media, thirst traps, and authenticity Building confidence through self-expression The importance of creating a welcoming underwear community Key Takeaways Both Tims agree that underwear is far more than just clothing. For many men, it represents confidence, self-expression, comfort, and a way to feel like the best version of themselves. The conversation also highlights the continuing stigma many men face when wearing thongs, lace, jocks, or other non-traditional styles, particularly among straight and bi men who often face additional scrutiny from partners, friends, and society. Whether you're a longtime thong wearer or simply curious about trying something new, this episode encourages listeners to wear what makes them feel good and stop worrying so much about what others think.

A landmark episode packed with discoveries at the cutting edge of space and astronomy. Webb and Hubble redefine a category of stellar object, JWST delivers unprecedented chemistry data from an extreme exoplanet, a 21-year-old NASA observatory faces a daring robotic rescue, a multi-telescope image reveals an ancient galactic supernova, China's Tianwen-2 zeroes in on a possible fragment of our own Moon, and astronomers detect the chemical fingerprint of a planet swallowed by its star.   Story 1: Webb & Hubble Rewrite History: Terzan 5 Is a 'Bulge Fossil Fragment' Using the James Webb Space Telescope and archival data from Hubble spanning 12 years, researchers have definitively reclassified Terzan 5 — a stellar system 22,000 light-years away in Sagittarius — from a globular cluster to an entirely new class of object: a 'bulge fossil fragment.' Four distinct generations of stars have been identified within Terzan 5, formed 12.5 billion, 4.7 billion, 3.8 billion, and 2.5 billion years ago. Unlike a typical globular cluster with a single ancient stellar population, Terzan 5 repeatedly formed new stars by retaining the gas and heavy elements expelled by its own supernovae. Astronomers believe Terzan 5 is a surviving relic of the primordial clumps that merged to form the Milky Way's central bulge billions of years ago — a living fossil of galaxy formation. Results were presented at the 248th American Astronomical Society meeting and published in Astronomy & Astrophysics. Source: NASA / ESA / STScI press release, 16–17 June 2026   Story 2: JWST Catches the 'Roasted Exoplanet' HD 80606 b in the Act Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope's MIRI instrument have observed the extreme exoplanet HD 80606 b experiencing a temperature increase of 1,100°F (600°C) during its close approach to its host star. HD 80606 b is a gas giant four times the mass of Jupiter on a highly elliptical 111-day orbit. The JWST study — led by Tiffany Kataria of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory — also detected specific atmospheric chemical signatures including methane and carbon dioxide, enabling detailed study of how the planet's chemistry shifts under extreme heating. This is the most detailed look yet at an atmospheric response to a rapid, intense heating event. Results were presented at the 248th AAS meeting in Pasadena, California. Source: NASA / JPL press release, 16–17 June 2026   Story 3: Swift's Rescue Mission Cleared for Launch: LINK on the Pad NASA's Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory, which has studied gamma-ray bursts and other high-energy cosmic events since 2004, is facing re-entry as its orbit decays under increased solar activity. NASA contracted Katalyst Space Technologies in September 2025 to build and launch a robotic servicing spacecraft — called LINK — to boost Swift to a higher orbit. LINK is now encapsulated inside a Northrop Grumman Pegasus XL rocket, which has been attached to the Stargazer L-1011 carrier aircraft and is en route to Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands for launch later in June 2026. This will be the final flight of the Pegasus XL — the world's first privately developed orbital launch vehicle, which first flew in 1990. Its air-launch capability is uniquely suited to reaching Swift's unusual low-inclination orbit. Source: NASA press release and media teleconference, 17 June 2026   Story 4: Possible Supernova Remnant at the Galactic Centre A striking multi-telescope composite image released as NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day on 18 June 2026 reveals a possible supernova remnant near the galactic centre — a blue X-ray-emitting structure whose light is estimated to have reached Earth approximately 1,700 years ago, in the third century CE. The image combines X-ray data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and ESA's XMM-Newton (the blue structure), radio data from the MeerKAT telescope in South Africa (the large red cloud), and optical background star data from the PanSTARRS telescopes in Hawaii.

Zhu et al.; ESA/XMM-Newton; MeerKAT; PanSTARRS   Story 5: China's Tianwen-2 Closes In on Earth's 'Quasi-Moon' China's Tianwen-2 spacecraft — launched in May 2025 — performed its primary orbit insertion burn at asteroid 469219 Kamoʻoalewa on June 7, 2026, and has since been performing fine adjustment burns tracked by amateur radio astronomers in Germany and the Netherlands. China's space agency has released no official updates. Kamoʻoalewa is a 40–100 metre quasi-satellite of Earth, orbiting the Sun in a path that keeps it perpetually near our planet. Its reflectance spectrum resembles weathered lunar rock, fuelling a theory that it is a fragment blasted from the Moon by an ancient impact — though a competing theory holds that it is an ordinary inner asteroid belt migrant. Sample collection is scheduled to begin July 4, 2026. Tianwen-2 will depart Kamoʻoalewa in April 2027, with the sample return capsule landing in Inner Mongolia in late November 2027. A new paper in Nature Communications (June 2026) challenges the lunar-origin theory, suggesting Kamoʻoalewa may instead originate from the Flora asteroid family. Source: SpaceNews, Scientific American, Nature Communications, June 2026   Story 6: A Star That Ate a Planet: TOI-5882's Chemical Fingerprint Astronomers led by Brooke Kotten of the University of Michigan have identified a chemical imbalance between the two stars of binary system TOI-5882, located approximately 1,300 light-years away. One star is enriched in elements characteristic of rocky planetary material — including iron, silicon, and magnesium — while its companion is not. Because binary stars form from the same gas cloud and should have identical initial compositions, this difference is interpreted as evidence that one star subsequently ingested at least one planet. The amount of enrichment suggests the equivalent of several Earth masses of rocky material was consumed.

BREAKING PODCAST NEWS – I first discovered the work of director Rod Lurie when I caught his terrific military prison film “The Last Castle, “ which starred Robert Redford and James Gandolfini. I gave it a review on Facebook and he reached out and thanked me, which was very cool.  More recently, he directed the gripping Afghan war film “The Outpost,” which starred Scott Eastwood.  This coming June 26th, Rod teams again with Eastwood in another taut war story – “Lucky Strike” – which follows one determined engineering officer trapped in the midst of the German winter offensive against the allies – inotherwords – the Battle of the Bulge.  I was able to interview Rod all about this film, and he's the subject of this week's podcast.

Patrick K. O'Donnell recounts how in late summer 1944, the Rangers were assigned to assist in capturing the port of Brest, a fortress Hitler ordered to be held at all costs. During a scouting mission, Lieutenant Edlund and three scouts discovered a narrow path through a massive minefield filled with "Bouncing Bettys." Edlund bluffed his way into the command bunker of a major German gun battery, which housed battleship-sized 12-inch guns. Once inside, he threatened the commanding officer with a hand grenade, vowing to blow them both up unless the entire fort surrendered. His audacity worked, and over 200 Germans surrendered the battery without a fight, earning Edlund the Distinguished Service Cross. Following the fall of Brest, the Rangers were moved to the Hürtgen Forest, a location described as a "factory of death." The forest was a nightmare of dense mines, bunkers, and pre-registered artillery fire. American command made the strategic error of attempting to push through the forest rather than bypassing it, resulting in casualties comparable to the entire Korean War. By December, the Rangers were held in reserve near the town of Bergstein. Their objective was Hill 400, the highest point in the forest, which provided a commanding view of the entire region. Unbeknownst to the Allies, the Germans defended the hill with fanaticism because it overlooked the secret assembly areas for Hitler's planned Ardennes Offensive, the Battle of the Bulge. (5)1944

Who was Omar Bradley? The answer is more elusive than generally understood. Often remembered as the calm, steady “GI's General” of World War II, General Omar Bradley commanded more American soldiers in combat than any other officer in U.S. history. Yet compared to Eisenhower, Patton, and MacArthur, Bradley remains a surprisingly enigmatic figure. Was he the humble soldiers' general of popular memory? A cautious strategist? A political insider? Or something more complicated? Join Greatest Generation LIVE for a fascinating conversation with military historian Dr. David W. Hogan, Jr., former Director of Histories at the U.S. Army Center of Military History and one of the nation's leading experts on Bradley. Hogan has spent decades researching the U.S. Army in World War II and is currently completing a major biography of Bradley, Omar Nelson Bradley: The GI's General. Drawing on years of archival research, Hogan will explore Bradley's rise from small-town Missouri to the highest ranks of the American military, his relationships with Eisenhower and Patton, his command during Normandy and the Battle of the Bulge, and his postwar role as the nation's first Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the early Cold War. This program will examine not only Bradley the general, but Bradley the man — modest, disciplined, intensely loyal, and still debated by historians today. #OmarBradley #WWII #GreatestGeneration #MilitaryHistory #WorldWarII #Dday #BattleOfTheBulge #USArmy #Veterans #History #Patton #Eisenhower #KoreanWar #VBC #VeteransBreakfastClub

William Boyd Graves, a Wyoming soldier killed in Vietnam whose voice has unexpectedly returned nearly 50 years later. After decades of silence, Graves' family recently discovered a series of audio tapes he recorded during the Vietnam War—an extraordinary time capsule of humor, fear, longing, and daily life from a young American officer serving far from home. The discovery became the subject of a widely read article, “Voice From Vietnam: Nearly 50 Years After Wyoming Man Died, Family Discovers Tapes.” Joining us live will be Graves' sister Linda Fabian and other members of the Graves family, who will share memories of William, reflect on hearing his voice again after all these years, and discuss what the tapes have meant to their family. During the program, we will also play selections from the recordings themselves, allowing audiences to hear Capt. Graves in his own words. This special Memorial Day conversation is about remembrance, family, loss, and the enduring humanity behind military service. It's also a rare opportunity to encounter the Vietnam War not through history books, but through the preserved voice of one man who lived it. The Veterans Breakfast Club creates communities of listening where veterans, families, historians, and the public come together to share stories and preserve personal history. Our programs are informal, conversational, and open to all. #MemorialDay #VietnamWar #Veterans #WilliamBoydGraves #VietnamVeteran #MilitaryHistory #POWMIA #VeteransStories #OralHistory #USArmy #Vietnam #MemorialDay2026 #VeteransBreakfastClub Often remembered as the calm, steady “GI's General” of World War II, General Omar Bradley commanded more American soldiers in combat than any other officer in U.S. history. Yet compared to Eisenhower, Patton, and MacArthur, Bradley remains a surprisingly enigmatic figure. Was he the humble soldiers' general of popular memory? A cautious strategist? A political insider? Or something more complicated? Join Greatest Generation LIVE for a fascinating conversation with military historian Dr. David W. Hogan, Jr., former Director of Histories at the U.S. Army Center of Military History and one of the nation's leading experts on Bradley. Hogan has spent decades researching the U.S. Army in World War II and is currently completing a major biography of Bradley, Omar Nelson Bradley: The GI's General. Drawing on years of archival research, Hogan will explore Bradley's rise from small-town Missouri to the highest ranks of the American military, his relationships with Eisenhower and Patton, his command during Normandy and the Battle of the Bulge, and his postwar role as the nation's first Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the early Cold War. This program will examine not only Bradley the general, but Bradley the man — modest, disciplined, intensely loyal, and still debated by historians today. #OmarBradley #WWII #GreatestGeneration #MilitaryHistory #WorldWarII #Dday #BattleOfTheBulge #USArmy #Veterans #History #Patton #Eisenhower #KoreanWar #VBC #VeteransBreakfastClub

On this Make A Difference Minute, I'm honored to share a special recording from my friend, the late Sgt. George Mills, a World War II veteran, former prisoner of war, and a man who dedicated his life to serving others. Captured during the Battle of the Bulge and later liberated in 1945, Sgt. Mills understood sacrifice in ways few ever will. For years, he shared something he called “Toast to the Flag.” More than a presentation, it was a heartfelt reflection on the meaning behind the red, white, and blue and the freedoms represented by the American flag. When Sgt. George Mills spoke about patriotism, sacrifice, and this country, he spoke from experience. His words carried the weight of someone who lived through war, endured hardship, and never stopped believing in service to others. I'm thankful to call Sgt. Mills my friend and honored to share his legacy with you on this Memorial Day. This MADM is brought to you by Bama Estate Planning by Attorney Harlan D. Mitchell, proudly supporting stories and the people who make our communities strong. Real stories. Real people. Real impact. News That Unites!™️

CannCon and Alpha Warrior throw out the usual format and turn the show over to the audience for a Memorial Day special. Before the lines open, the guys go round and round on whether stolen elections are best called fake or fraudulent, with Alpha holding the line on stolen and gay over fake and gay. They cover Johnny Joey Jones reenlisting in the Marine Corps at 40 with no legs, what that signals about the civilian military force the CIA quietly admitted exists, and CannCon's own story of getting forced out by Obama-era downsizing after a shoulder reconstruction. Then the calls start rolling in. Kairos reads her original poem "Hey, Ron" written for her Vietnam vet neighbor. Claire Cat honors her dad, two uncles, and British father-in-law who served from Iwo Jima to the Battle of the Bulge to pulling pilots out of London's fields. Smay calls in from the regular Army era of 1970s pay. Space Monkey shares twenty nine Palms memories. Lion AZ tells the story of her granddaughter discovering she had a relative who served. Pan Blanco, age 84, remembers his recon Marine brother G. Edward Dyer. CannCon closes with a plug for the Mighty Oaks Warrior Program.

SIMON discusses history and....history. There's a new movie coming out SIMON wants to see called 'Lucky Strike' about the Battle of the Bulge. It's hailed as having the same level of realism as 'Saving Private Ryan' did and brings WW2 to the forefront for a new generation. And speaking of history and a new generation, there's a lot of hubbub from an Iowa Democrat Senator over a new bill headed to the Governor's desk that will require Iowa college and university students to learn....*gasp*….American history and American government!

On this episode of the Brief Talk Podcast, UNB Tim sits down with Joey to talk about his journey into the world of thongs, Speedos, swimwear, and body confidence. What started with seeing go-go dancers at a club turned into a full love of bold swimwear, thong culture, and building confidence through self-expression.   Joey shares how he first experimented with thongs, the brands he loves, and how travel helped him become more comfortable wearing them publicly. From Punta Cana and Hawaii to Palm Springs and Hollywood Beach in Chicago, the conversation dives into the freedom and confidence that comes from finding the right gear and the right community.   The guys also discuss thong tan lines versus Speedo tan lines, favorite brands like Hunk, Grand Axis, N2N, MCE, and Glute God, and why bold prints and daring cuts make swimwear even more fun. Joey opens up about encouraging his boyfriend and even straight friends to try thongs for the first time — and how many end up loving them once they give them a chance.   There's also a bigger conversation about community. Tim and Joey talk about the importance of creating spaces where guys can feel comfortable wearing what they love without judgment. From Thongers Weekend to future Free the Bulge travel ideas, this episode is all about confidence, friendship, and building a supportive community around self-expression.   If you've ever been curious about trying a thong, wearing a Speedo publicly, or just embracing more confidence in your own skin, this episode is for you.

Send us Fan MailA lot of towns get remembered for a stadium or a slogan. Bryan-College Station deserves to be remembered for a man most people can't name and for the living history that still surrounds Texas A&M. We trace the life of Major General James Earl Rudder, born in tiny Eden, Texas, who goes from teacher and coach to leading the 2nd Ranger Battalion on D-Day at Point Du Hoc, where Rangers scale 100-foot cliffs under brutal fire, take enormous casualties, and still get the mission done. We also follow him into the Battle of the Bulge, where his unit fights outnumbered and holds long enough to slow the German advance.From there, the story shifts from battlefield to public service. Rudder returns home, racks up a lifetime of honors, and eventually becomes president of Texas A&M and later leads the Texas A&M University System. That arc gives real weight to a visit in College Station, because the campus is not just a place to tour, it is a place to understand how military tradition, leadership training, and Texas history intersect.Then we get practical: what to do in College Station and Bryan if you're building a weekend trip. We talk can't-miss stops like Rudder's statue, the Corps of Cadets museum displays, the George H. W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum, and the Museum of the American GI. We also share travel tips on Kyle Field, Veterans Memorial Park, great local hotels like The George and Cavalry Court, the surprisingly strong food scene, plus stops like Brazos Distillery, Messina Hof, and more.

My guest today is William Hogan, and we are going to be talking about the remarkable story of his father, Sam Hogan, and the men of Task Force Hogan. At just twenty-eight, Sam was one of the youngest lieutenant colonels in the US Army, commanding a battalion of Sherman tanks in the Normandy Campaign only weeks after D-Day. From the hedgerows of France through to the Battle of the Bulge and on into Germany, his unit fought at the sharp end of some of the toughest fighting in north-west Europe. William has written about his father's experiences in 'Task Force Hogan: The World War II Tank Battalion That Spearheaded the Liberation of Europe'.   patreon.com/ww2podcast

After being captured at the Battle of the Bulge, Master Sergeant Roddie Edmonds unexpectedly became the commanding officer of 1,200 American POWs. The Nazis demanded that he present the Jewish American soldiers to them and his heroic response risked his own life—and ultimately saved over 200 Jewish lives! The newly announced Medal of Honor recipient will teach you what real moral courage looks like. Support the show: https://www.normalfolks.us/#joinSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sometimes you just have to hit record and talk honestly. In this Editor's Note episode, UNB Tim pulls back the curtain on what's happening behind the scenes with Underwear News Briefs, the podcast, and the growing Free the Bulge movement. This episode is about transparency, community, and the future of everything we're building together. Two major things are happening right now: • The launch and growth of the Free the Bulge movement • Expanding the Patreon community to support the shows and future projects UNB Tim shares the inspiration behind the movement, the long-term vision for building real community, and how listeners can be part of it. ⸻ The Free the Bulge Movement Free the Bulge isn't just about underwear, swim briefs, or spandex. It's about confidence, acceptance, and community. For years, UNB Tim has heard the same thing from guys in the underwear and gear communities: • “Where can I meet other guys like me?” • “How do I find friends who understand this side of me?” • “Why does society shame men for enjoying what they wear?” Free the Bulge is about changing that. It's about creating a space where all men are welcome — gay, straight, bi, curious — anyone who loves gear and wants to feel confident in their own skin. Because when guys talk about underwear, gear, or swimwear, something amazing happens: Their faces light up. And that joy deserves a community. The long-term goal is simple: • Build a supportive community • Encourage body confidence • Normalize men enjoying what they wear • Eventually create real-world meetups and events This movement has been in the works for years, and now it's finally time to make it happen.   ⸻ What's Coming Next The Free the Bulge movement is rolling out in phases. Some things already underway include: Weekly Free the Bulge Posts Every Monday on Underwear News Briefs, UNB Tim will post: • personal stories • thoughts about confidence and body positivity • updates on the movement • future community ideas Some posts will be personal. Some may include guest voices. But they'll all come straight from the heart. Live Podcast Discussions Another upcoming feature is interactive live shows. Using Riverside, listeners will be able to: • join live recordings • call in • share their stories • participate in honest conversations Because the best discussions happen when the community is involved. Listener Stories One of the most exciting parts of the movement is hearing from listeners. Through the new contact form on the site, guys can: • share their stories • talk about confidence • discuss how gear became part of their identity Some stories may appear on the blog. Others may turn into podcast interviews. The goal is simple: Let real guys tell their stories. ⸻ Future Meetups & Trips One of the long-term goals of the movement is something many listeners have been asking for: In-person community events. UNB Tim is exploring ideas like: • community meetups • gear-friendly travel trips • group travel to places like • San Diego • Chicago • Miami • Palm Springs • Puerto Vallarta • even international destinations Imagine traveling with a group of guys who share the same interests and confidence. That's where this movement is headed. ⸻ Supporting the Podcast Through Patreon Running the blog and podcast takes time, resources, and tools. UNB Tim shares exactly how Patreon support currently helps keep things running. Monthly costs include: • Podcast hosting • Canva for graphics • Riverside for recording • website storage and infrastructure Right now Patreon brings in about $115–$135 per month, which essentially covers the core expenses of running the show.   But growing Patreon would allow the show to expand even more. Future goals include: • hiring an editor • compensating regular co-hosts • producing more shows each week • recording podcasts on location at events One piece of gear UNB Tim is looking at is a portable podcast recorder that would allow live recordings at events like Kink Down South and other gatherings. ⸻ Patreon Perks Joining Patreon helps support the podcast and unlocks bonus content. Patreon members may get: • extended conversations • behind-the-scenes discussions • bonus segments • experimental shows and topics The main podcast will always remain free, but Patreon helps make additional content possible. There's also a free Patreon membership option, which will act as a newsletter for updates about: • Free the Bulge • new podcast episodes • blog updates • community plans ⸻ Why This Community Matters The underwear and gear community has always existed. But it hasn't always had a place to connect. Free the Bulge is about creating that space. A space where guys can: • share their interests • build friendships • feel confident • talk openly without shame And that community only exists because of you — the listeners. ⸻ Listen to the Upcoming Shows Two episodes are dropping this week: • Brief Talk Podcast with Zach • Stretching the Truth — Short Suits in Spandex with Scott (Fourway) Make sure you check both of them out. ⸻ Join the Community If you want to be part of the movement: Share the podcast. Follow the blog. Tell your story. And most importantly: Be confident in what you love. ⸻ Support & Follow UNB Blog https://underwearnewsbriefs.com Patreon https://patreon.com/unbblog Instagram https://instagram.com/unbtim BlueSky https://bsky.app/profile/unbtim.bsky.social Reddit https://reddit.com/r/unbstoreandblog Brief Talk Podcast Available on all major podcast platforms ⸻ If you enjoyed this episode, share it with a friend and help grow the community. Because the more guys who join the conversation… the stronger the community becomes. — UNB Tim

⭐Judgment at Nuremberg (1961) - When "Just Following Orders" Fails (Plot Synopsis) ⭐

Dominick Critelli was born in Italy and came to the United States as a child. He was 20 years old when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and launched the U.S. into World War II.

*This episode mentions suicide and may be triggering for some listeners. This week, in celebration of Super Bowl Sunday, we’ll hear from Tim Green, a former NFL player, bestselling author, and commentator. Tim, who now speaks with the assistance of technology due to a diagnosis of ALS, reflects on a life marked by ambition, the identity-shaking diagnosis of this neurodegenerative disease, and the perspective that transformed his understanding of what matters most in life. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Mike Flynt, whose story inspired the 2023 sports drama film The Senior. One day when talking with his friends, Mike shared one of his deepest regrets—getting kicked off the college football team as a senior.

My life’s work now is about family, about helping others, and about using whatever time and gifts God has given me to make a difference.” - Tim Green “God had other plans—plans that were bigger than anything I could have imagined. Looking back, every step prepared me for the next one. He was weaving the story long before I knew it.”- Tim Green “What really matters is your faith, family, and identity in Christ—not in a jersey or a job. Football gave me a platform, but it’s faith and family that gave me a purpose.” - Tim Green “My diagnosis forced me to confront what really matters—to put Christ at the center, not tucked quietly in the background. It made every day, every relationship, every breath more precious and more purposeful.” - Tim Green “One morning, I woke up with a clarity I didn’t create that this wasn’t the end of my story. I realized that God had left me here for a reason. Maybe to show that even in suffering, His goodness can still shine. That moment was a second chance, and I wasn’t going to waste it.” - Tim Green “Prayer became less about asking and more about resting. Peace came in small moments—a hand held, a smile, a sunset—reminders that God was still here.” - Tim Green “Every chapter of my life has required a deeper anchor than achievement. When the applause stops, when the career ends, when the body fails, you need a foundation that won’t.” - Tim Green “It was my profession of faith in Christ, and my realization that I know so little about Him, that started me on my journey in faith that I still pursue today.” - Mike Flynt “So many people need to know that somebody else has overcome and that Christ was there and they can take that same concern, those same weaknesses, to Him and know that if He did it for Mike, He’d do it for anybody.” - Mike Flynt ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

Crazy story.  Walter Georis wrote the soundtrack to the iconic surf film, The Endless Summer. With desires to make it big in music, the soundtrack would be their swan song in show business. What happens after, is shear career poetry. I have to tell you that sitting down with Walter Georis was the kind of podcast taping that makes me glad I do this show. There's something about a man whose life story connects surf music, fine dining, art, and wine that just puts a smile on your face—especially when he unspools it with such humble, matter-of-fact wisdom. Now, I didn't know much about Walter Georis before a friend tipped me off. I got an email out of the blue—one of those you almost skip past in your inbox. My friend, who I used to surf with in Palos Verdes, had been up late thinking about "The Endless Summer." He does a quick search, and boom—finds out that the guy who wrote the music for that iconic film now owns a winery up in Carmel Valley. He tells me, "Paul, you've got to talk to this guy!" And, boy, am I glad I did. From the start, Walter Georis came off with a grounded, European sensibility—someone raised on the value of seasons, making things from scratch, and, most importantly, letting nature express itself. I loved his opening line: "I don't do anything to the wine to manipulate it…" For him, a vintage is a vintage, and that's the story in the bottle. As someone who's spent a lifetime talking with both big-shot and backyard winemakers, this kind of honesty always jumps out at me. What floored me about Walter Georis was the stories. Here's a Belgian kid, can hardly swim, never surfed, but ends up shaping the sound of California's surf music scene in the sixties! He and his buddies, playing in garages and school gyms, end up composing for "The Endless Summer"—and not by luck, but because they show up, put in the hours, and play for the right parties (and some of the right glassers, too—if you know, you know). And, this is the kicker—he does all this as a French speaker, blending right in with the "stoked, it's a trip" Southern California crowd. But Walter Georis's life isn't about hanging onto some faded record label glory. He's got this restless, creative spirit. After the music, he turns to art, painting eight hours a day in Carmel, living on the cheap. He spends years finding his style, blending the abstract with the figurative—until, naturally, he finds himself in the hospitality business, opening Casanova and La Boheme Song with his family. This is what I love: the European model, building legacy, not just chasing a fast-growing, flash-in-the-pan restaurant business. And Walter Georis gets it right—places that become international, drawing in everyone from actors to race car drivers, all wanting a piece of that Carmel magic. But for me, this episode really shines when we dig into the winemaking. Walter Georis talks about honest wine—the idea that you don't mess with what the vineyard gives you. He gets animated describing the soil, the minerality, the farming, the blending. He talks of Merlot and Cabernet, about planting olive trees, raising sheep (well, until the insurance company got involved)—all these things that anchor you to the land and seasons. He reminds me that great wine isn't about ego or a label; it's about caretaking, patience, storytelling. The conversation wraps with stories of his mother giving birth during the Battle of the Bulge in a wine cellar. There's a sense that all these threads—history, survival, family, creativity—flow right into the glass he pours. A life, a terroir, an honest wine. And that, my friends, is why I do Wine Talks.     #WineTalks #WalterGeoris #PaulKalemkiarian #CarmelValley #EndlessSummer #SurfCulture #Winemaker #CaliforniaWine #MusicHistory #RestaurantLife #HonestWine #ArtAndWine #WinePodcast #BordeauxVarietals #CasanovaRestaurant #WineStories #VineyardLife #Terroir #FarmToTable #AmericanWine

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) On this special Christmas Day episode, Bryan steps away from daily headlines to reflect on faith, peace, and goodwill through two extraordinary moments from history. He begins by celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ and the enduring call for peace found in the Gospel of Luke, setting the tone for a morning of remembrance and reflection. The episode revisits the Christmas Truce of 1914 during World War I, when tens of thousands of British and German soldiers laid down their weapons, crossed no man's land, sang carols, shared food, cut each other's hair, and even played soccer. Bryan recounts firsthand accounts from soldiers who witnessed this spontaneous peace, as well as the outrage of generals who later ordered the fighting to resume. Bryan then shares a lesser-known but deeply moving story from Christmas Eve 1944 during the Battle of the Bulge. In a small cabin in the Hürtgen Forest, a German mother sheltered wounded American soldiers and later welcomed lost German troops, insisting on peace, prayer, and compassion inside her home. Decades later, her son's search for the Americans she saved leads to a reunion that confirms her courage preserved life and left a lasting legacy of goodwill. The episode closes with a reminder that even amid war, humanity, faith, and moral courage can still shine, offering listeners a powerful reflection on what Christmas truly means.    "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32     Keywords: Christmas Day episode, Wright Report Christmas, Christmas Truce 1914, World War I Christmas, World War II Christmas Eve 1944, Battle of the Bulge, Hürtgen Forest cabin, goodwill toward men, faith and history, Bryan Dean Wright Christmas message

Montgomery, commanding ground forces for D-Day, gave a "scintillating" and persuasive briefing on his revised Overlord plan. He set objectives in Normandy, like capturing Caen, that were perhaps beyond the means of his exhausted British troops, worsening his relationship with American generals. Montgomery's Operation Market Garden failed to achieve its objectives; the absence of his trusted chief of staff, Freddy Duingan, removed a critical checks and balances system. Rommel showed moral courage by standing up to Hitler in June 1944, arguing the war was over and negotiations were necessary. Patton's swift repositioning of his Third Army to relieve Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge was his finest hour, surprising both allies and Germans.
