AJ Pasciuti grew up in Sunnyvale, California, the son of Italian and Argentine immigrants. After 9/11 reshaped his sense of purpose, he enlisted in the Marine Corps and was assigned to 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines, 1st Marine Division — one of the most storied units in the Corps — where he served as a rifleman and team leader. Over twenty-one years of service, he deployed three times to Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, including the Battle of Fallujah. He led a Scout Sniper team that tracked and killed the most lethal enemy sniper in Iraq — a figure known as "Juba" — and recovered a stolen Marine sniper rifle in what was the first mission of its kind by an American service member since Vietnam. He went on to serve with 3rd Reconnaissance Battalion and 2nd Force Reconnaissance Company, deploying to Helmand Province, Afghanistan, during Operation Enduring Freedom and later with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit. As an instructor, he taught at the Scout Sniper School at Camp Pendleton, created the Recon Team Leaders Course, and helped develop the Infantry Marine Course at School of Infantry–West, modernizing foundational training for enlisted Marines. Selected for the highly competitive Marine Gunner program, he became an Infantry Weapons Officer and rose to Chief Warrant Officer 3 before retiring from the Marine Corps in 2023. He holds a Master of Business for Veterans from the University of Southern California and a Master of Public Leadership from the University of San Francisco, and is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Leadership Studies at the University of San Diego. He is the host of the Combat Story podcast and the author of Darkhorse: Harnessing Hidden Potential in War and Life, releasing May 19, 2026.

The conditions service members live in directly affect Military readiness and national security. It's the responsibility of Congress to authorize military funding to ensure the warfighter has what they need in combat and at home. Every decision impacts the strength of the force and their families.In this episode, Fran Racioppi sat down with Representative Mike Levin, who serves California's 49th District and sits on the House Appropriations Committee, Subcommittee on Military Construction and Veterans Affairs to discuss the policies and decisions shaping today's military bases. From investments in infrastructure at Camp Pendleton to broader oversight of Veterans Affairs, Congressman Levin outlines why improving living conditions, facilities, and support systems is essential to maintaining a ready and capable force.Our conversation explores the responsibility of leadership to develop a culture where reporting substandard conditions is encouraged. We also discuss the broader role of Congress in overseeing military operations, and the importance of transparency, strategy, and accountability when American forces are deployed.Congressman Levin shares his perspective on the war with Iran, his views on the need for checks and balances, and the growing divide that has made bipartisan governance more difficult. He emphasizes that strong institutions require leaders willing to put mission over politics and to ensure that the constitutional framework guiding military action is upheld.This is a conversation about leadership, accountability, and the systems that support those who serve. It is about ensuring readiness not just on the battlefield, but across the entire force.Highlights:0:00 Introduction1:53 Welcome to the Jedburgh Podcast3:19 California's 49th District6:34 Improving Military Housing14:25 Status of the Iran War19:37 Is Iran A Direct Threat To The US?22:08 Iran's State Sponsorship of Terrorism25:20 Negotiating with Iran28:41 Bridging the GapQuotes:“It is imperative that we treat our veterans and military families with absolute respect.”“We've got real issues with barracks.”“We're not looking for the Ritz Carlton.

We want to introduce you to Yukon. This handsome guy would love to trade kennel life for the Yukon if he had the option! He is a Husky/Malamute mix (heavy on the malamute) who is 9 years young. Yukon came from Camp Pendleton-- yes, that Camp Pendleton! While he was not qualified for service as a US Marine, he lived on base. He was passed from family to family through the years that he spent there. He would be given a home, then the family would get transferred to a new base and would leave Yukon behind to be adopted out by a new family. Yukon went through approximately 9 families because of this sad cycle. He was then adopted by what truly seemed to be his fur-ever family. He had children and a dog sibling to share his home with. The children suffered from severe allergies and the parents were constantly on the hunt for the cause. After a full allergy screening, it was determined that the saliva from both dogs were the cause of the allergies the children were suffering from. The family then has to make the heartbreaking choice to rehome both of their dogs. The task of cramming allergy meds into a young child is a daunting task and we can understand that. The other dog was rehomed fairly quickly by the family. Yukon, however, wasn't as lucky. No one wanted a big, 'old dog'. Let's be correct. The right people didn't want an 'old dog'. Yukon is a gentle soul. He loves people and is wonderful with young children. His previous family has a three-year-old who would snuggle and lay with Yukon. He seemed to relish the moments with the children. He wasn't even bothered when the now nine-month-old child came along. Yukon is house trained, good with other dogs and children and UTD on his vaccinations. Yukon also knows basic commands such as "sit". He isn't troubled by the noise of the kennel. He looks at us so sweetly and quietly, and we know we need to get him back into a permanent home. Would you be willing to give him a cool floor to lie down on and a backyard for sniffing? Will you be the FINAL family and home he ever has to get used to? We want to get Yukon into his fur-EVER home more than anything as the heat of the season approaches. This lovable pup has paid his dues with age and shouldn't have to look for another family AGAIN, but here he is. He has never seen a cat so he isn't sure if he will tolerate them, but he is great with children, including the young ones. If you can find it in your heart to share a life with a soul as beautiful as Yukon's, please come meet him at our shelter, Van Buren County Animal Control. We are located at 58040 County Road 681, Hartford, MI. Our phone number is 269-621-4624. We don't think that you'll be disappointed by this guy!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Casey Stumpf is a nurse practitioner with 18 years of clinical experience spanning emergency medicine, military family health at Camp Pendleton, hospice care, and hormonal optimization. She holds a Menopause Society Certified Provider credential and a bachelor's in dietetics from UC Davis. She now runs a practice in California focused exclusively on perimenopause, menopause, and hormonal health for both men and women. In 2002, a study got published before the researchers finished reviewing it. The media ran with one conclusion: estrogen causes cancer. For the next two decades, women were stripped of hormone therapy and told to white knuckle through the worst years of their lives. That same study actually showed women on estrogen alone had 18% less breast cancer. Nobody reported that part. Casey walks through exactly what happened, why the data was misread, and what six decades of fear have cost 75 million American women — only 5% of whom are on hormones today. We get into the real mechanics of what perimenopause does to the brain and body, why testosterone is her favorite hormone for women, the connection between untreated menopause and Alzheimer's, hip fractures, heart disease, and divorce. She talks about sitting bedside through hundreds of hospice deaths and how that shaped everything she does now. We talk about our mom's end-of-life letter, our dad's refusal to age gracefully, and what it means to build your 80-year-old self in midlife.  https://theradiantwelltality.com/   Today's Sponsors:  Montana Knife Company: https://www.montanaknifecompany.com Brunt:  For a limited time, our listeners get $10 off at BRUNT when you use code "clearedhot" at checkout.

Michael Alice for shielding a Polish soldier during a 2013 Taliban attack—followed by a blunt reminder of why people actually serve. From a 10th Mountain Division deployment to CENTCOM, Golden Knights season prep, and the rising age of Army recruits, the brief moves into jungle medicine training in Hawaii, artillery and demolitions live fire at Schofield Barracks, and Arctic testing of small unmanned aerial systems where batteries and cold collide.

In this episode of “Carlsbad: People, Purpose and Impact,” host Bret Schanzenbach sits down with Paola Richard, CEO and founder of Gelato Love in Carlsbad Village.Paola shares her global upbringing in Rome with roots across Europe, her early career as a seven-time Italian national synchronized swimming champion training in California, and her transition into marine biology and science journalism, where she wrote and produced content on conservation for outlets like National Geographic Italy and national television.Seeking a new life adventure, Paola moved back to California, fell in love with Carlsbad, and—thanks to a suggestion from her brother and cousin—made a bold pivot from journalism to entrepreneurship, launching a gelato shop originally called Gaia. With strong support from the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce, she opened her first store in the Carlsbad Village Faire and eventually rebranded to Gelato Love for clearer, more emotional branding.Paola explains how she uses her science background to reinvent gelato: experimenting with allulose, a rare sugar that mimics sugar's taste and texture but doesn't spike blood sugar, allowing Gelato Love to create no-sugar-added, low-glycemic, clean-label gelato with no artificial stabilizers. They now produce about 5,000 pounds of artisan gelato a day, make custom recipes for clients like Camp Pendleton, and offer 36 flavors in-store out of more than 300 recipes she has developed.She describes navigating COVID-19 by building an online ordering and local delivery system that literally kept the business alive and brought “little celebrations” to families stuck at home—like the special delivery Bret ordered for his staff. Paola also shares details about her Italian market-style shop, which now includes imported foods, panettone, bags, and accessories from Italy alongside gelato cakes and classic desserts like tiramisu.Finally, Paola celebrates a huge milestone: being selected by historic Italian company Fabbri to create three specialty flavors (dark chocolate oat milk, lemon cream ginger, and strawberry cheesecake) now available nationwide on Amazon, shipped frozen with dry ice. For Paola, every pint is a “gift of love” from Carlsbad to the rest of the country, and she dreams of further distribution while keeping quality, craft, and “guilt-free celebration” at the center of Gelato Love.

From there, we turn inward as the nation collapses into civil war. The Marine Corps splits in two, with brother facing brother at sea and on land, from Bull Run to Charleston Harbor, from the ironclads at Hampton Roads to the final assault at Fort Fisher.

In other words, it is the fallacy of inferring a causal relationship from a temporal one.

Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they as they have plenty to say about the shocking break-in and horrible security at the Louvre, the U.S. Army's major push into nuclear power, President Trump commuting the sentence of George Santos, and another California controversy that's literally explosive.First, after briefly noting the break-in and alarming security lapse at the Louvre, Jim and Greg turn to the U.S. Army's ambitious plan to install nine small nuclear reactors across key military bases. They applaud the move as a major step toward energy independence and boost warfighting capabilities.Next, they rip President Trump's commutation of convicted serial fraudster and expelled former New York Rep. George Santos after he served almost three months of a seven-year sentence. While still a convicted felon, Santos will no longer need to pay restitution to his victims. Unsurprisingly, Santos says he wants to focus on the future and not the past. Jim says this smells like Trump simply rewarding a political ally. Finally, they tackle the California uproar over closing Interstate 5 during the U.S. Marine Corps' 250th anniversary celebration at Camp Pendleton. Gov. Gavin Newsom ordered the shutdown due to live ordnance, but the Marines insisted it wasn't necessary. California Highway Patrol officers report a small piece of shrapnel damaged one of their vehicles when an explosive went off prematurely. They also rip Newsom for his self-incriminating tweet about the No Kings protests.Please visit our great sponsors:Get 20% off your first purchase of classic menswear.

Join the Veterans Breakfast Club for an unforgettable evening with Colonel John R. Bates, USMC (Ret.), whose extraordinary 39-year career in the United States Marine Corps (1966–2005) spans three wars, five decades, and a lifetime of service defined by courage, conviction, and grit. Col. Bates enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1966, dropping out of college to join the fight in Vietnam. There, as a young infantryman with Company G, 2nd Battalion, 5th Marines, he endured some of the most harrowing combat of the war—earning three Purple Hearts for wounds suffered in battle. The first came when he was struck in the chest by machine-gun fire—“like standing over home plate with Mark McGwire swinging for the fences,” he recalls. The second came from a hand grenade explosion that drove searing shrapnel into his leg. The third was the most brutal: he fell into a North Vietnamese punji pit and was impaled through the foot by a three-foot bamboo stake, coated with water buffalo manure to ensure infection. After spending 23 days in intensive care, Bates defied medical orders, walked out of the hospital in a pair of boots and a hospital gown, caught a ride to the airfield, and returned to his platoon—still spitting up blood. “They needed more trigger-pullers,” he said simply. But the Marine Corps discharged him less than two years into his enlistment due to the severity of his wounds. He refused to stay out. Over the next seven years, Bates earned a bachelor's and two master's degrees while working as a brakeman, heavy equipment operator, and substitute teacher. All the while, he trained daily to prove he still had what it took to wear the uniform. He submitted five applications for readmission to the Corps—finally earning acceptance in 1975, not by sympathy, but by sheer persistence. “Quite honestly, I think I wore them down,” he said. As an officer, Col. Bates served around the globe, including in Operation Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom. He held numerous command positions, culminating in a dramatic parachute landing into his own retirement ceremony in 2005 at Camp Pendleton. Along the way, he promoted his own son to the rank of Marine captain, honoring a legacy of service that began with his father, Leland Bates, who flew 51 combat missions in World War II.

A former ranch owner in Temecula, California, describes a life-changing epiphany about Sasquatch after years of dismissing their existence. Living on a property with fruit trees and two large dogs, the narrator initially believed Sasquatch were confined to northern forests, not Southern California. However, after an accident left them bedridden, they became engrossed in Sasquatch-related videos, including one about two marines encountering a 12-foot Sasquatch at Camp Pendleton, just nine miles from their ranch. This triggered a realization that unexplained events on their property—silent nights, missing fruit from tall trees, a vanished coyote corpse, and their fearless dogs acting scared—could be linked to Sasquatch activity. The narrator recalls other suspicious incidents, like a military helicopter warning them while flying near the ranch, missing people along De Luz road, and a supposed DEA raid that seemed more like a cover for tracking something else. A conversation with their excavator, who was warned by a doctor about Sasquatch on a nearby property, and stories from workers about "monsters" at the border eating migrants, solidified their belief. The narrator now believes Sasquatch inhabit the nearby Cleveland National Forest and may prey on border crossers, reflecting on how close they might have come to encountering one while patrolling their ranch at night.Join my Supporters Club for $4.99 per month for exclusive stories:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/support

Things are getting absolutely insane in the LA Riots, troops are sent in Become A Member http://youtube.com/timcastnews/join In response to escalating unrest and riots in Los Angeles following recent ICE immigration enforcement operations, the Trump administration has deployed 700 active-duty Marines from Camp Pendleton to assist in restoring order. This federal intervention supplements the approximately 2,000 National Guard troops already mobilized in the city amid ongoing protests and incidents of violence.  Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass have criticized the deployment. Nevertheless, the Trump administration maintains that decisive federal action is necessary to prevent further disorder and uphold the rule of law.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- In response to a series of ICE raids intended to remove migrants residing in the United States unlawfully, protests broke out in Los Angeles, California—sometimes turning violent and destructive. Videos circulating on social media show ICE agents being assaulted with bricks and commercial-grade fireworks. Numerous vehicles—including Waymo self-driving taxis—were set on fire by violent demonstrators. As the New York Post notes, Waymo vehicles are electric and as they burn, the lithium-ion batteries are releasing toxic gases. Other videos show demonstrators burning American flags and chanting “F*** Trump.” As the protests carried on into the night, multiple businesses were looted in downtown Los Angeles, according to reports. 6:15pm- While appearing on CNN with host Dana Bash, Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT) accused President Donald Trump of being an authoritarian for deploying the California National Guard to stifle violent outbreaks in Los Angeles. Rich asks: Does Bernie think John F. Kennedy and Dwight Eisenhower were authoritarians when they federalized the National Guard to prevent violence and enforce the national expansion of Civil Rights? 6:30pm- According to polling data from CNN, 54% of Americans approve of the Trump Administration's program to deport immigrants illegally residing in the United States. While speaking to the press on the White House lawn, President Donald Trump referred to Los Angeles rioters as “insurrectionists”—noting that if he were Border Czar Tom Homan, he would consider arresting California Governor Gavin Newsom for interfering with ICE's deportation of illegal migrants. In response, Newsom has claimed Trump is “inflaming conditions” and has exceeded his authority to prevent violence, declaring: “Democracy is in the balance!” 6:40pm- In a post to X, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced: “Due to increased threats to federal law enforcement officers and federal buildings, approximately 700 active-duty U.S. Marines from Camp Pendleton are being deployed to Los Angeles to restore order. We have an obligation to defend federal law enforcement officers—even if Gavin Newsom will not.” 6:45pm- During the unrest in Los Angeles, Congresswoman Maxine Waters seemed to verbally harass National Guard members—yelling at them: “You going to shoot an elected official? If you shoot me, you better shoot straight. I don't know why you're in my city.”

 BREAKING: Los Angeles is BURNING! Illegal migrants and their allies are attacking ICE agents, clashing with police, and setting fires across the city. Riots, road blockades, and organized chaos are spreading to other U.S. cities where immigration laws are enforced. Who's funding and training these shockingly well-coordinated rioters?
