Happy June! We've got a couple of reviews to kick off your month here at Breakfast All Day: PRESSURE. We're catching up with this ultimate dad movie, which looks like it's about D-Day, but it's actually about weather. A solid, old-fashioned World War II drama. Andrew Scott, Brendan Fraser, Kerry Condon, Damian Lewis and Chris Messina star. In theaters. BACKROOMS LIVE SPOILER CHAT. There's so much we didn't want to ruin in our spoiler-free review of the A24 horror movie last week. But now that it's out -- and so many people have seen it -- we thought it was time to go more in-depth. This was a great conversation. Keep an eye out for more spoiler livestreams throughout the summer. Thanks for being here with us midweek! Subscribe to Christy's Saturday Matinee newsletter: https://christylemire.beehiiv.com/
In this June Q&A episode, we open up the Verballer mailbag and start looking ahead to preview season with some early college football summer loves. Which teams are we already talking ourselves into before the magazines arrive? Which programs are interesting, dangerous, confusing or just fun enough to pique our interest as the 2026 season gets closer? We also dig into first-time College Football Playoff possibilities, the rising risk of major transfer portal investments, and whether Curt Cignetti’s championship run at Indiana was more impressive than anything Nick Saban or Kirby Smart ever did in a single season. Plus, we talk through what fans of rebuilding teams should actually look for in Year 1, why playoff expansion arguments still feel slippery, and which players or teams are perfect for showing off at a June cookout. And, naturally, the episode eventually drifts into Brendan Fraser playing Dwight Eisenhower in a D-Day weather drama, bad old predictions, Drake Lindsey discourse, Arkansas despair, and Dan’s ongoing effort to make Ty regret his phrasing.

"If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt, it is mine alone." This is the end of the announcement Supreme Allied Commander General Dwight David Eisenhower had prepared in June 1944 in case the D-Day landings failed. He never had to deliver it, but the fact that he wrote it tells you all you need to know about how precarious the success of the invasion really was. And at the center of that uncertainty was something no army could control: the weather. This is the premise of the new major motion picture Pressure, the story of the small team of meteorologists trying to predict the unpredictable. Guest host Dr. Mark Jacobson sits down with the screenwriter of Pressure, David Haig, and the film's co-writer and director, Anthony Maras, to discuss how a simple weather forecast proved to be a critical piece of intelligence. *Note: It is Joan Clarke, not Joy.

Adam Holtz is temporarily indisposed (Paul Asay's version of events involves a closet), so Paul steps in from the Plugged In team at Focus on the Family to run through what's worth watching this weekend. First up: The Breadwinner, a PG comedy starring Nate Bargatze about a dad who discovers he has no idea how to run his own household once his wife leaves for a month — sweet, clean, and a genuine rarity at the multiplex. Then a heads-up for parents of teenagers: Backrooms is getting buzz, teens are already emailing Plugged In asking when the review drops, and the R rating is earned. Finally, a World War II drama that tells a genuinely underreported story — the meteorologists whose weather forecast either made or broke the D-Day invasion. Brendan Fraser as Eisenhower takes some adjusting to, but the history is real and the story is worth knowing. All three are in theaters.

Rob Couture welcomes back Kristina Keenan, Director of VFW National Legislative Service, alongside Ryan Gallucci, Executive Director of the VFW Washington Office, for a wide-ranging conversation on the latest veterans' legislation and advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill. The episode covers recent House Veterans Affairs Committee hearings on VA restructuring, toxic exposure oversight, expanded dental care, and transition support programs. The team also breaks down major updates surrounding the Major Richard Star Act, including growing bipartisan momentum and ongoing negotiations in Congress. Ryan and Kristina provide an important update on the VFW's fight against "claim sharks" following a significant federal court ruling against Veterans Guardian, reinforcing long-standing concerns about unaccredited companies exploiting veterans for profit. Later in the episode, co-host Brittany Dymond Murray sits down with Toni Lavery, co-founder and executive director of the Fox Force Foundation, to discuss empowering women veterans and first responders through mentorship, resilience, and community — including an upcoming historic all-women D-Day jump into Normandy featuring VFW National Commander Carol Whitmore.

On Thursday, May 28 at 7:00pm ET, VBC Greatest Generation Live takes a timely look at one of the most anticipated WWII films of the year: Pressure, the new historical drama about the tense and uncertain 72 hours before D-Day. Joining us live will be the film's director and co-writer, Anthony Maras, for a conversation with VBC historian Glenn Flickinger about the history behind the movie and the extraordinary real-life decisions that shaped Operation Overlord. Starring Brendan Fraser as General Dwight D. Eisenhower and Andrew Scott as meteorologist James Stagg, Pressure tells the little-known story of the weather forecast that may have determined the fate of the free world. As storms gathered over the English Channel in June 1944, Allied leaders faced an agonizing choice: launch the invasion or delay it and risk catastrophe. The film explores the immense burden carried by Eisenhower and the forecasters whose predictions helped decide the date of the Normandy landings. This special Greatest Generation Live program will explore the real history behind the film, the making of Pressure, and why the story still resonates more than eighty years later. Glenn Flickinger, who has led many acclaimed VBC programs on D-Day and Normandy history, will also discuss how the movie compares with the historical record and other famous depictions of the invasion. Select clips and trailers from the film may also be shown during the discussion. If you've ever wondered how weather, timing, leadership, and sheer uncertainty shaped the most important amphibious invasion in history, this program is for you. #DDay #PressureMovie #WWII #OperationOverlord #GreatestGeneration #Normandy #Eisenhower #MilitaryHistory #VeteransBreakfastClub

Five beaches became bloody battlefields, and that became the turning point of World War II. It was D-Day, June 6, 1944 when the allied forces invaded those beaches on the coast of France and began to move against and tore Germany. Of course Nazi stronghold after Nazi stronghold fell to those advancing allied troops, but the war still dragged on. Finally, the allies smashed into Berlin; the war still was on. Eventually, it came down to a few blocks around Hitler's bunker, and finally only after Hitler's death, the surrender came. Then the war was over. There had been a lot of victories along the way, but the war wasn't over until the last stronghold surrendered. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "The Last Stronghold." Our word for today from the Word of God comes right out of the life of Abraham. He has walked with God many years at the time this happens. And now in Genesis 22, the ultimate test of his faith. "Some time later, God tested Abraham, He said to him, 'Abraham!' 'Here I am,' he replied. Then God said, 'Take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love, and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains I will tell you about." Man! Imagine this! This is the son God promised; this makes no sense. And yet, Abraham, with the son he deeply loves, marches up Mount Moriah with the knife in his hand, with the wood for the sacrifice altar. In fact it says, "Early the next morning Abraham got up, saddled his donkey, and took with him his son, Isaac." Now, as I pointed out, when this happens, Abraham has walked with God many years. He's sacrificed his security back in his homeland. He's taken many risks for the Lord. He's fought battles for the Lord. He's believed God over and over again. And now God takes him to the edge of faith and asks him to surrender the dearest treasure he's got - Isaac - the last stronghold. Here is Abraham with his love for God on one hand and his love for something earthly on the other hand, and he must choose. Do you see what he does? He's up early the next morning. I would at least slept till noon. But he's up early the next morning; instant, immediate response, obedience. Look, you've walked awhile with the Lord, and maybe you've fought battles for him and you've sacrificed some security for Him, you've taken some risks, you've believed Him. But now the Lord is coming to you to ask you to surrender your Isaac; to do whatever He chooses to do with it. God supplied a ram in the thicket for Abraham, and it did not cost him his son. But Abraham didn't know that when he made this walk. What's your Isaac? A lifetime ambition, a dream of being married, your career, a position you really want, some material expectations, maybe a child that's become too important to you, your ministry. God is looking for you to take back that contract you've asked Him to sign. At the bottom, you know, you've got the things the way you want them and at the bottom you want it signed GOD. No. He wants a blank piece of paper that you have signed. He'll write on it. Are you going to obey Him? He'll never do you wrong. He died for you. It's a crisis in Lordship. Today He's asking you to lower that flag that says "Mine" on the last stronghold and raise the flag that finally says "His," because if He can have this, He can have anything. Once you release to God what or who you love the most, God will release to you power and peace like you have never known before.
Elyrea sells a kind of tour no traveler would think to search for, and Jean-Vladimir Deniau built the whole company around that fact.Jean-Vladimir Deniau is the founder of Elyrea, a French company that builds character-based immersive performances for the tourism market. The format is specific: a professional actor embodies a historical figure, Coco Chanel near Place Vendôme, Hemingway around Montparnasse, a GI on Omaha Beach, and walks a small group through that figure's neighborhood telling the story of their life. Deniau does not call himself a tour operator. He calls Elyrea a "Lego brick" that DMCs and tour operators build into the experiences they sell. The company has 15 of these performances running, almost all in France, and there is a structural problem at the center of it: nobody knows to ask for a tour with Coco Chanel, so the business cannot wait for B2C search demand. That one fact shapes how Elyrea picks its characters, how it sells, and how it funds itself.Mitch and Deniau cover the business behind the tours. Why Elyrea sells to the trade first and keeps its strongest tours off OTAs entirely. The capital-light model that built 15 tours with no outside investor. The four design rules behind a 90-minute performance, starting with the claim that you win or lose the audience in the first minute. And the recruitment problem of training an actor who learns the whole show, performs twice, and quits because the street is not the theater. Deniau also names the advice he would give any operator building an emotional experience: stay true to the place, do not overplay it, and keep the technology out of the way.Resources:Elyrea: elyrea.comLive actor booking for trade partners: elyrea.com/booking"The Colossus of Marousi" by Henry Miller, the travel book Deniau cites as the original spark

I'd love to hear your thoughts - send me a text hereBob Dole finishes the 1942-1943 school year at Kansas University and is almost immediately called up for active duty. His training timeline is changed multiple times - as does the military job he is training for - but once the Allies successfully land at Normandy on D-Day, he know that his time is coming. After being afraid that the war would end before he got into it, he is now sure he will be heading to the European Theater of Operation.
Hours before the Allied Forces hit the beaches of Normandy, courageous British and American soldiers entered France with parachutes and gliders to secure key bridges and enemy artillery positions. Their dangerous missions led the way for the D-Day invasion and ultimate victory in Europe. Wally Parr, Terance Otway and Bill True recount their dramatic stories, In Their Own Words.

Stalin strategically delayed Operation Bagration until two weeks after D-Day, ensuring that the Western Allies would exhaust German forces first. Using American steel, fuel, and Studebaker trucks, the Red Army emerged as a massive, mechanized force capable of expanding Soviet dominance from Berlin to Beijing. Sean McMeekin explains that after the war, the U.S. facilitated this rise by arming Stalin's far eastern armies while cutting off aid to the Chinese Nationalists in 1946. Ultimately, Lend-Lease provided the mobility and resources—including butter and sugar—that created the conditions for the Soviet Union to emerge as a global superpower. (8/8)1900
In this week's edition of The Front Page, Sam Hart, Lewis Porteous and Liam Headd look back at the key Classic trials and the potential stars among the three-year-old division. They also take stock of the Group 1 action from Newbury on Saturday and the Royal Ascot trials at Naas on Sunday. Thursday is D-Day for British racing, when the Gambling Commission's board is expected to be asked to approve the rollout of new affordability checks, which could have catastrophic consequences for the sport. Lewis looks at the latest developments on this story from the weekend and considers the outlook beyond Thursday. The panel also discuss the Irish 2,000 and 1,000 Guineas at the weekend, where Ballydoyle appear to hold the aces.
2 Sam 22, Romans 6:16-19 Steve Kiesel Victory in Jesus has great meaning and implications for us to understand the deliverance that Christ has given us. D-Day, also means we live in debt, where we are slaves to Christ and righteousness. We also are to delight in the Lord.

How does a Siberian peasant mystic end up controlling the most powerful empire in Europe? Could the rumours that destroyed a dynasty have been entirely false — and did they matter anyway? And, without Rasputin, would there have been no Lenin — and would the 20th century have looked completely different? Peter sits down with Sir Antony Beevor — bestselling author of Stalingrad, Berlin, and D-Day — to dig into his new book on one of history's most mythologised figures: Grigori Rasputin, the Siberian wanderer who charmed the Tsarina, antagonised everyone else, and whose murder was so catastrophically bungled it reads like black farce.0:00 From Siberia to the Imperial court — how a peasant mystic reached the centre of power 5:30 Holy fools, wandering pilgrims, and why Russia was always fertile ground for figures like Rasputin 10:00 The voice, the eyes, and the seduction: how Rasputin actually worked on people 13:00 The Tsarina's obsession — and why Antony Beevor is certain the rumours were fake news 17:30 How Rasputin's ministerial choices set the railways on fire and sparked a revolution 24:00 Rasputin was right about the war — and then made everything worse anyway 27:30 The assassination: poisoned cakes, Yankee Doodle, and a murder plot of spectacular incompetence 32:00 Putin, Nicholas II, and why historians should be wary of historical parallels 36:00 Without Rasputin, no Lenin?

In this episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we are joined by author Piers Blofeld to discuss his new book, Master of Lies: The Untold Story of Anthony Blunt, which re‑examines the most underestimated member of the Cambridge Spy Ring.Anthony Blunt was exposed as a Soviet agent in 1979 – long after the defections of Burgess, Maclean and Philby. For decades, he has been treated as something of an afterthought, a cultured art historian who happened to pass a few secrets to the Russians during the war. But Blofeld's research paints a very different picture – one in which Blunt was not a minor player but a master of deception whose actions had catastrophic consequences.Blunt was recruited by the NKVD in the 1930s, joined MI5 during the war, and rose to become Surveyor of the Queen's Pictures. Officially, he stopped spying in 1945. In reality, he continued operating well into the 1950s and 60s, using his flat to debrief agents and helping to investigate the very defections of his fellow spies.But his most significant work was not stealing documents – it was disinformation. Blofeld argues that the “postgraduate level” of espionage is misleading your enemy, and Blunt was a virtuoso. He ran a deception operation that mirrored the famous “Garbo” double‑agent network, feeding the Germans false information that helped ensure the success of D‑Day. Crucially, Blunt's information arrived at German High Command via Sweden four hours before Garbo's did – making the deception far more convincing.Yet just three months later, Blunt sabotaged Operation Market Garden, releasing detailed Allied order of battle to the Germans. The result was 16,000 Allied casualties, a failed advance into Germany, and a prolonged war that allowed Stalin to seize Eastern Europe. Blunt's betrayal, Blofeld argues, directly contributed to the partition of Berlin and the shape of the Cold War.We also explore how Blunt was protected by the British establishment for decades, how he edited incriminating evidence after Burgess and Maclean fled, and why Margaret Thatcher – herself misled by her own security services – finally named him in 1979.**Topics covered:**- The Cambridge Spy Ring and Anthony Blunt's role- Blunt's continued espionage after 1945- Disinformation as the highest form of espionage- The Garbo deception and Blunt's mirror operation- Operation Market Garden and Blunt's sabotage- The cover‑up and protection of Blunt by MI5- Thatcher's outing of Blunt and its aftermath---*Piers Blofeld's *Master of Lies* is available from all good bookshops.

Following Clinton's victory, Pamela was appointed Ambassador to France, a role she took with immense seriousness despite her lack of formal education. She became a highly respected diplomat, earning praise for her work on the 50th anniversary of D-Day and her "invisible but decisive" role in the Bosnia peace negotiations. She used her personal experience of the Blitz to provide a moral compass for ending the Balkan bloodshed, effectively bridging the gap between Washington and Paris. However, her final years were marred by stress from lawsuits filed by Averell Harriman'schildren over his fortune, which threatened her with bankruptcy. Under this pressure, she suffered a fatal brain hemorrhage while swimming at the Ritz in Paris. At her funeral, President Bill Clinton delivered a moving tribute, stating he would not have reached the presidency without her and praising her significant contributions to her adopted country.

In 1941, Pamela met Averell Harriman, the American overseeing Lend-Lease, and immediately recognized his importance to British survival. Tasked with enlisting him to the British cause, she used her beauty and intelligence to "bewitch" him, turning the aloof statesman into a passionate advocate for UK aid. Pamela became Churchill's "secret weapon," gathering vital military intelligence and White House thinking from influential Americans like Harriman and CBS reporter Ed Murrow. She and Murrow shared a deep, passionate relationship, and she fed him information to shape American public opinion in favor of the European war effort. Simultaneously, she managed multiple high-profile liaisons with American generals and intelligence officers, maintaining these critical back-channels without causing scandal. Her work helped solidify the nascent Anglo-American alliance. She was so well-embedded in the military leadership that she knew the timing of the D-Day invasion before it was publicly announced.

What does it actually take to lead at the highest stakes moments in history — and what can that teach us about leadership today? Susan Eisenhower, founder of The Eisenhower Group and granddaughter of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, joins Howard Schweitzer, chief executive officer of Cozen O'Connor Public Strategies, for a conversation that goes behind the history books and into the real story of how Ike led. From his willingness to challenge conventional wisdom while at West Point to commanding the Allied Forces on D-Day to the presidency, Howard and Susan explore what made Ike's leadership both extraordinary and deeply human — his authenticity, his humility, his willingness to accept failure, and his belief that democracy itself must be actively defended. Drawing on personal family insights that no historian could access, the discussion illuminates a model of principled leadership that feels not just relevant but urgently necessary.
Send us Fan MailWe tackle a publishing debate, draw writing wisdom from Taylor Swift, and dig into one of the most common craft problems in fiction — weak stakes and missing tension. Plus a community book shout-out.THE HARDBACK DEBATEBeth shares a Guardian article arguing hardbacks are outdated — too expensive, they kill buzz before the paperback drops, and lead with the least accessible format. Beth and Lisa push back: libraries and schools depend on durable formats, sprayed-edge editions have made hardcovers a Gen Z collector's item, and paperbacks consistently outsell. Lisa made hardcover a deal-breaker when negotiating Heart and Souls to protect library access.Read the article here.TAYLOR SWIFT AS A WRITING TEACHERSwift is a master of show-don't-tell — capturing massive emotion in a single precise phrase without ever stating it outright. Beth recommends the New York Times in-depth interview on her songwriting process as required reading for any fiction writer.CRAFT DEEP DIVE: STAKES, TENSION & CONSEQUENCESEvery story lives or dies on what is at risk. There are always two levels and you need both — external stakes (plot consequences) and internal stakes (identity, belief, sense of self).

Readers ask this unconsciously on every page.Answer with a specific consequence — not "things get harder" but something like "she'll spend the rest of her life wondering if he ever really knew her."Ask "so what?" once more. What does this cost the character in terms of who they ARE?

What happens when you hand the microphone to your daughter and tell her to ask whatever she wants — no prep, no filters? That's exactly what this episode is. My daughter Camryn sat down with me for a conversation I didn't see coming, asking questions designed to draw out the side of Dr. Debi that doesn't always show up in research discussions or keynote stages — the personal, the raw, the real. From what betrayal physically felt like in my body before I had any language for it, to what Stage Three actually looked like in our home, to what full transformation feels like at 60 with a grandchild on the way — this one goes places I rarely go publicly. If you've ever wondered what the behind-the-scenes life of someone who built the world's leading organization for betrayal recovery research, education and transformation looks like, this episode is for you. In This Episode: Why Dr. Debi prioritizes being the same person everywhere — and what that has to do with a world of shattered trust What betrayal felt like physically (hint: heartbreak is very real, and yoga almost broke her) What "functioning but not healed" — Stage Three — actually looked like in daily life The beliefs about betrayal she had to let go of that she never expected to question Her biggest fear about what her children would take from watching her go through it Why rebuilding with someone is harder than walking away — and what she learned from doing it What "wise trust" looks like now, and how it's different from before What Stage Five feels like in real life — 40 people in formal wear jumping in the pool, coffee time at 6am, and not caring what anyone thinks What she would say to herself on D-Day, the day everything came out Camryn's reflection on watching her mother not just rebuild, but transform — and what that gave the whole family A Note from Dr. Debi: I didn't know the questions. I didn't prepare. And that was the whole point. Camryn wanted to pull out the heart — not the researcher, not the speaker — just me. I think she did. I hope something in this conversation reaches you wherever you are in your journey. And if you're in the depths of it right now: hard now, easy later. You're so much stronger than you think.

It's Festive Friday and it's time for a heartfelt search for lost treasures! ABOUT THE CHRISTMAS RING A military widow falls in love while searching for her lost family heirloom. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR THE CHRISTMAS RING November 6, 2025 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF THE CHRISTMAS RING Director: Tyler Russell Writers: Karen Kingsbury, Tyler Russell Cast: Jana Kramer as Vanessa Mayfield Benjamin Hollingsworth as Ben Miller Kelsey Grammer as Howard Miller BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS We find out about a veteran named Bill Bailey who, on D-Day, parachuted in and stumbled upon a ring in the ground. He held onto this ring and cherished it forever. It's been passed down, generation to generation, until it goes to Vanessa, his great granddaughter. She lost it while skiing with her daughter. She's going from antique store to antique store trying to find it. She enters into Howard Miller's place that's holding a Christmas in July sale. As she's looking for the ring, a fella named Ben starts talking to her, asking what she's looking for. Ben is Howard's son. Ben keeps asking about her marital status. She finally opens up about losing her husband, who was also in the military. Ben says he's also a widower. Maybe it's time they both move on. They start hanging out, flirting and what not. Fast forward a bit and it's the holiday season. Vanessa's daughter comes home and she wants to tell her about Ben but keeps getting interrupted. We then see the hands of someone opening a box, filled with antiques, including her ring. He sets it off to the side. Turns out those hands belong to Howard. He thinks this ring could be worth a lot of money. Ben and Vanessa keep hanging out and Vanessa keeps not telling her daughter. Howard calls his son with good news! He found the diamond in the rough and it's worth $25,000! And a buyer is already lined up. She finally tells her daughter about Ben and it doesn't go well. As good a time as any to go ahead and go out on their first date. While out on the date, he realizes that the ring she's been looking for is the ring his dad has found. So he has to rush to the shop to make sure his dad doesn't sell it. He goes to tell him and he's like it's not her ring, I'm selling it, end of story. But Howard finally takes a look at the engraving, just like Ben asked. He knows it belongs to her, so he goes to give it to Ben. Ben surprises her at her big event by bringing her the ring and they end up kissing. Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtubeInterested in advertising on the show?

In Episode 330, Mark & Steve address a uniquely painful and confusing experience for many betrayed partners: living with a deep sense of betrayal and trauma without ever receiving a full disclosure or definitive proof of wrongdoing. We explain that the absence of a “D-Day” does not mean the absence of harm, and that many partners endure years of emotional instability, manipulation, and invalidation that create real trauma regardless of whether specific behaviors are confirmed. By expanding the definition of betrayal beyond isolated events, we highlight how patterns of defensiveness, objectification, coercion, and emotional withdrawal can erode trust and safety just as profoundly as more visible forms of infidelity.A central focus of the article is the concept of integrity abuse, where one partner not only engages in harmful behaviors but also controls the narrative surrounding those behaviors—often denying, minimizing, or reframing reality in ways that discredit the injured partner. This dynamic becomes even more damaging when combined with strong public image management, particularly in cases where the offending partner is respected in the community. The result is a devastating double bind in which the betrayed partner's reality is invalidated both privately and publicly, leading to confusion, isolation, and self-doubt.Ultimately, we emphasize that healing does not require a confession, proof, or acknowledgment from the partner who caused the harm. Instead, it begins with becoming “reality-anchored”—identifying what is known through lived experience, validating one's own pain, and releasing the need for external validation. By building a trauma-informed support system, establishing boundaries, and allowing space for grief, partners can reclaim their sense of truth, dignity, and stability. Even when the full story remains hidden, healing is still possible, and a grounded, empowered future can still be created.For a full transcript of this podcast in article format, go to: No D-Day, No Disclosure—But I KNOW I've Been Betrayed: Healing from Integrity Abuse When the Truth Is Still HiddenLearn more about Mark and Steve's revolutionary online porn/sexual addiction recovery and betrayal trauma healing program at—daretoconnectnow.comFind out more about Steve Moore at: Ascension CounselingLearn more about Mark Kastleman at: Reclaim Counseling Services
Join us at the North End of Pier 35 for a private tour of the SS Jeremiah O'Brien. See what Rosie the Riveter and Wendy the Welder helped create, and hear about the ship's fascinating history and the details of keeping a war machine's supply chains open and effective. Experience the ship as she was in 1943, tour her historic decks, and explore her engine room (powered by a functioning triple-expansion steam engine similar to the one used on the Titanic—and which was filmed in action by James Cameron for use in his 1997 movie). The Liberty Ship SS Jeremiah O'Brien, permanently docked at Pier 35, is a living museum of the Bay Area's crucial role in the massive production efforts required to equip the WWII Allies and keep them supplied under adverse wartime circumstances. Launched on June 19, 1943, from the New England Shipbuilding Corporation in South Portland, Maine, the SS Jeremiah O'Brien is one of the last survivors of the 2,710 Liberty ships that were built—and the only one that remains completely unaltered and fully operational. She carried troops and supplies across dangerous wartime seas, completing seven voyages to destinations as far-flung as Northern Ireland, India, Australia, and South America. She also made 11 crossings to the Normandy beachhead during the D-Day landings—a critical component of the largest seaborne invasion in history. In 1994, she journeyed through the Panama Canal and across the Atlantic Ocean to take part in the 50th anniversary of D-Day. She was the only Liberty ship— and the only vessel from the original invasion fleet—to return to the beaches of Normandy. Her voyage, widely celebrated in Europe and the United States, cemented her status as a symbol of courage, endurance and historical fidelity. And every year she still sails a few times on the Bay—always for May Memorial Cruise and for Fleet Week. A Humanities Member-led Forum program.

Does the way you speak as a leader unlock your people's potential or hold it back? In this episode, Kevin and Jeremie Kubicek discuss what it means to be a voice-driven leader and why people development often gets crowded out by the demands of daily work. Jeremie explains that great leadership starts with a real commitment to development, not just delegation, and requires leaders to understand how each person is wired, how they learn, and where they are in their growth journey. Their discussion highlights the importance of meeting people where they are, using the developmental square to guide support through onboarding, immersion, engagement, and multiplication, and helping team members avoid the "pit of despair" that can derail progress. Jeremie's Story: Jeremie Kubicek is the author of Making Your Leadership Come Alive and The Peace Index, and co-author of The 100X Leader, 5 Voices, 5 Gears, The Communication Code, and the newly released The Voice-Driven Leader: How to Hear, Value, and Maximize Every Voice on Your Team with Steve Cockram.

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

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, a U.S. F-15 has been downed in a desolate area of Iran. One crew member has been successfully rescued, while search efforts continue for the second. President Trump declined to discuss specifics of the ongoing search and rescue operation and said that the incident would not affect negotiations with Iran. Also, the White House has requested $1.5 trillion for defense in the new budget. This is a great proposal - national defense is the federal government's top responsibility. Later, the Democrats are telling us, repeatedly, that if they win the House, they will impeach the president and conduct a reign of terror against all who work for him, all who have worked for him, and do everything possible to cripple his presidency. We should not roll over and play dead as they burn down the country. Afterward, Mayor Zohran Mamdani released an Easter statement that completely omitted any mention of Jesus Christ, despite Easter specifically celebrating Christ's death and resurrection. This statement was issued intentionally on Good Friday, part of a deliberate pattern by the Muslim mayor of New York City. Finally, Col Allen West calls in to give an update on how the military is conducting their search and rescue mission for the missing F-15 fighter pilot. He also expresses his annoyance at the media Iran war coverage, viewing it as unconscionable criticism during active operations, akin to opposing troops on D-Day. Learn more about your ad choices.
