When combat veteran and Marine officer Mike “Mac” McNamara came home from war, he faced a new battlefield — trauma, family tragedy, and the broken systems meant to help him heal. Through pain, he discovered purpose, creating the Post-Traumatic Winning program and authoring From Trauma to Joy. In this episode, Mac joins DJ to talk about the truth behind healing, survivor's guilt, faith, leadership, and learning to fight for joy again. #FromTraumaToJoy #PostTraumaticWinning #MentalFitness #DTDpodcast #DynamicTalesDelivered #VeteranPodcast #USMC #CombatVeteran #PTSDAwareness #LawEnforcementWellness #FaithAndRecovery #HealingJourney #Resilience #OvercomingTrauma #VeteranStories
The battlefield changes you, but the real fight might start when you get home. Ben Sykes went from web designer to Marine machine gunner during the invasion of Iraq, living through relentless firefights, surreal moments in Saddam's palaces, and the strange calm of enemy fire becoming routine. But nothing prepared him for the turbulence of reintegration. Restless nights, the crash of losing combat's adrenaline, and the struggle to fit into a world that no longer made sense. In this conversation, Ben opens up about the chemical withdrawal of leaving war, the dangerous paths veterans can fall into, and the hard-earned lessons he wishes he'd known during his transition. Whether you've been in the fight yourself or love someone who has, his story is a brutally honest look at what it takes to reclaim your footing after service.

Leadership Under FireWhen I sat down with Lance Olmsted, I expected a story about discipline and precision.What I didn't expect was how deeply human it would be.Lance served as a U.S. Marine. He learned to lead in the most uncertain environments imaginable — where hesitation could cost lives and empathy wasn't optional.That's right...empathy. And you'll never forget why when you hear his story.Those lessons stayed with him and became a positive guiding force.Today, as President of Copperleaf, an IFS company, he's guiding global teams and helping industries use AI to make smarter, faster decisions.Before that, he helped drive a $1 billion unicorn exit by applying the same mindset that got his Marines home safe:✅ Focus on the mission, not the noise.✅ Act fast and adapt faster.✅ Build trust before you need it.✅ Lead with empathy, even under fire.His story is proof that military leadership still works — not because it's rigid, but because it's built on resilience, clarity, and purpose.Which part of this perspective resonates most with you?-----Follow Lance on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lance-olmsted-98708568/-----Connect with the Host, #1 bestselling author Ben FanningSpeaking and Training inquiresSubscribe to my Youtube channelLinkedInInstagramTwitter
Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump met with 800 of the military's top brass last week and it was difficult to process how demoralizing it felt. If you're like me, you didn't recognize your country as our president talked about bringing US cities “under control” and painting anyone who didn't agree with him as the “enemy from within”. There was a lot to be outraged about in that meeting, and plenty that felt terrifying, but the event was also just humiliating. For our country, for the brave men and women of the military who had to sit and listen, and for the speakers, who, quite frankly, embarrassed themselves. However, none of that limits the danger the event presents for nation on a crash course with dictatorship. Join me and Marine veteran and advocate, Janessa Goldbeck as we discuss.

Patrick fields heated questions from callers about Catholic parenting, the risks of sleepovers, and technology in family life. He responds to Vatican II skepticism with straight talk and compassion, jumps from workplace stories about faith stickers to discussions on Communion and cohabitation, and offers blunt advice without sugarcoating. Anything can happen here: a Marine is urged toward faith, a listener grabs Paul McCartney tickets before starting chemo, and throughout, Patrick blends humor, candor, and steady encouragement. John (email) - Since you believe sleep-overs are bad, do you also believe that Catholic summer camps are bad? (00:39) Emily - My Grandma thinks that my confirmation and marriage is not valid because she doesn't believe in Vatican II? (04:54) Adam - Story about a Relevant Radio bumper sticker that led to a conversation about the faith. I would like you to give him a shout out and why he should be Catholic.

When they went to camp, the counselors didn't believe them (20:44) Bob – My daughters went to a sleep over where they tried to put each other in trances (22:29) Eileen - Can an episcopal pastor receive communion on a Catholic retreat? (30:38) Tom - You were talking about an Episcopal Minister teaching priests.

Send us a textWhat if the title you're most proud of is the very thing holding you back from who you're meant to become? That's the heart of this powerful conversation with Marine infantry officer turned pastor and Mighty Oaks Foundation CEO, Jeremy Stalnecker. From leading Marines in the 2003 push to Baghdad with 1/5 to leading a church in Oceanside, Jeremy opens up about anger, dislocation, and a misplaced identity that nearly cost him his marriage and his calling—until trusted mentors stepped in with hard truth and hope.We unpack what it means to be a leader instead of just doing leadership, and how faith reframed Jeremy's view of the Marine Corps as a noble chapter—not a permanent identity. If you've ever felt stuck between who you were and who you're becoming, this episode offers clarity, courage, and perspective. The uniform comes off, but the mission continues.Connect with Jeremy Stallnecker
Send me a messageIn this week's episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain Podcast, I sat down with Ollie Taylor, Founder & Director of Marine Futures, to talk about one of the toughest nuts to crack in sustainability, decarbonising the marine industry. Boats, big or small, don't often top climate discussions, yet their materials, manufacturing, and fuel use carry a hefty footprint.Ollie explains how Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) can reveal the true environmental cost of marine products, from resin to recycling, and why so many “green” designs turn out to be anything but. We unpack how his platform, Marine Shift 360, is helping designers and builders make data-led choices early in the design phase, where up to 80% of a product's total impact is decided.We also dive into the data problem: how poor visibility, outdated datasets, and supplier secrecy distort sustainability claims. Ollie argues that transparency, education, and automation are key to bringing LCA into the mainstream, making it as essential as CAD or CFD in engineering.Other highlights include the promise of circular design to stabilise volatile supply chains, the limits of regulation versus commercial pressure, and why profitability and sustainability must align for real progress.If you care about data-driven design, circularity, and cutting emissions at the source, this episode is worth your time.
My guest for Episode #326 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Dr. William Harvey, a manufacturing executive and university professor whose career is defined by developing people, strengthening systems, and driving organizational excellence. A proud U.S. Marine, William carries forward a deep tradition of service and leadership. He also serves as the chair for the 2026 AME International Conference in Milwaukee, hosted by the Association for Manufacturing Excellence (AME). EPISODE PAGE WITH VIDEO AND MORE William shares a powerful early-career story about a mistake that taught him lasting lessons about trust, humility, and psychological safety. When he accidentally derailed a customer order by taking home the wrong document, he feared the worst. Instead, his manager's calm and compassionate response—and a customer's extraordinary effort to make things right—changed how William thought about leadership forever. Over time, William applied those lessons to how he leads teams and builds culture. He believes that leaders go first—by admitting mistakes, showing vulnerability, and creating space for others to experiment, fail, and learn. Through daily coaching cycles and methods like Toyota Kata, he helps people develop confidence in problem solving and take ownership of improvement. His goal: to build a workplace culture rooted in trust, respect, and continuous learning, where every person feels safe enough to speak up and strong enough to lead. Key Lessons & Themes: Why trusting your team is critical to avoiding unnecessary errors How supportive leadership responses turn mistakes into growth moments The connection between psychological safety, continuous improvement, and Toyota Kata How to “go first” as a leader—admitting your own mistakes to build trust The link between physical safety and psychological safety in world-class organizations What leaders can learn from Paul O'Neill and his “zero incidents” mindset at Alcoa

HEADLINE: Greenhouse Antarctica, the First Whales, and the Survival Strategies Post-Asteroid Impact BOOK TITLE: Other Lands, a journey through Earth's extinct world GUEST AUTHOR NAME: Thomas Halliday 200-WORD SUMMARY: This section begins in the Eocene (41 million years ago), a time of Greenhouse Earthcharacterized by no permanent polar ice, high CO2 (800 ppm), and temperatures about five degrees Celsius warmer than today. Seymour Island (West Antarctic Peninsula) hosted a diverse temperate rainforest before the onset of glaciation. The cooling process was triggered by the opening of the Drake Passage, which created the circum-polar current and isolated Antarctica from tropical warmth. Marine life included Pelagornis, a pseudo-toothed bird analogous to the albatross, and Basilosaurus, the first truly aquatic whale, which evolved from coastal predators. Despite the warmth, the Antarctic region still endured three months of total darkness in winter, requiring plants to drop their leaves. The conversation then shifts to the Paleocene following the K-Pg mass extinction. This extinction was caused by an exogenous asteroid strike in the Yucatan Peninsula, which halted photosynthesis worldwide for years due to atmospheric soot. Most animals larger than a small dog perished. The rapid diversification of mammals, specifically Eutherians (placental mammals), began immediately after the extinction event. Survival was facilitated by being small, insectivorous, and burrowing, which provided a stable environment against extreme temperature swings.

At just 21 years old, Dakota's actions during the Battle of Ganjgal in Afghanistan saved many lives when he repeatedly went against his orders and drove into a Taliban ambush zone to rescue trapped soldiers. He became the first living Marine in more than 40 years to receive the Medal of Honor. Today, he's a firefighter, entrepreneur, and New York Times bestselling author. Dakota is dedicated to developing leaders who can handle crisis and complexity. In our conversation, you'll hear why Dakota believes his most heroic day was actually his greatest failure, what he was feeling the day he received the Medal of Honor from President Obama, and his practical blueprint for bringing our divided country together. Notes: The Three-Phase Life Cycle - Dakota's framework for wisdom: "You have an obstacle you face. You have to get through that obstacle and become better from it. And then the third piece is you have to share how you got through that obstacle." Leadership vs. Responsibility - "Leaders are just people too. You can lead from anywhere in an organization... Leadership comes in many forms." True leadership means choosing where your loyalty lies - with the people you're responsible for or with protecting your own position. September 8th, 2009: Leadership Failure - Dakota frames his Medal of Honor actions as "an absolute story of leadership failure at its best" - multiple levels of leaders avoiding responsibility while he went against orders to save his teammates. The Loyalty Question - "Where does their loyalty lie? Is it in the people that trust them to lead them and to protect them? Or is it in the organization in order for themselves to keep getting promoted?" This fundamental choice defines every leader. Risk vs. Results - "Organizations and leaders today are so risk-averse that risk comes before results... You can't be successful, do hard things, and stay comfortable and be safe. In no world does that exist." Mental Health Reality Check - Dakota challenges current mental health approaches: "We're giving people no hope because we're trying to accommodate their emotions and not bring them back to reality and logic." He distinguishes between trauma that needs addressing and self-induced mental health issues through poor choices. Love as Choice, Not Emotion - "Love is not an emotion. Love is a choice... If you love me, you're going to always help me be the best version of me. That doesn't always feel good." Accountability and Fatherhood - As a father of two daughters: "I can't be anything that I wouldn't let anybody else be to them... You set the bar for what they're gonna accept and what they're not gonna accept." The Civil War Warning - "America doesn't need a Civil War. What we need is to vote, to lead, to speak up in schools, to teach our kids history, truth, kindness with strength, and how to disagree without violence." The Ambush - When his team walked into an ambush, promised support assets (air support, mortars, quick reaction force) weren't available due to rules of engagement restrictions. When Lieutenant Johnson called for artillery support, saying, "If you don't give me these rounds right now, we're going to die," the response was "Try your best." The Decision to Act - Dakota requested permission to help multiple times and was denied each time. He finally went against orders with his driver, Staff Sergeant Rodriguez Chavez, making four or five trips into the valley over six hours to evacuate wounded and recover bodies. The Human Cost - Dakota describes the helplessness of watching Afghan soldiers get "mowed down" while running toward his vehicle for rescue. He performed basic life-saving measures, loaded wounded in trucks with the dead on the bottom and living on top for triage priority, and ultimately recovered some of his fallen teammates. The Immediate Aftermath - Dakota put his teammates in body bags, flew them home, then immediately returned to cleaning his truck and helping Afghan soldiers with their dead. He went back to his base alone - the only survivor of his four-man team. Mental Health Crisis - Dakota developed a destructive cycle: daily drinking (depressant), massive caffeine intake to compensate, creating anxiety and amplifying trauma. He was surrounded by people who only wanted to discuss trauma and war stories, preventing healing. Suicide Attempt - Dakota reached a breaking point where he held a gun to his head, but it wasn't loaded. This became his turning point - he made a commitment to either "rack it back and go ahead and do it, or go out and find a way to get through this and start living a life worthy of their sacrifices." The Path Forward - Recovery came through accountability rather than accommodation. Dakota emphasizes that while trauma needed addressing, he was "amplifying and feeding the problem, not the solution" through his choices. Real vs. Perceived Heroism - Dakota challenges the hero narrative: "I am an example of the potential that's in every human being... If they believe in a cause that's bigger than themselves, and they love people so much that they're willing to do whatever it takes to stop the suffering." Daily Character Building - "You don't just wake up and do the hard thing. It starts every day. Do you get up when you say you're gonna get up? Do you do what you say?" The Medal of Honor action was simply "upholding my end of the deal to my teammates and to my country." Being a Great Dad - Dakota sets an extremely high bar as a dad: "I believe that if your daughters start dating shitty and weak men, it's because you are a shitty and weak man." He sees fatherhood as the ultimate accountability. Unity through Truth - His current focus: "I just want to bring people together... I wanna put hope back in the world through truth." He believes in finding common ground with anyone through genuine connection and curiosity. Education vs. Knowledge - Dakota distinguishes between theoretical education and practical knowledge: "There's a difference between education and knowledge... those who can't do, they teach. We need more that have done teaching." The Power of Love - His core philosophy centers on love as action, not emotion: "Love is limitless... there's no expiration date" compared to hate and negativity, which "there's an expiration date on." Practical Application Leadership Loyalty Test - Before making decisions, ask where your primary loyalty lies: with those you lead or with your own advancement Risk-Taking Framework - Understand that meaningful results require accepting risk and discomfort Mental Health Approach - Address trauma while taking responsibility for choices that amplify problems Daily Character Development - Build integrity through small daily commitments before facing major challenges Connection Over Division - Seek common ground through curiosity and questions rather than attacking opposing viewpoints

This week we cover topics from watching Hospital Bills and how to save money to news of Wilderness survival and new policy, record-breaking hunts to mythbusting jellyfish. Real-life stories that could save your life or keep money in your wallet. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! How to Save Money on Hospital and Insurance Bills — Even When You're Fully Covered When you're diagnosed with a serious illness like cancer, the last thing you want to worry about is money. But between insurance coverage, hospital billing departments, and ongoing treatments, out-of-pocket costs can spiral — even when you're fully insured. In 2021, I was diagnosed with cancer. I underwent 12 rounds of chemotherapy and 8 weeks of daily radiation. While my insurance was a blessing, I quickly discovered that being covered doesn't mean you're not vulnerable to costly billing mistakes — ones that could cost you thousands if you're not paying attention. Why You Must Compare Your EOB With Hospital Bills — Line by Line One of the most important lessons I learned: Always compare your Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from your insurance provider to the bill from your hospital or healthcare provider. Here's what happened to me: Even after I had hit my out-of-pocket deductible, I noticed monthly hospital charges averaging around $900 in my online billing portal. After comparing the EOB to the hospital bills, I saw that some treatments weren't even being submitted to my insurance company. Instead, I was being billed directly — as if I had no coverage at all. I called my insurance company, who confirmed they hadn't received claims for those charges. Then I contacted the hospital's billing department and was told each time that it was a “mistake,” and they would resubmit. Had I not caught this, I could have paid over $10,000 in wrongful charges — with little chance of a refund later. Pro Tip: Don't Automatically Pay Medical Bills Without Verifying It's tempting to just pay the bill and be done with it — especially when you're overwhelmed and just trying to get through treatments. But trust your gut. Instead: Wait to receive your EOB before paying anything. Compare dates, services, and costs between the EOB and your hospital bill. Call your insurance company if anything doesn't line up. Then, contact your healthcare provider's billing department and request that charges be re-submitted if needed. Always Ask: "Has This Been Submitted to My Insurance?" Make it your mantra when speaking to any healthcare billing department: “Has this claim been submitted to my insurance company?” If they say no or “it was a mistake,” ask for proof of submission and a timeline. It can take weeks or even months for a corrected bill to show up — so document every call and keep all emails or confirmations. Human Error and AI Mistakes Are More Common Than You Think In today's digital world, hospitals and insurers often rely on automated systems for billing. But that doesn't mean the process is error-free. In fact, it may be worse. You might encounter: Incorrect coding of procedures Claims not submitted at all Duplicate billing Coverage miscalculations That's why your personal oversight is essential — especially when you're dealing with ongoing care. How to Protect Yourself from Costly Healthcare Billing Mistakes Here's a quick checklist to help you save money and protect your finances during a medical journey: Know your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum Track every treatment and procedure in a personal log Check your EOBs monthly and match them with bills Dispute errors right away — don't wait Keep records of every call and conversation Ask for itemized bills from providers Request written confirmation of any billing correction Final Thoughts: Be Your Own Advocate — It Could Save You Thousands Between AI systems, human error, and overloaded billing departments, even those with full insurance coverage can fall into financial traps. The stress of calling weekly to fix these issues took a toll, but in the end, it saved me thousands of dollars. The bottom line? Be proactive. Be persistent. And never assume a bill is correct just because it looks official. If you're navigating medical bills or complex treatments, you're not alone. If I hadn't spoken up, I would have unknowingly overpaid by thousands. Don't be afraid to double-check, question, and challenge what doesn't look right. Your health matters — and so does your wallet. 14-Year-Old Girl Makes Pennsylvania Hunting History with Record Bull Elk We've got a record-breaking hunting story that's as heartwarming as it is impressive. According to Outdoor Life, fourteen-year-old Samantha Bartlett just became the youngest hunter ever to tag a bull elk in Pennsylvania — and she did it with a single, well-placed shot from her crossbow! It all happened in the early morning hours of September 16, deep in the mountains of north-central PA. Samantha and her dad, Noel, had already spent three long days hiking and hunting, holding out for the right bull. On the fourth day, it finally came together. After hearing two bulls fighting at dawn, Samantha and her guide crept through tall grass and waited. With a few cow calls, a massive bull came trotting in. At 40 yards, Samantha took the shot — and nailed it. The 6x7 bull elk went down within 100 yards, and the rest is history. The animal was estimated at 800 pounds, and the rack green-scored at 310 inches. Getting the bull out? That was a whole different story. The team dragged it downhill for four hours — no vehicles allowed — proving once again that the hunt doesn't end with the shot. Her bull was officially checked at a game station in Benezette, where state officials confirmed Samantha's place in the record books. This big moment was made possible by a lucky draw for a limited bull elk tag — and by a new law allowing Sunday hunting in Pennsylvania for the first time, giving young hunters like Samantha more opportunities. What's next for her? She's got her sights set on the “Pennsylvania Quad Trophy” — elk, black bear, turkey, and deer — all with a crossbow. Talk about ambitious! Moral of the story? Don't underestimate a determined young hunter and her crossbow.

On Monday, Sept. 22, the man became separated from his group near the Three Sisters Trailhead in the Rawah Wilderness. The last anyone heard from him was a text saying he was lost, just before 3:30 p.m. His phone later went dark, and with winter weather rolling in, it was too dangerous for search teams to head out that night. By the next day, over 20 agencies — including Search and Rescue teams, deputies, and wildlife officials — launched a full-scale search in snowy, cold, and windy conditions. Air support was grounded, and rescuers battled through the backcountry on foot. Despite the brutal storm and tough terrain, the search effort continued into a second day. Then, on the afternoon of Wednesday, Sept. 24, hope came from above: the hunter was able to place several 911 calls, helping rescuers pinpoint his location. At around 1 p.m., air support spotted him — alive and in good health. So how did he make it? The hunter credited his survival to his military training, staying calm, building a fire, and using his sleeping bag and layers to stay warm. A big thanks goes out to Jackson and Grand County responders, Colorado Parks and Wildlife, search dog teams, and all others who helped pull off this dramatic rescue. Moral of the story? Being prepared can make all the difference — especially when Mother Nature has other plans.

Representative Harriet Hageman has introduced the Grizzly Bear State Management Act of 2025, which supporters say reflects decades of conservation success. Grizzly numbers in the region have rebounded from just a few hundred in the 1970s to nearly 1,000 today, meeting recovery targets set back in 1993. Advocates argue it's time to return management to the states, allowing for more flexible and responsive action on local issues — especially as livestock conflicts rise. Last year, grizzlies killed 91 cattle in Wyoming, the highest number on record. The bill also aims to cut through federal red tape, reinstating a Trump-era delisting rule and blocking future legal challenges that have stalled similar efforts. Supporters say it will free up resources at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and help speed up energy development and wildlife responses. While environmental groups warn that grizzlies still face genetic and habitat threats, Wyoming leaders say the bear has recovered — and state wildlife agencies are ready to manage them responsibly. Wyoming's stance? Grizzlies have recovered. It's time to let states take the reins.

These jellyfish are no joke: they can weigh up to 50 pounds and their tentacles can stretch as long as 70 feet. From Port Aransas to Corpus Christi, beachgoers are spotting more of them than ever before. Marine biologist Jace Tunnell from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi says it's unlike anything he's seen in years of beachcombing. “I grew up on the beach and had never seen one until this year,” he said. The “pink meanie” was only officially recognized in 2011 and is known for its cotton candy color and its appetite for other jellyfish — especially moon jellies, which are currently blooming in Gulf waters. What to Do If You Get Stung While the sting isn't life-threatening, it can hurt — lasting about 10 minutes with red marks that stay for a couple of days. Here's how to treat it: Get out of the water immediately. Remove tentacles carefully using gloves or a tool — don't use bare hands. Rinse the sting with seawater, not freshwater. Pour vinegar over the sting to neutralize any remaining stinging cells. Apply hot (not scalding) water for 20 minutes to ease the pain. Avoid rubbing the area, and watch for any signs of allergic reaction. Experts say these jellyfish likely won't stick around — once cooler weather hits, both moon jellies and pink meanies are expected to disappear from Texas shores.

What do youth sports reveal about us as dads? More than we might want to admit. In this conversation with Townsend Church Pastor and Upward Sports League Director Tim Sparrow, Kent and Lawson dig into the highs and lows of parenting on the sidelines. From yellow cards to halftime prayers, Tim shares how sports can be more than competition—they can be a training ground for humility, discipleship, and Christ-like leadership. We touch on topics like: Why kids benefit when dads show up the right way How to handle your own failures and model repentance The connection between pride, parenting, and competition Just a tease of some of Tim's wisdom: "When I feel ill-equipped because of my past experiences, I thank God for those experiences because that was him equipping me to be in the position that I'm in so that I can help people that are going through the same things." There's more where that come from in today's conversation with Tim. If you've ever lost your cool at a game or wondered how to keep Jesus at the center of all the busyness, this episode will encourage and challenge you to be a Father On Purpose.

S.O.S. (Stories of Service) - Ordinary people who do extraordinary work
Send us a textWhat do you do when the institution you served closes ranks—and you're left to fight alone? We sit down with Marine veteran and former Nevada National Guard member Andy Lindstrom to unpack a hard, complicated story: years of reporting alleged misconduct, a firing justified as “not a good fit,” and a hearing that arrived nearly three years late. From claims of fraternization and sexual harassment to allegations of wage suppression and payroll fraud on the state side, Andy walks through the paper trail, the “inquiry” that wasn't called an investigation, and why he believes the system is designed to delay until witnesses disappear and the public moves on.The conversation gets specific. Andy alleges unlawful CJIS access, the wiping of his personal device after termination, and coordinated efforts to block subpoenas and keep key witnesses off the stand. He explains why he chose not to testify in a forum he believed was structurally biased and how the decision letter praised his presentation while ruling that state misconduct wasn't proven—effectively sidelining the payroll issues he raised. We also explore the FOIA battles, the IG pathways that went quiet, and the venue fight for an impartial court, including questions of recusal and the optics of former military attorneys presiding over Guard-adjacent matters.This episode is about more than one case. It's about how self-policing fails without independent oversight, how selective enforcement corrodes trust, and how retaliation—legal, professional, and social—chills reporting. You'll hear the human cost too: a father determined to show his daughter that truth is worth defending. If you care about whistleblower protections, military accountability, and how state-federal hybrids handle misconduct, this is a detailed, unflinching listen.If this resonates, share the episode, leave a review, and subscribe so more people can find stories that test systems—and push them to do better.Support the showVisit my website: https://thehello.llc/THERESACARPENTERRead my writings on my blog: https://www.theresatapestries.com/Listen to other episodes on my podcast: https://storiesofservice.buzzsprout.comWatch episodes of my podcast:https://www.youtube.com/c/TheresaCarpenter76
Not many survival stories can rival the miracle that happened to Marine Lt. Col. William Henry Rankin in 1959. See for yourself: one bad day, this man nearly drowned -- falling from the sky! Um, are you saying that it sounds too paradoxical to be true? So, it was a high-altitude flight, and Rankin, together with his wingman were flying at the height of more than 47,000 ft. The only thing that could cause some trouble was a storm that was raging far beneath the planes, but now, it didn't present any threat. However, the pilots were supposed to pass through this storm on their way to the Marine air base in Beaufort, South Carolina... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

C dans l'air du 2 octobre 2025 - L'Europe au défi de la flotte fantôme russeLe pétrolier "Pushpa" a dû mettre son périple en pause. Parti de Russie le 18 septembre à destination de l'Inde, le navire de 244 mètres de long a été arraisonné lundi au large de Saint-Nazaire par des militaires français qui le soupçonnent d'appartenir à la flotte de navires fantômes russes. Hier, le parquet de Brest a annoncé l'ouverture d'une enquête pour "défaut de justification de la nationalité du navire" et "refus d'obtempérer" et le placement en garde à vue de deux membres de l'équipage. "Il y a eu des fautes très importantes qui ont été commises par cet équipage qui justifient que la procédure soit judiciarisée aujourd'hui", a déclaré Emmanuel Macron, en marge d'un sommet international à Copenhague. Les dirigeants européens y sont notamment réunis pour imaginer de nouvelles ripostes contre la Russie qui viole régulièrement leurs espaces aériens, comme la Pologne, la Roumanie ou l'Estonie. Le président français a cependant appelé à rester prudent sur les informations de la presse danoise, selon laquelle le Pushpa aurait pu servir de plateforme de lancement à des drones ayant perturbé le trafic aérien du pays fin septembre. Une chose est sûre, le navire, qui a changé à treize reprises de pavillons en trois ans selon Le Monde, a déjà été immobilisé à plusieurs reprises pour des activités "illégales". Et il n'est pas un cas isolé. Depuis 2023, plusieurs navires en provenance de Russie ont été impliqués dans des ruptures de câbles électriques ou l'endommagement de gazoducs.Pendant que les dirigeants européens se réunissent pour élaborer de nouvelles stratégies contre la Russie, l'armée de l'Otan se prépare au scénario du pire. Mi-mai, 3 000 militaires et de nombreux véhicules terrestres et aériens issus de neuf pays européens ont simulé un débarquement sur les côtes française dans le cadre d'exercices militaires baptisés Polaris 25. Selon le contre-amiral français Jean-Michel Martinet, il s'agit "de préparer la Marine nationale à être immédiatement engagée dans du combat de haute intensité avec tout ce que cela suppose dans le contexte actuel". Une équipe de C dans l'air a pu y participer.Si les responsables militaires ne nomment pas directement le responsable de leurs craintes, c'est bien la Russie qui est visée. Pour financer sa guerre en Ukraine, Vladimir Poutine a annoncé fin septembre une hausse de la TVA de 20 à 22% à partir de 2026, soit le niveau le plus élevé depuis le début de l'invasion russe. Selon les économistes, le Kremlin peine à assumer le coût du conflit. Alourdi par les dépenses militaires et les sanctions visant ses exportations de pétrole, le déficit russe atteint désormais 43 milliards d'euros, soit trois fois plus qu'en 2024. Les frappes ukrainiennes sur les raffineries russes n'ont rien arrangé à la situation tandis que les pays du G7 ont annoncé hier vouloir "accentuer la pression sur les exportations pétrolières de la Russie". Signe que l'économie russe ralentit, le gouvernement a annoncé abaisser ses prévisions de croissance pour 2026 de 2 à 1,3%.Que sait-on du pétrolier arraisonné au large des côtes françaises et suspecté d'appartenir à la flotte fantôme russe ? Comment les forces de l'Otan se préparent à l'hypothèse d'une guerre de haute intensité ? Les sanctions internationales contre l'économie russe peuvent-elles faire basculer le cours de la guerre en Ukraine ?LES EXPERTS :- Alain BAUER - Professeur de criminologie au CNAM responsable du Pôle Sécurité Défense Renseignement- Pierre HAROCHE - Maître de conférences en politique européenne et internationale à l'Université catholique de Lille- Marie JEGO - Journaliste - Le Monde, ancienne correspondante à Moscou- Alexandra SAVIANA - Journaliste - L'Express, auteur de Les scénarios noirs de l'armée française

Stigall can't stop laughing at the latest thing online making Democrats so mad. President Trump continues to troll Democrats mercilessliy despite their protests. US Senator Tommy Tuberville of Alabama joins the show to respond to the Senate vote last night effectively "shutting down" nonessential government services. He also offers his legendary football background in analyzing Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's epic speech to military brass on fitness standards, etc. Col. William Dunn (ret) author of "Gunfighters Rule!" weighs in with more specific perspective as a Marine when it comes to fitness standards and basic training. Plus, EV tax credits as well as California mandates for EV trucks have been scrapped as President Trump authorizes more spending on the development of coal mining. And Ohio becomes one of the latest states to welcome the embrace of utility companies taking control of your thermostat. Daniel Turner of Power the Future reacts. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Carey Chen is a world-traveled marine artist and lifelong fisherman who turned a passion for blue water into a career—painting billfish from memory and chasing giants with some of the best crews on earth. Born in Los Angeles to Jamaican parents, raised in Jamaica, and later based in Miami, Carey went from motorcycles and video stores to fishing tournaments across the Caribbean, licensing deals, and live painting at world-class events. In this conversation, we get into how a first sailfish on a kite lit the fuse, why sonar is changing offshore fishing (and why he thinks it'll soon be on every boat), what it's like to fish with the Bad Company program, and how a lifetime of travel turned into 3,000+ paintings “stuck in his head.” Some of the moments I found most meaningful in this conversation were: The first sailfish on a kite off Miami—and how one fish can change your life From fisherman to painter: leaving retail, painting live, and getting “discovered” at boat shows Fishing the world with Bad Company: Mag Bay marlin numbers that sound impossible until you see them The sonar debate: why new tech doesn't replace skill—but rewards crews who master it Big-fish mindset: chasing granders, tagging programs, and letting the big breeders go Seychelles, Cape Verde, Madeira: what “no-pressure” fisheries really feel like Growing up around legends—boxing promoters, Bob Marley, and the value of giving back through art Timestamps 00:00 Intro & who is Carey Chen 01:35 Jamaica → Miami → first sailfish on a kite 05:10 From fisherman to artist: the boat show breakthrough 10:42 Touring the Caribbean tournaments & live painting 15:28 Bad Company stories: Mag Bay marlin madness 21:40 Sonar, strategy, and the “is it cheating?” debate 28:05 Chasing granders: Africa, Cape Verde, Madeira 34:20 Seychelles & the magic of low-pressure fisheries 40:55 Flats talk: triggers, bumpheads, bonefish, Andros 47:10 Art from memory: anatomy, light, and getting it right 52:25 Business today: licensing, dropship, 3,000+ pieces 57:30 Growing up around champions & giving back 1:02:10 Final thoughts on passion → profession
Anthony Lopez grew up in the South Bronx, where street life was everywhere. His mom pushed him to join the U.S. Marines to escape the cycle — and he went on to serve in Iraq.

Starting fresh out of high school, Adrian quickly took to the marine industry, completing Tech School and Mercury Marine school and landed his first job at Boatland in San Diego County in California. Then joined the team at DCB Performance Boats in El Cajon, where he earned the nickname "AJ", which are not initials for his name and not a flattering moniker.

Not one to mince words, "AJ" recalls many of his stories over the years and ultimately how he's ended up where he is, endlessly talented and widely respected in the industry. This is Adrian Barrett.

For Hotel Costiera, Jesse Williams was drawn to making "something that is global.” The new Prime Video series stars Williams as Daniel De Luca, a former Marine who returns home to Italy to work at a hotel, only to find himself tasked with finding the missing daughter of the hotel's owner. While he has “no complaints” filming in Positano paradise, “I tried to stay relatively disciplined, but I ate a lot of pasta and bread,” Williams told Newsweek's H. Alan Scott. Of the character, he related to his duality. "I don't really say I'm half anything," he notes. "That has to have found itself stewing in something Daniel DeLuca is dealing with." And this series represents a new phase for Williams, taking creative control as a producer. "It certainly feels good... to bet on you in the same way you're trying to bet on yourself.” After leaving his iconic role on Grey's Anatomy, his first move was a deliberate challenge, first going to Broadway and now this, raising the stakes even further by creating an original show. “It's not based on IP or something else. Like it's really trying to forge something new in a space.” But at the end of the day, it's all about the process. "I love the collaboration that exists in our business."

President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth spoke to nearly the entire senior officer corps of the military. It was an unprecedented gathering at a Marine base south of Washington. Hegseth announced new directives, and the president laid out a vision to use the military not against overseas enemies, but for threats he sees here at home.

On Sunday, an attacker drove a pickup truck into a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) chapel in Grand Blanc, Michigan, subsequently opening fire on churchgoers and setting the building on fire. At least four people were killed and eight others wounded, and the suspect was killed by law enforcement responding to the scene. Grand Blanc police confirmedMonday afternoon that all churchgoers had been accounted for, and it does not expect to find more victims. Officials have not identified a possible motive for the attack, but local reports and interviews have suggested that the suspect — a 40-year-old former Marine — harbored ill will toward the Church. The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating the event as an act of targeted violence.

Aaron's Alley Going Ballistic When "Violence Interrupters" Turn into Carjackers: The Real Crime Stories A Chicago violence interrupter has been sentenced to 22 years for his involvement in carjackings, raising eyebrows about the effectiveness of such programs. This incident could further fuel skepticism among gun advocates regarding the strategies employed to curb violence, as it highlights a failure in the very initiatives intended to protect communities. When Legal Guns Cause Panic: A Bolt Action Breakdown A sniper in Dallas used a legally obtained bolt action rifle for the incident, raising questions about gun laws and the effectiveness of current regulations on responsible gun ownership. This event has reinvigorated debates within the gun community regarding the implications of legal firearm possession and the focus on law-abiding citizens versus criminals. "Another Day, Another Gun-Free Zone Tragedy" A tragic church shooting resulted in four fatalities, two from gunfire. The incident raises concerns within the gun community as advocates may face renewed calls for stricter regulations, despite the ongoing debates surrounding Second Amendment rights. "From Hero to Zero: When Gun Control Advocates Rewrite History" A U.S. Marine veteran has been identified as the alleged shooter and arsonist in a Michigan church incident, causing concern around the narrative that veterans are a threat. This event may reinforce the ongoing debate about gun rights and could provoke further attempts by gun control advocates to impose restrictions, even as it highlights the need for a nuanced discussion about mental health and violence rather than vilifying responsible gun ownership. Media Hysteria: CNN's Inflated Mass Shooting Count Hits 324 CNN's report of "324 mass shootings" in 2025 may be an attempt to amplify fears around gun violence, but such claims often face scrutiny for accuracy. This portrayal likely fuels ongoing debates in the gun community regarding the interpretation and misuse of statistics in gun control discussion...
In this episode of Healthy Waves by Healthy Mind By Avik™, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with David Hunter, founder of Global Phytoplankton Alliance, to uncover the untapped potential of marine phytoplankton for human health, brain function, and sustainability. David shares how a microscopic ocean plant, often invisible to the naked eye, may hold the foundation for human vitality—supporting cellular repair, energy, and even mental clarity. With nearly 20 years of experience, he discusses the surprising history of phytoplankton in nutrition, how it contributes to Earth's oxygen supply, and why it might reshape the way we think about supplements, immunity, and disease prevention. Whether you're curious about brain health, natural nutrition, or the future of sustainable wellness, this conversation offers insights you won't want to miss. About the Guest : David Hunter is the founder of Global Phytoplankton Alliance. Nearly two decades ago, he witnessed phytoplankton transform a life when nothing else worked. Since then, he has dedicated himself to educating the world on how these microscopic organisms—responsible for much of Earth's oxygen—could be the missing link in human health, foundational nutrition, and planetary sustainability. Key Takeaways: Medical Disclaimer : The content in this episode and its accompanying show notes is for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition, nutrition, or supplementation—including marine phytoplankton or any nutraceuticals. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you heard in this episode. Statements discussed here (including any potential benefits of phytoplankton) have not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), European Medicines Agency (EMA), or any other regulatory authority. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Individual results may vary. If you are pregnant, nursing, have a medical condition, or are taking prescription or over-the-counter medications, consult your healthcare professional before using any supplement. Discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional if you experience any adverse reaction. In case of a medical emergency, call your local emergency number immediately. All opinions expressed by the guest are their own and do not represent the views of the host or Healthy Mind By Avik™. Phytoplankton is the original source of nutrition, containing essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in their purest form. Marine phytoplankton provides 60–75% of the oxygen we breathe, making it critical for planetary and human health. Unlike synthetic supplements, phytoplankton nutrients bypass digestion and may feed directly into human cells. Stories of improved energy, mental clarity, reduced migraines, and other benefits highlight its potential role in foundational wellness. Growing phytoplankton on land in clean, filtered seawater avoids ocean depletion and provides a sustainable nutrient source. Its potential impact could disrupt the supplement industry and support a healthier, more resilient global population. Preventive health—focusing on nourishment before illness—can reduce dependency on reactionary treatments. The future of wellness may be less about "bigger solutions" and more about microscopic foundations.
