Podcasts about Marines

This episode traces the Marine Corps' transformation from the late 1800s into the modern force recognized today. It begins with the creation of Parris Island and the evolution of Marine training, from tents and marshland to a world-class recruit depot tested by war, tragedy, and reform. The story moves through Panama, where Marines became America's instrument of order, and into the age of steel ships and global ambition. It follows their battles in Cuba, the Philippines, and across Central America during the Banana Wars, where the Corps learned the lessons of small wars, air-ground coordination, and constabulary duty. Figures like Charles Heywood, John A. Lejeune, and Smedley Butler emerge as the architects of a professional, expeditionary force. By the time the last Marines left Nicaragua in 1933, the Corps had been reshaped, no longer a naval guard but a global instrument of American power, forged in hardship and defined by purpose.

This episode follows the Marines from secret missions in Mexico to Civil War battlefields. We begin with Lieutenant Archibald Gillespie's covert journey that helped ignite the conquest of California and trace how that campaign laid the foundation for the Corps' presence on the Pacific coast and the birth of Camp Pendleton. 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. Both the Union and Confederate Marines fight with the same discipline they once shared, even as their causes diverge.  Support the Series Listen ad-free and a week early on historyofthemarinecorps.supercast.com Donate directly at historyofthemarinecorps.com Try a free 30-day Audible trial at audible.com/marinehistory Social Media Instagram - @historyofthemarines Facebook - @marinehistory Twitter - @marinehistory

This week, I sit down with Anthony “Staz” Stazicker, former Royal Marine and Special Forces operator turned entrepreneur and co-founder of ThruDark, one of the UK's fastest-growing technical outerwear brands.After more than a decade in the military, Staz left behind the structure, purpose, and intensity of Special Forces life to start from scratch. What began as an idea between two former Marines has become a global brand built on authenticity, resilience, and relentless standards.In this bite-sized episode, Staz shares how he applied the lessons from combat to business — how to stay disciplined when motivation fades, why routine beats inspiration, and what it really means to take a leap of faith.If you've ever found yourself stuck, overthinking, or struggling to start, this is the 10-minute reset you need.Key Takeaways:Discipline Builds Momentum: Success rarely comes from motivation. It comes from showing up every day and sticking to the plan.Break Challenges into Small Wins: Whether in the military or in business, progress comes from breaking goals down into manageable steps.Plan, Prepare, Execute: Treat your business like a mission. Preparation and structure give you clarity when things get tough.Accountability Over Excuses: Structure your day with intention. The smallest habits compound into lasting results.

Ivana Stradner warns that the UN cybercrime treaty, drafted by Russia and supported by China, undermines global human rights and free speech. She argues the treaty is mere "window dressing" enabling authoritarian regimes to pursue digital sovereignty—like Russia's "fake news" laws or China's "golden shield" project—to censor dissent. Stradner suggests that allowing Russia and China to regulate cyberspace is comparable to trusting the arsonist to put out the fire, urging the United States not to ratify the treaty. 1245-100 AM The Modern Marine Corps: MEUs, Amphibious Ship Shortages, and the Role in East Asia. Colonel Grant Newsham discusses the Marine Corps, celebrating its 250th birthday and historic legacy at Belleau Wood. Newsham describes the Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) as a flexible force of about 2,000 Marines aboard amphibious ships, capable of missions from humanitarian aid to combat. A critical challenge is the Navy's low prioritization of amphibious ships, leading to a deployment shortage. In East Asia, Marines are expected to seize key terrain and use long-range precision weapons to control maritime territory, though prioritizing missile units has reduced overall mission versatility.

One of the world's most enduring organizations, the United States Marine Corps, celebrates its 250th birthday on November 10th, 2025. The Marines have deep, rich tradition and, remarkably, the Marine Corps has been able to innovate while reinventing itself over the course of its history. In this interview, Col. Ben Davenport (Ret.) discusses what makes the Marine Corps unique. He shares why he believes the Marine Corps is so resilient and has maintained its relevance throughout its history. Ben also discusses what leaders in business can learn from the Marine Corps culture, discipline, and approach to leading through uncertainty.

This episode follows the Corps' revival in 1798 and its first tests in battle, from the Quasi-War with France to the campaign against the Barbary pirates and the daring raid to burn the captured frigate Philadelphia. It explores how Commandant William Ward Burrows shaped the Corps' discipline and structure, how the Marine Band became "The President's Own," and how Lieutenant Presley O'Bannon led the first Marines across the desert to Derne. We end with the start of the War of 1812, when Marines proved their courage from the decks of Old Ironsides to the shores of Canada, securing their place as a permanent part of the nation's defense.   Support the Series Listen ad-free and a week early on historyofthemarinecorps.supercast.com Donate directly at historyofthemarinecorps.com Try a free 30-day Audible trial at audible.com/marinehistory Social Media Instagram - @historyofthemarines Facebook - @marinehistory Twitter - @marinehistory

CannCon, JB White, and Cam Cooksey are back with an uproarious Marine Corps birthday episode of Y Chromes, celebrating 250 years of Semper Fi spirit and plenty of friendly trash talk. The guys kick things off with NFL highlights, laughter at Alpha's missing streak after his team's losses, and a recap of the now-legendary Badlands beach football game at GART Cocoa Beach. Between fantasy football banter and talk of bruised egos, they dive into Trump's unforgettable NFL broadcast moment and a wild discussion on gender roles, relationships, and cultural traditions. From debates about feminism and serving your man's plate to military humor, death metal, and Miss Chile's shocking performance, no topic is off-limits. The crew wraps up with pure chaos, laughter, and a plug for Soft Disclosure, officially “Black man approved.”

In this episode, Chase Tobin celebrates the 250th birthday of the United States Marine Corps and reflects on the core values of honor, courage, and commitment. He emphasizes how these principles not only define a Marine but also serve as a guide for all men seeking to live a life of purpose. The conversation explores the significance of each value, their interconnection, and the legacy they create in both military and civilian life. Chase calls for a renewed commitment to these ideals in a world that often overlooks them, urging listeners to embody these virtues in their daily lives.Takeaways-The Marine Corps celebrates 250 years of tradition and excellence.-Honor, courage, and commitment are essential values for Marines and all men.-Honor is the foundation of character and integrity.-Courage is the ability to confront fear and adversity.-Commitment is the relentless pursuit of excellence and loyalty.-These values are interwoven and create a complete man.-A Marine's legacy is defined by his actions and values.-Living with honor, courage, and commitment requires sacrifice and discipline.-The world needs men who embody these virtues.-A true Marine's mission continues beyond military service.Chapters00:00 Celebrating the Marine Corps 250th Birthday01:42 The Core Values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment04:32 Understanding Honor: The Foundation of Character06:51 Courage: The Fire in the Soul10:24 Commitment: The Enduring Anchor12:29 The Legacy of Honor, Courage, and CommitmentSUBSCRIBE TO THE NEW PODCAST CHANNEL HERE: https://www.youtube.com/@3PillarsPodcast God bless you all.

Author and RCP contributor John J. Waters joins Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon to discuss Veterans Day, 2025 and the 250th anniversary of the founding of the U.S. Marine Corp. They also talk about last night's appearance by President Donald Trump on the Laura Ingraham Show on Fox News, where he discussed what he sees as American voters' misperceptions of the economy. Also, they look at Trump's proposal to introduce a 50-year mortgage, and what it would mean for home ownership in America. Then, they discuss the fight within the Democratic Party over ending the Democratic filibuster in the Senate and increasing calls from progressives for Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to step aside. Also, while Zohran Mamdani's victory in the New York mayor's race has gained the most attention , other candidates associated with the Democratic Socialists of America are faring well in local elections across the country.

On Purplish, our focus is usually on exploring the politics of the moment. But for Veterans Day, we're offering something different -- a chance to experience a defining moment in World War II from one of the last remaining veterans to live through it.The battle of Iwo Jima was one of the toughest in Marine Corps history. Nearly 7,000 Marines lost their lives taking the volcanic island from its Japanese defenders.80 years on, few remain who served in that grueling conflict. One of them is Jim Blane of Denver.It took Blane decades after the war ended to begin to talk about his time in combat. But as he prepares to celebrate his 101st birthday this month – just as the U.S. Marine Corps marks its 250th anniversary – the veteran says when it comes to the war and Iwo Jima, he's now wide open. Blane recently shared his story with CPR's Bente Birkeland.Purplish is a production of member-supported Colorado Public Radio and the Colorado Capitol News Alliance.

Born in a Philadelphia tavern at the height of the Revolution, the Marine Corps began as America's first seaborne fighting force. This episode traces that origin. Out of the smoke and uncertainty of rebellion, Samuel Nicholas gathered the first Marines from the city's streets. They were craftsmen, sailors, and laborers who became the sharp edge of a new nation. They launched their first assault in the Bahamas, fought beside Washington on the Delaware, and held fast through both triumph and disaster. From frozen rivers at Trenton to burning ships at Penobscot, Chapter 1 follows the Continental Marines. They were poorly equipped and often outnumbered, but they fought across every front of the Revolution and forged the traits that would define the Corps.   Support the Series Listen ad-free and a week early on historyofthemarinecorps.supercast.com Donate directly at historyofthemarinecorps.com Try a free 30-day Audible trial at audible.com/marinehistory Social Media Instagram - @historyofthemarines Facebook - @marinehistory Twitter - @marinehistory

In this special compilation of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman brings together two powerhouse conversations that define what it means to live with purpose, resilience, and unrelenting drive.First, Bruce Cardenas takes us through his extraordinary path — from the Marines and LAPD to becoming the Chief Communications Officer at Quest Nutrition, and now a driving force behind brands like Legendary Foods. Bruce shares how his discipline, attention to detail, and relentless commitment to service opened doors he never expected. But beyond his professional success, Bruce's story is about people — the power of building authentic relationships, leading with gratitude, and showing up for others without expectation. His journey reminds us that fulfillment doesn't come from chasing titles but from finding ways to contribute and lift others along the way.Then, Jason Redman, a decorated Navy SEAL, joins Ben to share his story of survival, leadership, and the “Overcome Mindset” that turned one of life's darkest moments into his greatest source of strength. After being severely wounded in combat, Jason refused to be defined by his injuries. Instead, he built a new mission: helping others rise through their own ambushes — the unexpected challenges that test our purpose and perseverance. His story is not just about war; it's about the fight we all face in life, and the power of preparation, awareness, and relentless belief in your mission.Together, these conversations capture the essence of The Burn — the inner fire that pushes YOU to serve, to overcome, and to keep showing up when life demands your very best.************************************Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/KOBRaWl5P8UListen on all platforms: https://www.theburnpodcast.com************************************Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD:  https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************ Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a message Order my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewman Connect with me everywhere else: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfight Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFight Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

This might be one of the wildest Marine Corps stories we've ever had on the show. Retired Marine First Sergeant Randall Parkes sat down with Urban Valor to share some of the funniest, most unbelievable, and downright fcked up* moments from his 20 years in the U.S. Marine Corps. From barracks inspections gone wrong, to combat deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, to a real-life rescue that helped spark the Abraham Accords — this episode has everything.Randall gets brutally honest about what it's like to lead Marines, deal with chaos as a First Sergeant, and balance discipline with dark military humor. He shares raw, hilarious, and emotional moments from his time in recon, MARSOC, boot camp, and even his post-military life — from real estate success to landing a job at Anduril.

Many leaders still believe emotions don't belong in business. That limiting belief creates workplaces where employees stay quiet when problems appear, avoid taking ownership for customer outcomes, and follow directions even when they see flaws that will affect customers. Fear is data. It signals when people feel unprepared, unsupported, or uncertain about priorities. When leaders ignore those signals, communication erodes, decision quality declines, and customers experience preventable mistakes and service failures. In this episode of Doing CX Right®, Stacy Sherman talks with Kristen Kavanaugh, a former U.S. Marine Corps officer and Tesla culture executive, about how courageous leadership turns fear into insight and action. Kristen shares what she learned from leading Marines in high-stakes missions and from developing leaders inside Tesla's fast-moving production environment. She explains how confronting fear directly, whether in military operations or corporate transformation, builds discipline, transparency, and faster, more confident decisions that protect both employees and customers. From listening to this episode, you will learn how to: Identify behaviors that show fear is influencing team performance Use emotional data to uncover leadership and operational risks before they reach customers Practice courageous leadership that encourages honesty and customer accountability Replace avoidance with structured communication that drives faster resolution Apply proven methods from Tesla and the military to enhance results under pressure Listen now to hear why emotions are not a side effect of business; they are the business and shapes every decision, every interaction, and every outcome. As Stacy Sherman says: "Emotions are the experience, and matters FAR more than you think.™" Learn more at DoingCXRight.com. Book time with Stacy through this link.

  Sinking boats and what's in the water below. Also, the Marines turn 250! Holly tells us some of the fun facts of the day! 

The show started with the announcement that democrats are folding and there seems to be a light at the end of the shutdown tunnel. Then the Circus was reminded that today was the Marine's 250th birthday and how dare we not open the show with that information, so for the rest of the show we kept wishing Happy Birthday to our brave United State Marines. Did you feel something was off with last week's elections, especially in New Jersey? Before you tell us to take our tinfoil hat off, we speak to Maricopa County recorder Justin Heap about found ballots from the last election. Plus, Trump at the game, liberal white women, Minnesota mayor, Germany, and Minnesota mayor panders...Happy Birthday Marines!

Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar salutes all the veterans who served in the United States Armed Forces. Thank you for your service and sacrifices.  It is a pleasure to welcome Yeremi Hykel to the podcast! A veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps, Yeremi first appeared on Reality TV on The Amazing Race 35, which aired in 2023. He partnered with his brother, Navy veteran Liam, who had been estranged for years.  The first leg saw the duo start racing from the Hollywood sign and finish in Thailand, where they placed eighth out of 13.  The duo was nearly eliminated in Vietnam, but fortunately, it was a non-elimination leg. Sadly, Yeremi and Liam were sent home after the Race took them to India.  Throughout the competition, Yeremi completed two roadblocks, while his brother completed three challenges.  Two years later, Yeremi headed to The Challenge to compete on the long-running Reality TV competition's forty-first season, Vets vs. New Threats. Yeremi made a name for himself when he completed the opening challenge – climbing the mountain to get to the Challenge House. Throughout the season, Yeremi showcased his leadership abilities and became one of the New Threats' strongest leaders in the house. He won both the “Cyclone” daily challenge with fellow New Threat Sydney Segal and the “Running Man” daily challenge with partner Aviv Bruno. He also competed in the “Pull It Together” elimination challenge against two-time Challenge champion Jonna Mannion and New Threat Gabe Wai, and won. When Yeremi is not competing, he is a model signed with the Block Agency, a fierce competitor in various fitness competitions, and a world traveler.  On this Veterans' Day edition of the Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Yeremi Hykel shared his U.S. Marine Corps journey, why he and Liam were constantly near the bottom of the pack on The Amazing Race, and took us behind the moves during the first weeks of The Challenge 41: Vets vs. New Threats.

Newt talks with Michael Pack about his PBS documentary, "The Last 600 Meters," which focuses on the two deadliest battles of the Iraq War in 2004: the Battle of Najaf and the Battle of Fallujah. The film presents these battles through the perspectives of those who fought, without political commentary. It highlights the experiences of Marines and soldiers, emphasizing their courage and the challenges of urban warfare. The documentary aims to honor the heroism of veterans, particularly in light of Veterans Day and the Marine Corps' 250th anniversary. Despite initial resistance from PBS due to perceived pro-military content, the film is now recognized for its authentic portrayal of ground combat. Their conversation also touches on the broader implications of storytelling in documentaries and the importance of preserving veterans' stories for future generations. “The Last 600 Meters: The Battles of Najaf and Fallujah,” premieres on PBS on Monday, November 10th at 10pm/9c.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
