Fatherhood is discussed. Damo asks how close to the ground CNP is and shouts out MyNavyHr again. YN1 highlights the joys of working for CNP. Damon remembers the time he got some book recommendations from FLTCM Terrell. Internet culture is getting out of hand. Damon opens up about his experience checking into a new ship. Did Damon deserve the turnover that he received? We're still not over J. Cole bowing out of the “Battle of the Big Three.” Damo reads some listener-submitted “Do Betters.” Is Command Indoc necessary? I command PT burned out? Damo reveal that he was recently dealing with some health issues and what he's learned. Shaving techniques are discussed.

Damon, Damo, and Tish start this episode joined by the Navy Personnel Command Force Master Chief, FORCM (SW/AW) William P. Houlihan. They open the conversation addressing NAVADMIN 006/24, Policy For the Assignment of Pregnant Sailors and Sailors Who Experience Perinatal Loss. FORCM discusses the feedback that was received after the release of the NAVADMIN and what's been being done to address some of the questions that were raised. Damo asks FORCM if there's a disconnect between the “Big Navy's” incentives and the deckplate level execution. What's the scoop on the Senior Enlisted Marketplace? Why was it created what does the future of the marketplace look like? When it comes to the graded criteria, who takes precedence? When this rolls down to Chief Selection, how will this impact the CPO Initiation Season? MCPON recently spoke at the White House regarding standards of living for our Sailors, Damo asks FORCM about something that came up in that testimony. Will the Navy advancement exam ever go away?  Where there ever any challenges as a leader in the Mass Communications rating. As the Navy evolves, so does technology. Are our leaders evolving with our technology? FORCM provides advice to anyone going up for a selection board this year.  FORCM answers a few personal questions and gives his take on Taylor Swift at NFL games. After FORCM leaves, the trio tackles the top of needing a High School Diploma or GED to join the military. Damo has a hot take. How cool would it be if every Sailor (including E-3 and below) received BAH? Another Commanding Officer was relieved of her duties due to a loss of confidence.

Welp, Football is back! It's definitely an exciting time of the year for Damon. Another Disciplinary Review Board (DRB) to start of the episode. What do you think is the best command coin?Have you ever wondered what's it's like to stand Resident Advisor (RA) watch in the barracks? What does it mean to let “power go to your head” in an organization as structured as the Navy? The term “micromanagement” is discussed. An update on a NAVADMIN that was released and discussed last week. Damo shares his “profound” story. How's life treating you on that Aircraft Carrier? “Day After Duty” is discussed. Do you prefer “IET” or the normal duty section? Is the era of remote work coming to an end? Who cooks better - People from up north or people from the south? This initiates an age old conversation about who makes the best burger. Two US Navy Sailors were arrested for allegedly spying for China. Is battlestations supposed to be a secret? Damon discusses the woes of aging and trying to stay fit. Do Better: Taking leave to get out of getting underway (Damon), dropping NAVADMINs and programs without much context (Damo). The guys get into a few non-Navy topics, including writing down your goals and most surprising tv or film moment. Words of Wisdom: “The Command will survive without you.” An encounter with an old shipmate leads to a conversation about legacy and leaving a lasting impact on people. The MCPON publishes another “Call to Action,” this one is about Professional and Character development. These topics and more are covered in this episode.

Josh pulls up an article from 5 years ago celebrating the 50th anniversary of the MCPON office, and breaks down some of the feelings highlighted in it. He the addresses how some of those feelings trickle down and leave that sour taste in Sailors mouths as to why the CMC position even exists.

This Episode is brought to you by In this Episode of the Hangar Deck Podcast, the team interviews the 9th Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy, MCPON Jim Herdt.  We discuss his time as the Command Master Chief or CMC of the Aircraft Carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71).  This interview is by far our best work and we appreciate his stories and memories. Jim Herdt  is the CEO of Herdt Consulting, Inc.  Jim transitioned from active duty in April 2002 with 35 years of active naval service.  He served the last four years of his active service as the most senior enlisted member of the United States Navy.  As such, his responsibilities included leading program and policy development for an enlisted force of over 400,000 personnel.  Additionally, he served as a personal advisor to the Chief of Naval Operations, Secretary of the Navy, Secretary of Defense and U.S. Congress on all U.S. Navy personnel policies. This is an awesome and inspiring conversation from MCPON Herdt and he takes a trip back in time to the early to mid 90s in the US Navy and onboard a Nimitz Class Carrier.  Raging Rick, Fast Eddie and myself had a great time with Jim and we hope you continue to enjoy our stories and interviews. The Hangar Deck Podcast would like to thank our audience for the continued support on our venture.  We reached a milestone of over 6,000 downloads and continue to grow our audience.  If you would like to be a guest on The Hangar Deck Podcast contact us at .  The Hangar Deck Podcast Team continues to strive and bring great interviews for the aviation enthusiast.
