Last night's State of the Union was historic and unprecedented. President Trump highlighted record-breaking policy victories—reducing crime, ending wars, lowering gas prices, cutting illegal immigration, and saving lives from fentanyl. He also shared the emotional story of Sage Blair, a teen forced into a gender transition by her school, and spotlighted failures in U.S. government accountability. Meanwhile, Democrats repeatedly sat, glared, and refused to stand, exposing deep partisan divides. Trump called out Republican obstructionists like John Thune and revealed new intelligence on Iran's missile threat. This episode breaks down the shocking moments, policy wins, and viral clips from a speech crafted perfectly for social media.

Military values like honor, integrity, and courage don't matter much when everything is calm, supervised, and low-risk. They matter when you're tired, frustrated, authority is real, and nobody's watching. Today LTC Kirkland breaks down why military values only hold under pressure if they've been trained as habits, using Aristotle's practical ethics as the framework. Aristotle didn't treat virtue as a personal identity or something you “believe in.” He treated it like training: repetition, discipline, and practiced reps that show up automatically when stress hits. We'll also look at what military history shows happens when ethical discipline erodes over time—and why leaders don't “rise to the occasion,” they default to habit. What you'll learn today:  Why knowing the values ≠ living the values Aristotle's “virtue as habit” (and why it's deeply practical) How small decisions become “training reps” for character What command climate really means (what you correct vs. ignore) Why ethical failure creates strategic damage, not just personal consequences If this helped, subscribe for ROTC scholarship mentorship, leadership development, interviews, and application strategy.

Hello to you listening in Olympia, Washington! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. I am a storyteller of the old school. What do I mean? For over 30 years I've taught (and continue to teach) my clients and students the same thing: “Put down the paper and nobody gets hurt!” Why? Because storytellers have something to say that comes from their aliveness, which is what people most want to feel and connect with. Sharing our stories out loud brings them to light and life, and  encourages us to do what most folks fear more than snakes: stand up and speak up in public.   Story spoken aloud is what we leave of ourselves in another person. A story is an intimate lasting legacy, a permanent inheritance much like a vow or an oath. When we share our stories out loud, we connect with each other, we belong to each other. We might not realize it but we are creating a verbal promise, a vow, an oath of belonging. Think about how many times we've heard  someone say, "Repeat after me: I solemnly swear..." Marrying couples pledge faithfulness through the challenges and joys of marriage. Lawyers uphold the law, maintain client confidentiality, and act as an officer of the court. Doctors focus on ethics, patient care and societal responsibilities. Politicians preserve and defend the Constitution. US military support and defend the Constitution against all enemies. Immigrants becoming US citizens swear the Oath of Allegiance to the United States during a formal naturalization ceremony. From the time we are children in school we recite The Pledge of Allegiance, a patriotic promise of loyalty to the United States flag and the republic for which it stands. What happens when we share our stories out loud? They become real. We say what we mean, we mean what we say. We—and those hearing us—know what we stand for and what we won't stand for. Yes, you might write a story but it needs to be shared out loud to enrich and include the wider world. That's the legacy of the stories we leave in those who have heard them spoken aloud.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: Four years after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine began, new signs suggest Moscow's battlefield momentum may be fading. Russian troop levels have plateaued for the first time since the war started, and Ukrainian forces are reclaiming ground in key sectors. Ukraine hits a diplomatic roadblock as Hungary blocks a major European Union loan package and new sanctions on Russia, exposing fractures inside the bloc at a critical moment in the war. Diplomatic efforts to avoid a war with Iran continue as U.S. envoys head to Geneva for high-stakes talks — even as the threat of American strikes remains firmly on the table. In today's Back of the Brief — the fallout from the killing of cartel boss El Mencho spreads across Mexico. Americans in Puerto Vallarta are urged to shelter in place as unrest, road blockades, and flight disruptions ripple through tourist hubs.

In this episode of The Jason Cavness Experience, I sit down with Barry Gipson, better known as the Cowboys Unifier content creator, Dallas Cowboys superfan, and featured speaker at Military Creator Con. Barry shares how he built and monetized a content brand rooted in sports, community, and veteran identity. We break down how Facebook monetization actually works, how he generates revenue from memes and engagement, and why most creators quit before the real results show up. Barry is not just attending Military Creator Con. He's a featured speaker, sharing lessons from a decade of content discipline, audience building, and platform monetization. As a veteran creator, he represents what's possible when you combine consistency, niche focus, and community-first thinking.  We also discuss: • How Barry monetized Facebook and built recurring revenue • Turning passion into a sustainable content business • Why veterans have an advantage in discipline and execution • Planning content like a long-term brand, not a viral gamble • The psychology of algorithms and audience loyalty • Dealing with critics and staying consistent • Why niche audiences outperform broad appeal • What he'll be sharing on stage at Military Creator Con Barry proves you don't need a studio setup to win. You need focus, repetition, and the willingness to show up for years. If you're a veteran creator, entrepreneur, or someone serious about monetizing social platforms, this episode delivers practical insight.  Connect with Barry Gipson LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/barry-gipson-cowboys-unifier/ Website: https://officialamericasteam.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cowboysunifier Military Creator Con Website: https://www.militarycreatorcon.com/ Connect with Jason Cavness LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasoncavness  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejasoncavnessexperience/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jasoncavness Podcast: https://www.thejasoncavnessexperience.com Be Great Every Day!

Episode Summary In this episode, Gary Pinkerton reflects on a recent interview conducted for a PhD thesis on crisis leadership — and shares the real-world lessons he learned leading through high-stakes environments in the military, business, and investing. Gary explains why true crises are often preventable through preparation, liquidity, and resilient financial structures. Drawing from submarine operations, real estate investing, and leadership experience, he breaks down how effective leaders manage uncertainty, control emotional reactions, and make clear decisions when information is incomplete. At the center of the conversation is one powerful principle: Bad news never gets better with time. Listeners will learn how early communication, structured thinking, and trained decision-making processes can transform chaos into manageable action — whether in business, investing, or personal life. This episode delivers practical frameworks for crisis response, leadership development, and building organizations that function effectively even when leaders are absent.

Strategic calculations are intensifying as President Donald Trump weighs a possible strike, while Tehran warns that even a limited attack would be treated as full-scale aggression. Military planners caution that limited operations can quickly spiral, as forces reposition and military plans are refined. Whether the buildup leads to action or remains a posture of deterrence will depend largely on Trump’s decision and the response it provokes.

If a $26,000 drone repair can be done in the field—but policy says it has to be shipped back to the manufacturer, do you really have a reliability problem… or a repair access problem?Today on the show, I'm joined by William Santos, International Sales Manager at ABI Electronics and a global advocate for the Right to Repair movement.William recently wrote a compelling article titled “Readiness Through Repair: How the U.S. Military is Strengthening Capabilities with Right to Repair,” where he explores how repair access—or the lack of it—directly impacts mission readiness, lifecycle cost, and operational resilience within the U.S. military.For decades, highly trained military technicians have been prevented from repairing mission-critical equipment due to restricted access to diagnostic tools, software, and spare parts. That model is now being challenged. In April 2024, the U.S. Army announced plans to embed Right-to-Repair provisions into both new and existing contracts—a major shift with enormous implications for reliability, sustainment, and cost control.Today, we'll unpack what this policy change really means, why repair capability is inseparable from readiness, and what lessons commercial industry can learn from the military's pivot toward repair empowerment.Willian's Posts:Exposing the Myths and Truths of the Repair Industry!https://tinyurl.com/mr47r33pReadiness Through Repair: How the US Military is Strengthening Capabilities with Right to Repairhttps://tinyurl.com/4pytbvcsABI Electronicshttps://www.abielectronics.co.ukRepair Don't Waste Podcasthttps://tinyurl.com/du8skcxk

For anyone who has ever crashed hard after a high and wondered what is wrong with them, Ryan Reichert has some answers and a lot of honesty. If you are tired of white-knuckling your way through the hard seasons and want real tools from someone who has actually been there, this one is worth your time.More info, resources & ways to connect - https://www.tacosfallapart.com/podcast-live-show/podcast-guests/ryan-reichertRyan Reichert has lived a life of extremes. Military veteran, Fortune 500 executive, recovering alcoholic, divorced dad rebuilding his relationship with his kids. He has been at the top and at the bottom, sometimes within the same year. That kind of experience doesn't make you an expert by default, but it can if you're willing to do the work and tell the truth about all of it. Ryan has done both.On this episode of Even Tacos Fall Apart, Ryan joins us to talk about the emotional cycles we all go through and why so many of us are completely unprepared for them. His book, The Icarus Effect, takes its name from the myth of a guy who flew too high and paid for it, and Ryan argues that most of us are doing exactly that, without even realizing it.The conversation goes a lot of places. We talk about what it actually means to regulate your emotions versus just suppressing them, and why age alone doesn't make you better at it. Ryan is very clear on this point: he has seen people with decades of life experience who still blow up at the smallest things, because emotional intelligence is a skill you have to build, not something that just arrives one day.We also get into his sobriety, which hit the two-year mark right around the time we recorded this. He is honest about what drove the drinking and what finally made him stop, and it has nothing to do with willpower. The alcohol was never really the problem. It was the shame, the secrecy and the lifetime of carrying things he never told anyone.Ryan talks about what it looks like to actually start managing your emotional responses in real time, including some practical tools from his book. Box breathing for anger. Grounding your senses when anxiety takes over. Letting yourself feel joy without immediately overindulging in it. None of it is complicated, but all of it takes practice and most people never start.His closing message for anyone in a low point right now is simple: you are not alone, and you almost certainly have someone you can reach out to, even if it doesn't feel that way. He also said something that stuck with me, which is that people are probably already judging you, so you might as well just tell the truth. It was funnier in context but also completely correct.Ryan is a speaker, mindset coach and the author of The Icarus Effect. You can find him at ourprotectordevelopment.com and across all the major social platforms. Give this episode a listen and then go find someone to have an honest conversation with.

This is analysis.We explore:• What a new nuclear proposal could mean• Why military readiness remains active• How proxy tensions influence diplomacy• And how Scripture frames moments of geopolitical alignmentThis episode presents current events through a thoughtful biblical worldview while remaining responsible, measured, and informational. We do not promote hostility or violence. Our goal is to provide context, clarity, and faith-based insight during complex global developments.

Is the United States on the brink of striking Iran? Michael is joined by Admiral James Stavridis, former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO, to break down President Trump's options—from diplomacy and cyber operations to limited precision strikes and the possibility of “shock and awe.” With massive U.S. forces already deployed, has America ever prepared this much firepower without pulling the trigger? Then, listeners weigh in—including sailors and submariners who describe the real-life toll of extended deployments: missed funerals, months without sunlight, and the strain on military families. A powerful conversation about war planning, presidential decision-making, and the human cost of staying ready. Original air date 23 February 2026. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As Iranian officers briefed Hezbollah operatives in Lebanon, Fabian discusses assessments regarding the Iranian proxy in Lebanon attacking Israel if the US strikes Iran and Iran strikes Israel, and the concurrent uptick in IDF attacks against Hezbollah in recent weeks. Fabian reports that the world's largest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald Ford, is about to reach the region, offering another stage of readiness for a possible US strike against Iran. After dozens of settler activists entered the closed military zone of the Gaza border on Thursday night, Fabian notes that the political action diverted the army’s attention away from defending against potential attacks.
