A lifelong waterman, Brandon grew up chasing waves before enlisting in the Navy with aspirations of becoming a doctor. Over his 21-year career, he served with Marine aviation units, deployed to combat zones, flew as an aircrew door gunner, and later graduated Navy Dive School at the age of 35.But Brandon's most defining battle began when his son was diagnosed with severe autism. Learning to lead with compassion instead of control, Brandon found himself confronting the limits of structure, adapting his identity as both a father and a veteran. After retiring, he faced a mysterious illness, professional setbacks, and a deep void left by the loss of military purpose. His search for healing brought him to holistic retreats, breath work, and a newfound mission to serve veterans and first responders in transition.In this raw and inspiring episode, Brandon opens up about the weight of family trauma, the toll of service, and the path to finding meaning after the uniform comes off. Whether you're active duty, nearing transition, or long since retired, his story is a powerful reminder that purpose doesn't end with your career.

Send us a textIn this no-holds-barred Daily Drop, Peaches dives headfirst into the latest national defense chaos—from Humvees rolling through LA to Marines moonlighting as ICE support in Florida. Pete Hegseth wants to bring the warrior spirit back (because apparently we lost it), and Jared's not buying the sudden patriotism unless you're ready to pull bodies from burning cars.
