War stories are easy to tell. There's action, adventure, and good vs evil. For most Veterans their service isn't defined or explained by their war stories. For most Veterans the story that is far most difficult to write...and to live...is the story they have to write themselves.In this episode, Fran Racioppi sat down with Steven Grayhm, writer and director of Sheepdog, a film dedicated to telling the most difficult story of our Veterans. The story of what happens to us, our families, our friends, and those around us when the war stories fade, reality sets in, and the hard work must actually begin. Steven explains his 14 year journey to make Sheepdog, the thousands of hours he spent with Veterans of all walks of life, his embedment at VA hospitals across the country, and the reality of independent filmmaking; a blue collar process rooted in grit before the red carpet, where every dollar is raised face to face and every decision carries weight. The film confronts veteran suicide honestly while reinforcing a simple truth. Ending your life does not end the pain. It ends the possibility of it ever getting better.What drove Sheepdog was not an interest in war, but a responsibility to understand what happens after it. Steven and his team studied the realities of trauma, addiction, brain injury, generational differences between Vietnam and post 9/11 service members, and the long shadow that war can cast over identity and purpose. They went where the conversations were uncomfortable, where the answers were not clean, and where trust had to be earned. The result is a film that focuses not on combat, but on the war within. Veterans are not victims. Sheepdog recognizes that service members volunteered, took risk, and earned something that does not disappear when the uniform comes off. A Veteran's perspective matters. Trauma exists, but it does not eliminate the responsibility of Veterans to continue their personal and professional growth post service. Sheepdog is a story about redefining purpose, about post traumatic growth, and about the courage required to take the first step forward when the path is unclear. It reflects the reality that transition is not a checklist, that no two experiences are the same, and that finding the right sense of mission after service is critical.Highlights0:00 Introduction3:42 Why make Sheepdog?12:40 Addressing generational differences16:38 The idea of perspective21:34 Losing morality29:52 Veteran Suicide37:43 VA resources1:03:40 Was it all for nothing?1:08:34 Hope for SheepdogQuotes“The hardest thing I ever have done wasn't to become a Green Beret, it was to not be a Green Beret.”“They train you so well to do that job that you never really understand what the result of that job actually looks like.”“Whatever happens on the other side of this, I'm going to leave it there.” “One of the most challenging things in this journey of Sheepdog was getting it right.”“The warrior doesn't get to choose the war they go into.”“It haunted me in my nightmares for years that crack in the sheep pen wall.”“The guys that I learned to be more worried about were the guys that smiled through the pain.”“I get very nervous when people wax poetically about suicide because it comes in all different forms.”“All the resources in the world can exist, but it doesn't matter if you're not willing to use them.”“Veterans are not victims.”“In the film you would see, no one feels sorry for themselves.”“I think we have to do better as a veteran to remove the victim mindset.”“If we could save a single life with this film, that would be the greatest Hollywood success story."Follow the Jedburgh Podcast and the Green Beret Foundation on social media.

Warmer waters have brought large number of octopus to coastal waters around the South West over the past year. Now, the University of Plymouth has published a report bringing together evidence from scientists, the fishing industry and citizen scientists to reveal more about what's known as the 'octopus bloom'. What can it tell us about the changing marine environment, the consequences for sea life, and the impact on fishing?The on-farm science group BOFIN is starting a three-year £2.5 million project funded through Defra's Farming Innovation Programme. It'll be growing the first commercial trial of precision-bred oilseed rape, which will be resistant to light leaf spot. Sheepdog training and competitions have captivated TV audiences for decades, and watching sheepdogs in action in the field is one of the privileges of farming. We speak to sheepdog trainer Nij Vyas as he puts one of his students through her paces.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Many celebrities will tell you that if not for that one lucky break or meeting, they would have been working at McDonald's, like Rachel McAdams, or a grocery clerk like Cardi B.

The new film Sheepdog was over a decade in the making.

His therapist, played by Oscar-nominated actor Virginia Madsen, is new to the job, still finishing her schooling. Madsen’s connection to the film is also a personal one. On FilmWeek, Larry Mantle speaks with filmmaker Steven Grayhm and actor Virginia Madsen about the making of Sheepdog and their respective emotional connections to the film.

Breaking news! Kathleen Kennedy exits LucasFilm. Plus reviews of 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, All You Need is Kill, Dead Man's Wire and more. And an interview with Sheepdog director Steven Grayhm. Hilarity ensues.
Our first guest today is Former Ambassador Thomas Shannon, Jr, a Senior International Policy Advisor bringing more than three decades of government service and diplomatic experience to his practice, providing strategic counsel to clients across a range of legislative, foreign police, and national security issues. Thomas explains why France, Italy, and Spain have been hesitant to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard as a terrorist organization, despite its extensive involvement in terrorist activity inside Iran and beyond. He notes that such a designation could complicate future cooperation during a potential political transition in Iran. Thomas also examines the long-standing relationship between Venezuela and Cuba. After Russia withdrew support from Cuba in 1991, Venezuela emerged as Havana's primary lifeline—providing oil and financial support in exchange for Cuban intelligence officers and social programs that helped the Chávez government maintain control over political opposition, monitor the Venezuelan military, and provide security for Chávez himself. As Cuba enters a period of slow political change, the sudden loss of Venezuelan oil, gas, and cash would have profound consequences for the island. Finally, Thomas warns that failed efforts at regime change can leave the international community worse off than before. President Trump has pursued a solution to Venezuela for more than a decade, and Thomas discusses the strategic dilemma facing Trump following plans to capture Nicolás Maduro and his wife: whether to recognize a democratic opposition that claims victory in the 2024 election, or to pursue an alternative pathway for political transition. Our in-studio guest this week is Greg Roeberg, a candidate for Arizona Attorney General. Greg is a husband, father, business leader, and cancer survivor who previously served as President Trump's campaign attorney, working to defend the integrity of our elections. During the discussion, Greg explains the role of the Attorney General and outlines how he would uphold and defend the Arizona State Constitution. He also addresses the controversial lawsuits filed by Kris Mayes and shares his priorities and plans should he be elected as Arizona's next Attorney General. We are joined by actor and director Steven Grayhm, who has just released a new film titled Sheepdog. The movie explores the challenges combat veterans face as they transition back into civilian life. Sheepdog—sheepdofthemovie.com—premieres today, January 16th. The inspiration for the film began when Steven met a tow truck driver who came to his aid after his car broke down. During their conversation, the driver shared his own struggles reintegrating into everyday life after military service. That encounter stayed with Steven. In 2011, he traveled across the country meeting with veterans and quickly realized this was not an isolated experience—many veterans face the same difficult challenges. Those stories became the foundation and inspiration for Sheepdog. Our financial expert, Gary Gygi, joins us once again to break down the state of the economy. While economic growth continues, job creation has lagged. Employers aren't laying workers off—but they also aren't hiring at significant levels. As a result, many Americans are juggling multiple jobs and working 60 to 70 hours a week just to make ends meet. Meanwhile, the U.S. trade deficit has fallen to its lowest level in years, signaling a major reduction in the trade imbalance. If this trend continues, it reflects exactly what President Trump has long emphasized: reindustrializing America and exporting more of what we produce.

In this Veterans Breakfast Club livestream, we sit down with filmmaker Steven Grayhm to talk about Sheepdog, an independent feature film that takes a hard, honest look at combat trauma, recovery, and the long road home. Grayhm not only stars in the film, but also wrote, produced, and directed it—an unusual level of authorship that reflects how personal the project is. Sheepdog centers on Calvin Cole (Grayhm), a decorated U.S. Army combat veteran who is court-ordered into treatment and placed under the care of a VA trauma therapist-in-training (played by Madsen), who is juggling her clinical work with night shifts at a diner to pay for school. Calvin's fragile attempt to hold himself together is further tested when his father-in-law, a retired Vietnam veteran (Curtis Hall), appears at his door fresh out of prison. As Calvin's instinct to run from his past collapses, the film traces how accountability, compassion, and hard-earned trust can open a path toward healing. Shot on location in Western Massachusetts, Sheepdog aims to lift the veil on post-traumatic stress and the veteran suicide crisis, while also focusing on the often-overlooked idea of post-traumatic growth. Rather than offering easy answers, the film shows the physical and psychological consequences of trauma—and the slow, uneven work of recovery—through grounded performances and lived-in settings. Film critic Tony Toscana called it “one of the best films of the year.” We'll ask Grayhm about how Sheepdog came to be: years spent listening to veterans' stories, studying trauma and VA treatment models, and working closely with veterans and clinicians to get the details right. He'll reflect on why he felt compelled to tell this story himself, why authenticity matters more than spectacle, and what it takes to bring an independently made, veteran-centered film from script to screen. This livestream will explore the making of Sheepdog, the responsibilities of telling veterans' stories on film, and what cinema can—and cannot—do when it comes to understanding trauma, recovery, and the complicated work of coming home. We're grateful to UPMC for Life for sponsoring this event!

Welcome back to The Following Films Podcast, where we dive into the stories behind the films that move us, challenge us, and stay with us long after the credits roll.Today's episode brings us a powerful new drama that explores trauma, resilience, and the complicated journey home after war. Sheepdog, written and directed by Steven Grayhm, arrives in theaters January 16, 2026, and it's a deeply human story about what it really takes to heal.The film centers on Calvin Cole, a decorated U.S. Army combat veteran who is court-ordered into treatment under the care of a VA trauma therapist in training. Just as he begins confronting his past, his estranged father-in-law—a retired Vietnam veteran recently released from prison—arrives at his doorstep, forcing Calvin to face everything he's been trying to outrun. Through community, tough love, and compassion, Sheepdog becomes a story about putting yourself back together again—for your family, and for yourself.The film features an extraordinary ensemble, including Steven Grayhm, Vondie Curtis Hall, Dominic Fumusa, Lilli Cooper, Matt Dallas—and today's guest, Academy Award nominee Virginia Madsen, whose work continues to bring depth, grace, and emotional truth to every project she touches.Madsen, best known for films like Sideways, brings a remarkable presence to Sheepdog, helping ground the story in empathy and emotional realism. Her performance is part of what makes this film resonate so deeply, especially as it tackles the generational impact of war and the quiet battles that continue long after soldiers come home.I'm thrilled to welcome Virginia Madsen to The Following Films Podcast to talk about her work on Sheepdog, what drew her to the project, and why stories like this feel so vital right now.Let's get into it.
We're looking at another emotional film this week on BEHIND THE LENS as I chat with writer/director and actor STEVEN GRAYHM in this exclusive interview about his latest film, SHEEPDOG, one of the most important and powerful films you will see this year. SHEEPDOG is the story of decorated U.S. Army combat veteran Calvin Cole, who is court-ordered into treatment and into the care of a VA trauma therapist in-training. Things become even more complicated when Calvin's father-in-law, a retired Vietnam Veteran, shows up on his doorstep having just been released from prison.

In this episode, I sit down with Stephen Grayhm and Matt Dallas to unpack the real story behind Sheepdog. This is not just a film. It is a lived journey that took fourteen years to bring into the world and required confronting pain, resistance, and personal history at every step.We talk openly about trauma in the veteran experience, not as something to escape, but as the very force that forges clarity, purpose, and depth. Watching these men walk this path mirrored many moments in my own life. It became clear that what we label as trauma often carries the exact information needed for growth, leadership, and service.We explore the challenges of making a film that tells the truth, the internal battles that surfaced along the way, and what it means to keep going when the outcome is uncertain. This conversation is about resilience, responsibility, and discovering that there is life beyond the wound.This episode is for veterans, builders, and anyone who has been shaped by hardship and is ready to understand what that experience was preparing them for.Thank you and I Love you.
Filmmaker Stephen Grayhm on Sheepdog: Honoring Veterans Through Authentic Storytelling In this episode of Oscar Mike Radio, I sit down with filmmaker Stephen Grayhm to talk about his powerful new movie, Sheepdog. The film explores the experiences of U.S. veterans, post-traumatic growth, and the importance of empathy in storytelling. Inspiration from Service and Legacy Stephen shared how his grandfather's WWII service and a chance encounter with a veteran profoundly influenced his work. Those moments sparked his mission to tell veterans' stories with honesty and respect, capturing both the pain and growth that come after service. Creating Sheepdog: Research and Responsibility Bringing Sheepdog to life took rigorous research and deep collaboration with real veterans and mental health professionals. Stephen and his team wanted to ensure the film accurately represents both communities — avoiding stereotypes while focusing on authentic emotion and human connection. Our conversation dives into what it means to tell these stories responsibly, how filmmakers can use empathy as a guiding principle, and why portrayal matters, especially when dealing with trauma and recovery. Bridging the Civilian–Military Divide At its heart, Sheepdog is about understanding, compassion, and connection. Stephen's vision is to bridge the gap between civilian and military communities through open, honest storytelling. By fostering empathy, he hopes to build a framework where people can engage in supportive conversations about veterans' healing journeys. A Mission that Continues This episode of Oscar Mike Radio celebrates more than just a movie — it's about the mission of storytelling as a form of service. Stephen's work reminds us that sharing the real stories behind those who served helps foster resilience, community, and dialogue that can heal divides. To learn more about Stephen's film, visit sheepdogthemovie.com. Thank you, Stephen, for joining me and for your dedication to honoring the voices of veterans everywhere.
Sheepdogs and Spiritual Warfare #RTTBROS #Nightlight"Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." — Ephesians 6:11-12You know, I have a friend who was career military, a Navy SEAL to boot. He knows the guys like Dick Marcinko and Admiral McRaven and other heroes from that branch of special forces. He's one of the toughest men I've ever met in my life. The other night at church, I had to take my autistic son out of the service because he was becoming a little bit disruptive. I sat on a couch in the foyer and watched my friend do his diligence on the security team. He scanned the perimeter, checked the parking lot, actively watching everything that was going on to make certain that our people were secure and safe. After watching him for a while, I went up and put my hand on his shoulder and told him this: there are sheep, and there are wolves, and there are sheepdogs. Then I thanked him for being a sheepdog that protects us sheep from the wolves that would come to try to harm us.As I've been thinking about that statement and his watch care over us, it reminded me that those of us who have been involved in spiritual warfare for a long time have a duty to provide protection for those who don't even understand that they're in a warfare. They represent the sheep, as it were.It's our job as more mature believers to look out for pitfalls that may be in their way and spiritual attacks that are coming from the enemy of their souls. We need to have the sword of the Spirit engaged and ready to speak truth into their situations so that the lying deceiver won't gain any ground or foothold in their life.Paul tells us in Ephesians that we're not fighting against people, we're fighting against spiritual forces of darkness. The new believer, the struggling saint, they might not even realize the battle that's raging around them. But we who have been in the trenches, we know. We've seen how the enemy works.Just like my friend scanning that parking lot, looking for threats before they become problems, we need to be vigilant. We need to be engaged in warfare prayer, asking God to provide protection and provision and, most of all, His presence for them as they make their way through this sin-cursed world.You see, being a spiritual sheepdog isn't about being better than anyone else. It's about using the experience and wisdom God has given us through our own battles to help protect those who are vulnerable. It's about standing guard in prayer, speaking truth in love, and being willing to step into the gap when the enemy attacks.So let me ask you: are you a sheepdog? Are you watching over the flock with the same diligence my friend shows on that security team? Because the sheep need us. They need believers who will stand firm, who will pray without ceasing, who will speak truth when lies are whispered.History is just His story, and in God's story, He's called us to watch over one another. Don't grow weary in that calling.Let's pray: Father, make us faithful sheepdogs for Your flock. Give us eyes to see the spiritual battles around us and courage to stand in the gap for those who are vulnerable. Help us wield the sword of Your Spirit with wisdom and love.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for December 30, 2025. 0:30 We kick off today’s show with a major legal showdown as the U.S. Department of Justice takes aim at the state of Virginia over immigration and college tuition policy. We break down how Virginia law allows students without legal immigration status to qualify for discounted tuition if they attended Virginia schools, even as law-abiding U.S. citizens from states like West Virginia or North Carolina are forced to pay more. These benefits directly violate federal law, which prohibits states from offering post-secondary education benefits to illegal immigrants unless those same benefits are provided to all U.S. citizens on identical terms. It's a test of the Supremacy Clause and federal authority over immigration, and these policies normalize lawlessness one benefit at a time. 10:00 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. US Attorney General Pam Bondi said this week that the DOJ has already indicted 98 people with fraud in Minnesota this year. A federal judge has ruled that the Trump Administration does not have the authority to block funding to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. President Trump will become the first non-Israeli to be awarded the Israel Prize. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 We dig into the unraveling scandal surrounding fraudulent daycare operations in Minnesota. As scrutiny intensifies, the focus turns to empty daycare centers—previously exposed by independent reporting— that are now suddenly filled with children, raising serious questions about timing and credibility. 16:00 The American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson don’t hold back on this one. They take on the question of why it suddenly feels like everyone has a disability—and whether it’s about real need or working the system. While acknowledging legitimate conditions that truly require accommodations, they zero in on what they see as a disturbing trend: elite college students claiming disability status for special treatment, extra time, exemptions, and advantages. This isn’t about compassion anymore—it’s about entitlement. A culture that rewards victimhood, hands out loopholes, and teaches young people that being “broken” is a badge of honor. Comparing today’s mindset to the grit and pride of earlier generations, the Mamas warn that intelligence without ethics is dangerous, and a society that incentivizes weakness shouldn’t be surprised when responsibility, character, and resilience disappear. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 Protests are breaking out across multiple cities in Iran as the country's economy spirals. The national currency has collapsed to record lows against the U.S. dollar, inflation has surged past 40 percent, and everyday life is becoming increasingly unlivable for ordinary Iranians. 24:30 Plus, we give director and actor Steven Grayhm a call. His film Sheepdog, is set to release nationwide on January 16, centered on the unseen battles of PTSD and the long-term cost of military service. Grayhm spent years traveling the country, listening to veterans, Gold Star families, and mental-health professionals, determined to tell their stories without political spin or Hollywood gloss. The result, he says, is a “love letter” to those who wore the uniform and the families who carried the burden alongside them. 32:00 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 According to newly revealed information, more than $5 billion in HUD rental assistance payments during the final year of the Biden administration were flagged as questionable or improper—an eye-popping figure that immediately raises red flags. According to newly revealed information, more than $5 billion in HUD rental assistance payments during the final year of the Biden administration were flagged as questionable or improper—an eye-popping figure that immediately raises red flags. The most jaw-dropping detail: over 30,000 of those payments allegedly went to people who were already deceased. 35:30 New data shows Bible sales in the United States are booming, with double-digit growth two years in a row, and that's a Bright Spot. The resurgence isn’t limited to Bible sales alone. Church attendance is rising, especially among young people, with Catholic parishes seeing growth even in major cities like New York—places long declared spiritually dead by the secular elite. Add in the historic election of the first American pope, and the signs of a broader faith revival are hard to miss. 39:30 Here’s something that stopped us in our tracks: Charlie Kirk was the most searched name in the world in 2025. Not just in the United States—globally. More than any other news story, more than any other headline, Charlie Kirk topped Google search inquiries worldwide. 41:00 And we finish off today's episode with the most popular New Year's resolutions.

Mike meets actor, writer, and director Steven Grayhm, whose award-winning film Sheepdog is about to hit theaters. Steven breaks down how a three-hour ride with a tow truck driver led him on a 14-year odyssey to get to the truth about veteran post-traumatic stress. It's a conversation about grit, service, sacrifice, and the complicated realities faced by the men and women who stand their post long after the uniform comes off. Steven's passion for telling their stories with honesty and respect shines through every frame of Sheepdog, and every minute of this conversation.
