Can Britain still defend itself? It sounds like the sort of question once heard in gloomy pubs from men who owned atlases and distrusted decimalisation. Yet here we are, asking it seriously.In this episode of Mark and Pete, we look at Britain's armed forces, the shrinking Army, shortages of personnel, ageing equipment, thin ammunition stocks, delayed defence spending and the uncomfortable possibility that the United Kingdom has spent decades assuming somebody else would deal with the unpleasant bits.Britain still has nuclear weapons, aircraft carriers, submarines, Typhoon jets, intelligence capabilities and capable servicemen and women. This is not a story about helplessness. It is, however, a story about whether a country can keep cutting, postponing and reorganising defence while still expecting the machinery to work when needed. Governments have become fond of strategic reviews. Soldiers, one suspects, would also quite like ammunition.Pete and Mark discuss whether the British Army is now too small, whether the Royal Navy has enough ships, how drone warfare has changed the battlefield, and why conflict is no longer confined to tanks crossing borders. Cyberattacks, sabotage, undersea cables, satellites, energy infrastructure and misinformation all belong to the defence of the realm now. The castle walls have become invisible, which makes neglecting them wonderfully easy.There is also the moral question. A nation cannot praise its armed forces on ceremonial occasions, send them into danger, and then house families badly, delay procurement and hope recruitment improves by magic.The episode takes its theme from Psalm 127: “Except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.” That verse does not excuse poor preparation. Quite the opposite. The watchman must still watch. The city must still be guarded. But national security cannot finally rest in weapons, budgets, speeches or polished men standing beside flags.Can Britain still defend itself? Probably. But “probably” is not usually the word one wants printed across a defence policy.

The Rapper Ye, formerly know as Kanye West is returning to Chicago to perform concerts on September 3rd and 4th. Ye generated several controversies when he started making antisemitic and bigoted remarks in 2022. Last January, Ye took out a full-page ad in The Wall Street Journal to apologize for the comments. However, his concerts in France, Italy and Poland this year have been cancelled, citing concerns over Ye's alleged antisemitism.

Pulaski is often built up into an almost mythic figure who represents patriotism, bravery, freedom, independence, and the U.S. as a melting pot. a nation of immigrants. But there’s also a very different version of his story.

Originally released September 15, 2025. During the Civil War, hundreds of people assigned female at birth served in male disguise. Some did it out of patriotism, some for love, and for others, it was about living as the gender they knew themselves to be. In this episode, we uncover the stories of Albert D.J. Cashier, Lyons Wakeman, Frank Thompson, Samuel Blalock, Mollie “Melvin” Bean, and Mary “John” Burns — individuals who challenged 19th-century gender norms and risked everything to serve as the men they truly were. Then we chat with Comedian, Kitty Long. Did you know The Internet Says It's True is now a book?

I'd love to hear your thoughts - send me a text hereWorld War II continues in Europe and the Pacific, while Bob Dole continues to train on the home front and wonders if he will ever make it overseas, like his younger brother Kenny who is an experienced combat veteran by summer 1944. When Dole gets another chance to attend OCS and become an officer, he jumps at it - and this time he gets a class slot. The Army has a shortage of lieutenants and needs to quickly train more. Dole is happy to replace an LT but never stops to ask why so many need to be replaced.

Feed Your Head: The Great Jefferson Airplane Deep Dive is an audio documentary that was consciously crafted to act as the ultimate repository of fact and opinion on one of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth. It includes long-form interviews, commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release.  Part 7 of the series covers the period from January 1966 to October 31, 1966—that is, from the release of their debut album to Grace joining the group and recording album number two—in the style of an audiobook. Here are just a few of the many things discussed in this episode of Discograffiti: The Airplane's first major press coverage; How The Haight handled being overrun by floods of lost children who were looking to live this new lifestyle they'd seen on TV; Signe's farewell; A brief history of both Grace Slick and The Great! Society; The creation of the original “Somebody To Love” & “White Rabbit”; Grace joins Jefferson Airplane; And an exclusive interview with Ruthann Friedman—writer of The Association's #1 Summer of Love smash “Windy”—who recounts nearly becoming Jefferson Airplane's vocalist before Grace wound up getting the gig.   CONNECT Join our Soldiers of Sound Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1839109176272153 Patreon:  https://www.patreon.com/discograffiti Podfollow: ⁠⁠https://podfollow.com/1592182331⁠⁠ YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClyaQCdvDelj5EiKj6IRLhw Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/discograffitipod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Discograffiti/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Discograffiti Order the Digital version of the METAL MACHINE MUZAK 2xLP (feat.

What if leadership isn't about having all the answers?What if success isn't determined by outcomes alone?And what if the most important lessons in life are the ones nobody ever teaches you?In this episode of Be All You Can Be MSC, I sit down with recently retired Command Sergeant Major Erano "Buma" Bumanglag, a senior executive and Army leader whose 31-year career spanned Special Operations, Army Medicine, the Pentagon, disaster response, and Joint Task Force–Civil Support under U.S. Northern Command and NORAD.Our conversation explores the realities of leadership at every level from junior Soldiers to senior executives and the life principles that helped shape his journey.We discuss:▪️ Why senior leaders don't have all the answers▪️ Emotional intelligence versus rank▪️ The relationship between officers and senior enlisted leaders▪️ Learning from failure instead of fearing it▪️ Tactical versus strategic leadership▪️ The power of humility and removing ego▪️ Why relationships matter more than credentials▪️ His "4 Fs" philosophy: Faith, Family, Fitness, and Finance▪️ The inspiration behind his book Life Craft Strategies: $h!t You Don't Learn in SchoolOne of my favorite takeaways:"Do the best job you can in the role you have today. Stop chasing the next position and become exceptional where you are."Buma's book is a collection of practical life lessons drawn from decades of leadership experience, self-reflection, and observation. As he describes it, it's about the things we learn through failure, resilience, relationships, and experience—not from a classroom.

Peter Huessy discusses the history of "tactical" nuclear weapons and the 1950s Desert Rock exercises where U.S. troops were exposed to nuclear detonations. He details the health risks soldiers faced and parallels these actions with Sovietmaneuvers, highlighting the "ludicrous" idea of trying to operate militarily in a post-detonation environment.

In this conversation recorded live at Symbolic World, John Heers sits down with Mother Agapia for a deep, unfiltered account of life on the ground in the West Bank: the building of the wall, the expansion of settlements, the targeting of Christian communities, and the complicated, often beautiful relationship between Orthodox Christians and their Muslim neighbors.Mother Agapia is an American Orthodox nun who spent decades living and working in Bethany, Bethlehem, and Jerusalem — running a school where 98% of the students were Muslim Palestinians. What she witnessed about the fate of Christians in the Holy Land is rarely spoken of in Western media.Topics covered:• How Mother Agapia ended up living and working in Palestine for decades• The spiritual geography of the Holy Land and who actually lives there• The Second Intifada and the moment everything changed• Soldiers confiscating crosses and icons at checkpoints — in broad daylight• Christian Zionism: a critique from someone who lived inside the conflict• Why Mother Agapia believes this is now a direct attack on Christianity• Her work in Washington DC and what changed when she returned• The Tucker Carlson interview and the message it carriedThis is not a political debate. It is a first-hand witness testimony from a woman who gave 30 years of her life to the people of Palestine — Christian and Muslim alike.⏱ Timestamps:0:00 – John Heers intro2:40 – Interview begins: How did you get to Jerusalem?10:00 – The geography: "The size of New Jersey"15:00 – Before the wall: life in Bethany22:00 – The Second Intifada and the settlements28:58 – Soldiers at checkpoints: crosses thrown in the garbage33:00 – Tucker Carlson and the Western media narrative36:00 – Christian Zionism: a false theology?40:00 – Raising the alarm: why it's different now42:30 – John Heers closing: wine, words, and the SupraFind this episode on Youtube: __

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-sixty-first episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by the Senior Enlisted Medical Advisor and Role II Observer-Coach-Trainer for the Task Force Sustainment (BSB / CSSB), MSG Timothy Sargent on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guests are four seasoned senior NCOs within one of our infantry task forces. CSM Edwards Cumming is the TF CSM, 1SG Jeremiah Guerra is a CO Team 1SG, 1SG Mark Varley is a CO Team 1SG, and SFC William Deutsch is the Senior Medical Observer – Coach – Trainer within Task Force 3 (IN BN). This episode explores the critical relationship between casualty care and maneuver operations, emphasizing that medical support cannot exist separately from the fight. Leaders discuss how the realities of Large Scale Combat Operations are forcing units to rethink long-held assumptions developed during the counterinsurgency era, particularly the expectation of rapid evacuation and uncontested medical support. Topics include self-aid, buddy-aid, casualty collection points (CCPs), ambulance exchange points (AXPs), casualty evacuation (CASEVAC), mass casualty planning, and the difficult balance between continuing the mission and treating the wounded. A recurring theme throughout the discussion is that survivability begins at the point of injury, and units that fail to train Soldiers on individual and buddy care often experience significantly higher rates of preventable losses. The episode reinforces that casualty care is not solely a medical responsibility—it is a leader responsibility that must be integrated into every operation from planning through execution.    The conversation also focuses on the importance of integrating medical personnel into the planning process at every echelon. Leaders highlight common shortcomings observed at JRTC, including poorly understood medical SOPs, ineffective CCP placement, underutilization of AXPs, and failure to include medical NCOs and medics in MDMP, rehearsals, and tactical planning. Additional discussion centers on building combat-ready medics who understand maneuver operations, establishing trust between medics and line units, developing casualty evacuation plans that are realistic for contested environments, and training medical tasks during everyday operations rather than treating them as standalone events. Ultimately, the episode argues that successful casualty care in LSCO requires synchronization between the medical and maneuver enterprises, disciplined planning, aggressive training, and leaders who understand that integrating medical capabilities into the fight saves lives while preserving combat power.    Part of S03 “Lightfighter Lessons” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast.   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

If you PsychArmor has helped you learn, grow, and support those who've served and those who care for them, we would appreciate hearing your story. Please follow this link to share how PsychArmor has helped you in your service journey Share PsychArmor StoriesAbout Today's GuestAmanda Noyes is the founder of Finding Freedom Therapy. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker–Supervisor with over 25 years of experience, she has had the opportunity to work in numerous crisis situations where she witnessed firsthand the gravity of trauma and grief. It was in these situations that she realized there were not enough opportunities to heal from trauma and loss after the initial crisis. With this knowledge, she formed Finding Freedom Therapy, PLLC, in 2014 with the vision of providing specialized treatment to those who have endured (or are continuing to endure) horrific traumas and unspeakable losses.After earning her degree in psychology and international studies from Texas A&M University, Amanda pursued her Master of Science in Social Work at the University of Texas at Austin. Throughout her career, she has had the unique opportunity to gain notable hands-on experience, much of which was working in conjunction with the military, first responders, and frontline workers. She has worked alongside probation and parole officers in the field, with police officers on-scene, supported doctors and nurses in the ED and ICU departments of level-one trauma centers, counseled families of the recently deceased at the moment of loss, and worked next to the U.S. National Guard when assisting during Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, Ike, and Harvey.Amanda's experience with veterans and military service members began early in her career with her graduate internship at the Michael E. DeBakey VA Hospital, and later continued with her work as lead trauma therapist for an inpatient military program, Freedom Care, where she worked with active-duty combat military and veterans suffering from PTSD. She is trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and Written Exposure Therapy (WET). Each and every step of her career has shaped and strengthened her ability to better assist clients through the most difficult times in their lives.Links Mentioned in this Episode Finding Freedom Therapy WebsiteDFW First Responders Support NetworkPsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's resource of the week is the PsychArmor course Trauma Informed Interactions with Veterans.

In this episode of the Building Better Humans Project, I share some reflections from a recent trip back to Kapooka—the place where Australian soldiers begin their journey. Watching a new generation of recruits march out brought back a flood of memories and reminded me of something I believe deeply: the lessons we learn early in life have the power to shape who we become for decades to come. As I stood there watching those young men and women, I felt an enormous sense of pride—not just in what they had achieved, but in the values they were committing themselves to. Values like respect, integrity, service, excellence and courage. They are simple words, but they have the power to guide us through every challenge life throws our way. In this episode, I unpack what those values have meant to me throughout my life and why I believe they matter just as much outside the military as they do within it. We talk about treating people with dignity, doing the right thing when nobody is watching, serving something bigger than yourself, striving to be better every day, and finding the courage to keep moving forward when life gets tough. I also share some personal stories and lessons from my own journey—times when I've got it right, times when I've got it wrong, and the reminders I continually come back to when I need to recalibrate and reconnect with what's important. At its core, this episode is about character. Because when life gets hard, and it will, character is what remains. It's what carries you through adversity, helps you stay true to yourself, and allows you to become the person you're capable of being. My challenge to you in this episode is simple: take some time to revisit the lessons and values that helped shape you. Ask yourself whether you're still living by them. And if you've drifted away from them, maybe it's time to reconnect. I hope this conversation encourages you to build a stronger foundation, live with greater purpose, and continue the journey of becoming a better human. Enjoy the episode.

Here we are, God's daughters, under attack. Every day the enemy attacks with the hopes of distracting us or distancing us from God. That's why we must put on the full armor God has offered us. He doesn't want his girls vulnerable to the devil, he wants us victorious. Last week we studied the first 3 pieces of our God given armor for the spiritual battle: The Belt of Truth The Breastplate of Righteousness The Shoes of Peace Now, it's time for us to pick up our shield. Ephesians 6:16, “In addition to all these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil.” Okay girls, let's learn about this shield and about those fiery arrows coming our way. Roman soldiers had 2 kinds of shields. One was a small, handheld shield. This is not the shield Paul is talking about. Paul is talking about the other type of shield – the one almost as big as a door. This shield was called the scutum (pronounced sk-U-tum). This shield, the sputum was about 4 feet high and 2 feet wide, made of layers of laminated wood, then covered with leather and bound with iron. The shield was big enough for a soldier to crouch behind and be completely protected. You've likely seen the movies where soldiers are carrying these large rectangular shields and when the enemy forces shoot their arrows, the soldiers stand together in formation with their door like shields held tightly ,forming a barrier all around them, in front of them and above them. That's the precise image of our faith as a shield. We are protected, but not only protected, we are enabled to move forward even while under attack. In this formation with their shields fully protecting them on all sides, the army wouldn't just crouch and endure the attack, they would MOVE FORWARD. Forward towards the objective. Forward towards the goal. Forward towards their mission. Forward, even while the enemy attacked. This is the power of our shield of faith. Now, what bout those arrows? Paul says the devil shoots “fiery arrows” at us. Soldiers in these days would often dip their arrows into a flammable liquid, then light them on fire before launching them at their enemy like a missile. AND THAT IS SATAN'S STRATEGY AGAINST US. Fiery, blazing arrows. His objective is to destroy you and he'll use every single thing at his disposal to do so. Don't be so naive to think he won't come after you. Scripture says he's “like a roaring lion”, and honey, lions don't care if you're cute, they don't care if you're happy, they don't care if you're rich, they don't care if you've got a whole family depending on you … lions want to kill you. Period. You have been under attack. No doubt, it's been happening. Even just this past week, fiery arrows were flying at you. Let me help you identify them: Arrow 1: Tempt you to sin Arrow 2: Get you to ignore the things that would help you Arrow 3: Make you miserable Arrow 4: Make you doubt Arrow 5: Make you settle Remember when you just ignored praying about it? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you didn't make time to open your Bible? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you thought it wasn't a big deal and you could hide it? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you felt so tired, so defeated and so discouraged that you just sat there? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you checked the box but didn't really give it your best? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you knew you should, but you didn't – Yip that was an arrow. Remember when you felt guilt and shame over it – Yip that was an arrow. Not to mention all the things you've been dealing with that make you scared, make you hurt, and make you question – All arrows. Now do you see the attacks you are continually facing? This is your every day reality. Girl, you are always under attack. That's why you need this shield of faith. To put it quite simply, the way you defend yourself from Satan's attacks is on a very practical level TRUST WHAT'S TRUE ABOUT GOD. Faith isn't just hearing about God – Faith isn't even just knowing about God – Faith is actively positioning God's promises between your vulnerability and the enemy's fiery assaults. The devil is going to shoot his fiery arrows to tempt you, distract you, discourage you, detour you and defeat you, but that big ol' shield of faith in God's promises is what you actively pick up and hold up to protect you. I know my God. I know his ways. I feel his presence. I receive his strength. I believe his promises. I trust my God. My sister, that is your defense! Faith is what will protect you when the fiery arrows are coming at you. Faith is what will help you advance even when you're under attack. Faith is not optional for this battle, it is essential! So really, what is faith? What a really hard thing to describe. If we're not careful, faith becomes nothing more than hoping or wishing. You know when you apply for a job and you'r pretty sure you're not going to get it because you're not even remotely qualified for it and someone says, “Well, you've got to have faith.” No, that's not faith. That's not what our Bible is talking about. That kind of faith is not a defense. When you're under attack, just wishing that something is true will never give you the defense you need. Let's give faith a real definition. I read about a missionary named John Paton – someone you've likely never heard of before. He was a Scottish missionary who went to the islands of the South Pacific in the 1800's to tell these remote people about Jesus for the first time. He wasn't welcome there. His wife and child died. Yet, he continued. He learned their language, then he set out to translate the entire Bible into their language so they could know about Jesus. While translating scripture, he got to Ephesians chapter 6 and he was stuck on verse 16, “Hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil.” Their language had no word for faith. Faith was non-existent in their world, without even a word for it. As John sat in his island hut, stuck on translating this word “faith”, a local man came running and and flopped himself in a chair. He said to John, “It's just so good to rest my whole weight in this chair.” And that's when John knew – that's what faith is. This is how he could explain faith to the islanders. Faith is resting your whole weight on God. With that translation, the islanders understood faith and they came to put their whole weight on God through Jesus. Faith is putting your whole weight on God. If God said it, then it's true, and I believe it. That is faith. Faith is believing what Jesus has done for us, believing what God says about us, and living it out because it's THE truth. That's a shield of faith. Protected from the attacks of the enemy and able to advance! Through the Bible, we know: • God has chosen us. Before this world even began, he predestined that we would be his girls. He chose us first, gave us the family name, and bestowed upon us all the privileges of being his daughters. • God has blessed us. In everything that God has done for us, his intention is to bless us and give us what we don't deserve. • God has sealed us. He put his mark on us saying we belong to him and we're protected by him. • God has promised us an inheritance. We are in line to inherit the kingdom of God and eternal life. Through Jesus, it's our guaranteed destiny. Girl, that's where you're heading and today you're one day closer! God has held absolutely nothing back from you. He's given his all, he's given his best. He's actively taking everything in your life and making it work together for eternally good purposes. And when you put your whole weight on that, you will be able to survive the attacks of the evil one. Not only survive, but advance! When the fiery arrows come flying at you, and they always do – When you're tempted to doubt, leaning towards fear, hurting and questioning, avoiding the very things that will help you most, wandering down paths not meant for you and knocking on the wrong doors – STOP AND REMEMBER WHAT YOU KNOW OF GOD. Remember his promises for you. Remember what he's already done for you through Jesus. But don't just think about those things, LIFT THEM UP. Lift up that shield of faith by actually leaning into what you KNOW IS TRUE ABOUT GOD. Put your full weight on him. You know what you need to do in that moment of wandering, wallowing, wondering and wavering … you need to have a good talk with yourself. Listen here, self, stop this depressed, unhappy nonsense. Stop this wavering. Stop this delaying. Stop wallowing. You stop it now. Stop letting this steal your praise. Stop letting this distance you from Jesus. Stop it. Put your full weight on God. Remember his promises. Lean on them now! It's not going to be easy, but we all need to do this. We need each other to do it for us. Preach to yourself. Remind yourself of God. Arrange your life so that you're in the path of grace as much as possible — reading Scripture daily, praying, surrounding yourself with the right people. Know where you're vulnerable. Look to God, who will grant you the strength that you need. Then put your whole weight in what we know to be true about God. Remember the Roman shield formation? It's one thing to be a single soldier with a shield. Something much better happens when we come together with faith. As we create a shield-wall of faith, we'll be able to advance even when we're under attack. That's why you and I are connected. That's why God has given us an Army of sisters here. We fully put our weight on God in this together and we move forward even while under attack. Where are you being attacked? What fiery arrows are coming your way? What truths about God can you lean into today? Take up your shield of faith!

On August 24, 410 AD, the Visigoths walked into Rome. They didn't break down the gates. They didn't storm the walls. The gates were opened from the inside — by slaves, by people who had been living under the Empire for years and had quietly stopped believing in it.The conventional story of the Sack of Rome is barbarian invasion. Fire and screaming. Civilization ending in a single night. That's the Hollywood version. The reality is quieter and worse.Rome wasn't murdered. It was hollowed out over more than two centuries by three forces that had nothing to do with barbarians.The first was money. The silver denarius had been debased so consistently that by 410 the coins were essentially worthless metal stamped with the emperor's face — a promise nobody believed anymore. Soldiers stopped showing up because they were being paid with garbage. Tax collectors demanded payment in gold and silver because the state's own currency wasn't worth taking.The second was borders. On the last day of 406, the Rhine froze and tens of thousands of Vandals, Suebi, and Alans walked across into Roman Gaul. The forts along the river were empty or close to it. The garrisons had been pulled back, stripped to fight civil wars in Italy, or simply never replaced. The frontier wasn't overrun. It was abandoned.The third was power. The Emperor Honorius was hiding in Ravenna — a swamp city with marsh walls — issuing laws that nobody enforced. When they told him Rome had fallen, he thought they meant his pet chicken, a bird he had named Roma. He had become emperor at eight years old. He had never led an army, never governed a province, never made a decision that wasn't filtered through palace bureaucrats more interested in their own survival than the Empire's.When Alaric's Visigoths arrived at the gates of Rome in August 410, the city's own slaves opened them.Rome didn't fall that day. Not really. The Visigoths left after three days. Honorius stayed in Ravenna. The Empire limped on for another 66 years. But everyone who mattered understood what 410 meant. The machine had been failing for centuries. The sack was just the paperwork catching up.Empires don't fall. They hollow out.

Tyler opens up to Urban Valor about Army basic training, the culture shock of infantry life, Fort Bragg, the 82nd Airborne, Baghdad in 2008, convoy missions, lead truck gunner danger, post-deployment drinking, losing friends, and the reality of veteran reintegration after combat.Tyler talks about joining the Army after seeing the war on TV, signing an infantry contract, losing his Ranger contract, becoming airborne, getting sent to Iraq, and realizing that some days survival came down to nothing more than a left turn or a right turn.But the most powerful part of this story may not be Iraq itself.It's what happened after.The alcohol. The car crashes. The murders. The friends who didn't make it home emotionally, even when they physically made it back. Tyler's story is a reminder that war does not always end when the deployment does.Chapters: 00:00 - Intro: Crazy Army Stories & Close Calls01:26 - Growing Up in Pennsylvania & Virginia02:21 - Playing in Bands & Learning Branding02:45 - Growing Up as a Cop's Son05:04 - Why Tyler Decided to Join the Military07:46 - Trying to Join the Marines08:26 - Joining the Army Infantry08:45 - Signing a Ranger Contract09:47 - Arriving at Army Basic Training10:51 - Finding Out He Was a Mortarman12:37 - Culture Shock in the Army17:09 - Drill Sergeants, Integrity & War Prep21:58 - Army Airborne School24:03 - Getting in Trouble With an Officer25:50 - The Army Friends Who Never Made It26:28 - Getting Sent to Fort Bragg28:34 - Assigned to the Support Battalion29:42 - Finally Getting Sent to the Line30:23 - Deploying to Baghdad, Iraq30:52 - EFPs, IEDs & Convoy Danger31:58 - Life as the Lead Truck Gunner34:37 - The Left Turn That Saved His Life36:26 - Living Like Every Day Was Extra37:19 - The Photo That Got Him in Trouble39:58 - Coming Home From Iraq40:42 - Losing Friends After Deployment42:18 - Why Coming Home Is So Hard43:35 - Drinking, DUI & Leaving the Army51:14 - Becoming a Police Officer51:57 - Working Night Shift in Orlando52:27 - The Baby Not Breathing Call57:05 - The McDonald's SWAT Call59:21 - The Adrenaline Crash After the Call1:00:37 - Why Police Work Wasn't Like the Military1:02:06 - Getting Kicked Off SWAT1:05:03 - The Clothing Line That Caused Problems1:06:20 - Starting the Anti-Hero Podcast1:08:11 - Turning the Podcast Into a Broadcast1:09:07 - Building a Community for the 99%1:10:23 - Why Regular Veterans Get Overlooked1:12:01 - Smoke Pit Humor & Veteran Culture1:18:07 - Lessons From Military & Police Work1:19:02 - What the Anti-Hero Broadcast Is Today1:20:25 - Final Thoughts on Regular Service Members

Host Dave Gebroe talks with podcast OG Joe Kennedy about the classic psych band's entire recorded output, with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release, including long-form interviews with both Johnny Echols and the members of Baby Lemonade, who've served as Love now for coming up on 35 years. 7 & 7 & 7 Is: The Definitive 21-Episode Story Of Arthur Lee & Love was consciously crafted to act as the ultimate repository of fact and opinion on one of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth, the almighty Love.  Part 18 covers the early 1990s to the early 2000s, a period which encompasses both the nadir and zenith of Arthur's career—that is, his stint in prison and his redemptive, post-release victory lap tour of Forever Changes—by which time Arthur's experienced the kind of adulation of which he'd been deserving since a large audience had last paid attention. Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The Origin Story: how Baby Lemonade wound up crossing paths and then working with Arthur Lee; What spurned the unfortunate early exit of Baby Lemonade bassist Henry Liu; Their first recording session together, and why it was an immediate red flag for the new backing band; The facts behind the evening that landed Arthur in prison; Why a man named Gene Kraut was almost entirely responsible for the rehabilitation of Arthur's reputation; The new batch of Arthur Lee material, and the central conundrum it posed; The big comeback falls apart during their homecoming show at Royce Hall; And an overview of Arthur & Baby Lemonade's “Girl On Fire” single.   CONNECT Join our Soldiers of Sound Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1839109176272153 Patreon:  https://www.patreon.com/discograffiti Podfollow: ⁠⁠https://podfollow.com/1592182331⁠⁠ YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClyaQCdvDelj5EiKj6IRLhw Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/discograffitipod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Discograffiti/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Discograffiti Order the Digital version of the METAL MACHINE MUZAK 2xLP (feat.

For more than 80 years, no-one knew what happened to a Soviet prisoner of war who escaped from the Nazis on the Channel Island of Jersey and spent the rest of World War Two hiding from the German occupiers with a local family, the Le Bretons. Known only by his first name, Bokejon, or simply Tom, he was one of about 2,000 Soviet prisoners and forced labourers brought to the island of Jersey to build Nazi fortifications. After liberation, Tom and the other surviving PoWs were sent back to the USSR and the Le Breton family, particularly their daughter Dulcie, always wondered what became of him. That was until BBC teams tracked down his descendants. BBC Russian's Olga Ivshina was one of the journalists who tracked him down. Political violence has been a problem in Kenya for decades now. It is often carried out by gangs of young people, known as 'goons', who are sponsored by politicians to threaten, disrupt and attack rivals. After the general election in 2007 over 1500 people were killed and with another election planned for 2027, there are fears violence could erupt again. Wycliffe Muia of BBC Africa has been looking into these politically sponsored violent gangs and what can be done to stop them.  Traditional fortune telling culture,  known as Saju, is popular in South Korea and has ancient roots. It uses data such as a person's birth year, month, day and hour to determine their future and in South Korea people still sometimes consult it before important life decisions like marriage, or seeking a new job. Now, the practice of Saju is beginning to be combined with AI technology and it's finding a wide audience both online and as a walk-in, more immersive experience. BBC Korean's Yujin Choi went to try it out. The Fifth Floor is at the heart of global storytelling on the BBC World Service, bringing you the best stories from journalists in the BBC's 43 language services. We're here to help you make sense of the stories making headlines around the world; to excite your curiosity and to get to grips with the facts. Recent episodes have investigated Russia's youth armies and how they make soldiers of Ukrainian children; featured the BBC team who were the first journalists to the site of the Nigerian school kidnappings and reflected the effects of internet blackouts in Iran, Uganda and India. If you want to know more about Venezuela's acting president, Delcy Rodriguez, and the legacy of Hugo Chavez; or how Vladimir Putin's network of deep cover spies operates; or why Donald Trump signed an executive order granting white South Africans asylum in the US, we have all those stories and more.This episode of The Documentary comes to you from The Fifth Floor, the show at the heart of global storytelling, with BBC journalists from all around the world.

David Eubank calls himself a missionary soldier. A former US Special Forces soldier, he is now an ordained Christian Reverend and founder of the Free Burma Rangers, a humanitarian group working in some of the world's most dangerous conflict zones. He prays before missions, runs towards gunfire, rescues the wounded, and says love is what keeps him there. But David's story is also morally complicated. He has carried dying children from battlefields. He has watched friends and colleagues die. And he has killed. Rajeev Gupta speaks to David about what it means to follow Jesus in a firefight. David reflects on his upbringing as a missionary child in Thailand, his years in the US military, and the call that took him into Burma's long-running civil war. He describes the moments when his faith and a desire for revenge came into conflict. But how does David know he is on the right side? How does he justify taking his wife and children into war zones? And how does he keep believing in God after seeing so much suffering? This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from Heart and Soul, exploring personal approaches to spirituality from around the world.

Jeff Eveleigh served his country. Then his country came for his family.A Canadian military veteran, Jeff was arrested during the freedom protests—for refusing a mask. But that was only the beginning. While he fought government overreach in the streets, his own daughter was caught in a system he believes is designed to sideline parents. Despite his objections, despite his concerns, medical professionals moved forward with a gender transition plan that shattered his relationship with his daughter—and his trust in every institution he once believed in.This is not a story about politics. It is a story about parental authority erased, medical ethics abandoned, and a government that no longer pretends to care what mothers and fathers think. Jeff recounts the phone calls, the treatment recommendations he was powerless to stop, and the moment he realized his daughter was being treated as a project of the state rather than a child of her parents.From COVID mandates to gender ideology to the collapse of conservative leadership willing to fight back, Jeff's story is a warning. Canada is not an anomaly. It is a blueprint. And if parents do not wake up, their children will be next.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

The Man That I Would Become by Victor L Bretting Brettingtexanranch.com https://www.amazon.com/Man-That-Would-Become/dp/B0GVPR4SC9 Raised by a hardworking single mother whose grit, sacrifice, and faith shaped his life, Victor Bretting learned early that perseverance, responsibility, and character are forged through adversity. An eighth-generation Texan descended from Stephen F. Austin’s original Old 300 families, Victor began his career as a water boy on a nuclear power plant construction project at nineteen years old. Over the next fifty years, he worked his way through the ranks of the construction industry, eventually retiring as a vice president. Along the way, he became an internationally recognized outdoorsman, setting multiple world hunting records across six continents. But The Man That I Would Become is not a book about success. It is a book about becoming. Through stories of faith, failure, leadership, family, hunting, adversity, and personal growth, Victor shares the hard-earned lessons that shaped his life. From football fields and construction sites to hunting camps around the world, each chapter reveals the struggles, setbacks, victories, and moments of grace that helped form the man he would become. This inspiring memoir explores what it means to take responsibility, persevere through hardship, lead with integrity, and trust God’s plan when the road ahead is uncertain. It is a story for anyone who has ever faced adversity, questioned their purpose, or wondered what truly matters in life. Today, Victor and his family continue that mission through Bretting Texan Ranch (B-Tex Ranch) in North Texas, where wounded veterans, terminally ill children, and young men seeking purpose are welcomed to experience faith, fellowship, and the healing power of the outdoors. The Man That I Would Become is more than a memoir. It is a reminder that life’s greatest achievement is not measured by titles, wealth, or accomplishments, but by becoming the person God created you to be. This is Victor’s story and an invitation to visit the place where it all comes together: B-Tex Ranch. About the author Victor Bretting is an 8th-generation Texan part of the original Old 300 families who settled this land under Stephen F. Austin. He started his career as a water boy at a nuclear power plant at nineteen is an executive nearly fifty years later. He holds multiple world hunting records across six continents. At his ranch in North Texas, he opens the gates to combat veterans, terminally ill children, and young men who need to meet God. This is his story. And it is an invitation to visit the place where it all comes together at The Bretting Texan Ranch (B-Tex Ranch). With nearly five decades in the construction industry, he built his career from the ground up—earning every lesson through long days, hard work, and real responsibility. That same grit carried over into the outdoors, where he became a lifelong hunter and international sportsman, harvesting many species across five continents and earning multiple world records and top honors in the hunting community. Victor is the owner of Bretting Texan Ranch (B-Tex Ranch) in North Texas, where he has created more than a hunting operation. He's built a place where people come to reconnect with the land, with each other, and with something greater than themselves. His ranch stands as a reflection of his values: hard work, stewardship, faith, and treating people like family. Victor is deeply committed to giving back through organizations like Hunting with Soldiers, which brings combat veterans into the outdoors to find healing from the weight of war, and Cross Trail Outfitters, a faith-based ministry dedicated to guiding young men and women through outdoor experiences rooted in Christ. At his ranch, these aren't just events—they are moments of restoration, mentorship, and purpose. Whether it's a veteran finding peace in the stillness of the land or a young hunter learning discipline and faith for the first time, Victor believes the outdoors is one of the last places where real transformation still happens.

In this episode, James interviews historian Edward Hagerty about his new book Soldier of the South: Lieutenant General Richard H. Anderson at War and Peace. Richard Anderson was one of the highest-ranking generals in the Confederate Army, but he is little known today. Despite this relative anonymity, Anderson's life and career are fascinating and merit a retelling. In this interview, Hagerty gives James a brief overview of Anderson's compelling story.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When we picture the American Revolution, we picture battles. But for the men and women who actually lived and fought in it, the Revolution was also a job with mess rotations, night watches, short rations, and children underfoot. Historians Eugene Procknow, Gabriel Neville, and Thomas Sobol pull back the curtain on everyday military life during the War for Independence. They discuss how the armies were structured, what soldiers actually ate, what camp followers endured, and how soldiers found humanity amid grinding hardship. You'll hear about a Black Continental soldier who had eaten nothing but bread for eleven days, and was still writing letters home that went unanswered. A Georgia soldier who agreed to fight for the British just to escape a prison ship, then deserted and marched across two states to rejoin Nathanael Greene's army. And you'll discover why John Adams believed the most dangerous moment of the Revolution wasn't a battle at all.Show Notes: https://www.benfranklinsworld.com/403 EPISODE OUTLINE00:00:00  Introduction00:05:44 Structure of the British and Continental Armies00:10:33 Militia, German Soldiers, and Indian Allies00:20:43 Everyday Life in the American War for Independence00:25:80 Camp Followers00:33:10 Downtime in the Army00:36:59 Soldiers' Letters00:46:00 Food Procurement & Supply Chains00:50:27 Supplementing Rations00:55:34 War Mementoes & Plunder00:58:36 Medical Care in the Army01:08:07 The Revolution in ContextRECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODES
