We talked about the eye-opening conversation that led Chris to face his truth and how it helped boost his career. We delve into Crhis' transition from working with the Knicks to his current position at The Players' Tribune, his approach to marketing and branding, what makes a good coach, and how we can imprint an athlete's mindset into our personal and professional lives.In This Episode, You Will Learn:About Chris' truth and how it changed his career (5:15)Chris' view on marketing, building awareness, and his experience working with the Knicks and The Players' Tribune (8:21)About athletes' hard work, pursuit for perfection, and their transferable skills (12:41)First Impressions:Kyrie (16:29)Family (16:35)Athlete (16:39)Covid (16:44)Marriage (16:49)James Dolan (16:55)Legacy (17:00)Chris Bernard (17:05)Resources:The Players' Tribune websiteConnect with Chris:LinkedInInstagram See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Here is the text of the email about the Vietnam Wall. I have not verified these stats, but the sentiment is the same even if the numbers are somewhat different. If you are interested, I tell more about my father's story in S01E06. A little history most people will never know. Veterans statistics of the Vietnam Memorial Wall. There are 58,267 names now listed on that polished black wall, including those added in 2010. The names are arranged in the order in which they were taken from us by date and within each date the names are alphabetized. It is hard to believe it is 63 years since the first casualty. The first known casualty was Richard B. Fitzgibbon, of North Weymouth, Mass, listed by the Department of Defense as having been killed on June 8, 1956. His name is listed on the Wall with that of his son, Marine Corps LCpl. Richard B. Fitzgibbon III, who was killed on Sept. 7, 1965. There are three sets of fathers and sons on the Wall. Of all the names listed, 39,996 were 22 years-old or younger; 8,283 were 19 years-old. The largest age group, 33,103 were 18 years-old; 12 soldiers were 17 years-old; 5 soldiers were 16 years-old. One soldier, PFC Dan Bullock, was 15 years-old. 997 soldiers were killed on their first day in Vietnam; 1,448 soldiers were killed on their last day in Vietnam. There are 31 sets of brothers are on the Wall; 31 sets of parents lost two of their sons. 54 soldiers attended Thomas Edison High School in Philadelphia. 8 Women who nursed the wounded are on the Wall. 244 soldiers were recipients of the Medal of Honor during the Vietnam War; 153 of them are listed on the Wall. Beallsville, Ohio with a population of 475 lost 6 of her sons. West Virginia had the highest casualty rate per capita in the nation. There are 711 West Virginians on the Wall. The Marines of Morenci, AZ - They led some of the scrappiest high school football and basketball teams that the little Arizona copper town of Morenci (pop 5,058) had ever known and cheered. They enjoyed roaring beer busts. In quieter moments, they rode horses along the Coronado Trail, stalked deer in the Apache National Forest . And in the patriotic camaraderie typical of Morenci's mining families, the 9 graduates of Morenci High enlisted as a group in the Marine Corps. Their service began on Independence Day, 1966. Only 3 returned home. The Buddies of Midvale, UT - LeRoy Tafoya, Jimmy Martinez, Tom Gonzales were all boyhood friends and lived on three consecutive streets in Midvale, Utah, on Fifth, Sixth and Seventh avenues. They lived only a few yards apart. They played ball at the adjacent sandlot ball field And they all went to Vietnam. In a span of 16 dark days in late 1967, all three would be killed. LeRoy was killed on Wednesday, Nov. 22. Jimmy died less than 24 hours later on Thanksgiving Day. Tom was killed assaulting the enemy on Dec. 7, 1967. The most deaths for a single day was on January 31, 1968 when 245 service members were killed. The most deaths for a single month was May 1968, where 2,415 service members died. To those who survived the war, and to the families of those who did not, we see the faces, we feel the pain that these numbers created We are haunted with these numbers because they were our friends, fathers, husbands, wives, sons and daughters There are no noble wars, just noble warriors. https://youtu.be/RnE16bCU1yE --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/verimourspeaks/support
