Podcasts about those weird veterans

IN THIS PARTICULAR EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Bruce Wayne and Batman are two different personalities but both exist in the same man and each serves a purpose. The modern American warrior has the struggle of having to be a hardened fighter when deployed and balance it with being a civilized family man when they are home. Duane France talks to Jeff about the difference between these alter egos and split personality disorders. They also talk about how transitioning veterans are treated like dysfunctional lunatics and how some actually are. This episode balances the serious nature of mental health and some light-hearted discussion about the other man that our combat veterans can be. Duane had some connectivity issues in the first few minutes of the show that makes his audio a little rough. This clears up quickly and does not affect the sound for the majority of the show.

SUMMARY:   Changing Hearts & Minds Podcast host Jeff and Head Space and Timing Podcast host Duane France team up to discuss the alter ego that combat veterans have. The struggles of not being self-aware and the dangers of the modern world for those who struggle with both of them.   IN THIS PARTICULAR EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:   Bruce Wayne and Batman are two different personalities but both exist in the same man and each serves a purpose. The modern American warrior has the struggle of having to be a hardened fighter when deployed and balance it with being a civilized family man when they are home.   Duane France talks to Jeff about the difference between these alter egos and split personality disorders. They also talk about how transitioning veterans are treated like dysfunctional lunatics and how some actually are.    This episode balances the serious nature of mental health and some light-hearted discussion about the other man that our combat veterans can be. Duane had some connectivity issues in the first few minutes of the show that makes his audio a little rough.
