Matt Pine is training Marines to use 3D printing in the field and helping deploy the technology globally for the United States Marine Corps. Working primarily with desktop machines, he focuses on MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul), improvised repair, and delivering parts to where servicemen and women need them most. Matt talks about the needs of the Marine Corps, and we explore the differences between 3D printing at Camp Lejeune and in a forward operating area. We discuss which parts are needed, what materials are required, and how 3D printing can be scaled effectively. We also learn how Matt trains Marines to 3D print and which Marines can and should be trained in this process. His experiences overseas and in conflict zones give him a sanguine view of what is needed and what 3D printing can realistically deliver. This episode was brought to you by Continuum Powders.
The release of documents by Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, has finally exposed how, when, and who put together the elaborate Russia collusion hoax that hobbled President Donald Trump in his first administration. What is not well known is how the hoax was part of a larger plan by the Deep State to embroil the US in endless wars while gutting its manufacturing industries, thereby facilitating China's rise to global hegemony.Key Deep State actors were following a script given to them by hostile extraterrestrials described as Draco Reptilians and Orion Grays, who were allied with a breakaway German group called the 4th Reich. In the 1950s, during the administration of President Dwight Eisenhower, it became clear that MJ-12, the group running extraterrestrial projects, had gone rogue and had become incredibly powerful through the reverse-engineered technologies it had acquired. Eisenhower alluded to the danger posed by MJ-12 and warned Americans and the world about it.In addition, Eisenhower created a safety valve in the form of a special section of the US Marine Corps whose responsibility was to monitor MJ-12 operations and intervene if the American Republic was ever threatened. That intervention occurred with the recruitment of Trump to run for the Presidency in 2016, and efforts to expose the Deep State through their attempts to remove him from power by a hoax Russia collusion narrative.Trump's attempt to start a peace dialogue with Russia and to stop further Middle East wars from happening has neutralized the Deep State's efforts to create a Gog and Magog End Times war, and the appearance of fake extraterrestrial saviors. Gabbard's revelation makes clear who the chief Deep State culprits are, thereby making it possible for their arrest and the end of Deep State influence all over the planet. This will make possible an official disclosure announcement of friendly extraterrestrials working with the Trump administration to usher in a Star Trek future.Join Dr. Salla on Patreon for Early Releases, Webinar Perks and More.Visit https://Patreon.com/MichaelSalla/

John Crawley was born in New York to Irish immigrant parents, and moved to Ireland as a young teenager to attend school. Inspired there by the struggle for Irish freedom against British rule in the North of Ireland, he returned to America to receive military training in an elite, special forces “Recon” unit of the US Marine Corps. Afterward, he returned to Ireland to volunteer for the IRA and conducted many missions, including gun-running from the US, working with Boston criminal head Whitey Bulger. Crawley would be captured and imprisoned twice, both in Ireland and in England, while on major missions, done in both times by informers. He is now retired and married with a family, and lives in County Monaghan, Ireland.

What if the path to freedom, success, and a powerful identity isn't found in endless emotional processing, but in a simple, calculated equation?In this episode of Catalyst Talks, I sit down with MARINE Neal Conlon, a US Marine Corps veteran, corporate strategist, and elite coach, to dismantle the stories we tell ourselves about why we're stuck. We explore how to strategically choose your identity, the surprising utility of money, and why before you have an emotional problem, you almost always have a math problem.

The discussion begins by unpacking the meaning of assured position, navigation, and timing in a contested environment, and why it has emerged as a strategic priority for modern armed forces in an era of GPS-denied operations.

The pair then deep dive into Advanced Navigation's proprietary AI-powered deterministic fusion models – capable of achieving up to 10x greater accuracy – and the operational advantages they offer for defence primes and front-line users alike. Abdiel provides insights into the company's successful integration efforts with leading defence primes and how their approach is tailored for mission-critical scenarios.

The future battlespace promises to be complex, unpredictable, and multifaceted. To answer its challenges, military professionals must think deeply and innovatively about warfare's evolving character and how to gain decisive advantage across a hotly contested global landscape.

Meredith is easily one of the most interesting and unusual people we've ever had on the podcast, and her story is a testament to just how much small-town living appeals to all kinds of people, even people that you may not expect. This episode is all about how Meredith–a Marin County, California native–found herself in rural South Dakota, and what we can do to make our small towns more welcoming for all different kinds of people who want to make their lives here. About Meredith: Meredith McMurray was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, CA. She was home-schooled for all but one of her twelve grade school years. Then, in 2006, she enlisted into the US Marine Corps at age 18 and served four years active duty, deploying twice during that time. After an Honorable Discharge, Meredith began an exploration into the world of health and healing practices such as yoga, neuromuscular therapy, meditation, self-inquiry, and performing arts! She began learning Aerial Acrobatics in 2012, at first as a hobby. By 2016, Meredith began making a living off of teaching and performing Aerial Acrobatics. In May 2019, Meredith was presented with an opportunity to take over ownership of Aerial Arts Fairfax (IG account no longer managed), a local beloved Aerial Academy in Fairfax, CA. The offer was for Meredith to purchase the business and facilitate over 200 actively enrolled students to continue their training—or watch it close and cease to exist due to the original founder opting to retire earlier in 2019. Out of pure love for the art form (and a lack of awareness of what was to come), Meredith took a risk and invested five figures of borrowed money into purchasing the business. Aerial Arts Fairfax had eight great months under Meredith's leadership, and then March 2020 came along... Obliterated by the statewide lockdowns and dysfunctional social practices implemented by the majority in the San Francisco Bay Area, Meredith consciously chose to no longer serve that community with her business nor her physical presence. Meredith had heard former Governor Kristi Noem say, "All South Dakotans are Essential." So, after sixteen total months of fighting to regain any sense of meaning or purpose in California, Meredith packed her Prius and drove to South Dakota with no plan. Once she arrived, Meredith was able to shake hands with Gov. Kristi Noem and thank her for standing up for the people of South Dakota and their occupations. Then, Meredith was able to work a seasonal job in South Dakota and earn enough to pay herself back from the five-figure financial wound created by the State of California. After that, Meredith moved across state lines four times before eventually returning back to South Dakota, where she has been living for the last 2.5 years. By no means is Meredith walking off into the sunset... She continues to wake up every morning wondering how she can best serve the community, make real friends, and express important messages in whatever form. Please enjoy the speech Meredith recently gave at the Black Hills Aerial Cup: https://youtu.be/Y15XccuXMFw?si=IGgYzsz8jtsfQqpA In this episode, we cover: How Meredith went from Marin County, CA to small-town South Dakota What she loves about small towns What she'd love for her own small-town experience Resources Mentioned: Freedom Fest: https://freedomfest.com/ Speech for anyone who's ever felt "non-essential”: https://youtu.be/Y15XccuXMFw?si=IGgYzsz8jtsfQqpA Meredith's website: www.DanglingDance.com Get in touch: DanglingDance@gmail.com Small-Town Shout-Out!
