With Veterans Day coming up and everyone exhausted from the election, we thought we'd offer a break from the news. Here's a sample of our latest episode of TBIY about The Jeep. Known well by veterans, it's “The Car That Saved The World”.The Jeep isn't just a car, it's a cult: inspiring clubs, meetups, even its own “Jeep Wave.” From cameos in M*A*S*H to Mean Girls, the Jeep's been ranked the most patriotic brand in America for 20-straight years (sorry, Coke). But did you know that Jeep actually started as a group project? Learn how three fiercely competitive rivals came together for some emergency teamwork to help Allied Forces win WWII, how a freelance designer almost didn't get the credit, and how its name was (maybe) inspired by a mythical character from Popeye. JEEP isn't just the world's 1st 4x4… it literally saved the world. Jump in Yetis, we're going exploring… Find out why JEEP is the best idea yet.To hear the rest of the episode, Subscribe to our new (2nd) show… The Best Idea Yet: Wondery.fm/TheBestIdeaYetLinksEpisodes drop weekly.

With Veterans Day tomorrow, we chatted with the Commissioner for the Minnesota Department of Veteran Affairs Brad Lindsay on the weekend's festivities for Veterans Day.

With Veterans Day a few days away, we wanted to share the stories of more military veterans. Dr. Clint Pearman is the first of three veterans we've spoken to recently. Clint is a thirty-one year veteran of the United States Marine Corps and a holder of two doctoral degrees. Clint was born in Long Island, NY. Then his family moved to Florida when he was thirteen. He played a lot of sports growing up and then enlisted in the USMC when he was eighteen. He wanted to be a pilot, but became an infantryman and he and Paul discussed his career in the USMC. He currently works with people with traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and is certified and a specialist in the area of TBI. They talked about his journey in education and how that has led to a never ending quest to learn. Clint finished by talking about his family … his very big family!

This week I talk with Bob Bryant of Mission K9 Rescue. With Veterans Day approaching this was a fitting episode to talk about the animals that have served our country. Typically, the military has viewed working dogs as tools for their work and once they are unable to continue working they are often forgotten. However, Bob and I discuss how Mission K9 is working to give these animals the retirement they deserve. Mission K9 works to bring dogs back home after their service has ended overseas and then finds them the most appropriate home, whether it be with their former handler or another family. To learn more about Mission K9 and how you can support their work go to https://missionk9rescue.org or @missionk9rescue on social media. Thanks for listening!

This episode is in commemoration of Veterans Day. GTRI has a longstanding and deep partnership with the military community. More than 90% of GTRI's research awards come from the Department of Defense, the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Army, the U.S. Marine Corps, and the U.S. Navy. Therefore, it is fitting that military-focused events and holidays are prominent on GTRI's calendar. With Veterans Day around the corner, we wanted to talk through some leadership and mentoring questions from a female perspective.  This podcast episode has been developed to help understand the "ins and outs" of professional development within the United States military, Georgia Tech, and GTRI. The guest in this episode is Dr. Anne Clark – Chief Scientist with the Air National Guard Programs Division (ANGPD) at GTRI and a retired USAF colonel. She helps provide content to our world that we can use for better leadership guidance and professional opportunities.  We have developed some commonly asked questions derived from LinkedIn comments.  In this recording, we will be attributing the questions to comments inspired by contributors from the LinkedIn platform to the individuals wanting to hear Dr. Clark's perspective on this topic.   Below are the time stamps and contributors that best represent the question being asked.

This episode really hits home. With Veterans Day recently passing, it brought to light an urgent situation that the military is facing. I personally wanted to take the time to inform those who are also not aware of this dire situation in addition to keeping us informed to not only better assist our community but better serve our Veteran's & active military clientele.

With Veterans Day being last Friday...television networks and sports leagues are taking the time to honor the brave men and women in our military. During the LSU/Arkansas game Saturday...ESPN took time in the fourth quarter to honor the military. The problem was...ESPN completely botched the opportunity. We reveal and react to ESPN honoring the military. We discuss how this distasteful method likely wasn't done purposefully...but shows how out-of-touch ESPN can be. We look at how ESPN has honored other causes...and the time and effort spent by ESPN honoring those. We question why this same time and effort couldn't be spent on our military.

Today we sit down with Gretchen Smith, founder of Code of Vets. With Veterans Day right around the corner, we thought it was high time we talked about Code of Vets, a non-profit organization which works to raise money through small personal donations and deliver it directly to veterans in need. Code of Vets is a 501c3 that exclusively uses social media to raise donations and awareness for veterans in crisis and/or in need. With more than 340,000 followers just on Twitter (they have a following on Facebook as well), Code of Vets has raised over $2MILLION in two years to help thousands of veterans with suicide prevention, housing, food, clothing, medical and transportation just to name a few — with only 2% operating costs — nearly every penny that came in went right back out to veterans. Veterans receive near immediate care/assistance upon request because of their unique platform. Code of Vets has caught the attention of celebrities and public figures alike including Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, Sidney Powell, Larry The Cable Guy, Oak Ridge Boys, Scott Baio, Herschell Walker and Charlie Daniels. The inspiration for Code of Vets came from Sgt. Danny E. Smiley, Gretchen's dad and Airborne Angel. He was a Bronze Star Medal recipient, a 100 percent disabled Vietnam Veteran - exposed to agent orange. He lost his battle with PTSD at age 57.

Attorneys married into the military find themselves moving around the country or overseas every couple of years, which presents a problem in a practice still largely geographically fixed.

Of the 18 million military veterans living in America today, about one-fourth of them with a service-connected disability. For post 9/11 veterans, that percentage increases to 41 percent. With Veterans Day 2019 approaching, our attention turned to what state services are available to these brave men and women who served our country. The National Conference of State Legislatures recently released a report, “A Path to Employment for Veterans with Disabilities.” It examines an extensive array of employment services and benefits designed to improve the lives of military veterans with disabilities. State legislatures are taking actions to assist veterans with disabilities, who often face obstacles when they compete and apply for jobs. Our guests outline several state actions, including employment preferences, career development, job placement, apprentice programs, on-the-job training, occupational licensing and tax incentives for employers. Our guests today are Jim Reed and Jennifer Schultz, the authors of this report. They both staff the Military and Veterans Affairs Task Force at NCSL. Transcription of Episode 78
