Description

A great story can transport you to another place far across the globe. It can let you feel the way heat strikes from that particular latitude, smell the smoke of foreign trees burning, or experience the awkward confluence of two cultures meeting. To pull you in is the nature of a story. This podcast’s purpose is to reveal places you don't know and are not familiar while with, ultimately showing you lives and perspectives that are not your own. Expect to be challenged, to possibly breakthrough some of the walls surrounding your opinions, and to grow a little closer to the world around you.

With the fall of Kabul, thousands of US Allies are desperately trying to make their way to sanctuary, away from vindictive hands of the Taliban.

All You Can Do Is Laugh

Be Better, Dude

2021/04/15

The release of the Fort Hood Report is a significant event in the history of the US Army. The impacts of the findings are recommendations have not yet been realized, but that is not stopping Scott Stephens from taking proactive steps to build a culture capable of preventing Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment by shifting the narrative and focus of the real problem. Listen as we talk through how he is accomplishing this difficult work.

Shots! Shots! Shots!

2021/02/24

To Close A Chasm

2021/02/12

The Civil-Military divide is something many people talk about, but not many have an answer of how to close it. The real answer probably isn't as sexy or easy as anyone would like. It's millions of conversations between veterans and civilians that help relate the military experience and bring our society closer to the realities of their fighting force. Rob talks about how to find a middle ground with the people vets won't think will understand and how to start trying to share your stories in a way people will understand.

Like a Leader

2020/12/22

The subject of leadership is chock-full of “fresh ideas” which are just old lessons retold with a different spin and “experts” who have more anecdotes than a backwoods preacher. That is why it is refreshing when you find research-based concepts that challenge dusty, dogmatic beliefs in this 366 billion dollar industry. Charn McAllister joins to discuss the positive outcomes of likeability and why leaders committed to serving their subordinates must understand politics.

War and Flip Flops

2020/10/30

Combat Flip Flops was born of an opportunity to help others and create the conditions to truly improve the lives of those who live in some of the most difficult places to feel safe and secure. That opportunity might not have come about unless the guys who seized had served in these kinds of places. Matt Griffin talks about how his experiences helped prepare him to build this company on a foundation of serving others.

The Caregiver's Journey

2020/08/26

Ben was Special Forces Alpha Team Leader, on deployment in Afghanistan, when he stepped on an IED. A moment that irrevocably changed his and Gina’s lives. They tell about their experiences leading up to, through, and in the wake of this devastating injury. Their journey is amazing and their strength is awe-inspiring.

A Mastermind Prankster

2020/07/30

I think we all have this type of person in our lives, you know, the creative person who is always birthing incredibly clever ideas out into the world at every stage of their life. For me, that guy is Mike Nemeth. I’ve known Mike since my first year at West Point, and he has been churning out hilarious, interesting, and inspiring projects since we met. Mike’s leadership and nerve through the pandemic have been exemplary, so much so that I needed to interview Mike to bottle some of it up for everyone. We talk about failing, struggling, picking up, adapting, and executing violently even in uncertainty.

Crisis Gone Viral

2020/05/06

John is a former Special Forces Officer with a long list of accolades and incredible assignments, among them is time spent on the White House Staff of the, then, Homeland Security Council. We discuss the current pandemic through that lens, as well as the multitude of leadership lessons that will be learned as a result of what has happened. Filled with incredible stories and lessons learned, this is a prescient episode.

Mesopotamia

2020/04/16

Sometimes people with very similar experiences come away with different outlooks, it's no different with war. In this episode I talk with a fellow veteran about our experiences in combat and how that brought him to an anti-war stance. It's an important conversation to have and I know you'll agree.

Crawl, Walk, Fly

2020/03/27

The stories of the people around us are many times the most captivating. Come listen to Bill Kemp, a two-tour Vietnam Veteran who got to see the country both on foot in the Infantry and from the Air as a Helicopter Pilot. His stories are absolutely incredible.
