What I believe to be our longest, and potentially, funniest podcast to date. Randy was joined by former coworker, and recently retired Special Operations Coxswain, Chris Matheson. Chris talks to us about his experience leading up to his time in the military, how he learned about JTF2, all things Maritime Counter Terrorism, and the very real consequences of his job. Chris was medically released this year due to TBI-related issues, and opened up about his struggles, and what people in his situation can do to help themselves. Hilarious at times, incredibly heavy at other times. Big thank you to Chris for taking the time to tell his story.

We have been so lucky to sit down with human beings who are real-life heroes, and Ben Besant was no exception. This was, quite frankly, one of the most powerful and emotionally heavy podcasts we've ever had.

A big thank you to the fine folks at OTAB who helped arrange this meeting, and to Ben for taking the time to share his story with us.

Please, if you are able, go show Ben the support he deserves:

This one is a bit of a step outside of the ordinary for us. Randy is joined by Professor John Dunn and his daughter Anna Dunn, where they discuss the process of dealing with her cancer diagnosis, and subsequent recovery and return to sport in sitting volleyball. This was a fairly emotional ride, and hearing John's perspective was humbling to say the least.
