Regular G.I. Joe
Come on the journey with 2 veterans that have blossomed into a friendship as we have genuine talks sharing our adventures in the military, talks about veterans, funny stories, and every day life. Mike and I established this podcast to portray to other veterans or other people to be able to reach out to their friends, family, or even their wingman and have authentic conversations. The art of having a conversation is becoming extinct since the advancements of technology. We want to provide a platform that shows the art of conversing is not gone.
