More than my war stories Podcast

Rob joins the podcast to talk about his time in the Army prior to Desert Storm and returning to the Army during GWOT. This was a fun interview because Rob has experience from the "old" Army as a reserve troop and coming back into serve during GWOT. From pissing off Stormin Norman to intentionally walking into a hyena's den of bad people Rob has led an interesting career.  Also 10% o...

Mitchell, David, Logan, and Gunny join the podcast to talk about the differences experienced between veterans when joining the civilian world. This is a good one and was a lot of fun. Great arguments and discussions about service members sharing their story's, super powers, and independent parties. All while Gunny refills his cup and Logan inspects his gear. When will Logan retire? Will Logan...

On this episode Ben is joined by Gunny Brent, Austin, and CJ. Gunny went to sleep because all the years in the Marine Corps sapped his energy. We discuss the differences between working with veterans and civilians. Does Gunny have ADHD, probably. What was your "Ah ha moment" when you got out and realized that the civilian world required a different methodology to navigate? https://www.ro...

David and Mitchell join the podcast to talk about Austin, is buying cheap tools cheap anymore, and what is leadership? How do you add value to your team and are you a team builder? Rolex 24 is coming up in a couple of months and I can't wait. 

Logan and CJ rejoin the podcast. We banter about things. No idea what those things were. Surprise episode of fun.  https://www.roguedynamics.com/

Austin and CJ join the podcast. We talked about what this week means to each of us, why the Marines love each other so much, Austin admits that the Department of the Navy is better and much less. What are your go to pew pews for the end of the world? Did this podcast ruin my son's entry into service? Is America willing to do whatever it takes to defend itself? Who knows. Im old and my friends...

CJ, David, and Brent join the podcast. We talk about nothing for hours and have a damn good time with it. Should a person joining the military ruck as a primary exercise or are there better ways to prepare yourself? Is leadership in America a failure currently at all levels? Do you think that hunting is sustainable if the zombie apocalypse occurs? We fail to answer this and other things. Links to...

Former Army Cav Scout and author of Frost Rising "CJ" joins the podcast again to talk about what led him to becoming an author. A soldier who has served during an interesting part of America's military history and managed to thrive in a changing Army. We talk about his past, his service, and his current life as an author and how he became an author. Did he steal an SF vehicle while...

Logan, David, and I discuss Ahsoka season 1, our thoughts on if there will be a season 2, was it good, what is up with Disney's universe building and more. Fun episode with good people. Hit us up on instagram @Morethanmywarstories

Gunny Brent joins the podcast to talk guns, the popularity of the AR platform, daily carries, and more. We also chat about overseas trips as a first timer and my worries as a parent of a soldier. Good episode and always fun.

Mitchell and Austin join the podcast today to talk about movies, games, and where we think society will take these over the next few years. Which was your favorite nerd series? Favorite Batman? Why can't DC make a decent movie? And then we talk Ashoka, all spoilers. Fun episode with two of my favorite people. 

CJ joins the podcast to talk about his new book Frost Rising which is available on Amazon and in stores such as Barnes and Noble and Target. Great book, fun read, and an interesting perspective for this style of fiction. We don't give away the ending but do highlight characters, our thoughts on how he developed the book. Also joining is a great friend and interesting character in real life, L...

Absolute blast of an episode with Austin, Mason, and David. This one went of the rails from the beginning. Getting screwed over in the military, only fans girls, the differences between mil and civ good ole boys clubs. We chatted about it all. And how ghey can the military be? Ask a Marine. Blast of fun and dumb stuff. 

Our buddy David joins the podcast for the very first time. David was an Army medic which means he's dealt with a lot of weirdo's. He loves them still. And we only give him a lot of grief for it. But he's a great friend and answers the phone. In this episode we chat about his army time, how he was lucky to meet awesome people like me in college, and why our friends don't know ho...

Chuck joins the podcast for his story on being a fixed wing Marine, Wake Island shenanigans, and joining the Blue Angels. Great discussion with an interesting Marine. Also the Marines get some better billets than the Army. Why were Koreans crashing on Wake Island? How do Marines not end up on a boat? All this and less on this episode of More than my war stories.

Got a chance to sit down with Gunny Brent and catch up on the past few weeks. Talk about vets at a wedding and how ghey we make things. Seabass is ready to get the hell out of AIT. Gunny has a new gun, go figure right. Did you know that someone on the podcast secretly wants to be a Ranger? All that and less, here, at More Than My War Stories.

So Tiffany joined the podcast and so did Mason who can't remember why he joined. Sometimes it fun and sometimes sad. But that is exactly how life is aint it? Listen in and let us know if you also were ever stuck at Fort Polk or talking to Marines?

Gunny Brent joins the podcast again so that we can argue about how much better the Army is than the Marines or something like that. Is boot camp tough enough? Does shared suffering make the military more cohesive? Who did what at the farm? 

Mason brought another Marine over because apparently Marines love talking about themself. Alek joins the podcast, he's from Colorado and likes long walks with wrenches, fixing airplanes, wrenching on stuff. Mason drags us into his eccentric mind of questions with no answers. I'm here to bring up videos you can't see and talk about how much better the Army is to everyone else. Even M...

So we continued Mason's story but failed to tell Mason's story. I don't know where we went but somehow we ended on the value of money. It is what it is and we enjoyed it. I'm sure that you'll disagree with our completely correct and righteous takes on life, liberty, and the pursuit of whatever we wanna do. Also, Navy sucks. Go Army! 

Things have changed and here is Mason, another Marine doing Marine things.  There is an answer to why we've been quiet. Life is good and I missed podcasting do please be patient. 

Ben was day drinking. Matt and Austin join as we discuss the very delicate topic of veteran greetings. We dive into a smart discussion on Star Wars and possibly a recent court case. Matt gets afraid to add his two cents and has no memory of the discussion.  

My friend Todd joins into the discussion to share his experience in bootcamp, A school, Tijuana, and what life as parent is like. Why did we do gorlick,  I don't know but that's a thing we did. Todd is a good man and better father than I am so lets listen in on how his kids turned out.  The Navy isn't the Army but lets not hold that against him. Go Army Navy Sucks.

Matt and Austin join me to talk all thing Maverick, Obi Wan, leadership, and what we hope for in 2022. Listen, its us nerding out about things we like. Maybe you like it, maybe you don't. It's the interwebs so if you disagree feel free to email us at youropinionisjunk@hotmail.noonecares.com and we will immediately ignore you.

Trust me just make it through the first 45 minutes of the podcast. Life sucks and then there is Dave's last couple of years have been a roller coaster of problems and emotions. As bad as life may be it can always get better and sometimes just airing it out there can make all the difference in the world. This is Dave's airing out and it is unedited because I don't feel that it should...
