More than my war stories Podcast

Society EN ↓ 123 episodes

A group of veterans and our friends sit around drinking beer and talk about whatever comes up. Sometimes it's all glory day tales and others we are talking about ghost stories or our favorite movies. We will definitely say incredibly useless facts and if you're veteran we hope to make you feel like your back in barracks talking nonsense with your buddies. If you aren't a veteran we hope you get a better insight into who we are and that there is more to being a veteran than just what you see on TV. Opinions are our own and do not represent any entity a contributor is associated with.

Episodes

Episode #22 Welcome the rogues 08.05.2022

I've been hoping to have this old soldier on the podcast since the first episode. He's done more in his career than most could do in three careers. From being a private in the 82nd to sitting with villagers in Somalia he has more stories than Dr. Seuss. We chat about why the Army, playing in foreign countries, sky diving is for psychos and more. Ladies and gentleman my friend Logan. Rogu...

Episode #21 A soldier and a Marine walk into a bar.... 15.04.2022

Gunny Brent is back on the podcast to deny any alcohol related incident that may or may not have (did) happen. What is a statute of limitations? Pew Pews of course because Gunny. And we have absurdly low IQ takes on lowering requirements and women in combat arms.  Is this going to upset you. Probably. Remember we're just dumb ole guys saying things and if that hurts the feels then you need ne...

Episode #20 More bantering of fools 06.04.2022

Mitchell joins me on this episode to talk about nothing. Little bit of movies, little bit of games, why the stock market is nothing but funny money manipulation, and people that spend too much on trucks. 

Episode #19 The ladies have joined the podcast 22.03.2022

Welcome Beth to the podcast. Long time friend first time podcaster. She served in the Army for some years, I don't rememberize what she had said, and has thoughts on it. She makes fun of Austin because it's the right thing to do. Should men and women work side by side? We have thinkings about it. Also I screwed up the intro so you miss her best jokes so haha suck it Beth! Also what are j...

Episode #18 Old Army buddies 09.03.2022

When an old soldier joins his old Army NCOIC  to discuss today's Army vs our time, duty stations, why Chinooks are better than everyone else you get a good talk. Mitchell also joins in to discuss Ukraine and our thoughts on everything.  The world is dumb but so are we.

Episode #17 We found a Quentin 24.02.2022

We finally got the man, the myth, the tanker. Quentin joins Austin on the podcast to talk about peeing pants, the movie Fury, why Austin hates Marine Corp movies. What happens after 1900 is legal? I don't know. Austin is still seeing cats.  Is having foreign kids say derogatory statements fun? Maybe. Did you know there's a shotgun round for tanks?

Episode #16 Is social media the devil? 17.02.2022

Yes. On this episode Austin and I take a journey through time as we analyze social media in the veteran community and how it made us terrible people. You should listen. Or not. Whatever. We're still gonna bs about it. Oh and Austin drove trucks.

Episode #15 Austin's starting a new company. 11.01.2022

Austin stopped by to talk about his new venture and random things. There is a football game going on but we don't really care because it's Georgia/Alabama. His thoughts on shooting and the marvel universe. All that and less. Enjoy.

Episode #14 Gunny's thought on shooting. 11.01.2022

Gunny Brent and my brother from another mother Ant join me at the farm. This is all about our thoughts on shooting. I can't shoot pistols apparently and Gunny can't miss. Are we right or wrong? Who knows but I'm sure there will be a lot of arguing about it. 

Episode #13 Why we love the woods. 18.12.2021

Going out into the woods to hike, camp, or hunt is an constant for a lot of us.  In this episode Gunny and I discuss our thoughts on why this is and gunny gives some deeper insight into hunting in general. Whether you are hunting elk in the west or white tails in the east he has some good information for you. 

A veteran reviews - Spiderman No Way Home (Spoilers!!!) 17.12.2021

Spoiler ahead.  Just got back from the theater and wanted to share my thoughts on this awesome movie. I know from my time in the service and with veterans over the last two decades that these movies are always a favorite. So figured I put out my two cents as a die hard Spiderman fan.

Episode #12 Is the air wing better than everyone else? 16.12.2021

Yes. My buddy Lee joins me today to talk about his time in the Marine Corps working CH-53's. Are they better than every other helicopter? No. But are they really freaking? Yes. Whats life like on boat and how do you shower with you shipmates? Find out this and more. Anyone know people that aren't Marines that I can have on the podcast? Asking for myself.

Episode #11 Fox hole discussions 14.12.2021

Good friend Austin and good friend Mitchell show up to talk Afghanistan screw ups, Tesla cars, and our version of a movie in space. It's extremely non-intellectual. Why does Mitchell love Volvo's so much? Don't judge others who make any appearance because it isn't their fault. Go shop at Rogue Dynamics and show a veteran owned company some love. My friends and I are dumb. Sorry...

Episode #10 Veterans in university 24.11.2021

Great friend Matt and Austin join the podcast to talk about veterans going back to school.  Did we learn stuff? No. But are we better for having tried? Also no. We threw balls at each other and a woman was ran over by a car. But she's cool and so were our friends in the school house. Also schools suck at stuff and things. Is the air wing better than everyone else? Yes.

Episode #9 BS time with the old folks 18.11.2021

Dave and Gunny solved the number question in the world... what's the problem with everyone? Do you love crew served weapons? We do and let's be honest, you do too. Cam makes a quick appearance and then touches things. Did you get a combat jerk in and if you didn't what's wrong with you?

Episode #8 The Dirty 30 11.11.2021

Just after Sept 11, 2001 the entire US military was put on notice that anyone could be deployed to fight Osama Bin Laden. This podcast is for the 30 men from Kco 4/159th out of Hunter Army Airfield. This is the 20 year reunion of our deployment to Pakistan and Afghanistan. We're much older now and our memories aren't real good but it was awesome getting a chance to reminisce about the ex...

Episode #7 who let Austin back? 09.11.2021

Austins really into sales man, like so much so that he talks about it like twice. Boot camp and basic training stories along with who else went to Jacksonville MEPs? How did you end up pick your MOS because both of us were dumb. Do all Marine recruiters get recruits by telling them that they couldn't hack it? Someone go see top and get a prick E8 radio for comms immediately. And its a GFI not...

Episode #6 Another damn Marine tanker and Gunny 28.10.2021

Gene has been there and done that to include surviving his time in north Florida; them boys aint right out there.
