Speaker 1: combat tour in Afghanistan. He's also the host of the

5
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 1: Dave Brutherford Show on the Clay Buck podcast Network, which

6
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 1: is growing, growing, growing every month. It is a fantastic program.

7
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: Recommend you all go check it out. Dave, we call

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 1: you Rut, So for anyone's confused, mister Rutt, tell us

9
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: first off, your thoughts on this Veterans Day, speaking for

10
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,560
Speaker 1: yourself and your fellow veterans out there, what's your top

11
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 1: level view?

12
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 2: How's it going?

13
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 3: Oh, Buck, Clay, thanks for having me on again. I

14
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 3: think for veterans right now, there's a rebirth. There's a

15
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 3: revival taking place. And what Pete is doing. I mean

16
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 3: every time I see Joe Kent post something, I want

17
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 3: to go get my kid on and you know, sign

18
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 3: back up. And I just think right now there's a

19
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 3: revitalization and the numbers are showing that people are wanting

20
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,039
Speaker 3: to go in, They're wanting to serve. They believe that

21
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 3: the president is fired up to make the American military

22
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 3: the mightiest force in the world again. And I think

23
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 3: it's a real positive moment for everyone.

24
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 4: When you see those enlistment numbers and Pete Hexth came

25
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 4: out at the Patriot Awards and he was talking about

26
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 4: them on Thursday night, and I know that on this

27
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,479
Speaker 4: Veteran's Day, they're shining a bright light on it. Isn't

28
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 4: that the best actual indication of how the Secretary of

29
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 4: War as we now have it renamed, but the Secretary

30
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,759
Speaker 4: of Defense for the last thirty or forty years. Isn't

31
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 4: that the ultimate judgment on him and on the trajectory

32
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 4: of the military.

33
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: Do people want to join or not?

34
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 5: Yeah?

35
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 6: I mean absolutely it is.

36
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 3: I mean you went to that. I mean I love that.

37
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 3: There was this incredible galla right. You saw the Marine

38
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 3: Corps balls, you saw Vice President Events speak at Evans

39
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 3: speak at one. You know, the E five mafia represented

40
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 3: at the highest levels. Yeah, people are stoked and the

41
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 3: numbers reflect that. You know, I think it's it's you know,

42
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 3: the other the other great challenge is because we're not

43
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:27,679
Speaker 3: in a very substantial kinetic environment right now, that it's

44
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 3: difficult to tell, you know, whether it'll last. Because that's

45
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 3: the real testament. Do people stay in over when there's

46
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 3: high levels of combat. But right now, I think young people,

47
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 3: young American twenty four year old men, are are revitalized

48
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 3: with this idea that I can go and serve in

49
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 3: the military, that my uncle, that my father, that my grandfather,

50
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 3: that my great grandfather served in and I'm going to

51
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 3: get that genuine sense of real pagetriotism and service.

52
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 1: Dave, take us back, if you would, to your decision

53
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 1: to join up. Just what it was like going through,

54
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: what was going through your head, what your feelings were

55
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: about at the motivations, your sense of what it would

56
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,959
Speaker 1: mean to be in the Navy, and of course to

57
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: join the teams become a Navy seal. Like, just take

58
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: us back to that moment, because I think for a

59
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: lot of people who today maybe are considering once again.

60
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: You know, we have younger audience members who are listening

61
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: who might be thinking about it. We have college age

62
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: people listening who might be considering it. What was your

63
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: mindset like when you first decided I'm going to throw

64
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: my hat in the ring.

65
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 3: That's a great question, Bock. You know, for me, I

66
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 3: was I was struggling to try and figure out what

67
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 3: I wanted to do with my life. You know, my

68
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 3: athletic career hadn't worked out the way I had hoped

69
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 3: at college level, and I was just in this position

70
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 3: where it's like, what is the meaning of my life

71
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 3: going to represent? And you know, my great great uncle

72
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 3: was in Rose Theodore Roosevelt's cabinet. You know, I had

73
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 3: you know, it's been several generations since anybody had served,

74
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 3: but you know that legacy and link I think was

75
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 3: a driving force as well as just my you know,

76
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 3: I was a gen x er. I was influenced by

77
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 3: Rambo and Commando and all the incredible movies that you know,

78
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 3: showed American military might and power at the highest levels,

79
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 3: popped on Navy seals, and that consumed me. I was like,

80
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 3: this is the this is the thing that's going to

81
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 3: put me on my way, help me figure out what

82
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 3: I'm made of if i'm if I can represent something

83
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 3: bigger than myself and and something that will give me

84
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 3: purpose and meaning to figure out the longer term idea

85
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 3: of what I might ultimately become. So yeah, it was

86
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 3: a powerful influence over me to go try and become

87
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 3: a part of you know, not only the D O

88
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 3: D but the Navy and the seal teams and down

89
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,359
Speaker 3: all the way to the guys that were next to

90
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 3: me that I served with.

91
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 4: We're talking to David Rutherford. Encourage you to go subscribe

92
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 4: to his podcast. It's a part of the Clay and

93
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 4: Buck podcast network. It's Veterans Day. You are a Navy

94
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 4: Seal and I don't know if we've ever asked you

95
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 4: this question, but when you were going through the process

96
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 4: of becoming a Navy Seal, what was the toughest thing

97
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 4: to you about the Navy seal process itself? It was

98
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 4: there a moment where you thought, I cannot push myself

99
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 4: any further. And we've got a lot of people out there,

100
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 4: a lot of young guys that listen to us and

101
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 4: maybe aspire to be a Navy Seal one day. What

102
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 4: would you say they should know? What would you say

103
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 4: they should do?

104
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 3: I think the biggest thing is to recognize that you

105
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 3: have so much more in your reservoir of willpower than

106
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 3: you can even imagine. You know, in these programs, whether

107
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 3: it's BODS or it's selection or the Q course or

108
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 3: mar or whatever amazing selection process from all the different

109
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 3: soft units, like you have to realize you have what

110
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 3: it takes. It's just a question of believing in yourself.

111
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 3: And then for me, the biggest thing is I didn't

112
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 3: want to let the guys down next to me. That

113
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 3: was the biggest motivator. Like I'm gonna be honest, I

114
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 3: thought about, you know, quitting all the time. I mean,

115
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 3: the pain of just going through it, being wet, being sandy,

116
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 3: being miserable, having people scream at you, the whole thing.

117
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 3: But what it does for me is it just motivated

118
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 3: me to be better for the guys next to me,

119
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 3: and then they became the ultimate motivation. So, you know,

120
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 3: I think when you're thinking about what it is first

121
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 3: and foremost the number one thing. And I just had

122
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 3: a call with a young man the other day who's

123
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 3: in college and you know, really thinking about it. And

124
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 3: the thing I say to most is is do the

125
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 3: deep guy understand what you're committing to understand? You know.

126
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 3: Bongino Dan put a great text out or tweet out

127
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 3: today where he said, you know, the ultimate thing is service,

128
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 3: serving the men and women that are next to you

129
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 3: in the line of fire and and and that is

130
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 3: the thing that is the driving force ultimately. I you know,

131
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 3: I know guys that have eight hundred combat missions. I

132
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 3: know a couple of guys that five hundred, four hundred.

133
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 3: You know, multiple silver stars, five bronze stars with valors.

134
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 3: These are the ultimate heroes and you ask them why

135
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 3: did you serve? Why did you fight as hard as

136
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 3: you did? And the ultimate thing always comes down because

137
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 3: of the man that was next to me, And so

138
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 3: you know that's the driving force. If you want to

139
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 3: participate with the with the very highest caliber of committed

140
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 3: human beings to you and your success, then these programs

141
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 3: are are right for you.

142
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 2: Dave, I wanted you to also weigh in on how

143
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 2: are we doing?

144
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: You know, there was this whole period during the gat

145
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: era where a lot of people who served and a

146
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 1: lot of people who saw combat were being brought back

147
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: in and going through the transition back into civilian life.

148
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: That is less of a focus now in the general

149
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: public discussion that it was because you point out we're

150
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: not really an active combat zones the.

151
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 2: Way we were before.

152
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: How are we doing and taking care of our veterans though,

153
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: because whether it's we have tunnel to towers for example,

154
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: a great sponsor here on the program, you know there

155
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,239
Speaker 1: are some veterans who have long term needs who still

156
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: need that assistance from whether it's psychological or physical wounds.

157
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: You know, is the VA getting the attention it needs

158
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: under this administration? You know, I'm wondering how we're doing

159
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: on that front.

160
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 3: I still believe there is an a measurable amount of

161
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 3: work to be done. Yeah, I see the director of

162
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 3: the VA going on all the shows and he's saying

163
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,719
Speaker 3: the right things, but there are still you know, thousands,

164
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 3: tens of thousands of people in the soft community alone

165
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 3: that took the braunt of those grote operational tempo. You know,

166
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 3: and it's not just the combat deployment since the endless

167
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,439
Speaker 3: training cycles right then also have a really profound effect.

168
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 3: And that's why for me, I really kind of linked

169
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 3: myself to doctor Chris Free and the framework of operator syndrome,

170
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 3: you know, when I started a little nonprofit to really

171
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 3: try and figure out how to address the seventeen different

172
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 3: medical and behavioral health challenges that long term exposure to

173
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 3: high training tempos and high deployment cycles has an impact

174
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 3: on people. You know, you can't send a guy, you know,

175
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:44,439
Speaker 3: doing fourteen fifteen deployments and not expect there to be

176
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:48,119
Speaker 3: some long term damage and That's why you know, there

177
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 3: was actually just a new study from a Stanford doctor

178
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 3: that did a case study with two hundred special operations

179
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 3: guys that and he used the operator syndrome framework, and

180
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 3: that study validated the original paper and book written by

181
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 3: doctor Chris Free that this is a reality, right, that

182
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 3: long term exposure causes metabolic destabilization. It causes behavioral health

183
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 3: challenges in different ways. Yes, TTSD, but also survivors guilt,

184
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 3: extensive existential challenges, intimacy issues. Right then you have neurogenic

185
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 3: issues from blast wave exposure, you know, endocrine dysfunction, and

186
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 3: then the orthopedic injuries, the perpetual living and pain, and

187
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 3: so you know, I think there's still a lot of

188
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 3: work to be done. There's a lot of work to

189
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 3: be done at the administrative level to at least bring

190
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 3: in this Stanford doc and doctor Free. I would love

191
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 3: to see them be able to testify on Capitol Hill

192
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 3: and tell the people that are in charge of the

193
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 3: funding to harve out a little bit of funding to

194
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 3: do research on operators syne. I mean, we've seen the

195
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 3: most most substantial thing I think we've seen on the

196
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,079
Speaker 3: has been on the state level. You saw former Governor

197
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 3: Perry work with the lawyer Hubbard was his name, and

198
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 3: they got fifty million dollars in funding to do research

199
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 3: on I've a gain in five m DMT, which is

200
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 3: the VETS program initiative that really helps guys one get sober,

201
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,079
Speaker 3: come off prescription drugs, and then the other to re

202
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 3: establish neuroelasticity and establish new brain patterning that can help

203
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 3: facilitate putting some of those demons to rest. So there's

204
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 3: a lot of work to be done, a lot of

205
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: guys still struggling, And what I would really love is

206
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,959
Speaker 3: that for the next kinetic war that could take place,

207
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 3: which right now could be anywhere, I hope that we

208
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 3: have a better plan in place to take care of

209
00:11:55,600 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 3: them as opposed to what the GYT guys them guys

210
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 3: the Korean and then also World War two guys did

211
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 3: not receive.

212
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: David Rutherford, thank you for your service, our friend. We

213
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 1: appreciate you, appreciate what you did for the country, and

214
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: also would recommend all of you listening go check out

215
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: the David Rutherford Show on the Clay and Buck podcast network.

216
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: Rutt always appreciate you man, Thank you for giving us

217
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: your time today.

218
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 3: God bless you guys. Thank you Buck for your service too. Buddy,

219
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:25,800

Speaker 2: Thank you my man, you too.

221
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: The Preborn Network of Clinics stands out as the nonprofit

222
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 1: that does so much to save the lives of unborn

223
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: children every day, because for a woman contending with an

224
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: unplanned pregnancy, having information, options and support is key to

225
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 1: saving the unborn baby in her womb. Ask Linda about

226
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 1: learning about her options in that moment in her life.

227
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 1: When Linda learned she was pregnant, she knew abortion was wrong,

228
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: but fear almost consumed her and led her to dark places.

229
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 1: She didn't know where to turn to. Then she found

230
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:58,079
Speaker 1: a Preborn Network clinic. She was met there with prayer, compassion, love,

231
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: and the truth that peers through her fear. Linda chows

232
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 1: life for her tiny baby. Linda got truthful answers about

233
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 1: matters related to our unborn child that Preborn clinic, Because

234
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: when a mother hears the truth, lives are saved. Twenty

235
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 1: eight dollars provides a free ultrasound to women like Linda.

236
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: That single gift, that experience of meeting her unborn child,

237
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 1: makes all the difference. This is your chance to make

238
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 1: a difference.

239
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:20,040

Speaker 4: edition of the program.

252
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 2: A lot of different stories. We are following.

253
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 4: A bunch of people went to weigh in variety of

254
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 4: different topics relating to Veterans Day.

255
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 2: Let's take some of these calls. David and Louisiana.

256
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 4: We were talking about some of the things that veterans

257
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 4: went through, and you're saying, Jonathan Plumb Martin, who was

258
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 4: a famous diarist who fought in the Revolutionary War with

259
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 4: the Condental Army, I have not read it. I've seen

260
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 4: it excerpted quite a lot, because he is one of

261
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 4: the foremost chroniclers of what life was like for soldiers

262
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 4: in those eras, what did you come away with your

263
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 4: biggest impression being David.

264
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 8: Yeah, I just want to correct something. His name was

265
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 8: Joseph Plumb Martin and his book is called A Private

266
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 8: Yankee Doodle.

267
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 3: It is. It's pretty easy to get.

268
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 8: And I'm a I'm a twenty year veteran. I'm retired Navy,

269
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 8: and I wanted to wish Buck a happy Veterans Day

270
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 8: and really enjoy your show. And before I just wanted

271
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 8: to say one thing. The last time I talked to

272
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 8: somebody at this number, it was the great Rush Limbaugh.

273
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 8: So it's a very I'm very excited to talk to

274
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 8: you guys because I think you are a great It's

275
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 8: a great way to keep on the old Rush Show.

276
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 8: So thank you very much for what you guys do.

277
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 4: Well, thank you for the call, thank you for your service.

278
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 4: And yes we're gonna fire producer Greg for leading me

279
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 4: over the middle and writing the wrong person's name down

280
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 4: in the in the roster there.

281
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 2: But it is the Plum Martin.

282
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 4: If you watch or read anything relating to the Revolutionary War,

283
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 4: that is a huge part of the discussion.

284
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 2: Are you interested at all?

285
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 4: Buck, I believe at debuts in the next few days

286
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 4: in the new ken Burns Revolutionary War documentary. Have you

287
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 4: seen him doing a bunch of media lately on it.

288
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be honest with you. I'm actually because I'm

289
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 4: reading the Rick Atkinson books right now, the trilogy. He's

290
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 4: only two volumes in, and I'm somewhat interested to see

291
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 4: what ken Burns puts together. The Civil War documentary that

292
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 4: he did back in the nineties was and is a

293
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 4: work of art. And I know a lot of people

294
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 4: have watched additional ken Burns documentary since he is of

295
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 4: the left. But but I the Central Park five documentary,

296
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 4: I don't remember that whether he did that or not.

297
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 4: I mean, Kit Bergy did baseball. He did the Civil War,

298
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 4: which is really really well done. The Civil War documentary is,

299
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 4: and it was a PBS huge success story back in

300
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 4: the day. I mean, he's probably the most famous documentary

301
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 4: hist historian in the maybe the world, certainly the United States.

302
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 4: Let's see, David in Maryland. You got a story for

303
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 4: us about Veterans.

304
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 6: Day, Hi claim Buck, can you hear me?

305
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 3: Okay?

306
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 2: We got you, all right.

307
00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 6: I got an amazing story.

308
00:16:59,360 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 3: To tell you.

309
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 6: I was out in Hawaii for work about fifteen years ago,

310
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 6: and I took good day at the end of my

311
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 6: trip to go see the Pearl Harbor, and I went

312
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 6: through all the exhibits, and then I took the ship

313
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 6: over to the Arizona and went inside, and there was

314
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,199
Speaker 6: an old gentleman there. It was in the center. If

315
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 6: you've ever been there, there's a center opening. He was

316
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 6: standing next to the center opening, and I couldn't really

317
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 6: hear him much because it was crowded, But later on

318
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 6: I walked over to listen to him, and it turned

319
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 6: out he was actually on the ship and he was

320
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 6: on the set. He was on the second talless Crow's

321
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 6: nests and he got blown out and he woke up

322
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 6: in the water, and so I stayed after. I didn't

323
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 6: even get on the ship back because I wanted to

324
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 6: talk to him. It was so amazing and he and

325
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,199
Speaker 6: he said, you want to know why I think it

326
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 6: blow blew up? And I said, of course I do.

327
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 6: He said, well, we just put a catapult on about

328
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 6: a year before to send off floatplanes to do some reconnaissance,

329
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 6: and we had to flip the chargers somewhere.

330
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 4: Stick stick with us because we've got a hard out here.

331
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 4: If we'll keep him over we'll bring him. That's one

351
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 1: you were telling a story we all wanted to hear.

352
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,919
Speaker 1: So you can just give us a little a quick recap.

353
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,920
Speaker 1: Tell us where you are, set the scene, because some

354
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: listeners will have rejoined us, and we'll let you take

355
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: this thing all the way, go for.

356
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 6: It, okay.

357
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 3: Sure.

358
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 6: So so I was the gentleman. I was talking to

359
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 6: the gentleman after the ship left, and now we were

360
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 6: only two in there, and he said, you know, want

361
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 6: to know why I think the ship blew up like

362
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 6: it did, was because we had just put about nine

363
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 6: months before we put a catapult on, and we used

364
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 6: to we would send off floatplanes with special charges to

365
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 6: go out to do reconnaissance. And he said that the

366
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 6: powder they use for that was very volatile. We had

367
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 6: no place to stort except in the magazine, so we

368
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 6: set it around the inside of the charges for the

369
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,640
Speaker 6: regular comes, which wasn't as volatile. And he thought that

370
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:59,199
Speaker 6: was he thought that would contributed to the explosion. And

371
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,959
Speaker 6: then then and that actually gets better claimed buck, because

372
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,879
Speaker 6: while we're standing there, just the two of us, the

373
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 6: next ship came up to drop people off, and here

374
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 6: comes everybody up and the very last group coming up

375
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 6: where it was an older gentleman with two women on

376
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 6: either side. Women on either side of them helping him

377
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 6: up the grant and up the guy came and he

378
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 6: turned and it was a Japanese guy and he had

379
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 6: an interpreter there, and he said he was on one

380
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 6: of the planes that had dropped the bombs on Pearl Harbor.

381
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 6: And the two just looked at each other and saluted

382
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 6: each other, and there wasn't a dry eye in the place.

383
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 6: It was unbelievable. He said he'd always wanted to be there.

384
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 6: This was the first time he could go Wow Harbor.

385
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 2: Well, thank you for calling in and sharing that story

386
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 2: on Veterans Day. Buck. Have you ever been to Pearl Harbor?

387
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 2: Have not? No, have not been. I have never been either.

388
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 2: I would like to go. Let me give a.

389
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 4: Super endorsement here the World War Two Museum in New Orleans.

390
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 4: It's been that one of amazing, incredible It's an incredible spot.

391
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 4: And the reason why it comes to mind here is

392
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:14,199
Speaker 4: they put veterans. Veterans would come and stand in the

393
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 4: main lobby that fought in World War Two for years

394
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 4: and years, veterans from the New Orleans area, veterans traveling

395
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 4: and tell their stories to people who came to tour

396
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 4: the World War Two Memorial, and there are so few

397
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:35,479
Speaker 4: World War Two veterans left among us now that I

398
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 4: am so grateful that they have done a phenomenal job

399
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 4: of chronicling so many of those stories so they aren't

400
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 4: lost to history. With just so many interviews that have

401
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 4: been done with so many of our brave World War

402
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,639
Speaker 4: Two veterans. And if you get the opportunity, you go

403
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 4: to New Orleans. I know it's a huge tourist town.

404
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 4: I know everybody gets out on Bourbon Street and gets

405
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 4: hurricanes and has a phenomenal time in that city. Please

406
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 4: take the time to go to the World War Two Museum.

407
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 4: Take your kids. The last time I was in New

408
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 4: Orleans was the Super Bowl last year, and or I

409
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 4: guess early this year. I was really impressed at the

410
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 4: number of kids that were in town to go to

411
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 4: the game. Kind of a cool thing to get to

412
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 4: do as a kid, but that mom and dad were

413
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 4: taking them to as part of being down in town

414
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,120
Speaker 4: for that game, that they were taking them also to

415
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl. A lot of Chiefs, a lot of

416
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 4: Eagle fan bases. But when I was there, the number

417
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 4: of kids that I saw was very impressive. So if

418
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 4: you get the opportunity to go tour that museum, I

419
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 4: can't recommend it any higher at all. It truly is extraordinary.

420
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 4: Let's see Dan and Prescott Arizona said, you got to

421
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 4: have a lunch with General Omar Bradley. How did that happen?

422
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 5: Well, in seventy eight, our unit at Fort Bliss, which

423
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 5: is where General Bradley was stationed or retired. Our unit

424
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 5: was best on post and I was fortunate enough to

425
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 5: be best on post also, and General Bradley came and

426
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 5: visited our unit and I was selected to have lunch

427
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 5: with him. And the two star general that pushed him

428
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 5: around instructed me that I could ask him anything except

429
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 5: his view on how General Patton died. And he was

430
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 5: very accommodating, he was very nice, he was still in uniform,

431
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 5: still a wonderful gentleman. But I did not ask him

432
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 5: how General Patton died, and I always wanted to. He

433
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 5: autographed his book for me, and I've seen several documentaries

434
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 5: on it, but never quite satisfied with with the answer.

435
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 2: Well, thank you for the patent.

436
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 4: Died in a car accident, right, Well, I'm assuming there

437
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 4: must be a conspiracy theory associated with that.

438
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 2: I did not know that. But yes, I didn't know that.

439
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 1: I didn't know there was anything what there is there

440
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,399
Speaker 1: a conspiracy that why would Omar Bradley have not General

441
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 1: Bradley have not been wanted you answer asking that question?

442
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 2: Do you have any idea?

443
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 5: Yes, after reading several books. The accident was such a

444
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 5: small accident. Nobody else was injured. There were just a

445
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 5: lot of things that don't add up. You could you

446
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:56,239
Speaker 5: could ask Bill O'Reilly, he wrote Killing Patten And if

447
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:57,120
Speaker 5: we will ask.

448
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 2: Bill O'Reilly, he scheduled to be on in the next

449
00:24:59,000 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 2: couple of days.

450
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 1: So what we got Uncle Bill Thursday, So we'll mark

451
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 1: this one down for him.

452
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 3: What.

453
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, well we'll ask him about this. Is there anything

454
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 1: specific that you wanted us to dive into with Uncle Bill?

455
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 5: I said, just the specifics around his view on how

456
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 5: Paton gotcha.

457
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:16,400

Speaker 9: to Indianapolis. I'm in Illinois right now, but I spent

472
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:11,160
Speaker 9: two days on I ninety listening to Killing England and

473
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 9: it was fantastic. I mean, I've read other of his books,

474
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 9: Killing Witches, and I can't remember anything else right now,

475
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 9: but anyway, it was a fantastic book. And when you

476
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,439
Speaker 9: mentioned Valley Forge, I had to call in because it

477
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 9: was just insane. These guys didn't even have shoes. They

478
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,440
Speaker 9: had to tie rags to their feet, and the British

479
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 9: would track them through the snow because of the blood

480
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 9: that they left behind.

481
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 2: It's unbelievable, it really is.

482
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 4: I mean, again, having just read, thank you for the call, Sharon.

483
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 4: Stay safe on the road as you travel back to Indianapolis.

484
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 4: Having just read about Valley Ford.

485
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:57,400
Speaker 2: But nobody had shoes. I mean, think about how cold.

486
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 4: It is wherever you are, and imagine walking around in

487
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 4: those rags and dealing clay.

488
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,239
Speaker 1: It's it's honestly, you know, this is kind of this

489
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: is hitting home for you today in South Florida. It's

490
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 1: fifty degrees here, my friend, I mean.

491
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 4: Is just like this is this opar falling apart in Florida, right,

492
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,160
Speaker 4: You got iguana's falling out of the trees. You got

493
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 4: everyone walking around in ski parka is because the only

494
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 4: clothing they have that's warm, that's cold weather, is when

495
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 4: they go skiing. It's it's pandemonium out here in the fifties,

496
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,119
Speaker 4: my friend, so Valley Forge, no shoes, I know what

497
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 4: it was like. I know what it was like for

498
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 4: those guys. I'm walking around here. I have to put

499
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 4: socks on in my sandals. Down here in Miami. It's madness,

500
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 4: it is. It is Miami's version of Valley Forge. People

501
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 4: think I'm joking about that. But the iguanas freeze in

502
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 4: the trees and fall out iguana popsicles when it gets

503
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:51,400
Speaker 4: cold there.

504
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 2: They're not dead.

505
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,159
Speaker 1: They're just they their heartbeat slows down so much, or

506
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: their system slows down so much that they essentially pass

507
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: out and they fall out of trees.

508
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 2: And by the way, they.

509
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 4: Are pretty big if you can get way, imagine get

510
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 4: knot or killed by an iguana falling out of the tree.

511
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 2: That'd be a tough way.

512
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: To get that's ever happened, But I just could tell

513
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: you when you see one and it's lying there and

514
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,679
Speaker 1: it's all because this happens. Uh, they're they're considerable. They

515
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:19,439
Speaker 1: will whip you with their tail too, so when they

516
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 1: wake up, you don't want to be and they have

517
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 1: a little sharp teeth.

518
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:22,879
Speaker 2: This is why it's feeling.

519
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 4: All amazing that they just go to like they just

520
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 4: freeze like that and and truly fall out of the trees.

521
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: And for you know, you know they're they were they're

522
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 1: escaped pets. They're an invasive speci Oh yeah, here in

523
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: South Florida. They are absolutely not native. They came from

524
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: South America. They are not native to Miami. But man,

525
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 1: have they taken to this habitat. And unfortunately they're really

526
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: rough on foundations for buildings. They burrow and they dig,

527
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 1: so they can be a pest. They can be dangerous

528
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 1: to building structures, sort of like the boa constrictors and

529
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 1: pythons that they have here now, also pets that were released,

530
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: the pets that I like, though, we have parrots that

531
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 1: have been released, and the parrots are fun, they're nice.

532
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: They're not native either. There are very few of these

533
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 1: species that people associate with. Alligators and crocodiles. The only

534
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 1: place in the world where they coexist in the same

535
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 1: ecosystem is here, and they are native to South Florida

536
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: Manates obviously there, you know. And then the sharks, which

537
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,239
Speaker 1: we've talked about a lot, but a lot of the

538
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 1: things you think of as Florida animals, they're pets the

539
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: people brought here.

540
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 4: Bruce in Hastings, Minnesota, you got to call for us

541
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,040

00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,000
Speaker 4: And so they're still collecting the stories.

550
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 10: Yeah, he was shot down over Tokyo in the B

551
00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 10: twenty nine and Pow in Japan for the last months

552
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 10: of the war, so they're still collecting stories.

553
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 5: It sun my bucket list to get down there and

554
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 5: see the place myself.

555
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 2: So who fuck it?

556
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 1: Thank you so much, Grad Bay. Wait real quick, Bruce,

557
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 1: any tips. I mean, when it's fifty degrees in Minnesota,

558
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 1: you guys, do you sleep shirtless outside on your lawn?

559
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 2: Like because that doesn't bother you at all?

560
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 1: Right, that's like a ball me day in Minnesota pretty much.

561
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 6: I was up at my cabin this weekend.

562
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 10: It was about nineteen and I was sweating, so you know,

563
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 10: there we go.

564
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, he admit, man, he's been at Minnesota. People they

565
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 1: would out, they would outlast us. Florida people are sawny

566
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 1: that you.

567
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 4: You as a New Yorker, you dealt with cold winners

568
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 4: quite a lot because New York City, the wind is

569
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 4: brutal through so many of those buildings and everything else.

570
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 4: You're now down in Miami. When we were in Fort Wayne, Indiana,

571
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 4: we stepped off the plane. It was a little chili

572
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 4: in Fort Wayne. You were ready to just head straight

573
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 4: back to Miami. You're like, it's fifty four degrees. I

574
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 4: don't know a lot of people living.

575
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: I wanted to light a little a little fire and

576
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 1: just keep my hands, you know, over it outside because

577
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 1: it was so cold in Indiana. I think it was

578
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: in like the high fifties. I don't know how you

579
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 1: guys deal with this stuff. It's really really tough. So

580
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: you know we're working on it. Though we're working on it. Well,

581
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: take some more called Clayton, who did you have if

582
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: your grandparents generation military service on that side.

583
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, and my uncle is actually eighty four. He's dealing

584
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 4: right now with cancer. I'm glad you mentioned this. He

585
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 4: listens and tries to watch as he can. But he

586
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 4: was in Vietnam and so and worked on While in Vietnam,

587
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 4: he was in charge of helicopter maintenance repair and one

588
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 4: of the crazy things I think I mentioned this before

589
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 4: on the show, but one way they ensured that everybody

590
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 4: who would build the helicopters was as steadfast in their

591
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 4: in their rehabilitation and then their fixing of the helicopters

592
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 4: was every time they fixed one, they had to be

593
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 4: the first guys to go up in it. So for

594
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 4: anybody that has been in a helicopter, they would bring

595
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 4: him in say hey, they need maintenance, they need to

596
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 4: be fixed, and then you go right up in it,

597
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 4: so the way that you knew that you were working

598
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 4: on it and making sure that it was as good

599
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 4: as anybody could be. So he flew all over Vietnam

600
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 4: my helicopters.

601
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: My mother's father, so my maternal grandfather who's passed away

602
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 1: years ago. But he was an officer on the USS Batan,

603
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 1: which is one of those converted converted aircraft carriers. It

604
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,479
Speaker 1: was essentially they did this quick fix to these ships

605
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 1: to make them into I think they're called cr not crvs.

606
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 1: I forget there's some designation for them. But yeah, he

607
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 1: was He initially was a pilot and did some training

608
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 1: pilot training. But I just remember reading about how I

609
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,280
Speaker 1: think we lost was it fifteen thousand or thirty thousand

610
00:32:56,280 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 1: people to flight accidents in the Pacific theater? Not shot down,

611
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: never found them, just the plane crashed in the ocean,

612
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 1: and that was that. Going between theaters of conflict now,

613
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: you know, like transport essentially, I think it was something

614
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,479
Speaker 1: like either fifteen or thirty thousand, some astonishing with training

615
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: accidents and astonishing the high number. So yeah, there's a

616
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of ways that people are taking

617
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 1: risks when they serve. All right, look something really happy here.

618
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 1: My family absolutely loves the early Christmas presents I got

619
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 1: for them. I combined things in clay. I got my

620
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 1: mom her birthday gifts plus my mom and dad. They're
