In this week's episode, we are on with James Reyes. James is here to tell us his story of getting blown up by an IED in Iraq, getting seriously injured as a result, and the journey he went on to overcome those injuries. He went on from there to be a fireman paramedic with us at Los Angeles County, and in the episode, we cover that transition. James also shares some profound dad wisdo,m so don't miss out on the second half of the episode for that.

Big thank you to My Epic and Facedown Records for the use of their song "Hail" in our podcast!
