Grant Newsham is a senior research fellow at the Japan Forum for Strategic Studies and a retired intelligence officer who served in the United States Marine Officer, he joined ALL MARINE RADIO to discuss President Trump’s historic summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and the rationale behind events that will take place in Singapore.  Why would North Korea give up their nuclear weapons when they could move their economy into the 20th century by giving up so much less, then extend the negotiations and wait until President Trump is out of office?  We’ll talk about it.

The Gunner put himself into a bad mood by watching a series of YouTube videos… we’ll talk about WHY he would make himself angry and what he actually got angry about.

The Gunner was unable to join us yesterday due to his migraine headaches returning suddenly; we’ll discuss (1) how his migraines come back, (2) combat experiences that return as haunting dreams and (3) the news that suicide is rising in the United States and is now the 10th leading cause of death in the nation — why is it rising with all the awareness and programs to stop it?

The Gunner is in a state of “Unauthorized Absence” and so we make a trip to the MAILBAG that was made famous by R. Lee Ermy!

Bob Nilsson, former USMC Caption  and Founder, 100 Entrepreneurs Project joined us to talk “best transition” practices and its link to “post-traumatic growth” and happiness. Bob has more experience that any Marine I know in the area of helping transitioning veterans and his words always ring true.  A great mentor and friend of ALL MARINE RADIO, always a joy to hear his thoughts on leaving the military and continuing to lead a selfless, purpose-driven life.
