When you do a LIVE show, sometimes you have to deal with LIVE show issues. That sometimes is when a guest can't make it last minute. So, what do you do? It's time to gather up some of your veteran friends and have some fun talking about whatever. That is what we did. We always enjoy talking to some of our past guests who have now become friends.

Eric was excited for another Herostock 2023 reunion with Joe Allen Christi this week. Joe, a 24 year year veteran of the Air Force, turned independent music artist had a great story. From. growing up in Corpus Christi, Texas to joining the military and traveling the world doing finance for the Air Force. Shared how he met his wife in Panama, and was welcomed with open arms by her family. While being shipped all over the world, he decided in his late thirties to start learning and doing new things. this is where he started running Spartan Races. While on the learning kick, he decided to start singing and playing guitar leading to the man we are talking to today. He is now a Country Music singer with a passion for his music and his family. Joe shared a few of his songs with us, and we played his song "Keep the Flag", which you will need to get a tissue ready for. If you are in the Colorado Springs area, go check him out. He has also now started working with a new band Winchester Road. Looking forward to hearing more from them as well. Please follow him and the band at the links below.

This week we had National Guard and Marine Corp Veteran Barbara Sim. Barbara opened up about how much her family moved in her earlier years of growing up, even with some time living in Scotland. Once her family settled in more during her teenage years, and once out of High School. Barbara followed in her sisters' footsteps and joined the National Guard and after two years there made the move to the Marine Corp. While in the Marine Corp she ended up in Okinawa, and eventually on a deployment to Iraq. Have to listen for the stories there. Once she decided to leave the Marine Corp, she ran some though some personal growth for a few years before finding music amongst other things. While hiking the Appalachian Trail, she sang and taught herself to play the guitar. this led to her beginning to do some gigs and sharing her talents with others. This is where she began to feel at home even buying a van to travel the country while singing. Barbara is also part of Operation Encore. Near the end she takes some time and shares her beautiful voice with us, by singing a few of her favorite songs.

Please check out her linktree below and follow her.

Major General (Retired) Gregg F. Martin joined us this week and what a story. Gregg, jumped right out the gates sharing his life growing up in Holbrook, Ma. This is where is desire to really be the best at everything he did started. Something that will later be diagnosed as being bipolar. You will read and hear multiple times how he is a bipolar survivor. This is where his story really began. We love to give the recap, but this is where our guest is such an amazing story teller, and it is his story to tell. We are going to say, you need to watch/listen. If you are someone that struggles with PTSD or any other type of mental health problems, this show is for you. This is a decorated Soldier and leader who was dealing with so much of what was going on in his head, yet accomplished so much in his military career.

Please check out his website:

We learned about her time growing up in East Texas, to her time as an MP in the ARMY and her times in bands for the Army traveling the world. Jenn shared that her transition between military life and civilian life was not smooth, but sh fought for herself and her sons to find the right path. Now, she is enjoying life with her music career, her husband, and traveling to watch her son play football.

Ken Sallee joined us this week. This show has been a long time in the making and we were happy it finally happened. Ken is an Army Veteran, that was kind enough to share his story growing up and why he joined the US Army. We learned of his journey in the Army, including a deployment to Kosovo. After an injury that he sustained, Ken was medically discharged from the Army. At that point he continued in IT as a civilian contractor with the Army until just last year.

Around the time Covid had started Ken found some beard products videos on YouTube, and began following along with the community eventually moving in to doing his own beard content. As he took the time to learn how social media worked, he also launched a YouTube channel where he helped other content creators fine tune their YouTube channels. Now, Ken is focusing on beard care and health. Go give him a follow on his beacon below.
