Aaron Knowles began his Army career as a transportation soldier and later transitioned into Public Affairs. He and Sam discuss his current duties as a senior non-commissioned officer, but also the creativity and passion for “nerd culture” that has stretched across his nearly two decades of service. Aaron tells the story of a military friendship that led to the creation of The Oblivion Bar podcast. He talks about being a Twitch streamer, cosplaying, and his love photography. He and Sam conclude with a discussion about how creative expression serves as a therapeutic outlet and improves mental health.
