  • #68 Interview: Patrick Murphy, Past "Soldier's Secretary" of the Army

    Patrick Murphy readily recognizes particular veterans, legislators and military administrators with the title "Great American." Well, it takes one to know one. He is all of these, as well as husband, father, lawyer, teacher, hockey player and loyal son of Philadelphia. For over a year, he was one of the top four managers of the U.S. Army, first as Acting Secretary and then as Under Secretary. He is beloved by both troops and civilian employees for deep understanding of and love for the military, significant initiatives and direct engagement. The Spaniard met Patrick through his brother Scott, another veteran and lawyer. What a talk they have here, about service, sacrifice, priceless spouses and much more--including Patrick's selfless aid to others during a tragic train accident.

  • #67 When What YOU Value Doesn't Matter

    There are times not to care what other people think, but this episode is about the opposite: When the perspective of others is all that matters. This discussion comes about for two reasons. One is that the podcast Show Notes seem to have found no audience. This is valuable knowledge that involves a crucial pivot in the use of the Notes. The other event was unique adversity faced by The Spaniard at an appearance. This caused him to slice-and-dice the viewpoints at play: His own and the crowd's. The learning provides priceless precision for performing--both preparing for it and evaluating it. Also: There are land mines in The Spaniard's house.
