Guru of Ojai vintage John Dennis returns to celebrate our 100th episode in hilarious, healing and heartwarming conversation with Jaymee, covering everything from cold-plunging to crack smoking in their youth. John's amazing shop of oddities Valley Of The Moon has been a sponsor of this podcast, and John is not only a friend but a fan favorite and one of our most requested return guests since he made his last appearance on Episode 4.

Caleb Van Patten is a former platoon sergeant and combat marksmanship trainer for the Marine Corps, and currently a Firefighter with El Dorado County Fire who were assigned to the recent Eaton Fire in Los Angeles. Jaymee met Caleb moments after Caleb nearly lost his life attempting to save Jaymee's parents Altadena home, and the two became instant friends. This uncommonly vulnerable and emotionally charged episode may be the most important conversation recorded on the podcast to date: epic tales of overcoming adversity, surviving multiple losses of psychological identity, the healing power of Love and the importance of honesty in addressing trauma.
