The Shanon Show: The Best Military Kids Podcast

Camille joins the show to reflect back on her military upbringing. She attended high school in  England, Nicaragua, and finally Okinawa, Japan where she graduated from Kubasaki High School. Camille sheds light on the uniquely lonesome transitions that State Department kids have to make and gives advice to those who are doing the same today.

THE PERFECT RECIPE FOR A QUALITY SHANON SHOW: 

- Stories from World Travels - Trolling New Zealanders - Bathroom talk

She's baaaaackkkkkkk! Legendary past guest and Shammy Award Winner, Kena Weels, returns to the podcast to recap her most recent world travels, her love for adverbs, and her technique for annihilating kids in inflatable bubbles. We welcome Dr. Augustina Gonzalez to the podcast to verify New Zealand's nonexistance and present our cases as world class chefs. Enjoy the instant Shanon Show classic episode!

The most valid episode of The Shanon Show of all time is finally here. I interview two returning guests, Willow Lewis and Calah Thompson, to learn more about their powerful friendship and their current lives. Calah shares what it's like doing photography and graphic design as a United States Marine and Willow explains how she was able to successfully adjust to life on a college campus and kick ass in Navy ROTC. Together, they take me back to the day that they first met in Okinawa, as well as, recap their recent summer meet-up in Tokyo. Most importantly, we tackle a preposterous predicament that will unfourtunately jumpstart my tuxedo t-shirt modeling career. It's a super-fun episode with two amazing young women, who can serve as inspirations for military kids everywhere.

In today's podcast I interviewed Phoebe who is a Navy brat that primarily grew up in Yokosuka, Japan. We talk about life in Japan and some of her realizations when she transitioned back to the states. She attended a community college before ultimately graduating from UC Berkley, where she says that she learned a lot about herself and her ethnic background. We dive into the longer-lasting effects of our military child upbringings and how they still impact us as adults.

On the show today, I had the absolute best time interviewing Ms. Athens Pellegrino. Athens is a mother of three, childrens book author, and Air Force spouse. She works as a budget analyst for the Air Force and received the 2022 MacDill AF Base Military Spouse of the Year. Her two books thus far are apart of her "Military Child Chronicles" series titled "Mission: My First PCS" and "Mission Mistletoe." We discussed all things military mom, shared some PCS tips, and squeezed in a preposterous predicament!
