Tracer Burnout

“This is it? Okay then, now what?”

It’s the final episode from our road trip and we’re in Charlottesville at the Aerial Resupply Coffee roastery. We speak with Army veteran and ARC owner, Mr. Mike Klemmer. We discuss being a broken-hearted college dropout, having a military specialty that gets phased out, driving through mine fields, building a Foward Operating Base from the ground up, and how to go from hating coffee to starting a coffee company. 

In the Free Fire Area, we discuss which historic sports teams we wanted to be on - despite having minimal athletic abilities ourselves.

"I had a hit-man tell me that I needed to find God."

*This episode discusses the very serious topics of sex trafficking and exploitation of children. Our guest was a federal prosecutor with a focus on those heinous crimes. Please proceed with caution. All of the legal details are accurate to the best of Mr. Jones’ recollection.*

In the first episode of our recent road trip, we're at the University of Virgina to speak with Marine Corps veteran and former federal prosecutor (and so, so many other things) Mr. Scott Jones. We discuss his multiple stints at the UVA law school, how searching for IEDs from a jet is ineffective, the way perspective changes after losing friends in combat, why prosecuting traffic violations sucks, the importance of bringing scumbags to justice, and the difficulties of returning to the UVA medical school when you are old enough to be your peers' parent.

In the Free Fire Area, we discuss the 200th anniversary of the Marquis de Lafayette's return to the USA, other founding fathers, and our terrible pirating skills.

“I’ve always wanted to do something that helped other people.” In this episode, we speak with Army veteran Mr. Scot Storey. We discuss casualties during Operation Just Cause, the burdens of leadership, how perception shapes reality, running an Operations Center in the wake of 9-11, and how quickly an advanced degree can collect dust. In the Free Fire Area, we discuss mysteries we want answers to. We’re not saying it’s aliens…. but it’s aliens.

“It’s not my story. I’m a character in the book. It’s our story.” In this episode, we speak with Army veteran and author Mr. Andrew Bragg. We discuss his two combat deployments in Afghanistan, making it into a James Dietz print, losing friends in combat, driving across the country to reconnect with those that survived, and a magical land full of unicorns, gumdrops, and rainbows. In the Free Fire Area, we call-out the most overrated bands of all time.

“The time you take to beat yourself up over doing something wrong is the time you could have taken to do it right.” In this episode, we speak with Air Force and Army veteran and now author Ms. Bevin Goldsmith. We discuss her rich family history of military service, how she should have gone from the Army to the Air Force (not vice versa), her experiences on a Female Engagement Team in Iraq, her writing process, and dog farms? In the Free Fire Area, we discuss our last meals on earth because Bruce Willis and Ben Affleck were unable to save us.
