Brandons 45th birthday has come and gone but that doesn't mean we didn't celebrate. We set up at our buddy Paul's house and setup the podcast equipment under the canopy for the poolside of the party. Grilling was going down all day and so was the pop shots at different branches, we had all military branches covered at this party minus the Coast Guard. Jennifer sat down with us to discus her life in the Air Force. Retiring just a couple years ago, Jennifer achieved the rank of Chief Master SGT and lived all over the world in her career. As always good times and lots of fun were had by all. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/grunts-in-appalachia/support

Hey Hey we made it! Episode 100 and it has everything that the Grunts in Appalachia have ever done! There's a crazy story time about the festivities that took place while Brandon was on Vacation in Lake of the Ozarks. It just so happens that two of his compadres that were there at the lake were also on this episode. Introducing Paul and Travis both veterans, Paul a retired Army First Sgt. Travis served in the Air Force. Both add not only some clarity but also some flare to the stories of their feats at the lake. In Walks Dave Denning, a repeat offender on the show. Dave opens up on the second half and really talks about the vaccines, hospital shortages the mask mandates and hospital policies. It was pretty cool to hear about these things from a doctor that now sees things differently looking in hind sight. Lots of laughs and some interesting topics are covered on this episode. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/grunts-in-appalachia/support

Welcome back ya'll! This week Gorgeous George and Brandon sit down and talk about the weather. Not really though. We have a discussion about war in movies and what happened to the good ones.

The topics move around and land on motorcycles, riding, and safety or lack there of. We hope you all enjoy episode 99 and get ready for episode 100, it should be a big one! Stay safe out there this memorial day! Grunts In Appalachia out! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/grunts-in-appalachia/support

Gorgeous George and John sit down in Boots Spirits and Feed, an awesome country western bar in downtown Huntington, WV. Topics of disscussion were a little more on the serious note this week with some jumbled humor. There's so much going on in the world it's hard not to talk about the daily hot button issues. The expiration of Title 42 and the stats of illegal immigrants coming through our Southern border are staggering to say the least. We jumped all over it and gave our 2 cents on it of course. Climate change and what in the world is going on down in South Africa, maybe something worthwhile to hear about since it might be happening in the near future here in America. Wellness Check was great this week and its something that everyoen should start to implement in their daily lives so we can have a better world and more productive people.

Happy Mothers Day to all you fabulous ladies out there doing the mothering thing. For this week we have special guest Neera Burner, adopted out of India as a baby and raised in Appalachia. Currently an influencer that has works with and has worked with major companies that we all know and love. John and Brandon have a pretty good spat going back and forth about the merits of public education and homeschooling. It was an argument that the public should take note of because it was off the hip, neither one of us knew the others perspective and we had a tense debate, it stayed within the parameters of respect and at the end of it we proved that you can disagree and still be perfectly fine with someone else with opposing beliefs. Now back to Neera who unfortunately had to moderate that one but she seemed interested to hear both sides of the argument. Neera let something off her chest on this episode so for the wellness check we discuss the seasons of life when it comes to any sort of relationship. It got a little emotional but it was so genuine and the pain so recent that you will feel the emotion when she attempts to delve into it. Big shoutout to Steve and Creekside Tavern for allowing us to setup and record there, they've got great bar food and drinks if you're ever down the Wayne County way. If you're feeling a little sluggish make sure to pick up a CAMO energy shot! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/grunts-in-appalachia/support

Brandon goes off on the Bud Light controversy but we aren't going to tell you here what was said, guess you'll just have to take a listen. John talks about his Washington D.C trip this last week and all the cool things there are to do there. Artificial Intelligence was also another topic of discussion when it comes to job loss and the ability for robots to basically take over most everyone's jobs in the near future. We made this one a little longer because its been a few weeks since the three of us got to sit down together. Enjoy this weeks episode, we know we enjoyed making it for you. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/grunts-in-appalachia/support
