Damon and Damo open this episode with a discussion about Tom Brady’s recent comments regarding how the military compares to being in the NFL. Damo takes a moment to introduce the podcast to unfamiliar listeners and followers. Damon give his medical update. The role of the Casualty Assistance Calls Officer (CACO) is discussed, along with if there are some collateral duties that we should try our best to not “volunteer” people without their buy-in. Who is Mike Itkis and what the hell did he do? Just listen. It’s priceless. More talk about maurijuana. NASA confirms DART mission redirected an asteroid in orbit. Would the military ensure that all active service members are on the ark to depart Earth during an extinction level event? What is the expectation of someone who’s retirement has been denied? Do Better: Damon’s mad at the pharmacy again and Damo’s mad at himself. There are also those people that sign up to do things that they know they aren’t available for. Listeners, we may have to look out for Damon after this episode. SECDEF Austin announced that the Pentagon will pay for abortion travel expenses. Military sexual assault victims could be eligible for back benefits. Damon takes a phone call from a family member at a recruiting station. Shout out to Petty Officer Second Class Hernandez for letting the guys keep the audio! What does is mean to be “woke”? Seriously, we want to know. What’s Damon upset about now? Does anyone ever reach out to the people on the bottom of the NAVADMINs? That 2023 Cyberawareness Challenge is a little harder than you might expect. Be prepared. These and more topics are covered in this episode. Remember to follow the ‘Permission to Speak Freely’ podcast on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and subscribe on YouTube.
