Happy Memorial Day. This is the day we pay homage to all those who didn’t come home.
Tisha and Damo show up on this special Memorial Day Weekend episode! Damo starts off by addressing the “Diversity” statements from the last episode and making sure that it was clear we he and Damon stands on the topic. Speaking of Damon, congrats on being selected for Master Chief, now we wait. Or do we pick orders? Or do we wait as we pick orders? Who knows? Congrats to everyone that heard their names or received the phone call. Memorial Day is observed and the reason we celebrate is discussed. Condolences to the family of Staff Sgt. Lonel Springs Sr., who recently died due to self imposed afflictions, calling out leadership errors, during his last Facebook live that went viral last week. Tisha remembers Tina Turner. Weekend plans are discussed. Damo talks about his last day in the office and his going-away event. Philadelphia just banned “Pooh Shiesty masks,” and of course Damo covers this. Somehow this conversation leads to a retelling of a military housing party story. Saint (Damo’s dog) finally gets his “15 minutes of fame” with Damo ranting about being a “dog parent.” The main story of today is Tisha’s career. As we head into her last week in the Navy, we wanted to give her the proper send off, highlighting career highs, lows, and favorite mentors throughout her 20 year tenure in the United States Navy. Thank you Tisha for your honorable service! Fair winds and following seas. These topics and more are covered in this episode.
