The One About Throwing Hands At Waffle House
Damon Leggins and Andamo McCulloughEpisode Description
In this jam-packed episode, Damon and Damo recap their weeks and Damo owes a few people some apologies. A question from a listener leads to a very inspired conversation about being competitive within your rank (peer) group. Salute to Captain Kimberly Johnson Jones, the first African-American woman to assume the duties as Reactor Officer of a nuclear powered aircraft carrier. The brother of a marine killed during the evacuation of Afghanistan committed suicide at annual memorial of the passing of his brother. What’s one change that the Navy has made that you wish they didn’t? Damo has an interesting “Do Better” segment. Y’all already know we had to talk about this $115k giveaway. Let’s take a deeper dive into A2P. This leads to a conversation about college tuition assistance which leads to a conversation about De’reek Banks (a modern day “Robin Hood”?) The Marine Corps is doing away with “tape” for calculating BCA and modernizing the process using advanced technology. Damon and Damo discuss hospitality and greeting strangers. Damo brings up a thought about the criteria to be an Officer in the Navy and contemplates the value of a degree when it comes to ability to lead. These and more topics are discussed on this episode.
