EP:5 We're Throwing the Bedpan at Workplace Violence

Dee Tox, MZ, and Shannon Book continue the fun in Part II!  With dark humor, sarcasm, and a swear word here and there, they discuss how Shannon made the very rough transition out of the military, what he lost and gained during this period, and how music, as the only constant in his life, was a saving grace.  Listen to the end for a special treat from Shannon.
