If you are not having sushi every Sunday you are not living. Anyways, come join Corey and me for some video game talk, NGB reenlistment bonus chaos, and more. Then we dive into the worst Alaska Air National Guard unit ever and explore the failures in leadership that led them to this conclusion. Lastly, we bring on Chris, a 19-year Army National Guard member who has had more jobs than anyone I have met in the Guard. We talk leaders, we talk failures, we talk success, and go over one of the best days in the Army we have heard yet. 

As always, support us by sharing our podcast. 

Thank you all! 

This week on The Nasty Guard Podcast we bring on the highly educated and resourceful Shayla. Shayla has a bachelor's degree from The City College of New York, a master's degree in Art Therapy & Counseling from Eastern Virginia Medical School, and is currently working on another master’s degree in Applied Neuroscience from King's College London. She has contributed to clinical and community research at New York University, Eastern Virginia Medical School, and the Department of Veterans Affairs. She is also a registered yoga teacher and certified in mindfulness for trauma and stress reduction. As a lifelong advocate of nonprofit community programs, Shayla devotes her time to supporting initiatives for veterans, the military, and survivors of war or armed conflict. She is currently the Sustainer Donor Manager at Paralyzed Veterans of America and serves on the Junior Board of Tuesday's Children. In this episode, we talk about art therapy, Shayla's background with the military, her calling to care for veterans, and discuss how little we know as military personnel about our mission. 

Thank you for the love and support!

This could be the most important podcast we've recorded thus far. This week we bring on Josh Halu CEO and co-founder of The Psychedelic Exchange. Josh and his team work tirelessly to connect veterans with treatment for mental illness. However, this team explores natural medicinal treatments such as Psilocybin, MDMA, and Ketamine. These new treatment modalities are showing some extremely promising research results, and are being hailed as insanely successful in saving the lives of veterans in crisis. This episode is packed full of Josh's personal stories, and us picking apart some of the taboo around these treatments. These conversations are how we move the needle forward and help more people.

First off, it is a joke. Relax children. That being said, we bring on Nora from @fubar_actaul and she discusses struggles as an influencer in the Army, she talks about her best days as an Army leader, and dives into why you need to move to Ohio. This episode is full of laughs and exposes a side of military influence that is usually undiscussed. For those of you who find this edgy or wild, I strongly recommend taking a prescription chill pill.

This week on the Nasty Guard Podcast, Cory and I reflect on some of the significant challenges we've encountered in an Army training environment, as well as our most memorable moments. From intense Carl G training and AT4 tracers to exhilarating experiences like jumping out of helicopters and handling Javelins, we delve into the diverse aspects of our military journey.

Our conversation extends to the major challenges faced by part-time service members, exploring the dynamic nature of operational tempo changes and the ensuing chaos that can impact our civilian lives. We recognize the resilience required to navigate these fluctuations successfully.
