Join Shaner as he celebrates the Marine Corps Birthday, honors Veterans Day and discusses one of the most iconic Marines ever, Dan Daly, a legendary badass.

Daniel Joseph Daly was born on November 11, 1873 in Glen Cove, New York. By size, he was 5 ft 6 in and weighed 132 lbs but established himself as an amateur
boxer. He enlisted in the United States Marine Corps on January 10, 1899. Daly joined the Marine Corps hoping to fight in the Spanish-American War however, the war ended while he was going through training at the Brooklyn Navy Yard.

Although he missed the Spanish-American War, he saw combat in China, Haiti and in France during WWI. Daly was one of two Marines to receive the Medal of Honor for two separate combat engagements. The other Marine was Major General Smedley Butler, whom we highlighted in our 5th episode. They served together in a few locations and Butler described Daly as "The fightin'est Marine I ever knew!" 

Daly was reportedly offered an officer's commission twice to which he responded that he would rather be "an outstanding sergeant than just another officer."

This episode features power couple Brianne Davis and Mark Gantt.  They are actors, writers, directors and producers.  Together they run the film and television company "Give and Take Productions". 

Brianne Davis is one of the most electric talents to storm Hollywood by force. Brianne starred in one of the most highly anticipated new dramas with History Channel’s military series; “SIX,” is an ambitious drama that follows Navy SEAL Team Six. Brianne jumped off the screen as 'Lena,' a teacher and wife of lead SEAL Team Six commander 'Joe Graves'. 

Davis has also proved her talent as a big screen actress. Her first lead role came in 2005 with the blockbuster hit JARHEAD, a drama centered on the life of U.S. marine sniper Anthony Swofford, played by Jake Gyllenhaal. During the Gulf War, Swofford struggled to cope with being away from home and feared that his girlfriend, played by Brianne, was cheating on him while he was away. 

She also starred in horror film PROM NIGHT alongside Brittany Snow, Kellan Lutz and Idris Elba, as the flicks somewhat comedic relief.  

Not only is Brianne an actor, she is also an accomplished director and producer. Thriving behind the camera, as much as in front, she has produced five films with her production company Give & Take Productions, and has directed three features: The Night Visitor 2: Heather’s Story, Psychophonia and Transfer. She is currently pitching a TV series she created with Jana Kramer and Lakeshore Entertainment. 

When not in front of the camera, or in the director’s chair, Brianne’s undeniable passion is in supporting our troops. She can often be found traveling the world on various USO tours and has so far visited 15 bases. 

Mark Gantt has had a diverse, 20-year career in the industry, he has learned the business from the ground up, and had the good fortune of collaborating with top directors, including Steven Soderbergh, David O. Russell, Sam Raimi, and Robert Rodriguez.  He is an actor, writer, director, producer and photographer.  

His feature directorial debut, Murder In Mexico, starring Colin Egglesfield, premiered on Lifetime and was well received by both critics and audiences. He also directed a dark action/drama pilot for Ron Howard and Brian Grazer’s New Form Digital called Intricate Vengeance. 

As a writer and producer, Mark is best known for co-creating, producing and starring in the ground breaking, Streamy award-winning series, The Bannen Way for Crackle and Sony Pictures Television.  Mark has created successful spots for ESPN and Nissan’s Heisman House campaign, along with popular and effective branded campaigns for GMC, AOL and Lifetime.

In January of 2020, Mark released his second feature, indy thriller "Model Citizen" which was shot in New Mexico. He’s also hard at work on a number of TV and Feature properties in various stages of development.
