  • Episode 220 - THE PEOPLE'S PATRIOT PROJECT -- “What Does the Reflection in the Mirror Tell You?” 29 September 2024
    Oct 3 2024
    It is the end of Suicide Awareness Month, and we will not stop combating this deadly enemy. There is no single answer, no single fool-proof therapy or counseling method that will keep this from happening. It will take all of us and we will need to work together to keep this demon at bay. This is an episode that shares insights from William Stephens. From his beginnings in Desert Storm, with stories of his deployment as a forward observer, to where he is today, William Stephens shares his experiences and what led him to write his book, The Mirror. The Mirror delves into the lives of individuals grappling with various traumatic events, illnesses, and disorders, with the author personally navigating through post-traumatic stress disorder. It serves as an uplifting read for those battling their inner demons stemming from past traumas. Stephens labels this work as therapeutic poetry, comprising simple verses and short stories aimed at guiding readers on a journey beyond the surface. Drawing heavily from personal experiences, particularly within the military and relationships, from childhood to the present day. The Broken Mirror will be out soon - Halloween, which deals with post-service and how he is mending the relationships that were broken while he was gone. Stephens is a persistent person, and his perseverance is driven by the desire to get the word out and help others deal with things he has seen and experienced through service. The help he hopes to accomplish is not just for those who have served … it is for anyone who has PTSD they are dealing with.

  • Episode 219 - THE PEOPLE'S PATRIOT PROJECT: “Divided by Ignorance, United by Music” 22 September 2024 WGY6@6
    Sep 25 2024
    It is Suicide Awareness Month, and we need to be aware. There is no one answer, no one fool-proof therapy or counseling method that will keep this from happening. It will take all of us and we will need to work together to keep this demon at bay. This is an episode that shares an amazing man’s walk with grace. Joel Grant Faulisi shares the story of his beginnings and where he is now. There are so many impacts caused by broken bonds, but a military brother or sister separation due to a disagreement in political or ideological differences can leave a void in one’s life. It is difficult enough to navigate life after serving, but the added stress of brotherhood gone south is what Joel confronts in this episode. As he is also a musician, Joel sums it all up in the phrase, divided by ignorance, united by music. We also have some rocking music on this episode! The first song is I Bow My Head. This is a Patriotic song from Jack. The second song is When Doves Cry, which was a cover of a Prince song. Dedicated to the Minnesota part of the crew. The third song, Living A Lie, was written when he was taking some time off of music.

If you are struggling to find where you belong, and there is separation from your battle buddies, keep in mind that we can be divided by ignorance, united by music. Put some of that good vibes back in your life while you try to repair those relationships and find your place. Remembering is not enough, and there is #strength in asking for help, Even If It Hurts.

  • Episode 218 - THE PEOPLE'S PATRIOT PROJECT: “Like, What’s Your Jam” 15 September 2024 WGY6@6
    Sep 18 2024
    This is a very informational and inspirational episode. We are here with Deke Letson who runs the group Veterans Exploration Therapy. There is so much to this program, and the pride put into running this to make all trips come down to the fun and bonding. The best part, as Deke says, is when you run into some of those who have taken part in an adventure and you hear how it was the most exciting thing they have ever done. This was created out of a desire to help other veterans find their way without waiting for space or being on a cocktail of meds before getting some real help. Listen to Deke explain Like, What’s Your Jam, with a mix of his own story and how he came to found the Veterans Exploration Therapy group. We also have some rocking music on this episode! The first song is Better Be Tough by John Hensley. Our guest was talking about soldiers doing dumb soldier stuff and this song came to mind as he did. This may even be fitting for the saying of the night, Like, Whats Your Jam. The second song is Irish Road by Mikele Buck. This song is a nod to “Route Irish,” about Baghdad Airport Road which is a 7.5 mile road between the green zone and Baghdad Airport. This is such a great song.

    Sep 12 2024
    This is a very sensitive episode. It will take you through the stories of two men who served, who each have a different story to tell about their experience with suicide after service. There is no single situation that is the same as anybody else’s, but there are people in front of you that want you to be here tomorrow. We are here with Aaron Hudgins, the surviving spouse of SSG Jari J. Hudgins (US Army / Oklahoma Army National Guard as well as a 26-year veteran in the Oklahoma Army National Guard (AGR-Active Reserve Guard Reserve). Aaron has a lot to share, but in this episode he will delve into life’s extenuating circumstances after losing his wife to death from suicide. After his wife suffered a broken hip while training for her 3rd deployment at Fort Bliss Texas, she would be sent to the WTU at Fort Hood she was going to be medically retired. When she came home, she would die from suicide on 29 April 2018. She left behind 2 beautiful daughters and 3 stepsons. How she died wasn't a selfish act, she made a decision when facing an overwhelming enemy force, the enemy in her head in the form of depression, anxiety and PTSD. We also have Emmanuel, also known as the musician, Romeo Vaughn. He’s gone through addiction and crisis and admittedly attempted to take his own life. He has had some transformations in life recently by giving his life to Jesus. His first song is one he recently wrote, named His Name Is Jesus. He has another song that was a Crowder cover. The song was All My Hope. After Romeo heads out, we picked out a song from the list of our artists that seems very fitting, Shannon Book with You Are Not Alone.
