Troopster, what a great idea. Starting a business that is designed for the military's needs in mind. Well, it makes sense when the founder of Troopster, Chelsea is Active Duty military. Her business parter, also military so he understands what people are wanting when deployed. 


Best part about Troopster? It's all online, and you can order a care package for your loved one, from the comfort of your home. That's amazing! 


Listen to Spouse Spouts today so you can learn more about this business! 

Black History Month is when we, as Americans, celebrate the contributions of African-Americans across our country. Let's learn about the history of the month, contributions of African Americans to our military, and the contributions of African Americans to the disability movement. 

It's a rich history, that inspires others to do more. Learning about how our African American community survived, when the odds were stacked against inspires many people today. 


The US Military has also, changed because of the contributions of African Americans.

The Gig Economy, Spouse Employment, and Tricare. It's time to have some frank discusions about all of these topics and more. 


What's the Gig Economy? It's flexible, contract work. It's helpful for military families, but is it good for long-term? 

Employment, why talk about employment? I'm talking about employment because it does have value, but it's not the only issue impacting families today. 

Military families are not single issue families. Right now we have families in crisis because of Tricare changes. Those families need our support.

After a lengthy hiatus, Spouse Spouts is back. It's taken Susan a little while to get it together and find new direction, but she did. 

Has the show changed? Yes it has. Dave has a new full-time job with The American Legion, and Susan is on her own. You'll get to hear all about the changes, upcoming episodes, a wish list of guests, a wish list for topics, and so much more. As always, the intent is to bring quality programming to you all. 

Tune in today as Susan returns to Spouse Spouts. 

Have you seen the "new" TRICARE changes? Totally bizarre to the outsiders, like us, so, we asked our favorite Military.com person Amy Bushatz to come on the show to explain what she has discovered about these changes and give us some skinny she can't put into her articles. She came through, and we're sure you will enjoy this episode!

Since Amy lives in Alaska, and runs a fairly busy schedule, we had to pre-record this episode. All this means is there won't be any calls answered in the show, you can still listen in at the normal time on-hold.
