Navy SEAL Museum Friendly Fire Podcast Podcast

The podcast where two old military friends with often opposing opinions come together to lob friendly grenades at each other about current events–and still part as friends.

  1. 12/10/2022

    Our Oath and Our Duty

    Our Ukraine involvement and what have we ever gained from going to war? The World Order and how nations behave with each other. US military recruitments rates down; how can we make the military a viable option for young people today? The "shiny" image of our military or its dysfunctional one? It's not a social experiment, and the military doesn't reflect the politics of the United States.

    The Deconstruction of Rick Kaiser

    Tim pummels Rick with some tough questions. Up in arms over gun control and qualifying crew-served weapons. Triggering the need for firearms legislation. Maximum liberty, maximum responsibility. Tax laws and Federal programs. Should the Federal Government use tax law to influence State Government behavior? Jack Daniel’s Squires and the Museum’s Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Program. The due diligence of journalists and media bias.

    All for the Good of the Country

    “Kaiser Family, still in the fight.” Rick’s prosthetic leg: not a WWII amputation. A formula for blade length for amputees competing in running races. Supporting the COVID policy and states all stumbling over it. Criminals versus the mentally ill: alternatives for helping those in a mental health crisis to avoid jail time. The correlation between mass shootings and our country’s deficit in care for the mentally ill. Building cities under sea level, storm surges, and houses on stilts.

    On the Shoulders of Giants

    Florida’s “common sense governor” and Miami’s bikini-clad beaches. “The Compact” at Duke University and misbehavior. Rick, a person of the people. Gold Star Families visit the Museum’s Memorial Garden and its healing impact. The “non-crisis” at the border and FEMA’s involvement. “Walls don’t work” while COVID continues to crush businesses. BUD/S in quarantine times. Admiral Sands, innovation, and SOCAFRICA.

    Chasing Symptoms

    Retired Master Chief Museum Assistant Executive Director Ken Corona joins the conversation. A whole buffet of stupidity and shutting down young SEALs. Tim’s tenure at Duke with motivated students, Millennials before there were Millennials, believers in democracy, vitriol over the immigration crisis at the border. Precious Memorial Day at the Museum. Speaking about the struggles of our Special Operations Forces and suicide.

    Only the Dead Have Seen the End of War

    The complicated issue of immigration at our border and the need for reform with policy. How much power do citizens have over governance? The “distasteful” position of politicians. Rick’s time at Great Lakes as a cadre for Naval Special Warfare recruitment. Today’s challenges recruiting for the military–should the uniform services be presented as a more mainstream career option? Educating the public about the many benefits and responsibilities of the military.

    Democracy is Not Easy

    Exercising our First Amendment rights and cancellation. Integrating schools with the use of vouchers and the comprehensive cost of public education. “Sending” Tim some tough questions. Is the government inherently inefficient? Connected, demanding, consuming Americans. Amazon, the 800-pound gorilla. The need for diversification of economy.
