This week we have a very special guest, Lieutenant Governor of Florida, Jay Collins! To kick things off, Jay and Kyle discuss the difference between a quiet professional, and a silent professional, and how veteran stories need to be shared. They get into Jay's upbringing, his early military career, and what it was like being a dual military couple. Next up, the guys find common ground throughout their lives as they compare their time in the 82nd, SFAS, and more. Jay tells the story of how he performed surgery on his own arm, broke his back, and ultimately had his leg amputated. They discuss being broken, feeling the pressure to perform, and how nonprofits led Jay to recovery and politics. To wrap, Jay reflects on the responsibility he's been given, delivers a message to any veterans out there watching, and they debate which is better, North Carolina or Florida. Let's get into it.
