The guys open by clearing up a discrepancy from the last show before getting into the recent Brooks Brothers cancellation and catching up on what’s been happening in their lives. They recognize the Marine Corps Birthday, welcome back a government employee returning after the shutdown, and show love for Damon’s birthday. The conversation shifts into how people battle personal demons and what leaders often miss when they only look at the surface. The team discusses whether commands should “roll out the red carpet” for inspectors and what people misunderstand about what a Command Master Chief actually does. Damo states that leadership can’t be treated like a task. Aaron brings back a concept from Relentless involving toxic perfection, leading into a discussion about sacrifice and success. Damon touches on the Navy’s reported 99% retention rate for FY25. Aaron’s “Do Better” of the week is Be More Informed, which sets up a deeper debate between Damo and Aaron about whether everyone needs to care about politics.
What does it mean to be “apolitical”? The guys discuss. The topics and more are covered in this episode.
