You're listening to Software Radio, Special Operations Military Nails, and straight talk with the guys in the community.

Hey, what's going on? Welcome back to Software Radio. I am your host, Rad.

And today, I have driven a coin today, and he is someone who has worked in the military for 15 years.

He has transitioned into doing what he loves, and that's running a podcast called This Week Explained.

And it's found everywhere that podcasts are including like Software Rep Radio.

So if you go check out This Week Explained, now it's a geopolitical podcast.

He touches on a wide range of everything going on in the world, as well as, you know, I do as well, which is why he wrote in and said,

Hey, Rad, I'd love to be on your esteemed show. And that word esteemed. I stared at it. I was like, God, that's a nice word.

You know, so I just want to say to you, welcome to the show.

Hey, thanks a lot. Thanks for having me on. I'm super excited about this. And I always say I'm a very genuine person.

And when I say words, words mean things to me. And when I say words, it is because that's exactly how I feel.

So to say that Software Radio is an esteemed podcast, esteemed show. It really is. It tackles everything that is near and dear to my heart.

And so I just really appreciate what you guys do.

You know, it's an honor to be in this position to be able to host the show. And, you know, it's out there forever.
