Host Randy Miller discusses topics of interest to veterans and interviews guests on a wide variety of topics.
We welcome a fascinating guest from our wonderful partner, Disney, Walt Disney Archivist Steven Vagnini. Steven joined the Archives staff as an archivist full-time in 2010. He has written articles for Disney publications, spoken to Disney groups, and produced programs for D23 events. In 2018, he transferred to Walt Disney Imagineering. Disney is turning 100 on October 16th, and Randy and Steven talk about all the incredible ways Disney fans celebrate historic milestones.
We welcome Scott Shea, the author of “All the Leaves are Brown: How the Mamas and Papas Came Together and Broke Apart,” to the show to talk about the great music coming out of California during the times of the Mamas and the Papas. Randy talks with Scott about his new book and what fans of the Mamas and the Papas can expect from his excellent new band biography.

Gary and Randy discuss how the comedy business has changed over the years and much more in this fun segment.
We welcome a fascinating guest with an even more fascinating topic: Dr. David Scheel talking about his new book “Many Things Under a Rock: The Mysteries of Octopuses.” Randy and Dr. Scheel go in-depth (get it?) on our 8-legged aquatic friends and answers nearly all of Randy’s questions on one of nature’s most curious underwater creatures, including what IS the proper plural form of “octopus?”
We welcome Marine Corps veteran David Bostic to the show to talk about his military career and transition to the civilian world as the Military Recruiting Manager for John Deere. Randy and David discuss a great program that John Deere has undertaken, the John Deere Military Skills program, which is open to current and former service members, spouses, and eligible dependents. David gives us all the details, and we salute John Deere for their work in supporting our military members and their families.
We welcome comedian Tom Papa back to the show to discuss his new book “We’re All In This Together, So Make Some Room.” Randy and Tom talk about the book and some of the funny stories it contains. Tom teaches us the power of “No Thank You” and much more.
