458: Johnny Joey Jones—Mind Your Wake

In honor of Veterans Day, Mike speaks with Marine Staff Sergeant (Ret.) Johnny Joey Jones, who served eight years as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal technician in Iraq and Afghanistan—where he lost both legs in the line of duty. These days, he's on a mission to highlight those who serve, from American warfighters to first responders, which he does powerfully in his new book, Beyond the Badge. It's a honest tribute to those who run toward the danger when others run away. With his trademark humility and humor, Johnny talks about courage, purpose, and the importance of minding the wake you leave behind.
