  • Summary

  • A podcast complete with a beard, tattoos, and no fuc*s

    The Basic Vet is about the modern veteran.

    There are unique struggles that veterans face on a day to day basis.

    One of the most frustrating struggles is adapting to civilian life again, especially after a war and a decade of mental re-programming.

    The Basic Vet explores all the frustrations that don’t really get talked about or seen on a regular basis.

    Even if you’ve never served, you’ll get an inside look at what happens to those that did.

    Maybe you’ll find out that you’re better off being a clueless civilian. 

    This is as Basic as it gets.

    A little about millenials. This is just to keep me in the seat recording. I decided not to go full blast on the generation since I myself, am one. All hail the Elder Millenial!

Good sh*t

I love listening to Marines talk about random sh*t. I also love to see Marines do their own thing and get that money. Keep it up Shannon!

Not just for military veterans.

Everyone needs to hear this! Mr. Smith tells it how it is and doesn't sugar coat anything. It's a refreshing rarity in today's watered down world.
