In episode 57, I talk with retired EOD Commander Stephen Phillips. We discuss his time in the surface Navy as a SWO, Surface Warfare Officer, where he pursued the EOD special program he ultimately joined. Once an EOD officer, he never lost his love for writing and began to put down on paper stories in book form, "Proximity."After his service, Dr. Stephen Phillips published two more books, "The Recipient's Son" and the soon-to-be-released "A Poisoned Chalice."

In episode 56 I sit down with Hart Holmberg, the president of the EOD Motorcycle Club, to talk about the history, purpose, and mission of the club. Hart, a retired Marine EOD Technician, was drawn to the club while still on active duty and has found a family of like-minded individuals who are bonded around a central theme: to never forget those who have gone before and paid the ultimate sacrifice and to serve those left behind. Join me in learning about the EOD Motorcycle Club and dispelling some misunderstood myths. It was an informative discussion that I enjoyed immensely, and I know you will as well.

SGM(ret) Mike Vining had a legendary career in the Army first as Army EOD then as a Delta Force Operator. With medals from around the world and stories to match he is an absolute professional warrior with a humble and giving spirit. In this podcast Mike talks about his career, how it unfolded, and shares a variety of stories that are exciting, serious, funny, and historical. One of my favorite parts of my talk with SGM Vining was his passion for reviving the history of EOD and telling the stories of those who have past.In addition to his extensive career, Mike now spends a good amount of time researching EOD techs from the past, digging through records so that they are not forgotten. A Nobel and selfless act that is helping to preserve the history of EOD.Support | EOD Warrior Foundationhttps://eod-wf.org/support/Flag Program | EOD Warrior Foundationhttps://eod-wf.org/flag-program/Virtual EOD Memorial | EOD Warrior Foundationhttps://eod-wf.org/category/virtual-memorial/---------------MusicAction Rock, LesFM (License ID: 6b0bba7b5a37492eb28321c580d1f562)--------------- SOCIAL MEDIA:Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/echo_oscar_delta/⁠Linktree: https://linktr.ee/EchoOscarDeltaDonate: ⁠https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=FXKKVEPDZSW7E⁠Linkedin: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerron-clark-b7144599/⁠Amazon Affiliate: https://amzn.to/4018uus⁠-----------------PODCAST LINKS:Spotify: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/7syOy5nkVvozfYVhO0GaV9⁠Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLbV3wd_LX6E2DHWKhe-50QAmazon Music: ⁠https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/4f39a29e-3801-443c-9380-0fc7a51d0ab2/echo-oscar-delta⁠Apple Podcast: ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/echo-oscar-delta/id1662351080⁠Google Podcast: ⁠https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy9iZTk0NGQ3OC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw⁠iHeartRadio: ⁠https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-echo-oscar-delta-106737255/⁠Castbox: ⁠https://castbox.fm/channel/id5349816?utm_source=podcaster&utm_medium=dlink&utm_campaign=c_5349816&utm_content=Echo%20Oscar%20Delta-CastBox_FM&country=us⁠-----------------
