<p>This week on Two Grumpy Vets, the three of us catch up after a wild couple of weeks. I share the saga of my blue-screened laptop and migrating to Linux, plus a big ham radio win: new antenna, long-distance QSOs to Scotland, Russia, Italy, Spain, New Zealand, and even the North Cook Islands—all while gearing up for a 48-hour contest. We also swap stories from Cruisin’ The Coast, where 10,334 registered hot rods turned the Gulf Coast into a rolling car museum and we watched old-school gassers tear down the strip from 30 feet off the finish line. Bryan opens up about a serious family development as his daughter leaves an abusive situation; we discuss trauma bonds, boundaries, and practical next steps. We riff on balanced budgets, shutdown spin, daylight savings time (abolish it!), winter temps, and a dog named Bella who can clear a patio wall like an Olympian. We close with show updates: growing UK listenership, download spikes, and how you can support via time, talent, or treasure—no sponsors, just three vets talking life and laughing through it.<br /><br /><strong>Email Us:</strong><br />Rich -- mailto://[email protected]<br />Bryan -- mailto://[email protected]</p> <p><br />If you are struggling with life please reach out to The Suicide Life Line - Dial 988<br /><strong>The world needs you here. </strong></p>
