On this episode of the Free Thought Project Podcast, join hosts Matt and Don as they engage in a deeply enlightening conversation with veterans Will Griffin and Joe Urgo, the driving forces behind "We Are Not Your Soldiers." This organization boldly stands as a counter-narrative to the enticing pitches of military recruiters. Through the lens of their own profound transformations, Will and Joe unfold their mission of journeying into schools, aiming to dissuade the youth from the path of military enlistment.

This episode delves into the heart-wrenching statistics of high veteran and military suicide rates, spotlighting the dire need for introspection and change within the system. While Will and Joe lean toward socialism as a potential route forward, the commonality is clear: an urgent need to address and redefine the massive military-industrial complex. Demonstrating the beauty of constructive dialogue, this episode underscores the importance of coming together, sharing perspectives, and coalescing around solutions, irrespective of differing ideologies.
