A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

You are providing a great service! I appreciate the support, the information, and most of all the inspiration! I'm going on 4 years out of the service after almost 31 years in and still feel like I'm in transition. Hearing the stories of other veterans really give me a boost and renewed motivation. Thank you! SALUTE!

The Stars and Stripes is my favorite news source and always will be since my first overseas deployment. I loved listening to their first podcast season “Force Fore Hire” on private military contracting and am really looking forward to this season “Military Matters.” All their stories are excellent on military news.

I am retired military living in Fort Hood Family Housing, and I have done my best to remain actively informed on the search for SPC Guillén ever since I first knew she was missing. This podcast released quite a few details that I was unaware of, but also that I have seen in additional venues often enough that I know not to question. I truly do wish that there was an “easy button” to remind leadership that admitting failure & assuming accountability for problems does not make leaders weak and also that the respect of subordinates is far more valuable than a positive OER / NCOER. It hurts my heart that such leadership is either the exception to the rule, or a punchline to a bad barracks joke...
