Semper Fi and Fun
The Semper Fi and Fun Podcast is a dynamic platform that brings together the inspiring stories of athletes and veterans, showcasing their remarkable journeys in both sports and military service. Each episode invites guests to share their unique experiences, highlighting the common theme of transitioning into life beyond their respective fields. A significant focus is placed on "Taking off the Uniform," which addresses the hardest part of leaving professional service or athletics—the emotional and identity challenges that come with stepping away from a life defined by competition and duty. This engaging dialogue not only sheds light on their achievements but also emphasizes the importance of resilience and adaptability in navigating new challenges.
Among our notable guests is Chuck, a two-time NCAA Division I National Champion in Skiing who proudly represented the University of Colorado Ski Team from 2012 to 2016. We also feature Chad, a dedicated combat veteran who served in the U.S. Army from 1995 to 2006, with deployments to Iraq and Africa. Through their stories, we illustrate the determination that characterizes both athletic and military pursuits, encouraging listeners to embrace their own paths forward and find inspiration in the journeys of others.
