This special veterans edition of “Get Real” with David DesRosiers speaks with: Decorated Navy SEAL Jason Redman about TurboVets<\/a>, an AI-driven platform designed to make it easier for veterans to access care and benefits <\/p>\n

“From the very beginning, we taught you how to be a leader. We taught you how to be a member of a team. We taught you to have a mission. We taught you to overcome adversity. But those skill sets are not translating out into the civilian sector,” he said. “I’ve lost too many friends, including my best friend, to suicide.” “If it’s used correctly, what AI will do is reduce the administrative burden that so often just engrosses all of us,” he said about TurboVets. “Especially for data management.” <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Frank Siller of the Tunnel to Towers Foundation<\/a> about the organization’s effort to house homeless veterans and their families <\/p>\n

On the commitment to ending veteran homelessness, Siller said: “I use the word ‘eradicate’ because we don’t do anything on a small scale. If we’re going to do it, we’re going to do it right.” “Of the 27,500 homeless vets that we’ll have off the street by the end of this year\u202615,000 children were on the streets with them,” he said. “That’s what $ 11 a month does. Could you imagine that?” <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Documentarian Carl David about See Through the Darkness<\/a>, which examines PTSD, suicide and recovery among veterans and first responders. <\/p>\n

“War is hell, and our soldiers bring that hell home with them,” DesRosiers said. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The program closes with a two-part interview with Green Beret veteran and former Virginia delegate Nick Freitas on rebuilding Western values, rejecting wokeism and restoring a culture capable of producing responsible, courageous men. <\/p>\n

“Western civilization didn’t just appear out of the ether because a bunch of secular humanists got together and decided, ‘Wouldn’t it be cool to have representative government and free markets?'” Frietas said. “The era of conservatives just kind of standing there and taking it is over.” <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
