We want to share that our friend Jordan Leitsch’s service dog Tyr has passed away.

Tyr was a great dog! He went on many many trips with Jordan. Tyr lived more life in 3 years than most dogs live their whole life. I had the pleasure of travel with Tyr a few times. He was always getting attention from the ladies!
We want to send our condolences to Jordan and the family today. We love you Tyr! Thanks for the memories! ❤️

Veteran hiring has lost its way. 👎
It’s no longer about finding the best candidate—it’s about PR stunts and social media clout. The hard truth: most companies aren’t prepared to support veterans or service members.

They market a “veteran-friendly culture” but lack the systems, training, and understanding to back it up. And let’s be honest—military service alone doesn’t automatically make someone a great employee. There are some nasty people who have worn the uniform, and yet they’re being rewarded with incredible jobs and responsibilities simply because of the title “veteran.”

If companies want to honor veterans, they need to stop with the performative gestures and start focusing on real preparation, accountability, and meaningful support. Veteran hiring shouldn’t be a PR stunt. It should be about building trust, opportunity, and true impact.

My name is Ryan Lonergan. I am an Iraq war veteran.

New Sponsor Alert Creative Crusts Pizza✅

Met up with my friend Shawn Brokaw today, and now guests on the podcast and veterans on my hunting trips are in for a treat—healthy, protein-packed pizza!

Tried two different kinds today and they were ridiculously good. The crust? Made from chicken—meaning high protein, low carb, and made right here in the Fox Valley.

Sold all over Wisconsin, these pizzas are a game-changer for anyone who wants to eat better without giving up flavor.

Go check them out and support a local business doing it right!

Normal Thursday Activities✅
From VA Home Loans, Podcasts, to machine guns — my calendar stays diverse.

Blessed to have the flexibility to make content and do unconventional things for my job and company — like holding a belt-fed machine gun on a Thursday.

Behind the laughs, my mission stays the same: making sure service members and veterans know the real facts about the VA Home Loan, disability benefits, education, employment, community resources, and transitioning.

Because freedom is great — but so is financial literacy. 🇺🇸

☕ Coffee Time at the BBQ Competition

Saturday morning, I treated all the BBQ competitors and friends to fresh Black Rifle Coffee Company pour-overs. We used freshly ground beans and a 16:1 water-to-coffee ratio — the sweet spot for a perfect cup.

The best part? The casual conversations that followed. People stopped by to watch, ask questions, and learn the process. The goal wasn’t just to make coffee — it was to share the experience and show others how easy it is to brew something amazing.

Good coffee, good friends, and good BBQ — that’s a winning combo.

Thank you to OffgridVisuals for capturing so many great moments! 🙌🏻🇺🇸
