Permission To Speak Freely

Episode 119 | "Die With The Lie" (Feat. YNC [SEL] CJ Pride)

YN1 CJ Pride joins Damon and Damo, and with YN1 up for Chief this year, the conversation naturally starts with a talk about the FY25 CPO Season. To everyone who heard your name called today, congratulations, and best of luck through the season. Continue to lead. Fingers crossed that YN1 becomes YNC Select today. Damo asks YN1 for his opinion on the current competitive nature between First Class Petty Officers. Damon shares a story of an incident between a Master Chief and a junior Sailor following a Disciplinary Review Board. Double back to the conversation about being competitive, the guys discuss “truth in reporting.” The MCPON recently released a new message to all Chiefs about Self-Awareness. The guys speak on how they self-assess and self-regulate. Did Dwayne “The Rock” run off with the bag? CJ details what a “long day” is for a Yeoman and answers some YN-specific questions. Fatherhood is discussed. Damo asks how close to the ground CNP is and shouts out MyNavyHr again. YN1 highlights the joys of working for CNP. Damon remembers the time he got some book recommendations from FLTCM Terrell. Internet culture is getting out of hand. Damon opens up about his experience checking into a new ship. Did Damon deserve the turnover that he received? We’re still not over J. Cole bowing out of the “Battle of the Big Three.” Damo reads some listener-submitted “Do Betters.” Is Command Indoc necessary? I command PT burned out? Damo reveal that he was recently dealing with some health issues and what he’s learned. Shaving techniques are discussed.
