Damon is not around. He left Tisha and Damo on their own to hold down the fort. Damo details what he’s been up to for the last few weeks. Tisha has deleted her social media and explains why. Rest well to Senior Airman Roger Fortson who was killed in his apartment by a Florida sheriff’s deputy earlier this month. A bunch of news on advancement and selection board results were released. Let’s talk about the Senior Enlisted Marketplace: One Year (or two) later. Tish and Damo discuss potential ideas for the CPO season as it will be affected by the Senior Enlisted Marketplace. Damo’s shocked that people are still not getting “accepted” during CPO initiations. The CNO’s CCS was secretly recording crashing out about diversity. Do Better: Dear Navy, Leave Southwest Airlines alone (Damo). The classmate who wants to be the instructor (Damo). People who put too much energy into getting their supervisors fired (Tisha).  What’s the difference between a close proximity move and receiving BAH based on your dependents’ location and how do they intersect? ELD numbers are low, we need to do something. The duo answers questions from listeners. Newsflash: Military servicemembers dance. Junior Sailors are in for a nice pay bump! A young Sailor asks for some advice after being caught stealing from a self-checkout machine. The USS Carney made her triumph return from an honorable deployment. Coming off of the video CNN released showing Sean “Diddy” Combs violently attacking Cassie, we want to plug the Family Advocacy Program and discuss domestic violence.
