Welcome back to another episode of When Does the [ __ ] End? — where we dive deep into the real stories behind the headlines. Today, I’m honored to have Josh Ekoff, a Purple Heart and Bronze Star Army veteran, join me to share his powerful journey from combat injury to recovery. Josh opens up about his traumatic brain injury, the challenges of rehabilitation, and how organizations like JCS (Joshua Chamberlain Society) played a critical role in helping him regain independence.
From his days in Iraq on route clearance missions to pushing through limits that doctors said he’d never overcome, Josh’s story is one of grit, brotherhood, and perseverance. We also talk candidly about what it means to ask for help, the brotherhood between service branches, and the importance of community for wounded veterans.
Whether you’re a veteran, caregiver, or just someone who appreciates stories of resilience, this episode offers insight and inspiration straight from the heart.
Grab your favorite drink — we start, as always, with a shot of Screwball — and join us for this unforgettable conversation.
