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.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
