Episode 471: Veterans in Fiction; The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

The Blasters and Blades Podcast

The Blasters & Blades Podcast Today is Veteran’s Day in the United States, or Remembrance Day if you’re from anywhere else. Because we’re a veteran owned and focused podcast, we decided to gather some veterans to talk about our service and how we’re represented in fiction. We gathered an amazing crew of crusty veteran creatives for this panel! That’s right, we had David Hensley, John Epple, Reginald Lewis, Rick Partlow and Shane Gries come on to talk shop with us. This was a fun interview, so check out this episode. Lend us your eyes and ears, you won't be sorry!! Co-Hosts: JR Handley (Author) (Grunt) Nick Garber (Comic Book Artist) (Super Grunt) We work for free, so if you wanna throw a few pennies our way there is a linked Buy Me A Coffee site where you can do so.
