Hosts Nigel Poor and Earlonne Woods co-created the show that launched in 2017 while Earlonne was incarcerated at San Quentin State Prison, where Nigel was a volunteer teaching photography.

It's a question we ask (and get asked) all the time: “How are you?” And normally we just respond with “Fine!” even if we’re totally dying inside, so everyone can go about their day. But it’s not always all that fine, is it? “Terrible, Thanks For Asking” is a show by author Nora McInerny that lets real people get real honest about how they’re really doing. It’s sometimes sad, sometimes funny, and almost always both. A production of Feelings & Co. In case you didn't know, we're still making ep ...

In this episode of Duty & Valor, we honor the extraordinary life of Rear Admiral Bruce McCandless, a hero of the Pacific Theater during World War II. When the USS San Francisco faced near destruction during the Battle of Guadalcanal, McCandless, then a communications officer, took command after his superiors were killed or incapacitated. His quick thinking and courageous leadership not only saved his ship but also played a pivotal role in securing a critical victory.
