About this episode
What does it mean to serve your country after the uniform comes off? Today on The Next Big Idea Daily, two veterans answer that question in very different — and deeply inspiring — ways. Rye Barcott, co-founder of With Honor, profiles ten Americans from both sides of the aisle in Courage Can Save Us, arguing that moral courage and bipartisan service are exactly what this moment demands. And Jake Wood, Marine scout-sniper turned disaster-relief leader, traces his own journey from the battlefield to the nonprofit world in Once a Warrior. Together, they make a powerful case that the mission never really ends — it just changes shape.
