Embrace the Suck with Nick Bare and Chase Chewning

Hosted by Army veterans Chase Chewning (SSG) and Nick Bare (1LT), this podcast expands on the philosophy that sometimes we have to endure what we must in order to advance on the battlefield of life - EMBRACE THE SUCK. This is a very common phrase heard in the US Armed Forces, a mindset that serves us now in our civilian lives just as much as it did while on active duty.
