  • Episode 1: The Beginning
    2025/04/07

    Welcome to the very first episode of the Reserve Element Podcast. Recorded on the fly during a yearly ski trip, host Joe Gelinas—a U.S. Marine Corps veteran—sits down with three fellow Marines to kick things off the only way they know how: real, raw, and unfiltered.
    This episode captures the spirit of the podcast—brotherhood, reflection, and resilience—as these veterans share stories from their time in the service, life after the military, and the bonds that have kept them close through the years.
    Please excuse the sound quality—this one’s a little rough around the edges. Parts of the conversation have been narrated by Joe to add context and tie the memories together. It’s a fittingly unscripted start to a show built on honesty, shared experience, and the voices of those who’ve lived it.
