Old Ranger, New Dad
Life doesn’t come with a manual, but if it did, it’d probably be written in crayon by a sleep-deprived parent and edited by an old Ranger with too many scars to count :-)
Welcome to Old Ranger, New Dad—a vlog and podcast where hard truths meet full authenticity. No fluff, no sugar-coating—just real talk about life’s struggles, triumphs, and everything in between.
Through my journey—from the battlefield to the home front—I’ll over-share the obstacles I’ve faced, the battles I’ve fought (both external and internal), and the lessons I’ve learned along the way, but like a Father would for his son, not like an influencer would for a 'Follower.'
This channel is about perseverance, faith, and finding purpose in the struggle. It’s always upbeat, always real, and always aimed at inspiring and equipping you for your own fight.
Whether it’s parenting, leadership, resilience, or faith, every episode delivers value. And while I don’t shy away from adult topics, I approach them with wisdom and respect—ensuring Old Ranger, New Dad is a Christian, family-friendly space you don’t have to worry about your kids overhearing. Because let’s face it, the world throws enough garbage their way—I won’t be adding to the pile.

Episode 1: Real Life "TAKEN" Story (Woman kidnapped in Malaysia)
Random phone call comes into the US Embassy in Malaysia, Marine Security Guard (MSG) SGT Parmer answers the phone to hear a woman crying and saying she's been kidnapped. She's traveling alone in Malaysia and was supposed to meet a guy she's been talking to online and when they met, he took her.
This could be real but is Very Likely a prank call, especially on Saturday at 2pm...
SGT Parmer takes a huge risk to contact Dept of State (Not his Marine chain-of-command as he should) but will it pay off, or will his career end before it begins, will this prank-call turn out to be real? If so, can they reach her in time?...Subscribe to hear Real stories across Many important topics.
