Great trip to Tampa for the @militaryinfluencer conference. My @boldamericanpod crew got the opportunity to interview @secvetaffairs, along with man behind this awesome conference, @curtezriggs.
Loved our conversation about community, collaboration, connection, and how we can all work together to improve outcomes for our veterans.
Special shoutout to the team at @travismanionfoundation who did a tremendous job of building meaningful relationships and spreading the word about the work and impact our organization is having.
Thanks to everyone that said hi and shared their stories with me. Loved meeting ALL of you!

@travismanionfoundation 9/11 Heroes Run in Chicago
This wasn’t a race about pace or finish time, but about listening to everyone’s stories, remembering those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, and being grateful. #usna2029 #usma1994 #travismanionfoundation #september11 #travismanionheroesrun

Sometimes a 5k is more than “just a 5k”. The @travismanionfoundation 9/11 Heroes Run is that kind of 5k. Not about time or PRs, but about remembrance. Proud to be associated with TMF and the great work they do everyday. #travismanionfoundation #travismanionheroesrun #tmf

Cringe content from alum and people who “attended” an Academy is at an all time high. The beauty of any Academy is the allure of mystique and grandeur that you can’t find anywhere else. It’s like an open secret. That’s why you go, to develop, push yourself, and apply that into every day life AFTER you graduate. The more you saturate for views, the less daunting and impressive it becomes. My sincere take: The average person, to a certain extent, shouldn’t even be privy to what it’s like attending USMA (and maybe, even the other academies). It should be difficult - like West Point - to understand what it’s like to attend. There is a certain aura and respect there, that should remain. But now it’s being utilized for self serving clickbait, engagement farming for use cases and dopamine spikes. Sad!

A true American. 🇺🇸 Tomorrow is Tim Cook’s last day as CEO of Apple, and after fifteen years and trillions in market value, he refused to write his own legacy: “Your legacy is described by others, not yourself.” What he hopes people say is that he was a good and decent man, and that if they do, he’ll feel like he achieved something. That’s a great American right there, a man who built one of the most valuable companies in history and still understood that character outranks accomplishment.

Ryan Manion, Captain Cons, and Rob Boeckmann are bringing Bold American to Tampa for a live podcast at MIC 2026.

The show brings together two veterans and a Gold Star sister for conversations around the military and veteran community, and this time, the conversation is happening live from the Creator Stage at MIC.

Honestly, it’s moments like this that make MIC special. Put people with different experiences and perspectives in the same room, give them a mic, and let the conversation go where it goes.

Sometimes it gets serious. Sometimes it gets ridiculous. Usually it’s somewhere in between.

More details on the live recording are coming soon.

📍 Tampa, Florida
📅 September 23–26, 2026
