“Coming from a military family, my father was afflicted with some PTSD for a while; some of what these men and women discuss on this show is what he went through, too.
I’ve recommended the show to him and he loved it.
I hope there’s another season coming out! This was well-done and great...”Read full review »

“Makes a solid point about how much people talk on behalf of soldiers and veterans or use them as movie fodder, but how little we hear veterans tell their own stories. Well-produced show, great flow, worth a listen.”

“Our vets are so under appreciated. I'm really sad to see that there aren't more reviews to keep this podcast going. Hopefully this will help. These are incredibly brave people and their stories are beyond words of praise.”Read full review »

“It seems like an axiom that those who see battle rarely discuss it with friends and family. For many, this show is a bit of a catharsis. It's the first time they have opened up about their experiences, that in many, cases changed their life forever. Using real life events, this show reveals what...”Read full review »

“Love this show. I listen to many podcasts kind of like a new hobby. This one is informative and entertaining, not funny but serious info. L:ove it and wasn't sure I would. I have zero military and don't know anyone really in the military so LISTEN to the stories and start with ep One.”Read full review »

“This podcast by Thom Tran & Panoply is a raw, deep look at the experiences of men & women who have served the nation's armed forces, putting themselves in harms way every day; often with devastating consequences. One of the most riveting podcasts I've come across this year. An excellent program...”Read full review »

“A bunch of left wing veterans ranting, I’ll pass. And yeah, I too got hurt overseas and had high hopes for a program like this. What a wasted opportunity. Couldn’t make it past the Duckworth episode and the hosts anti Trump rants.”

“Battle Scars is a powerful balance of stories that are both heartwarming and heartbreaking. I’ve had loved ones in the military and it’s not an easy lifestyle. Society often forgets about those who are fighting their country’s battles for them. Thank you for sharing these stories!”
