Music, celebrities and secret codes

This week’s American Legion Tango Alpha Lima podcast is packed with some “Did You Knows.” Take, for example, these nuggets of trivia related to entertainment:

• One of this week’s podcast guests has a connection to radio and TV personality Dick Clark. Marine Corps veteran Mike Spotswood, who explains the tie-in to Clark, and Army veteran Doug Bradley are this week’s guests. The Vietnam veterans are no strangers to podcasts as they use their “Cup of Joe” podcast to help fellow vets through issues with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

• Johnny Cash served in the Air Force during the Cold War, where rumors persisted about how he cracked a secret Russian code.

• Before Pat Sajak spun one-liners on “Wheel of Fortune” the Army veteran spun tunes as a DJ in Vietnam.

Check out this week’s podcast to soak in all these nuggets and more. It’s among more than 150 Tango Alpha Lima episodes available in both audio and video formats here. You can also download episodes on iTunes, Google Play or other major podcast-hosting sites. The video version is available at the Legion’s YouTube channel.
