Episode 36 - Paul Maddison

On this episode, I speak with a Canadian down under, Paul Maddison. Paul spent his formative years in Ottawa and was in no way interested in joining the military. However, in an effort to find a productive path forward, he went to military college out of high school. He spent countless days at sea and eventually became the Commander of the Royal Canadian Navy. After he took off the uniform, he became our high commissioner to Australia and stayed on the continent as the Director of the Defence Research Institute at the University of New South Wales. We not only cover his time in uniform, but speak about finding your way as a young person, managing mental health, threats in the Indo-Pacific region, and much more.
