Sing Second Podcast [Nov 24, '25] featuring two amazing authors - William Spears ‘08 and Dave Gendell. Season 6 - Episode 14.

It’s Thanksgiving week…so here’s a little double dip of interviews for you. Dave Gendell, an Annapolis native, wrote Battle at Annapolis…a great book about two Army-Navy games contested on the grounds of USNA in 1893 and 1942. Gendell chats about the games and the impact USNA continues to have on the country through the spectacle of the Army Navy game. And William Spears just released his book two weeks ago. In Stoicism as a Warrior Philosophy: Insights on the Morality of Military Service, Spears presents a compelling case for Stoicism as the moral framework warriors need. He joins the pod to talk about his foray into being an author and a little more about the tenets of stoicism. Chris and John also chat about the upcoming Memphis game...Giving Tuesday and some other great events awaiting us after Turkey Day. That and more on the very best Alumni Association podcast there is. Beat Army...always.
