Note sull'episodio
Ben Patton is the grandson of General George Patton—the famed WWI and WWII General—and son of Major General George Patton IV, a man whose service record is as broad as his own father’s was. But Ben went a different path; he worked across various multimedia industries, co-authored a book, and founded the Patton Veterans Project, where he’s now helping American veterans process their own toughest times through filmmaking. And it’s having incredible outcomes—Ben and his team have conducted studies with the VA and found that veterans with PTSD who’ve completed a workshop with the Patton Veterans Project are much more likely to seek formal mental health treatment at the VA, and Ben shared it’s even saved one veteran’s life.
But we dove into much more than just Ben’s nonprofit, we discussed the role of AI/LLMs in the classroom and as a parent, what it was like growing up, Ben’s year at a nunnery, writing, suicide, and everything in between.
