Episode notes
Frank is 79 years old. His life has been anything but boring. As a boy, he twice tricked his younger brother into riding a bicycle off the roof of their garage. Years later, while serving in the Army in Vietnam, his jeep was blown up by a mine, leaving one side of his face badly smashed. After the war, Frank spent two decades in Germany, a country he loves deeply. He married five times. And it is his current wife who, as he puts it, “saved” him and showed him what unconditional love truly means.
The next episode will air on November 16th, 2025.
