Our Mission

We started Tracer Burnout with a simple idea: a platform for military veterans to share their stories of service. By inviting veterans to speak about their experiences, we hope to help them feel heard, to know their service matters, to preserve their memories for future generations, and to provide civilians with a better understanding of life in the service.

We need your help!

Your financial support helps us bring the stories of veterans to everyone and preserve the memories of their service for future generations. Consider a monthly contribution.

Two Latest TB Episodes

Episode 0035 - Ross “Rusty” Orvik

“Our safety regulations are written in blood.”  


We finally captured our unicorn! In this episode, we welcome Navy  veteran and submariner Mr. Ross “Rusty” Orvik into our virtual studio.  He shares his journey of growing up with an insatiable curiosity for the  deep, how New York winters compelled him to leave active service, and  how 9/11 kept him in the Reserves. We delve into the fascinating science  behind creating fresh air and clean water on a nuclear submarine, and  he shares his favorite submarine movie!  


In the Free Fire Area, we discuss our bucket lists and explore the  things that hold a special place in our hearts and aspirations.

Episode 0034 - Kurt Ballash

“If nothing else, don’t lie to oneself.”  


In this episode, we speak with Army veteran, Kurt Ballash. We discuss  how the military gave a two-time felon a chance to turn his life around,  his widely diverse experiences in the Army from explosive detection  with dogs to being a medical NCO in Civil Affairs and his bittersweet  exit from the service. We also discuss how his late wife helped him find  his peace and how he now does the same for other veterans through his  business and non-profit, The Artisans Outreach. 


In the Free Fire Area, we decide which foods should be renamed in our  honor. Would you like a side of Baker with that?

And, of course, is the enigmatic Space Force real? Plus, Dan’s long-awaited vindication on cranberry sauce…
