Veterans, Mental Health & Real Conversations — Featured on The Middle

At Dryhootch, we know the conversation around veteran mental health needs to go deeper than statistics and headlines. It needs real voices, real experiences, and real solutions rooted in peer support and community.

We’re honored to see these conversations happening nationally through The Middle with Jeremy Hobson
— a live national call-in show focused on bringing Americans together through meaningful discussion.

Recently, the program featured a powerful discussion on military and veteran mental health, including conversations about trauma, transition, peer support, and the long-term impact of service. Dryhootch and the importance of veteran-led connection and community support were part of that conversation.

🎙️ The Battle At Home: Addressing Veteran Mental Health
📅 Tuesday, May 12
🕡 6:30 PM
📍 Kenosha, Wisconsin

This live town hall will bring together veterans, advocates, and community members to talk openly about the realities many veterans face after service — from combat trauma and transition struggles to the power of peer support, purpose, and connection.

Dryhootch Founder Bob Curry will be featured as part of the discussion alongside fellow veterans and advocates helping lead the conversation nationwide.

At Dryhootch, we know healing doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens through community, shared experience, and having people willing to walk beside you.

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY 🇺🇸☕

To all the moms who held the line at home while others went to war…
The mothers who raised warriors, carried families through deployments, answered late-night calls, and never stopped loving their people through the chaos — today is for you.

Even Animal Mother would probably admit… moms are tougher than Marines.

From all of us at Dryhootch — thank you to every mother, grandmother, stepmom, military spouse, Gold Star mother, and woman who became the steady force behind someone else’s mission.

“Better you than me.”
— every exhausted mom ever. 😂

Happy Mother’s Day.
Stay strong. Stay connected.
