The podcast "Mental Salvation Radio episode 50: Thoughts of a 50-year-old" was recorded on Saturday, November 11th, 2023. He discusses the Marine Corps birthday, which is on November 10th, and celebrates the establishment of the US Marine Corps in 1775. The speakers question why the Marine Corps birthday is not acknowledged on the calendar and is instead labeled as a substitute for Veterans Day. They argue that the Marine Corps deserves more recognition and praise for their service, drawing parallels to celebrating different fraternities and sororities within the Black Greek community. Enoch suggests that all military branches should have their designated day of celebration. The importance of the discussion lies in raising awareness about the Marine Corps' contributions and advocating for equal recognition among military branches. Enoch also questions whether the government values the Marines as much as other branches based on the lack of public holiday status for their birthday.
