For our Memorial Day special, Kenny and Del interview Dantes Alexander and review the movie Greyhound (2020).

Dantes Alexander is a singer, actor, and model, who was recently nominated for Best EDM Entertainer at the 39th Annual Chicago Music Awards and was also crowned as the Prince Regent of EDM by the LA Times.  He has appeared on Showtime’s “Work in Progress” and “Chi” and has over 114K monthly listeners on Spotify.  Dantes wanted to pay tribute to his uncle, Specialist Thelbert Glen Page, U.S. Army, who died in Dak Lak during the Vietnam war and we talk about his upcoming EP and game.

Next, Kenny and Del review and discuss the WWII naval epic Greyhound (2020) and talk about the longest naval battle in history, The Battle in the Atlantic.  Greyhound tells the fictional story of Commander Ernie Kraus, who upon receiving his first Command, finds himself as Commander of the allied convoy as they navigate through the treacherous Mid-Atlantic gap.  Although Greyhound is a fictional story, it is based on real events and is a good reminder that freedom doesn't come without a cost.
