In this inspiring episode of The MisFitNation, host Rich LaMonica welcomes Joe Stazione, a proud U.S. Marine Corps Veteran and founder of multiple veteran-focused nonprofit organizations, including Throttle Therapy.
Joe served in the USMC from 1999 to 2003, and while he didn’t see combat, he’s done his fighting on the home front—against isolation, loss of purpose, and the challenges many veterans face after service. His journey includes founding Arizona’s largest veteran motorcycle ride, working with renowned organizations like 22Kill and Defenders of Freedom, and ultimately turning his love for motorcycles and art into a life of healing and connection.
🎨 Today, Joe is a full-time metal flag artist, building patriotic and veteran-inspired pieces that tell stories and stir hearts.
