The Ones Ready crew dives headfirst into the chaos of a government shutdown. Peaches breaks down why jets are still flying even though half the civilians got furloughed, why dropping bombs is suddenly off-limits, and how “minimal manning” really means “maximum chaos.” From Air Force talent marketplace changes to the Space Force scrambling for capability gaps, Marines swapping out recruiting commanders, the Coast Guard dropping multi-tons of blow in Florida, and the Secretary of Defense tightening the screws on military culture—this daily drop pulls no punches. Oh, and POTUS showed up at Quantico to preach discipline like your dad after catching you with a bad haircut. Buckle up, it’s another day in the Ops Brief circus.

Peaches goes off on the biggest shakeup in the military since forever: the Secretary of Defense (now Secretary of War) dropping a savage speech that could’ve been an email—but wasn’t. From “FAFO” threats to beard bans, fat generals, and nuking woke policies, nothing was off limits. Trump chimed in with his usual fire, telling generals to leave the room if they didn’t like it. Peaches rips through the chaos with hot takes, sarcasm, and zero filter. If you thought the military was soft—buckle up, because culture change just showed up with steel-toe boots.

Aaron unloads on the state of the Air Force, the military, and America’s warrior ethos with zero filter. Forget sanitized speeches—this is a raw breakdown of why GWOT veterans accepted the chaos, why today’s force feels distracted, and why the next generation better wake up before it’s too late. He rips into leadership theater (PT tests for generals, anyone?), clown-world bureaucracy (pay offices closed for frisbee), and the creeping comfort culture that turned Kandahar into a Pizza Hut outpost. Aaron lays out what a real culture shift looks like—back to lethality, back to standards, and back to caring about the mission and each other. Buckle up, because if you think you’re ready for Special Warfare, Aaron’s here to remind you: it’s pass/fail, no excuses.

Peaches, Aaron, and Trent come in hot: Halloween costumes get dark, Oompa-Loompas invade, and naked 70s playing cards almost derail a four-star visit. Then it gets serious—General Mark Welsh flames out at Texas A&M over gender ideology drama, Special Warfare kills all 2025 ship dates, and the Air Force admits it’s broke while Congress hasn’t passed a budget since 1997. PCS moves? Just a spreadsheet scam. Candidates failing pipeline tests? Seventy-two down last class. This is peak Ones Ready: chaos, comedy, and calling out the BS nobody else will touch.

The Ones Ready crew doesn’t do boring briefs—and this one is pure chaos. Peaches breaks down the military circus: Army stockpiles waiting for the big fight, the Navy flexing nukes, Marines storming beaches like it’s 1944, and the Air Force still pretending AI is cheap. Space Force wants a 15-year plan before the end of the year (good luck), the Coast Guard’s busting smugglers off Point Loma, and oh yeah—the Secretary of Defense just recalled 800 generals to Quantico. Rumor says they’re about to sweat through PT tests while half of them are running on Ozempic and ego. Grab a chair, pour a strong one, and enjoy the roast.

Buckle up—this one’s going to piss some people off. Peaches, Trent, and Aaron sit down with Arvis Owens, a Naval Academy grad and former officer who had his career torched by a broken system. From botched carrier landings to fighting false accusations, Arvis lays out how the Uniform Code of Military Justice turned into a political circus where accusations = convictions and careers burn for headlines. The crew rips into toxic training, third-party harassment nonsense, and the absurd reality that you can be innocent and still lose everything. This isn’t a pity party—it’s a call to action. If you’re thinking about joining, already serving, or just want the unfiltered truth about how the military polices itself, this is the episode you can’t ignore. Grab your popcorn, sign the damn petition, and maybe don’t leave your office door closed ever again.

Aaron, Trent, and Peaches tackle the rising tide of valor inflation, where every LinkedIn bio says “warfighter,” but no one can pass a PT test. This episode is a spicy roast of our participation trophy military culture, bloated titles, and the thirst for validation that’s killing authenticity.

We dig into why the guy who’s “changing the game” on Instagram hasn’t deployed, why you shouldn’t need a 9-slide PowerPoint to explain your leadership style, and how the real ones are too busy doing the work to make motivational content about it.

Also: whether the military actually values mentorship, why you should be suspicious of people who over-brand themselves, and how chasing recognition is the fastest way to lose your soul in the team room.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• The “valor economy” is collapsing under the weight of everyone’s brand.
• Want to be elite? Shut up and show up.
• If your shirt says “Mentor” but your actions don’t — you're part of the problem.
• The algorithm won’t save you during selection.
• Mentorship isn’t marketing. Stop confusing clout with impact.
• The best leaders usually have the fewest followers — because they’re too busy leading.
• If everyone’s a warrior… why does everything suck?

⏱️ Timestamps:
00:00 – Opening Shots: The Warfighter Wannabe Epidemic
04:10 – “Mentorship” Isn’t a LinkedIn Endorsement
09:45 – Valor Inflation and the Branding Arms Race

20:00 – The Reality of Mentorship in Today’s Military
26:00 – Aaron: If You’re Still Talking, You’re Not Leading
32:10 – Trent: Feedback Isn’t Meant to Coddle
36:30 – When Marketing Becomes the Mission
41:00 – Outro: The Quiet Professionals Still Win

• SUBSCRIBE to hear from dudes who’ve actually done it.
• COMMENT: What’s the worst example of valor inflation you’ve seen?

Welcome back to the team room, where Peaches, Aaron, and Trent torch fake professionalism, internet tough guys, and the circus that is LinkedIn. This episode takes a dark turn into the assassination of Charlie Kirk—why it matters, how it changes the political landscape, and what comes next when the “moderate” is taken out. The crew doesn’t hold back on cancel culture, the broken rules of engagement online, and why political violence isn’t a dial—it’s a switch. If you thought free speech was safe, buckle up. This one’s raw, unfiltered, and guaranteed to make someone rage in the comments.

Ones Ready sits down with Morgan Lerette —author of Guns, Girls, and Greed—to talk about life as a Blackwater mercenary during the chaos of Iraq and Afghanistan. From getting recruited as a broke Air Guard kid, to standing on flight lines wondering if forklifts win Bronze Stars, to suddenly pulling convoys through Route Irish with Navy SEALs and Rangers, Morgan lays it all out: the absurd, the grim, and the downright sketchy. We dive into the wild days of unarmored Peugeots with body armor for window panels, hooker stories from Jordan, and the not-so-fun reality of PMCs running missions with zero backup. And just when you’re laughing at zebra-striped POW underwear, Morgan drops the hammer on the modern PMC industry moving kids across the border. Buckle up—this one goes from hilarious to horrifying in record time. Part two is going to be even spicier.

Peaches kicks in the door with another Daily Drop, tearing through the Pentagon’s SHIELD program (yes, they actually named it that), a $39M rocket motor bailout, and why Army inventory reports sound like Mad Libs. He drags the idea of draft “policies” floating around the Guard Bureau, laughs at new bunker buster contracts, and side-eyes social media witch hunts after troops cheered Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Oh, and in case you forgot—it’s fiscal year chaos, which means budgets, BS, and Peaches reminding you that the Air Force stockpile ain’t what you think it is. Plus, Nashville OTS is coming—train smart, not smoked.

Congrats, you survived the pipeline and think you’ve made it. Spoiler: nobody at your first team gives a damn. In this episode, Peaches and Trent rip the lid off the “career trajectory” nobody tells you about. From being the new guy fetching radios to running a team, dodging AETC orders, and getting stuck in jobs nobody wants (ops shop, anyone?), we break down exactly how fast you go from “student stud” to “old guy with back pain.” We torch the myths, clown on guard bros, debate steroid use in the team room, and even drag the almighty Chiefs’ Group. It’s blunt, funny, and probably the most accurate look you’ll get at life after selection.

This was supposed to be a roast. A snarky hate-watch of the new Netflix Thunderbirds documentary. Instead? Aaron and Trent got ambushed by feelings. What started as a casual poo-poo sesh turned into a confession of admiration, aviation tears, and redemption arcs that hit harder than a Friday safety brief.

We went from “tight flight suits and PR stunts” to "Astro gave up being an astronaut to save the team” — and dammit, we were in. From Primo’s struggle bus to elite team dynamics, we broke down what it actually takes to perform under pressure when the whole Air Force is watching.

Also in this ep: Marines choke-slamming passengers mid-flight, Memorial Day cringe patrols, fake Viking worship, Jesus-themed t-shirts, PTSD reality checks, and why “No More Drama, Ride a Llama” is now legally trademarked by Ones Ready. This one’s unhinged, honest, and somehow… wholesome?

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• Thunderbirds documentary unexpectedly slaps — especially Primo’s redemption arc and behind-the-scenes team friction.
• Public Affairs: THIS is how you tell authentic military stories. No more highlight reels. Show the struggle.
• If you're over 35 and yelling “'Til Valhalla” in a Spartan helmet… stop.
• The Marine who slammed a dude mid-flight deserves a medal and a bourbon.
• Memorial Day isn’t about rage-posting. Tell a damn story about your bros instead.
• PTSD doesn’t need to be your personality. Help exists. So does plant-based llama therapy.
• Jesus in a Ghillie suit? Coming soon to a merch drop near you.

Peaches is back in the team room, and this “daily” drop is anything but short. From the Air Force reactivating old commands to Space Force rolling out new uniforms, this episode dives into the chaos of DoD rebrands, reorganizations, and questionable decisions. Why are we shooting at UFOs with Reapers? Why is Congress playing budget chicken with defense spending? And do service members still have free speech when Big Brother’s watching their socials?

On top of that, Peaches drops updates on the Nashville Operator Training Summit, rants about suicide prevention critics, and even schools himself on where the hell Pease Air National Guard Base is. Strap in—this one swings from creatine gummies to constitutional rights, all with the usual Ones Ready sarcasm.

Peaches and Aaron are back swinging at the nonsense. From Special Warfare’s assessment model to Air Force Academy cadets racking up predatory loans, this episode rips into leadership fails, lazy commanders who hand out paperwork like candy, and the lost art of spot corrections. We go from stories of LOCs, LORs, and mustache games with Rangers, to watching Army football drop a quarter million dollars just to get smoked by Tarleton State. Oh, and Peaches gets dragged through camp in just a towel because Rangers can’t handle beards. Add in college football meltdowns, fantasy league punishments, and some blistering hot takes on what “leadership” actually means—you’ve got a mix of cringe, comedy, and brutal honesty that only Ones Ready delivers.

Forget the war stories from guys who graduated 20 years ago—this is the raw, unfiltered prototype of today’s Air Force Special Warfare candidate. At just 22, this dude has maxed every test, trained like a psycho, lived in a recreated basic training bay, and even did medic work in Ukraine… all before stepping foot in selection. He trashes Indoc, calls the Air Force “too weak,” admits he manipulates weak teammates, and brags about 26 pull-ups after a PT test. Love him or hate him, you can’t ignore him. This is what obsession looks like.

Peaches sits down with Bane—combat-experienced F-15E pilot—to roast the insanity of modern warfare expectations. From Ziploc-bag bathroom breaks at 30,000 feet to the Air Force’s genius idea of “just fly 16 hours and THEN fight,” this one dives into the real limits of human performance. They rip into burnout, busted culture, risk aversion, and the coming era of human-machine teaming. Forget free massages—this is about survival, lethality, and fixing a system that breaks its people before the war even starts. If you think “human performance” is just foam rollers and protein shakes, strap in. This episode goes full throttle into Alter, the Weapons School’s vision to rebuild warfighters for the fights nobody’s rehearsed.

12:20 – Cognitive burnout and the price of long-duration missions

30:00 – From UFC PI to Nellis: building labs, data streams, and brain maps
39:00 – Why collision spaces, competition, and even video games matter for warfighters
45:00 – The Arena: bringing back risk, competition, and the will to win

Peaches fires off on everything from the Pentagon shuffling Space Command to Alabama, Harlem Hellfighters finally getting the respect they deserve, and why the Air Force needed bargain-bin precision rockets to stay lethal. Sprinkle in a little DoD drama, Suicide Prevention Month at Keesler, and the Navy scuttling cocaine boats, and you’ve got the Ones Ready daily drop that actually says what everyone else won’t. If you wanted sanitized military PR, you came to the wrong place.

The boys went full chaos mode—no prep, no filter, straight smoke. Ones Ready talks squats and Lizzo-as-a-unit-of-measure, then the crew dives into the viral “Braveheart Girl” story out of Scotland and the absolute clown show of UK laws. From there it spirals into stolen valor scandals, Nate from Valhalla torching Shrek McPhee, and the dumpster fire of the military influencer space. Is calling people out good for the community, or are we just feeding the negativity machine? Oh, and Hollywood is taking a swing at Alone at Dawn—so buckle up, because if Ron Howard screws this up, we riot.

Peaches and Nate from Valhalla VFT torch the fake-warrior industrial complex in this unfiltered episode. From Tim Kennedy’s “oops, I misrepresented my service” excuse to Shrek McPhee’s fantasy war stories, the Ones Ready crew pulls no punches. Why are so many veterans lying about their past? Is it ego, money, or just chronic insecurity? We dig into why the veteran community polices its own, why civilians don’t get it, and how glorifying war destroys trust. Expect hard truths, brutal honesty, and a reality check for anyone still worshipping false idols. Strap in—this isn’t a feel-good chat, it’s a demolition.

Peaches is back in the team room roasting bureaucracy, butchering rare earth minerals, and breaking down the latest defense chaos. From the Kabul Abbey Gate report that probably won’t change a thing, to U.S. troops in Indonesia firing Stingers for fun, to the Pentagon finally realizing maybe letting China work on our cloud wasn’t genius—this drop is loaded. He rants about B-21 bombers, F-35 sustainment deals, NATO missile shopping, and why the DoD still can’t buy software faster than a TikTok update. Oh, and yes, stolen valor talk is coming—but Peaches is taking it from a new angle you haven’t heard yet. Strap in, this one swings between hilarious and brutal.

Peaches is back in the team room with a ruthless daily drop that pulls no punches. From the Pentagon tossing $99 million at a Joint All-Domain buzzword with zero receipts, to Boeing’s KC-46 boom skewering fighter jets like kebabs, the hits just keep coming. The Air Force is out here buying VR dogfights that’ll give pilots bad habits, Space Force is running war games, and the DoD wants to overhaul Cobra Dane radar for a cool billion. Oh, and let’s not forget—another stolen valor meltdown is brewing, with Green Berets lying through their teeth. Peaches teases his upcoming sit-down with Nate from Valhalla VFT to torch the frauds. If you want soft takes, go somewhere else—this is the blunt truth about Air Force Special Warfare, DoD clownery, and who’s about to get exposed next.

⏱️ Timestamps:
