Send us a text Jared’s sunburnt, unfiltered, and back in the war room (well, accidentally someone else’s). In this raw members-only rant, he debriefs the San Diego Operator Training Summit, breaks down the PT standard panic in the Air Force, and flame-throws the idiocy of “Blues Mondays.” From watching 38 candidates grind it out to eviscerating the armchair critics of “warrior ethos,” this episode is a spicy casserole of truth bombs, sarcasm, and unsolicited leadership advice. Plus, why some ...
Send us a text Everyone loves to say they want a “badass” job—until they realize Air Force EOD actually plays with live explosives. Peaches sits down with three bomb techs who spill the truth about blowing stuff up for a living. From top-secret clearances to the sadistic “Grooster” workout, these dudes talk smoke sessions, failure, and why being called “Eagle” isn’t a compliment. No Hollywood hero shots here—just sweat, stress, and zero room for mistakes. If you think you’re built different, ...
Send us a text Peaches and the Ones Ready crew bring the Gladdins back into the team room for a brutal, emotional update on their fight for Justice for Julie — and it’s worse than you think. A repeat offender with 30+ charges kills Kate’s mom, and the state calls it a misdemeanor. Yeah. A misdemeanor. This episode rips open every layer of America’s broken “justice” system — lazy prosecutors, soft laws, and zero accountability. Nate and Kate Gladdin refuse to stay quiet, turning grief into a f...
Send us a text Peaches is flying solo and absolutely torching weak leadership in this unfiltered rant from the Ones Ready team room. The story? A Monster Mash at Little Rock AFB was shut down at the last second—after 50 candidates paid their own way—because someone got scared of “bad optics” during a government shutdown. Spoiler: nobody died, but the leadership’s spine sure did. Peaches tears into risk-averse commanders, lazy optics-warriors, and anyone who hides behind policy instead of taki...
Send us a text Trent flies solo and absolutely lights the mic on fire in this unfiltered reality check for every would-be warfighter wondering if they’re cut out for the pipeline. Spoiler alert: you’re probably not. From “weak genetics” and mommy issues to delusional love stories about the girl back home, Trent serves up a hot plate of hard truths with his signature sarcasm, hotel water, and allergic sneezing fits. If you’ve ever asked, “Do I have what it takes?”—this is the slap in the face ...
Send us a text Most people see an injury at BUD/S as the end of the road. For Chris from Project Linear, it was just the beginning. After making it through Hell Week and Phase 2, a brutal injury cut his journey short only seven weeks before graduation—but instead of letting that define him, he turned the experience into fuel. Today, Chris leads Project Linear, a tactical gear company built on the same standard of excellence he carried into the Navy pipeline. No gimmicks. No influencers. Just ...
Send us a text Peaches is back in the Ones Ready Team Room with another no-BS drop that’ll make the Pentagon sweat. From the government shutdown that’s starving paychecks to the beefy boys rolling off bread trucks in Chicago, this episode rips through every headline the brass wishes you’d ignore. Peaches calls out the “financially illiterate” lifestyle of troops living beyond their means, laughs at the Army Corps’ endless postponements, and lights up DoD’s hilariously outdated cybersecurity s...
Send us a text If you thought retirement would mellow them out, you clearly haven’t met Peaches, Trent, or Aaron. In this week’s blisteringly honest episode, all three come in hot. We’re talking about the mental minefield of getting out, the physical wreckage of a Special Warfare career, and the professional purgatory of trying to give a damn after years of institutional gaslighting. Peaches is post-retirement and post-patience. Trent’s back from the void. Aaron is basically caffeine, rage, a...
Send us a text The Ones Ready Team Room is back and Peaches isn’t pulling punches. From the DoD’s latest Inspector General “reforms” (translation: no more hiding behind fake complaints) to the U.S. getting embarrassed in the Arctic—this one’s got everything: cartel strikes, gender-standard meltdowns, government shutdown chaos, and a little unsolicited love for Aussie warfighters. Peaches dives headfirst into the week’s wildest military moves, from Trump’s National Guard orders to the Pentagon...
Send us a text Another week, another Green Beret schooling us on life. Dean Goble didn’t just crush 20 years in Army Special Forces—he turned retirement into running the Special Forces Foundation and steering Black Rifle Coffee’s philanthropy like a caffeinated warlord. From dropping “coffee speedballs” into disaster zones to roasting the nonsense of bad nonprofits, Dean breaks down service, optimism, and why coachability beats raw strength. Oh, and yes, the guys start a “Don’t Be Fat” moveme...
Send us a text Aaron takes the mic solo and unloads on pipeline myths, training excuses, and bad packet habits. Forget the rumor mill—he explains why the Air Force keeps tweaking Special Warfare selection, why “pipeline optimization” isn’t a conspiracy, and why faster runners are always the ones who graduate. He drags combat controllers over pistol skills, laughs about swim cap questions, and gives the blunt truth: stop wasting time and train specifically for what actually matters. It’s snark...
Send us a text 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...
Send us a text Tired of the same old “my chief ruined my life” Facebook rants? Trent torches the victim mentality and lay down some hard truths. This episode isn’t about coddling—it’s about owning your mistakes, setting the example, and refusing to be the guy who drags everyone down with negativity. From pipeline lessons to real-world leadership fails, we break down why optimism, discipline, and practicing what you preach aren’t just buzzwords—they’re survival skills. If you’re ready to stop ...
Send us a text 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 wa...
Send us a text 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 ...
Send us a text 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 i...
Send us a text 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...
Send us a text 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 ab...
Send us a text 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...
Send us a text 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 fr...
