Ops Brief 012: Daily Drop - 20 March 2025 (Budget Slashing & Cheap Missiles)
Send us a textWelcome back to the Ones Ready Podcast—where we take the dumpster fire that is the Pentagon’s latest news and roast it to perfection. Here’s your daily dose of WTF is happening in the military:💥 Merging Commands for Fun and Profit – Europe and Africa, NORTHCOM and SOUTHCOM... Because consolidating everything under one roof always works so well, right?💥 Cheap Missiles FTW – Air Force busting out $40k laser-guided rockets to shoot down drones instead of million-dollar missiles. That’s what we call “ballin’ on a budget.”💥 Fitness Standards Review – Trying to balance inclusivity and not dropping standards... Because let’s face it, the enemy doesn’t care about your “feelings.”💥 Traffic Nightmares – You thought waiting in line at the DMV was bad? Try getting on base during rush hour. Defenders, we love you, but open the damn second lane already.💥 The Space Force Is Broke – 3% of the defense budget for the thing we’re losing to China? Makes sense... if your goal is to get steamrolled.💥 The Continuing Resolution Trainwreck – AKA, how to cut the legs off the B-21, KC-46, and Space Force while hoping nobody notices.🔥 You think you’re ready to serve?

Ep 447: Killing ISIS Leaders & Changing Military Base Names – Where Are Our Priorities?
Send us a textWelcome back to the Ones Ready podcast—where we break down the real stories that actually matter instead of the nonsense the Pentagon wants you to focus on. Today Aaron and Trent cover ISIS leaders getting schwacked, ridiculous military spending priorities, and why renaming Fort Bragg (then renaming it back) is peak government dysfunction.💥 Another ISIS leader bites the dust—but is cutting off the head of the snake really solving anything? 💥 Trump allegedly ordered a drone strike mid-golf round—alpha move or just another Tuesday? 💥 Why the U.S. keeps funding and arming the same groups we eventually end up fighting. 💥 Fort Bragg gets its name back—because nothing says ‘readiness’ like spending millions on signage. 💥 AI-controlled Hellfire missiles now slice enemies up mid-air—who’s the unhinged genius behind this?Meanwhile, our military budget is magically endless when it comes to renaming bases, but somehow we’re still flying ancient airframes and cutting training hours.💥 Like, subscribe, and drop a comment if you think our priorities are completely backwards. 💀 Hate it?

Ep 448: Enlisted Accessions Recruiter - SSgt Ransom
Send us a textWelcome back to the Ones Ready Podcast—where we cut through the BS and give you the real scoop recruiters are too busy to explain. Spoiler: You probably *aren't* their top priority, and yes, they're ignoring your texts. Why? Because they're drowning in wannabes who think they’re special. Here’s the breakdown: 💥 Parents Bringing Their Kids In at Age 30? – Yes, it happens. And no, your dad’s buddy from the Marines doesn’t know anything about the Air Force. 💥 You Want to Join Fast? – Good luck. Wait times are 4–9 months minimum. And if you want a medical job? That’s cute. Keep dreaming. 💥 Non-Citizen Enlistment Just Got Easier – But only if you get that sweet citizenship at basic. Otherwise, you're back on the limited jobs list. 💥 GED Holders & Moral Waivers – You think your GED and DUI aren’t a big deal? Think again. There's paperwork to fill out and hoops to jump through. 💥 Marijuana, Tattoos, & Medical Records – Sorry, bro. That Vegas weed sticks around longer than your last trip to Fremont Street. And yes, we’re going to find your sealed record. 🔥 So, you think you're ready? Prove it. ✅ Like, subscribe, and drop a comment if you’re ready to stop whining and start training. 💀 Hate it?

Ops Brief 011: Daily Drop - 19 March 2025 (Military Chaos, Budget Cuts, and the DEI Purge—The Pentagon’s Hot Mess)
Send us a textWelcome back to the Ones Ready Podcast—where we cut through the BS and break down the real stories that actually matter, instead of whatever nonsense the Pentagon is pushing today.Here’s what’s on deck:💥 Pentagon Budget Games – The DoD is basically speed-running a government shutdown, and somehow, everyone’s shocked that running ops without a budget is a nightmare. 💥 50,000+ Civilian Jobs Slashed – Trimming the fat or setting the military up for complete logistical failure? Probably both. 💥 Houthi Strikes Keep Coming – Because nothing says “peace” like another round of missile launches in the Middle East. 💥 Recruiting is Up? – Either Gen Z is built different, or the DoD finally figured out how to market a job that pays you in trauma and terrible PowerPoints. 💥 DEI Content Scrubbed – The military’s Ctrl+F-delete approach to diversity just nuked everything from DEI mandates to Navajo Code Talkers pages. Someone definitely didn’t read past the first line.Meanwhile, Congress is big mad about shutting down useless bases, while the Air Force is somehow surprised that overclassifying everything is making it harder to function.💥 Like, subscribe, and drop a comment if you think the Pentagon is a disaster. 💀 Hate it?
