Ep 530: The Air Force Won’t Say “Our Bad”—So Peaches and Trent Call Them On It
Send us a textPeaches and Trent dive straight into the chaos—no disclaimers, no corporate tone, just two dudes calling out the absurdity of modern military leadership. From COVID reinstatement madness to commanders who rubber-stamp illegal orders and still get promoted, Peaches unloads on the Air Force’s “do as we say, not as we do” culture. Trent breaks down why officers obsess over year-groups like it’s astrology, why reinstated members get screwed, and how the Pentagon avoids accountability like it’s a PT test. The boys torch everything from Secret Service incompetence to Navy misery to teenagers who show up to job interviews looking like they escaped Hot Topic at 2 a.m. It’s raw, it’s ruthless, it’s Ones Ready at full power.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 – Peaches jumps Trent in the team room 01:40 – Pre-workout, caffeine addiction & Aaron slander (required) 02:20 – OTS updates: Vegas locked, Europe maybe 05:45 – “It’s NOT a smoke session.

Ops Brief 112: Daily Drop - 20 Nov 2025 - Apache Upgrades, Somalia Bombs, and Biden's Piggy Burn
Send us a textAlright, slackers—Peaches drops your daily dose of military reality on November 20th, no sugarcoating, just the gritty facts. He breaks down special warfare selection like it's a bad date: show up with the raw goods or get ghosted. Plugs the Operator Training Summit because apparently you need Taylor Starch to teach you not to wreck your knees while pretending to train. Then it's Apache love—10th Mountain's new toys for terrain domination, Poland live-fires extending kill range because why not? Army's vaccine U-turn lets ex-officers herd back the mandate rejects; Navy's got a fancy new destroyer for whatever "multi-mission" means this week. F-15Es playing long-range from Diego Garcia, F-35 export drama stirring Middle East pots, record Somalia strikes zapping terrorists in "self-defense." Space Force promos (yawn), Coast Guard's drug hauls and flood heroics—oh, and they might not actually have swastika issues, but who knows? Peaches mocks crayon-eaters, geeks on aviation, and chuckles at Trump shutting down a reporter with "quiet little piggy." If you're whining about prep pains, maybe skip this and stay mediocre.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 - Peaches Schools You on Special Warfare Real Talk00:40 - Podcast Fluff: Intro and Summit Sales Pitch03:07 - Apache Overkill: 10th Mountain's Latest Death Birds05:30 - Navy's Overpriced Tub: USS Barnum Jr. Arrives07:57 - Somalia BBQ: Peak Airstrikes on Bad Guys09:55 - Coast Guard Wins: Drug Busts and Flood Saves12:06 - Trump's Mic Drop: Shut Up, Little Piggy🎯 Call-to-Actions:👍 Like the episode🔔 Subscribe💬 Comment with your take🌟 Leave a review🪖 Join the Ones Ready Membership👕 Check out the merch storeSupport the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page: HERECollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code: ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code): ATACLeteCardoMax - Promo Code: ONESREADYDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADYDFND Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADYHoist - Promo Code: ONESREADYKill Cliff - Pr...
