Send us a text 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...
Send us a text 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 peo...
Send us a text 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. ...
Send us a text Peaches is back with your Labor Day hangover cure — the September 2nd Daily Drop. We’re talking Special Warfare assessment, why everything in training actually ties back to the mission, and yes, why your hips are going to explode if you show up to Nashville’s Operator Training Summit. ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 – Special Warfare assessment & “attributes-based selection” explained 02:00 – Fitness shoutout: 18 Alpha Fitness & prep partners 03:00 – Pentagon forms Counter-Dron...
Send us a text 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, ...
Send us a text 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, b...
Send us a text 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 faste...
Send us a text 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...
Send us a text Peaches rips through the latest DoD chaos—everything from fake heroes getting exposed to the National Guard finally being trusted with their own sidearms. The crew doesn’t hold back: stolen valor clowns cashing in on lies, the Navy changing hands at the top, the Air Force still fumbling leadership drama, and the Army trying to let AI babysit its broken vehicles. Oh, and the Air Force rugby team actually came to play. If you wanted polished PR fluff, this ain’t it. If you wanted...
Send us a text Another week, another dose of hard truth. Trent and Peaches break down the brutal, hilarious, and very real reasons most people won’t survive Air Force Special Warfare training. From weak genetics and overprotective parents to the myth of “losing your freedoms,” the crew pulls zero punches while torching excuses. We talk about the lies you tell yourself, the stress you can’t handle, and why quitting always feels good for about five minutes—until it doesn’t. Plus, behind-the-sce...
Send us a text Welcome to the most brutal members-only episode yet—where we air out the entire damn mess the Air Force tried to sneak past you. No prep. No script. Just raw frustration, hot takes, and wild truths about canceled reenlistment bonuses, halted retirement orders, and why the hell the CMSAF wasn’t even in the loop. Peaches, Trent, and Aaron tear into this SRB and retirement trainwreck like it owes them backpay—with spicy theories, blunt facts, and zero patience for Pentagon PR spin...
Send us a text Another day, another Ones Ready drop where Peaches serves up hot takes with a side of sarcasm. From the Pentagon’s endless talent for screwing up interagency comms, to South Korea pulling more weight than half our “allies,” nothing is safe. We get speculation on who’s about to run the Air Force (spoiler: maybe a guy retiring today), a brutal roast of Emerald Warrior’s exercise circus, and even a congrats to 21 shiny-new pilots who are about to find out what pain really looks li...
Send us a text Welcome to the Ones Ready 500th episode—proof that sheer stubbornness beats strategy every time. Aaron, Trent, and Peaches hit the milestone the only way they know how: zero prep, maximum chaos. From reminiscing on legends and favorite guests to dunking on officers, bad takes, and the Air Force’s love for pointless bureaucracy, nothing is safe. They roast past guests, drag public affairs, tell war stories that shouldn’t be real, and still manage to get mad at dudes failing a ru...
Send us a text Welcome to the Ones Ready Daily Drop, where Peaches rants his way through the Pentagon’s latest circus act. From Riga flyovers to AI “investments” that wouldn’t even buy a used Ford Ranger, this week’s Ops Brief is a buffet of absurdity. We’ve got ten tankers launching in Guam (because why not), Sharon peacing out of DISA IT, and the Air Force throwing pocket change at human-AI collab while China sharpens their Skynet. Oh—and apparently basketball is religion in Latvia, civilia...
Send us a text Welcome back to the Team Room for another unapologetically savage drop of truth. Peaches tears into the Pentagon’s new “Pete & Bobby Fitness Challenge,” part of the grand Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) campaign—where SecDef Hegseth and RFK Jr. prove that apparently half the DoD still can’t do a proper push-up. We hit the big headlines—warships flexing off Venezuela, the Air Force quietly firing its Chief of Staff, and Space Force building radars that can probably track t...
Send us a text The Ones Ready crew is back in the team room with another unapologetic ops brief. Peaches kicks things off by dragging coneheads who fail day one fitness tests and then launches into the week’s wild ride of military news. Marines get their obligatory “media hero” spotlight, the Army unveils another tilt-rotor science project (because clearly we learned nothing from the V-22), and Peaches calls for the resurrection of the mighty MH-53. From record female enlistments to the Space...
Send us a text Nothing screams “lifelong dream” like failing your IFT on day one. That’s right—72 cones showed up to the hardest pipeline in the world and tripped over the mile-and-a-half run like it was a banana peel. The Ones Ready crew (Peaches, Aaron, and Trent) put on their disappointed dad faces and rip into the excuses, bad prep, and pure clownery. From BMT “downtime” myths to pipeline “optimizations” that may or may not save the Air Force from itself, this is a no-filter roast of what...
Send us a text Trent flies solo and absolutely nukes the pity party over the Air Force adding a gasp two-mile run. If you’re one of the Facebook warriors crying about extra laps, this one’s for you. He breaks down exactly why being fit isn’t just a box to check—it’s the damn point. From waistband inflation to PT test trauma, this episode drags every excuse into the sunlight and torches it. Spoiler: you're not a victim, you're just out of breath. 🔥 Key Takeaways: If your uniform is screaming, ...
Send us a text Peaches tears through the August 14th Daily Drop with zero fluff and plenty of side-eye. From the U.S. military flexing in the Caribbean and 800 Guard troops rolling into D.C., to the Space Force launching a GPS upgrade that’s only five decades overdue, it’s a buffet of defense news with extra sarcasm. We cover Pentagon IT projects that cost millions just to die on the vine, Nigeria’s suspiciously expensive weapons buy, and why Instagram’s new location tracker is basically a fr...
Send us a text Peaches unloads on a wild week in defense news—DARPA drops the mic with the world’s biggest real-time electronic warfare range, the U.S. throws pocket change at Panama’s border, and NATO still cries poor while leaning on U.S. muscle. From AI-driven target tracking and new Air Force dorm “suites” that’ll make Marines jealous, to Space Force finally cutting ties with Russian rocket engines, this episode swings between jaw-dropping tech and head-shaking policy moves. Oh, and we’re...
