| 6/23/26 | Ops Brief 162: Daily Drop - 23 June 2026 - The A-10 Just Won’t Die | Send us Fan Mail Peaches is back with the Ones Ready Daily Drop for 23 June, breaking down the latest military news across the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Space Force, Coast Guard, Secretary of Defense, President of the United States, and global defense updates. This episode covers the Army selecting Anduril for next-generation command and control work, autonomous boats being tested in the Philippines, contractor cyber operations, Marine Corps air defense modernization, the final day... | 24m 27s | ||||||
| 6/21/26 | Ep 597: How to Ruck Without Destroying Your Body | TF Voodoo | Send us Fan Mail Dr. Dave Walton from TF Voodoo joins Aaron and Peaches to break down how to actually train for rucking without wrecking your body. Dave is a retired Green Beret, doctor, rucking coach, and the brain behind TF Voodoo. In this episode, he explains why most people train for rucking wrong, why “just ruck more” is one of the fastest ways to get injured, and how to build real load carriage performance through Zone 2 cardio, strength training, progressive ruck programming, foot care... | 1h 14m 08s | ||||||
| 6/19/26 | Ep 596: The Zulu Course Ruck Problem | Send us Fan Mail Aaron jumps on solo for a serious episode about the reported Air Force Special Warfare Zulu course ruck event, why it matters, and what candidates need to understand right now. This episode focuses on reports of a heavy evaluated ruck in the Zulu course, including a 10-mile ruck with roughly 100+ pounds, a 15-minute pace standard, full uniform and equipment requirements, Texas heat and humidity, medical concerns, heat casualties, and the larger question of whether the event i... | 52m 58s | ||||||
| 6/19/26 | Ep 595: Why People Quit Special Warfare (And Why Some Don’t) | Send us Fan Mail This solo episode with Trent gets real fast. No hype. No fake motivation. Just an honest conversation about why people walk away from Air Force Special Warfare—and why some still choose the hard path anyway. Trent breaks down something most instructors don’t talk about enough: at some point during training, candidates realize the logical choice is probably to quit. The conventional military path offers stability, comfort, family time, better work-life balance, and way less ri... | 15m 31s | ||||||
| 6/17/26 | ***Sneak Peek***MBRS 91: Aaron Unsupervised: Fitness, Violence, OTS Expansion & the Venezuela Boat Media Meltdown | Send us Fan Mail No crew. No guardrails. Just Aaron on a members-only mic doing what he does best—thinking out loud and lighting fires. This episode is an end-of-year wrap that turns into a manifesto: why fitness is a moral obligation, why “peaceful” without capability is a lie, and how attribute-based selection actually works when the slogans stop. Aaron breaks down why OTS waited, why it’s scaling fast, and why 2026 is about to get wild—including international moves. Then he unloads on the ... | 30m 33s | ||||||
| 6/15/26 | Ep 594: The Air Force Special Warfare Ruck Standard Got Stupid | Send us Fan Mail Aaron, Trent, and Peaches are back in the team room, and this one starts with Tasty Gains, UFC at the White House, soccer, Nitro Circus, sketchy bungee jumping, and somehow ends exactly where it needed to: Air Force Special Warfare pipeline standards. The crew gets into a reported Zulu course ruck event involving a 12-mile ruck at a 15-minute pace with a ruck weighing well over the standard 45 pounds. That turns into a bigger conversation about assessment and selection, train... | 1h 00m 01s | ||||||

| 5/25/26 | Ep 589: Memorial Day Isn’t About Being Sad. It’s About Remembering the Boys Right | Send us Fan Mail Peaches and Aaron sit down for a Memorial Day conversation that’s honest, reflective, hilarious, and painfully real all at the same time. The boys break down the actual meaning behind Memorial Day, the difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day, and why the internet keeps turning remembrance into performative sadness instead of intentional celebration of the people we lost. They talk about friends killed in combat, training accidents, suicide, and the long list of... | 49m 10s | ||||||
| 5/21/26 | Ep 588: Death by a Thousand Clicks: Why the Air Force Is Burning Out Its Best People | Send us Fan Mail Peaches and Trent are back in the team room—and this one turns into a brutally honest breakdown of why morale across the military keeps getting crushed by admin creep, broken systems, and leadership’s obsession with data collection over mission execution. The boys react to a viral “Death by a Thousand Clicks” memo allegedly written by a frustrated commander explaining how endless CBTs, duplicate databases, broken computer systems, mandatory trackers, and pointless compliance ... | 52m 22s | ||||||
| 5/20/26 | Ops Brief 159: Daily Drop - 20 May 2026 - USAF Bonus Cuts & NATO Shot Down a Ukrainian Drone?! | Send us Fan Mail Peaches is back with the May 20 Daily Drop, and this one’s got everything: shrinking bonuses, carrier problems, Iranian escalation, NATO chaos, and the Pentagon throwing half a billion dollars at counter-drone tech. The United States Army keeps pushing force transformation while Europe braces for more U.S. troop withdrawals. Poland is openly stressing about losing American presence—and the billions that come with it. Meanwhile the United States Navy says the plumbing drama ab... | 18m 02s | ||||||
| 5/18/26 | Ops Brief 158: Daily Drop - 18 May 2026 - Bayonets Are Back & OSI Betrayal | Send us Fan Mail Peaches is back for the May 18 Daily Drop, and this one goes everywhere—from bayonet charges and Indo-Pacific deterrence… to carrier deployments, combat rescue upgrades, shady investigations, and why artificial intelligence still can’t replace grit. The United States Army is bringing bayonet assaults back to Ranger School, the USS Gerald R. Ford returns from an 11-month combat deployment, the United States Marine Corps is rehearsing island seizures across the Philippines, and... | 31m 20s | ||||||
| 5/18/26 | Ep 587: PJ to A-10 Pilot… Then DUDE44 Happened | Send us Fan Mail Peaches, Trent, and Jason Attinger—aka AT—are back in the team room for one of the most legit combat rescue conversations we’ve ever had. AT didn’t just talk about rescue… he lived it. Former United States Air Force Pararescue operator. Commissioned officer. Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II pilot. And now one of the guys helping preserve the Sandy mission when the military needs it most. This episode goes deep into DUDE44—what happened, how combat search and rescue actu... | 1h 14m 20s | ||||||
| 5/15/26 | Ep 586: “Extreme Violence?”—Why Civilians Don’t Get War | Send us Fan Mail Peaches is solo in the team room—and this one turns into a full-on reality check. It starts simple: pre-recording for Nashville, OTS updates, life logistics. Then he rolls into a Pentagon clip that asks one of the dumbest questions imaginable—what does it feel like to order violence? That’s where it flips. Peaches breaks down the truth most people will never understand: war isn’t emotional, it isn’t personal, and it sure as hell isn’t about “feeling powerful.” It’s abou... | 43m 14s | ||||||
| 5/14/26 | Ops Brief 157: Daily Drop - 14 May 2026 - Navy Might Go BROKE & Russia Just Launched 800 Drones?! | Send us Fan Mail Peaches is back for the May 14 Daily Drop—and today’s brief hits everything from tragedy in Morocco to artificial intelligence saving aircraft in live combat. The United States Army confirms recovery of both soldiers lost off the Moroccan coast, the United States Navy admits it could literally run out of operational money by July, and the United States Marine Corps is now forcing service-wide AI training. Then it gets wild—Air Force Special Operations Command says an AI... | 16m 37s | ||||||
| 5/13/26 | Ops Brief 156: Daily Drop - 13 May 2026 - Vegas Heroes Stop an Active Shooter & Iran Costs Hit $29B | Send us Fan Mail Peaches is back for the May 13 Daily Drop—and this one starts personal. Before the military headlines, Peaches breaks down what happened right there in Las Vegas: two regular dudes stepped into chaos at a local grocery store, took on an armed shooter, protected families, and very likely saved lives. No uniforms. No backup. Just action when action mattered. Then the Ops Brief kicks off: the United States Army heads back to the southern border, Rangers bring bayonet train... | 25m 13s | ||||||
| 5/12/26 | Ops Brief 155: Daily Drop - 12 May 2026 - AI Is Coming for Promotions | Send us Fan Mail Peaches is back for the May 12 Daily Drop—moving fast because he’s got a meeting… but somehow still manages to cover missing soldiers, nuclear battleships, AI taking over the Pentagon, and why the United States Coast Guard might have the coolest recruiting footage in the military right now. The United States Army confirms recovery efforts off Morocco, the USS Gerald R. Ford breaks deployment records, the Navy wants nuclear-powered Trump-class battleships, and the Marines keep... | 16m 52s | ||||||
