Ones Ready

Send us Fan MailPeaches kicks the door in with a full-spectrum roast of the military news cycle—because apparently everything from nuclear micro-reactors to Space Force identity crises hit at once. He drags drones, typhoons, politicians, and anyone who thinks DEI is the DoD’s biggest threat. He calls out NASA’s cooler cousin, dunks on heavy-weather boat psychos, and casually reminds you the feds probably know way more about Epstein than they’ll ever admit. If you came for sugarcoating, you’re lost. If you came for truth bombs from someone who’s actually been there, buckle up.⏱️ Timestamps00:00 Worms Ready and Still Chaotic 00:30 Why Assessment and Selection Isn’t Your CrossFit Warmup 01:40 Vegas OTS Plug Because You Need It 03:00 Army Builds Pocket Nukes 04:20 Drone Threats and Bureaucracy Wrestling 05:20 Navy Ships Doing Navy Ship Things 07:00 Marines vs. Typhoons and Common Sense 08:40 Air Force Leadership Shuffle 10:10 Space Force Still Figuring Out Space 12:20 Coast Guard’s Record Drug Haul and Nightmare Boats 14:20 Pentagon Reform Circus 16:40 Flyover, Saudi Drama, and Internet Meltdowns 18:00 Epstein Files, Government Secrets, and Peaches’ Final Blast🎯 Call-to-Actions👍 Smash Like 🔔 Subscribe or get lost in the algorithm 💬 Drop your hot take 🌟 Review the show 🪖 Join the Ones Ready membership 👕 Grab the merch at onesready.comSupport the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page:  HERERegister for our Operator Training Summit:  OperatorTrainingSummit.comCollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code:  ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code):  ATACLeteDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code:  ONESREADYDFND Apparel - Promo Code:  ONESREADYHoist - Promo Code:  ONESR...

Coming straight off the Nashville event, they pull the curtain back on what really happens when 40 candidates, a handful of coaches, and a mountain of gear collide in one turf-covered facility.Peaches dishes on how sleeping indoors, training for 11 hours in the pool, and running the dreaded 10-ups turned chaos into confidence. Trent talks logistics, lessons learned, and how every OTS somehow tops the last. Together they lay out what’s coming next—Vegas, Europe, and maybe a few surprises along the way.Then the gloves come off as they shift from pool decks to policy: leadership gone soft, PME that teaches nothing, and a culture allergic to accountability.

With fake valor awards, bogus war stories, and a book full of stolen valor sauce, Tim Kennedy’s credibility is in free fall. But here's the twist: do we keep crushing him, or is it time to circle the wagons and offer a redemption arc?Jared takes you behind the scenes of the veteran influencer world—calling out the hypocrisy, wrestling with his own moments of public misrepresentation (yep, even at a graduation), and pushing back against the idea that every screw-up deserves permanent exile.

In this episode, he tears into the latest “motivational masterpiece” that the Air Force somehow thought needed to exist. Spoiler: it sounds like ChatGPT wrote it after watching too many recruiting commercials.Between roasting the wannabe warrior poetry and showing love for the real grind behind training, Peaches breaks down what’s right, what’s wrong, and why the people building creeds instead of warriors need to hit the pool and rethink their lives.

Send us Fan MailEveryone online says the new Special Warfare “Zulu Course” is trash—so Peaches and Trent decided to light it up. This isn’t a soft take or sanitized military PR moment. It’s two retired operators roasting the chaos, the memes, and the ridiculous leadership gag orders that make no sense. Peaches calls out the “change fatigue” across the DOD, breaks down why the Zulu rollout will be rough, and drops truth bombs about command cluelessness, budget black holes, and the myth of the “company man.” If you can’t handle sarcasm and honesty about how training actually works, go listen to something else.⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 – Peaches calls out “Company Man” energy 05:30 – The Zulu Course meltdown begins 08:40 – Change fatigue & leadership chaos 13:00 – Meme wars and gag orders gone stupid 19:00 – Legal orders, gag orders, and OSI overreach 25:00 – Why the first 3 Zulu classes will be total chaos 33:00 – Training breakdown: what “advanced” really means (hint: nothing) 41:00 – Subsuface swimming & pre-dive prep 52:00 – “They’re still cones” – Peaches vs. the pipeline 55:00 – Peaches’ spicy take on AFSOC “air commandos” 1:02:00 – If the Wing’s paying, Peaches is for sale🎯 Call-to-Actions: 👍 Smash that Like button if you’ve ever survived bad leadership 🔔 Subscribe before your commander issues a gag order 💬 Drop your hot take in the comments 🌟 Leave a review — unless you’re a company man 🪖 Join the Ones Ready Membership for real-world prep 👕 Grab gear and merch at onesready.comSupport the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page:  HERERegister for our Operator Training Summit:  OperatorTrainingSummit.comCollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code:  ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code):  ATACLeteDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code:  ONESREADYDFND Apparel - Promo Code:  ONESREADYHoist - Promo Code:  ONESR...

Send us Fan MailTrent and Peaches start with monster trucks and end up demolishing the Special Warfare pipeline. But first, they highlight the absolute unit that is Scott Ruskan, a Coast Guard rescue swimmer who saved 165 people during the Texas floods—only to get force-fed a hero tour he didn’t ask for.What follows is a surgical takedown of the Pentagon’s latest “reforms” to the AFSW pipeline: less training, more liability, and a slow slide toward mediocrity—all in the name of speed. The guys torch the leadership failures, expose the false promises of a “common skills course,” and explain why survivability isn’t something you sprinkle on later.Also: weather nerds vs. floodplain ignorance, Epstein conspiracies, and why the real danger isn’t water—it’s decisions made by people who never touched it.🔥 Key Takeaways:🚁 Scott Ruskan is a damn legend. 165 lives saved, no ego, just action.⚠️ The hero tour = psychological landmine. Repeated exposure to trauma masked as “recognition.”🧠 The Gill-Man Amnesia Effect: Everyone forgets yesterday’s lies when today's headline feels good.🥽 Water confidence can’t be bolted on. It needs to be baked in—early and often.⏱️ 12-month pipelines = tactical malpractice. Nobody wants a part-trained teammate.🪖 SOCOM's contractual standards? Being ignored. The Air Force is daring them to care.⚔️ Officers who push back get fired. Bootlickers get promoted.🧃 Fast-roping is fine, repelling is too dangerous? Sure, Jan.🌊 Pacific fight coming, but water training gets cut?
