  • ***Sneak Peek***MBRS 68: Tim Kennedy Lied—Now What? Insulate or Isolate?
    Send us a textIn this unfiltered members-only solo rant, Jared wrestles with the never-ending Tim Kennedy drama—because apparently just being a Green Beret and UFC fighter wasn’t enough for the guy. 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. He shares real stories of leadership, PTSD, and the difference between isolating and insulating someone who’s fallen off the rails.Snarky, reflective, and brutally honest—this is what happens when you're tired of the internet outrage cycle but still believe in accountability.🔥 Key Takeaways:Tim Kennedy lied. A lot. And got caught.His defenders? Friends, influencers, and the veteran bro-sphere.Ostracizing vs. insulating: which path actually helps the community?Redemption doesn’t mean erasing consequences—but it does require a door left open.Jared shares a real-world example of insulating a struggling teammate—and why it paid off.Even decorated warriors can spiral.

  • ***Sneak Peek***MBRS 85: SWTW Made a Creed for the Zulu Course?!
    Send us a textYou ever read something so cringey it physically hurts? Peaches has—and it’s called the Zulu Course Creed. 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.

  • Ep 525: The Zulu Course Is a Dumpster Fire (Or Maybe Not?)
    Send us a textEveryone 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: 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...

  • ***Sneak Peek***MBRS 67: "We Broke the Pipeline... On Purpose?" – Monster Trucks and Hero Coasties
    Send us a textTrent 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? Make it make sense.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 – Monday Mayhem & Monster Trucks 01:40 – Coast Guard’s Scott Ruskan: 165 Lives Saved 04:15 – The Real Cost of Going Viral 06:30 – Texas Flooding: Preventable Tragedy, Zero Prep 10:45 – Weather Nerds Knew.

The Government Killed It. 25:00 – “Big Beautiful Pipeline” Update 28:15 – Why the 12-Month Pipeline Myth is Bullshit 30:30 – GWOT Hangover: SOF Got Bloated 34:00 – Support 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...
