Grant Broggi, Jeff Buege, and Trey Gottlich dive into Marine Corps-style “staff brief” chaos, Cajun Sergeant Major impressions, training while sick, squat programming for busy dads, and surprise guest Matios crashing the show out of nowhere. The guys also talk Texas towns, lifting consistency, deadlifting at 11 years old, Bitcoin, soccer, and the reality of getting back into training after weeks off from illness.
