In today’s cerebral Daily Ops Brief, Peaches breaks down the Defense Department’s latest dumpster fire: whether to park Space Command’s shiny new paradigm shift in Colorado or Alabama. Also, some genius of the Military Industrial Complex just texted the entire Internet our plans for Houthi rebels. Throw in DEI purges, child care collapse, and a disgraced AFSOC leader, and you've got a government that’s firing on no cylinders.

We cover real estate speculation, government hiring freezes that move slower than molasses in formation, and why Canada’s aircraft shopping spree might be a Costco mistake.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• Colorado is bougie, but Huntsville comes with humidity.
• Space Command is conducting 100% of operations from a basement.
• NSA definitely needs better op-sec on Signal.
• Alabama: because civilians LOVE relocating.
• 13 computer nerds are about to rage-quit the Pentagon.
• AFSOC gets messy (again).
• If you think child care isn’t a readiness issue, think again.

In this delightfully grim and accidentally informative Daily Ops Brief, Peaches breaks down the Pentagon's latest hits—from promoting a retired Guard general (cue the four-star meltdowns) to “oops-we-erased-history” DEI compliance, all while dunking on the commissary’s soggy sandwiches and the illusion of DoD fiscal responsibility.

If you've ever wondered how to:

• Launch rockets on a budget
• Justify skipping base grocery runs
• Navigate forced cultural purges via AI
• Or survive Space Force acronyms without rage-quitting the internet
   ...this one's for you.

Also, you’ll never look at sushi the same again. And that’s a promise.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• The commissary might not be a bargain—unless brain fog is your thing
• DEI removal via "Find & Replace" was totally not weaponized
• Brad Pitt’s haircut is still somehow not the worst DoD decision
• AGR-20 rockets = tiny, beautiful laser death
• Retired Guard generals are now leapfrogging active-duty four-stars—let the salt flow

This episode is what happens when a luxury leatherwork lunatic, a snake-breeding psycho, and a jiu-jitsu savage walk into a podcast studio—and it's the same damn guy. We sit down with AG, the founder of Toehold Flip-Flops and covert overlord of the reptilian fashion empire. From $65,000 snakes (yes, danger noodles with price tags) to handmade American flip-flops that slap harder than your DI at BMT, AG unpacks his borderline obsessive pursuit of excellence, legacy, and customer service that’s so savage it answers DMs on Christmas morning. If you're into craftsmanship, combat sports, counter-culture, or calling BS on corporate clowns, welcome to your new religion.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

🐍 Snake breeding isn’t just exotic—it’s art. $65K “nope ropes” are the new gold standard.

🩴 Toehold’s flip-flops beat Louis Vuitton, Fendi, and Hermes in a street fight and in luxury.

🇺🇸 "Made in America" shouldn’t be a slogan—it should be a damn threat.

🤯 Customer service that answers faster than your Tinder match on Christmas Day.

🧠 Psychotic obsession vs education. (Seventh grade dropout vs most CEOs.)

🥋 Jiu-jitsu, Glock porn, gear queers, and why cave divers are Darwin Award nominees.

💡 Business isn't about being different. It’s about being better—relentlessly.

😬 CEOs losing money because Becky from social media is just giving refunds instead of flipping the damn lemonade.

Peaches’ back with the Ones Ready Daily Drop, serving up the Department of the Air Force’s juiciest news with a side of zero-BS commentary that’ll make bureaucrats cry. From SpaceX dunking on ULA to become the Space Force’s launch daddy, to the Pentagon slashing IT contracts like a bad breakup, this episode is a rollercoaster of military shake-ups. Oh, and let’s not forget General Dan Cain’s 9/11 gut-check or the Air Force Academy’s faculty cuts that scream “penny-pinching gone wrong.” Peaches doesn’t hold back, calling out the CV-22’s gearbox saga and questioning the Insurrection Act’s J6 vibes. It’s a snarky, no-filter dive into what’s shaking the DoD, with enough shade to keep you smirking.  

Key Takeaways:  

• SpaceX is eating ULA’s lunch, snagging Space Force launch contracts while dropping NRO payloads like it’s no big deal.  
• The Pentagon’s saving $4.2B by axing IT deals, but Jared’s not sold on slashing budgets without a brain.  
• General Dan Cain’s confirmed as Joint Chiefs chair—here’s hoping he fixes the acquisition mess before it implodes.  
• The CV-22 gearbox fix is coming, but why’d it take crashes to figure out it’s been janky forever?  
• Insurrection Act talk has Jared side-eyeing hard—J6 wasn’t an “insurrection,” so let’s not give the DoD a blank check to play cop.

Trent and Peaches are back on the Ones Ready podcast, and this members-only episode is a no-holds-barred roast of Hollywood’s war movie obsession, questionable haircuts, and the veteran life nobody talks about. From dunking on Fury’s overhyped tank drama to unpacking why Brad Pitt’s smolder doesn’t make him a thespian god, these two bring the heat with zero filter. They also dive into the real grit—veterans navigating a world that thinks they’re either broken or Rambo, and why everything’s suddenly a “mental health crisis.” Expect sarcasm, contrarian hot takes, and a side of Nickelback love (because why not?). This ain’t your average podcast—it’s a verbal frag grenade for the initiated.  

Key Takeaways:  

• Fury’s tank bromance is overrated, and Brad Pitt’s haircut doesn’t deserve its own fan club.  
• Hollywood’s veteran portrayals are lazy—either you’re a ticking time bomb or a caped crusader, no in-between.  
• The world’s not as soft as you think, but good luck convincing civilians to ditch their bubble wrap mindset.  
• Nickelback’s meme status is peak internet stupidity—they’re still selling out shows while haters cry into their IPAs.  
• Veterans don’t need fixing; they need people to stop assuming they’re one bad day from digging a foxhole in their front yard.

Welcome back to the Ones Ready Podcast! This week, Trent sits down with the beard-wielding, strength-slinging savant, Coach Jimmy of Modern Athlete Strength Systems (MASS)—because apparently we still need to explain why doing curls and skipping cardio won’t cut it in Special Warfare.

Jimmy drops 20+ years of strength & conditioning wisdom (and shade) on everything from why 30-day programs are garbage, to how being “jacked and useless” is an actual epidemic. They dig into MASS’s 90-Day Unchained program, the myth of muscle without function, and how neck strength might just save your career and your spine. Oh, and Trent confesses to avoiding deadlifts for half his career—so, there’s that.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

💥 “Neck and Traps are the New Abs” – Team Yoke is real. Stop skipping your carries.
 💥 30-Day Programs Are Trash – You’re not a new person in a month. You’re just sore and confused.
 💥 Relative > Absolute Strength – Cool, you bench 405. Can you move your own body weight?
 💥 Pull-Ups Are King – If you can’t pull your own body up, you’re not a tactical asset—you’re cargo.
 💥 Your Workout Shouldn’t Kill You – You’re training to last, not collapse in a puddle.
 💥 Zone 2 Is the Hill to Die On – Boring? Yes. Effective? Also yes.
 💥 Start Early, Lift Forever – Barbell doesn’t care how old you are. It only cares if you show up.
 💥 Train Like Your Kids Are Watching – If you can’t play with them, what’s the point?
 💥 Don’t Be That Cop Complaining About Body Armor – Train your neck and act like a professional.
 💥 Buy In or Fall Off – You don’t need more time. You need structure and discipline.

🔥 TacP & ANS—Is the Air Force finally going to make a real selection process?
🔥 Recruiting numbers suddenly “fixed”? What changed overnight?

Budget cuts disguised as “strategy.” Civilian workforce hollowed out while nobody’s watching. Quiet U.S. deployments, Frankenjets getting the spotlight like it’s breaking news, and the Pentagon resurrecting a 2019 Wuhan COVID report...

You’re not crazy—this is just the new normal.

Peaches dives deep into the week’s military madness, pulling no punches and dropping the kind of hot takes that make PAOs sweat. This episode isn’t about shock value—it’s about confirming your suspicions with a healthy dose of sarcasm, insider baseball, and some good ol’ bunker energy.

If you thought the dysfunction was accidental, think again.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• $5.1B in defense cuts and no clear plan to absorb it—just “streamline and pray.”
• Civilians “voluntarily separating” while operations bleed out.
• Panama, South Korea, Ukraine... troop movements in the shadows.
• Golden Dome: not a shield, just a buzzword salad.
• Frankenjet isn’t a miracle—it’s maintenance 101.
• 2019 Wuhan symptoms in U.S. troops? That’s back now too. Neat.
• The Pentagon still doesn’t get memes, but adversaries sure do.
• DoD finally noticed cybersecurity matters... in 2025.

In this heartwarming, sarcastic, slightly chaotic episode, Trent joins M42 Adventures to unpack 20 years of Air Force Special Warfare—and the wild decision-making process that got him there. Spoiler alert: It all started because he hated being told what to do... so naturally, he joined the military.

We dive into what makes someone pursue a path where 90% of people fail, why burning your life down might be the best prep for basic training, and how Ones Ready accidentally became a podcast that survived five years, a global war, and zero profits.

This is an episode for the ones who never fit the mold, who failed college but found meaning in uniform, and who figured out that purpose doesn’t come from clout—it comes from hard lessons, late nights, and unshakable discipline. And yeah, maybe a little stubbornness, too.

You can find M42 Adventures on YouTube at: https://youtube.com/@m42_adventures?si=FenWAdC7eZKH5GTE

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• Trent went from self-proclaimed “stubborn failure” to special ops instructor by doing the most Air Force thing possible: choosing structure over chaos.
• Military training pipelines: where 90% fail and 10% are too dumb to quit.
• “The itch” is real—whether it’s to serve, to suffer, or to find out what you're made of.
• College was a bust. Basic training was a buffet.
• Culinary school and special warfare have more in common than you think.
• Living on base is like working retail and sleeping in the stockroom. Don’t do it.
• Podcasting while active duty? Totally allowed. Just expect side-eyes from every commander ever.
• Retirement: Freedom through discipline, baby. Sleeping in is the new OPORD.
• Still no beard. Still no profits. Still doing it for the tribe.

Today’s Ones Ready Daily Drop is basically a masterclass in budget cuts, broken jets, bureaucratic gridlock, and spicy Space Force drama—with a splash of congressional nonsense and some suspicious real estate investments for good measure. Jared breaks it all down like a tactical briefing crossed with a roast.

We’ve got $15 billion drone programs under review, a B-2 flying over Iran “just to say hi,” and service members getting offered their jobs back after being kicked out over a vaccine—because yeah, that’s how leadership works now. Oh, and Space Force might finally get to move to Huntsville, so go buy some land before another general does.

From Air Force “Frankenjets” stitched together in a garage like military Frankenstein, to “mil-spec” gear that barely meets minimum standards, to ISR flights over the U.S.-Mexico border triggering cartel drone wars—this drop is full of “wait, what?” energy.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• Programs more than 15% over budget? Welcome to the chopping block. Sentinel ICBMs and Air Force One—your days might be numbered.
• B-2s deployed to Diego Garcia. Iran? Interpret that however you want.
• Vaccine holdouts have until April 26 to rejoin the party. About 400 out of 8,000 are biting.
• Air Force & Space Force canceled family days in 2025. Sorry, your BBQ just got operationally unfeasible.
• ISR missions on the southern border heating up as cartels start using drones. Special ops guys are getting itchy trigger fingers.
• “Frankenjet” is real—F-35A rebuilt from two wrecks for $11.7M. Frankenstein would be proud.
• Mar-a-Lago has had 25 no-fly zone violations this year. Apparently, no one reads charts.
• Space Force is working with South America to jam drug lords and track satellites. Sci-fi meets Narcos.
• Huntsville insiders probably already bought the land. Hope you’re not late to the party.
• Pentagon acquisition process: still slow, still broken, still helping China catch up.
• AI for defense: test fast or get left behind—but maybe don’t bet the war on ChatGPT just yet.
• “Mil-spec” just means it meets the bare minimum. You’re not special, Todd.
