Ep 463: Nickelback, Doom-Ups, and the Dollhouse: A Masterclass in Chaos
This week on Ones Ready, Aaron and Peaches dive into an episode that’s part roast, part rock anthem, and part tactical life lesson—mostly about how not to book an Airbnb. What started as a “members only” chat quickly spiraled into Nickelback fanboying, ruined daughters with backstage passes, and tactical breakdowns of why doom-ups are Satan’s favorite underwater evolution. We cover everything from civilian helicopters to hot air balloon jumps, operator training summits, and the exact moment Aaron got seduced by a business class seat.
Meanwhile, Trent’s missing (again), living his best life backstage with Canada’s greatest export, while Aaron is out here trying not to get PTSD from dolls in his Airbnb bedroom. You’re not ready for this one—and that’s fine, because neither were we.
🔥 Key Takeaways:
- Trent ditched the pod for Nickelback. Bold move, Cotton.
- Backstage passes + first class flights = parenting mistakes you can’t walk back.
- Civilian helicopter tours = hell no. But V-22s? Apparently fine.
- Doom-ups are proof that instructors have a personal vendetta against your sinuses.
- Operator Training Summits are NOT smoke sessions—they’re your only shot at doing things right before it’s too late.
- Aaron’s the guy who gets mistaken for an asshole online but heals your soul in person. Surprise!
- Peaches books an Airbnb called The Dollhouse. It is exactly what it sounds like.
- Yes, we’re still figuring this out. No, we’re not sorry.
🧠 PSA: If you think Nickelback sucks, we challenge you to not sing along when “How You Remind Me” comes on. Go ahead. We’ll wait.
