Ep 530: The Air Force Won’t Say “Our Bad”—So Peaches and Trent Call Them On It
Peaches and Trent dive straight into the chaos—no disclaimers, no corporate tone, just two dudes calling out the absurdity of modern military leadership. From COVID reinstatement madness to commanders who rubber-stamp illegal orders and still get promoted, Peaches unloads on the Air Force’s “do as we say, not as we do” culture. Trent breaks down why officers obsess over year-groups like it’s astrology, why reinstated members get screwed, and how the Pentagon avoids accountability like it’s a PT test. The boys torch everything from Secret Service incompetence to Navy misery to teenagers who show up to job interviews looking like they escaped Hot Topic at 2 a.m. It’s raw, it’s ruthless, it’s Ones Ready at full power.
