MBRS 106: Fat Privilege, Fake Service Dogs, and Why Veterans Need to Chill
This episode is only available to subscribers.
Ones Ready MBRS Only
Exclusive access to bonus episodes!Peaches and Trent are back in the Team Room, and this one goes exactly how you think it will.
It starts with “fat privilege” comments from listeners and quickly spirals into airline policies, fake service dogs, and the growing culture of entitlement—from civilians and veterans. Along the way, they hit on firearms, military culture, politics, and why victimhood is becoming the default setting for way too many people.
There’s also a real conversation buried in here about standards—whether it’s fitness, service, or just being honest with yourself. Not everyone’s going to like it. That’s kind of the point.
If you’re tired of excuses, this one will land. If not… you’re probably the one they’re talking about.
