Welcome to the May 2nd Daily Drop, where Jared breaks down the absolute fever dream that is today’s Air Force memo—everything from piano-burning ceremonies to Space Force launching a special operations element (yes, you read that right). This episode’s a rollercoaster through military bureaucracy, geopolitical chaos, and some straight-up “wait… what?” moments.

We’re talking about 8,000 troops at the southern border, the Air Force testing robo-wingmen, Japan mad about a B-1 bomber blocking their runway, and Guam getting overrun by 25,000 stray dogs (no, seriously). Also, shoutout to the Air Force for helping control said dogs… because readiness, I guess?

Throw in canceled Iran nuclear talks, a new missile shield with a suspiciously biblical name (“Golden Dome”), and a nominee for Undersecretary getting roasted for telling the truth—and you’ve got an episode that proves the Pentagon never sleeps… but maybe should.

👉 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, leave a review, comment, and snag some Ones Ready merch while you’re at it. And yeah—get your butt signed up for the Operator Training Summit in June.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• 🪖 Second military zone set up at the southern border—with warships. Because nothing says “border patrol” like a Navy destroyer.
• 📉 Military sexual assault reports down 4%… harassment up 1%. Progress?
• 🚀 Trump’s “Golden Dome” missile shield is happening. Prepare for biblical memes.
• 🤖 Collaborative Combat Aircraft testing kicks off—robo-wingmen inbound.
• 💸 $620 million more for Pacific military exercises. Taiwan gets $850M. Everyone else? Figure it out.
• ✈️ B-1B emergency landing shuts down Japan’s airport for 90 minutes. Oops.
• 🐶 Guam has 25,000 stray dogs and the Air Force is on cleanup duty.
• 🎹 Burning pianos is still a thing. And we’re here for it.
• 🌌 Space Force building its own special ops element. Time to spec ops… in space.
• 🛰️ Space Force drops $237 million on small satellites. Elon’s somewhere smiling.
• 💬 “Lessons from 1958” = AKA we’re still winging Taiwan policy.

In this brutally honest and surprisingly soothing episode, Peaches teams up with Dr. Leah Kaylor—THE sleep czar of the FBI (no, seriously)—to talk about the one thing that could make you a better operator, athlete, student, or just a more tolerable human: sleep.

Dr. Kaylor isn’t here to fluff your pillow. She's here to fix your broken circadian rhythm, crush your excuses, and maybe ruin your pre-workout addiction.

• The 3 S’s of what your bed is actually for: sleep, sex, and sickness.

In today’s Daily Drop, Jared pulls no punches while breaking down the latest military circus—from AFN killing off its podcasts (wait, they had podcasts?) to the Air Force Academy gutting its own rocket science faculty because “budget.” And just when you thought it couldn’t get weirder: Space Force is dropping a documentary… and no, it’s not sci-fi.

We’ve got F-35 inventory fraud ($11 billion missing? Casual.), Travis AFB potentially doubling as an immigration detention center (because why not?), and the Air Force cutting family days because “readiness.” Oh, and the Pentagon still can’t pass an audit. But sure, let’s launch more documentaries instead of fixing jets.

Tune in for a raw, snarky breakdown of the memo that hits generals’ inboxes but never gets real talk—until now. And yeah, you’re gonna want to sit down for this one.

👉 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, comment, hit that notification bell, snag some merch at onesready.com, and maybe check out a summit that won’t get canceled like half the DoD’s programs.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• 💥 12,000 civilian jobs cut in the Air Force = “readiness” nightmare.
• 🛩️ $11 billion in F-35 inventory fraud… and they just noticed.
• 🏗️ Travis AFB might house immigrants now. Totally normal.
• 🎧 AFN kills podcasts nobody knew existed.
• 🤦‍♂️ Air Force Academy slashes rocket science professors, but keeps the PR machine alive.
• 🚀 Space Force documentary “Always Above” premieres… for who exactly?
• 💰 Pentagon audit? LOL. Still failing.
• 👨‍👩‍👧 Family days axed “for lethality.” Because tired airmen = lethal airmen?

Guess what? You don’t need another Instagram quote about "manifesting your dream life." You need a personal revolution. This week on Ones Ready, we bring in the savage soul surgeon himself — David Waldy, the Fierce Empathy Coach — to rip your excuses straight out by the roots and hand you a shovel to dig your way out of mediocrity.

We dive deep into the real work: why self-sabotage is lazy thinking, how forgiveness isn’t for your abuser — it's for your freedom — and why clarity, constructs, commitment, and consistency (yeah, C4, baby!) are the only real bombs you should be setting off in your life.

If you've ever used "trauma" as a participation trophy or wondered why you can’t seem to get unstuck no matter how many motivational videos you watch, this one's for you. (Spoiler: it's you. You're the problem. And the solution.)

Stay tuned, stay uncomfortable, and stop being allergic to your own potential.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• You Are Not Your Trauma: Stop worshiping your wounds like they’re personality traits.
• Fierce Empathy > Fake Empathy: Real empathy demands truth — not participation trophies.
• Reprogram or Stay Programmed: Your brain is just a scratched CD... fix it or keep skipping.
• The Power of C4: Clarity, Constructs, Commitment, Consistency — blow up your old self and build better.
• Selfish is Selfless: Prioritize you if you actually want to serve others well.
• No One’s Coming to Save You: God gave you the gifts — it’s your job to sharpen them.

In this unapologetically chaotic daily drop, Jared rolls through everything from drones dropping grenades to pedos in court and AI that’s apparently too complex for senior leadership to Google. Welcome to the April 30th edition of the Ones Ready podcast—where we break down the actual DoD news that gets sent to generals...and then we make fun of it.

From failed Firefly launches to tribal warfare over F-15EX seating arrangements, this episode is basically the Pentagon's group chat with better commentary. Also, find out which documentary produced by the Obamas might make you respect the Thunderbirds (but probably won’t), and why the “Women, Peace, and Security” program was killed for being “woke,” even though it came from the Trump administration. Yeah, we’re confused too.

Stick around for:

• A take on why AI still scares generals more than enlisted TikToks
• A borderline unhinged breakdown of why drone swarms are everyone's problem
• Whether dropping 500lb bombs equals dead livestock in Houthi press releases
• Thoughts on Thunderbirds, martial law, and why fake rifles in basic are weak sauce

And yes—don’t forget to like, subscribe, comment, check out 18AlphaFitness, and hit up the Ones Ready merch store. This podcast is for operators, future operators, and the people wondering why military budgeting is run like a reality show.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• 🛩️ Homeland drone defense is lacking, and quadcopters are getting spicy.
• 🤖 Military AI adoption is a disaster, mostly because leadership doesn’t understand it.
• 🧨 Yemen claims 70 civilians dead from U.S. strikes… we call B.S.
• 💣 F-15EX tribal wars: Do we need a WSO or nah?
• 🪖 Fake rifles in basic? Major General Davidson thinks so. Jared disagrees.
• 🎥 Netflix Thunderbirds doc drops soon—produced by Barack and Michelle. You heard that right.
• ⚖️ Officer at Nellis faces trial for child sex crimes. Innocent until proven guilty, but still gross.
• 🚀 Firefly launch failed—satellite took a nosedive into the Pacific. Oof.
• 📜 Congress increased the defense budget, because obviously.
• 🚓 Trump’s martial law-lite EO freaks out civil liberties folks.
• 👩🏿‍💼 6888t

You thought the official stories were safe? Think again. This week, Ones Ready goes nuclear with Matt Cubbler — Army veteran, retired cop, and the man Special Operations would really prefer you ignore. We dive into why Matt’s been dubbed the “SEAL Killer” (spoiler: it’s not because he stormed a compound) and how decades of government gaslighting, backroom deals, and military industrial self-worship led to the cover-ups of heroes like John Chapman and Job Price.

From exposing the Wizard-of-Oz level fraud inside the SEAL brand, to calling out the government's disturbing addiction to "just trust us, bro," this episode rips the mask clean off. If you're still clinging to bedtime stories about flawless American heroism, go ahead and unsubscribe now — it's about to get real uncomfortable.

Stay tuned, stay mad, and don't forget: If you're not questioning it, you're part of it.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• Government Gaslighting 101: Matt’s first-hand account of realizing the “system” was built on preserving itself — not truth.
• The John Chapman Cover-Up: How crystal-clear video footage STILL couldn't break through the Pentagon’s PR machine.
• Who Killed Job Price? Spoiler: It wasn’t Job.
• Why the SEAL Community’s Problems Aren’t "Bad Apples" — It’s the Whole Orchard.
• Why “trust but verify” should just be “verify and then still don't trust.”
• How bureaucratic self-preservation kills truth, careers, and sometimes heroes.
• The new documentary: pulling the rug out from under decades of SEAL fairy tales.

Welcome to the April 29th Ones Ready Daily Drop — where Jared sifts through the bureaucratic swamp of DoD updates and gives you the brutally honest download your commander definitely won’t.

From a proposed Pentagon rebrand that sounds like it came straight from a Call of Duty menu (“War Department,” anyone?) to a grandma trying to sue the Navy to become a SEAL (yep, that’s real), this one has it all.

We’re also unpacking the dumpster fire that is the commissary system ("now with modern grocery practices!" in 2025... wow), the murky legal dumpster of the Feres Doctrine, and why half of the Air Force lies to doctors just to stay on flight status. Add a side of Space Force launches, mental health stigma, Ukraine-Russia peace rumors, and a DUI case that’ll punch you in the gut.

All killer, no filler — unless you count the commissary aisle.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• Houthi Attacks Down, But Not Out: Operation Rough Rider's real MVP? Deterrence through annihilation.
• Trump’s Military-Police Crossover Plans: Cue the Posse Comitatus panic.
• Medical Waiver Reviews Might Actually Make Sense.
• Commissary ‘Transformation’ in 2025: Welcome to 2003, Troops.
• Feres Doctrine: Still Protecting the System From You.
• Airmen Lying to Docs? Yes. Still. Always.
• Mental Health Programs Trying to Catch Up to the Culture.
• Negligent Homicide, Stabbing, and Court-Martial Drama at Ramstein.
• The Grandma Who Wants to Be a SEAL (Seriously, Look It Up).
• Ukraine Peace Talks and Fighter Jet Politics — Because Why Not?

Welcome to the most wholesome, family-friendly members-only episode we’ve ever recorded—just kidding, grab your ear muffs and a cold beverage. In this beautifully chaotic meltdown, Aaron and Peaches go nuclear on HOA Karens, wannabe mentorship DMs, and every fragile ego that thinks dropping into the Ones Ready inbox swinging is a good idea. Spoiler: it’s not.

We dive into brutal truths about security forces, why fantasy football is serious business, the art of getting absolutely throttled by life (and still talking smack), and why mentorship is earned, not assumed. Also included: Toehold flip-flop worship, Browns fan despair, and a sneak preview of upcoming OTS chaos in San Diego.

This isn’t just behind the scenes — it’s under the hood, covered in motor oil, flipping off the check engine light. You're welcome.
