Ep 525: The Zulu Course Is a Dumpster Fire (Or Maybe Not?)

Everyone online says the new Special Warfare “Zulu Course” is trash—so Peaches and Trent decided to light it up. This isn’t a soft take or sanitized military PR moment. It’s two retired operators roasting the chaos, the memes, and the ridiculous leadership gag orders that make no sense. Peaches calls out the “change fatigue” across the DOD, breaks down why the Zulu rollout will be rough, and drops truth bombs about command cluelessness, budget black holes, and the myth of the “company man.” If you can’t handle sarcasm and honesty about how training actually works, go listen to something else.
