Ep 527: Operator Training Summit Recap

You think you’re ready for Special Warfare? Cute. In this episode, Peaches and Trent drop the politeness and torch the myths about “easy” prep events. They unpack the Operator Training Summit in Nashville—where candidates got humbled by water, cramps, and the truth. From 10-ups that wreck your soul to cadre stories that’ll make your recruiter sweat, it’s a masterclass in controlled chaos.

Peaches calls out Air Force leadership theater, fat instructors preaching fitness, and the obsession with “leadership” over competence. Trent goes full send on accountability, bad policy, and why “thinking out loud” generals ruin morale. Somewhere between caffeine-fueled rants and poolside pain, the Ones Ready crew gives a reality check every wannabe operator (and every soft-handed staff officer) needs to hear.

If you’ve ever thought “I could crush that,” this one’s for you. Spoiler: you couldn’t.
