Aaron and Peaches are back in the team room for a public episode, and this one goes exactly where you think it’s going: military fitness standards, Pete Hegseth, the UFC, fat troops, fake plate outrage, human performance, AI, bad tactical training, Marines getting yelled at in public, and yes… somehow the Vandenberg UFO incident.
They get into why physical standards still matter, why people are suddenly pretending government officials need to be elite athletes, how human performance is finally becoming a serious military priority, and why some “tactical” training videos on the internet are basically just paid auditions for disaster.
They also hit AI tools, admin dominance, general officer career paths, Space Force weirdness, and a woman trying to debate Marines during Fleet Week.
Drop a comment with your take: are standards coming back, or are we still pretending being out of shape is fine?
