• ***Sneak Peek***MBRS 60: The Bonus is Gone, Your Orders are Delayed, and the Air Force Blames... Nobody

  Send us a textWelcome to the most brutal members-only episode yet—where we air out the entire damn mess the Air Force tried to sneak past you. No prep. No script. Just raw frustration, hot takes, and wild truths about canceled reenlistment bonuses, halted retirement orders, and why the hell the CMSAF wasn’t even in the loop.Peaches, Trent, and Aaron tear into this SRB and retirement trainwreck like it owes them backpay—with spicy theories, blunt facts, and zero patience for Pentagon PR spin. We talk broken trust, messaging failures, the impending war on special pays, and the ripple effect of gutting morale across the enlisted force—especially in Special Warfare.This one’s for the zone E operators, the “non-sexy AFSCs,” and every Airman who’s tired of being told to “just serve harder.” You’re not crazy. You’re just in the Air Force.🔥 Key Takeaways:CMSAF wasn’t told about the bonus cancellation. Let that sink in.Bonuses gone. Retirement/separation orders delayed. Messaging? Garbage.SRBs are retention tools, not handouts—and they just got nuked mid-cycle.“We ran out of money” = cover for shady spending they don’t want audited.Zone D/E folks (16–20+ years in) are the real casualties here—watch them walk.Special pays are next on the chopping block. Jump pay? Bye.Air Force leadership has mastered the art of “oops, we forgot to tell you.”If you want to kill morale, this is how you do it—death by a thousand memos.⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 – No YouTube money, no agenda, just chaos 01:30 – Aaron’s reel pops off: “Shut up and let someone else talk” 03:00 – Operator Training Summit preview + bobbing struggles 06:00 – Taylor Starch: Fitness cyborg & value machine 09:00 – SRB drama begins: Bonus cuts + CMSAF in the dark 12:00 – Theory: They don’t want people looking at the books 14:00 – End strength ≠ readiness for critically manned AFSCs 17:00 – Special pays are next—prepare to lose your jump pay 21:00 – “Do it for service” ≠ doing 1.75 jobs unpaid 25:00 – Air Force sucks at messaging. Still. 28:00 – Real-world impacts: PCS delays, retirement chaos 32:00 – Why zone E dudes wSupport the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page: HERECollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code: ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code): ATACLeteCardoMax - Promo Code: ONESREADYDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADYDFND Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADYHoist - Promo Code: ONESREADYKill Cliff - Pr...
