Ep 573: Run More. Stop Crying.

One, two, three. Go! King! Raja! Action!

One, two, three. One, two, three. Go! I'm too lucky.

I'm not a brother like God.

He's critiqued when I hated him. I'm a certified pro.

“The blood's where it tears, that's 24 hours.”

Back on my name, I'll trust you, count. Independent winner, but I count my press. I'll know about seven. I learned my lesson. Let me go, put it on record.

I'm in the top five over the top five network. Way back, way back, way. They ain't believe in me. This took years, you know, I do recently. Tell me what you see in me.

Feel like it did. Ain't nobody better now. Got 'em all fear me. Ain't nobody better when I'm better than that fear. I'm a point like to be in the world of security.

Watch out, you left. I'm gon' take them. I'm made it. Hey, everybody.

Welcome back to the Windrady podcast.

You're in the team room before we get into this next episode. We're Trent and I just kind of ramblin' talk about whatever we're going to talk about. With love for you guys, ahead over to tasty games. You guys have heard us talk about it before. They've got creatine gummies.

They've got caffeine gummies that are mocha-flavored. The creatine gummies for women. They've got pre-workout. BCA hydration stuff as well. They're mocha-flavored, but, you know, my favorite, the new tropics.

These bad boys will get you going. Not, and I don't mean like, get you going in the pre-workout. And I mean, get you locked in. They've got all kinds of different stuff. Tom gummies as well.

I'm gonna need to get my hands on some of those. Try and call my brain down a little bit. Oh, and it's got no melatonin' in it, which is good. Because I tell you what, I take melatonin' and I am done steast. I'm awake the next day, but I'm not really awake.

I'm just up there operating. You know what I mean? Like, the lights are on, but nobody's home. Also, if you guys wouldn't mind having over to Onesrated.com. And if you go over to the right-hand side,

where it says, "trip." I clicked on it. I hit partner discounts, right? And what that'll do is take it a partner discounts, and you scroll on it, and you can see all of our partners here.

“So if you want to check any of them out, you can.”

Today, I'd like to point your attention to a title.

First, if you click on any of those links there,

and I'm going to exit this, and then take it to it. Because what happens is, as long as you don't have pop-up blockers, and able to, boom! It says, "We have sent you a coupon, and just hit your team coupon, and boom!"

There you go. You get yourself a discount on any of their gear. So if you're looking for rocket-fins, booties, make sure you buy booties if you're going to get a rocket-fins. Talk about high volume mass, snorkel, roaps, rucksack, boots.

Like desert, I say desert, but boots that you would wear in uniform to run. They've asked smartwatchers, all that kind of great stuff. So great partners of ours. They've been around for a long time with us,

and we love having them on board. So, as you guys are preparing, you definitely want to go get some of their equipment. Also, if you head on down to, well, let's give John Mloro a shout out as well.

He's got a leap, the elite actor Academy. To guys don't know him, he was an Abbot Rock climber, an Explorer, and got found by NASA, and he's got a great story about where he went and interviewed for NASA,

and he's like, dude, this is, I'm telling you, I'm not your guy, and then they found out that he was a rock climber, and started picking out him on that, and then brought him in so that he could design

the next generation of spacesuit or Martian suit, because thinking about the way Mars looks, it kind of looks like Arizona and Nevada, that kind of stuff. So, and he's a rock climber,

and there's probably going to be some rock climbing on Mars in a sort of weird way, and so they grabbed him, and he worked for NASA to help design the next Martian space suit.

So, he has online academies, and online coaching and stuff like that,

“and if you want to get a discount on that,”

you can go to his site and click on any of these links, and then use the promo code when you're ready to get some of his stuff. Now, also, finally, modern athlete strength systems.

They've got two different programs for you. They've got the Warfighter, and then they've got the F1/12 program, which was to sit for you. Like, we worked with them two designists

on high volume running swimming, building in rest days, and rest in recovery, to get you prepared for the pipeline. But you got to do his click on this link.

They deliver you the programming and the coaching through the train heroic app.

That day, you can log it on the app too,

but you can also look for substitutes

“to certain exercises if you don't have that piece of equipment,”

or maybe your hamstring or something like that, and you're like, "I can't do this." There are substitutes, and you can also ask coach, and there's chats in there as well for that.

In order to get the discount, though, you still have to use the promo code when you're ready. All right. Done, skis. Some admin notes here, though,

is that our next operator training summons when it's coming up at the beginning of May, it's in Nashville. It is at a phenomenal facility. You don't want to miss out on this slides are filling up. You get coaching by two PJs,

a special reconnaissance guy. Me, if you're interested in that at all, Taylor Shorge, who is the man's scientist when it comes to anything and everything. It's drink and conditioning.

I mean, he was a Olympic athlete,

and we also have a special guest coming out,

which is going to be an officer, a special tax officer. He's going to come and not just coach and teach and instruct, but also if you have questions about being an officer in the Air Force or his special tax officer,

or any of our, you know, tapios or crows or anything like that. He's the guy to talk to about that. So come check us out,

“operator training summons.com to get registered.”

All right. Now enjoy this episode. See you. What does it do it? Everybody welcome back to the ones ready podcast.

Stay where we're going to talk about how to best prepare for the pipeline. Run a lot. All right, Jerry. Now that we got that out of the way. What else we're going to talk about?

Yeah. Don't be afraid. What pile on piggyback to that is.

Don't think that you're going to over train.

Right? 'Cause you're not going to. If anything, you'll under train. You know, one of the, I don't think about this the other day. And that's like, start with like a shameless plug of the OTS.

What I was like, one of the really cool things that the, the folks that go out there get is access to Taylor starch. You know, and Taylor's our favorite highly autistic, you know, fitness friend.

But he will answer your question. Like if you go to OTS, he's like, okay, hit me up. And then if you have any questions, let me know. And he will, he will tell you that you're not over training. He'll back it up with data.

And if you need any help with your programming. Which costs a lot to get from Taylor. In any other, but the, you know, context.

“And I think most people just don't fully grasp or understand.”

The value they're getting at that. Yeah, just to have. It was something crazy that Taylor was paid to come out and speak at some, some event and do. One, one hour workout.

Yeah. To show mobility in the show. You're in range week points. It's what it was. What do you remember?

And it was to show your in range. And it was to show your in range. But yeah, but it was, you know, was. Yeah, so it's very doable. Um, so.

“And it was relations have had a lot of land.”

So they lease it out to first do.

Um, we have solar panels. A lot like a solar panel form. Uh, which hasn't been great. But we least didn't. What's the idea?

But they're really old too. So, you know, they're a lot more efficient now. But that lease is coming up. And they were looking to. Hey, what can we put there now.

To lease it out all this land. And now they're talking about putting an AI data center. Like, like, leasing the land. I mean, good idea, but terrifying. Right.

Um, I mean, because they'll get a butt load of money from whatever AI company does that. And that just feeds the installation. And it's otherwise. It's just land that would just kind of sit there and do nothing. Because we're not going to build.

Like the empty dorms. Yeah. They let anybody like run like CQB drills or anything through there. Have some fun. They're all locked.

“No, I mean, like, no, I meant, like, they're locked.”

But also, they're not connected. You know what I mean? It'd be just good. Yeah. I don't know.

So, I don't know. The military control. I have a theory on it. In terms of, I just think that, I see theory. But I just have the thought on it.

Is we have been so busy doing. G want stuff. And operations over since 2001 that. We haven't neglected our infrastructure on all of our bases.

Because it's always been about, we got to put as much money forward.

Because we can, in the training people and to buying things. And making sure that we're prep for deployments. To make sure that we're successful down range operationally. Which 100% is important. But during that, we were like, I'm not even here to worry about it.

Like screw, screw, remodeling the bathrooms. You're screw or requirements to that home station. And now we get to 2026. And we've recognized this since 2020. We've recognized it for a while, right?

And going, like, oh crap. Things are falling apart. Some of these buildings are World War II. Time-frame. Yeah, it's great.

We have a terrible house, you know. That's falling apart with like eight cars in driveway. But one of those cars is a Corvette brand new. Whatever. It's a pagani.

Whatever it is.

You know, like, it's amazing.

But man, everything else sucks. You know, all the other cars are old. But it's like, look at this, look at this sweet car that I'm going to drive to work in. This is the one. And it's like, everything else is trash.

We're playing poor. Yeah. Well. And then with us losing an E3. It says, they said it's a strategic blow.

They wouldn't have about 16 operational before the attack. Yeah.

“And the E7 Wedgetell, which I think you'd spoken about before on here.”

Because you know more about the stuff than I do. It's not expected to come online till the 2030s. Yeah. So that's not great. Now it's not great.

And we've already, you know, when you start talking about the AYXJ stars and stuff like that, you know, a lot of that stuff's getting phased out and it's super old. And there was some debate on whether or not to still continue with the procurement of the E7, because it's a man to aircraft and putting people in harm's way, or kind of going all in on space assets that are able to do the same thing.

Look, I've only received unclassified briefings on space.

And I am ready for all the internet and everything to get lost all the time. Oh, yeah. Space is scary when you start because of everything that's behind the classified walls. And you hear about what other countries are doing. You're like, I'm sorry, what?

And we're just allowing that. And I'm like, what are we supposed to do? Space is a big place. Like, you know, oh my god, do you? That's crazy.

Yeah.

So yeah, let's invest everything into space.

I mean, I'm not saying we shouldn't invest in space. We absolutely should. But like, if we're so concerned about being a man to just make it an unman platform that flies around and does its thing. Like, what happens if we lose any more of these, these E, whatever E trees.

“Do we rely on the Navy for their capabilities or how do we do it?”

Yeah, I mean, we, I mean, they have very similar capabilities. But it's just, um, we, we'll probably end up contracting it out for other air assets that happened to be. Was it, uh, their go-go government owned contract operated or maybe their go-go contract operated or contract owned contract operated? You know, because there's, you know, you go, won't, wouldn't this private company would have a capability like this?

Yes, there are private companies that build out their, their jets, their planes to do the same thing because if they have the same capability and there's a gap and a more in, in our capability and the air force and we need something that ranged, it is much easier because you just paid them millions of dollars to get them over there, fly an operating and the air force doesn't own the maintenance, doesn't own the parts. It just, you will fly every single day.

So that company has an incredible maintenance team and maintenance packages that it deploys that also make fantastic money.

And that plane flies every day. It's, it's amazing that it's less expensive and then they can, they can pay the people way more. You know, like in the long run, and it's funny too, because when you're talking about this, all I can think about is that stupid crop duster that Afsock made.

“I'm not saying isn't like a good idea kind of, but then it's like, if we just, just hit the button on your phone, this has Eric Prince and it's like, hey, you did this like 20 years ago, right?”

And he's like, yeah, we did, we did. Eric Prince has an app and it's just, you hit it and then he like holographically shows up and he's like, "All right, what are we working with now and what do we need?" All right, I'll have you, I'll have you 10, uh, friggin, you know, little birds over there with 50 assaulters or machinery, whatever you want to call them. And then, uh, there you go. First of all, Eric, I want you to know that I don't like you. He's like nobody likes me, but what do you, what do you want?

We're good, we're good. You're good. He's saying it. I think he knows. Yeah, yeah. So it's not great that one of those was destroyed.

Obviously not great that some people got injured as well. Um, I'm seeing 12, 12 service members were wounded. Yeah, it's 10 to 15, right? Yeah. Um, and this dress, like, which branch, what, you know, like,

I'm assuming if everybody's were Air Force folks. So I hope that they, uh, they're okay. Yeah, exactly. And then, you know, that kind of, so they were in a, the one I understand is they were in a shelter or protected facility anyway. I don't know if it would be a shelter.

And, and I also don't know what defines a protected facility. But usually it is a building with sandbags or something lined on the roof or one of those concrete munker things, which I was going to try and find it.

“But we got into it too quick, because I think the D.O.W. actually put out a bid”

for looking for a company that can provide those concrete shelters within 30 days. Which is not promising when we start talking about boots on the ground. It's an upside view with concrete and rebar with sandbags, right? Am I missing something when it comes to the most? Yeah, it's not.

Now, not less they need a new design because of the drones, but I wouldn't think so. Because they're pretty close off. Like they have the upside down view. Sandbags on top of it, and then there's usually a wall on either side that you could just, to, to still blocks out. Yeah.

Right, we have to contract that out, because those are apparently impossible to build. Well, there's that. It's the timeline, yeah, and the whole thing. Yeah. How many times have you ran into those when you had indirect fire coming your way?

I was just thinking about it.

I'm like, I've never run into those.

Like, I'm not saying it's good either. It's just, you know, whenever we would, we would have to come back to a Candahar or a bog or something like that, and there was incoming. Dude, I just got back in. I'm going to chow.

I'm just walking to chow. Like, and I'm going to go eat. People are, people are running, and it's just like, dude, whatever. Man, I just got back. If it happens to happen, it's like, this thing.

And to be fair, like, at Candahar, it was usually like rockets or mortars. And it's like, dude, like, if it's going to give me, it's going to give me. Like, you start playing the math out in your head. You've seen how these things work. It's like, if I start running, am I running into it?

Or, you know, like, I bear it back. Oh, no. All right, cool.

So that there always was that thing.

It was like the incoming or the outgoing. And we've talked about it on here before. There's, there's no worse feeling than being in a, a port of potty overseas. And it's like a hundred some degrees.

And then you hear the alarms go off and you start hearing the banging. Because that's the only thing. It's like, you just don't want that picture to be in. You don't want your final. Someone's final memory of you.

To, to be you and then exploded port of potty in your body. And whatever position and orientation of your clothing.

“You know, it's gross no matter what, but that's what.”

What most of us thought about when it came to that stuff. And then when I talk about that, too, it's like, so the drones are definitely different than that. So I don't, I don't know what their. The explosive capabilities of them that are coming from my brand seem like a lot more, like a lot more powerful than a lot of the rockets that were the, you know,

Taliban or the whoever was launching my business definitely not the ISI. They had nothing to do with it. And in Afghanistan and then over there in Iraq or, or like, moreders and stuff like that. So there's, there's a certain mentality you got after a while where you, you make that that calculation your head, whether it's worth it to run or,

if it's your time, it's your time and it sounds a little fatalistic. But everybody gets there, you know, because you, you need your sleep. You need your child. You need all these other things. There's a little tiny things that you look forward to.

And, you know, and there's also false alarms, too. Like the alarms will go off and nothing will hit anywhere near the base. And so it's like whatever. So it's, it's funny how, how quickly a lot, a lot of people. And it's not just our, our people, but how everybody on that base,

to a certain extent, just gets comfortable with the idea that if it's their time, it's their time. When it comes to rifles, it's like, it's the magic BB. If the magic BB is going to get you, the golden BB, that's going to get you.

There's really nothing you can do about it.

“If you're doing your job, I the only way to avoid, you know,”

all dangerous to do nothing. And that's not really an option. Yeah, sorry. I had to go ahead. It's just how much the drones might be way more explosive than, like,

the rockets and mortars that we dealt with and all the other stuff. Um, uh, however, you know, we don't be like, whatever man, if it's time, it's time. If I die, die. Yeah.

Yeah. Which is our mother or some sure are happy to hear about. Yeah, sorry, Mom. (laughs) What?

Very wife. (laughs) But, yeah. That's just, you just get numb to it. You almost get nauseated to it.

And that's why, there was a point in time where, like I was jumping so much. That I, I didn't feel the rush. I wasn't worried about anything. I just felt, like, it was like, yeah, whatever. Let's, let's go do it.

And at that point, I knew, okay, I need to slow down a little bit and not jump as much or re-calibrated by brain because I got to the point where, did you just say that? Yeah.

And, uh, and I need, I need to have that mirrorlessness when I'm sitting on the back of a ramp looking out when it's dark.

“With him, he's used on with, on over two with the guys, you know?”

I need that, that nervousness, that anxiousness

because it keeps me sharp, basically.

Yeah, there's no worse feeling than realizing you're not nervous at all. It's like, oh no. But it's like, it's like, it's like, when you go to this, they call it getting sembraved, right?

When you go to those shooting class classes or courses, we're shooting Sims at each other. Like in the beginning, it's a lot easier to take it seriously and to pretend it's real life and to when you get hit like it's a big deal and it hurts more.

But by the third night, it was getting slammed by Sims and you just don't care anymore. You know, you're just like, and you just lose the training value. Yeah. There's a, there is a fine balance between that.

And it's, you can't be so scared to pop your head out and actually commit and do something. It's, there's a line or you can't just sit here and just sit here and take it. There definitely needs to be a pop out.

All right, I'm, I'm taking this and I'm going to own this

Now, oh shit.

Now I'm getting overwhelmed.

Okay. And pull off to the side kind of thing. Yeah. There's a fine line. Yeah.

Yeah. But there comes a point.

“Like I remember there's a point where like you have to,”

we had like a casualty or something, you know, like a similar casualty and you have to be on one side of casualty. There's a window and I had like this three minute firefight with this hot 40 window come back and forth to the window. And he'd show up.

We all just, and then he disappeared and it's like, I can't move. Like the, I can't move until the casualty's gone. Like I can't really even maneuver around because it's, it's my body between him and the casualty.

But it's like, yeah. At a certain point during that firefight, I was like, I just don't care. I'm not even feeling it anymore when he hits me. But I mean, he was getting lit up too.

So it probably wasn't that pleasant. Now he's probably wearing a lot of hoodies and stuff like that. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, that's sweet spot where you still take it seriously,

but you're just able to do your job. Because you want to overcome that like fear, but then like too much further after that, it's just like, guys are just wandering around. Don't care.

And whatever I'm getting shot. Yeah. That's good. The E3 wasn't the only thing that got, well, so that was just short.

That was not coming back as much as I loved my maintainers. That one's done seized. Sounds like a challenge. Y'all. Yeah.

You know what? With enough monster. In monster and Zen. The maintainers. Rebuild everything.

Nothing's impossible. Yeah. So also, it looks like two to three. KC135s were also damaged. Yeah.

I didn't see any of that. Yeah.

“I think those were some of the overhead shots.”

That honestly, like when I first saw some of these,

the before and after shots of the KC135s, it looks like some of them moved out of the way. They moved out of the rest of them or got them airborne. But the ones that were damaged were still on the ground smoking. It's so hard to tell what's AI and what's not.

But, you know, official, official sources are reporting this as real. So it looks like we lost some KC135s. Or they got hit pretty good. Yeah. Okay.

Probably makes them just as effective as they were previously. So, let me hear. News were AI and fake stuff is pretty damn funny and bad. Yes. It's not real.

Or if it was. It is not Air Force. Obviously, or not US because of. It's a green light. Yeah.

And that's pretty bad. Then you have. Yeah. Do I like that one? Yeah.

I like that one. Just people standing there. I don't know. Obviously, I'll tell you something. But, I don't know.

So this is from the attack. This does not. That's still the E3 though. By the looks of it. Yeah, because it's the dish there.

So I don't know. I don't know if any of the. KC135s got got hurt or not. Our damage got hurt. And it looks like.

Yeah. They didn't. They don't have like a lot of it. I think it's just purported right now. So like I even.

You know, it's so hard to keep track of this stuff. Yeah. And then what's real and what's not real. It's a wild time to be alive. Yeah.

It was that overhead ones that you were just on that. They they show as. I think they think that's real. Yeah. It's kind of weird.

And this isn't the best. Aminja that. There was a clear picture of that. Let's say a piece of attack over him. I don't know.

But you could see. You could see it was kind of weird. So it was a little bit grainy from the ground. But the smoke itself seemed like it was higher resolution. Which kind of what to be like.

I don't think that this is real. I don't know how high the smoke gets. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah.

It depends on the camera that they're using and all kinds of stuff. Right. What's the focus area? I don't know. I do want to say as the official unofficial podcast, the United States Air Force.

Like, if you're thinking about joining the Air Force, you know, we always.

“It's been a weird few years where we were like, hey, like you need to be ready for stuff to pop off.”

Because just because we're not actively getting blown up and blown stuff up that you know about. I mean, it's not going to happen. I think there's a little bit of a wake-up call for the Air Force. You know, and then there's some things happening right now with some of our folks.

But like we are.

“We are seeing the the fruits of maybe not training hard enough.”

Maybe not being hard enough on our people, you know.

Yeah. So, you know, if you're thinking about joining the Air Force, like maybe. This is a reality. This is like, it's a good reality check for everybody. Whether you're joining or you're in right now. And you're concerned about stupid little things like, oh, I can't hem up my airmen because like, what are they going to think?

And I'm supposed to be nice or whatever else like this. It's like that people are actively getting blown up overseas right now. We're losing aircraft. Things are happening. Like, I think we're up to 13 people killed in this non-war war thing that's going on right now.

So, it's time to stop worrying about people's feelings and pronouns and labels and all that other crap.

And get back to, you know, we have a job to do.

“And that's what, you know, we're going to take care of our people, but the job is the job.”

And it's a killing people blown stuff up and putting ourselves in harm's way. Yeah, I mean, nobody wants anybody to get at least US service members or allied troops or whatever to get injured or killed or anything. I mean, each person that's lost is tragic. But, or however, or however, like, I know you're not supposed to say, but or however in the statement like that because it makes a sounds like you're all counteracted. But if you were to look at us going to actual war and putting against a true near peer or great power.

Like, we're going to lose a lot more. A lot more. And which is why we avoided it for so long. And we try other things like sanctions and economic stuff and diplomacy that, you know, that goes into that whole dime thing. Yeah.

I don't know if I need to explain what dime knows to everybody has, you know, it's not even just Google it anymore. Ask your favorite AI what dime means in a geopolitical context. Yeah. But for those of you that want to know that no one will look it up. It's the IME diplomatic information on military and economic.

There's a, like, the four categories that you would do to. Change or yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's, it's crazy out there right now.

And it's one of those things to where it's like, it might be counterintuitive how to save more lives.

Uh, when you first like start getting into like small unit tactics and all the other stuff.

If you are experiencing a near ambush. The, the, the idea that you are going to just run into the ambush like a salt through it is not necessarily intuitive. If you're being ambushed. Um, but it is that kind of thing. Like the way to save your team is to assault through the ambush to turn and assault through the ambush.

And so that mentality, that mentality that we need to be a little more offensive sometimes or like you're going to have to put yourself. Deep in the thick of it to to actually save lives the lives of those around you and to get through this as unscathed as possible. And to achieve your objectives. Uh, to me, that's like a big example of like, you know, when it gets real enough, we need people across the board. Not just the special operations guys or the SW guys or whatever, but everybody to have that mentality.

This is what it's going to take to win. I think a great example of that. And I don't know if we need to bring it up and watch it or not is saving private Ryan.

“So if you have a scene saving private Ryan folks like you need to you're missing out.”

It's probably the greatest opening scene of a war war two conflict or just military movie in general. I still, real quick, I still think the Black Hawk down is probably the greatest movie military movie ever made. Yes, like by far. It's just and I don't mean modern military or modern war like it is the greatest military movie ever made. That's it.

It's in my opinion. Come on, let's grow. Tell us what's but you're the Black Hawk down. Yeah. Now going back to saving private Ryan.

Tom Haines met Damon that kind of stuff. So when they come across that radar site that has a machine gun nest. And everybody is going, hey, we can just skirt around it and, you know, this isn't our mission. Which is true. It's not their mission.

Their mission is to go save private Ryan. Find them and get them out of there. And Tom Haines to be in the captain is like, dude, we can't just leave this here for the next. The tune or next set of troops to come across and just get in mode now.

We see a problem.

We need to fix the problem.

Yeah, it's not our mission. But dude, it could smoke somebody else. And yes, they took care of it. They took casualty. They lost their medic.

“Jivani Robisi, Jivano, Jivano, Jivano, or Robisi.”

Whatever. Who are the scientists? Dude is. Great actor. Kind of underrated.

Yeah. But you know, that's kind of what it is. It's now our problem. We identified it. We got to take care of it.

Yeah. And I think it's just for too long. So the one of the problems with Jivano is after a while. It just became a small group of the Air Force that was dealing with the problem. And the rest of the Air Force got really soft and mistakes were made.

And then the pendulum swung. We got to bring it back y'all. And this isn't everybody, right?

And the problem is we need to bring it back earlier to the airman.

And I know I'm talking about things that I didn't actively involved in. And I care about a lot. And I preach about this all the time. But like when I'm talking to like E5s and E6s in the Air Force right now that of deployed and actually done the job like they're there, they understand it.

The problem is we need the E. Nothing's to the E4s to have that same mentality as soon as possible in their career. So that when they do get into these situations, it's not such a shock. They understand what it is that they're supposed to be doing. And they can provide value to the mission without, you know,

having 10 years of experience in the Air Force first. Yeah. And that's kind of the problem that, you know, you heard people talking about and you got to connect people.

You got to connect the airman to the mission, right?

Because they felt, um, I don't know about lost as the old word for it. But kind of like, what am I doing this for? Like why? Yeah.

“And that's why I think the new thing that, you know,”

BMT 2.0, BMT 3.0, um, the, I know that you said the name before, not pace or well, pace or forge is also part of it. But what's the aircraft forge? Uh, the wealth.

So, pace or forge is the thing that what we're calling the F-16 and all the other stuff on the main side is going to be the domestic air training, air base training range. Uh, so these are all going to be air training range. Air base training ranges is a general day with some things. Uh, so we're going to have the, uh, the forward, air base training range or whatever we're going to call it out of pace or forge with the dirt and all that other stuff. Main side is going to be more like a domestic, like a, a simulation of, of a home station concrete, uh, runway type thing.

Um, that, that, that they can train on. Okay. So it doesn't have like a, of whatever forge. Name now, text will text will does. Text will has like the brazer forge thing.

And that, that should be, uh, you know, and these things take a lot of iterations and a lot of time to get to the, in, you know, quote unquote, end result. And so that's on the list of priorities at some point to get after that. Okay. So again, all that to not just better train airmen and get them more lined with. We are an armed force, not a corporation, not a private business.

We are an armed force, profession of arms. And to then, instead of. Now having insios and airmen that I need to try and help. I need to connect the dots for them on why they're doing what they're doing to support the mission is now. Embedded and baked in to them from day one when they, or day zero, whatever they enter the air force to all the way through.

That should hopefully carry them all the way through their career. Whether it's four years, six years, ten, twenty, twenty, five, whatever.

“You have to keep doing it over and over again, right?”

People don't stay trained. You don't stay motivated. You have to have, you know, when you go to EP or PME, like they, they're all, you're going to be re-blued and attach yourself to the air force again. They don't.

But like that's the idea behind it. You know, people come back and whatever. But also I think in, in like basic trainings and all the other things. I think one of the things that we do right in our community is it's such a high investment. To get in.

Whether they understand what they're going to get into or not and they don't, right? And whether they're connected to the actual mission or not. It doesn't matter because the investment that they put into just getting there is so high. That they, that they, that it has to mean something to them. So we need to require a higher level of investment from these trainees to become airmen.

Like the, the BMT is essentially the air force selection course, right? And it's, it's not really, but like you have to read, if we require a greater deal of investment from the trainees, then graduating means something more. And whether they fully understand what the mission is or any other stuff.

But as I started attaching that stuff, they attach that to the investment. We talk about how it's so hard on our side to talk about the pipeline with everybody and things that we need to change because they're so emotionally invested in it. Because I had this huge emotional event that they went through. That, you know, created the man that I am today.

It's the foundation that all this is built upon. We don't have that foundation in the air force by and large. Most people have the same story like I didn't understand what my job, how it mattered

until I deployed for the first time, right?

Or I saw planes coming back without munitions on them and I was like, oh crap.

“Like we're actually dropping bombs on people when my job matters, right?”

Like getting fuel in this plane matters. We want to get that a little bit earlier. So the higher the investment is to get in the front door. The easier it's going to be throughout the time to, to build on that foundation of investment and to attach them to that mission and to get that intrinsic motivation to

squeeze out of them to get after the mission. Yeah, the, I remember during ALS, airman leadership school. This was 2004 at Fairford in the UK, shout out, Fairford. Where, you know, and you go to ALS, not with your own people. Like sometimes you may have another controller or SRD or PJ or whatever in there.

But usually, there's not, there's not very many of us. So there's usually you're the only one. Yeah. And we don't understand all of our guys at the same time. Yeah.

No, because that can get bad. If you're there with security forces, maintain our services, finance, every, you know, buy all these ammo, all these different AFSCs or Air Force trust, it's all these different jobs. And they are, you know, you got to give briefs and you got to do talks and that kind of stuff.

And I remember, one person was a maintainer and he did his speech or presentation on

how he supports the mission and he had never met somebody like somebody like me who's actually

on the ground utilizing the jets that he, so he actually took it. He goes, so I, and he started off with going, scramble scramble scramble scramble. You know, and nobody knows what that means. Did the attention step, right? Yeah.

Yeah, exactly.

“And then he goes through it and he goes, that's what we hear.”

And then we start running to the jets to them prep them. They may provide whatever maintenance to them. They make sure that they're loaded with munitions, get them properly fueled, make sure the pilots are good to go, get them launched. Then he just walks it through and goes, okay.

So air traffic controllers, they make sure that their runway is free and able to get them off off the ground. It's quick as possible. P.O.L. filled them, fueled them rather. You know, then you get command and control that's vectoring them to the troops in contact.

Then you got the pilot itself who is dropping the bombs that munitions loaded. And then also refueling with the tankers, so you got the aircrew there. And he just walked it all the way through until they got to me and effects on the ground. And he goes, and that is what I do. Because I make that happen.

Everybody's just like, oh, it can do. That's also, so he got it, he understood it. Yeah. And I think we've got to get to the point where we need more. More airman soldiers, Marines.

I doubt the Marines have an issue with it. But airman soldiers, guardians and stuff like that. Understand that. Yeah. Well, the investment upfront to become marine is different.

You know, so it's easier to to open up that. The, whatever it is, to to to to place that to sign up or whatever to. To get that in there. If the investment's higher, you know, you're going to be more open to it with that. The higher level of investment.

Whatever that that Ryan Nolan movie was where they put ideas and people's minds. Which one? Ah. I didn't hear what you said. Who's the actor?

No. The director is Ryan Nolan. We'd lead in our decaprio. Oh, exception. Inception.

Yeah. How reallyception these guys?

But like, you got to get that investment first to open those doors.

Yeah. Otherwise, you're not, you're not going to put that in anybody's brain. Yeah. It's a great movie, by the way. Hmm.

But yeah. Yeah. Anyway. That's how he talked about movies. This, that is a great movie.

My wife hated it. We walked out of there and I was like, oh, man. She's like set, but like the thing didn't fall at the end. So you don't know if he's still in a dream or not, which was brilliant. By the way.

Yeah. And she's like, so was it a dream or not? And this is like, we don't know.

“That's, that's why that's why we're going to be thinking about it forever.”

She's like, that's stupid. Like, okay. Okay.

I can't watch interstellar.

It's too hard to watch.

“Like not, not like the technical aspects, but him and his like daughter.”

Hmm. No. So that's the scene. I was, I was wondering, is my son yesterday, actually. Um, because we saw a meme of...

(laughs) (laughs) I'm economy. (laughs) But where he's, where he's watching the screen, you know, it comes off a gargantuan

and he's lost, you know, 28 years or whatever it is of his life.

And getting all the videos to buy and see it as son and daughter grow up and everything.

And, and the meme is, it's his son coming up and going, hey, yeah. I met a girl. I think she's the one. That kind of stuff. And then the next one he's like, yeah.

So, and so when I broke up, that kind of stuff. Didn't the next, what is, all right. Pops, it turns out I'm gay and... (laughs) Go ahead.

So I had to explain to my son. He's like, 'cause it's got that interstellar music going on on the background of my son. This is really intense.

I was like, yeah, but this scene and interstellar that actual scene is intense.

It's, um, the whole movie. Yeah, it's very intense, movie. I have a hard time with that stuff, kids, and... I don't know, that'd be hard. It's one of the reasons why I'd like to go see projects Hail Mary.

I got it. It's supposed to be so good. So good. Yeah. I mean, the only movie I'm looking forward to is the Chapman movie.

And if they don't invite us out there for that, I'm going to be a little upset. I'm going to apply. I'm not saying that we're the official official podcast, the United States Air Force.

“We're super important, and that's why you shouldn't buy this.”

But I will say that in order to... It's not that I believe that, right? Like, I don't think that we're actually important. But it would be nice. It would be nice, guys.

I'll say really nice things, I promise. Or unless the movie sucks, actually. Then I will not say nice things. If, uh, yeah. I'm, I'm hoping it's good.

I'm just got in a half away, and she's a great actor. So. Yeah. And you and I both know one of the people that was pulled in to talk to... And halfway to give perspective on her character.

Because her character is going to be a kind of a conglomeration. Yeah. I'm not going to say it to us, but not on that.

“I mean, I think they, you know, for for all the people that you could pull in from the Air Force for,”

and halfway to talk to. Obviously, like I know more than one person that was involved in, like the back side. Make sure that Chapman got the middle of honor and all that other stuff. But, you know, you can't talk to everybody in the person that they called in was... She's legit.

Yeah. Sweet. I'm looking forward to it. Um, but anyway, everybody. Appreciate you guys joining.
