Episode Summary: Today, the U.S. Air Force is at a key inflection point when it comes to jet propulsion. Most of the service's aircraft are flying with engines designed during the Cold War. Newer types are now multiple decades old. This is why the Air Force has invested in multiple programs to pursue new engines. Heather Penney and Brig. Gen. Houston Cantwell, USAF (Ret.) talk with Lt. Gen. Steve Shepro, USAF (Ret.) of Pratt and Whitney to learn more about where military aircraft propulsion stands today and where it's headed in the future.

Send us a textPeaches and Trent dive straight into the chaos—no disclaimers, no corporate tone, just two dudes calling out the absurdity of modern military leadership. From COVID reinstatement madness to commanders who rubber-stamp illegal orders and still get promoted, Peaches unloads on the Air Force's “do as we say, not as we do” culture. Trent breaks down why officers obsess over year-groups like it's astrology, why reinstated members get screwed, and how the Pentagon avoids accountability like it's a PT test. The boys torch everything from Secret Service incompetence to Navy misery to teenagers who show up to job interviews looking like they escaped Hot Topic at 2 a.m. It's raw, it's ruthless, it's Ones Ready at full power.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 – Peaches jumps Trent in the team room 01:40 – Pre-workout, caffeine addiction & Aaron slander (required) 02:20 – OTS updates: Vegas locked, Europe maybe 05:45 – “It's NOT a smoke session.

On Thursday, President Trump called for the execution of a number of members of the opposition party. This came after Democratic lawmakers released a powerful video informing military and intelligence officials that they are not obliged to carry out illegal orders from Trump. Then he raged in several ranting tweets that this was “sedition,” punishable by “death.” Democratic leaders forcefully hit back. And White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt spun madly in response, struggling to deny that Trump had given illegal orders. In other words, it all backfired badly on Trump by forcing a public conversation about whether Trump actually is giving illegal orders. We talked to Representative Chrissy Houlahan, an Air Force veteran herself, who is one of the Democrats in the video. She explains why Democrats needed to do this, why service-members need to know they have support from lawmakers like her, what they're hearing from inside the military, and why it's so important to have a big public debate over Trump's violent lawlessness.

From Air Force flight suit to luxury dry cleaning, laundromats, and apartment complexes… In this episode of Blue Collar Millionaire, Ricardo Torres shares how he went beyond the uniform and built true entrepreneurial freedom — not just financially, but with his time for his wife and daughters. This is Part 1 of a 3-part series with Ricardo, where we break down his mindset shift from "I can't do that" to "How can I do that?" and how that one shift became the foundation for everything he's built since. In this episode, you'll hear: How Ricardo pivoted from chasing rank in the Air Force to chasing freedom The 30-minute phone call that changed his entire financial trajectory How he bought his first 14-unit apartment complex using a TSP loan and Tesla gains Lessons learned from a rough first deal (and why the market saved him) Why Class B assets beat "cheap but painful" properties in the long run The story of buying a laundromat in a flight suit by simply knocking on the door What he learned from the worst year of his life as a business owner How he acquired one of the top luxury dry cleaners in the U.S. (Tiffany Couture Cleaners) using SBA financing Why charging premium prices is non-negotiable when you serve a luxury market How Blue Collar Millionaire and BoardRoom Elite helped him level up through questions, DMs, and real community The difference between consuming content and taking action — and why curiosity plus action is the real cheat code If you've ever thought: "I don't have the money to do that." "I don't know anyone doing deals like that." "I'm too busy with my job to start…" …this episode will punch holes in all of that and give you a roadmap from where you are to where you want to go.

The new film A House of Dynamite offers a terrifying portrayal of how quickly a nuclear war might erupt and how the United States might respond. Looking beyond this Hollywood depiction, how real has the threat of nuclear war actually become, from adversaries' expanding arsenals to warning-system vulnerabilities? What would a modern nuclear exchange actually look like? Are America's defenses adequate for the world we live in today? And how can the U.S. deter adversaries without stumbling into escalation or miscalculation?In this episode, Jacob Heilbrunn speaks with retired U.S. Air Force General Glen VanHerck. He most recently served as Commander of the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) from 2020 to 2024. Gen. VanHerck retired from the Air Force in 2024 after more than 36 years of service.Music by Aleksey Chistilin from Pixabay

Michelle "Mace" Curran is a former Thunderbird fighter pilot, author, keynote speaker, and entrepreneur dedicated to empowering others to rise above self-doubt and tackle imposter syndrome head-on. Having flown elite missions and taken on leadership roles within some of the Air Force's most demanding teams, Michelle now leverages her experience to inspire audiences across the country. Through her transition from high-performing military aviator to entrepreneur and thought leader, she's passionate about helping others find their own “because,” lead with trust, and push through fear to leave a real legacy. Michelle's story is one of courage, resilience, and authentic leadership—on and off the runway. Takeaways: Imposter syndrome is universal—even experienced leaders deal with it, and the first step to overcoming it is simply acknowledging it and talking about it openly. Building a high-performing team starts with trust and psychological safety, not just traditional authority—leaders who model vulnerability and accountability foster the strongest cultures. Facing your fears and making progress doesn't require massive leaps; start taking “small, bold choices” to move toward your goals and let your confidence grow one step at a time.  Sound Bites: "The number of experienced leaders who come up after my keynotes and say, 'I feel imposter syndrome every single day'—it's more common than you think." "Trust isn't just a military thing; it's the foundation of every high-performing team. When errors aren't hidden, they're learned from immediately." "Naming your inner critic gives you power over it—it's about recognizing when that voice shows up…and choosing not to listen."

From a U. S. Army Combat Veteran Mindset to Tractor Supply Leadership: Building Teams, Safety, and Continuous Improvement This week, Marcus and Melanie welcome Rodney Bailey, a devoted husband, father, and decorated U.S. Army combat veteran whose leadership has been shaped by four combat tours and distinguished honors, including the Purple Heart and Meritorious Service Medal.

This was the private club of military officers that spent decades pulling strings behind the scenes and building the foundation for South Korea's authoritarian era.

They were groomed for it inside this secret alumni club of Air Force cadets who treated the nation like their future inheritance.We get into the shadow world of coups, purges, favoritism, region based politics and the strange afterlife of Hanahoe's legacy in Korean society.

Show SummaryNatalie Elliott Handy, a caregiver for her husband and mother and co-host of the Confessions of a Reluctant Caregiver Podcast. During our conversation, we share the commitment that she and her sister have to highlighting and supporting military connected caregivers. Provide FeedbackAs a dedicated member of the audience, we would like to hear from you about the show. Please take a few minutes to share your thoughts about the show in this short feedback survey. By doing so, you will be entered to receive a signed copy of one of our host's three books on military and veteran mental health. About Today's GuestNatalie is someone who genuinely loves people. She has a natural passion for meeting new faces, staying closely connected with family, friends, and colleagues, and, most of all, helping others. Anyone who knows her will readily say, “Natalie doesn't know a stranger.” It's simply who she has always been.Raised in her family's hardware store, Natalie learned early how to engage customers — and how to count change — by talking to everyone who walked through the door. At church, she was the first to volunteer to sing, recite Bible verses in “big church,” and attend every youth activity, especially lock-ins. In school, her teachers often placed her in the front row to help minimize “distractions,” because she was, without a doubt, a social butterfly.Those gifts — her ability to connect, her quick wit, and her desire to support others — naturally led her into leadership roles throughout her career in the mental health field. She married young at 21 and, many years later, again at 39. She often describes her first marriage as a light-hearted “practice run” with someone kind, but not Jason, the partner she shares her life with today.From the outside, Natalie's life looked picture-perfect: a fulfilling job, a loving husband, a close-knit support system, and of course, her beloved dogs. But behind the scenes, she was burning the candle at both ends — working 12-hour days, six days a week, answering every request with, “No problem. Happy to help.”Everything shifted when Jason was diagnosed with cancer in March 2022. In the midst of that crisis, Natalie confronted the truth that she couldn't keep living at that pace. During those darkest moments, she reconnected with her faith and, through that, rediscovered her true self. She learned to acknowledge her imperfections and, more importantly, to love herself fully — flaws and all.Today, Natalie has reordered her life with clear priorities: God, herself, Jason, family and friends, and then work. She says “no” far more often, seeks silver linings in difficult moments, and is grateful for the journey that led her to live God's plan instead of her own. She embraces the mantra of being “perfectly imperfect.”Her mission is simple: to share stories and experiences that inspire, uplift, and — whenever possible — spark a little laughter. She strives to encourage others to be true to themselves while supporting the people they love. And along the way, she fully intends to keep making new friends.Links Mentioned During the EpisodeConfessions of a Reluctant Caregiver Website2024 Heroes Caring for Heroes series2023 Heroes Caring for Heroes seriesPsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's PsychArmor Resource of the Week is the PsychArmor course course Understanding the VA for Caregivers.

In this episode, you'll step inside a world few of us ever see—one where every decision carries weight, pressure is constant, and clarity is non-negotiable. Last week, I spent a day learning from a retired Air Force fighter pilot, and what struck me wasn't the complexity of the cockpit or the intensity of the mission. It was how much their world mirrors ours. Because while we may not be flying at 500 knots, many practice owners feel like they're in a dogfight every single day—reacting, scrambling, and hoping things don't fall apart. This episode is about what happens when you stop reacting and start leading with intention. You'll hear how fighter pilots plan, communicate, execute, and learn with a level of focus that turns chaos into clarity. And more importantly, you'll discover how those same tools can bring direction, confidence, and momentum back into your practice.

Achieving Reusability and Navigating Launch Failures. Eric Berger reports that in December 2015, SpaceX demonstrated reusability with the successful launch and vertical landing of the Falcon 9 Full Thrust at Landing Zone 1. The launch utilized densified propellant, requiring a tight launch window. The risky landing involved the Air Force approving a rocket with fuel returning over expensive real estate, despite concerns from groups like the National Reconnaissance Office. However, three weeks before his Mars speech, the Amos 6 satellite was violently destroyed during fueling in September 2016. Elon Musk favored an unfounded "sniper theory" to explain this failure.

What would you do if you woke up and the world was dark? Kijuan Amey, an Air Force in‑flight refueling specialist with a promising path to the cockpit, opened his eyes after a crash to find he'd lost his sight. The story that follows isn't about platitudes—it's about rebuilding a life through faith, gratitude, and the unglamorous work of learning every step again.We dig into the pivotal shift from “why me” to “why not me,” and how that mindset turned blame into agency. Kijuan walks us through the hard basics—orientation with a white cane, mastering daily tasks, and honoring the process without skipping steps. Along the way, he shares how reflection at the gym, adaptive sports, and expert coaching revived confidence and expanded what seemed possible. The refrain “give it time” becomes a practical strategy: patience paired with action compounds into progress.Leaders will recognize themselves in the aviation checklist analogy: miss one step and outcomes can be catastrophic. We explore the power of reframing “have to” as “get to,” the role of community in sustaining momentum, and why vision is mental even when sight is gone. Expect insights on resilience, habits, mindset, and purpose that apply whether you're navigating trauma, leading a team, or training for your next milestone.If the idea of starting small and staying consistent resonates, this conversation will meet you where you are and challenge you to take the next step.

Send us a textPeaches and Trent are back in the team room—no script, no filter, and somehow their best Operator Training Summit yet. Coming straight off the Nashville event, they pull the curtain back on what really happens when 40 candidates, a handful of coaches, and a mountain of gear collide in one turf-covered facility.Peaches dishes on how sleeping indoors, training for 11 hours in the pool, and running the dreaded 10-ups turned chaos into confidence. Trent talks logistics, lessons learned, and how every OTS somehow tops the last. Together they lay out what's coming next—Vegas, Europe, and maybe a few surprises along the way.Then the gloves come off as they shift from pool decks to policy: leadership gone soft, PME that teaches nothing, and a culture allergic to accountability.
