Welcome back to the Ones Ready Podcast—where we take the dumpster fire that is the Pentagon’s latest news and roast it to perfection. Here’s your daily dose of WTF is happening in the military:

💥 Merging Commands for Fun and Profit – Europe and Africa, NORTHCOM and SOUTHCOM... Because consolidating everything under one roof always works so well, right?

💥 Cheap Missiles FTW – Air Force busting out $40k laser-guided rockets to shoot down drones instead of million-dollar missiles. That’s what we call “ballin’ on a budget.”

💥 Fitness Standards Review – Trying to balance inclusivity and not dropping standards... Because let’s face it, the enemy doesn’t care about your “feelings.”

💥 Traffic Nightmares – You thought waiting in line at the DMV was bad? Try getting on base during rush hour. Defenders, we love you, but open the damn second lane already.

💥 The Space Force Is Broke – 3% of the defense budget for the thing we’re losing to China? Makes sense... if your goal is to get steamrolled.

💥 The Continuing Resolution Trainwreck – AKA, how to cut the legs off the B-21, KC-46, and Space Force while hoping nobody notices.
