Strap in, nerds — it's time for another brutally honest, occasionally aggressive PSA from your favorite cynical pipehitters. Aaron, Jared, and Trent are done pretending like your DMs are cute. This episode is a tactical nuke on all the dumbass questions that keep clogging our inboxes like an MRE-induced constipation crisis.

Are you 25 and feeling “too old”? Shut up. Asking if you should delay shipping because your runtime is 0.3 seconds off? Delay your dreams forever, why not. Unsure whether you should be a PJ, CCT, SR, or join the FBI to fight aliens with the CIA? We’re not your career counselor, Karen.

This is the one-stop, soul-crushing episode you’ll be angrily timestamping and rage-sharing with your overthinking wannabe operator buddies. We cover:

  • Magical age limits and why the pipeline doesn’t care about your birth year
  • Why your “peak interest” is spelling itself out of selection
  • What training volume actually means (spoiler: you’re not doing enough)
  • The truth about SpecWar lifestyle, hot teammates, and why Air Force has the hottest dudes AND best hotels

Oh, and yes — we talk about “Hot Kyle.” Again.

🔥 Key Takeaways:

  • If you’re old enough to ask if you're too old, you’re old enough to shut up and ruck.
  • Passing the IFT once isn’t special. Passing it exhausted, multiple times a day, is the baseline.
  • No one cares about your backstory. Pick a job. Any job. And stop writing novels in our DMs.
  • Treading water is the secret sauce. Who knew?
  • AF SpecWar = world travel, SOF missions, 5-star TDYs, and elite-level eye candy.
  • Delaying shipping “until you’re ready” is code for “I’ll never go.”
  • If your dream job requires a needle and you faint at the sight of blood, maybe skip PJ.
  • Blood of the Covenant > Water of the Womb. Bonus lesson on misquoted proverbs.
