This was supposed to be a roast. A snarky hate-watch of the new Netflix Thunderbirds documentary. Instead? Aaron and Trent got ambushed by feelings. What started as a casual poo-poo sesh turned into a confession of admiration, aviation tears, and redemption arcs that hit harder than a Friday safety brief.

We went from “tight flight suits and PR stunts” to "Astro gave up being an astronaut to save the team” — and dammit, we were in. From Primo’s struggle bus to elite team dynamics, we broke down what it actually takes to perform under pressure when the whole Air Force is watching.

Also in this ep: Marines choke-slamming passengers mid-flight, Memorial Day cringe patrols, fake Viking worship, Jesus-themed t-shirts, PTSD reality checks, and why “No More Drama, Ride a Llama” is now legally trademarked by Ones Ready. This one’s unhinged, honest, and somehow… wholesome?

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• Thunderbirds documentary unexpectedly slaps — especially Primo’s redemption arc and behind-the-scenes team friction.
• Public Affairs: THIS is how you tell authentic military stories. No more highlight reels. Show the struggle.
• If you're over 35 and yelling “'Til Valhalla” in a Spartan helmet… stop.
• The Marine who slammed a dude mid-flight deserves a medal and a bourbon.
• Memorial Day isn’t about rage-posting. Tell a damn story about your bros instead.
• PTSD doesn’t need to be your personality. Help exists. So does plant-based llama therapy.
• Jesus in a Ghillie suit? Coming soon to a merch drop near you.
