Everyone loves to say they want a “badass” job—until they realize Air Force EOD actually plays with live explosives. Peaches sits down with three bomb techs who spill the truth about blowing stuff up for a living. From top-secret clearances to the sadistic “Grooster” workout, these dudes talk smoke sessions, failure, and why being called “Eagle” isn’t a compliment. No Hollywood hero shots here—just sweat, stress, and zero room for mistakes. If you think you’re built different, listen up. This episode will check your ego harder than an instructor at NAV School.
