Troy Johnson pulled up to check the temperature after Aaron’s comments about ATG. Aaron was around so the guys were able to get into a bunch of things. Why would we not open an episode out primary about fitness with recollections of “big back” activities? Is there any feeling better than getting plans cancelled on you? Time to get back on that couch and chill. Speaking of “chilling,” we have to tip our hats to ‘Stranger Things.’ A 10-year run as a culturally iconic show on a streaming platform is not the easiest thing to do. The still could done our boy Caleb a little better. How much value should college have when it comes to Sailor of the Year boards? Are there any unwritten customs in the Navy that grinds your gears? Should Chiefs recite the ‘Chief’s Creed’ the same way we recite the ‘Sailor’s Creed?’ Should Sailors say the creed every day at quarters? The CNO recently held an All Hands Call and spoke about adding logic to leadership; the guys react. Are Meta Glasses authorized for wear in military uniforms? Should hardship rooms be available for Sailors who are dealing with lengthy domestic disputes? Is it time for AI to take over advancement or promotion boards? The guys finally get to these new PFA changes. Fortunately, Troy is here to make sure we don’t stray too far from policy. Can’t be football season without a little football talk. These and more topics are covered in this episode.
