Grant checks in live from Newport, Rhode Island, Jeff reports from the greater Montgomery, Alabama area, and Tres joins by phone from the road.The boys open with the most unhinged Trash Battalion staff brief yet — eagles vs. beagles leadership wisdom, a brand-new Boston adjutant pitching a lobster bake to the Cajun Sergeant Major, a Strait of Hormuz update delivered from the road, and a Marine who fell into a dumpster (he's okay, he's accounted for).Then it's into the topics: Grant breaks down why so many people in commercial gyms are running the "Lost Boys workout" — wandering machine to machine with no plan — and why you need a purpose every time you walk in. Grant and Jeff compare base gym setups (including actual "no deadlifting" signs), swap war stories from their first weeks back at military school, and debate whether AI reading your homework to you counts as studying. Plus: dad talk on bubble machine economics, movies edited by Grant's mom, taking a 23-month-old to Fenway on $10 military tickets, and a Chow Radar review of the most disappointing famous lobster roll in Newport.Timestamps:00:00 - Intro05:25 - Staff Brief30:21 - Having A Purpose In The Gym37:02 - Air Force Gym43:43 - O5 Workout Culture46:53 - National Guard Marines?52:14 - War Homework & AI01:01:50 - Dad Talk & Bubbles01:06:05 - Sox Game01:14:52 - Lobster Rolls & Chow Radar
