About this listen

Everybody remembers their first day at MEPS. You walk in thinking it’s just paperwork and a physical — and walk out wondering if you accidentally joined a reality show called “Hurry Up and Wait.”

In this episode, we’re breaking down what that first day at MEPS is really like — the nerves, the medical checks, the random questions that make you second-guess your entire childhood, and the moment you realize this is actually happening.

We’ll share stories from recruits, recruiters, and vets who all survived the process — from the funny to the frustrating — and talk about what MEPS teaches you before you ever put on a uniform.

If you’ve ever gone through MEPS, are heading there soon, or just want to laugh at how ridiculous the process can be, this one’s for you.

Welcome to the first test of military patience — MEPS style.
