Holiday Chaos, Airline Wisdom and Drunk Raccoon (01:05:50)
Talk to us! Leave us a message, or ask a question? Holiday chaos, stadium misadventures, and a house full of colds set the stage for a fast, funny flight through the realities of airline life. We break down the surprisingly tender moments—like a frequent flyer’s familiar smile after 25 years—and the gritty parts travelers don’t see: pets that can’t sit in bulkhead, medical scares triggered by “just in case” motion meds, and the sprinting pajama crowd that misses connections because peak seaso...
Please Keep Your Rats, Your Pepper Spray, And Your Politics Off The Plane (00:51:13)
Talk to us! Leave us a message, or ask a question? The week snowed sideways, the runway sparked, and comfort food did the heavy lifting. We kick off with a rejected takeoff that ends safely but rattles the nerves, then dive into a whiteout commute so bad it makes four lanes feel like one. Between a smoky, wobbling rental and holiday lists that never end, we find sanity in big-batch wedding soup and bread that takes days to coax into life—small rituals that steady the hands when everything els...
Please Keep Your Shoes On, Your Pajamas Home, And Your Wine Out Of My Shoe; (01:04:26)
Talk to us! Leave us a message, or ask a question? A full glass of Chardonnay met a barefoot passenger’s shoe, and somehow that still didn’t crack the Top 3 of aviation crimes this week. We kick things off with holiday cabin chaos: overhead bins stuffed like a Patagonia outlet, and the one rule that keeps civilization alive at 35,000 feet—wear shoes, lose the pajamas, and ask like a human. Then we zoom way out. Taylor Swift’s behind-the-scenes streaming drop proves modern tours run like a glo...

There’s the first-class vaper who learns the hard way that status doesn’t outrank rules, and the quiet logistics behind weight and balance that keep a light load safe when passengers want to play musical chai...
Kindness Is Your Upgrade: Lessons From The Sky (00:57:59)

Practical rules, human moments, and holiday survival—delivered with a wink. • holiday travel stress and simple survival rules • costs of youth activities and Vegas sticker shock • be nice or get booted mindset for flyers • first...

Talk to us! Leave us a message, or ask a question? Ever wonder which flights make crews groan and which ones make the day fly by? We open the cabin door on a week packed with real aviation life: a shredded run-flat, a surprisingly meaningful Amazon Flex route delivering food-bank packages, and a chance meeting with a flight attendant who started at Pan Am in 1968 and went on to log 47 years in the sky. Her stories bridge the 707 era to modern long-hauls—and a three-week cat-sitting adventure ...
You Can’t Outdrink Altitude And Other Lessons From The Skies (01:04:45)
Talk to us! Leave us a message, or ask a question? Ever watched a simple trip turn into a sitcom?

It’s a snapshot of modern air travel: crews and passengers riding the same turbulence, each with a different job to do once the door closes. From there we aim higher. We unpack a striking AI documentary that ...

From there, we dive into a nuclear-crisis thriller that had us sweating for all the right reasons. We connect the on-screen chain-of-command to real-world procedures—codes, silos, and why those edge-of-seat final calls ...
From Cabo To Palm Springs - What Happens When Travel Dreams Meet Real-World Risk (00:50:59)

From there, we crack open the most expensive mistake a crew member can make: an accidental slide deployment....
He Did Downward Dog In The Aisle, Sir (00:52:59)
Talk to us! Leave us a message, or ask a question? Ever watched a grown man do yoga and push-ups in an airplane aisle while he blocks the cabin? We did—and that’s just one scene from a wild run that starts with an international first and ends with a sharp talk about money, manners, and respect at 35,000 feet. We kick off with Shawn’s first real international trip to Athens, where the 787’s picture-window jump seats deliver jaw-dropping views, the van ride eats ninety minutes of life, and a p...

Talk to us! Leave us a message, or ask a question? Start with a septic pump failure, add non-rev roulette, then shake in a first-class passenger drying her hands with a toilet seat cover. That’s our week. From the ground-up mess to the sky-high absurdity, we pull back the curtain on why people lose their cool on airplanes—and how to keep yours when elbows sprawl, feet roam, and someone mistakes the cabin for a yoga studio. We also lean into the season. Halloween in our neighborhood is a full...

We open with the grit behind flight attendant recurrent training—peer pressure, tiny procedural details, and the CPR updates that never seem to stop—then shift gears into the strange-but-true world of October: presidents born this month, why black and orange became the season’s colors, and how Irish turnips morphed into American pumpkins. Along the way, we call out the...
Mermaids, Mountain Dew, and the Case of the Toilet iPhone (00:56:22)
Talk to us! Leave us a message, or ask a question? Ever watched a cabin flip from reunion chaos to pin‑drop quiet at 30,000 feet? We have—and we’re unpacking how it happens, why sit time wears crews down more than flying, and what old‑school service looked like when carving roasts in the aisle was just Tuesday. This week we trade stories from the jumpseat: a 6 a.m. group that wouldn’t lower their volume until they did, the passenger who slept with eyes wide open, and the unforgettable “toilet...
