  • It’s ok but some of their guests are bigger concern

    Listening to their recent episode with this, Steve guy seemed like a good discussion to start. Until you go find the guy on social media and see him swearing at everybody all over social media platforms. Ironic that he talks about Maybe he should’ve been a guest on that HBO show. I think it makes the show look bad when you have somebody like that on regardless of their profession or expertise. You can have opinions, but he is way over the top.

  • Informative and easy listening

    This podcast is informative for an extremely wide audience. The hosts are “dad-joke funny” (in the best possible way) and do a great job of researching and distilling topics in various industry topics. The hosts seem to do a great job of disarming interviewees as well, as they get some great perspective from senior aerospace executives. This show is simply fun and it is underpinned by phenomenal journalism. Well worth listening to if you’re at all interested in business/aviation/travel.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Breeze's Lukas Johnson Sounds Off
Q: What is Breeze's notable competitive moat or differentiator in the market?
Lukas argues Breeze operates as a challenger brand with lower variable costs and a focused product suite, emphasizing market segmentation, a strong regional network, and a loyalty program designed to create real utility in smaller markets where bigger carriers have limited presence, which together help sustain premium pricing and guest satisfaction.
Where in the World is Steve Giordano
Q: What are your views on the current administration's focus on merit-based hiring for pilots?
I think their focus raises important questions about seniority while aiming for diversity but merit remains key.
Where in the World is Steve Giordano
Q: How do you manage rest during long flights?
Management of rest varies by trip and involves healthy diets and hydration to counteract fatigue.
Where in the World is Steve Giordano
Q: Do you see Nomadic's business as sort of a leading or trailing indicator of the industry's health?
It can be a leading indicator as we ride the currents of the industry health reflected in our work.
Southwest’s Big Changes are Done, Now What?
Q: You consider check bag fees to be the same type of thing, or is that really just a money grab effectively?
The overwhelming majority of the items that we've done as part of this transformation fit into that category where you get the Venn diagram that overlaps where it's both leaning into the customer and also generating a financial result.
