A good podcast with good info, and not too much needless chatter. I Just have to be that person who points out that even though cutting a tracheostomy is overly used in tv , there are cases where the heimlich and other manoeuvres don’t work.

My eyes almost rolled out my head when the very first thing you mention about Jury Duty is how it is problematic. Good lord if you cant enjoy that light-hearted show I’m not sure what might actually like. The concerns didnt even make sense given that that they go out of their way to make Ronald look like a great guy the entire time.
I am thoroughly enjoying listening on my 30 min commute to work and home. Trying to gain as much knowledge as possible.From 6/20/16 beyond your private pilot certificate and later it states there is not a secure connection so it won't play on audible. Please fix so I may continue.
I am preparing for my Private Pilot for recreational flying and find this podcast an absolute must for building on what the book says and solidifying the knowledge making me a better future pilot. These and other fantastic series are also available on Youtube.
This show helps me save time. Instead of watching shows, I can quickly learn about a pilot in less than 10 minutes. They also cover a lot of different streaming platforms. Some that I had never heard of it! I wish they would cover movies too but I love the focus on TV pilots.
