On this episode, Mason Terra rejoins the podcast for the first time since his appearance on episode 204. Mason catches us up on everything that has happened since his episode aired earlier this year. He discusses his performative art exhibit where he trapped himself in a box for 24 hours and took prompts and created drawings like AI. We dive into how we feel about AI and not allowing it to take away our creative ability as humans. Also, Mason goes into detail about his Azores trip and what it meant to him. As well as, mentioning that he was accepted into an art trip program to go to the Azores and network later next year. Then, we talk about what Mason thought of my book and the value of the pillars. Join us in this unique conversation on art, travel, and mental health. The Five Pillars to Create a Meaningful Life Available on Amazon: https://a.co/d/9kXIt9u

“Biodiversity is the key to making you a lazy gardener.” In this episode, Michael Dargie sits down with landscape architect, permaculture expert, and entrepreneur Matthieu Mehuys. From a childhood on a Belgian farm to a home base in the Azores, Matthieu's story is rooted in a lifelong fascination with how tiny seeds become thriving ecosystems. His journey weaves through entrepreneurial experiments with chickens and the stock market, an Amazon rainforest adventure cut short by dengue fever, and ultimately, the creation of a global business teaching people how to garden in harmony with nature . This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world. Matthieu shares how gardening is more than just growing food—it's a form of sovereignty, health, and rebellion against industrialized food systems. He explains why biodiversity makes you a “lazy gardener,” how soil microbiomes mirror the human gut, and why working with nature is always more profitable than fighting against it . The conversation turns practical too: growing radishes and potatoes as first steps, tapping into community gardens, and even indoor tower farms. Matthieu also challenges common misconceptions around GMOs, gluten, and bread, contrasting modern food production with traditional practices that honour the balance of nature . Alongside gardening wisdom, Matthieu opens up about surfing, gratitude practices, and the thrill of seeing clients transform their gardens and their lives. For anyone who's ever dreamed of pulling fresh food from their backyard—or rebelling against the system by growing a potato—this episode is a reminder that small steps can lead to profound change.

We are as near to Heaven by sea as by land.” On this day, 9 September 1583, Sir Humphrey Gilbert's tiny ship, the Squirrel, disappeared in an Atlantic storm, and an audacious Elizabethan life ended in a flash of foam and darkness. I'm historian and author Claire Ridgway, and today we follow Gilbert's extraordinary arc: Devon gentleman and half-brother to Sir Walter Ralegh; soldier praised at Newhaven and feared in Munster for brutal tactics; polemicist for a Northwest Passage and English colonisation; MP who clashed in Parliament; and, finally, patent-holder who sailed to Newfoundland and claimed St John's for Queen Elizabeth I, before disaster struck on the homeward voyage. In this episode: Gilbert's powerful family network (Kat Ashley & the Ralegh connection) Soldier and strategist: praise in France, terror in Ireland Pen and policy: A Discourse of a Discoverie & dreams of an academy The 1583 voyage: The Delight, the Golden Hind, the Swallow, and the fateful Squirrel Claiming St John's—and losing men, charts, and nerve in a wreck The storm off the Azores and Gilbert's haunting last words Legacy: how his vision fed later English ventures in the New World If you enjoy these daily Tudor deep dives, please like, subscribe, and ring the bell so you don't miss the next one. #TudorHistory #OnThisDay #Elizabethan #Exploration #Newfoundland #SirHumphreyGilbert #WalterRaleigh

In this heartfelt episode, I sit down with Laini to reflect on our recent retreat in the Azores. I share my experiences leading 16 incredible midlife women through a transformative journey on this breathtaking island. We discuss how this unique gathering created space for authentic connection, vulnerability, and personal growth as we collectively redefined what health and vitality mean in this season of our lives. Just a few things we discuss in this episode: The power of sisterhood: how women supporting women creates an environment where true transformation can occur. Embracing discomfort: how both international travel and vulnerable conversations pushed us all beyond our comfort zones in the most beautiful ways. Body wisdom over body criticism: how being in our bodies vs thinking about them led to deeper acceptance and appreciation. … and so much more.

In this special episode, Alan Briggs steps away from the usual pace of life—and leadership—and invites us into a slower, deeper rhythm. Recorded on location from the island of Terceira in the Azores, Alan shares reflections from his very first pilgrimage—a spiritual journey with a physical component. What began as a walk through unfamiliar terrain turned into a profound time of rest, reflection, and reconnection with God. If you've ever felt burned out, spiritually dry, or simply curious about how to slow down long enough to hear from God… this one's for you. In this episode, Alan explores: What really is a pilgrimage—and why it matters today The tension between being a tourist and a seeker Unexpected spiritual lessons from Holy Spirit houses and Catholic cathedrals Questions that shaped each day: How have I limited God? How am I different when I rest? How nature, walking, and reflection unlock new clarity and connection This isn't your typical leadership episode—and that's the point. Feeling the nudge to take your own pilgrimage? Whether that looks like a long walk or a short retreat, we hope this conversation helps you slow down, listen deeper, and reorient around what truly matters.

In the records of maritime history, few mysteries endure like that of the ship found adrift in the Atlantic Ocean in 1872, her crew vanished without a trace. The vessel, a 282-ton brigantine, was discovered on December 4, 1872, by the crew of another merchant ship, approximately 400 miles east of the Azores. The ghost ship was in seaworthy condition, her cargo of 1,701 barrels of industrial alcohol largely intact, yet her ten souls were gone, leaving behind a riddle that has baffled investigators, historians, and storytellers for over a century.What caused ten people to simply vanish without a trace? Pirates? Mutiny? Sea Monsters? No theory successfully explains the mystery of this ghost ship.Join Gary and GoldieAnn today as they sail Within the Mist of the Atlantic to discuss the Mary Celeste.Facebook Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/544933724571696Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withinthemistpodcast/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@withinthemistpodcast1977 Hosted on Acast.

Our fourth author in a row is Brian MacConville with his children's book 'Hoopbee and the Hoops' and his experience in the Azores to see a famous Rovers result in Europe. We remember the great Tommy Hamilton and look ahead to a huge night in Tallaght on Thursday.

The lads take stock as Shelbourne and Shamrock Rovers are both tantalisingly close to group stage football after a quite incredible night on Thursday. Dan relays his trip to the Azores, where some locals were more interested in the staff in the chip van than whether the Rovers performance was different gravy to other LOI wins in Europe. The lads discuss that point but there is no debate around the emotional moment of the week. We're recording from JW's apartment for sale, but his last cup of tea in the old place is about as satisfying as the pitch in Drogheda, while he's alarmed at Galway's squad disintegrating in the off-season. Dan discusses the joys of a global transfer story, with the size of Victor Ozhianvuna's fee just one of the discussions arising from a crowded mailbag which includes something even more precious than the sweet taste of a jaffa cake - an actual quote from a referee! All of this and more is brought to you with our friends at Collar & Cuff, Sport Cosanta, Future Ticketing & Rascals Brewing

Kelsey sits down with Shannon to hear all about her family's multigenerational trip to Maui, Hawaii in June 2025. Shannon, her husband, and their two young daughters (ages 3 and 5) met up with grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins for a magical big family vacation. They stayed oceanfront at Honua Kai Resort, which felt more like living in Hawaii than visiting.

Welcome, Manuela Laurenco Da Costa! Manuela DaCosta is a fiction writer and the author of the Hawk Island series. Acores is the Portuguese word for hawk. It is spelled Azores in English. The series, according to Google Books, "...stands in the middle of the Atlantic, small and defiant, like its people. Two Brooks is the most isolated village in Hawk Island, surrounded by high cliffs and flanked at each end by a brook. It is a village of tenacious people, hardened by isolation and punished by nature with crude winters and burning droughts. It is also a place forsaken by God and men that boasts a long history of civil disobedience and defiance of social norms." Born in Terceira, Acores, she immigrated to the United States as a young adult just before the Carnation Revolution of 1974. Manuela graduated from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth (UMass Dartmouth). She lives in New Bedford with her husband and cat. In addition to writing the Hawk Island series, Manuela published her first book, Os Sonhos de Dona Dores, in the 90s. Written in Portuguese prose, it illustrates the conflicts between a young girl and her parents as immigrants in a new country. Hawk Island offers a different approach with intense character building and deeply descriptive landscapes. It tells the story of the dynamic between islanders and strangers on this remote island. Manuela spoke with The Artists Index co-founder, documentarian, and podcast host, Ron Fortier. They discussed her writing, heritage, and life. This episode was recorded at our recording studio at Spectrum Marketing Group at Howland Place in New Bedford.   Manuela DaCosta New Bedford, MA 02744   Email | Website | Facebook | Instagram | Linktree | Other   ALSO AVAILABLE ON: YouTube Please consider donating whatever you can to ensure that our mission continues as we document the legacies of South Coast Artists.

2025 Work & Witness Mission Team Report from the Azores, Portugal

STORY OF AMERICA — Having obtained backing to establish an English colony on the North American Atlantic coastline, Bartholomew Gosnold set sail in a small bark named the Concord in 1602, with thirty-two on board towards Martha's Vineyard and Provincetown. Gosnold (born in Grundisburgh, Suffolk, England) pioneered a direct sailing route due west from the Azores to the New World in what later became New England. He and his crew explored the coastline with the intention of establishing a colony and small fishing outpost in the southern part of Massachusetts on Cuttyhunk Island.

Samantha Kell awakens from a haunting nightmare only to find herself further adrift—emotionally and geographically—as the Invenios arrives in the Azores. While the crew docks to receive their new submersible and pilot, tensions escalate between Tulley and Samantha, pushing her to make a desperate ultimatum: help her recover Dominique and the PX, or be left behind as time runs out. Meanwhile, Oberlin and Tulley embark on a seemingly simple cheese errand… that turns into a full-on stampede. Literally. In the cobblestone streets of Ponta Delgada, a drunken bar brawl, a case of mistaken identity, and a cheese-crazed bull converge in a chaotic comedy of errors, culminating in the explosive arrival of Yuki Yamamoto—our hard-drinking, sharp-punching, and unexpectedly heroic new sub pilot. But as the bar clears and the dust settles, Samantha strikes a deal Tulley can't refuse, and the Invenios is finally cleared to return to the depths of the Atlantic to finish what began on the Veloscora.

Welcome, Lara Lourenco Harrington, AKA Lara Harrington, a re-emerging artist and supporter of the arts in the South Coast. She is the daughter of immigrants from Terceira and Faial, "two of the most beautiful islands in the Azores." Her journey to connect more deeply with her heritage took a significant turn in 2011 when she became involved with the Azorean Whaleboats in New Bedford, Massachusetts. Lara's involvement opened doors that allowed her to immerse herself deeply in the culture, "particularly through participating in international regattas with Pico Island and Faial." Through these experiences, she has built amazing friendships and discovered incredible opportunities to share the Islands' beauty and charm from a local perspective. Her passion for the Açores (Azores in English) continues to grow as she brings the essence of these islands to those around her. "This journey of bridging a creative community between New Bedford and the Azores was inspired by my background in the arts and my commitment to cultural exchange." Lara Harrington received her Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts from the Massachusetts College of Art in 2000. After building and leaving a successful business in fitness, she is excited about her new adventure, Hotel Papel, which includes an art residency program! Lara spoke with The Artists Index's cofounder, documentarian, and podcast host, Ron Fortier, recently. She spoke about her passion, heritage, life, and developing journey as a working musician. This episode was recorded at our recording studio at Spectrum Marketing Group at Howland Place in New Bedford.   Lara Harrington New Bedford, MA 02744 508-965-8860   Email | Website | Facebook | Instagram | Linktree | Other   Please consider donating whatever you can to ensure that our mission continues as we document the legacies of South Coast Artists.

En el episodio de esta semana, Roger Vivé nos cuenta las aventuras de su reciente viaje fotográfico a las Islas Azores.    >   TALLERES DE FOTOGRAFÍA Ya están disponibles las fechas para los Talleres de Fotografía de Paisaje que formarán parte de mi oferta formativa. Si te apetece acompañarme en nuevas aventuras fotográficas, respetando todas las medidas de seguridad, echa un vistazo. Plazas limitadas. Talleres de Fotografía de Paisaje con Rafa Irusta VIAJE FOTOGRÁFICO A LAS ISLAS AZORES En este episodio de Distancia Hiperfocal, Roger Vivé y yo hablamos en detalle sobre su reciente viaje fotográfico a la isla de São Miguel, en el archipiélago de las Azores. Compartimos su experiencia tanto desde el punto de vista logístico como creativo, repasando aspectos clave que pueden ayudarte a planificar tu propio viaje fotográfico a este destino sorprendente. PUNTOS CLAVE TRATADOS EN EL EPISODIO Organización del viaje: Roger viajó en junio con vuelo directo desde Barcelona. São Miguel es una isla verde, volcánica y con buena infraestructura. La elección del alojamiento fue clave: un hotel bien ubicado en el centro de la isla, ideal para tener acceso rápido a varias localizaciones. Equipo fotográfico y transporte: Llevó su Sony A7R5 con tres objetivos (16-35 mm, 24-105 mm y 100-400 mm), además de filtros, dron, portátil y cargadores. Facturó el trípode y parte del equipaje, pero siempre llevó consigo la mochila fotográfica. Recomendamos usar mochilas ligeras y considerar localizadores como AirTags. Aplicaciones utilizadas: Usó PhotoPills para planificar salidas y puestas de sol, y Google Maps para estudiar distancias y puntos clave. También Apple Maps para navegación in situ y Drone Assist para conocer zonas restringidas al vuelo de drones. Movilidad y alojamiento: Alquiló coche con seguro a todo riesgo, lo que facilitó moverse por la isla. Las carreteras están en buen estado y el tráfico es muy fluido. El hotel, con piscina y desayuno buffet, aportó comodidad extra en un viaje que no fue 100% fotográfico. Localizaciones destacadas: Sete Cidades: el lugar que más le impresionó, pero que también le generó un bloqueo creativo por no conseguir la imagen que tenía en mente. Lagoa do Fogo: espectacular y muy accesible. Isla de Vila Franca: ideal para fotos con dron. Furnas y sus caldeiras: zonas volcánicas con actividad termal. Miradores: recomendados el Miradouro José Furtado y el de Pedras Negras. Playas como Mosteiros o Beira Mar: interesantes para explorar texturas y rocas. Reflexión sobre la presión creativa: Roger nos compartió cómo una imagen idealizada puede condicionar toda la experiencia, generando frustración si no se consigue. Una lección muy valiosa sobre no caer en la trampa de la expectativa y mantener una mente abierta durante el viaje. Fotografía con dron: São Miguel es un lugar excelente para volar. Recomendamos revisar mapas de zonas restringidas antes del viaje. El dron fue protagonista en la mayoría de sus tomas y permitió crear panorámicas espectaculares. Selección y copias de seguridad: Realizó backups diarios de las fotos del dron, y a la vuelta, volcó todo en su flujo habitual de Lightroom. Prioriza la organización, limpieza y edición paulatina de sus imágenes, y gestiona su archivo con copias dobles en disco externo. CONCLUSIONES Las Islas Azores, y en concreto São Miguel, ofrecen un destino ideal para fotografía de paisaje: belleza natural, poco turismo y buenas condiciones de trabajo. Con una planificación equilibrada y una mentalidad flexible, se pueden conseguir imágenes potentes y disfrutar plenamente de la experiencia fotográfica.

Interview starts at 33:05 Michael and Nick join us to chat about Atlantis, Atlantica - Michael's docuseries and the Azores as another location.   Michael talks about the 8 years of work, working at Giza, scanning techniques, shipwrecks, visual effects and this growing community. Then we get into what they have found of the coast of Spain. Plato, underwater currents, old explorers, ancient mining, Templars are also all discussed.   Since 2015, Michael has spearheaded multidisciplinary underwater and satellite expeditions along southern Spain's Atlantic coast with Merlin Burrows. Their explorations have uncovered concentric ruins off Cádiz that mirror Plato's description of Atlantis—circular city walls, a central temple, harbor structures—using sonar, LiDAR, dives, and lab-validated ancient concrete samples His efforts are captured in the three-part docuseries Atlantica: The Discovery of Atlantis, premiered at the South International Series Festival in Cádiz with a 10-minute standing ovation. The series assembles archaeological, geological, and historical evidence suggesting Atlantis may lie buried off the Andalusian coast http://www.ingeniofilms.com/films/atlantica/ https://www.instagram.com/michaeldonnellan_atlantica/   Nick Spratt.

Join Dave Roberts and Ken Pullin for Episode 379 of Let Me Tell You Why You Wrong, where they blend backyard reality with political insider drama. They open with life in Pike County under blistering summer skies—Ken's just marked his 22nd wedding anniversary while juggling his daughter's  Georgia Tech orientation (an $85 registration fee!) and the sticker shock of a $700 parking pass (Uber to the rescue, maybe). From there they steer into Atlanta's frenzy—$400-plus tickets to the MLB All-Star Game, Beyoncé's surprise country-music stop, and a preview of Whiskey Myers in Macon—before diving headlong into Georgia's next big showdown. Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones finally threw his hat into the governor's ring after the filing deadline, self-funding a $10 million launch video that features a surprise walk-on by Donald Trump and fond memories of his days kicking around the Bulldog football field. Dave and Ken unpack Jones's platform—abolishing the state income tax, fighting fentanyl, barring trans girls from girls' sports, and ending movie-industry tax credits—and compare it to Attorney General Chris Carr's $3.5 million war chest, the ever-teasing Marjorie Taylor Greene, and other potential contenders like Brad Raffensperger and Mike Collins. No Georgia episode would be complete without scandal, and this week the Frost family of Newnan steals the spotlight. Once major Republican donors, Brandt Frost 4 and his son Brandt Frost 5 now face an SEC civil suit accusing them of fleecing roughly 300 investors out of $140 million through their “Patriot Funds/Dollars” program, promising implausible 12–18% returns on risky loans while allegedly funneling $19 million into their own pockets (including a $320 000 rental home) and dumping $570 000 into political contributions.  They round out the show with a look at federal policy and public-health alarms: DHS's sudden end to the 19-year shoe-removal rule, Pam Bondi's flip-flop on the Epstein “no list,” an “activist judge” stay blocking Planned Parenthood defunding, and the routine—but controversial—purge of 478 000 Georgia voter-registration records. On the home front, one in three U.S. teens now carries pre-diabetes, a Delta A330's engine failure led to a 30-hour layover in the Azores, and Washington County's DUI cover-up—where private hires of a certain public defender triggered wholesale dismissals—remains a cautionary tale. Unfiltered, unapologetic, and undeniably Georgia, it's another roller-coaster hour with Dave and Ken.

What is the future of Digital Nomadism, Remote Work and Work from Anywhere? And should ASEAN destinations do more than issue Digital Nomad Visas to integrate remote workers into tourism economies? And who, actually, are digital nomads. Are they remote workers? Are they laptop backpackers? Is digital nomadism a lifestyle? Is it a tourism segment? What is borderless living? What are Micro-Societies? Why is global mobility developing as a hot topic? Are co-working and co-living compatible concepts for destination marketing? This week, Gary is joined by Milos Pelucha, Co-Founder of Destinova, and an advocate for remote work as a high-yield travel segment. Milos and Gary's conversation coincides with the climax of the 2025 Bansko Nomad Festival - the world's largest digital nomad gathering - in Bulgaria. We take a global journey through the critical issues of the remote working economy and the future of "borderless" tourism, from Armenia to China, Azores to Bhutan, Thailand to the French Alps, Morocco to Georgia and Vietnam to India. En route we breakdown the key components for destination marketers seeking to engage the fast-evolving 'work from anywhere' movement - which is becoming more organised and more dynamic.

But we're starting off with the 5 "big league" clubs who start their journey in the playoff qualifying round (aka the final step before the League Phase): Nottingham Forest, Rayo Vallecano, Mainz, Strasbourg, and of course, the Conference League house band - Fiorentina. We take a look at what each club has to offer on and off the pitch, why we're so excited to watch them, and what order they should be ranked as tournament contenders. Then, we move on to some lesser known participants from all over the continent - and some off of it. We take pitstops in Liechtenstein, Gibraltar, Kosovo, the Faroe Islands, and the Azores, as we introduce (or reintroduce) some of our favorite stories from the upcoming qualifying rounds and debate which minnows could make a Cinderella run at the League Phase! Cheers Marc Schneider!

“You can be a gardener trying to work against nature… or you can try and surf the wave of how nature works.”  Harnessing nature's intelligence and artificial intelligence together isn't just a good idea—it's how the future of regenerative land design will thrive. In this episode, we explore how one visionary designer has turned his passion for plant life, soil health, and sustainable farming into a system that helps landowners worldwide transform their property into high-vitality ecosystems. From the volcanic richness of the Azores to AI-powered plant mapping, the conversation covers deep principles of how to align with nature's laws for lasting abundance.  Guest Mathieu Mehuys shares how he scaled his expertise from a family farm in Belgium to projects across three continents, aided by a 9-week masterclass and a custom AI tool that generates location-specific planting plans. He breaks down the “law of attraction” in plants, why most gardeners are unknowingly weakening their soil, and how his award-winning book codifies 12 universal laws of nature for every landowner to apply.  Mathieu is an award-winning author and regenerative land designer. Raised on a farm, he holds a master's degree in landscape architecture and now teaches landowners how to design ecologically sound, AI-assisted gardens and farms through his book, masterclass, and international consultancy.  Learn more & connect:  12 Universal Laws of Nature: How to Get the Most Potential Out of Your Lands – by Matthieu Mehuys  Transform Your Garden in Just 30 Minutes with Matthieu's free 30-minute training:  www.gardenofyourdreams.com/freetraining  Raymond Aaron has shared his vision and wisdom on radio and television programs for over 40 years.

Send us a textEver wondered what it's like to lock eyes with a wild gorilla or swim alongside marine iguanas that snort salt to regulate their bodies? Jessica Kelly takes us behind the scenes of her fascinating career as a wildlife travel journalist and photographer, revealing how an unexpected path led her from psychology studies to documenting life on all seven continents.Jessica's story begins not with journalism school, but with a simple food blog called "It's Pop, Not Soda" that unexpectedly opened doors to food competitions and cookbook collaborations. When COVID claimed her event planning job, she transformed crisis into opportunity, taking over a travel section for a local newspaper focusing on nature-based destinations. The turning point came during a life-changing trip to Botswana during green season, where witnessing mothers with their baby elephants and lionesses hunting together left her forever changed. "It was just incredibly moving," Jessica reflects, "I felt like a different person after that trip."We dive deep into Jessica's most memorable wildlife encounters, from exploring the Galapagos Islands (where she insists everyone must snorkel) to trekking with gorillas in Rwanda and spotting tigers on safari in India. She offers practical wisdom on balancing healthy fear with respect when photographing powerful creatures, selecting ethical tour operators, and the gear she uses to capture her stunning images—from her Sony camera to her strategically chosen mini drone that skirts weight restrictions in many places. What distinguishes Jessica's approach is her authentic passion combined with journalistic persistence. She shares candidly about the less glamorous aspects of travel writing—the constant adaptation required, pitching stories for a year before getting a response, and finding unique angles when everyone on a press trip experiences the same activities. For those following in her footsteps or working with travel media, her advice is invaluable: allow time for organic discovery, lead with timely angles and never lose the excitement that makes each destination special.Follow Jessica's adventures on Instagram at AdventuresAreWaiting as she embarks on upcoming expeditions with National Geographic to Portugal's Azores, Alaska for grizzly bear photography and French Polynesia for her first scuba certification. Her story reminds us that the most rewarding paths are often the unexpected ones.Please take a moment to rate, review and subscribe to the Media in Minutes podcast here or anywhere you get your podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/media-in-minutes/id1555710662

Max Trescott and Rob Mark launch the first episode of NTSB News Talk, diving into NTSB agency news, recent accidents and newly published NTSB reports to help pilots better understand accident causes and improve decision-making in the cockpit. Please help us improve the show by sending us your feedback here. To hear future episodes of NTSB News Talk, Follow or Subscribe to the show in your podcast app. They begin with a surprising administrative shake-up: the unexplained termination of NTSB Vice Chairman Alvin Brown . Rob questions the lack of transparency, pointing out how an independent agency like the NTSB should not be subject to political scapegoating without clear justification. Max brings up that the NTSB is hiring . Next, they turn to cockpit video recorders—a long-recommended safety item by the NTSB. While commercial pilots and unions resist them on privacy grounds, Max and Rob argue that video can play a vital role in understanding pilot behavior and causes of crashes, especially in general aviation where data is often limited. Rob references Matt Thurber's editorial advocating for video recorders and highlights tools like CloudAhoy that already allow post-flight review. The hosts then discuss several accidents. One involved a Cessna 207 in Alaska that crashed during a go-around, possibly due to a dog on the runway. They examine when it's safer to land versus abort, and why go-around procedures—rarely practiced—are often poorly executed, even by experienced pilots. Two Citabria crashes raise density altitude concerns. One near Big Creek, Idaho , ended with no survivors; the other, in Wyoming, occurred during a flight to spread ashes . A partial engine power loss, high terrain, and low climb capability proved fatal. Both hosts emphasize how critical it is for instructors to teach performance limitations in high-elevation operations, especially in underpowered aircraft. Max talked about a Fireboss firefighting seaplane that ditched in the Atlantic, killing the pilot, while on a ferry flight to the Azores. He mentioned that experience ferry pilot Sarah Rovner talked in detail about ferry piloting issues in episode 379 of the Aviation News Talk podcast. Another incident highlights poor weather decision-making. A Piper PA-28 crashed near Mount Equinox, Vermont after entering icing conditions in IMC. The non-instrument-rated pilot, traveling with family on a ski trip, stalled and crash-landed. The hosts explain how "get-there-itis" and poor weather avoidance can prove fatal, and caution against pressing on in marginal conditions—especially with passengers aboard. The episode's deep dive analyzes the fatal accident of N611VG, a Citation 560 over Virginia. The pilot lost cabin pressure at high altitude and became incapacitated due to insufficient supplemental oxygen. The aircraft, operating Part 91, had numerous maintenance discrepancies—including an empty oxygen bottle and neglected pressurization issues. The pilot and passengers perished. Rob emphasizes that maintenance negligence is a silent killer, and guests aboard privately owned aircraft may have no idea about their true safety risks. Max and Rob conclude with a discussion on high-altitude emergency procedures, including explosive decompression response. They urge pilots to practice rapid descents to VMO and recognize the signs of hypoxia before it's too late. Finally, they encourage all pilots—regardless of experience—to schedule a flight review with an instructor to refresh skills like go-arounds and emergency descents. This debut episode delivers clear, actionable safety lessons and insider insight into real-world aviation accidents. It's a must-listen for pilots, CFIs, aircraft owners, and anyone serious about flight safety and learning from the NTSB's findings.
