Podcasts about Balloon fiesta

After a brief hiatus, we're back! In this episode, we catch up on everything that's happened over the last three weeks. Evan dropped a big announcement—he's engaged! He shares the exciting details of how the proposal went down during the Balloon Fiesta in New Mexico, with drones, fireworks, and even a glowing skull firing lasers, making for a wild but magical moment. There's a fun side story about how he managed to pull off the surprise proposal without Chelsea catching on, despite some well-played “hints” from her best friend.We talk about wedding planning, and how quickly the conversation has shifted to "When's the date?" Evan shares his early thoughts on planning, including the desire to make the day special without it feeling cookie-cutter. We also dive into the pros and cons of big traditional weddings versus more personal and unique celebrations.The episode is rounded out by discussing recent band events. We touch on some smaller gigs that didn't go as planned due to bad timing. There's also a bit of reflection on the joys of playing unplugged shows and how acoustic sets are growing on us.

TJ proclaims that things are back to normal after the Balloon Fiesta has finished, or are they? There is still Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas for more of TJ's and Albuquerque's shenanigan's.

First up this week is the EAA who says amateur-built fatal accidents are down 28% this year when compared to pervious years. This is down from 39 fatal accidents between Sept. 30th 2021 andSept. 30th 2022 to 28 between Sept. 30th 2022 and Sept. 30th, 2023. EAA Vice President of Advocacy and Safety Sean Elliot said “The activity data is necessary to paint the full picture, but the initial indications are very positive indeed. It shows a continuing trend toward safer operations, even as total hours flown increase. It reminds us that safety is an ongoing journey that always needs the highest attention of our flying community.” Keep being safe out there! Next up this week is a fiery gas balloon crash in Dallas. Two pilots in a gas balloon were competing in the Gordon Bennet Cup, a long distance race from Albuquerque and the goal is to fly the furthest. According to race organizers, the Poland 1 Team was over Dallas when the pilot reported he heard “What sounded like automatic gunfire” and began an emergency descent to avoid getting shot. During the emergency descent, the balloon hit a high-voltage power line causing an explosion. Both pilots were transported to the hospital with no word on their current conditions. According to officials at the Balloon Fiesta, “Both are experienced gas balloon pilots who have logged significant time in gas balloons. Our thoughts are with the gentlemen, their families and friends for a full and complete recovery.” We'll keep you updated if we see more. Next up this week is Michael Whitaker, the FAA Admin Nominee. Support from he Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation unanimously agreed that he's the right man for the job. While we don't normally like to talk politics, both major parties had good things to say about Whitaker, suggesting that a confirmation hearing may go more smoothly than the last. Whitaker said, “I would view my role as administrator, as chief recruitment officer, certainly for FAA, but also for the industry.” It's been over a year and a half since we had a senate confirmed administrator, we'll keep you updated if we see anything more! Last up this week is a big one, the EPA has released its findings on 100LL. We've seen a large push over the last year for the elimination of 100LL, with certain airports and states banning or attempting to ban its use. The EPA report reinforced this sentiment with the report stating “The science is clear: exposure to lead can cause irreversible and life-long health effects in children,” The EAGLE (Eliminate Aviation Gasoline Lead Emissions) group said during a briefing following the findings that they and the FAA are committed to ensuring the availability of 100LL until a safe and suitable replacement has been found. The FAA stated “The EPA can find that a component causes harm. The FAA will define the standards.” And described the timeline going forwards as a cooperative effort between the EPA and FAA. We'll continue to follow this story and update you if anything changes! That's it, have a great weekend, and we'll see you next week! https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/homebuilt-fatal-accident-rate-drops-28-percent https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/gunfire-preceded-gas-balloon-crash https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/biden-nominee-for-faa-administrator-notches-bipartisan-senate-support/ https://www.epa.gov/newsreleases/epa-determines-lead-emissions-aircraft-engines-cause-or-contribute-air-pollution https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/epa-releases-endangerment-finding-on-100ll-eagle-responds

It's been a burning question since 2021 when voters turned down a $50 million bond to build a soccer stadium near downtown Albuquerque. Where else might New Mexico United build a venue for their young and popular team? In recent weeks, United's owner Peter Trevisani leaked a big hint: the stadium could go in a place that rhymes with ‘Lagoon Siesta Park.' So how should we take this news? Will the franchise build a stadium at Balloon Fiesta Park? What more needs to be done before the steel and rebar start going up? This week, Chris and Gabby get the low-down from the team's owner and president/CEO, Peter Trevisani. He shares his vision for what a stadium would look like, why Balloon Fiesta Park, how it'll get paid for, and his idea on what the possible venue could mean for the city and state. We also dig into the past with Trevisani, regarding the 2021 bond. Why does he think voters turned down the bond question? What has he learned from the experience?  Those questions and more are all on this week's extended interview. Do you have thoughts about the show or people you'd like to hear from?

Two major milestones are on the podcast this week – the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta celebrates its 50th anniversary, while Chris and Gabby celebrate one year since the launch of the New Mexico News Podcast. To help mark the occasion, returning guest Tom Garrity joins the discussion to highlight what new things people should expect from this year's fiesta. A longtime spokesperson for the Balloon Fiesta, Garrity explains everything from world record-setting attempts, a return of international travelers, to fiesta's impact on the state's economy.  What's new this year? Will there be a pre-pandemic level return in attendance? Where are the best cinnamon rolls in New Mexico? (Chris really wants to know.)
