Tony Keller, columnist at The Globe and Mail, joins Stephen LeDrew for a wide-ranging discussion on Canada's economic future, global trade, and the hard choices ahead.Keller explains the lesson behind Airbus – how smaller countries cooperated to compete against Boeing – and why that example is now being raised in Canadian policy discussions. The conversation explores whether Canada can realistically diversify its trade away from heavy reliance on the United States while remaining economically integrated with it.They also discuss Mark Carney's approach to cooperation among smaller economies, Canada's limited trade exposure to China, concerns around technology theft and surveillance, and whether carefully structured deals can avoid damaging Canada–U.S. relations.This is a grounded, pragmatic conversation about trade, sovereignty, and what economic survival actually looks like for Canada in the years ahead.Independent voices matter.

Thursday February 12, 2026 Boeing Criminal Case Appellate Hearing by Russell Mokhiber

Watch Us On YouTube! Air India and Boeing are back in the headlines, and the questions aren't getting smaller. This week, Ed and Richard break down what we know — and what we don't — about the latest fuel switch reporting, what responsibility lies with Boeing versus airline operations, and why early narratives in aviation stories are often incomplete. From there, things get lighter: Frontier is giving away 5,000 miles (yes, really), Hyatt launches a new promotion that's worth a closer look, Aeroplan adds ITA Airways as a partner, and we revisit one of the most important lessons in modern travel: always have a backup flight plan. If irregular operations have taught us anything lately, it's that flexibility isn't optional anymore. Scroll down for timestamps and details.

This episode looks at two aviation accident investigations that were highly complex for very different reasons. One is the well-known TWA Flight 800 investigation where John Goglia and Todd Curtis were both directly involved. The other is a lesser-known 2002 crash of a Cessna 208B aircraft that is the subject of a book by author Leslie Kean.John and Todd review the crash of TWA Flight 800, an investigation where John was involved as an NTSB Board Member and Todd as support for Boeing. They explore the complexity of the investigation and the efforts made to understand the accident. They highlight the massive amount of data in the NTSB Public Docket.A different kind of complexity was involved in the investigation of a Cessna 208B aircraft that lost control and crashed shortly after takeoff from Mobile, Alabama. Leslie Kean covers this investigation in her 2010 book "UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record." She calls the accident a UAP event AND Todd agrees.John was also involved in the investigation as a NTSB board member. The NTSB identified the probable cause as spatial disorientation followed by a loss of control. However, one aspect of the accident remains unresolved. Several pieces of the wreckage have red streaks that could not be matched to aviation paint used on civilian or military aircraft. Several organizations were involved in this investigation. Despite multiple analyses of the red streaks, they could not be explained.

Boeing is moving 787 engineering jobs from Washington state to South Carolina. This decision raises questions about the company's commitment to its Washington workforce and the economic implications for the region. Some speculate this is due to Washington's policies while others claim it's simply cheaper to operate in South Carolina. What does this portend for the future of manufacturing and engineering jobs in the United States? We will examine the potential consequences of this shift and discuss the broader implications for workers and communities affected by similar decisions. Is this an isolated incident, or a sign of a larger trend?

Enjoyed this episode or the podcast in general? Send me a text message:A stealth “ghost” is quietly rewriting the future of airpower—and we pull the curtain back on what it means. The F‑47, centerpiece of the Air Force's Next Generation Air Dominance program, isn't just another fighter; it's the quarterback for a family of systems built to outrange, outcompute, and outlast peer adversaries. We break down why Boeing's mature prototype and St. Louis production muscle won the contract, how a tailless, all‑aspect stealth design enables high‑altitude, Mach‑class shots, and why intent‑driven autonomy with collaborative combat aircraft changes the math of modern air combat.We dig into the budget reality: a $4.4 billion surge for NGAD this year, F‑35 orders cut to focus on readiness and TR3 software, and a parallel push to field 1,000 loyal wingmen that extend sensors, carry extra AIM‑260s, jam S‑400s, and soak up enemy missiles as decoys. You'll hear how CCAs transform a single cockpit into a networked strike package, turning the F‑47 into a stealthy node that sees first and shoots farther while staying hidden. Along the way, we revisit recent operational lessons that sharpen the case for leap‑ahead ISR and intent‑based control, where AI executes the task and the pilot manages the fight.We also confront the hard questions. At roughly $300 million per airframe and a projected buy of 185 jets, can exquisite capability offset the risks of boutique numbers in a high‑attrition fight? Are we repeating concurrency mistakes, or finally aligning software, factories, and tactics? And where does the Navy's FAXX land as Congress revives funding but the industrial base strains to build two sixth‑gen fighters at once? By the end, you'll see the stakes of trading traditional mass for algorithmic speed and autonomous mass, and why the Air Force is betting that a few elite pilots leading a smart swarm can hold the line.If this deep dive helped you see the future of air combat more clearly, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review with your take: mass or algorithms?Support the showTo help support this podcast and become a PilotPhotog ProCast member: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1555784/supportIf you enjoy this episode, subscribe to this podcast, you can find links to most podcast streaming services here: PilotPhotog Podcast (buzzsprout.com) Sign up for the free weekly newsletter Hangar Flyingwith Tog here: https://hangarflyingwithtog.com You can check out my YouTube channel for many videos on fighter planes here: https://youtube.com/c/PilotPhotog If you'd like to support this podcast via Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/PilotPhotog And finally, you can follow me on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/pilotphotog

Mike Bara spent 25 years in aerospace working on Boeing 757, 767, F-35, and classified military programs before co-authoring the New York Times bestseller Dark Mission: The Secret History of NASA with Richard C. Hoagland.A frequent Ancient Aliens contributor and author of seven books on suppressed space discoveries, Bara uses his aerospace engineering background to challenge official narratives about extraterrestrial artifacts and secret technology programs. Starting as a Boeing draftsman in 1979, he advanced through experience on compartmentalized black programs, giving him unique insight into defense contracting and classified operations. He connects Roswell, the JFK assassination, and current Congressional UFO hearings, arguing that anti-gravity technology has existed since the 1960s and ancient civilizations left engineering marvels across our solar system.

Dupre shares insights from his faith journey and highlights the importance of effective leadership in achieving sustainable change. This blog post delves into key takeaways from their discussion, offering valuable lessons for anyone looking to lead effectively.Understanding the ForgePoint ConceptRandall Dupre's ministry, ForgePoint, serves as a metaphor for transformation. He explains that a forge point is a pivotal moment where the right conditions come together, allowing for significant change. Just as metal is transformed in a forge, individuals and organizations can experience profound change when they embrace the right mindset and practices.A Journey of Faith and TransformationDupre's journey began at 15 when he accepted Jesus Christ as his savior. Raised in a family with mixed religious backgrounds, his faith was not cultivated until he encountered a youth group that sparked his spiritual awakening. This experience ignited a passion for scripture and a desire to understand leadership through a faith-based lens. Dupre emphasizes the importance of personal transformation as a precursor to leading others effectively.The Importance of Leadership in Organizational ChangeThroughout his career in various manufacturing companies, Dupre observed that many transformation efforts failed due to a lack of effective leadership. He stresses that successful change is not merely about implementing tools or processes; it requires a culture of leadership that supports and sustains those changes. For instance, during his time at Boeing, a consulting firm highlighted that their organization was not ready for transformation due to cultural deficiencies. This revelation was a turning point for Dupre, leading him to focus on the intersection of leadership and faith.Key Leadership PrinciplesDupre draws inspiration from John Maxwell, who articulates that the best leaders embody principles demonstrated by Jesus. He believes that effective leadership begins with self-leadership, a concept he illustrates through personal anecdotes. Whether it's striving for personal goals or fostering a healthy organizational culture, leaders must set standards and hold themselves accountable. Dupre's belief is that where there are no standards, there can be no continuous improvement, echoing the principles of Kaizen in lean practices.Real-World Application: Case Study from BoeingRandall shares a significant experience from his tenure at Boeing, where he was tasked with leading a transformational change initiative. Despite hiring a prestigious consulting firm, the team discovered that without the right cultural foundation, their efforts would be futile. This scenario underscored the critical role of leadership in creating a conducive environment for change. Dupre's insights from this experience highlight

FAA reorganization and shutdown prep, Airbus A220 stretch, certification as a trade tool, UPS MD‑11 retirement, 777X engine snag, fatal Challenger crash, iconic aircraft, new NASM galleries, aviation career issues, aviation-themed music, and a future DC‑3/CH‑47 fly‑in. Aviation News FAA Adds Departments, Shuffles Roles The new FAA reorganization differs from the previous structure mainly by centralizing safety oversight, creating new modernization and advanced technology offices, and consolidating internal support functions under new top-level offices. A new, agency‑wide Aviation Safety Management System (SMS) Organization implements a single safety system and risk-management strategy across all FAA lines of business, rather than having safety functions and metrics siloed in multiple offices as before. An Airspace Modernization Office is dedicated to rolling out the “brand‑new air traffic control system” and overseeing broader NAS modernization, which previously was handled within the Air Traffic Organization and other units rather than a single, focused office. An Office of Advanced Aviation Technologies integrates UAS, eVTOL, AAM, electric, and supersonic aircraft into the NAS. These functions were formerly spread among UAS integration, NextGen, and various certification/AVS branches. A new Administration and Finance Office consolidates the functions of finance, information technology, and human resources. Previously, they were distributed across multiple lines of business and staff offices. A Policy and Legal Office pulls together policy, legal, stakeholder engagement, financial assistance, and the agency's rulemaking/regulatory office. Previously, rulemaking and policy lived mainly within Aviation Safety and other distinct policy offices. The Administration and Finance Office, Policy and Legal Office, Air Traffic Organization, and the new safety and modernization offices all report to the Administrator. Shutdown Plan for FAA Involves 10K Furloughs The FAA's plan for the short-lived partial government shutdown was to furlough more than 10,000 FAA workers and withhold pay for 13,835 air traffic controllers. Exclusive: Airbus to kickstart pre-sales for a larger A220 jet, sources say Airbus is considering launching an A220 stretch – the A220-500 with around 180 seats. This is a “simple stretch,” meaning the same wings, the same engines, and a longer fuselage. The Airbus Board approval is required before the A220-500 can be formally launched. Trade War Skies: Understanding Trump's 2026 Decertification Order on Canadian Aircraft In a January 30, 2026, social media post, President Donald Trump announced the “decertification” of all Canadian-manufactured aircraft if Gulfstream aircraft were not certified by Canada. The President alleged that Canada has “wrongfully, illegally, and steadfastly” refused to certify U.S.-made G500, G600, G700, and G800 jets. If Transport Canada did not act immediately, a 50% tariff would be implemented. Over 5,400 Canadian-built planes are registered in the U.S. This sent shockwaves, if not panic, throughout the industry. With time, clarification has come: The order would apply to new aircraft airworthiness certificates and wouldn't ground the fleet. The IAM (International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers) urged a separation of safety regulation and political grievances. “You can't weaponize the certification process,” said union leaders, emphasizing that aviation safety should remain an independent pillar of global travel. Some feel Transport Canada is holding off on certifying the G700 and G800 mainly because they are not willing to mirror the FAA's temporary fuel‑icing exemption. The Canadian regulator wants the full cold‑weather and icing compliance demonstrated first. UPS won't resurrect MD-11 fleet after deadly crash, takes $137M charge UPS is retiring its fleet of 27 MD-11 aircraft and, in the process, writing off $137 million after-tax. The MD-11s will be replaced with twin-engine Boeing 767-300 cargo jets. In response to the grounding of the MD-11 fleet, UPS repositioned some aircraft from outside the US, expanded transportation by truck, and leased planes from partner airlines. During an earnings call, Chief Financial Officer Brian Dykes said, “Over the next fifteen months, we expect to take delivery of 18 new Boeing 767 aircraft, with 15 expected to deliver this year. As new aircraft join our fleet, we will step down the leased aircraft and associated expenses. We believe these actions are consistent with building a more efficient global network positioned for growth, flexibility and profitability.” Boeing's certification ‘hangover' drags on with new 777X issue Also, Boeing has identified an engine durability issue with the General Electric GE9X engines that power the 777X, although CEO Kelly Ortberg says this will not impact the first 777X delivery in 2027. Also, Ortberg signalled to investors that the company plans to increase 737 MAX production this year to 47 from 42 planes per month. Boeing has been preparing a fourth MAX production line in Everett to produce 737 MAX 10s, although the aircraft has yet to receive certification. Boeing posted job openings for the line, and the tooling is complete. Tracing the hours after a fatal plane crash in Bangor The Bombardier Challenger 600‑series business jet crashed during takeoff from Bangor International Airport in a snowstorm, killing all six people on board and triggering a complex, weather‑hampered investigation. The business jet was operating a private flight from Bangor to Europe with two crew and four passengers from the Houston area. The plane had been deiced and was cleared for takeoff on runway 33 around 7:40–7:45 p.m., in heavy snow, with visibility down to about three‑quarters of a mile and several inches of snow on the ground. Within roughly a minute of takeoff clearance, controllers halted all traffic after the aircraft crashed on or near the runway, coming to rest inverted and on fire. Possible lines of inquiry include: Wing contamination and ice buildup are known risk factors that have contributed to past Challenger‑series accidents. Aircraft performance and whether the wing stalled on takeoff. Deicing procedures and timing relative to takeoff, including whether holdover times were exceeded. Crew qualifications, training, and recent duty history. Mechanical condition of the aircraft and any anomalies captured on the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder, which have been sent to the NTSB in Washington.

In this episode of the Govcon Giants Podcast, Eric Coffie sits down with Sam Le, founder of GovCon Intelligence and former SBA procurement policy leader with 17 years in federal contracting. Together, they break down the latest turbulence surrounding the 8A Program — including SBA's massive data call, the suspension of 1,100 firms, and heightened scrutiny on sole source awards above $20M. But despite the headlines, Sam explains why this may actually be the strongest moment in 8A history: the program reached a record $26B in awards in 2025, competition is shrinking, and small businesses that stay compliant can emerge with more opportunity than ever. The conversation also challenges misconceptions around "DEI labeling," highlights the true purpose of sole source contracting, and calls for SBA to expand visibility into industries like advanced manufacturing beyond the usual IT and construction pipeline. Key Takeaways: 8A is at an all-time high ($26B in 2025) even as 1,100 firms were suspended, reducing competition for active participants. Sole source contracts make up only 2–3% of federal spending, while 96% of sole source awards go to non-8A giants like Boeing and Lockheed. The biggest advantage right now belongs to firms that stay compliant, resilient, and relationship-driven before opportunities hit the bid platforms.

Politico similarly reported that the U.S. energy grid “leaned heavily on coal and natural gas generation to satisfy the energy appetite from Winter Storm Fern.” https://twitter.com/mayes_middleton/status/2015822288663228536?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2015822288663228536%7Ctwgr%5Eccb14922c034250da614ea4ff40e89ae08ce9117%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2026%2F02%2Freport-texas-wind-solar-failed-weeks-winter-storm%2F Source: thegatewaypundit.com China is on a ‘strong currency' mission to make the yuan a global reserve: Xi Xi Jinping says the goal of becoming an international powerhouse is a long-term one and will rest on core foundations China needs to build a “strong currency” that can become widely used in international trade, investment and foreign exchange markets, and reach the status of a global reserve. Source:.scmp.com Trump Launches $12 Billion Strategic Mineral Stockpile To Counter China; Rare Earth Stocks Jump The Trump administration is preparing to launch a major initiative aimed at protecting US manufacturers from disruptions in the supply of critical minerals, committing about $12 billion in initial funding to build a strategic stockpile of essential materials, according to Bloomberg. The project, known as Project Vault, is designed to reduce America's dependence on China for rare earths and other strategically important metals. By creating a centralized reserve for civilian industries, officials hope to cushion companies against sudden shortages and sharp price swings that can disrupt production and strain finances. Shares of MP Materials, USA Rare Earth, Critical Metals and other rare earth associated names are higher between 5% and 10% heading into the cash open on Monday on the news. At this point it’s safe to say last week’s Reuters rare earth hit piece (authored most likely at the behest of a disgruntled short), which sent the sector tumbling on disputed claims the Trump administration was seeking to distance itself from the rare earth space by moving away from a price floor on critical metals and suggesting MP’s deal with the government may be in question, has been thoroughly debunked. Even the MP Materials X account was mocking the grotesque misreporting: https://twitter.com/MPMaterials/status/2016734732835573833?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Project Vault will be financed through a mix of private and public funding: $1.67 billion is expected to come from private investors, while the US Export-Import Bank is set to provide a $10 billion loan with a 15-year term. The bank's board is scheduled to vote on the deal, which would be the largest in its history. More than a dozen major companies have joined Project Vault, including General Motors, Stellantis, Boeing, Corning, GE Vernova, and Google. Three large trading firms – Hartree Partners, Traxys North America, and Mercuria Energy – will handle sourcing and purchasing materials for the stockpile.    Source: zerohedge.com https://twitter.com/Geiger_Capital/status/2018319873609290010?s=20 https://twitter.com/StephenMoore/status/2017295983940354307?s=20 https://twitter.com/profstonge/status/2018300872447418573?s=20 (function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:18510697282300316,size:[0, 0],id:"ld-8599-9832"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src="https://cdn2.decide.dev/_js/ajs.js";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,"script","ld-ajs"); Political/Rights https://twitter.com/rickygervais/status/2018249171900227730?s=20 https://twitter.com/NICKIMINAJ/status/2018147684276748388?s=20 https://twitter.com/NICKIMINAJ/status/2018146323581513971?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2018146323581513971%7Ctwgr%5Ebf8eb4e3fdfcee731660a65a8ed9f8dad15fa004%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2026%2F02%2Fnicki-minaj-fires-back-grammys-host-trevor-noah%2F know — yet they continue to attempt bullying.

The former cabinet minister, who was sacked as US ambassador last year because of his past connections to Epstein, appeared in the latest release of files by the US Department of Justice on Friday. Documents suggest Epstein made $75,000 (£55,000) in payments to Lord Mandelson in three separate $25,000 transactions in 2003 and 2004. In his letter to Labour’s general secretary on Sunday, Lord Mandelson said: “I have been further linked this weekend to the understandable furore surrounding Jeffrey Epstein and I feel regretful and sorry about this.” He added: “Allegations which I believe to be false that he made financial payments to me 20 years ago, and of which I have no record or recollection, need investigating by me.

Image of de-arresting by Minnesota ICE Watch. Minnesota ICE Watch, the organization that Renee Good and her wife were members of, distributed a document known as the “De-Arrest Primer,” which instructs activists on how to physically interfere with law enforcement officers during arrests. The manual provides detailed guidance on pulling detainees from officers' grips, pushing and pulling officers, breaking holds, and opening law enforcement vehicles to free suspects. The manual also teaches the use of coordinated chanting to create confusion and overwhelm officers during active arrests, as well as surrounding officers until they release detainees. The guide openly acknowledges that these actions may constitute criminal offenses but argues that the risk is justified. Each successful interference is described as a “micro-intifada,” framed as a tactic meant to spread, replicate, and inspire wider disruption. The manual claims these methods originated in pro-Palestinian campus protests and presents them as a model for broader resistance activity. While no single formal publisher is identified, the manual appears to originate from broader activist and radical networks that promote direct physical interference with law enforcement. It has circulated widely through Instagram and other activist communication channels and has been used in training individuals described as “constitutional observers” or “ICE watchers.”   Source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/nicksortor/status/2018111147237425556?s=20   https://twitter.com/nicksortor/status/2018114619320017259?s=20   JUST IN: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson Signs “ICE On Notice” Executive Order to Prosecute ICE Agents  Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson at a press conference hosted by Illinois Governor J.B.

In other words, if we don't close, the quality of Construction will not be nearly as good, and the time to completion, because of interruptions with Audiences from the many Events using the Facility, will be much longer. The temporary closure will produce a much faster and higher quality result!   Based on these findings, and totally subject to Board approval, I have determined that the fastest way to bring The Trump Kennedy Center to the highest level of Success, Beauty, and Grandeur, is to cease Entertainment Operations for an approximately two year period of time, with a scheduled Grand Reopening that will rival and surpass anything that has taken place with respect to such a Facility before.   Therefore, The Trump Kennedy Center will close on July 4th, 2026, in honor of the 250th Anniversary of our Country, whereupon we will simultaneously begin Construction of the new and spectacular Entertainment Complex. Financing is completed, and fully in place! This important decision, based on input from many Highly Respected Experts, will take a tired, broken, and dilapidated Center, one that has been in bad condition, both financially and structurally for many years, and turn it into a World Class Bastion of Arts, Music, and Entertainment, far better than it has ever been before. America will be very proud of its new and beautiful Landmark for many generations to come. Thank you for your attention to this matter!   PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP President Trump to SETTLE $10 BILLION IRS LAWSUIT — Plans to DONATE THE PROCEEDS TO CHARITY President Donald J. Trump is preparing to settle his massive $10 billion lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Treasury Department, and he says he will donate the entire payout to reputable charities instead of keeping a penny for himself. President Trump, Eric Trump, Don Jr., and the Trump Org filed a lawsuit against the IRS for leaking their tax returns. They are seeking $10 billion in damages. In September 2023, federal prosecutors charged a former IRS contractor who worked for the agency from 2018 to 2020 with unlawfully obtaining and disseminating the tax details of a high-ranking public official and numerous affluent Americans to media outlets. According to court documents and an official press release from the Department of Justice, Charles Littlejohn, 38, of Washington, D.C., stole tax return information associated with a high-ranking government official, referred to as Public Official A  – now known as Donald Trump. He then disclosed this information to a news organization identified as News Organization 1 – now known as The New York Times. Littlejohn reportedly stole IRS information on thousands of wealthy people. The stolen information was then disseminated to two news outlets (New York Times and ProPublica). “In July and August 2020, Littlejohn separately stole tax return information for thousands of the nation's wealthiest individuals. Littlejohn was again able to evade IRS detection. In November 2020, Littlejohn disclosed this tax return information to News Organization 2, which published over 50 articles using the stolen data. Littlejohn then obstructed the forthcoming investigation into his conduct by deleting and destroying evidence of his disclosures,” the DOJ previously said.

In the same district in 2024, the voter turnout was 400,339. 3. In the same district in 2022, the voter turnout was 277,883. 4. This was a special election to fill a vacant seat resulting from a state senator's promotion into state comptroller. 5.

No. Is it bad for the GOP? No. Then what is it, CP, you big smartypants? IT'S NOTHING. IT'S MEANINGLESS. So everybody please calm down. For the 2026 midterms, every Trump voter knows that if he does not win, the House will impeach him twice weekly. That fact will be as widely understood as any fact during the 2024 election. There are still many issues Trump needs to work on, and I'm not guaranteeing a 2026 victory. What I AM guaranteeing is that yesterday's TX-SD9 election has as much meaning as peanut butter on a dog's nose.

AUGUST PFLUGER, Chair of Republican Study Committee nails it: “The House did our job nearly 300 days ago.

Trump’s motivations stem from a desire to create a grand symbol of American pride and exceptionalism, emphasizing that Washington, D.C., is “the only city in the world that’s of great importance that doesn’t have a triumphal arch  The arch signifies Trump’s emphasis on monumental nationalism and grandeur, evoking historical triumphal arches built by emperors and leaders to commemorate triumphs and project power—earning it nicknames like “Arc de Trump.”  (function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:13499335648425062,size:[0, 0],id:"ld-7164-1323"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src="//cdn2.customads.co/_js/ajs.js";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,"script","ld-ajs");

If you've ever trusted an airline, packed food “for later,” or believed a groundhog — this funny comedy podcast is here to hurt you.The Rizzuto Show comedy kicks off February already in shambles after a three-day weekend absolutely wrecks the studio's muscle memory. Punxsutawney Phil emerges, sees his shadow (allegedly), and condemns us all to six more weeks of winter while the crew debates whether anyone actually knows how Groundhog Day works.Then Rafe Williams recounts one of the most cursed travel weekends imaginable: stranded airports, nonstop delays, pilots who clearly should not be making small talk, and a Five Guys order forgotten in a backpack that slowly transforms into a greasy war crime mid-flight. Things escalate when the plane heats up like a sauna, passengers start passing out, and the smell of fries becomes a supporting character.The crew also breaks down the new Real ID situation — including the $45 TSA “Confirm ID” fee that feels suspiciously like a cover charge to exist — and debates whether complying with the government is worth it or if Rafe should fully commit to sovereign citizen energy. Along the way, flight attendants are praised as saints, airlines are ranked (American Airlines finishes exactly where you think), and a Boeing 777 toilet failure story pushes everyone to their emotional limit.Add in Rizz Show Night at the Blues game, Lern losing her car, and Lern discovering she somehow looks like Warwick Davis and Brianna Chickenfry in the same weekend, and you've got a funny podcast that spirals exactly the way it should.It's airline chaos, pop culture confusion, and daily comedy from start to finish — just another normal day on The Rizzuto Show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we break down how severe winter weather has upended the freight market, causing tender rejections to spike well above holiday peaks. Recent data indicates that Winter Storm Fern caused massive disruption, revealing a truckload market that is far more volatile than seen in previous years. We also discuss reports that Amazon is preparing to launch its external LTL service this summer, targeting specific shippers to build density. Analysts suggest Amazon has already contacted a significant portion of the market, signaling a move that could be highly disruptive to incumbent carriers. The conversation shifts to the sky, where Maersk Air Cargo is canceling its Asia-US flights to focus on more efficient aircraft. Sources indicate that Amazon is the likely buyer for the fleet of Boeing 767 freighters as Maersk terminates its contract with Amerijet. Finally, we examine a controversial Arizona bill targeting fake CDLs that would allow law enforcement to seize vehicles from non-compliant carriers. This state-level push highlights a broader federal enforcement gap, where limited verification mechanisms allow dangerous drivers to simply ignore out-of-service orders.

Some days, leadership doesn't feel inspiring. It feels heavy. You're carrying decisions that affect other people, trying to stay calm when everything feels urgent, and quietly wondering if you're doing enough or doing it right. If that's where you are right now, this conversation is for you. In this episode, we slow leadership down and return to what actually works when the pressure is real, the stakes are high, and people are counting on you.Our guest, Mark Fava, brings a rare perspective shaped by environments where mistakes cost lives, not just profits. A U.S. Navy veteran, former naval aviator, and author of Lessons from the Admiral, Mark has served at the highest levels of military and corporate leadership, including senior roles at Delta Airlines and Boeing, and as an aide to a U.S. Navy Admiral. His experience cuts through noise and ego to reveal what truly builds trust, clarity, and resilience.This isn't a conversation about theory. It's about how leaders actually think, decide, and show up when things don't go as planned. Especially now, when expectations are high, attention is fractured, and teams are tired, these lessons matter. This episode is a reminder that leadership isn't about having all the answers. It's about creating clarity, staying human, and choosing to learn again and again. Wherever you are in your career, you still have agency. You can slow down, ask better questions, and lead with intention.Actionable Takeaway: How thinking five years ahead can calm today's chaos and give your decisions directionWhy clear roles, standards, and debriefs reduce overwhelm and build confidenceHow small acts of respect— like saying thank you can create loyalty far beyond titlesWhat the military gets right about time, preparation, and accountabilityWhy asking for help is a strength and how great leaders do it without losing credibilityConnect with Mark FavaLearn more about Mark FavaMark on LinkedInCheck Mark's BookConnect with Christian "Boo" Boucousis:Learn more about Christian BoucousisBoo on LinkedInBoo on InstagramBoo on YouTube

Send us a textScott Roberts is the North American Regional Sales Manager for Bodycote's S³P technologies, where he oversees the sales team and rep network responsible for bringing one of the most unique surface hardening processes to manufacturers across the country. The S³P family of treatments—including Kolsterising—uses low-temperature carbon diffusion to create exceptionally hard, wear-resistant surfaces while preserving the corrosion resistance that stainless steels and cobalt-chromium alloys are valued for.Scott didn't begin his career in materials science or engineering, yet he has built deep expertise in helping engineers and manufacturers solve hard problems related to wear, galling, friction, and component longevity. Through roles ranging from business development to market management, he has spent nearly 10 years guiding customers through when and why processes like Kolsterising offer a major performance advantage—and how they differ from more traditional hardening methods that can cause distortion, cracking, or loss of corrosion resistance.Before joining Bodycote, Scott worked in metals sales for aerospace customers such as Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and GKN, giving him early insight into how demanding applications push material limits. He has since combined that application-level understanding with extensive real-world customer consulting, helping companies in medical devices, industrial equipment, energy, and beyond adopt surface-engineering solutions that extend component life and reduce failure rates.Today Scott is a key voice in the growing conversation around advanced diffusion-based hardening technologies. His passion is teaching engineers what these processes can (and cannot) do, clarifying common misconceptions, and helping teams make smarter decisions about material selection and treatment—especially when performance requirements are mission-critical.LINKS: Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-roberts-574aa94/Guest website: https://www.bodycote.com/  Aaron Moncur, host Download the Essential Guide to Designing Test Fixtures: https://pipelinemedialab.beehiiv.com/test-fixture Subscribe to the show to get notified so you don't miss new episodes every Friday.The Being An Engineer podcast is brought to you by Pipeline Design & Engineering.

We've been deluged with the annual economic and market forecasts that traditionally mark the turn of a new year. Is it worth paying attention to these forecasts, or are they a waste of time? Maybe a little bit of both? Today, we're joined by Marketplace senior economics contributor Chris Farrell to assess their worth. But first, we'll discuss some of the forecasts and market conditions the Federal Reserve has in mind at this week's meeting. And, Boeing's revenue is up, as are its airplane delivery numbers.

UNH and Health Stocks - DOWN 20% today - The administration's proposal (via the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS) for Medicare Advantage reimbursement rates to rise by only 0.09% in 2027. This was far below Wall Street expectations of 4-6% (or higher), following a more generous ~5% increase for 2026. - The near-flat rate aims to improve payment accuracy, curb overbilling practices, and protect taxpayers, according to CMS statements, but it sparked widespread concerns about squeezed insurer margins, potential benefit cuts for seniors, reduced plan offerings, or market exits. - UnitedHealth has significant exposure to Medicare Advantage (roughly 30% of national enrollment), making it particularly vulnerable. The proposal, announced late Monday (January 26), led to a broader sell-off in health insurers: - - Humana (HUM) plunged over 20-21%. - - CVS Health (CVS) and Elevance Health (ELV) each dropped around 13-14%. Tech Earnings Microsoft (MSFT) Reports: Wednesday, January 28 (After Market Close) - Wall Street Expectations:  Earnings per share (EPS): about $3.86 and Revenue: about $80 billion - Growth: high teens year over year revenue growth - Investors are focused on Azure and broader cloud growth, particularly how much of that growth is coming from AI related demand. Microsoft has built a reputation for consistent execution, which also means expectations are high. The critical issues will be cloud growth sustainability, margin stability, and how aggressively management plans to keep spending on AI infrastructure. Meta Platforms (META) Reports: Wednesday, January 28 (After Market Close) - Wall Street Expectations:  EPS: about $8.15–$8.20 and Revenue: about $58–$59 billion - Growth: roughly 20–21% year over year revenue growth - Advertising remains the core driver, with AI driven ad targeting continuing to improve returns for advertisers. While topline growth expectations remain strong, investors are closely watching expense growth. The biggest question is whether rising AI and infrastructure spending can be managed without eroding margins or spooking investors, as Meta works through the next phase of its AI strategy. Tesla (TSLA) Reports: Wednesday, January 28 (After Market Close) - Wall Street Expectations:  EPS (non GAAP): about $0.40–$0.45 and Revenue: about $24.5–$25 billion - Trend: earnings expected to be sharply lower than a year ago - Tesla enters earnings with the weakest expectations among the major tech names this week. Vehicle deliveries declined year over year, and automotive margins remain under pressure. While the energy and services segments continue to grow, they are not yet large enough to offset slowing EV demand. - Investors will be far more focused on forward guidance than on the quarter itself—particularly updates on Full Self Driving, robotaxis, and the broader AI roadmap. Apple (AAPL) Reports: Thursday, January 29 (After Market Close) Wall Street Expectations -  EPS: about $2.65–$2.67 and Revenue: about $138 billion Growth: approximately 11–12% year over year revenue growth - This is Apple's most important quarter of the year. Expectations call for record revenue driven by the iPhone 17 cycle and continued Services growth. The focus will be on margins, China demand, and forward guidance—particularly how higher costs (memory prices and tariffs) may impact profitability. Apple typically beats expectations, but the stock reaction will hinge on what management says about growth beyond this quarter. Company Ticker Report Date Est.

Pilot Nicki returns to describe her 1948 Globe Swift and explain her plans to make a mid-life career change and become a professional pilot. In the news, the FAA Administrator says what to expect from the “brand new air traffic control system,” a bill to address ADS-B “misuse,” navigating around the debris field after a rocket failure, accelerating the MV-75 Tiltrotor program, flying the Qatari 747 as Air Force One, reduced security restrictions at Heathrow, and a private jet crash in Maine. Guest Nicki Hovanec just reached her goal of 1500 flight hours and now plans to make a mid-life career change and become a professional pilot. She fell in love with aviation at an early age and attended Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University for Aviation at Daytona Beach, Florida. But 911 impacted Nicki's career trajectory and took her away from aviation. However, with encouragement from her spouse, she returned to aviation, obtained her pilot’s license, and will soon look to be hired by an airline. Nicki trained through independent flight schools and completed her solo in 2017, receiving her initial pilot’s certificate. She continued her training and completed additional certifications on various aircraft while progressing towards her goal of 1500+ flight hours. Nicki saved and borrowed funds to purchase a Cessna 152. Eventually selling that plane, she bought a 1948 Globe Swift tail-dragger, her current airplane. With 1,500 flight hours completed, Nicki now begins the job search for a professional pilot position, starting with the NGPA job fair. We’ll continue to follow her progress. A little history: In May 2017, Nicki sought our advice about starting flying lessons and making a career change to become a professional pilot. We encouraged her to keep us informed about her progress, and Nicki did so by sending us over a dozen recordings documenting her journey getting a pilot's license. We were happy to include those in our podcast episodes. Nicki and her 1948 Globe Swift.

FAPA.aero (Future & Active Pilots Alliance) Aviation News FAA's Bedford Provides Glimpse into U.S. ATC's Future At the monthly Aero Club of Washington, D.C. luncheon, FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford talked about the “brand new air traffic control system.” He described: “Greater precision about… flight trajectories… [while] navigating through the airspace.” Many fewer handoffs flying through the system. A cultural shift away from focusing on takeoff to when a pilot wants to land.  Changing the innovation cycle to be more like Apple or Tesla. AOPA urges members to contact their representatives in Congress AOPA issued a call to action asking its 300,000 members to contact their senators and representatives in Congress and urge them to cosponsor the Pilot and Aircraft Privacy Act (PAPA). AOPA President Darren Pleasance said, “When the ADS-B mandate went into effect in 2020, the FAA said this important technology would only be used for safety and airspace efficiency. Instead, we're now seeing it used in ways that discourage adoption…The misuse of ADS-B is a step backward for aviation safety and erodes trust in our aviation system.” If passed, PAPA would prohibit the use of ADS-B data to assist in the collection of fees from pilots or aircraft owners and clarify that ADS-B data may only be used for its intended purposes of air traffic safety and efficiency. PAPA was introduced in 2025 by Rep. Bob Onder (R-Mo.) as H.R.4146 and Sen. Ted Budd (R-N.C.) as S.2175. “We're Too Close to the Debris” On January 16, 2026, ATC instructed Caribbean flights to avoid the FAA's debris zone after a SpaceX Starship rocket exploded. Dozens of planes made sharp turns to avoid the danger zone, which was closed for 86 minutes. ProPublica says this made “pilots and passengers unwitting participants in SpaceX's test of the most powerful rocket ever built.” Army Punches Its MV-75 Tiltrotor Program Into Overdrive The Army wants to see the MV-25 testing this year and in service in 2027. Just twelve months ago, the Army targeted 2030. At the 2022 competition, service was expected in the mid-2030s. The MV-75 is the designation given to the U.S. Army's Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA) tiltrotor. The design is based on the Bell V-280 Valor tiltrotor and will replace many of the H-60 Black Hawk helicopters. The V-280 demonstrator has flown, but not the MV-75 configuration. Qatari 747 to fly as Trump's Air Force One this summer In May 2025, the US government accepted the 747 jetliner donated by the Qatari government to serve as a new Air Force One. Modifications began in September. An Air Force spokesperson said in a statement that delivery of the aircraft is anticipated no later than summer 2026. Calling it a “VC-25 bridge aircraft,” the Trump administration intends this plane to serve as an interim Air Force One while waiting for the two 747s currently being modified by Boeing. The Air Force is expecting the first Boeing-modified 747 to be handed over in “mid-2028,” a delay of roughly four years. London’s Heathrow eases liquid and laptop rules after £1 billion security upgrade The airport completed a £1bn CT scanner upgrade across all four Heathrow terminals. This allows passengers to carry liquid containers up to two liters, and the removal of laptops from bags is no longer required. 7 dead, 1 seriously injured in plane crash at airport in Bangor, Maine, FAA says A Bombardier CL-600-2B16 Challenger 650 veered off the runway on takeoff and crashed at Bangor International Airport in Maine. There was snow at the time of the plane crash due to a large winter storm. See also: Private jet carrying 8 crashes at Maine airport, FAA says.

The freight market is aggressively correcting toward specialization, highlighted by Werner Enterprises' decision to acquire dedicated carrier FirstFleet for $245 million. This strategic move adds over 2,400 tractors to their fleet and secures stable revenue streams in an otherwise volatile sector. While carriers expand, major retailers like American Eagle and Office Depot are pulling the plug on third-party logistics services to refocus on core operations. These companies realized that selling "supply chain as a service" became an operational nightmare that distracted from their primary retail goals. Automation takes a giant leap forward as Gatik launches fully driverless commercial trucking operations in Texas, Arkansas, and Arizona. By removing the safety driver entirely, the company is effectively solving the middle-mile challenge for Fortune 50 retailers moving perishable goods. Efficiency drives major changes at UPS, where the parcel giant plans to eliminate 30,000 jobs while downsizing its network to manage lower Amazon volumes. The company is also modernizing its air capacity by permanently retiring its aging MD-11 fleet in favor of more efficient Boeing 767s following a recent fatal crash. Financial scandals rock the brokerage world as a new lawsuit alleges the R&R Family of Companies continued operating while insolvent, racking up millions in unpaid bills. Court filings claim the founders transferred valuable property to themselves even as lenders urged an orderly wind-down of the business. Finally, regulators have opened a public comment period regarding the controversial under-21 interstate trucking program amid strong industry debate. While large fleets push to extend the pilot to address labor shortages, safety advocates warn of higher crash risks associated with younger drivers.
