First he is joined by Ida Zetterstrom fresh off her first Top Fuel final round and her best day as an NHRA racer. Ida talks about the work, the struggles, and the discoveries that have turned her team in the right direction. She is hunting sponsors hard and looking forward to Dallas with a renewed vigor and outlook. The second guest on the show is the Crew Chief on the Tony Stewat Racing Funny Car operation, Mike Knudsen. In his rookie season in the role, he scored his second victory of the year in impressive fashion in St Louis. He takes us deep inside the team element, the approach, and the satisfaction of success. Lohnes breaks down the points from all classes you know and love, brings some inside information to light, and sets up an exciting run to the end, starting in Dallas. Big weekend action from both of these guests, making their mark in NHRA drag racing.

The Pirates dropped a heartbreaker in Baltimore, losing on a crew chief review in extra innings. Jim and Tyler break it all down on tonight's North Shore Nine Postgame Show powered by Primanti Bros. We get into the Pirates' brutal offensive struggles (just 1-for-10 with runners in scoring position), the lack of power throughout the lineup, and how this continues to define their season. But it wasn't all bad—Mike Burrows looked sharp, Braxton Ashcraft showed why he's one of the most exciting young arms in the system, and Isaac Mattson turned in a Houdini act against his former team. Kyle Nicolas also extended his scoreless streak, showing flashes of being a real bullpen weapon. The guys also reflect on what another losing season means for this franchise and why the offensive woes feel so unsustainable moving forward.

Part two of this terrific interview:One of HBH's favorite guests is back, sharing more stories from his time on a Huey gunship helicopter as a Crew Chief and Door Gunner. As part of the 101st Airborne and a Black Angel, Roger Lockshier and his crew were routinely tasked with extracting MACV-SOG Green Berets during hairy combat in the jungles of Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.In this episode and his latest book, “Saving Infantry and SOG Souls,” Distinguished Flying Cross recipient, (and many other awards) Roger shares his adventures stateside in training; supporting Airborne infantry, LRRPs, MACV-SOG; and his combat experiences – including when the six-week Tet offensive caught US forces unawares. He describes how they sat on an armor backplate to protect them from gunfire coming from below, and how they carried their guns freehand, riding on the skids to get the best view possible of the battlefield below. Roger also details his equipment, (including the wider-blade C model helo, his ‘chicken vest,' etc.) his teammates, and taking on wounded even though their Huey wasn't designed or intended for that.(This is part one of two episodes airing back-to-back.)Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

Send us a textThink active duty is the only path? Derrick Blake would like a word—preferably during his 3-day weekend. From almost joining the Marines to wrenching on A-10s and recruiting for the 193rd Special Operations Wing, Derrick walks us through how the Air National Guard let him stay home, stack checks, and still deploy to undisclosed sandbox locations. Oh, and did we mention you start getting paid before basic? Yeah. This one's going to ruffle some feathers—and we love it.We talk Guard myths vs. facts, how student flight is the low-key cheat code, and why most people have no damn clue what the Guard even is. If you're trying to join TACP or EOD through the Guard and haven't hit up Derrick yet, what are you even doing?

In this episode, listeners are confronted with the raw, unvarnished reality of what it means to face a sudden, non-negotiable change in role-right on the eve of a major team event. Peter Consalvi, originally slated to run in Team RWB's Old Glory Ultra Relay, is forced by injury to relinquish his runner position and step up as crew chief. This isn't a gentle pivot; it's a high-stakes, high-pressure transition that demands immediate acceptance and a complete mental reset. Pete lays bare the emotional turmoil, the self-doubt, and the honest grief that comes with letting go of a role you've trained for, dreamed about, and been honored to fill. But he doesn't wallow-he attacks the new challenge, channeling his energy, experience, and leadership into ensuring the team's success from a new vantage point. This is not just about personal sacrifice; it's about recognizing when stubbornness becomes a liability to the mission and having the guts to make the hard call for the greater good. Listeners are challenged -- directly and unequivocally -- to examine how they respond when the ground shifts beneath their feet. Are you ready to drop your ego, recalibrate, and throw yourself into a new role at a moment's notice? Peter's journey is a masterclass in rapid mindset adjustment: he processes the loss, trusts his gut, and then gets to work, leveraging his strengths to support the team in a way that's just as critical as running. The episode pulls no punches about the discomfort and drama inherent in these transitions, demanding that you ask yourself: can you adapt fast enough when your plans explode? Can you communicate, lead, and execute without missing a beat? This is a call to action for anyone who wants to be indispensable-not just when things go according to plan, but especially when they don't.

Aviation maintenance training with the Chennault Aviation Maintenance Academy Director of Education, and with the Director of Maintenance for Chennault Aviation Services. In the news, more Newark Airport air traffic control problems, a large IAG order for Boeing and Airbus jets, calls to abolish airport screening, and Qatar's B747-8 gift. Guests Michael Riccardelli, Director of Education, Chennault Aviation Maintenance Academy (CAMA), and Joshua Borel, Director of Maintenance, Chennault Aviation Services. CAMA offers hands-on aviation maintenance training that combines technical excellence with real-world experience and is rooted in the legacy of General Claire Lee Chennault and the Flying Tigers. The Aviation Maintenance Technician (AMT) program is designed both for people starting a career, and for those looking to take a new direction. It provides the skills, knowledge, and certifications for success in aviation maintenance. Mike and Josh tell us about the non-profit Aerospace Maintenance Council and the Aerospace Maintenance Council Competition, which recognizes and celebrates the aviation maintenance technician. The competition is held annually in conjunction with Aviation Week Network's MRO Americas and, for the first time in 2025, in conjunction with Vertical Aviation International's VERTICON. Chennault Aviation was a sponsor of both events. CAMA offers three programs: the traditional 18-month classroom program, self-paced A&P online training, and Choose Aerospace, which is offered through the Aviation Technician Education Council (ATEC) for juniors and seniors in high schools. Joshua Borel, Michael Riccardelli, and Casey Salzar. Mike and Josh explain the worldwide shortage of aviation maintenance technicians and how they are taking action to help get younger people interested in aviation. They also describe the synergy provided when one location encompasses maintenance training, flight training, and an operating airport. Michael Riccardelli was a CH-46 Sea Knight Helicopter technician in the Marine Corps and received his A&P in 1991. He assisted NASA in the Columbia recovery operations and maintained helicopters in the oil and gas industry, as well as EMS helicopters for Air Evac Lifeteam. Mike started aviation maintenance instructing in 2011. He coached student aviation maintenance skills teams for 12 years, with multiple wins in various competitions, including the Aerospace Maintenance Competition. He fielded the first all-female student aviation maintenance skills team, which took first place. Joshua Borel flew model airplanes from the age of 8. He joined the Air Force in 2011 as a C-5 Galaxy ISO (heavy inspection) Crew Chief, winning two Knuckle Buster awards. In 2016, Josh enrolled in the Aviation Institute of Maintenance, winning 1st in the 2017 PAMA Olympics, 2nd in the 2017 AMC School Category, and 1st in the 2018 AMC School Category. He graduated in February 2018 with A&P as class Valedictorian. Joshua joined Chennault Aviation while it was just a Part 61 flight school. He received his PPL in 2021 and became Director of Maintenance in 2022. He helped grow the company into not only a flight school, but a Part 135 Charter, a Part 147 A&P School, and a public airport. Aviation News Newark Liberty Airport suffers third system outage in less than 2 weeks, impacting hundreds of flights Another week of delays and cancellations caused by a system outage. This time, a 45-minute ground stop was reportedly the result of a momentary failure of a backup system.

In the second installment of our interview, Frank Stoddard gives us an unfiltered, no-holds-barred, take-no-prisoners, damn the torpedoes, full steam ahead, INSIDE look at how his time as Jeff Burton's Roush Racing crew chief came to an inglorious end. We then take a look inside the March 7, 1996 issue of Winston Cup Scene. Jeff Gordon wins on a COLD weekend in Richmond, while Jack Roush isn't satisfied with his organization's results … and just wait until you hear WHERE his teams' drivers finished. It's SO cold … heck freezes over and NASCAR doesn't penalize three of the top-five finishers.

This episode of Veteran Made dives deep into the transformative power of purpose and the dangers of misdirected effort, featuring Roel Gonzalez, an Army veteran and crew chief for Team RWB's Old Glory Ultra Relay. Gonzalez shares his journey from military service to ultra running, revealing how even good things—like physical endurance or community service—can become harmful when pursued for the wrong reasons. He recounts his early experiences running marathons during deployment and how they shifted from a means of distraction to a source of purpose. The episode challenges listeners to reflect on their own actions and motivations, emphasizing that how we do things matters more than what we do. This is not just about physical feats but about aligning mindset and heartset to create meaningful impact. The conversation explores the unique dynamics of the Old Glory Ultra Relay, where runners carry the American flag across the country in a mission that transcends athleticism. Gonzalez highlights the importance of teamwork, adaptability, and shared purpose over individual achievement. He describes how his role as a crew chief involves balancing the physical and emotional needs of the runners while preparing for unforeseen challenges. The episode underscores that enduring hardship for a greater cause—what Gonzalez calls “elective suffering”—is a powerful way to grow and contribute meaningfully. It also critiques superficial approaches to failure, urging listeners to embrace setbacks as opportunities for deeper learning and growth. Listeners are left with a powerful takeaway: good intentions alone are not enough; actions must be rooted in genuine purpose and community connection. Gonzalez's raw honesty about his struggles with transitioning out of the military and rediscovering his sense of belonging through Team RWB is both inspiring and convicting. This episode pushes you to reevaluate your own motivations, challenging you to turn good deeds into great ones by aligning them with the right purpose. Whether you're a runner, a veteran, or someone seeking clarity in your life's mission, this episode will leave you motivated to rethink how you approach challenges and opportunities alike.
