As aircraft become more computerised - and even pilotless - they’re also more vulnerable to space events like the giant solar flare that put an Airbus into an ‘uncommanded’ dive and grounded thousands of flights. So should we praise Airbus for acting quickly, or rethink the risk of autopilot systems?

En esta entrevista, el capitán Juan Esteban Villa, presidente de la Asociación Colombiana de Aviadores Civiles, explica la reciente directiva de aeronavegabilidad emitida por EASA tras un incidente con un Airbus A320 de JetBlue. Se requiere que 6,400 aeronaves de este modelo realicen una actualización de software para corregir vulnerabilidades relacionadas con la radiación solar que afecta los sistemas de control de vuelo. Villa destaca la importancia de la seguridad aérea y la responsabilidad de las aerolíneas en cumplir con estas directrices. Además, se discuten los tiempos de modificación y el impacto en los vuelos, enfatizando que es preferible estar en tierra que volar con problemas. Esta conversación es crucial para entender cómo la tecnología y la seguridad se entrelazan en la aviación moderna.

« Faire de l'argent, pas la guerre : tel est le véritable plan de Trump pour la paix en Ukraine », annonce le Wall Street Journal, selon lequel « le Kremlin a présenté à la Maison Blanche une stratégie de paix par le commerce », « stratégie à laquelle le président Trump et son envoyé spécial Steve Witkoff ont adhéré, pour la plus grande consternation de l'Europe », poursuit le quotidien américain. Le Wall Street Journal raconte ainsi que lors d'une rencontre à Miami Beach, le mois dernier, « Steve Witkoff, promoteur immobilier milliardaire devenu envoyé spécial de Donald Trump, Kirill Dmitriev directeur du fonds souverain russe et négociateur choisi par Vladimir Poutine, ainsi que Jared Kushner, le gendre du président, se sont retrouvés pour élaborer en secret une stratégie pour sortir la Russie de l'isolement économique, avec des entreprises américaines prioritaires, pour devancer leurs concurrentes européennes et ainsi bénéficier des dividendes ». Visiblement, les Américains et les Russes ont de l'appétit. Il est notamment question « d'une reconstruction de l'Ukraine par les États-Unis » ou encore « d'une association entre les entreprises américaines et russes pour exploiter les vastes richesses minières de l'Arctique. » Conclusion du Wall Street journal : « Le tableau qui se dessine est celui de chefs d'entreprise, œuvrant hors des circuits diplomatiques traditionnels pour consolider un accord de paix par le biais d'opérations commerciales ».  Des nouveau-nés dans le froid et la pluie Le journal La Croix publie un article sur l'hiver à Gaza. « À Gaza, les habitants sont dans l'eau, le froid et l'abandon », titre le quotidien français. « À l'aube d'un troisième hiver marqué par les déplacements, les destructions et une aide humanitaire résiduelle, les Palestiniens de Gaza subissent depuis plusieurs jours les conséquences d'une pluie froide qui rend invivable le quotidien sous des tentes ou dans des immeubles en ruines » poursuit le journal qui a interrogé Caroline Seguin, coordinatrice de Médecins sans Frontières, sur place depuis cinq semaines. Elle explique : « Comme l'armée israélienne occupe encore 50% du territoire, la population n'a pas d'autre choix que de rester dans des zones inondables. C'est la misère et le désespoir ». « La situation est d'autant plus préoccupante », nous dit la Croix, « que la Bande de Gaza enregistre actuellement un pic de naissances, correspondant au cessez-le-feu d'il y a 9 mois. » La coordinatrice de Médecins sans Frontières s'inquiète : « Tous ces nouveau-nés vont passer des mois dans le froid et la pluie. Je ne sais pas quelles conséquences cela va avoir sur la mortalité infantile, d'autant qu'il y a beaucoup de prématurés à cause de la malnutrition des femmes enceintes.  » Trafic perturbé Des perturbations à prévoir dans le ciel : 6 000 Airbus A320 sont rappelés pour une modification technique. Toute la presse européenne en parle ce matin. « 6 000 A320 doivent arrêter immédiatement les vols pour changer d'urgence un logiciel de commandes vulnérables aux radiations solaires », explique le Parisien. C'est à la suite d'un incident survenu le 30 octobre que ce rappel a été décidé. Le Monde raconte : « Un A320 de Jet Blue était en phase de croisière entre Cancun, au Mexique, et Newark aux États-Unis, lorsque l'appareil a soudainement piqué vers le bas, sans intervention des pilotes », qui ont tout de même réussi à poser l'avion à Tampa, en Floride. La solution pour remédier à cette situation, « consiste principalement à revenir à une version antérieure du logiciel et c'est relativement simple », explique le Guardian, à Londres. Selon le Soir, à Bruxelles, ce changement de logiciel « ne prendra que quelques heures », pour la plupart des avions. Mais il aura bien sûr des conséquences sur le trafic. Air France a annulé 35 vols dès vendredi soir. Un mauvais moment à passer pour les voyageurs et pour l'avion le plus vendu au monde.

It's Thanksgiving Eve in YFT-land, which means it's officially time to debate the truly important things — like whether peanut butter whiskey counts as a respectable holiday gift and if the college years were actually the peak Thanksgiving era. Brandi reports back from her Vegas F1 adventure, while Wells's schedule has fewer openings than a Costco parking lot on a Saturday. Ya boy is booked.JetBlue somehow earns a ding for going above and beyond (words we never thought we'd say about an airline), a lonely NYC smoker suddenly has hundreds of new friends, and February 2026 may just be the most mathematically perfect month ever created. Brandi drops her hot take on the DWTS drama, and the episode wraps with gratitude shoutouts from both your hosts — especially to YOU, YFT fam.385 episodes in and still going strong. Thankful for our weird, wild, and wonderful listeners. Enjoy your turkey day!

RUNDOWN   We're in a foul mood after the Seahawks' ugly loss to the Rams, unpacking Sam Darnold's four-interception stinker, the looming backlash from "I told you so" Darnold haters, and the gut-punch of Gray Zabel's injury. Mitch unleashes a full-on rant about Greg Olsen's broadcast style ("constant blabber"), while Scott notes how different the offense looks without Tory Horton on the field. The mood finally lifts with the news that the Mariners have locked up Josh Naylor on a five-year extension, giving Seattle fans a much-needed jolt of optimism. And then some baseball outrage: Cal Raleigh narrowly finishes second in AL MVP to Aaron Judge. Mitch is joined by Brady Henderson (ESPN) and Jacson Bevens (Cigar Thoughts) to break down the Seahawks' 21–19 loss to the Rams — a game that somehow stayed close despite four interceptions from Sam Darnold and a red-zone drought. Brady calls it Darnold's first true "stinker" as a Seahawk, noting that none of the INTs were flukes, while Jacson credits a defense that "played its balls off" despite brutal field position. The trio discuss the seriousness of rookie guard Gray Zabel's knee injury, the need for Kubiak to scheme around an unstable interior line, and Darnold's growing turnover trend (now 14 on the year). Mitch welcomes back CBS College Football Analyst Rick Neuheisel, presented by Taco Time Northwest, to unpack a chaotic Week 12 in college football — starting with Rick's victory lap on his perfectly predicted Penn State cover. From there, the guys dive into a jam-packed headline wheel: Lane Kiffin's status as the hottest name on the coaching carousel (and why Rick believes he'll land at Florida), Georgia's dominance over Texas, Oklahoma's big win in Tuscaloosa, Texas A&M's shocking 30–3 comeback, and the SEC's suddenly muddled playoff picture. Mitch revisits Episode Zero — the never-meant-to-be-public "exhibition game" that quietly launched Mitch Unfiltered back in 2018. What begins as a joke about their faux–"Fool in the Rain" theme song turns into a hilarious, chaotic retelling of the infamous team-bus-fire in Auburn, complete with blown tires, smoke pouring into the cabin, players stampeding into a ditch, and the bus erupting in flames seconds after everyone escaped.   GUESTS   Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Former Head Coach & Rose Bowl Champion Jason Hamilton | Former/Original Co-host of Mitch Unfiltered, UW Basketball Analyst   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Four Picks, One Big Contract, and a Gordon Lightfoot Birthday — Episode 358 Runs the Emotional Gauntlet 15:05 | BEAT THE BOYS - Register at MitchUnfiltered.com 20:29 | Bad Clock, Bad Knees, and Bad Ballots: Seahawks Fall Short While Cal Raleigh Gets Robbed in the AL MVP Race 37:09 | GUEST: Seahawks No-Table; Four Picks, One Chance: Seahawks Fall to Rams but Defense Shines Bright 55:28 | GUEST: Rick Neuheisel; Lane Kiffin Heat Check, SEC Bedlam & 300-Yard Burrito Winners — Neuheisel Goes Deep 1:20:56 | GUEST: Jason Hamilton EPISODE ZERO | Flashback | Before Episode 1: The Bus Fire, the Scentsy Pooh Era, and the Birth of Mitch Unfiltered 1:41:17 | Other Stuff Segment: Julio Rodríguez finishes 6th in AL MVP voting and makes first-team All-MLB, Julio's slow first half vs red-hot second half and fans overreacting, Julio's contract MVP/top-10 voting escalators, Shohei Ohtani's unanimous NL MVP and historic MVP + championship combo, Clippers fan jukes arena security during game and heckle about Clippers' defense, No. 1 national hoops recruit Tyran Stokes transferring to Rainier Beach High School, BYU's Kennard Davis Jr arrested on suspicion of DUI near campus, Patrick Beverley arrested on family-assault charge in Texas, Percy Harvin's Gainesville home catching fire (no serious injuries reported), United Airlines flight attendant found 10x over in-flight alcohol limit on SFO–London route, Whitesnake frontman David Coverdale announcing retirement, Bin Laden raid SEAL Robert O'Neill suing two podcasters for $25 million over "lied about the shot" claims RIPs: Kenny Easley – Seahawks Hall of Fame safety, "The Enforcer."

Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver step up to the plate this week with an episode built around one of the biggest moments on Raw in years. John Cena finally added the last piece he needed to become a Grand Slam Champion, and the guys dig into why this achievement hits differently, how long it took, and why the reaction backstage and on screen says more than people realize. From there, the show widens into the chaos surrounding the episode itself. Sean's airline saga, government shakeups, and strange political side stories all collide with Kevin's real time reactions to bills, subsidies, and behind-the-scenes motives that never seem to make the headlines. It's a slice of real life filtered through two guys who have seen every angle. Nash then shifts into wrestling mode, breaking down the logic of the matches on Raw, the storytelling choices that led to Cena's moment, and the small pieces of booking that could have shifted everything. They talk about Logan Paul, CM Punk, War Games build, and the surprising elements that did not get addressed on camera. It's a rare dive into how a live show lands from the perspective of someone who has lived it. The conversation stretches into the state of titles today, what a championship means in an era of injuries and constant resets, and why certain performers are thriving while others are stalling. Kevin opens up about the psychology behind working "big," how talent reads the room, and why certain characters click instantly while others struggle to stick. Layer in some NBA talk, baseball economics, Bigfoot sightings, CPAP issues, cannabis taxes, and classic Nash storytelling, and "Grand Slam" becomes a ride that never stops curving. It's fast, sharp, honest, and filled with the kind of insight and humor only these two can pull off.

A JetBlue flight made an emergency landing in Tampa, Florida, on Thursday after suffering a flight control issue en route from Cancun, Mexico, to New Jersey. Jet Blue and the FAA said the plane experienced a sudden drop in altitude, resulting in injuries to some passengers. The airline did not disclose the number of injured parties or the severity of their injuries. Local media quoted Tampa Fire Rescue as saying that around 15 to 20 people were taken to hospitals with injuries that were not life-threatening.To celebrate Halloween, the White House opened its gates on Thursday to younger guests. President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump greeted trick-or-treaters on the South Lawn. Children, parents, and families got to meet the first couple and collect full-sized candy bars.

We start with how Death & Co. is disrupting hotel design by introducing a bar-first hotel brand that fuses nightlife and stay experiences. Next, we examine why airlines are moving to premium, with JetBlue announcing a domestic first-class cabin in 2026 and what that signals for hospitality brands in guest segmentation and experience. Then, we dive into how Mews is acquiring an AI firm to simplify hotel data usage and streamline operations. We also review how IHG Hotels & Resorts is expanding its soft brand strategy amid its strongest-ever pipeline, and what it means when Accor confirms a potential IPO for its lifestyle division Ennismore.

This week, Mike Zaccheo and moderator Justin Walter dive deep into Delta SkyMiles after highlighting an inspiring post from Karen, a solo traveler in her 60s who completed a 3-week, around-the-world business- and first-class trip using 326K AA and Virgin miles plus $8.2K in cash for a journey valued at ~$22K. Her itinerary spanned NYC, Tel Aviv, Paris, Tokyo, and Phoenix, with smooth connections, Hyatt stays on points, and carry-on-only travel. She earned 38K miles back and proved that with planning, persistence, and a good points strategy, major bucket-list trips are possible at any age.In the news, Citi launched the new AAdvantage Globe Mastercard, while Hyatt refreshed its personal card offer . JetBlue announced Mosaic status changes for 2026—more benefits for top elites but fewer perks for lower tiers—while SkyTeam expanded lounge access to 70+ domestic lounges, excluding Delta's own Elite Plus members. The main topic explored how Delta SkyMiles has evolved into a dynamic, spend-based loyalty program where Amex partnerships play a key role. Although miles never expire, the lack of an award chart creates unpredictable pricing, making partner bookings (Air France, Virgin Atlantic) and flash sales the best value opportunities. The hosts discussed Delta's Medallion tiers, MQD rules, and the shifting role of Sky Clubs as Amex access limits tighten, noting that Delta increasingly positions itself as a “premium brand.” Their advice: always compare award prices across partner programs before redeeming and also evaluate miles vs cash prices.Links To Topics DiscussedNew Citi AAdvantage Globe CardHyatt Credit Card Offer with Double Elite NightsJetBlue Elite Status ChangesSkyTeam Elite Lounge Access ChangesWhere to Find Us The Award Travel 101 Facebook Community.

Another week down and the madness continues as we try and avoid the insanity. Nate fills us in on a few of the delays of a recent trip. This leads us down a rabbit hole of the JetBlue landing back in 08. This leads us down a weird rabbit hole of Utah, religion, and a few other conversations. Sam joins filling us in on the weekend as well as a few other fun tidbits with life. We take a quick moment to take a look at what's going on before we get into the Louvre heist the other day. This leads down to the idea of film heists as well as tv shows. We finally take a last second dive into a Star Wars film that was shutdown from the big mouse. Hopefully everyone is staying safe out there.
