Hawk Rock Talk: Rock Autopsy - Classic Rock One Hit Wonders, Volume 2Jason Gore and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock return to the classic rock morgue for another examination of the songs that radio refused to let die.But what exactly makes a classic rock one-hit wonder? A song does not necessarily have to dominate the Billboard charts. Sometimes one regional program director simply decides that “Never Been Any Reason” needs to play three times a week until the end of civilization.Jason and Geoff investigate the regional-radio mystery of Head East, the yodeling and whistling science behind Focus, and why every classic rock station needed songs long enough for the DJ to leave the studio and take a dump.They also uncover the interconnected musical universe of Jim Peterik, connecting The Ides of March's “Vehicle” to Survivor, 38 Special, Sammy Hagar and enough Sylvester Stallone montage music to power an entire training facility.Plus: Pete Townshend secretly joins Thunderclap Newman as Bijou Drains, Pilot's “Magic” is permanently converted into an Ozempic commercial, The Knack gives us Weird Al Yankovic, Sugarloaf demands that you stop calling them, Manfred Mann remains responsible for Bruce Springsteen's only number-one songwriting hit, and Free inspires the cheapest crematorium in Val Verde.Most importantly, the episode produces two future Hawk institutions: Morgenson's Crematorium and legendary afternoon radio personality Stanch McTuckens.Support 108.9 The HawkJoin the Patreon for bonus episodes, playlists and more Hawk Rock Talk:patreon.com/1089thehawkHawk Rock Summer is winding down, but Series Seven of 108.9 The Hawk begins Monday, August 17th.Tell your friends.

Today we sit down with an HH-60G Pave Hawk combat search and rescue (CSAR) pilot who flew through some of the worst fighting in Afghanistan, and the single mission that changed how he trains the mind for combat. John "Rain" Waters talks with retired Lt. Col. John Mangan, a decorated CSAR pilot with more than 200 combat missions who commanded the 33rd Expeditionary Rescue Squadron in Kandahar. They get into the leave-no-one-behind ethos, the honey-buns story that got a grounded rescue bird fueled in a combat zone, the command chaos of Operation Anaconda, why wounded troops died on runways waiting for approval to launch, and the Helmand rescue of two dying Marines that became the basis for his book, The Three Rings Mindset. Along the way, the science of why a trained pilot froze into his habits under fire, and how repetition and purpose beat fear.

Today's SWAPA Number is 10. That's the number of subject matter experts and executives that were on the town hall that took place on July 28th. So for this episode, we are providing you an opportunity to hear that town hall in case you missed the live event, during which we posed questions ranging from SWAPA's relationship with the company to where we are with implementation to the status of our move through the strategic plan. It truly had so much in it that we felt it worthy of a second listen.Four questions did not get addressed on air as we ran out of time and can be found below. It seems there are many more 4 day trips and 4 day reserve blocks in elitt then ever before. I know there is a cap on the percentage of 4 days but it seems to be growing each month. What is causing this? The number of 4-day pairings in the system has increased from ~18% to 20% of the pairing mix which is due to a multitude of reasons, but the increase in ELITT is a combination of vacation shifting to drop more, training bidding + a longer training footprint this year which can lead to two pairings being dropped on each side (whereas the last contract they optimized to the lowest cost/trip pull). Each category is unique, but the upgrade schedule this year has been aggressive so some bases see a full month of pulls to send Pilots to training. In addition, Crew Planning has increased the number of blank lines which means more 4-day pairings get pulled from blank lines for the above reasons that then fall directly into MOT and ELITT opening.   How much does it cost to have the ELITT Red-Filter to actually work?  “Cost" may be difficult to pin down, but there will be additional filtering available across systems in CWA between now and ongoing modernization efforts. Some of the disconnect right now is that there is the contractual definition of "red-eye" which encompasses flights that operate across 0200 domicile time, whereas there are "enterprise red-eyes" that launch after 0200 domicile time, so the CWA system doesn't flag those as "red-eye". We've said multiple times that this is causing confusion and hopefully we'll make progress over time with additional filtering logic that will include all variations of red-eye operations.  If a SWAPA rep were to seek and be hired for a job at HQ SWA, would one open up at SWAPA? Do we have any language in our bylaws to prohibit this or anything planned?  Short answer: yes, a position would open up, but no, we don't have anything on the books that stops someone from taking that job in the first place. The mechanism is our Constitution that defines membership classes based on who you work for and in what capacity. If a Pilot moves into a management, executive, or supervisory role at Southwest, they're no longer classified as an Active Member — they become an Executive Member. Executive Members aren't eligible to hold elected or appointed positions in SWAPA, period. So in the event that job offer is accepted, that person is no longer eligible to serve at SWAPA in any capacity. The vacancy gets filled the same way we fill any other vacancy as outlined in the Constitution.  While we don't have an enforceable rule that says SWAPA personnel can't apply for or accept a management job at Southwest like you're describing, Section 10, Appendix A of the Policy Manual speaks to the Code of Ethics and Conduct Policy. This 'pledge' in paragraph IV says (in part) that no individual covered by this policy may accept a supervisory position within Southwest Airlines or its subsidiaries for a period of at least twenty-four (24) months following the completion of SWAPA service.  So it's not a fully closed loop. It's a fair thing to raise, and it's exactly the kind of item our Constitution Review Committee reviews every year before the May Board meeting. If the membership wants stronger language here, that's the process to bring it forward, and we'd encourage anyone who feels strongly about it to push it through their Domicile Rep for attention.  Regarding sick leave buyback, is this something the company really wants, the membership, or a combination of both?  We can't speak for the Company, but from the membership side, the appetite for a sick leave buyback was seen in Leading Edge 2.0 back in March. The open ended in person interviews we conducted and the online surveys revealed the membership's interest in such a program, characterized best as “tell me more about it.”  The Benefits and Leaves Survey sought to gain more insight from the membership. The Education was a deep dive into the pros, cons, industry comparisons, and it's potential relationship with disability and sick accrual. The polling results will drill down exactly where the membership is sitting – including what the parameters are for having one at all.If you have any feedback for us at all, please drop us a line at comm@swapa.org or tap here to send us a text.Follow us online:Twitter - https://twitter.com/swapapilotsFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/swapa737

If you're a longtime Radio 4 listener, you'll know the important place that quizzes occupy in the schedule. That's why listeners have been in touch with Feedback to share their thoughts about a range of pilots for new quizzes that could potentially find a home on the network. Andrea Catherwood hears your views and talks to two hotshot quizzers - one a Mastermind champion - who give their opinions on whether or not these pilots get top marks. Radio 1 has announced a round of changes to the station's schedule and presenter line-up, with some on-air talent due to leave the station later this year. One listener shares what these changes mean to her, and Andrea talks to Sarah Carson, Chief Culture Writer and Contributing Editor at the i Paper, who gives her analysis on what they signify for Radio 1 in the long run. And following last week's interview with Evan Davis about his new series Common Ground, we hear from listeners who were disappointed to know that the opportunity for Evan to travel around the UK will be limited by budget cuts.

Ever wonder if your “safe” cash is actually holding you back? In this episode, Ryan answers a listener's question from a pilot who has built up $150,000 in cash but is hesitant to move it because of the security it provides. He explains the difference between liquidity and leaving too much money idle. Stick around to find out if your cash strategy is helping, or quietly hurting, your future. Here's what we cover in this episode:

Karsten Dusse, Autor der erfolgreichen „Achtsam morden“-Reihe, ist ein Mann mit vielen Facetten – und einer, der alles, was er anpackt, mit voller Hingabe macht. Bevor er zum Bestsellerautor wurde, war er unter anderem Rechtsanwalt, Pilot, Fluglehrer, Moderator und Comedy-Autor. Sein neuer Roman „Filmriss auf Immenhof“ spielt auf dem legendären Immenhof, bekannt aus den kultigen Filmen der 1950er-Jahre, darunter „Die Mädels vom Immenhof“. Kristian Thees hat sich mit Karsten direkt am originalen Schauplatz getroffen und über die Inspirationen zu seinem neuen Roman gesprochen – aber natürlich auch über den großen Erfolg von „Achtsam morden“. Dabei ging es unter anderem um ungewöhnliche Achtsamkeitsübungen, die Bedeutung des Schreibens, das ihn schon früh begleitet hat, und die Geschichte, wie er während seines Jurastudiums ein Referat in Gedichtform hielt. Außerdem verfasst Karsten im Gespräch sein erstes Elfchen. Podcasttipp: „Udo. Ein Leben an der Grenze“ https://www.ardsounds.de/sendung/udo-ein-leben-an-der-grenze/urn:ard:show:2c0e4a243b0dd157/

Nuclear fusion holds the promise of almost limitless, carbon-free energy -- but the technology has long been dismissed as always decades away. That may now be changing, though. Real money is pouring into the industry. Pilot projects are planned. An increasing number of lawmakers are warming to the idea. But fusion's supporters said they still need more help from Washington to scale. POLITICO's Joe Schatz lays out the hopes, the obstacles and the political asks of the budding U.S. nuclear fusion industry.

A dedicated audio lesson assumes you cannot see anything and therefore goes into detail with metaphors and audible descriptions of the images in our course.    If you don't want to wait each week for the new lesson, or you don't want to hear ads... you can get ALL our audio lessons, ad free and download them to your device with our VIP podcast:

The Institute of Internal Auditors Presents: All Things Internal Audit In this episode, we're moving past the hype and getting into how internal audit functions are using GenAI now -- not in theory, not in three years, but today.

White shares the framework he uses to prioritize AI investments, why building a prompt library is the most underrated action any function can take immediately, and what he believes internal audit will look like in 10 years.

Malcolm Hoenlein and Thaddeus McCotter turn to Lebanon's attempt to establish humanitarian pilot zones where the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) replace withdrawing Israeli troops. Critics argue this model mirrors the failed Gazadisengagement, as Hezbollah remains entrenched and unwilling to disarm. Additionally, Hoenlein discusses a recent Ukrainian attack on an Iranian vessel in the Caspian Sea, which signals a dangerous expansion of the regional conflict that may have broader retaliatory implications for the future.

No pilots in the family. No money for it. So he enlisted in the Navy out of high school in 1995 — not the optimal path to fighters — flew P-3 Orions as an enlisted aircrewman on counter-drug ops over Panama and Colombia, and worked his way into a commission. He selected #1 out of T-34s, got the Super Hornet, and flew combat over Iraq and Afghanistan.Now he's an Airbus first officer (by design), an FAA examiner with roughly 700 checkrides behind him, an aircraft management guy specializing in the Piaggio, and he runs upset recovery training in the L-39. He also raced at Reno in the gold jet class at 500 mph, four to six feet off another airplane — until he watched his friend and competitor Aaron Hoag G-LOC and go into the ground in front of him in 2022.We get into:Why enlisting first was a risk he'd take againWhat a Navy flight surgeon prescribed when Pete was struggling in T-45s (hint: Halo)Being shot off a carrier deck, and why nothing else comparesFighter pilot ego vs. actual humility — and why humility can't read as weaknessWhat air racing really takes: micro-knots, wake vortices, and why pole position changes everythingLosing Aaron, "stem power," and how he got the jet on the groundWhy the DPE shortage isn't a DPE problem, it's an FAA problemWhat he can read about an applicant in the first two minutesHonesty, knowledge, determination — his three traits of a good captain, FO, or wingmanExposing your kids to aviation without pushing it"When we get in an airplane, we're in a survival situation.

Welcome back to True Blue Conversations, where we preserve the stories of the men and women who have shaped Australias history through service, sacrifice, and resilience. Todays guest is nothing short of extraordinary. Henry Young is one of the last living links to the Greatest Generation. At an incredible 102 years of age, Henry served as a Royal Air Force Spitfire pilot during the Second World War, taking to the skies at a time when courage was measured not in words, but in actions. He belonged to a generation of young men who answered the call without hesitation, knowing every mission could be their last. But Henrys remarkable life didnt end when the war was over. Returning home, he forged an outstanding career as a professional tennis player, proving that the determination and discipline that carried him through combat also drove him to excel in sport. His life has spanned more than a century of extraordinary change, from the darkest days of World War II to the modern world we know today. In this conversation, well explore Henrys childhood, his decision to become a fighter pilot, the realities of flying the legendary Spitfire in wartime, the mateship and sacrifices of those who never returned, and how he rebuilt his life after the war through professional tennis. Well also reflect on the lessons hes learned across more than 100 years of life—lessons on resilience, purpose, gratitude, and what it truly means to serve something greater than yourself. It is an absolute privilege and honour to welcome one of the last surviving World War II Spitfire pilots.

Welcome to the Part Time Pilot Audio Ground School Podcast! This podcast was created to help student pilots learn their ground school during their busy schedules.    These audio lessons were created as Dedicated Audio... meaning they are not just the audio from one of our video lessons because video audio would assume that you can see the video visuals. A dedicated audio lesson assumes you cannot see anything and therefore goes into detail with metaphors and audible descriptions of the images in our course.    If you don't want to wait each week for the new lesson, or you don't want to hear ads... you can get ALL our audio lessons, ad free and download them to your device with our VIP podcast:

We're diving into Pioneer Day food traditions — what's on your table tomorrow and how is it different from July 4th? Speaking of Utah icons, the giant pickle mascot in LaVerkin is finally getting a real name, and the city wants the public's help choosing it. Alex and Richie go through the latest suggestions. Then, a Spanish pilot pulled the ultimate prank on a plane full of Argentina soccer fans — tricking them into thinking they'd won the World Cup before dropping the real result. Was it hilarious or over the line? The morality police are debating. Plus, a scary story out of the Animal Kingdom: a 3-year-old was bitten by a rattlesnake that was hiding under an Amazon package.    KSL Brightside streams live weekdays 12–3 PM.

Malcolm Hoenlein and Thaddeus Marta. An experiment with "pilot zones" in southern Lebanon involves Israeli troop withdrawals and replacement by the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) to dismantle Hezbollah infrastructure. In Washington, 103 Democrats signed a resolution to deny aid to Israel, a move Hoenlein attributes to political intimidation rather than violations of law. Furthermore, a reported detention of Ro Khanna in a military zone was characterized as a "concocted" confrontation. (6)1968

David Daoud. Israel has begun a phased withdrawal from southern Lebanon, testing whether the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) can effectively disarm Hezbollah in "pilot zones." David Daoud expresses skepticism, noting Lebanon is already attempting to backtrack on its legal commitments and reverse agreed-upon sequences. Success depends on whether the U.S. will hold Lebanon's feet to the fire or permit Israel to retake territory if the LAF fails. (16)2012

The last of our recordings from Indiana Comic Convention, Bryan Young and Holly Frey lead a discussion about The Acolyte and what led to its cancellation and what we'd like to see from its future and what its legacy would be.
