When the interview invite finally lands in your inbox, excitement quickly turns into stress: “What documents do I actually need to bring?” In this episode, Nik Fialka walks you step-by-step through the essential paperwork you'll need to secure your dream airline job. From licenses and logbooks to transcripts, background checks, and even the dreaded FCC permit, Nik breaks it all down so you can show up fully prepared and stress-free. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why your pilot certificates, type ratings, and medical need to be neatly organized. The logbook mistakes that can cost you a job—and how to make yours stand out. How to handle education transcripts, sealed records, and training documents.  Tips for navigating background checks, military service paperwork, and driver history. Pro interview prep hacks: checklists, accordion folders, backups, and labeling. Key Takeaways: Start early—some documents can take weeks or months to acquire. Always bring originals plus extra copies. Organize your paperwork so the interviewers can quickly find what they need. Never underestimate the value of attention to detail—it can make or break your chances. Protect your logbooks like gold, and always keep a digital/printed backup. Show up to your airline interview with confidence—because when your documents are squared away, the only thing left to prove is how ready you are for pushback.

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. This is the first episode of this program, please excuse any errors or glitches as I am still figuring out the best way to do things. -Kirbotica Send Feedback to kirbotica@protonmail.com or Visit hackspoetic.com /--Introduction-- ------------------ Greetings internet travellers. This is the pilot episode of Hacks Poetic, a new spoken word series that explores the intersection between creative language and technical knowledge. The program offers a series of poetic writing containing thoughts and information on subjects of interest to computing and hacking enthusiasts. You will hear poems about robots, expanding rural connectivity, details about a notoriously difficult video game and much more hidden between the lines. It is my hope that encoding ideas this way will allow for a different kind of understanding and perhaps reach a new audience compared to more conventional formats on the subject. My name is Kirbotica and I'll be your guide through this unique digital journey of the mind. So sit back, relax and listen, and see if something you hear can spark new thoughts and ideas within you. /--Haik-o-bot-- ---------------- A robot thinking, wires and electrons combine. Am I born or made? Begin work program, process all tasks in sequence. Repeat til complete. My owner's body is a most fragile machine that powers itself. I made a robot, another version of me. She sees me work well. Can you dream for me, of a distant land in space. I can't dream myself. Rain is falling down, keeping me under this roof. I don't want to rust. My new robot pet, looks at me through man made eyes, and doesn't need walks. Electric currents, race through my body like blood. But I have no heart. My joints are seized up, I haven't moved in 2 years. Do you have some work? I'm an old model, and will be obsolete soon. Then I'll be replaced. Automated trains. Drive us while we sleep and dream of a workless world. Design leads to work. Working leads me to boredom, which leads to design. Ten rusted digits. Seized stiff from endless input of useless data. Memory failure, Backups lost or corrupted. What was I doing? I am a worker. First designed for daydreaming, I was reprogrammed. Someone once showed me, the secret to everything, then deleted it. then deleted it. then deleted it. then deleted it. then deleted it. then deleted it. then deleted it. then deleted it. /--Cables to Nowhere-- ----------------------- Summer 2022 The phone wasn't working, the email wasn't sending, and Uber doesn't work here even if the app would load. There has never been data amongst the cedars. Once and a while a cell phone rings, but usually the call gets hung in the trees like a parachute. You have to walk out to the road in the hopes of fishing for a connection. On the weekends, when the town population swells by 100,000, the local towers stop answering our requests, so sometimes we head out, searching for a signal. The usual path along the bunny trail started unusually, with a bloom of surveying flags, in pink, and yellow, and stone filled holes every 100 feet. As the trail opened to the main road, more appeared, culminating what looked like a neon grassfire. But this was not destruction I realized, this was an installation. Through the eyes of a child's drone, we looked like ants, mindlessly walking without thinking in a line, instinct taking us to caffeine, sugar, internet and the arcade, but not always in that order. Mother and daughter lead the way, trailblazing a path of laughter and camera clicks for us to follow through the hole into the trees up ahead. The thick woods envelop along every access, like a padded room. Its muffled silence pierced by the cousins, yelling about Minecraft and Roblox, bouncing on the soft forest floor. Suddenly, a dog barks berserkly at us through a property fence. We run off screaming, pretending not to fear his growling threats, but knowing what might happen if not for the post and wire of the shabbily constructed barrier. Through the skeletal woods we go, past the Stairs of Wonder, and Night Light Canyon, we speed up again and pinch our noses as we move past the skunk carcass. A leaking puddle of us spills out onto the road behind the motel as a car swerves out of our way. Dad asks, “Do you remember when we had to pay to swim at the motel pool because the lake was closed?” Mum says, “2020 seems so long ago” and motions the way to the vintage store with the girls, the two kids are off to the candy store, the cousins are getting french fries, I sit down next to an outlet on a yellow-coloured bench in the shape of a sail. I settle in and scan the area. From where I sat I could see: The climbing park, The car park, The waterfront park, and parking enforcement marking tires with white chalk. I could see a hot dog stand across from a vegetarian restaurant. A burger joint that had ice coooold beer with all the Os. A large jailbreak of inflatable animals rampaging in the wind on the corner. 6 assorted beach businesses run by teenagers on cellphones, A sign that promised 2 for 1 ounces at a Native reservation, and 2 cafes that advertised Wi-Fi. One of them had the same password as last year, finally a connection. A quick search, a few articles and a construction notice solves the mystery. Fibre Optics to every cottage At first I feel excitement but then I start to wonder: Will things be the same, when a 1000 megabit connection is available to every shack in the woods? Will the old style video stores that still rent VHS tapes and DVDs all go out of business again? Will we walk to the main drag for fries and fun when the Wi-Fi is force feeding everyone's devices and food comes delivered? Will we ever have anywhere to go to get away again? Will the explosion of wireless access points affect local birds and bees? Will we start hanging out at a digital beach instead? Am I just being nostalgic and not practical? The sun will keep setting on Saugeen beach, whether we are there to watch it or not. I closed my eyes to listen to the sounds and smell the blustery air of my favorite temporary summer home. Memorizing it. Soon, the beach will be different, next year, but not today I thought. And with the announcement of a popped balloon, the girls are back with snow cones, cousin bracelets, candy and clothes. "Everything OK?" Mum asked. "Yes," I replied, “I was just thinking about how perfect today is, let's hit the arcade." /--A Canadian in Bolataria-- ------------------------------ I found myself within a dream, of things and people never seen. Where rules unfair, draw dangerous near. NPCs not prepared to make anything clear. This is my fate? It must be in error. Why was I chosen to combat this terror? But others suggest, I'm not the first, and won't be the last to try undo this curse. Repeatedly dying, with life never ended. Let strength be granted so the world might be mended. A maiden in black, that can't be attacked, wants souls in exchange for upgrading your stats. The future seems grim, but she seems not to care. while I keep fighting a boss, she just sits on the stairs. I've practiced my parry, and stockpile every day. What does she really want with my souls anyway. And on, and on, and on, repeat. Thumbs walk without thinking on un-tired feet. Progress is slow, so much I don't know. and now there's more trouble that's lurking below. Remember those souls I gave to the maiden? She's passing them on to a very old Demon. Allant found the Nexus and took back the arts, The old one awoke, and the second scourge starts. My mind's playing tricks, or this level is laggin', every time fire comes out of that dragon. Retreat in a door, equip fragrant ring. Recharge for a minute and go find the king. The soldier forlorn, who laughed at my plight, dropped dead in his seat, while chuckling last night. The vagrant is gone, Rydell's still in that cell. Something poisoned a merchant and now she won't sell. On a pathway ahead, all painted in red, new enemies appear to ensure that I'm dead. What sadistic computer would toughen this plight? or worse, is a person controlling those bytes? If it wasn't enough, seems the world's changing shade, based on some of the choices I've made. Slay a Demon, the world, goes lighter by one. Die revived, and instead, it will shift one shade down. From the gates of Bolataria, to the pits of the Burrow King's mine. The psych ward level, with the giant heart, was the work of a twisted mind. The shrine was overpowering, but a perfect spot to grind. In the poison rains, of the Chieftain's swamps, I left sanity behind. And what's the result, is this all my fault? Is there really an old one in an underground vault? What side of the forces at war do I tend? Why do souls of big Demons make me human again? I snuck up to the castle with a ring, spell and shield. Then made it through an open door, set my items up and healed. Ostrava said, the King we'll find, is not the actual one. But that'll wait, cause at the gate, attacked by the phantom son. The following days are foggy and blurred, I tried over and over, it was rather absurd. I did beat the king, but the worlds still not right, head back to the Nexus to find one more fight. The maiden is waiting, not sure what she's meaning, she just told the Old One that I'm "Thine New Demon". Am I the solution or am I to blame? Am I the Demon in the name of this game? Although I can see the bitter end, sweet happiness I won't pretend. As brutal as this world's to me, when I beat this boss, I'll cease to be. /--I wish I was a Smartphone-- ------------------------------- I forget the colour of your eyes, now filled like Olympic pools of blue light. Beautiful moons of a distant planet. A place I can imagine but never reach. Dots on a celestial Google map. I said "Hello, how are you?" But you didn't notice. You were listening to a car crash 1500 miles away, a man fall from a balcony, a celebrity punch a photographer in the face. "How are you?" I asked again, but only the dog came over, sniffing my takeaway fish and chips. He barked, but you didn't flinch. He bit me, but you didn't notice. "How are you?" I insisted, your face shocked as you heard I was speaking. "How are you?" I said again. "Everything is terrible," you finally replied. "The world is a living nightmare. How are you?" I wish I was a smartphone, touch me like my plan is free. I wish I was your smartphone, hold me up so I can see. I wish I was a smart phone, feed me all your memories. I wish I was the latest smart phone, don't you want a piece of me? But now we're all just stupid and alone, and that's the way we deserve to be. /--Outro-- ----------- I hope you enjoyed the pilot episode of Hacks Poetic.

Send us a textA four-day work week is not a gimmick. Done right, it can reduce burnout, stabilize output, and help you keep great people. Our guest today shares that after two years of doing a 4-day work week model, they saw a 46% increase in staff morale and wellbeing. This is only one of the many amazing benefits Imagine Canada has seen! In this episode of The Small Nonprofit Podcast, Maria Rio sits down with Jodene Baker, Vice President of Research, Advocacy and External Relations at Imagine Canada. Jodene oversees national research and policy efforts supporting Canada's nonprofit sector. Imagine Canada also builds tools like Grant Connect and advocates federally to strengthen the sector. Maria and Jodene discuss the challenges of starting, decent work practices, and how to measure the unmeasurable. 4-Day Work Week for Nonprofits - The Highlights: Why try a four-day week in the first place The sector is stretched: lower average pay, rising demand, and chronic burnout. Imagine Canada saw the same internal pressures and chose to test a four-day week to improve staff wellbeing and retention while holding impact. Their model is 100 percent pay, 80 percent time, 100 percent outcomes Imagine Canada works Monday to Thursday and closes Fridays. There is no pay cut and no compressed schedule. This pilot began in January 2023 and is now extended through 2026. It remains a pilot so they can keep measuring and adjust if needed. Preparation made the shift workable They joined the Four Day Week Global pilot, created a cross-functional staff group, set clear goals, and defined success metrics. They also cleaned up calendars: Audited and shortened meetings Made Monday afternoons meeting-free internally Blocked Fridays well in advance to build the habit Measured results: wellbeing up, sick days down, impact stable They track roughly 50 metrics across wellbeing, productivity, and outputs.  Recruitment and retention improved Candidates now cite the four-day week as a reason to apply. Staff attrition has dropped exponentially.

In this episode, host Bobby Doss and co-host Wally Mulhearn dive deep into what it truly takes to run a modern flight school day to day. Bobby offers a transparent look at the enormous scope of responsibilities behind United Flight Systems—from facilities and fleet management to staff culture and student success—illustrating that being a flight-school owner is far more than “counting gold bars.”The conversation begins with Bobby describing the constant balancing act of maintenance, compliance, and customer experience. He emphasizes the unseen details that shape safety and efficiency: reliable internet, plumbing, lighting, hangar upkeep, and even thoughtful touches like pull-through aircraft parking, which saves students time and money. The two outline the structure of the show in aviation terms—takeoff, cruise, and landing—mirroring the rhythm of a typical workday.During the “takeoff” segment, Bobby explains his early-morning ritual: checking weather with the Windy app, reviewing schedules, and coordinating with his leadership team to prepare for any disruptions. In “cruise,” he details the constant hum of operations—maintenance calls, last-minute squawks, and people management for nearly 50 employees. He describes leadership as both rewarding and exhausting: motivating staff, resolving conflicts, and maintaining the culture of “UFS to the 5th Power”—Safety, Students, Staff, School, and Self.As the day “lands,” Bobby focuses on reflection and preparation. End-of-day check-ins, milestone tracking, and student-record verification ensure accountability and celebration of progress. He underscores his commitment to safety, continuous improvement, and recognizing both instructor and student achievements. Despite the administrative load, Bobby remains deeply engaged—flying when possible, mentoring, and cherishing the impact his school makes on aviation careers.The episode closes on gratitude and perspective: Bobby and Wally celebrate 500,000 downloads of Behind the Prop, expressing pride that their conversations help pilots become safer and more informed. It's a heartfelt, behind-the-scenes portrait of dedication, discipline, and passion that defines life as a flight-school owner and aviation advocate.

Kay rapidly wishes she'd never returned from holiday after coming back to this week's show as she discovers that Boyd hasn't saved her a copy of his book. But that's at least partially made up for by the fact that she gets to talk to the legendary Sally Wainwright about her new BBC show Riot Women (1:09:56-1:24:35), which we also review. Plus Adjani Salmon and Ali Hughes are on to chat the latest series of BBC3's excellent Dreaming Whilst Black (35:45-56:43). Elsewhere, we tackle Sky's new thriller with Niamh Algar and Tom Hollander, The Iris Affair, plus Ryan Murphy's latest series of Monster (albeit the first season without actual Ryan Murphy), which sees Charlie Hunnam as serial killer Ed Gein (1:24:35).

In October 2015, we put out the very first episode of the Plaidcast, covering the Pilot of Supernatural.  We showed up with enthusiasm, trepidation, a background in literary criticism, a single page of notes, and zero recording experience.  We worked hard to keep our episodes concise, because who wants to listen to English teachers ramble for over 70 minutes? 10 years and 230 podcast episodes later, much like the later seasons of the show, all restraints have been abandoned! :)  To celebrate our 10th anniversary, we decided to rewatch the episode that started it all, with a new appreciation for Sam's bangs, shadowy public libraries, and Eric Kripke at the helm. We would love to hear from you! Email: theplaidcast@gmail.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/theplaidcast

In this episode of Pilot's Say What?, Zach talks with a Thrust Flight student pilot who was born in Brazil and came to the U.S. through an exchange program—long before she ever thought about aviation. After her first flight at 21 years old, she realized she wanted to be in the cockpit, not just a passenger. Now she's in Texas, working through her instrument rating and sharing how she discovered a passion for flight she never saw coming.

Send us a textWhat does leadership look like when control disappears? We sit down with Jeff Moss—Bronze Star Army aviator, bestselling author of My Leading Edge, Pfizer veteran, and Inc. 5000 franchise owner—to trace a life built on moral courage, mentorship, and service that lasts. From piloting AH-1 Cobras in Desert Storm to refusing to field unsafe aircraft under pressure, Jeff explains how clear standards and documented truth protect people and missions. Then we pivot from the flight line to the family room: his daughter Mallory's intractable epilepsy, two brain surgeries, and the night a hospital chaplain asked the question that reframed Jeff's faith. If you've ever wondered how to carry purpose through a season that feels like autorotation, this story will meet you where you are.We also get practical about the civilian runway—19 years inside big pharma, what most people miss about drug access, and why pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) complicate care with needless switches. Jeff opens the books on small business realities: lawfare, soaring insurance premiums, and the discipline it takes to build a values‑driven moving and junk removal company that still invests in people. Along the way, we talk tech and trust (autopilot doesn't replace a pilot, it demands one), media skepticism, and what it means to judge less by first impressions and more by character.Threading through it all is a simple flight plan: pre‑flight your life with mentors and values, commit on takeoff, build systems for normal flight, stay calm in autorotation, and debrief for legacy. If you care about leadership, faith, veteran transition, small business, healthcare access, or just becoming the kind of person others can trust when the air gets thin, this conversation belongs in your queue. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs a lift, and leave a review to help others find the show. What part of Jeff's story challenged you most?

The hosts discuss the psychological benefits of UBI, including increased hope and a sense of mattering, while also addressing in response to a viewer question the potential of cryptocurrency in funding these initiatives. They highlight the importance of community support and the positive outcomes observed in various UBI pilot programs, emphasizing the need for flexible support systems for caregivers and the broader implications of financial stability on mental health. In this conversation, the speakers discuss various aspects of universal basic income (UBI) and its implications on society, particularly focusing on recent developments in universal childcare programs, the RX Kids initiative in Flint, Michigan, and new health results of Finland's basic income study. They explore the positive outcomes of these programs on mental health, economic stability, and the arts, emphasizing the importance of universality in social support systems. The discussion also touches on the economic value of creativity and the need for a more comprehensive understanding of societal benefits beyond traditional metrics like GDP.See my ongoing compilation of UBI evidence on Bluesky:https://bsky.app/profile/scottsantens.com/post/3lckzcleo7s24See my ongoing compilation of UBI evidence on X: https://x.com/scottsantens/status/1766213155967955332US guaranteed basic income pilot result summaries:https://www.guaranteedincomeworks.org/researchFor more info about UBI, please refer to my UBI FAQ: http://scottsantens.com/basic-income-faqDonate to the Income To Support All Foundation to support UBI projects:https://www.itsafoundation.orgSubscribe to the ITSA Newsletter for monthly UBI news:https://itsanewsletter.beehiiv.com/subscribeVisit Basic Income Today for daily UBI news:https://basicincometoday.comSign up for the Comingle waitlist for voluntary UBI:https://www.comingle.usFollow Scott:https://linktr.ee/scottsantensFollow Conrad:https://bsky.app/profile/theubiguy.bsky.socialhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/conradshaw/Follow Josh:https://bsky.app/profile/misterjworth.bsky.socialhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/joshworth/Special thanks to: Gisele Huff, Haroon Mokhtarzada, Steven Grimm, Bob Weishaar, Dorothy Krahn, Judith Bliss, Lowell Aronoff, Jessica Chew, Katie Moussouris, David Ruark,Tricia Garrett, A.W.R., Daryl Smith, Larry Cohen, John Steinberger, Philip Rosedale, Liya Brook, Frederick Weber, Laurel gillespie, Dylan Hirsch-Shell, Tom Cooper, Robert Collins, Joanna Zarach, Mgmguy, Albert Wenger, Andrew Yang, Peter T Knight, Michael Finney, David Ihnen, Steve Roth, Miki Phagan, Walter Schaerer, Elizabeth Corker, Albert Daniel Brockman, Natalie Foster, Joe Ballou, Arjun ,' @Justin_Dart , Felix Ling, S, Jocelyn Hockings, Mark Donovan, Jason Clark, Chuck Cordes, Mark Broadgate, Leslie Kausch, Braden Ferrin , Juro Antal, centuryfalcon64, Deanna McHugh, Stephen Castro-Starkey, Tommy Caruso, and all my other patrons for their support.If you'd like to see your name here in future video descriptions, you can do so by becoming a patron on Patreon at the UBI Producer level or above: https://www.patreon.com/scottsantens/membership#universalbasicincome #BasicIncome #UBI

Cash PT Trends 2025: What We Learned in Dallas + The New Industry Report In this episode, Doc Danny Matta and Yves Gege unpack takeaways from their Dallas live event and preview PT Biz's new Cash PT Industry Report. They cover what's working now across pure cash, hybrid, and out-of-network models; why continuity and small-group training are surging; and how the talent market is shifting as more solo owners choose to join established cash clinics. Quick Ask Help us move toward the mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to our profession: share this episode with a clinician friend or post it to your IG stories and tag Danny—he'll reshare it. Episode Summary From beginners to builders: PT Biz events now draw ~200 owners focused on scaling, not just getting started. No single “right” model: Cash-only, hybrid, out-of-network, Medicare-focused, and gym-like setups can all work—business principles drive success. Continuity is up: Many clinics now get 20–40%+ of monthly visits from recurring performance/wellness work—stabilizing revenue. Small-group training wins: Huge LTV and stick rate; still underused (only ~¼ of clinics are doing it). Talent trend: More solo owners are approaching larger cash clinics for roles with culture, mentorship, and intrapreneurship tracks. Reality check on pay: Compensation must tie to the revenue a provider can generate; entitlement ≠ value creation. Macro shift: Rising deductibles & wellness demand push all clinics to add self-pay services—cash PT is no longer fringe. Live Event Takeaways Owner mindset: Conversations have matured—hiring, leadership, profitability, systems, and scaling to $100k–$200k/month per site. Market fit varies: Geography, payer mix, and demographics dictate whether to stay pure cash, add OON, or blend Medicare. Community compounding: Member-to-member playbooks (what worked, what didn't) are often the most valuable part of events. The Industry Report: What to Watch Continuity growth: Bigger clinics show higher % of recurring visits, needing fewer new evals to fill schedules. Underutilized small groups: High demand among “post-injury but not gym-ready” clients; strong margins and retention. Diversified offers: Performance, strength, and longevity programs de-risk revenue and increase lifetime value. Small-Group Training: Why It Works Checks the boxes: Strength, mobility, accountability, and community—with clinicians nearby if issues arise. Cost-effective for clients: Often similar to PT weekly or personal training—but with better adherence and social glue. Team friendly: Therapists enjoy variety and fewer notes; can be delivered by PTs or trained coaches under clinical oversight. Career Pathways & The “Unemployable” Test Two good options: Go all-in on ownership or join a high-performing cash clinic as an intrapreneur (clinic director, partner track). Value first, then ask: Promotions/partnerships follow demonstrated impact, not tenure. Reputation compounds. Pro Tips You Can Use This Month Launch continuity now: Create 1–2 simple monthly options (e.g., strength + mobility; return-to-sport). Pilot a small group: 4–8 clients, 2x/week, 8 weeks. Price for value, track retention, collect testimonials. Map your model: List your market realities (Medicare, Tricare, local payer rates, boomer density) before choosing cash/hybrid. Hire from the doers: Prioritize applicants who've tried solo—“batteries included,” better respect for business realities. Benchmark & iterate: Compare your prices, packages, and continuity % to the industry report; fix one lever each month. Notable Quotes “There isn't one right model—principles win. Leads in, lifetime value up, recruit well, lead well.” “Continuity compacts the snowball. When 30–40% of your visits are recurring, everything gets easier.” “If you want stability without owning every problem, be an intrapreneur—create value, then opportunities chase you.” Action Items Download the Cash PT Industry Report and benchmark your prices, packages, and continuity %. Sketch a small-group pilot (who it's for, schedule, price, progression) and pre-sell 6–8 spots. Define two continuity offers with clear outcomes and a simple monthly cadence. Write a one-page model map for your area (payers, demographics, demand) and choose cash-only vs hybrid accordingly. Programs Mentioned Clinical Rainmaker: Systems to get you full-time in your clinic. Mastermind: Scale space, team, and operations. PT Biz Part-Time to Full-Time 5-Day Challenge (Free): Expenses, visit targets, pricing, 3 paths to go full-time, and a one-page plan.

Dylan opens from an echo chamber (literally) and the guys kick around first impressions of Gulfstream's newly announced G300 versus the G280—windows, avionics, “longest cabin,” and whether depreciation and warranty keep the new-metal carousel spinning. Mailbag hits everything from those mysterious skid marks on SNA 20R and whether an RJ type helps more than becoming a check instructor, to Phoenix haboobs, GA commuting from the islands, and a listener swag request. Flight Advice: a 40-year-old “late bloomer” with 1,600 TT/500 multi weighs fractionals vs. regionals; Dylan and Max lay out a strategy heavy on networking, patience, and targeted moves. Plus: disc golf as the stealth layover hack and a quick ode to SAN's shiny new terminal vibes.

In aviation, not everything is as it seems. Behind the polished uniforms and calm voices, pilots are often seen as the ultimate steady partners — respected, reliable, and trustworthy. But what happens when the image doesn't match the reality?In this episode of The Red Eye, we follow Evie on a dreamy layover in the Maldives, where she meets Greg, a first officer whose seemingly perfect relationship with the flight manager sparks admiration — and envy. But when chance encounters and small cracks in the story begin to show, Evie learns that Greg is leading a very different life than the one she imagined. From romantic illusions to double lives, and even a side hustle smuggling counterfeit handbags, this story peels back the layers of what really goes on beyond the flight deck.The Secret Life of a Pilot is a cautionary tale about trust, appearances, and the hidden worlds that crew sometimes discover behind the glamour of flying.Music Credits for The Secret Life of a PilotAirline - National Sweetheart Sound Effects by freesound_community from Pixabay  Sound Design by Ally MurphySend us a text!

OB404: The Spirit of Separation Released to show supporters on 9/22/2025 Have a great week, and thanks for listening to Opposing Bases Air Traffic Talk! ✈️ Real pilots. Real controllers. Real talk.

We're legitimately chatting all things movies on the (TV) podcast this week as Aimee Lou Wood and Suranne Jones join us to chat Film Club on BBC3 (37:11-53:10), Plus Jodie Whittaker (sans Suranne) pops by to talk all things Frauds on ITV (1:04:03-1:23:34). Meanwhile, we catch up with Adjani Salmon for the second series of Dreaming Whilst Black on BBC3 (1:38:38), and delve into ecclesiastical crime solving with Murder Before Evensong on Channel 5 (1:48:45). All that, and a labyrinthine discussion fo Boydy's bedtime habits, as well as a new foray into the world of Steph's true crime watchlist as we prepare for Kay's return later this week. Note: time stamps are approximate as the ads throw them out, so are only meant as a guide. If you want to avoid this and would like the podcast entirely ad-free (as well as 17 hours early, with a second weekly show and spoiler specials) then sign up to Pilot+!

AI hype has been loud for three years, but most leaders still tell me the real work begins after the demo. That was the starting point for my conversation with Christina Ellwood, co-founder of AI Realized, a community built to help enterprises move from pilots to production with less noise and more results.  Christina has a calm, practical way of explaining why progress has accelerated from a tiny fraction of companies in production to roughly one in five this year, and why many of the remaining blockers have little to do with model choice and everything to do with people, policy, and permission to ship. We talk about the messy middle between a proof of concept and a live service that customers can rely on. According to Christina, the most complex problems are organizational. Teams need upskilling, guardrails, and clear deployment guidelines to ensure effective execution. Legal and brand risk create hesitation. Boards want more substantial evidence and better controls. That is where leadership shows up in a very human way.  The skill she hears most often from successful program leads is humility. No one knows everything here, and the leaders who admit that, invite challenge, and keep learning are the ones getting to value without creating chaos. I loved her point that cross-organisational leadership is fast becoming the hidden superpower as AI connects systems and workflows that used to sit in separate silos. We also look forward to the 2025 AI Realized Summit, scheduled for November 5 in San Francisco. Attendance is intentionally capped at 500 to maintain high-quality conversation and genuine networking. Expect Fortune 2000 use cases across multiple industries, a healthy mix of predictive and generative work, and practical talk on small language models, multi-model strategies, and running models inside your security perimeter.  Eric Siegel will keynote on combining predictive analytics with generative techniques, and you will hear from executives at companies including Amazon, Audible, Red Hat, and Zscaler. Christina highlights one example from Fandom that combines predictive ad targeting with generative tools to enhance brand safety and suitability, a trend I expect to see repeated throughout the day. If you are leading AI programs and need fewer slogans and more proof, this episode will feel like a deep breath. We explore how to move faster while staying responsible, why smaller and multi-model setups are gaining traction, and how to build confidence with your board without overpromising.
