40 Trips to France: Plus a French Christmas Feast with Annie & Elyse opens with host Annie Sargent welcoming back longtime traveler Janice Chung, who has now visited France 40 times. This episode explores why France keeps calling people back and how repeat travel changes the way you experience the country. Listen to this episode ad-free Janice explains why France feels like home to her. She talks about slowing down, speaking French even when it's imperfect, and choosing experiences over checklists. She shares how she plans trips around things that excite her. Sometimes it's a race, like the Adidas 10K in Paris. Sometimes it's a scenic train ride in the Ardèche. Other times it's simply walking for hours and letting the day unfold. Annie and Janice discuss favorite regions, especially lesser-known places like the Aveyron. They talk about beautiful villages, local food like aligot, and why these areas remain less touristy. Janice also explains how she mixes trains, rental cars, biking, and walking depending on where she goes. This episode also looks at how France has changed over the decades. Janice remembers dirtier streets, heavier smoking, and more car traffic. Today, she notices cleaner cities, contactless payments everywhere, and easier trip planning thanks to technology. Prices have gone up, especially in Paris, but great value still exists outside major cities. The episode ends with a festive magazine segment. Annie Sargent and Elyse Rivin talk about French Christmas traditions. They cover chocolate, foie gras, oysters, cheese, bûche de Noël, and how bakeries prepare for the holidays. It's practical, warm, and very French. If you love real conversations about travel, food, and life in France, this episode is for you.

The last full week of work in 2025 comes to an end today! We'll be around next Monday through Wednesday, but we'll both be off on Christmas & the day after. Same thing the following week for New Year's. In the news this morning, an absolute tragedy involving NASCAR Champion Greg Biffle & his family as they all died in a plane crash yesterday along with three others. Also in the news, the Brown University shooter has been found dead in NH, Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan was found guilty of obstruction. And in more positive news…the $1.5 Billion Powerball drawing is tomorrow! To talk a bit more about the Greg Biffle disaster, we got Doc on the phone just after 8am, thanks to County Materials in Holmen. Elsewhere in sports, Week 16 in the NFL kicked off last night with a thrilling win in overtime for the Seahawks, the Bucks lost to the Raptors last night, the Badger volleyball team's run to a championship came to an end at the hands of Kentucky last night, and the Badger men's basketball team takes on Villanova tonight in Milwaukee. We also talked about the Bowl Game schedule and the entertainment at February's NBA All-Star weekend. Plus, more details about the firing of Ohio University's coach, and the details on next year's "Patriot Games". We let you know what's on TV and in theaters this weekend, and if you're planning on traveling for the holidays…here's some solid advice from the TSA. Discussed some of the worst gifts to get during the holidays. Had a story about a grandmother in Virginia who's trying to track down a woman who performed life-saving CPR on her back in November after she suffered a heart attack while in a park. And God bless strippers! They do the Lord's work! And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a guy on the run from the cops who hid in a nativity scene, a trucker who found a bunch of cocaine in his truck, a grocery store in Montreal that was robbed by a bunch of people dressed as Santas & elves, a baby Jesus statue from a town's nativity scene was stolen & then returned, and a former trooper in Missouri admitted trying to find nude pics on the phones of women he'd pull over.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

(but thanks for that quote anyway). Hosted by Klein, Ally, and a cast of weirdos (both on the team and from their audience), the show is known for its raw, offbeat style, offering a mix of sarcastic banter, candid interviews, and an unfiltered take on everything from culture to the chaos of everyday life. With a loyal, engaged fanbase and an addiction for pushing boundaries, the show delivers the perfect blend of humor and insight, all while keeping things fun, fresh, and sometimes a little bit illegal. 2024 © 2021 Audacy, Inc.

Liam Morris '23 manages one of the most complex corners of United Airlines — airport operations quality control across more than 80 stations spanning Latin America, Central America and the Southwest U.S. In this conversation, he shares how early travel experiences opened the door to a career in aviation, the path that led him from loading bags in El Paso to overseeing global safety audits, and what it takes to lead with precision, clarity and calm under pressure.Liam also reflects on United's customer-centric transformation, the moments that shaped his commitment to the industry, and how the Rice Online MBA gave him the flexibility and confidence to grow as a leader while navigating an ever-moving, always-on operational world.Episode Guide:00:00 Introduction to Aviation and Role at United Airlines00:29 Ensuring Safety and Compliance in Airport Operations02:56 Passion for Aviation and Early Influences06:08 Managing Multiple Stations and Time Zones08:00 Why United Airlines Stands Out12:16 Best Flight Experience and Customer Insights13:54 Decision to Pursue an MBA at Rice19:58 Mutual Learning and Decision Making22:27 Leadership Growth and Student Association26:47 Career Journey and Future Goals30:02 Travel Tips and Flying Etiquette37:19 Conclusion and FarewellThe Owl Have You Know Podcast is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode QuotesFrom cleaning planes to leading global operations25:34: I never, ever envisioned that I would be where I'm at now, and I can honestly say from when I was a business partner with United — cleaning aircraft and loading bags for another company, right — but working the United product, I never had a plan to get to where I was. My internship with United came up out of nowhere, and I moved to Jersey. Then, midsummer, I got a full-time offer to stay, and I transferred schools. You know, at the very last minute, I went up to Rutgers from UT El Paso. And then, you know, an opportunity came to transfer to Dallas, and there I ended up. You know, our CEO lives there. Ended up meeting him and a lot of executives all the time, and my name got out there really great. And then I came down to Houston to go to Rice as an assistant manager here in the airport. Then I finished my B.A. and went into the current role that I'm at, which is safety and regulatory. I can honestly say I never really had a plan to get where I was, but I'm thankful that I was always willing to walk through the door, because every single opportunity that I've had — both promotion and a lateral — was a great move, and it was such an instrumental, pivotal move.On being part of something bigger than yourself04:06: I wanted the ability to be in an industry where I am a part of something bigger, right? And being a part of an airline is really cool because even though, you know, my work now may not directly affect a flight leaving on time out of here, it does affect the customer experience some way. So I just wanted to be a part of a really, really big machine that gets people where they need to go.Show Links: TranscriptGuest Profile:Liam Morris | LinkedIn

India’s biggest airline didn’t just stumble, it unravelled. When IndiGo collapsed, thousands were stranded, but the real story runs much deeper. Aviation insiders unpack how ignored fatigue rules, poor planning, and a culture of silence pushed India’s largest carrier into chaos. In this episode, Host Anirban Chowdhury speaks to Capt. Amit Singh of Safety Matters, Ameya Joshi of Network Thoughts, and ET’s Arindam Majumdar to decode how IndiGo’s days-long meltdown exposed deep cracks in pilot planning, safety oversight, and the regulatory system meant to keep flyers safe. Experts explain why new fatigue rules triggered panic, how a shortage of captains spiralled into mass cancellations, and whether the crisis was mismanaged or engineered. A revealing look at monopolistic power, weak checks, and what happens when a dominant airline pushes the limits.You can follow Anirban Chowdhury on his social media: X and LinkedinCheck out other interesting episodes from the host like ET in the Valley: Grant Lee, Co-Founder & CEO of Gamma, ET in the Valley: Databricks Co-founder Patrick Wendell, ET in the Valley: Replit Founder and CEO Amjad Masad, ET in the Valley: ElevenLabs Co-Founder Mati Staniszewski and much more.

The Federal Aviation Administration expected this Thanksgiving travel season to be the busiest in 15 years. We speakk with 5 On Your Side's Keely Arthur about how to best prepare for travel turbulence you may experience when flying. 

Andrew Herr, founder and CEO of FlyKitt, breaks down the science behind jet lag and how his system helps travelers feel dramatically better after flying. He's worked with Navy SEALs, business executives, and pro athletes at Inter Miami. From explaining how cabin pressure and low oxygen trigger inflammation to why most travel hacks get circadian rhythm timing wrong, Andrew shows how FlyKitt helps over 90% of travelers beat jet lag on both long-haul and short-haul flights. He shares what he's learned from coaching elite performers and why everyday travelers lose 20–40% of a trip just trying to feel normal again.
