We talk with a floatplane pilot who flies the de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver commercially. In the news, we look at strategies for modernizing the air traffic control system, striking flight attendants and some who wish they could, and a wingsuit accident takes the life of an ICON Aircraft co-founder. Guest John Crawford flies the de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver commercially on the Canadian West Coast. He began flying Beavers when he was the Chief Pilot and Operations Manager for a company specializing in floatplane training, where he overhauled the training program. In addition to his full-time flying job, John also has a coaching program that helps pilots get their first flying position without the unnecessary and expensive detour of instructing. He helps student pilots with resumes, job search beyond job ads, interview preparation, and more. John Crawford and the de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver. John describes his path to becoming a floatplane pilot, learning to fly, and using taildragger and bush-flying experience. He notes the origin of the Beaver and the challenges of flying a floatplane compared to other aircraft, including obstructions in the water, winds, and docking. John's coaching project started as a proof of concept but has grown to include Canadian, U.S., and international students. We look at his teaching methods, the pattern of floatplane student pilots who do well learning to fly, and how John shows people how to get work. John also provides a valuable perspective on flight instructing in general and how teaching is not for everyone. See John's website, find him on YouTube, and on Instagram. Aviation News The ‘brand new' ATC system might not be as new as you think The National Airspace System today is built on three main software platforms that help transmit flight plan data, collect aircraft position information, and display all of that on the screens of air traffic controllers: the Standard Terminal Automation Replacement System (STARS) used by approach and departure facilities, En Route Automation Modernization (ERAM) used by enroute facilities, and the Advanced Technologies & Oceanic Procedures (ATOPs) used by oceanic facilities in California and New York. The FAA said that combining these three protocols into a single common automation platform would be more efficient. That proposal is a pillar of the administration's ATC modernization plan, and it would cost an estimated $31.5 billion. Instead of replacing STARS, ERAM, and ATOPs, FAA chief Bryan Bedford said the agency is exploring a cheaper way to connect the systems that "will look and feel and act exactly the same" as a common platform without actually being one. "There's technology that we can stick in between ERAM and STARS and ATOPs and the user, you know, a new interface. These interfaces actually exist today. We can take that data, we can re-present it across the users of the NAS." US flight attendants are fed up like their Air Canada peers. Here's why they are unlikely to strike Hourly wages for flight attendants can be very low relative to the cost of living. Some can't afford housing in their home base location and must therefore commute from a lower-cost region. Discontent is amplified when FAs are not paid until the cabin door is open. Airline strikes are rare due to the Railway Labor Act of 1926, amended in 1936 to include airlines. For airline workers to strike, Federal mediators must declare an impasse. But even then, the president or Congress can intervene. Air Canada reaches deal with flight attendant union to end strike as operations will slowly restart Ten thousand Air Canada flight attendants went on strike, but that ended with a tentative deal that includes wage increases and pay for boarding passengers.

Cider Maker and Founder Lee Van DeWater of Pierrepont Cider shares his story in this episode on how he is forages apples to share a taste of terroir from New York's North Country. Lee Van DeWater Foraging Apples for Cider - Sustainable? Lee's cider journey started with childhood memories of sweet cider and apple trees planted by his great-grandfather. But it wasn't until he worked in Montana—buying wine for a co-op that he connected cider and apples through fermentation. Western Cider of Montana help Lee get that spark/idea of a cider life, and the seed was planted. Pierrepont cider is a one-man operation, sourcing apples exclusively within the Little River Watershed. Many of the trees Lee uses are wild seedlings, unknown varieties that thrive in New York's tough climate. He honors the trees, the land, and water, seeing cider as a reciprocal act of love for place. Low-Intervention, High-Expression Lee is self-taught and intentionally minimalist. His ciders are: Wild-fermented Unfiltered Unsulfited Aged in stainless and neutral oak barrels Some of the most memorable ciders come from single trees. Others are blends of just a few wild apples growing together. He tracks everything via GPS and harvests with the patience and perspective of a forager. “The tree that holds its fruit until the first snow, that's climate-controlled storage,” Lee laughs.

In this episode of Where Brains Meet Beauty we meet Kevin Kim the Director of Beauty & Personal Care Investment Banking at Raymond James. His career journey didn't begin with balance sheets and deal rooms it began with medicine.As the oldest son of two psychiatrists, Kevin grew up assuming he'd follow in their footsteps. But by late high school, he realized his path needed to be his own. Drawn to a more global career, he pivoted from pre-med aspirations to business, ultimately landing in investment banking.His early years at Houlihan Lokey provided a crash course in analytics and resilience. But financial services M&A, mortgage servicing rights and insurance deals left him craving work that was more dynamic, more connected to culture. That pivot came when he joined boutique bank Financo in New York, where a chance partnership with beauty M&A legend Vinetta Coleridge introduced him to founder-led brands and the artistry of storytelling in finance.From helping Lily Gordon of First Aid Beauty raise early capital, to later selling the brand to P&G, Kevin learned that beauty transactions are never just about numbers, they're about people. Founders bring vision, quirks, and dreams to the table, and he leaned on skills inherited from his psychiatrist parents: listening deeply, decoding motivations, and helping brands show up as their best selves when it matters most.Today at Raymond James, Kevin has worked on more than 25 beauty deals, guiding brands through capital raises, acquisitions, and exits. He and his team specialize in founder-led businesses, translating brand “sparkle” into financial value while advising buyers on how to preserve the magic post-acquisition. His lens is global covering fragrance booms in Paris, K-beauty trends from Seoul, and indie darlings in Sephora aisles.His leadership style reflects the same ethos: hands-on, people-first, and rooted in immersion. New analysts join him on “Sephora field trips,” learning that to advise in beauty, you must love the category, feel the consumer pulse, and respect its nuances.For Kevin the real thrill isn't just closing a deal it's knowing that a beloved brand has a shot at its next chapter, that founder visions are honored, and that beauty continues to evolve as a global language.Thank you to our sponsor Beauty Connect - get 10% off tickets with code WBMB.

My guest today is Anders M. Greene-Crow. Anders teaches at the Woods College of Advancing Studies and is a former Professor of English at Boston College. More recently, Anders has been preparing for the New York state bar exam, while also co-hosting the podcast “Say Podcast and Die!,” about R.L. Stine's book series, Goosebumps. Today, we are discussing Anders's first book, Austerity Measures: The Poetics of Food Insecurity in Early Modern English Literature (U of Pennsylvania Press, 2025). Austerity Measures is a brilliant intervention in how we read early modern poetry. Crow looks at a range of lyric poets and writers in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, including Thomas Tusser, George Herbert, Robert Herrick, Anne Bradstreet, and Thomas Tryon. Austerity Measures argues that early modern poets used literary form to model solutions addressed to pressing concerns about food insecurity and food ethics.

On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, comedian Avi Liberman joins Adam in studio to talk about his new book Strange Gigs, which chronicles the bizarre and unexpected shows he's had to perform while on the road. Avi recalls one of his worst gigs ever, entertaining a rowdy crowd of drunk U.S. Marines, before he and Adam look back on their early days grinding it out at open mics. Adam shares the story of waiting all day for his shot at The Laugh Factory, only to be bumped by Pauly Shore, and explains why he's never liked bumping other comics himself. The two then dive into the current state of stand-up, with Avi offering his honest take on crowd work and roast comics.In the news, Elisha Krauss stops by with some of the week's trending headlines. They react to the story of Rampage Jackson's son, Raja, who is under investigation for a ruthless attack at a Los Angeles wrestling event. They also take a lighter turn with the viral clip of New York Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani failing at a bench press attempt during Men's Day in Brooklyn — a moment that earned him public ribbing from political rivals like Andrew Cuomo and Eric Adams.Later, acclaimed chef Brad Kilgore joins the show for a mouthwatering conversation about pizza and the restaurant industry. Adam asks Brad to weigh in on the best style of pizza, before the two bond over their love of meatballs and debate the merits of ricotta cheese. They also discuss how chefs put creative spins on traditional dishes, while Adam samples slices of Brad's famous pizza and doubles down on his love for thin-crust New York style. The conversation expands to the challenges of running a restaurant today, before the two swap topping preferences — from their shared love of olives to Brad's favorite bacon combinations, and Adam's surprisingly controversial take on bacon itself.Get it on.FOR MORE WITH AVI LIBERMAN:BOOK: Stranger Gigs - Available NOW on AmazonTouring Israel in October 8-12 benefitting the Koby Mandell FoundationINSTAGRAM: @avilibermancomedyWEBSITE: aviliberman.com FOR MORE WITH ELISHA KRAUSS: INSTAGRAM: @elishakraussWEBSITE: elishakrauss.com JOURNAL: https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/author/elisha-krauss/FOR MORE WITH BRAD KILGORE: PIZZA: Pizza Freak Co - Frozen pizza shipped to your door WEBSITE: Pizzafreakco.comINSTAGRAM: @brad_kilgoreThank you for supporting our sponsors:BetOnlinehomes.comoreillyauto.com/ADAMPluto.tvGo to https://hometitlelock.com/adamcarolla and use promo code ADAM to get a FREE title history report and a FREE TRIAL of their Triple Lock Protection!

ABOUT DOUBLE SCOOPNora and James were once the dream team at a top New York ad agency, but now they're locked in a frosty competition for the sweetest client of all: a small-town dairy farm that churns out the most delectable ice cream in the country.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR DOUBLE SCOOP:August 23, 2025 | Hallmark ChannelCAST & CREW OF DOUBLE SCOOP:Taylor Cole as NoraRyan McPartlin as JamesPatrick Muldoon as EverettJacklyn Collier as ShannonBRAN'S DOUBLE SCOOP SYNOPSIS:Nora is a hotshot advertiser who brings her boss, Alexandra, a cake for her birthday. Alexandra left their previous company, H Company, to start a rival firm. Nora's closest teammate—and rival—James chose to stay behind, and now he's up for the potential Vice President role.Nora goes out to dinner with her pregnant friend Jacks, who insists they stop at her favorite ice cream spot, Darlington Dairy. Nora tries it, is blown away, and wonders why she's never heard of it before. (Good question, Nora.)Meanwhile, James' boss tells him the VP role is between him and Lavery. Whoever brings in the hottest new client within the next two weeks gets the job.The next day, Nora and James bump into each other. She drops her bag, and it's full of ice cream. She lies, saying it's for the office, when in reality, she's eyeing Darlington Dairy as a client. Unfortunately for her, she leaves a carton behind, and James scoops it up. He brings it to his boss and claims the idea as his own.Soon enough, both Nora and James are on planes to Wisconsin to meet the owners. By coincidence, they're staying at the same inn, in neighboring rooms. Their paths officially collide when they both show up to take the owners to dinner. Classic double booking. Naturally, they all dine together.After dinner, Nora and James lay down some ground rules: no sabotage, no scarfing down ice cream to win favor, and both present their pitches—the best pitch wins. (Which, let's be honest, feels like the only rule that should matter.)The next morning, Nora's car won't start. Turns out it's an EV, and she forgot to charge it. James offers her a ride.From there, they spend more time together—working on the farm, sharing late nights. One sleepless evening leads to a romantic night under the stars, surrounded by fireflies.One day, James chats with the mayor and learns the town is running out of funding for local farms. He pitches to his boss that they donate money to help, and his boss loves the idea—especially since the owners will surely be impressed.Nora sees James meeting with the mayor and grows suspicious, though she's also starting to genuinely enjoy his company.At the town's ice cream festival, the mayor announces the new farmers' fund in front of everyone. Nora is furious—she feels James is bribing the owners.Finally, pitch day arrives. The owners choose James.Back at the office, James learns his boss called ahead and warned the owners against working with Alexandra. Disgusted, he quits.Later, Nora discovers the owners called her instead—they're going with her after all, because they found out James walked away.She goes to see James, who reveals Alexandra offered him a job. He'll only take it if it's okay with her, because he's madly in love with her and doesn't want anything to come between them again. They kiss—and kiss some more.

She shares how she navigated early setbacks (including being dropped by her first big manager) to build her career from the ground up with fearless off-Broadway work.

Gabby opens up about the highs and lows of her journey, why she loves Zoom chemistry reads, and the wisdom she's gained from working with some of the industry's most visionary directors. This episode proves that in a career where “nothing ever happens the way you think it will,” passion and persistence truly light the way.

Curtis Sliwa, Guardian Angels founder and Republican mayoral candidate, is sounding the alarm on what he calls a “radical Marxist takeover” of New York City if Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani wins the upcoming mayoral election. In a recent interview with political commentator Alan Skorski, Sliwa blasted Mamdani as an “America-hating, cop-bashing, antisemitic socialist” whose policies, he said, would devastate New York's economy and put its Jewish population at risk. “Mamdani has made it clear he wants to defund the police, impose rent control that would collapse our housing market, and even open government-run grocery stores,” Sliwa said, comparing the proposals to failed Soviet-era policies. He also criticized Mamdani's ties to progressive figures including Linda Sarsour and his past role in Students for Justice in Palestine, noting his refusal to condemn the “Globalize the Intifada” slogan. Sliwa, who has campaigned heavily on public safety, argued that Mamdani's platform would embolden crime. He recalled the Guardian Angels' patrols during the Crown Heights riots, urging New York's Jewish community to strengthen its own defense. “There won't always be a Donald Trump in office,” Sliwa warned. “Antisemitism is rising from both the left and right. Jews must stop relying on others for protection.” On housing, Sliwa said he would focus on converting thousands of vacant properties across the city into affordable units, while scrapping congestion pricing and traffic speed cameras he called “nothing more than extra fines.” Sliwa also invoked the teachings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, saying Jews should not flee from antisemitism but remain and “fight for themselves.” Running on both the Republican and “Protect Animals” independent line, Sliwa believes his record as a community organizer and advocate for pet owners will resonate with voters across the city.

In this episode we invite David Nathan to look back on his illustrious 60 years as "the British Ambassador of Soul". Our guest commences by recalling his gateway into Black American music: the covers of Shirelles and Miracles classics included on the first two Beatles albums. He furthermore describes the thrill of seeing Motown star Mary Wells supporting the Fab Four at Kilburn's State Cinema in October 1964, followed by his founding of the Nina Simone Appreciation Society. We hear about the Soul City record store David ran with the legendary Dave Godin – and about John Abbey's trailblazing Blues & Soul magazine, for which our guest began writing in 1968. Barney quotes from David's 1968 B&S profile of Aretha Franklin, with whom he later enjoyed a long friendship. The release of Make It Easy on Yourself – a box set David compiled of Dionne Warwick's immortal Scepter recordings – is the cue for us to hear clips from his 2012 audio interview with the Bacharach & David muse... and to learn about another "soulful diva" who became his close friend. We bring our guest's story more up-to-date with his reflections on yet another diva/pal, the one and only Chaka Khan. Mention of the former Rufus frontwoman's favourite producer, Arif Mardin, leads to discussion of Main Course, the Mardin-helmed album on which the Bee Gees "went disco" 50 long summers ago. David then reminisces about his own disco dalliances in '70s New York and his mid-'80s coastal switch to L.A.  We wrap up by paying tribute to another key white writer on Black R&B and soul: the late Michael Lydon, whose voice can be heard in this episode introducing his fabulous 1977 audio interview with the wicked Wilson Pickett. Mark and Jasper talk us out with their thoughts on (and quotes from) pieces recently added to the RBP library, including Jim Farber's 1978 interview with Earth, Wind & Fire's Maurice White and Ian Winwood's 2001 trashing of Creed live in Louisville. Many thanks to special guest David Nathan. Visit his website at davidnathan.com. Dionne Warwick: Make It Easy On Yourself – The Scepter Recordings 1962-1971 is out now on SoulMusic Records. Pieces discussed: Aretha Franklin: Aretha's Artistry, Dionne Warwick (2012), Chaka Khan: Back...From Back In The Day, Back on course with the Bee Gees, How the Bee Gees got into Disco: An Oral History of Main Course, Arif Mardin: Producer, Wilson Pickett (1977), Return of the Wicked Pickett, Top Tunes: The Beach Boys, Bobby Womack: Bobby's got Understanding, Earth Wind & Fire: Extraterrestrial R&B, Creed live and From Kingston with love.

The New York-based singer, songwriter, and producer Anand Wilder was a cofounder of the experimental indie band Yeasayer, and more recently has pursued a wide-ranging solo career.  His 2022 solo debut, I Don't Know My Words, was a genuine solo project, with Anand playing everything himself.

DNC Chair wants Democrats to fight back against Trump's GOP-backed authoritarianism. An obviously hobbled Shitler could barely walk during his latest golf outing. Governor Pritzker ripped man-baby a new one for illegally deploying the National Guard in a historic righteous tongue lashing. In the new authoritarian led economy, the government could take stakes in even more companies. Even conservatives didn't like sickly Trump's plan to jail folks who burn the flag. Lil Nas got in trouble in Los Angeles and of course the cops were up to no good. A memoir of the late Epstein victim, Virginia Giuffre chronicled horrors involving predator Prince Andrew. A gaggle of New York suits gave the famously bland restaurant Cracker Barrell a marketing makeover and scored a zero with the MAGATs. The Crabs discussed how the New York Times and other outlets ruthlessly covered Biden's health issues and wondered why those same outlets barely touch on the Felon-in-chief's alleged congestive heart failure.

I am going to start this marketing monologue with a story.  I'm going to start with a story. I was about four years old and I went into a bakery with my dad. And while he was ordering breads and pastries, I was standing there looking in the glass counter at these beautiful pastries. Eventually, my dad looked down and he says, Lanie, do you want one? Yes, Daddy. So the woman reaches behind the counter and she gets me a Charlotte Russe. Now, if you're not from New York, you may not know what a Charlotte Russe pastry is. It's a little piece of pound cake stuffed inside a tube about the size of a toilet paper roll filled with whipped cream. And then on the very top, there's a cherry. She hands it to me, and I say thank you—because I was a very polite child. I ate the cherry off the top and as we were leaving, the pastry falls to the ground. Before I had a chance to say anything, the woman came running out from behind the counter and said, Don't cry, sweetie, I'll get you another one. Lanie, do you want another one? Yes, Daddy. And so the woman gave me another pastry. This time, as we were leaving, I ate the cherry off the top, and—yep—you guessed it. I dropped the pastry on the floor. Why did you do that? my father asked. And I probably should mention right about now that my dad was not a patient person. I said, I only wanted the cherry. What we had was a failure to communicate. My dad was talking about pastries. I was talking about cherries. Anyone who has spent time with children knows this feeling—talking about something and realizing halfway through the child has no idea what you mean. That's because children come into a conversation with a smaller worldview. They don't have the same vocabulary, experience, or context. So they focus on the parts that make sense and miss the bigger picture. But here's the thing: adults do the exact same thing. Every networking event, every pitch, every sales call—people nod politely while you talk about your process, your platform, or your proprietary system… but if you're not speaking their language, they check out. They're thinking about their next meeting. Or dinner. Or pastries. So how do you keep them with you? How do you connect, especially when your work is a little technical or complex? Here's how: 1. Simplify your message. Strip out the jargon. Ditch the 12-step framework. Lead with the cherry—the one irresistible thing you know they'll understand and care about. 2. Use familiar comparisons. Find a metaphor, an analogy, something from their world. Talk about what you do the way you'd explain it to a 10-year-old—without being condescending. Just clear. 3. Test your message before the real thing. Before your next networking event or client meeting, practice explaining what you do to a non-marketing friend. Or your kid. Or even out loud in the mirror. If you can't make it land simply, it's too complicated. 4. Lead with benefits, not process. You help clients get more leads, increase visibility, or stop spinning their wheels online. That's what they want to hear. The platform, the tools, the magic—save that for later. 5. Watch for confused faces—and adjust. If someone looks puzzled or politely disengaged, pause. Ask a question. Reframe. Don't just keep steamrolling through your pitch. That's how pastries get dropped. The bottom line? If you want better conversations and better results :Say less. Make it clearer. Make it about them. And when you do, you just might walk away with more sales, more referrals… and the occasional cherry on top. If this sparked an idea or reminded you of your own “cherry on top” moment, I'd love to hear about it. Hit the “Let's Chat” button on all my social profiles or drop by morethanafewwords.com.

Oklahoma's education chief Ryan Walters has rolled out a new policy requiring teacher applicants from California and New York to pass a 50-question “America-first” exam developed by PragerU before they can teach in the state.Supporters say the test protects classrooms from “woke indoctrination,” while critics—including education groups and legal experts—argue it's unconstitutional, worsens teacher shortages, and functions as a partisan loyalty test.

640. Bruce's son Kerr joins us for part 1 of our conversation with Josh Neufeld about his non-fiction graphic novel, A. D. After the Deluge. “A stunning graphic novel that makes plain the undeniable horrors and humanity triggered by Hurricane Katrina in the true stories of six New Orleanians who survived the storm. A.D. follows each of the six from the hours before Katrina struck to its horrific aftermath. Here is Denise, a sixth-generation New Orleanian who will experience the chaos of the Superdome; the Doctor, whose unscathed French Quarter home becomes a refuge for those not so lucky; Abbas and his friend Mansell, who face the storm from the roof of Abbas's family-run market; Kwame, a pastor's son whose young life will remain wildly unsettled well into the future; and Leo, a comic-book fan, and his girlfriend, Michelle, who will lose everything but each other.” Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy. The oldest play about Louisiana, author James Workman wrote it as a celebration of the Louisiana Purchase. Now it is back in print for the first time in 221 years. Order your copy today! This week in the Louisiana Anthology. Walt Whitman came to New Orleans for 3 months to write at the New Orleans Crescent. There he saw things he had not seen in New York. This poem is about one of those.  "I Saw in Louisiana a Live-Oak Growing." I saw in Louisiana a live-oak growing, All alone stood it and the moss hung down from the branches, Without any companion it grew there uttering joyous leaves of dark green, And its look, rude, unbending, lusty, made me think of myself, But I wonder'd how it could utter joyous leaves standing alone there without its friend near, for I knew I could not, And I broke off a twig with a certain number of leaves upon it, and twined around it a little moss, And brought it away, and I have placed it in sight in my room, It is not needed to remind me as of my own dear friends, (For I believe lately I think of little else than of them,) Yet it remains to me a curious token, it makes me think of manly love; For all that, and though the live-oak glistens there in Louisiana solitary in a wide flat space, Uttering joyous leaves all its life without a friend a lover near, I know very well I could not. This week in Louisiana history. August 23, 1714. St. Denis begins his exploration of Red River Valley. This week in New Orleans history. The grass-roots organization Levees.org, founded by Sandy Rosenthal and her son Stanford (while exiled in Lafayette after Hurricane Katrina) is devoted to educating America on the facts associated with the 2005 catastrophic flooding of the New Orleans region. On August 23, 2010 the group installed a Louisiana State Historic Marker which reads “On August 29, 2005, a federal floodwall atop a levee on the 17th Street Canal, the largest and most important drainage canal for the city, gave way here causing flooding that killed hundreds. This breach was one of 50 ruptures in the Federal Flood Protection System on that day. In 2008, the US District Court placed responsibility for this floodwall's collapse squarely on the US Army Corps of Engineers.” This week in Louisiana.
