In this episode, Keller breaks down his extreme hiring philosophy that has powered Zipline for over a decade. He also walks through Zipline's full origin story: from a near-dead home robot startup to a scrappy bet on drone blood delivery in Rwanda, to 135 million autonomous miles flown.

Africa Highlights and Travel Lessons: Egypt Challenges, Gorilla Trekking, Vic Falls, and Cape TownTyler hosts Non Rev Lounge in Austin with returning guest Melissa and her husband Jay, longtime friends who first met Tyler on a Southwest flight and later traveled together to Hawaii. They discuss Melissa and Jay's multi-week Africa trip planned around Jay's 50th birthday, including missing Tyler's family by a few hours in South Africa due to itinerary timing. The conversation covers a difficult, budget-style stop in Egypt (Cairo) with a non-English-speaking driver, getting lost en route to the pyramids, frequent requests for money from vendors and even a police officer, confusion around museum pickup logistics, being taken to an underwhelming “bazaar,” disappointment about a cheaper-than-expected dinner cruise, and an unpleasant hotel dining payment incident; they conclude Egypt is better done via a prepaid guided tour or river cruise. They then describe traveling through Rwanda and Uganda, visiting the Kigali Genocide Museum (highly emotional and impactful, leading them to skip the planned city tour) and completing a gorilla trek in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable Forest They also recount activities around Victoria Falls such as the Devil's Pool experience on the Zambia side (swimming across, proximity to hippos/crocodiles, and fish nibbling feet), plus zip lining, lion walking (with safety rules and notes about controversy and the operator's reluctance), rafting, and a Botswana safari near Chobe National Park and the Chobe River with many elephants. They touch on flights and logistics—using miles for British Airways into Egypt, buying some intra-Africa flights for reliability (including Ethiopian and Kenya), concerns about weight-restricted flights returning to the U.S. (ultimately flying United to Newark and onward), using candy as a thank-you (sometimes refused as a “bribe”), and doing laundry via sink washing and local services. 00:00 Welcome to NonRev Lounge + Introducing Melissa & Jay01:56 How Tyler & Melissa Met: The Southwest Flight That Started It All02:53 Buddy Passes, Hawaii Trips, and Travel Style Differences04:59 Back to Austin: Texas Weather Whiplash & Catching Up06:07 Why Africa?

Depuis Dakar, Muriel Edjo met en lumière trois tendances fortes de la tech africaine. Au Rwanda, les drones de Zipline livrent des médicaments en zones rurales et auraient permis de réduire de 51 % la mortalité maternelle dans les régions desservies. Au Maroc, la chirurgie robotisée s'installe dans le réseau public pour pallier la pénurie de spécialistes et élargir l'accès aux soins. Enfin, en Égypte, le Parlement prépare une loi pour encadrer l'usage des réseaux sociaux par les enfants, dans un contexte de montée du cyberharcèlement et de la désinformation.

Peter Sachs, Head of Airspace Integration, Zipline spoke with Claudia Bacco, Editor-in-Chief, Global Airspace Radar about the 10 year path that has helped Zipline evolve to where they are at today.We discuss the market needs in two very different markets. The support of medical requirements via drone delivery in Africa and the delivery of food and household supplies in the US.In order for this to be successful, UTM is a key component. Building on UTM functionality, we look at Remote ID, electronic conspicuity, detect-and-avoid and more. These technologies all get us closer to autonomy, which is required for this concept to scale to it's full potential.

In this episode, Michelle sits down with Paul Button, General Manager of Rotorua Canopy Tours, to unpack one of New Zealand's most remarkable tourism success stories. From his early days as a whitewater raft guide chasing winters and summers around the globe, to leading one of New Zealand's most awarded visitor experiences, Paul shares his journey into tourism leadership and the culture that drives Rotorua Canopy Tours. This conversation goes far beyond ziplining. Paul reveals: How founder James Fitzgerald set out to create “the most engaging zipline experience in the world” - and why the zipline itself only makes up three minutes of the tour. How conservation became central to the business, removing 800 pests in the first week and sparking a long-term biodiversity commitment. Why visitor experience excellence is simple - but incredibly hard to deliver consistently. The power of emotional “spikes” in creating unforgettable family moments. How a tourism business is now contributing to cutting-edge carbon sequestration research, potentially reshaping how New Zealand values native forest restoration. With over 9,000 TripAdvisor reviews and global accolades under their belt, Rotorua Canopy Tours proves that tourism can do more than entertain - it can restore ecosystems, build legacy, and create meaningful human connection. This is a powerful conversation about leadership, culture, conservation, and the role tourism can play in shaping a better future. ___________________________________________________________ Powered by https://www.destinatenz.com  If you, or someone you work with has a great tourism story to share, and would like to come onto the show, please get in touch!

On this episode of Talking Shop I am joined by Zipline CEO and co-founder Melissa Wong. We discuss how Melissa's 10 years' of frontline experience informed her approach to building a SaaS company, the recurring operational frustrations that most head offices still underestimate, and why she believes technology should be designed with the store associate as the primary user. We also explore current trends in store execution and how retailers can bridge the gap between corporate strategy and the shop floor.

"We're going to hire tons of engineers in Rwanda who are Rwandan to build this technology shoulder to shoulder with our American engineers."American foreign policy is experiencing a profound shift. It's now about trade not aid. But we've been waiting to understand what that means in practice. That's why an announcement by the US Department of State last November was so significant. The U.S. committed up to $150 million dollars to a partnership with Zipline. Zipline is an American company that designs, manufactures, and operates delivery drones. Yes, drones. And it's one of the first real examples of the America First global health strategy in action. So that's why we're excited to speak with Caitlin Burton. Caitlin is the CEO of Zipline Africa. Plus: What she really thinks about aid

"They were tired of losing women in childbirth."Last year, one of the US's top diplomats said that Africa is the world's largest untapped market… and Africa should be among the US's largest trading partners. This time, it's not just about aid. It's about business. And we were wondering what that might mean in practice. In November last year, the US Department of State made an important announcement: the U.S. committed up to $150 million dollars to a partnership with Zipline. Zipline designs, manufactures, and operates delivery drones. These currently fly in Cote d'Ivoire, Kenya, Nigeria, Rwanda, Ghana. And they're saving lives. Listen to find out more.Plus: How African governments are forward thinking.

Bruce & Gaydos explain Zipline, a San Francisco-based company that intends to launch autonomous drone delivery service in the Phoenix area. They also talk about ICE-enforcement tactics and your constitutional rights.

From holograms and go-karts to voice tech and virtual reality, Day 2 at NRF 2026 offered no shortage of surprises—and even more insight into what truly matters in retail innovation.  In this episode of Talk Retail to Me, we bring together three perspectives—a consultant (Dan Wittner from The Parker Avery Group), a retailer (Ryan Holm from Helzberg), and a solution provider (Dustin Sundy from Zipline)—to share what truly stood out on the show floor.   We talk about why “don't lead with AI” became the smartest message at NRF, how retailers are using voice and transcription as a new demand signal, and which innovations felt more like “must-have” than “nice-to-have.”  You'll hear highlights including:  Why problem-first storytelling beats AI-first marketing  The coolest activations on the floor (yes, including holograms and go-karts)  How voice, transcription, and feedback loops are changing store operations  Virtual and augmented reality experiences that delivered value  Giveaways, food trucks, and the fun side of NRF  If you want a fast, honest recap of what mattered most at NRF 2026 (and what you can safely ignore), this episode has you covered.    Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/lANEaSsDJGE Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4zcXy3zsovfbBZnM3QeZ1K?si=mEKq9uUxRwyB62EyuXsSFw Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/what-wowed-us-at-nrf-2026-with-helzberg-and-zipline/id1517831626?i=1000745139756 Listen on Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/51d97767-74ba-487d-8c6b-5442e1855d2d/episodes/87f581cd-daee-48f7-b01e-5c3175233bd6/talk-retail-to-me-nrf-2026-key-shifts-that-will-decide-the-agentic-future Listen on Pandora: https://www.pandora.com/podcast/talk-retail-to-me/what-wowed-us-at-nrf-2026-with-helzberg-and-zipline/PE:1321417884?part=ug-desktop&corr=196351888147364396 Listen or watch all Parker Avery "Talk Retail to Me" podcast episodes: https://parkeravery.com/retail-podcast/  

Die Hessen sind zurück, das drei90-Jahr kann beginnen. Basti erzählt von Mexiko, wo er ungeplant mehr Ziplines benutzen musste, als vorgesehen. Außerdem folgt er den Restauranttipps eines betrunkenen Mexikaners. David berichtet von Wisenten, Landhühnern und Eisbaden. Jede Menge Fußball gab es natürlich auch: Wir gehen den Bundesliga-Spieltag einzeln durch, zollen den Bayern Respekt und wundern uns über unerwartete Tore bei Union gegen Mainz. Enzo will sich nicht über den Sieg des VfB freuen und das SC-Spiel gegen den HSV sorgt für eine ausführliche Schiedsrichter-Diskussion. Axel erinnert sich an eine „phantastische Niederlage“ und wir diskutieren, ob Kwasniok noch Karneval in Köln erleben wird. Basti schreibt beinahe eine Glückwunsch-SMS an Kevin Trapp und wird durch abgebrochene Stadionmusik verwirrt. Zum Ende des Fußball-Segments bringt David eine Geschichte über einen jungen Elsässer mit, der mit 23 Jahren schon aus dem mongolischen Liga-Alltag berichten kann. Danach lesen wir weiter beim „Ball des Todes“: Der Uta-Counter hechelt dem Blusen-Counter hinterher, murrende Kunden ballen sich am Grabbeltisch und Herbert Tole schiebt Hass.

Listen to Evan shriek as he whips around Candymonium, the tallest, fastest, and longest coaster at Hershey Park.

Finally, hear them both shout to the treetops as they whizz along the longest zipline in Central America. Brooklyn's PS 66 gets in the mix with a mind-bending riddle; Dean in New Paltz, NY interviews his grandma; and Gianna in New Jersey shares her favorite sound.

We dig into the details of a new report published by UNAIDS, which found that donor funding cuts to the HIV response could lead to an additional 3.9 million new infections over the next five years, even if treatment coverage is maintained. The report, published on World AIDS Day 2025, called on governments to uphold human rights and urged funders to dedicate more resources to HIV prevention, including the highly effective twice-yearly injectable, lenacapavir. Last week, the U.S. State Department announced a grant of up to $150 million to drone company Zipline to expand health supply operations in five African countries. We highlight how this decision could signal the Trump administration's new approach to global health aid. We also unpack how digital public infrastructure, or DPI, is becoming a vital development tool, and contemplate whether it can offer a more collaborative, cost-effective approach, especially given the recent cuts to foreign assistance. To explore these stories, and others, Senior Reporter Adva Saldinger sits down with Senior Editor for Special Coverage Catherine Cheney and Senior Reporter Jenny Lei Ravelo to discuss the top global development stories of the week. During the sponsored segment of This week in global development, brought to you by Pivotal, Catherine sits down with Action for Women's Health grantee Lisel Lifshitz Gudiño, who is also the executive director of Mujeres Aliadas. Her leadership champions the midwifery practice, ensuring the delivery of safe, dignified, and culturally sensitive health care.

Co robisz, gdy tracisz wszystko w wieku 2 lat? Gdy ojczyzna wyrzuca cię jak śmiecia? Gdy dorastasz w obozie dla uchodźców, gdzie nikt nie wierzy w twoją przyszłość?Większość się poddaje. Paul Kagame zdecydował się walczyć.Ta historia nie jest czarno-biała.To opowieść o człowieku, który zatrzymał jedno z największych ludobójstw w historii – i zbudował z popiołów kraj, który dzisiaj jest nazywany „singapurskim cudem Afryki”.Ale jaką zapłacił cenę? I czy cel usprawiedliwia środki?W tym odcinku odkryjesz:Jak stoicka dyscyplina może Cię podnieść z najgłębszego dnaMechanizm „zimnej kalkulacji”, który działa w kryzysie lepiej niż emocjeDlaczego prawdziwa siła to NIE agresja, ale kontrolaJak przekuć traumę w misję życiowąTo brutalna lekcja o tym, co możliwe, gdy odmówisz pogodzenia się z losem.Dla kogo ten odcinek?Dla wszystkich, którzy czują, że utknęli. Którzy wiedzą, że zasługują na więcej, ale nie wiedzą jak się odbudować po życiowym ciosie.

From crispy French fries to critical medical supplies, one company is transforming how goods move around the world with autonomous drone delivery technology.   In 2016, Zipline began with life-saving deliveries of blood and medical products in Rwanda and has since evolved into a global network expanding access to healthcare, consumer goods, and food. Operating across four continents and completing a delivery every 60 seconds, Zipline now serves more than 5,000 hospitals, retailers, and restaurants.   Listen in as we sit down with Keenan Wyrobek, Co-Founder and CTO, to explore how Zipline's pioneering approach to drone logistics is saving lives, reducing emissions, and opening new doors for economic opportunity — one autonomous flight at a time.   We'd love to hear from you.

There are few things Kevin Nash feels stronger about than protecting the sanctity of the locker room. This week he and Sean dive deep into the latest wrestling controversy and the chaos surrounding Raja Jackson, a mark who never should have been backstage in the first place. Kevin's blunt take cuts through all the noise with the kind of clarity only a veteran can provide From wild travel stories to the headaches of carrying extra gear, Kevin explains what it was really like dragging costumes, props, and even animals from one city to the next . The conversation highlights how much has changed, and how much should never change when it comes to respecting the business. The episode doesn't stay in one lane for long. Sean brings up the Becky Lynch promo in Birmingham, where the line between heat and disrespect left plenty of people furious . Kevin has his own unfiltered thoughts on whether crossing that boundary is ever worth it, and what happens when performers confuse cheap shots with genuine impact. Along the way, the guys dig into bigger questions about faith, family, and the unexpected ways life pushes you to reflect . As with last week, Kevin opens up in ways that surprise even longtime listeners, and Sean keeps pressing into places where honesty reveals more than either of them might have planned. By the time the show wraps, you've gone from backstage scandals to NBA nostalgia, from indie mishaps to spiritual visions. It is another ride only Kevin Nash could take you on, and another Monday morning where the main event is hearing what he really thinks when the rest of the world is still arguing in circles BlueChew-Visit BlueChew.com and try your first month of BlueChew FREE when you use promo code NASH -- just pay $5 shipping.

In this episode, James Maude sits down with Brian Wagner, CTO at Revenir, whose cybersecurity story started at just 15, building Microsoft Access databases for a medical hospice. From teenage entrepreneur to AWS security specialist, Brian's path has been anything but ordinary.

Together, James and Brian dissect how vendor network compromises can silently open doors into your cloud and why Brian insists that true security isn't something you bolt on later - it's a culture you build from day one.
