In our latest episode we literally fail to get past our opening segment, for nearly an hour and a half.

Happy new year (have we gone past the threshold for saying that yet?)

Our latest podcast episode is now out. I'm sure the discussion of things the listener can't see will really catch on soon....

Nice!

Can't wait to give a listen to this one. I've grown up with hearing Ben at Riat and other shows. Always thought he is a very commentator.

No. He is not only a commentator. Would be surprising if someone can live from what he gets for commentating at airshows, especially because airshows tend to be for less then half of the year.
A weather forecast is a forecast and just that

Yep, I'm not saying he is only a commentator. Just saying he is a very good one. Always thought he was very good and knowledgeable when I have listened to him at shows over the years. I'm sure he does other ventures but I'll have to listen to the podcast to know what they are.

It was clearly a typo, he missed a word. Leave it alone.

Managed to drag myself out of a very early run, so managed to listen to the whole podcast. Very good as always. I have always thought that Ben has been very good as the commentator at most shows. Very knowledgeable and has that 'radio' voice. I have probably learnt a lot over the years from him. Getting into aviation more and more listening to his facts at Riat
