That was fun! I enjoyed hearing Scott's story on how WIX developed.
Keep up the good work on both the show and WIX!
Jerry

BTW, thanks for asking about the upcoming Wings & Wheels: Corsairs over Connecticut show!

Hey Nathan and Jerry! Thanks for calling in!!! Sorry if the connections got a little wonky there for a bit... there was some downstream traffic here at my office I think and there were some lags. It was great hearing from you both... you did great!

For those of you who are curious, we'll be posting the show as a free Podcast to WIX members on http://www.warbirds-online.org tomorrow for you to listen to at your leisure... and feel free to give us feedback on the show... like how I talk too much or sound too whiny... :-)

Thanks again to everyone who tuned in as well! Let's make it a weekly meet-up... grab ma and pa and sit around the PC and listen in! :-)

Thanks,
Ryan

Hey Nathan - yeah, it can be a little ubrupt at times with radio call in, especially since this was our first show and we're just learning the ropes... but it was great to hear from you, no hard feelings I hope! You'll need to call in again and give your opinion when we get a real hot topic too!

Thanks!
Ryan

Thanks Ryan, no hard feelings at all. Glad I could be a part and I'll try and call in again. :wink: Now it's time for me to go to work. :(

Take care,
Nathan

I would like to hear Bill Greenwood on there to give political commentary. Maybe he and Jack Cook could give both sides of the political spectrum, perhaps something similar to the old "Hannity and Colmes" show. Maybe they could each give their perspectives with a warbird slant. As an example, the topic might be "raising underwater W.W.II aircraft wrecks". Jack's position might be to raise them all, while Bill might espouse leaving them in place because they might damage the fragile eco-systems of the ocean or lakes.

Just think how interesting that debate might be!

:D

that "TYPICAL WHITE PERSON" that prezdent Osamma was talking about the other night?
:lol:

Ryan to Ryan - (just how many Ryan's are there on here anyway? I never meet 'em in person)

When and where is the podcast posted? I've been checking in off and on all day so I can upload it to my MP3 player.

Ryan got a little tied up at work. We're still working out some snags with the process but we'll try to get the podcast up this weekend.

And I would personally like to thank everyone who listened live and who will listen to the podcast once it is up. I had a lot of fun Wednesday and look forward to hearing from you all next week. We would like to hear from you guys and gals about who you would want to hear on the show as well as subjects you want us to discuss. One thing I would like to have is restoration reports from people restoring these aircraft, especially you non-profit organizations. Lets see about getting your project some publicity.

Questions can be PM/Email'd in or you can call the show when we go live. Lets make this our show!

"non profit organizations" indeed. Aren't almost all aviation related things non profit? Unless you are making G5s and even those may have some slowing. Most warbird stuff and airlines may not be designed as non profit but is is that way now.

Hey gang... join us TONIGHT, Wednesday, January 20th (8pm Eastern / 5pm Pacific) on the WIX Warbird Weekly Show LIVE on Warbird Radio (http://www.warbirdradio.com) - with myself and co-host Scott Rose and guest Zane Adams (Ztex), WIX Moderator and lifelong warbird enthusiast. This is a continuation of sorts from our first show that's meant to introduce the WIX and WRG staff as we go forward... heck, Zane may join us as a co-host on occasion as well!

We'll be chatting tonight about the topic of "Internal Politics & Warbirds: Is it the biggest threat to warbirds out there?" as we discuss the role that political infighting and strife has played on many warbird organizations over the years and why it happens - and we want you to call in! The studio number for call in is 478.787.4768 - see you then!

Again, http://www.warbirdradio.com at 8pm EST / 5pm PST.

The first two broadcasts will be on Warbirds Online tomorrow for download in case you miss it tonight.

Thanks!
Ryan

Thanks for an interesting show today (20 Jan), guys! I was only able to listen to about 40 minutes of it, but I like the topic and the way it was covered. I look forward to more shows.

My only production-related comment is that somebody on the show had a serious nose-whistle that made some segments almost un-listenable. Seriously, how about turning his mic down when he's not talking? Yikes. :rolleyes:

Yeah, I was listening for a bit tonight and the nose whistle was driving me nuts. I finally had to shut it off so I could run my fingernails down a chalkboard and regain my equalibrium.
