This was probably one of our favorite episodes we've done! Alex (i.e. Alex_BeaconofLight.mp3 and Alex__HumanAgain.mp3) is an aircraft mechanic who has been in the airforce, traveled extensively, and seen a great deal of the world. In this interview, we get some pretty great insight into the scenarios he's found himself in. Some things which come up : - spontaneity - the military, bedmaking, discipline and childhood visions - emergency scenarios, engine failure, thinking clearly and critical problem solving under pressure - bad landings, flight simulators, spoilers - the key to freedom - "small freedoms" - a cheery approach - things lookin' "real bad" - the individual as an element of the larger whole which requires self-optimization We hope you enjoy this as much as we did! Thanks for listening!
