Flights Fights and Forever
Jesse (pilot) and Sharon (author) started a podcast because they communicate better when someone's listening. They're trying to stay married forever for their four kids, and because they truly think they love each other.
This dynamic travel duo also share their secrets so listeners can travel like locals.
Jesse is a retired military and current airline pilot. Sharon, an author, educator, and artist, held down the homefront during his military career, but now she's determined to explore the world one standby flight at a time.
Flights Fights and Forever
3. We've Been Fighting: Nicotine, Taylor, Sportsball and Deferred Dreams
"We had a big fight." Jesse and Sharon are back. Fighting interrupted their podcasting, but after a few weeks they try to record a belated Valentine's and Sportsball episode. Jesse derails that trying to find out what Sharon is still upset about and what comes up includes...
- Body image and alcohol - yikes!
- Should you keep waiting on deferred dreams, or seize the day even if it means doing it alone?
- Should there be full disclosure before lifelong commitments, or is a little selective ignorance necessary for survival?
- How to stop effing up Valentines Day
- The expense of differing tastes
- A fight about Taylor Swift, Bleachers, and Metallica
- The worst commentary on the Super Bowl ever
- Tommy Lefroy, thank God
