Flight
This week we review the 2012 American drama film Flight directed by Robert Zemeckis. The film stars Denzel Washington as William "Whip" Whitaker Sr., an alcoholic airline pilot who miraculously crash-lands his plane after a mechanical failure, saving nearly everyone on board. Although hailed a hero, an investigation soon begins to cast the captain in a different light. We start the podcast discussing flying stories, Qantas status credits and a genuinely fascinating story from the Aussie, later in the show, about a time the pilot left the airplane to buy him a sandwich  - you heard that right - the pilot left the airplane to specifically buy the Aussie a sandwich because he was " ravenous". He has the photo to prove it - it's one of the all time great stories.  Thanks Delta Airlines. We discuss the Aussies weight, his fitness journey and that leads us into a discussion about the recent The Biggest Loser documentary. As for the movie? We love it. We discuss the backstory - what happened to make Whip an alcoholic. The Aussie poses what he calls the moral question of the film. " Should he have gone to jail. After all he did save 96 out of the 102 souls on board?" Would it be a different answer if they had all died or saved?  We discuss economy v business class. We discuss the golden days of flying and the gravitas of being a pilot and a steward or stewardess.   The boys are on fire in this one  - they are flying- riffing back and forth - great banter and a great podcast.
