AtomicBang13My new favorite podcast!I’m blowing through these too quick. Bring “Tuna” back for some more stories. “How many traps do you have?” “Well over a hundred”. Nice work, Rain.

alex5000jlkfhjklafsdjhgdhjfadsGreat podcastListened to every episode from the beginning. Was turned on to the show through the fighter pilot podcast. The latest show which was a review of a fatal viper crash was very different than the standard show but I enjoyed it a lot. Would be interested in hearing more shows like it of other incidents or even successful missions

matchinegunerAwesome showRain never fails to deliver interesting guests who have great stories and experiences. The podcast is long enough to get the good stuff but short enough to avoid boring. Also, he and his guests do a great job of breaking down the jargon so us civilians can understand. Hard to wait for the next episode!

Juice WhislerTuna episode is gold!!Rain, Juice here...”Viper” from the ‘13-14 sequestration years. Just listened to your episode with Tuna. Took me back to the Heritage days. He’s a great pilot and better human! The stories, the banter, and the Air Force literal Heritage that you’re preserving by having them tell these stories is awesome. For all those listeners out there that have never flown fighters (or any Air Force aircraft for that matter) this podcast gets you as close as you can without inking to serve and getting lucky enough to fly fighters! Keep up the great work Rain! Awesome job! I’m rubbing an ROTC Det right now and sit in my office just wanting one more flight!!

3boysdad2018Wonderful for young people to hearI have been listening ever since my oldest son (14) said he wants to fly jets. Giving him the opportunity to get is PPL and help him realize his dream and aspirations, not surprised as Grandpa was a Crewchief on the c47 sky train during DDay & Crewchief on B29’s during bombing of Japan. After the war Dad flew pipers for fun on weekends Much success to you and your team on this podcast. & Thankyou for your service! Frank A.

CLT WookSeth Rogen?I swear the interview in episode 19 sounded like Seth Rogen. I’d think I was in for a wild ride if I was in a Southwest Airlines plane and he came on the PA and chuckled his was through the announcements.

Queen of piesPut this one into your auto-update list as wellWith so many aviation podcasts out there you need to draw the line somewhere, right? Well, sorry, this one needs to be included as well. The human aspect of the stories and the detail given make this podcast a must listen.
-
WINTER14Outstanding Podcast, Phenomenal Stories!The podcast features exceptional guests and it’s great to be able to hear some of these stories that you’d never hear about otherwise. He also has a few “famous” guests and it’s insightful to hear the stories you think you know, but in great detail from the people who were actually there. The production and sound quality are excellent as well. Keep up the great work Sir!

hemingway766Nice additionSuper pleased with the podcast. Learning a ton, laughing along the way. Wish the format was longer. I really enjoy the technical aspect of it, and the small details on what it is actually like to pilot these beasts. Keep it going and make the format longer!

Hesprus.Historical information.Gets off to a somewhat choppy start regarding audio quality. But the information presented here will probably be used by future historians.
-
TA FFPM122Great podcastAs a former sailor that launched planes off of an aircraft carrier I love all things aviation but especially military jets. I really enjoy this podcast, I would like an explanation on the abbreviations or what a bunch of capital letters stand for. Also how did the pilot earn his nickname? Keep the great podcasts coming!

TimdeckOutstanding job!Great job Rain with the interviews and helping your guests tell their stories. I especially enjoyed the Caleb Brewer episode- what a great American warrior. And it was fun listening to you and MG talk about air shows, Red Bull races, and the demo flight you gave him. I flew a few air shows with him and he’s a class act. Keep up the good work!

NastyMcCrackenMajor Rager John “Rain” WatersFor those that have enjoyed Rains videos on Instagram, this podcast takes it to the next level. #949designs #familyfirst #dontbringitweak #merica

KellerCarsonAwesome podcast.I have to disagree with sal on the "rambling” aspect. If you want a classroom style podcast, the fighter pilot is great. But as far as listening to stories and finding out what the individuals feel is important information. This is spot on.
