In this episode of Keep It Humane: The Podcast, hosts Daniel Ettinger, Ashlee Bishop and Ashley Bishop take to the skies with Michael Schneider, founder of Pilots to the Rescue—a nonprofit organization that unites aviation and animal welfare in an extraordinary way. Michael shares his journey from tech entrepreneur to pilot on a mission, flying at-risk animals from overcrowded shelters and disaster zones to safety and second chances.

We discuss the logistics behind lifesaving flights, the emotional impact of rescue missions, and how everyday people can get involved—whether they're pilots, animal lovers, or both. This inspiring conversation highlights the critical role of collaboration, innovation, and compassion in animal welfare.

Strap in for a high-flying episode that proves when people work together, even the sky isn't the limit.
