The Exit Row - An AvGeek Podcast

Episode 47: The One Where We Raw Dog

Things get a little unfiltered on this episode of The Exit Row!

We kick things off by letting AI take control, randomly answering questions that send us down some absolutely wild conversational rabbit holes.

Justin brings us the latest from the worlds of sports and aviation, while Paige returns with another edition of Paige’s Polls, where we find out what our listeners really think about some of her latest questions.

We also preview some upcoming travel! Justin is getting ready to fly aboard a Delta Air Lines Airbus A350, and we talk about what he’s looking forward to on the trip.

Then, we start planning our Labor Day aviation adventure to Los Angeles (LAX). Everyone is taking a different route to LA, but naturally, Adama has decided that the best way to travel a relatively short distance is to take the longest and most ridiculous routing possible — including leaving the country along the way.

AI questions. Aviation. Sports. Listener polls. A Delta A350. Questionable routing decisions.

Just another normal episode of The Exit Row: An Aviation Enthusiast Podcast.

Episode 47 — “The One Where We Raw Dog.”

In this episode of The Exit Row, Justin shares the story of his incredible trip across the Pacific to Maui, Hawaii, featuring multiple unique aviation experiences along the way. He begins with a review of Delta One aboard the Delta Air Lines Boeing 767 from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) before continuing his Hawaiian adventure with flights on a Cessna 208 Caravan and the iconic Hawaiian Airlines Boeing 717. Justin also gives his thoughts on Honolulu International Airport (HNL), discusses what it's like flying between the Hawaiian Islands, and shares one final surprise on the journey home—a flight that turned out to be the captain's emotional retirement flight. If you love airline reviews, trip reports, aviation stories, and commercial aircraft, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

In this episode, the crew heads to Denver for Airliners International, where we reconnect with everyone's favorite, Preminition John, and share our favorite moments from one of the biggest aviation enthusiast gatherings of the year.

We celebrate Paige's big win before diving into an honest conversation about traveling with a disability. Paige shares what it's like navigating airports and airplanes, along with a memorable (and hilarious) TSA pat-down experience that you'll definitely want to hear.

We also compare our recent propeller-powered adventures. Justin flew Denver Air Connection and came away with an incredible story, while Paige and Adama kicked off their Independence Day trip to Los Angeles with an aviation twist—stopping in Las Vegas to fly JSX's ATR service into Santa Monica before continuing their July 4th celebrations.

From aviation events and unique aircraft to travel stories and plenty of laughs, this episode has something for every avgeek. Buckle up and join us for another adventure in The Exit Row!
