with Jason Rubinbinowitz hello Ian.

Hello Jason welcome back.

Thank you.

Where have I been?

You've been doing some traveling haven't you?

I have well only a little bit.

I went to Seattle because I was bored at work and booked a flight to Seattle

as one does yeah as one does so I was there last weekend with our good buddy Jeremy who has been on the

podcast more than his fair share of times.

He's currently severing a suspension from the podcast.

Yes, out of my way to make sure I did not record a segment with him while out there.

Excellent, excellent.

Yes.

So you will not be hearing from him this time.

Although, I knew you were waiting for it, but it's not going to happen.

I'll live.

So how is Seattle?

It was good. I flew Alaska on a 737 900 ER out there, a jet blue A321 back.

I spent a little bit of time out at Boeing Field and I mean like maybe an hour and saw some pretty great stuff.
