About this listen

Jesse (pilot) and Sharon (author) started a podcast because they communicate better when someone's listening. They're trying to stay married forever for their four kids, and because they truly think they love each other.

This dynamic travel duo also share their secrets so listeners can travel like locals.


Jesse is a retired military and current airline pilot. Sharon, an author, educator, and artist, held down the homefront during his military career, but now she's determined to explore the world one standby flight at a time.
