Every week, Doug and Drew settle in for a conversation that feels like grabbing a coffee with two friends who happen to have front-row seats to the entire world of flight. Their The Next Trip-An Aviation and Travel Podcast is built on a combined four decades inside the industry-one from the cockpit as a professional pilot, the other from the intricate heart of a major airline's hub operations. This unique perspective means you're not just getting the headlines; you're getting the context, the personal operational stories, and the behind-the-scenes realities that only insiders can provide. They’re joined often by guests who deepen the discussion, creating a genuine network for AvGeeks and curious travelers alike. Listening to this podcast feels like being part of a hangar talk where the topics range from breaking aviation news and deep-dives into airline logistics to the simple, shared joy of planning your next adventure. It’s that specific blend of technical knowledge and passionate fandom that makes each episode both informative and deeply relatable. Whether you’re an aviation professional, a frequent flyer, or someone who just looks up when a plane passes overhead, Doug and Drew have a way of making the vast world of air travel feel connected and endlessly fascinating.
