The Byte: Pat Wetzel ~ Floating on a Bubble of Magic
Season 17, Episode 172, Apr 15, 12:02 AM
Greetings all and Happy Sunday! I'm back with another episode of the podcast!
My guest this time, Pat Wetzel, is an author, a podcaster (you can check out her podcast here) as well as cancer survivor! She also, GULP, flies non-engine planes (read gliders...) and floats on wind, bubbles of air, updrafts-whatever will keep her aloft! In this episode we talk a few miracles, one which happened when her father died, and then another, when she was up in her plane surfing on air. Suffice it to say, but this is one adventurous and brave human being, who is only tethered to this planet because gravity exists! Her best selling book, "Bump in the Road" can be purchased on Amazon here, and you can discover more about Pat here! I loved every minute of our conversation and guess what? I adore Pat as well!
You will not catch me up in a glider, or any plane for that matter. I think most of you know that I am an avid plane avoider (is there such a thing, there should be!) and run away from airports whenever I chance getting too close! So it was with absolute horror that I listened to Pat talking about going up in a plane WITHOUT AN ENGINE!
Your bit of beauty this week is from the documentary film "Winged Migration" which follows birds all over the planet as they make their annual migrations...and some of the film was captured by glider! To say this movie is exquisite and beautiful DOES NOT DO IT JUSTICE! This is a 10 minute extended version but if you have the chance, watch the whole thing!
REMEMBER TO RATE AND REVIEW IF YOU PLEASE (OR EVEN IF YOU DON'T PLEASE, I AM NOT ABOVE GROVELING!)
See you next week for the very next episode!
