My father owns a small 1953 Tripacer and when I am in that tiny little plane I feel safe. However when I fly commercial I tend to get a little nervous. Which would be fine if I fly once a year but sometimes I fly 3 times in a day. One way I deal with this is with my ipod and the podcast of a NPR show called This American Life. Something about the stories. The calm coolness of Ira Glass voice whatever it is it gets me through a flight even the bumpy ones. I get lost in the story and the way they set it up you can close your eyes and see the story unfold. Showtime picked up This American Life and they now are on season two of a TV series and it does not disappoint. The episode above is a great sample. No worries if you get hooked you can download season one from itunes... After watching the main story above I had one of those full circle moments. It's the line at the end when Michael says "I really don't have time to waste on fear."
