Well sort of. Pod-cast is the proper term. If you’re into this frequent flyer madness- then you’ve probably already heard of UPGRD. They record a new episode every week discussing airline travel, frequent flyer/stay programs and airline news among other things.

This past Thursday I spent an enjoyable evening discussing US Airways and Dividend Miles along with Mike, Fozz, Hunter and Ben.

Aside from US Airways, we also spoke about Delta’s over-fly incident, personal choices on which airline to fly out of Boston Logan, and a nasty incident that involved me, a flight attendant, Iceland and a London to Charlotte US Airways flight.

Tempting, isn’t it? Listen here. Or external player, if you prefer.

Alrighty. This is sort of a big deal for me. It’s also I reason why I’ve been quiet for the last few days. I just applied for The Best Job In The World which makes me excited yet nervous at the same time. My application just got processed and published. Step 1 done, few more steps to go.

The Best Job In The World is a very clever marketing gimmick Hamilton Island is using to promote tourism into the region. They are offering a 6 month job for one talented person. Could it possibly be Kinglobjaw?

Anyway, sifting through all the videos you’ll see a lot of people get undressed, everyone talking about doing anything to get this job, and the lamest of all was the “it is currently x temp here so bring me to Hamilton Island”. There were also a lot of good ones, oddly enough most from Canada.

Given my love for travel, I decided to apply, but with an aviation twist. I stand to be original. Music isn’t too bad either, eh?

Anyway, here is my app: http://www.islandreefjob.com/#/applicants/watch/7nBRJ9zVgMs

Here’s my application video,

Be sure to tell your friends about this- spread the word about Kinglobjaw’s quest. Rate my video, drop me a line, or comment this post. Thanks.

P.S. If I end up being selected, this blog will surely turn in a different direction for 6 months. Question is, will I survive without setting foot on a plane for such a long time? =)
