“I’ve only just found this podcast and it’s a shame it doesn’t seem to be active anymore as it’s brilliant researched and very accessible without detailed knowledge of aircraft and aviation. The two part rundown of the Columbia space shuttle disaster in particular is the best I’ve come across, and...”Read full review »

“Superb. Exceptional presentation. Amazing attention to detail. High entertainment value. Spoken and read so well. I thought I’d lost the podcast after the first listening and panicked. This is a great podcast by any comparison. Bravo Sir!”

“Easily the best podcast I listen to - the stories are presented in a detailed manner but in a way that makes it easy for even someone who doesn’t have previous in depth knowledge about flight to understand. I’ve listened to every episode multiple times. I would love if the host would continue to...”Read full review »

“I love the way these stories unfold, with the bare facts of each accident being described first and then the story as to what actually happened in the cockpit and on the ground is gradually revealed. All told in a calm and empathetic way. The narrator appears to have an excellent understanding of...”Read full review »

“It’s so refreshing to listen to a well-researched podcast where there is no banter and no podcast themed cocktails or any such tackiness. Also, I really appreciate the measured, respectful way the host talks about the pilots, even those whom the media has scapegoated. So much more valuable to...”Read full review »

Some air accident-related media just copy-paste Wikipedia entries, but ITBB sounds like it relies on primary sources and documents. Bravo!”
