Great stories, feels like you’re in the ready room. Amazing interviews too. Bridges the gap between tactical aviation and airline flying well.

Excellent podcast which keeps getting better with each episode. The history, stories, and guests are both informative and entertaining. Repete and Fig, as military and commercial aviators themselves, take a conversational approach in their interviews with guests, intermixing humor and...Read full review »

Hands down the best part of trips is the knowledge exchanged amongst aviators and one could argue the best forum is pre-dinner side bars. Whether you’re a pair of dart drivers or part of a dirty crew aircraft, everyone appreciates the stories shared as much as those lived together. Fig, Repeat,...Read full review »

Best and most entertaining aviation related podcast available by far. A real opportunity to sit in on “hangar talk” with the legends in military aviation. Great job guys!
RicM20J via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/02/24
My only complaint is they’re unable to make more content more often with their busy schedules. This show is responsible for quite a few moments where I had to pull over to avoid wrecking while laughing, these guys not only mesh well but they’re guests just become part of the show each and every...Read full review »

Fig and Repete do an outstanding job keeping the conversation moving and preserving so many incredible aviation stories. Their guests are top-notch too!! Keep up the good work gents.
Antonio Gemma More' via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/23/23
Guests are entertaining and have great stories to tell, so long as Repete and Fig aren’t constantly interrupting the guest’s stories, talking over one another, or interrupting with tangents and peanut gallery comments
Res784 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/20/23
Listened to my first episode on my road trip after a friend suggested it. The stories were hilarious and gives a glimpse into things like aviation, military, etc. that you wouldn’t get the chance to hear about otherwise. Highly recommend!

The "So There I Was" podcast is an enthralling mix of humor, heartfelt narratives, and remarkable acts of bravery. Each episode feels like sitting at a bar at week's end, sharing the week's aviation adventures in a comfortable, inviting setting. The podcast excels in its range of...Read full review »

jumpjet231 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/14/23
Hands down the greatest aviation podcast in the world of podcasts. Aviation that’s more about the stories of aviation instead of just technical jargon. Best podcast I have ever heard
holden415 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/10/23
Amazing aviation exploits. Well worth your time. After hearing one episode you will want to go back in the catalog and starting listening from episode 1 on.

This is my go-to podcast for my daily exercise routine. Fig and Repete are fantastic cohorts. I’m not a pilot but love aviation and hearing all these stories puts me in the cockpit when I close my eyes. Love listening to Lawman. He sounds like Robert Duvall and I think about The Great Santini....Read full review »

Although I have no military background, I have been really enjoying Fig and Repete’s shows. The guests have been amazing, from OB, Lawman, Father, Nasty, Double L, to Sheriff and Gunny Go. I can’t wait for the next episode.
