Betty In The Sky With A Suitcase!

Episode 44 Last week I was on the BBC world service it was such an absurd lead in...it went something like this...A woman in the Congo was raped and forced to kill her own baby and then we hear from Betty who doesn't want to let mobile phones be used inflight?! Talk about strange bedfellows!  This show is all about things that just don't go together.  We hear stories about cooking while sleeping, volunteer snorkeling and barf to go. Along with stories about things you really don't want to put together...like the huge fat person and the empty airplane seat...next to you! At the end of the episode I play the whole BBC interview!

Episode 43 An easy day at work is non-eventful, but those days when crazy things happen... while more stressful...make for much better stories. In this show we hear about swearing, puking, panties falling off, a burning smell on the airplane, yelling and at the end of the episode...a ticking bomb!  These are some hair-raising stories and then we actually have some hair stories. So...it's a hAIRy episode of Betty in the Sky with a Suitcase!    Music by www.garageband.com "Crazy" by Nicola

Episode 42 So...I know what your thinking...Betty the Serious Slayer?  Well I was a big fan of the tv show...and Betty and Buffy are both kinda silly names.  For many years Airline employees were beaten down, sad and grumpy.  But lately things are starting to look alittle brighter.  This episode is rapid fire jokes and funny stories...so basically I am tring to slay the serious with some seriously funny stories.  I just hope I don't get a wooden stake to the heart for the stupid title (or for offending anyone.)    Music by www.garageband.com  "Joke Thing" by Talawah

Episode 41 This pilot told me a funny story about why this ditsy Flight Attendant decided to fly and it was so funny that I started to ask other Flight Attendants and pilots why they decided to fly.  And sure enough I found alot of funny stories! Later on in the episope I tell why I decided to fly, and at the end of the show a very special passenger shares a story with us.   Music by www.garageband.com  "Fly" by The Good Sirs

Episode 40 Surprise surprise...this episode features funny airline stories involving coffee, tea and a little romance! People always ask me about the mile high club...so we have one of those stories along with some jolting coffee tales and a few flirtatious travel stories. The picture is of my "Rapa Nui Romeo"! Music by www.garageband.com  "Coffee Song" by Dean Krippaehne  

Episode 39 For some strange reason people associate air travel with peanuts...people want their peanuts on the airplane. So this show has some funny stories about peanuts along with a bunch of nuts (crazy nutty people)! At the end of the episode I tell my own story of how I was seen as the crazy nut on Easter Island! Music by a great Rapa Nui Band called Matato'a.  You can get more information about them at www.matatoa.com  

Episode 38 I would like to welcome you aboard episode 38 which is full of outrageous stories in the timeline of a typical flight.  We've got a sexy safety demonstration,  puke in the first class desserts and tp in the pantyhose!  So sit back relax...and enjoy the wild ride!

Episode 37 It's sort of an understatement to say that Airline Life is Wild as you'll see in this wild episode of Betty in the Sky with a Suitcase! We have wild life stories starring leopards, gorillas, turtles and snakes.  Along with just "plane" wild stories Contact... flywithbetty@gmail.com   Music by www.garageband.com Live on the Wild Side by Damian Grove

Episode 36 This episode could be called Blondes Take Flight... but being a blonde I wanted a non hair color specific term to describe a moment where your alittle slow on the uptake. So this show features some outrageous stories involving lost uniform skirts, burnt shoes and choking on an airline pillow? But don't you worry... the skies are not full  of dingbats but anybody can have a dim moment. Music by www.garageband.com "Don't You Worry" by Dean Krippaehne  

Episode 35 Ladies and Gentlemen we would like to welcome you aboard Celebrity Express!  Hold on to your armrests as we navigate through some turbulent and funny star stories. At the end of the episode I'll tell you about the most impressive passenger I have ever met on the airplane.   Music by www.garageband.com  "Stars" by Sulphur  

Episode 34 In this show we hear about ghosts, angels and unexplained events on the airplane and on layovers.  It's basically Airline paranormal if you will...I'm not saying I believe in ghosts or angels...I'm just saying that you never know.  Whatever you believe...these are some really good stories! Music... Paranormal Sunrise by Endsville www.endsville.ca or www.garageband.com

Episode 33 This show is jam packed full with hijinks and pranks on the airplane, from the silly to the sublime!  Lets get the party started!  Music by www.garageband.com  Airplane by Sidestreet Blues A special thanks to  www.landsend.com  for sending me the great suitcase!

Episode 32 Who knew there are so many Airline stories starring our furry friends! In this show we hear about racoons, gorillas, dogs, monkeys, cows, birds and ferrets all flyings the friendly skies.    Hang on for a "wild" ride. Music by www.podsafemusic.com  "Betty" by the Lavcivious Biddies

Episode 31 I'm just back from Tobago and something I miss when I have a break from work is the Galley Talk. This show has a lot of funny stories from the galley. We hear about the lower galley, famous people in the galley and at the end of the episode... we hear about an experiment on the airplane that had all the passengers cheering!   Music by www.garageband.com  "Everything Good" by Twintwelve

Episode 30 Like every work environment there are power struggles in the airline industry.  You have stand offs between the Flight Attendants and passengers, the Captains and First Officers and Flight Attendants with each other.  Now on paper that probably doesn't sound funny...but it really is. At the end of the episode I tell about a Show Down that I regularly have with passengers on the airplane. Music by www.garageband.com "Struggle" by Scott Fisher

Episode 29 I record all types of stories and then I try to find a theme for an episode.  Strangely enough a common thread seemed to be stories with people in various stages of undress? So among the underwear and naked stories we hear my own most embarrassing moment and at the end of the episode we hear about a really famous lady in her underwear on the airplane! Music by www.podsafemusic.com  "Betty" by The Lavcivious Biddies  

Episode 28 Roger...or Roger that...is what a Pilot says all day long.  It indicates that a message has been recieved.  But...is the message always understood?  Are we always on the same page?   Words can mean different things to different people which makes for some hilarious stories in the cockpit and the cabin. The end of the episode has a great segment about the Aircraft manufacturer Fokker.  Roger? Roger that.  Music by www.garageband.com "Cabin to Cockpit" by The Belvederes

Episode 27 I'm sure each and every one of you have funny things happen when you are at work, but Flight Attendants and Pilots average day just seems to have more of them. We hear about the Flight Attendants having to open the door...inflight!  Plus alot of wacky airplane lavatory stories and at the end of the show I tell a story about an especially friendly famous gal. Music by www.garageband.com "Flying" by The Catch

Episode 26 An airplane is a "big metal tube" with hundreds of people crammed inside speeding through the sky.  Is it any wonder that now and again a passenger goes slightly crazy? We hear of passengers spitting, fighting and generally causing havoc on the airplane.  Nothing like alittle violence for the holidays?  Don't worry there are plenty of laughs too!
