The guys get together with former guest and special co-host, Greg Dyer! Greg brings his many years of experience in air traffic control to the discussion on air traffic control reform and the recent award by the FAA of Peraton to oversee this complex undertaking.

He has avoided this since the start of the podcast, but Basil and Chris get Ravi to open up about some of his story. Join the guys as Ravi gets uncomfortable and dives into:

• Ravi's Family Background and Upbringing: Ravi shared with Basil and Chris the story of his family's immigration journey from India to England, then Canada, and finally New Jersey, highlighting their parents' entrepreneurial spirit in starting a steel fabrication business and the impact of growing up working in a family business alongside their two older brothers.
• Impact of Upbringing on Career and Personal Development: Ravi discussed with Basil and Chris how early experiences in the family business shaped their work ethic, approach to challenges, and interpersonal skills, and how these lessons influenced their later career choices and personal growth.
• Educational and Early Career Path: Ravi recounted to Basil and Chris his educational journey from UMass Amherst to Elon College, the decision to move away from engineering to business, and the challenges of entering the workforce without a clear career path, eventually leading to roles in real estate, industrial safety, and management consulting.
• Career Transitions and Geographic Moves: Ravi described to Basil and Chris major career transitions, including leaving Booz Allen for Parsons, moving from DC to Los Angeles, and the motivations behind these decisions, such as seeking new opportunities for their family and personal growth.
• Reflections on Mental Health, Support Networks, and Advice for Others: Ravi, in conversation with Basil and Chris, reflected on the importance of mental health, the value of support networks, and offered advice to younger generations about resilience, seeking help, and building meaningful connections.
• Current Focus and Future Aspirations: Ravi shared with Basil and Chris current priorities, including focusing on family, community involvement, mentoring, and making a positive impact, while expressing a desire to continue personal and professional growth without slowing down.
