Wingmen Show

Two Dope Boys in a Navy jet. The Wingmen Show is a weekly podcast about challenges and opportunities in everyday life. Your hosts are two guys born in Harlem, New York previously unknown to each other. Separately, they became Navy pilots flying high performance jet aircraft on and off of aircraft carriers patrolling the world’s oceans. Their paths did not cross formally until they ended up flying for the same airline after their active-duty military service had ended. They have a wide range of experiences spanning the worlds of basketball and boxing. Drew’s father is Drew Bundini Brown, Muhammad Ali’s Wingman and coined the iconic phrase “Float Like A Butterfly Sting, Like A Bee". Martial Arts and Show Business are also areas of mutual interest. Drew has been featured nationally on television programs such as the Donahue Show and the Today Show. He has also appeared in hundreds of newspapers and magazines. Both are published authors as well as former Navy jet pilots and Commercial Airline Pilots; they retired after having flown the Boeing 777 airliner. The cultural mix of religions, immigrant parents and grandparents from Europe and the Caribbean gives them an uncommon perspective on racial matters. Melding the cultures of New York City, Pittsburgh, New Orleans, Memphis, the Caribbean and Atlanta has helped shape their worldview when combined with the life they have seen and experienced having flown extensively to countries throughout the world.They are wingmen to each other, providing advice, guidance and constructive criticism when needed. The goal of the show is to inspire and entertain those unafraid to expand their minds and perhaps learn something new in the hope that the listeners can become wingmen to others. Each one, teach one.

Sent us text! We would love to hear from you!

If you want to understand people you need to listen to them before you begin speaking. There are many good things going on in the world. The Wingman Show always aims to be positive and leave you with a positive outlook.

Although not headline news, NBA Hall of Fame alum, and beloved broadcaster on all things basketball, the one and only Charles Barkley, has quietly donated one million dollars to St. Marys Academy in New Orleans. This is the school that produced the two young ladies who proved the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry in a manner once thought to be impossible.

The world lost one of its greatest actors. James Earl Jones who appeared in a wide range of movies, Broadway plays, and VoiceOver narration for such legendary characters as the Lion King and the unmistakable voice of the character Darth Vader in the movie Star Wars. He is also one of the few people in the world who earned an EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony Awards.

No one wants to suffer a painful injury, but if you “break-a-leg” in show business like Commander Drew did when he was a thespian, that’s a good thing.

Do you have to have perfect (20/20) vision to fly an airplane?

No you don’t, just get a a pair of prescription eye glasses.

Meet a little wingman who completed a big job that helped save a life.
