✈️ Support Opposing Bases
Ad-free. Listener-supported. Eight years without missing a week.
Since 2018, Opposing Bases has been played over 4 million times in 170 countries.
The show exists because of our supporters — their questions, stories, and curiosity keep the microphones on.
💡 Why Your Support Matters
Every week, pilots and controllers around the world tune in to better understand the NAS, sharpen their skills, and learn from real stories.
Simply put: without supporters, there is no show.
We haven’t missed a week in eight years because our community shows up for us — and we work hard to show up for them.
We don’t do ads — ever.
You don’t have to fast-forward through the red tape. Even the public version is ad-free (but delayed).
Supporters get everything on time — early episodes, behind-the-scenes access, and over 400 episodes of evergreen aviation content instantly in your feed.
The only reason Opposing Bases is ad-free and consistent is because we are fueled entirely by supporters.
