#21 - Jason Mansour - Yelp TB Elite and Hurricane Hunter

Jason M, is a member of the Yelp Tampa Bay Elite squad who happens to have the craziest job imaginable – he flies into hurricanes and other major storms to track data.

We cover the following topics: -The basics of Jason's job. -Jason walks us through his most recent flight into Tropical Storm Colin. -The history of Hurricane Hunting and what advances have been made in the industry. -The bigger the storm, not necessarily meaning the bumpier ride for Jason. -Scary and close calls for Jason over the years. -Hurricane Sandy -What Jason does when he's not flying. -The history of what led to Jason's career. -Doing what you love for a living. -Jason's future and his upcoming move from Tampa Bay. -Follow Jason M on Yelp and Twitter .
