Acerca de esta escucha
The Lunatic Fringe Book is a collection of all 10 years of monthly articles written for Blue Skies magazine by Dean Ricci, a.k.a. The F***in' Pilot. Blue Skies magazine was the rebel publication. It was the new start-up that went out of its way to try to challenge people, entertain them, piss them off, make them think, keep them safer, and more than anything, embrace the amazing lifestyle that skydiving can offer to those who join its ranks. It pushed back hard at the PC revolution taking place all around and talked about events and subjects that were borderline taboo not only in the sport and the industry, but in the culture.
BSM gave voice to topics and subjects that the establishment either could not or would not talk about as skydiving stretched deeper into the mainstream, requiring a higher level of decorum from those at the top because the stakes kept getting higher and higher. The establishment had to be that way, but we didn’t.
In this book, you'll find stories and memories that span a 10-year career behind the keyboard documenting a more than 26-year career in one of the wildest, most incredible sports and communities that is the driving force behind some absolutely spectacular, over-the-top, and sometimes difficult to believe antics from some of the best and least known members of the airsports world.
Compiled straight from the magazine and put in book form, you can literally see the evolution of the sport as you listen through the more than 90 articles broaching every subject imaginable, and even a few unimaginable. If skydiving is your sport, then this is a must-have, and if skydiving is something you're considering, this will give you quite a sneak peek into who and what it takes to call those blue skies your home.

Historia
Human flight is one of the last great challenges on Earth. Not like how the Wright brothers flew, but how we fly in our dreams. This is the goal of the Wingsuit Landing Project: to soar through the sky at speeds up to one hundred miles per hour and to land without the aid of a parachute. This project is the creation of 37-year-old Jeb Corliss, Jr., a Southern Californian who seeks to emulate a mode of flight more like a flying squirrel than bird or plane.

Historia
Tom Segura is known for his twisted takes and irreverent comedic voice. But after a few years of crazy tours and churning out podcasts weekly, all while parenting two young children, he desperately needs a second to himself. It’s not that he hates his friends and family — he’s not a monster — he’s just beat, which is why his son’s (ruthless) first full sentence, “I’d like to play alone, please,” has since become his mantra.

Tim Kennedy has a problem; he only feels alive right before he’s about to die. Kennedy, a Green Beret, decorated Army sniper, and UFC headliner, has tackled a bull with his bare hands, jumped out of airplanes, dove to the depths of the ocean, and traveled the world hunting poachers, human traffickers, and the Taliban. But he’s also the same man who got kicked out of the police department, fire department, and as an EMT, before getting two women pregnant four days apart, and finally, been beaten up by his Special Forces colleagues.

Historia
The word conquer has changed meaning for Bryan Anderson. As a U.S. army sergeant in Iraq, it meant taking down the enemy. After becoming Iraq’s fourth triple amputee from a roadside explosive, what he had to conquer got a bit more personal. On October 23, 2005, the moment Bryan looked down and realized he no longer had legs, he cracked a joke. It was a tragedy that could break many, but Bryan transformed it into something positive, something that propelled him forward.

Misanthrope. Iconoclast. Apostate. Drunk. Many words have been used to describe Doug Stanhope, but rarely has “hopeful” been one of them. However, heading into 2016, Stanhope peered through the apocalyptic fog and saw a forecast that was more rainbows than acid rain: His first book was set for release, his new stand-up special was in the can, and he was about to film a television pilot with his friend and confidant Johnny Depp. The only thing that could stop Doug was himself, and that’s exactly what he did.

Historia
In the tradition of the late, great George Carlin, Corey Taylor, the lead singer of Slipknot and Stone Sour, sounds off in hilarious fashion about the many vagaries of modern life that piss him off. Whether it's people's rude behavior in restaurants and malls, the many indignities of air travel, eye-searingly terrible fashion choices, dangerously clueless drivers, and - most of all - the sorry state of much modern music, Taylor's humor and insight cover civil society's seeming decline.

Then came his legendary meltdown on-air, with 6 million people listening, after which Lange pulled himself together enough to go to a buddy's bachelor party in Amsterdam.

Stuffed full of ridiculous stories of bad decisions, debauchery, and sexual recklessness, Assholes Finish First starts where I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell left off, then proceeds to "some next-level shit."

You're a skydiver?
Read it! With your ears! Dean managed to get into the sport at the best and worst time in skydiving, the 90s. He's been around the world and back and has done it all. No, really, he's done it ALL. Not only that his narration doesn't make you want to kill yourself. His podcast is also the best skydive podcast out there.
