...and, FWIW, I just watched the first episode. that Jared Isaacman guy comes across as a really nice and down to earth guy (pun intended :-))

He appears to be self-made and is a self-confessed flight and space nut who put his dreams into action.

From the Wikipedia page "In 2004, Isaacman began taking flying lessons. In 2009, he set a world record for circumnavigating the globe.[7][9] He received a bachelor's degree in professional aeronautics from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in 2011. He is flight qualified in multiple military jet aircraft.[4] In his 20s, he flew in many airshows, but by his 30s, he had stopped flying as such.[8]
