Do You Even Train?

I was recently, somewhat, challenged by Conduct_unbecoming to shift gears of the podcast. So, I took his advice. 

When is the last time you trained for your job? Like, actually trained? 

Check Your Ego.

Have you guys heard this story out of Lake Lure North Carolina? Holy Sh!t. 

Perspective. (What makes you uncomfortable? Pt 2)

Do you have a group of people you are comfortable around? I do. 

What makes you uncomfortable?

For some of us, we are always in our comfort zone. 

Do Better!

Nice interview with @salty_operators in Instagram. He's got years of experience that we discuss about operations and day to day stuff that goes along with the attitude of Do Better. 

I'm running out of conspiracy theories!!!

Out of all the conspiracy theories over the last 3 years, I would say 99% have come true. Listen to Tucky from rancid_commode go over some of the more famous ones. 

Now You're Just Pissing Me Off!

These podcasts nearly write themselves at this point. All these Chiefs are messing up so bad that it's making my writing easy. 

Bring Back Bullying!

It's time to bring back bullying. My whole life I've hated bullying and always stood up for the little guys.  I think it's time we bring it back with the way ya'll been acting lately. 

Another Show You're Gonna Hate.

Let's just let the hate build. I know most of you don't like this topic. So that's why I'm talking about it now. 

What you're doing is dangerous!!! Stop with the DEI hiring.

When your life is on the line, who do you want to be working with? The most qualified or the most diverse?

Go Home pt 2

Continuation of last week's episode. I am tired of hearing that people don't want to work or that their feelings got hurt.  If you can't or won't do the job, then you need to home. 

Go Home!!!

In lieu of all the weak people in this world, This one is for you. If you are easily offended, don't listen. And just go home. This one will surely offend some people. 

It's time for the first responder Olympics

I was watching the olympics and it occurred to me....we need to have the first responder Olympic Games.  

 

Playing the Numbers.

I would never racially profile someone but I do play the numbers.

Here's Your Sign!

Comedian Bill Engval had a joke about stupid people should have to wear a sign. I truly believe a lot of them do. 

Friendships through trauma.

This was recorded with my portable equipment. Sound quality is not the best. But it does talk about the bonds that are created through trauma. 

I can't believe I did this!!!

Have you ever committed to something with not really knowing anything about it? 

NO SHOCK ADVISED!!!!

Check out this candid interview with Papa Shock from the meme page No Shock Advised.

So now they arresting EMS and Fire personnel?

Can EMS and Fire be arrested for blocking traffic with their rigs while on a call?

How Much Worse Can Customer Service Get?

I can not believe how some people still have a job with the customer service skills. 

It's a Full Moon. You Know What That Means.

Lunacy. Is it real? I found a few studies on it. Here's what I found. 

Sick and Twisted!

As first responders we have a sick and twisted sense of humor. So much so that we can't post all of the things we want because we would for sure lose our social media, our podcasts, our spouses and without a doubt our jobs. 

We could all use a little extra cash.

Just a few simple ideas to help with the rising cost of living in today's tough times. 

How Many Times?

I laugh when people say they had a, "rough night" because they had to get up 5 times after midnight. What did you do the rest of the night? Sleep?

First Responders are like addicts.

First responders are like addicts. Listen and see why.

AMR IS DONE THIS TIME!!!

AMR recently lost the contract to San Bernardino County. A lot of people are worried about their jobs. I can assure you that your job is still there. 

Is Chick-fil-A good enough to be fired for?

Was the firing of a DC firefighter warranted after stopping at Chick-fil-A during the response to a 911 call?

Your Dream Job? How’s the pay?

Maybe it's time to quit your, "dream job." If you've been at your job more than two years, and you're still complaining about the pay.......

Isolation

Once again those with all the letters after their names got it wrong again. Why do first responders want to live in the middle of nowhere, on 20 acres, no neighbors, and off the grid? 

Another Pizza Party?

Believe it for not a pizza party can work to bring up morale. It's not about the food, it's about how you do it.  I was able to do it for just 99 cents. 

I’m Feeling Just A Little Bit Off Today.

Recently I had an, "off day." I don't even know what caused it. But listen as I try to unpack the emotions and feelings from that day. 

Jackin’ Calls and pissin’ people off.

Do you still enjoy running calls? Even the the ones that you really don't need to respond to?
