Paul and his wife had to go through something that no parents should ever have to go through: the loss of a child.

Suddenly and unexpectedly, Paul's daughter Guiliana developed a rare form of cancer that took her life in under a year. The positive impact that Guiliana was able to have on so many lives will echo in time for years to come. Paul openly shares his experience going through this trying time and what a group of rodeo linemen is achieving through their fundraiser "Climbin For Kids".

Climbin For Kids is a Lineman rodeo team that raises money for St Jude Children's Hospital. It was started to carry on Guiliana's legacy by helping kids and families through tough experiences like hers.

Derek Egroff has had an extensive career in the line trade with a huge emphasis on all things high-voltage transmission. He’s been involved with hundreds of transmission projects and assisted in creating energized bare-hand programs, helicopter procedures, and countless other endeavors over his lengthy career. Derek is now giving back to the trade as a training instructor. In this episode, we dive into a few exciting projects that he was a part of, including one of the world's only catenary systems used for power lines as well as pioneering helicopter rope access for line work in Canada. We also explore some topics around training and adult education as it relates to the trades.

Bryce is a lineman originally from Arizona, now living and working in Northern California. The question “What does it truly mean to be a journeyman lineman?” is one that I’ve asked myself many times. Bryce and I collectively have more than 40 years of experience in this industry, so we tackle this question head-on in this episode. Hopefully, you guys get some value from it, and at a minimum, you start to answer the question yourselves.

I first met Jason in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, a few years ago. We were randomly placed as pole partners in the final event of the Whiskey City Rodeo. Jason reached out to me a few weeks ago and said: "Hey, I’d love to be on the podcast if you’d have me." Of course, I said yes, and it was awesome to hear his story.

Turns out he has competed at the International Lineman’s Rodeo in Kansas 22 times in his career. If that wasn’t special enough, he and a few others decided to form a team to raise money for St. Jude’s Hospital, and they crushed it! They raised thousands of dollars and were able to present the check on stage during the awards banquet.

They are returning to the ILR this year with the team and goals of reaching new highs. If you feel called to support this cause (full details are in the episode about why they chose this cause) then you can scan the QR code in the photo above or reach out to them at [email protected]

This is Jimmy’s second time on PLP. Almost two years have passed since he was last on the show, so we had a ton of new things to catch up on. Jimmy recently started his own power line company. This is one of those things that every lineman has thought about at one point or another, so we get right into the pros and cons of running your own company as well as so much more. Plus, if you've ever thought about traveling to work in another country, you'll want to listen to this episode.

The subject of mental health amongst trade workers needs to be talked about more. Depression, divorce, and suicide are at an all-time high. Jaret Warren has been in the line trade for almost 2 decades, and like many in this trade, he has suffered with his own mental health issues, but unlike most, he was willing to sit down and talk about it. We need to do this more. We need to talk about this subject, and we need to do all we can to help before we lose more amazing family, friends, and coworkers. Much love.
