In this episode of Pyro Talk, Jason sits down with Peter Rogoz to dive into the world of scripting and firing a live band pyromusical at PGI. Peter shares the behind-the-scenes challenges of bringing music and fireworks together in real time — including what it takes to script to a live performance instead of a recording. He also shares stories about the chaos of show day, the technical hurdles to get to the final product, and Peter’s unexpected adventures of getting his car stuck...twice. Plus, they talk about the magic behind the "Chicago Lights" pyromusical and what makes these shows unforgettable. If you love fireworks, live music, and a good laugh, this is one you won’t want to miss!

In this explosive episode of Pyro Talk, we’re lighting the fuse on a topic that’s sparking interest across the fireworks industry—American-made Visco fuse. Host Jason Rude sits down with Jon Donley of Ace Pyro to talk about what it takes to bring fuse manufacturing back to U.S. soil. From sourcing materials and overcoming industry hurdles to what this means for for the buyers and sellers alike, this episode dives deep into fuse production and supply chain resilience in the visco market.

Additionally, Jon helps us know what ACE PYRO can do for you! It doesn't matter if you're looking for fuse, or needing some wholesale help to fill the summer tent, Ace Pyro has your covered!

Whether you're in the business of selling fireworks and need safety fuse or you're just a fan of the 4th of July, you won’t want to miss this conversation. It’s all about timing—and this fuse is burning hot.

In this episode, we sit down with Bob Kellner of Kellner Fireworks to explore the often misunderstood world of 1.4G Proline fireworks. We dive into what it takes to legally purchase these “professional use only” articles pyrotechnic, what certifications or licenses are typically required, and how the term “professional”—though widely used—still lacks a clear definition. Bob offers insight into how the industry navigates that gray area, what buyers should know before getting involved, and how Proline 1.4G fits into the broader fireworks landscape. If you're curious about taking the next step beyond consumer fireworks, this episode is your roadmap.
