The Weekly Scrap, Firefighter Podcast

Joined by Matty Johnson to discuss his story and his journey, and all the lessons learned and learning along the way. It was an awesome scrap to be a part of, and mental health is a topic that is near and dear to my heart.

Joined on this episode by Derek Roberts, and it lived up to the promise! We  discussed how to teach new people, the challenges of changing culture from the bottom up, Fire Behavior and engine operations... and of course that is just what was planned and does not include the audience taking over with their questions and discussion!

Joined on this episode by the one and only Kevin McCart. We had a blast as we discussed the proper mindset that leads to success on the fireground, the rule of 3's, Accidental Success, Elimination of Variables- comfort and it's effect on growth- and if you know the Scrap, you know the audience took over and asked a lot of leadership and culture questions!  What a great Scrap!
