Fantastic Podcast! I love the stories from the N.Y. guys and really enjoy the banter between them and the crew. Thank you for this great Podcast! I take something away from each episode!
I really enjoy these guys and their banter. I hope more current members get to appear on the podcast. Great humor and good stories. Sometimes I don’t listen to the 2 hour + podcast episodes, but I realize that many retired members and career firefighters love that. Highly recommend this podcast, love it when they ‘bust balls’!
Love all the stories told by the awesome guest! True heroes!
I’ve tried numerous times to listen to this podcast and even tried on different platforms; however the audio is absolutely TERRIBLE! You’d think they’d spend a little money so the listeners could actually hear what’s being said!
Always entertaining and real. No bullsh*t
