NSSGA's new Director of Membership Growth & Engagement, Kelly Kanaras, joins Emily to humanize the critical issue of work zone safety. Drawing on her infrastructure background, Kelly discusses the "Watch for Us" campaign and the urgent need to address distracted and aggressive driving.  Together, they explore how personal experiences transform safety from a professional obligation to a deeply human priority. Kelly recalls standing with a flagger as traffic roared past at 65 mph, witnessing workers' vulnerability firsthand. Discussing the hundreds of lives lost in 2021 alone, she and Emily urge drivers to see work zones not as an annoyance, but as a workplace for someone's family. In essence, they highlight the sobering physics of accidents and the power every driver has to save lives. Main Themes: The impact of the "Watch for Us" campaign on work zone awareness. The life-altering consequences of distracted and aggressive driving. Humanizing work zone employees: seeing them as loved ones, not just obstacles. Understanding the physics of speed: the "football field" distance of a five-second distraction. Shifting driver attitudes from frustration to empathy and shared responsibility. The role of compelling testimonials in bringing safety statistics to life. Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions: Kelly joins the podcast to talk about her experience visiting a road construction work zone on the side of a highway, and shares how it changed how she drives. Have you ever had an experience at work that changed your behavior in your personal life?  Kelly shares that while she was in the work zone, she saw drivers using their cell phones. How does eliminating distractions connect to other safety topics?  Does anyone have a story they'd like to share about distracted driving or road construction work zones? Key Takeaways: "These people are not just people who work in work zones. They're someone's father, their mother, sister, brother, partner or child." "It is an incredibly vulnerable feeling because you know in your mind it only takes one second of them looking away to answer a text and they hit you." "Stats show that at 55 miles per hour, your car can travel the length of a football field in five seconds. So a lot can happen in that time." "We all share the responsibility to slow down, eliminate distractions, and watch out for the people working just feet away from that traffic."

Our featured story: a teenager in provincial care is found dead on a northwestern B.C. trail near Highway 16—aka the notorious 'Highway of Tears'—one of many First Nations victims in the area.

Traditional safety metrics often miss the human factors contributing to serious harm, emphasizing the need for human-centric approaches that address stress, fatigue, and psychological risks. In this "In Case You Missed It" podcast, you'll hear why Jonathan English, CEO of Evotix, believes that 2026 is the time for a complete system rebuild to help companies reach meaningful SIF reduction.

On Today's Show: To Support And Subscribe: https://thehotshotwakeup.substack.com/Authorities in Chile have arrested four suspects in connection with the current wildfires that have destroyed entire towns and led to 21 confirmed fatalities. One of the fires was said to have been started in a Eucaliptis grove, an industrial timber farm. The timber industry in Chile is massive, and timber products are the 2nd largest export for the country. There has been long standing tension between the indigenous populations and the current government over these large timber operations. Both sides have been using the wildfire narrative as a form of protest and as a reason for a crackdown. Zeke Lunder joins me for a conversation about these recent fires and the history behind these long time tensions. It's not a cut and dry issue, and there is a lot to discuss.

Ross Boeker, Manager of Safety Services at Vulcan Materials, joins Emily to discuss shifting safety leadership from "command and control" to a growth mindset. Exploring how "humble inquiry" and experimentation bridge the gap between corporate policy and field reality, Ross shares how a failed PPE mandate and a successful road project demonstrated that involving workers builds the trust and ownership necessary for better safety results and compliance. Main Themes: From Clarity in Chaos by Megan Tranter: "A crucial element of leading with a growth mindset is encouraging experimentation." From Next Generation Safety Leadership by Clive Lloyd: Trust doesn't exist outside of a relationship. Trust is relational, not structural. Trust is the primary currency for leaders. Without trust, even the best programs and initiatives will not be embraced. Workers don't "own" problems when they aren't involved in solving them. Ways to Build Trust: Develop a relationship, even if it is just a few moments in the field, to develop a "micro-relationship" and build some rapport. Understand that simply saying your door is open is not effective if you have not made it safe for people to bring you problems. Also, "open door" suggests people must come to you, rather than you actually engaging them where they are at. Be humble, solicit input, and accept input even if you haven't asked for it. Your eyes may be opened to obstacles you did not know existed. Don't show up as the "knower of things." Engaging in what Ed Schein called "Humble Inquiry" builds trust, shows that you don't have all the answers, but are genuinely interested in learning and pursuing mutual gains. When asked for guidance or assistance that you aren't necessarily able to provide, offer to work through it together (and LEARN together). Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions: In this episode, Emily and Ross talk about leadership perspectives on safety and health, and what a growth mindset can mean when working in this field. Do you feel like we have a culture where people can suggest process improvements to safety and health policies? Ross shares an example of a policy that was written with boots on the ground input, shelved at the management level, then later implemented. What does this example show us about the benefits of policies that start with the people on the ground? Does anyone have a story they would like to share about a leadership interaction that made them feel their input was valuable? Key Takeaways: "When you allow stakeholders to experiment and have input, that leads to innovation and really a greater sense of ownership." "A leader with a growth mindset knows the importance of modeling vulnerability. Showing that you don't have all the answers... demonstrates authenticity and openness, which creates trust."

The provided audio excerpts feature a speaker discussing a conspiracy theory connecting the recent crash of UPS Flight 2976 with the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and the simultaneous death of Dick Cheney. The speaker points out numerous "coded" correlations, such as the flight number matching the official 9/11 death toll (2976) and the altitude of the crash relating to the second plane that struck the World Trade Center (Flight 175). Furthermore, the speaker links the crash's location (Muhammad Ali airport) and the election of a Muslim mayor in New York City to an alleged pattern of intentional, scripted media events designed to produce irony and symbolism. The speaker rejects the idea that these connections are merely coincidence, suggesting instead that major events are pre-planned simulations orchestrated by the same powerful entities.That is a very interesting request, especially given how much of the source material is focused on examining patterns and connections. It is certainly helpful to isolate the specific claims and observations made by the speaker.Here are five quotes from the source material, followed by a list of the connections the speaker observed:"Flight 2976 UPS crash 2976 911 death toll." (This quote is the speaker's original tweet that drew the connection between the flight number and the number of 9/11 fatalities.)"It's not like the media is objectively just reporting stuff for us. Um, everything has an agenda." (This captures the speaker's core belief about mainstream media reporting.)"What we're suggesting here is this coincidence the result of intentionality? Was it scheduled? Was it faked?" (This clarifies the central question of the speaker's open inquiry into the event.)"To go outside of that box and include other possibilities such as pre-scheduled scripted events. Uh that would be something you would reach with an open mind, open inquiry outside their closed system." (This explains the speaker's view of what constitutes "open-mindedness" regarding major media events.)"No, the purpose of media is to conform you to their prefabricated events." (This defines the speaker's asserted primary function of media.)The speaker uses the term "coincidence" to describe a series of connections between the UPS Flight 2976 crash and the 9/11 events, suggesting that these connections indicate "intentionality," "scheduling," or "scripting".The specific connections noted are:Flight Number/Death Toll Match: The flight number, 2976, matches the official 9/11 death toll (2,976).Altitude Correlation: The plane reached 175 ft. This number correlates with United Airlines Flight 175, which was the second plane to hit the World Trade Center on 9/11.Airport/Hijacker Name: The crash occurred near the Muhammad Ali airport. Muhammad Ata was the lead hijacker in the 9/11 attacks.Contemporaneous Terror Plot: There was a breaking terror plot in Dearborn, Michigan, involving individuals named Muhammad Ali and Muham Mount Moot.Fatalities in Wiki: At one point, the total fatalities listed on the Wiki page for the event was 911 (though the speaker notes it had previously been 411).Dick Cheney's Timing: The crash occurred on the same day that Dick Cheney died. Cheney is noted to have a historical association with 9/11.Visual Symbolism (Plane Hitting Building): The plane crashed into a building, which the speaker notes is reminiscent of the Pentagon or the Twin Towers, along with the subsequent dramatic flames.Visual Symbolism (Faces in Smoke): The side view of the explosion in the Wikipedia article looked like a giant cat face. This is compared to a famous example of a devil face seen in the smoke photography of 9/11.Political/Irony Theme: The crash followed Zohan winning the mayoralty of New York City. This led to a flood of 9/11 imagery and people noticing the irony of New York electing a Muslim mayor followed by a plane hitting a building.5 Selected QuotesList of Coincidences and Connections

Emily welcomes Rachel Proper from Caterpillar Safety Services, for a special episode in recognition of National Diabetes Month. Rachel shares a deeply personal and powerful story about her 13-year-old daughter's recent diagnosis with Type 1 diabetes. She explains how her own family history with the disease allowed her to recognize the subtle but serious symptoms, leading to an early diagnosis that prevented a life-threatening situation. This episode is a crucial listen for everyone, as it details the specific signs of both high and low blood sugar. Rachel provides a firsthand account of the symptoms her daughter experienced - from unintentional weight loss and increased hunger to excessive thirst and urination. The conversation also explores the importance of fostering a "culture of care" in the workplace, where employees feel psychologically safe and supported, whether they choose to disclose a health condition or not. Rachel's story is a poignant reminder of how awareness and early detection can save lives. Main Themes: The signs and symptoms of high blood sugar (hyperglycemia), such as weight loss, excessive thirst, and frequent urination. The signs and symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), such as shakiness, paleness, confusion, and fatigue. The role of family history and personal experience in recognizing health warning signs. The seriousness of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a life-threatening complication of diabetes. The importance of creating a workplace with strong psychological safety. How a "culture of care" encourages openness and allows coworkers and leaders to provide appropriate support. Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions: In this episode, Rachel shares about how her daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Thanks to her awareness of the disease, Rachel and her daughter were able to seek medical attention and get her treatment before there were any serious complications. How can we relate this kind of awareness and quick thinking to safety on site? What do you think are some of the benefits of sharing important medical information with coworkers?  Does anyone have a story they would like to share about recognizing the symptoms of a disease or condition? Key Takeaways: "Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease. Our body attacks insulin-producing cells in the pancreas."   "Early detection of diabetes can prevent severe complications, including death."   "A culture of care with strong psychological safety encourages openness about health conditions."   "Employees don't have to disclose they're diabetic, but sharing can help coworkers respond appropriately."   "Awareness of diabetes symptoms can help catch the disease early and save lives."

With World Mental Health Day approaching next week, today's episode features host Emily Hargrove, NSSGA's Director of Occupational Safety and Health, as she explores the critical link between mental health and workplace safety in the aggregates and mining industry. Highlighting how an individual's mental well-being directly impacts their ability to work safely, she reveals the ways in which stress and anxiety affect job performance and overall safety. Emily transparently shares her journey, details how exposure to serious incidents in her safety career impacted her mental state and led to burnout, and advocates for mental health as a core safety issue, not an "extra." She stresses normalizing discussions on mental well-being and seeking support via counseling or EAPs, as well as the vital role of leaders' in fostering a psychologically safe workplace. This episode reminds us all that every day, and especially World Mental Health Day, is the right day to champion a holistic approach to occupational safety to nurture both the body and mind of the workforce. Main Themes: Mental health is a core safety issue. Workplace stress impacts focus and job safety. Emily shares her personal safety career's mental toll. Normalize conversations on mental well-being and counseling. Utilize mental health resources like EAPs. Leaders must encourage mental health support. Foster a psychologically safe workplace for the "whole person." Insights for aggregates, mining, and industrial safety to improve safety culture. Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions: In this episode, Emily shares with the audience about how mental health is key to safety and health. How do you describe our company culture around mental health? Are there any areas for growth?  Emily shares that during her career, working daily with materials about serious injuries and fatalities and STCKY (stuff that can kill you) started to impact her mental health. She was able to reach out and get support. Does everyone know how to access our Employee Assistance Program?  Does anyone have a story they would like to share about mental health and how it can impact our daily work?  Key Takeaways: "It shows up in their focus, their decision making and ultimately their safety on the job." "The risk of a mistake goes way up. And in this line of work, one small mistake can have very serious consequences." "That's why mental health is really a safety issue. It's not an extra or a soft topic. It's at the core of keeping people safe." "Everything became STCKY and it really had an impact on my mental well being and how I was walking around in the world." "I realized I needed some help. I needed an outlet to talk about and process those parts of my job and how it was affecting me." "We need to normalize, talking about counseling, about therapy, about needing outlets for help and support with our mental health." "We should feel comfortable checking in on how people are doing mentally, not just physically." "The strongest safety culture is one that takes care of the whole person because our people are our most important resource and supporting their mental health supports everything we do."

Chief Bryan Adams joins Dave to talk about fire safety in your home.

This episode dives into a critical article arguing that the diving industry too often fails to learn effectively from fatalities, not because of individual mistakes, but due to systemic shortcomings. It distinguishes between “first stories”, simple narratives that assign blame, and “second stories”, deeper explorations into context, drift from safety standards, and the normalisation of deviance.The tragic death of Linnea Mills is used as a case study, showing how multiple factors, equipment incompatibility, insufficient supervision, and the challenges of a remote location, aligned to create a disaster. Rather than focusing only on compliance or individual error, the article calls for a systems-based approach to safety: stronger feedback loops, better emergency preparedness, and a culture where speaking up about risks is encouraged.For divers, instructors, and responders, this also underscores the importance of effective pre-hospital care. Here are key resources:Divers Alert Network: First Aid & Emergency CareWHO: Prehospital Trauma Care SystemsNAEMT: Prehospital Trauma Life Support (PHTLS)EMS World: Best Practices in Prehospital CareBy combining systemic safety improvements with robust pre-hospital care readiness, the industry can better prepare for emergencies and reduce the likelihood of preventable tragedies.You can read the blog post here: https://www.thehumandiver.com/blog/we-don-t-learn-from-diving-fatalities-and-here-s-whyYou can contact Gareth Lock here: https://www.thehumandiver.com/contact-us-2025

Since 1994, the Washington Department of Transportation has operated a roadside memorial program that allows for the creation and installation of signs along state highways in honor of victims of fatal collisions. Washington was the first state in the nation to start a roadside memorial program, and there are now more than 1,000 signs posted along state highways bearing a message such as “Reckless Driving Costs Lives” or “Please Don’t Drink and Drive” above the name of a crash victim. Nearly 70% of the roughly 500 signs installed in the first 15 years of the program are still standing.   The Columbian recently reported on WSDOT’s current efforts to collect public feedback  about the future of its roadside memorial program and possible changes to it, such as limiting how long the signs can be up for and how often they can be renewed by family members. Kelly Moyer, a staff reporter at The Columbian, joins us for more details, including concerns that family members who had paid for memorial signs shared with her.  We also hear from Sarah Risser, the treasurer and board member of the Portland chapter of the national nonprofit Families for Safe Streets. In 2019, while Risser was driving with her 18 year-old son in Wisconsin, a motorist crashed into the vehicle, killing her son and leaving her injured. Last year, Risser placed a sign honoring victims at every fatal crash site in Portland, and she has also created  bike memorials at the request of families of cyclists killed on Portland roads.

Emily welcomes a familiar voice back to the podcast, Libby Pritchard, who is now the Senior Director of Sales and Business Development with Specialty Granules. Libby, formerly in a safety and health role with NSSGA, discusses her transition into a sales and business development position and how her perspective on being a safety leader has evolved. She shares powerful insights on how every employee, regardless of their title, can and should be a safety champion. Libby shares her initial feeling of leaving a piece of herself behind when "safety" was no longer in her job title. However, a pivotal conversation with her company's head of safety revealed a new perspective: a "non-safety person" advocating for safety has a unique and powerful influence. This episode explores how to embody safety in any role, the importance of personal stories, and practical strategies for building a robust safety culture where everyone is an active participant. Libby provides tangible examples, from making safety a part of performance goals to the impact of a sales team member actively engaging in refresher training, proving you don't need to be the conductor to lead the orchestra in safety. Main Themes: The transition from a formal safety role to a non-safety position. Embracing the principle that “everyone is a safety person.” How professionals in non-safety roles can powerfully influence an organization's safety culture. The power of personal stories and safety shares in making safety relatable and memorable. Practical strategies for integrating safety leadership into any job function. Building a culture where everyone feels empowered to contribute to safety. The concept of leading safety "from any seat in the orchestra." Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions: In this episode, Libby talks about her transition from a safety role to a sales and business development role. She was reassured that her new perspective carried weight, and she could still make a difference in the organization's safety culture. Why do you think it's important to include everyone's perspectives when it comes to safety?  Libby shares about the way that industry professionals who aren't in traditional safety roles can engage with safety on a daily basis. Which of the examples that she shared was your favorite and why?  Does anyone have a story they would like to share about how a “non-safety person's” perspective made them think differently about safety? Key Takeaways: "Everyone has a safety story. It's about learning and growing from experiences."   "Safety is everyone's job. We can all make an impact, regardless of our role."   "Being a 'non-safety' person gives you a unique influence on safety culture."   "Safety stories teach better than regulations. Share real-life examples."   "Challenge your team to have a safety goal. It builds a strong safety culture."   "Talk about safety with customers. You never know where a great idea will come from."   "Engaging in training as a non-safety person shows commitment and brings fresh energy."   "You don't need to be a safety pro to lead in safety. Lead from any seat in the orchestra."   "Safety can be part of any job. We can all make an impact, regardless of our job title."

Emily welcomes NSSGA's Senior Manager of Communications, Madalynn Habron to the podcast today for a discussion regarding critical water safety. Madalynn, a former lifeguard and swim instructor, shares insights on drowning prevention, the importance of swim lessons, recognizing distress signs, and how safety training principles extend from recreational activities to the aggregate industry workplace. Madalynn shares a personal near-drowning story, underscoring the need for constant vigilance around water. The discussion includes CDC child drowning statistics, the often quiet nature of drowning, and risks in shallow water. Listeners will gain practical advice on fencing, supervision, using PFDs, and adhering to safety protocols at aggregate facilities. A central theme is how robust safety training cultivates a lasting safety-conscious mindset, benefiting individuals and their families both at home and on the job. Main Themes: Maintaining active supervision around water. Drowning can happen quickly and silently. Swim lessons are vital for children and adults. Madalynn's story regarding the role of quick action and alertness in saving a toddler  Using barriers and approved PFDs for added safety. Specific water safety protocols protect workers at aggregate sites. Consistent safety training builds instinctual, life-saving responses. Safety skills learned at work also protect loved ones at home. Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions: Madalynn talks about her experience as a lifeguard and how water safety has always been a part of her life.

PART FOUR: EXPOSURE AND CONSEQUENCES At some point, reality catches up with delusion. For Chad and Lori, that moment came when their doomsday prophecy failed, the bodies were found, and the world demanded answers. This episode follows the unraveling of their belief system, from the moment their July 2020 doomsday prediction never came true to the mounting pressure from law enforcement and national media. Lori's chilling lack of emotion after her children disappeared and her refusal to cooperate with investigators only fueled the fire. Chad, once seen as a spiritual leader, suddenly found himself a fugitive, his so-called prophetic status crumbling under legal scrutiny. Through court testimonies, expert breakdowns, and official LDS responses, we explore how justice was finally served. Chad and Lori's religious justifications were torn apart in court, and their former followers turned against them. The trial exposed the full extent of their manipulation, their self-serving doctrine, and the horrifying reality of what they had done in the name of their so-called divine mission. This wasn't just a story about a crime—it was a case study in radicalization, cult psychology, and the dangers of unchecked belief.    Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
