"It's a great platform for me in my life," says retired Lieutenant Luis Torres. The Historian of the FDNY Hispanic Society LT Torres reflects on a nearly 3-decade career with the FDNY, and how working in the same community he calls home was always a way for him to give back. ICYMI: On last month's special on-location episode of the JoinFDNY Podcast, Chief of Training Michael Meyers sat down with host Captain Andrew Brown to highlight the importance of training—not only during your time at the Academy, but throughout your entire career. Chief Meyers stressed that continuous learning and preparation are the keys to success in the field and beyond.
One state is lovin' fast food more than the others. New data from QR Code Generator has revealed which states are considered the fast food capitals of America — and which chains are the most popular in each.In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Wednesday, a couple in their 70s was killed Monday in what the police commissioner said was a “horrific double homicide, robbery and arson” — the man tied to a pole and stabbed, the woman's body severely burned as their home went up in flames.The names of nearly 40 more heroic New York City firefighters who died from 9/11-caused illnesses were added to the FDNY's emotional World Trade Center memorial at the department's Brooklyn headquarters.And in Washington, Chief Justice John Roberts temporarily kept in place the Trump administration's decision to freeze nearly $5 billion in foreign aid.
Be sure and join us on our Youtube Channel with our special guest, former Fire Patrolman Arnold Roma, father of Patrolman Keith Roma. Tune in as we honor and pay tribute to the ONLY patrolman that perished on 911. Keith was with Fire Patrol 2 in Greenwich Village and responded to the trade center on that horrific day. Keith performed some great heroic acts on 911 including several trips into the North Tower where he saved an estimated 200 civilians. Sadly, as he was rescuing 9 civilians, the second tower collapsed, killing Keith and the 9 civilians he was rescuing. This is going to be another great tribute show as we discuss Keith's career and the controversy surrounding his death. We will also get to discuss Arnolds time in the Fire Patrol. We will get the whole skinny. You don't want to miss this one. Join us at the kitchen table on the BEST FIREFIGHTER PODCAST ON THE INTERNET!

We started the hour with the Mets situation and lots of callers seem to be angry at Steve Cohen, with one caller wanting the Wilpons back. A caller wondered if Gio was still thinking the Lions were going to have a bad season. Jerry returns for an update and starts with a Derrick Henry fumble as the Lions beat the Ravens. Aaron Glenn talked about the Jets defense having to get better. Boomer said Jets fans are mad Glenn is showing emotion and also mad when Rob Saleh didn't. Peta is upset with Tom Brady for saying ‘kick the dog' during the broadcast. Pete Alonso talked about going into the final 6 games of the season. In the final segment of the hour, we heard a speech from an FDNY firefighter to the Ryder Cup team pumping them up. He went full America on them.
Hour 1 We started with the Giants quarterback situation and Boomer thinks they are going to announce Jaxson Dart will start this week against the Chargers. Boomer said it seems that Dart has a little ‘red ass in him'. I am going to google that to see what that means. The only way things get worse for the Giants is if they play Dart and he stinks. The Mets have their final 6 games of the season that will determine if they get into the playoffs. They have been horrible over August and September. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with the sounds of the Lions beating the Ravens. Brian Daboll was asked if Russell Wilson would be the starter and he said they will do what they always do which is evaluate everything. Mike Francesa called the Jets ‘losers'. In the final segment of the hour, a caller is angry at Mets fans for expecting even more from Juan Soto and Pete Alonso. He also yelled that most of the team is minor leaguers. Hour 2 We started the hour with the Mets situation and lots of callers seem to be angry at Steve Cohen, with one caller wanting the Wilpons back. A caller wondered if Gio was still thinking the Lions were going to have a bad season. Jerry returns for an update and starts with a Derrick Henry fumble as the Lions beat the Ravens. Aaron Glenn talked about the Jets defense having to get better. Boomer said Jets fans are mad Glenn is showing emotion and also mad when Rob Saleh didn't. Peta is upset with Tom Brady for saying ‘kick the dog' during the broadcast. Pete Alonso talked about going into the final 6 games of the season. In the final segment of the hour, we heard a speech from an FDNY firefighter to the Ryder Cup team pumping them up. He went full America on them. Hour 3 Today may be the day the Giants make the announcement that Jaxson Dart is starting Sunday against the Chargers. We talked about quarterbacks that were really good as rookies, like CJ Stroud, and then things may not be the same the next season. Jayden Daniels already missed a start with an injury last week. Boomer talked about the importance of where players go. Tampa seems to be the perfect place for Baker Mayfield. Indianapolis seems to be the perfect place for Daniel Jones. A caller wonders why we think it will be better with Jaxson Dart. There's only one way to turn a dead team into one that's alive and that's a young quarterback. Gio wants to go to the Ryder Cup, but he said it seems like an absolute disaster to get in and out of there. A caller debates Gio on whether Juan Soto is a real ‘needle mover'. Jerry returns for an update, but first we talked about some teams being desperate for a QB, and maybe Russell Wilson or Jameis Winston could go to the Bengals if the Giants go to Jaxson Dart. Jerry starts with the Lions beating the Ravens and we heard from Dan Campbell after the game. The Lions sacked Lamar Jackson seven times. Brian Daboll was asked why the passing game was so terrible. Adam Schein talked about Jordan Love's highs and lows. Deion Sanders was on the New Heights podcast and asked about the spelling of his name. He got it from ‘Old MacDonald'. In the final segment of the hour, Bob Papa doesn't like Giants fan and ‘content creator' Bobby Skinner having an opinion since he doesn't go in the locker room or attend press conferences. Hour 4 The Lions beat the Ravens last night and some people had the Lions in trouble this year because they lost their offensive and defensive coordinators. But Dan Campbell kept saying it was about the players and he's looking right. Boomer said having Jared Goff at QB is a huge difference. The first few weeks have had better play this year than in previous years and Boomer said it's because guys played in the pre-season. The Vikings and Steelers are playing in Ireland this Sunday. Jerry returns for his final update of the day and starts with the sounds of the Lions beating the Ravens. We also heard from Dan Campbell after the game. Phil Simms was on with Kay Adams a ...

I had the pleasure of sitting down with my friend Scotty Hewson to talk about his remarkable journey through aviation, firefighting, and service. Scotty shared how his love for helicopters started as a child at an air show with his grandfather, a passion that carried him into the Army Air Corps where he served as a Lynx crewman and door gunner. His story is one of resilience, setbacks, and determination, and it gave us a chance to reflect on how the skills and lessons of military life cross over into the fire service.Our conversation then turned to something deeply close to both our hearts: the Terry Farrell Memorial Stair Climb. Scotty spoke about his first climb in 2016 and how it sparked a mission that's grown into one of the biggest firefighter efforts ever undertaken in the UK. Together we explored the plans for September 2026, when 343 UK firefighters will travel to Atlanta to climb in honour of the 343 FDNY firefighters lost on 9/11. This episode is more than a conversation — it's a call to unity, remembrance, and service, and I'm proud to share it.JOIN US BY REGISTERING HEREAccess all episodes, documents, GIVEAWAYS & debriefs HEREJoin me on the United for 9/11: Memorial Stair Climb – Atlanta 2026 HEREPodcast Apparel, Hoodies, Flags, Mugs HEREPODCAST GIFT - FREE subscription to essential Firefighting publications HERE A big thanks to our partners for supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingMSA The Safety CompanyIDEXFIRE & EVACUATION SERVICE LTD HAIX Footwear - Get offical podcast discount on HAIX HEREXendurance - to hunt performance & endurance 20% off HERE with code ffp20Lyfe Linez - Get Functional Hydration FUEL for FIREFIGHTERS, Clean no sugar for daily hydration. 80% of people live dehydratedSend us a textSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.

In the aftermath of September 11, 2001, when 343 members made the Supreme Sacrifice, the FDNY grappled with the unimaginable loss of life while at the same time rebuilding its decimated Department. Processes were in place to handle line of duty deaths, but not for this unthinkable number of members. In the days, months and even years that followed, the FDNY faced the enormous challenge of grieving, honoring their fallen and their families, and beginning the long path to recovery. During this time, the Department's Ceremonial Unit took on a critical role—not only helping to manage hundreds of funerals and memorials, but donation ceremonies and tributes were a constant for many years. As a department, the FDNY always honors and remembers their fallen heroes. Post-9/11, the Ceremonial Unit rose to this challenging occasion, which is unmatched in the history of the fire service. The intention being—to honor our fallen, support their families on their darkest day in a dignified, fitting tradition. Host Elizabeth Cascio sits down with two key players from those early days—First Deputy Commissioner Mark Guerra and Lieutenant Joe LaPointe—to hear how they responded on September 11th and how, while the Department was healing and rebuilding, the Ceremonial Unit attended multiple funerals and memorials daily—the most being 25 in one day.
This is the All Local morning update for September 12, 2025.
If you've listened to this show over the years, chances are that you've heard our guest. If you haven't, get ready for a solid dose of the straight up good stuff. Rob Serra (@SerraRob) is back for the annual 9/11 episode and this one hits hard. Host and founder Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) was there at Ground Zero on 9/11. So was Rob. It was famously his first day on the job. Yes, you read that right, his first day as a New York City firefighter was Tuesday, September 11th, 2001. They didn't meet then, but they were both there and it's played a massive role in their lives and indeed in the lives of every American. If you weren't alive then, it's hard to explain how much the world has changed as a result (more on that in the podcast). But they were there. In the middle of all of the destruction. And listening to them discuss what happened then and what has happened since can teach us all about what it means to be an American— the good and the bad. And as the country experiences the staggering effects of more political violence, and seems more divided than ever, this is a conversation everyone needs to listen to and absorb. It's a gut-check on a nation grappling with its past and its future. It's a raw, authentic conversation about service, sacrifice, and the enduring fight for those who ran toward the fire and the driving call behind why we must always stay vigilant. Every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) breaks down the most important news stories–and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It's independent content for independent Americans. In these trying times especially, Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope.

Turning Point USA Founder Charlie Kirk was shot and killed on Wednesday at a conservative activism event held at Utah Valley University. President Trump called this political assassination “a tragedy,” while speaking with FOX's Bret Baier, the President praised Kirk as “an unbelievable patriot” who captured the adoration of America's conservative youth. FBI Director Kash Patel told reporters Wednesday night that the perpetrator of this fatal shooting is in custody. Executive editor & anchor of The Story With Martha MacCallum, Martha MacCallum joins the Rundown to react to shockwaves this assassination is sending through the political world and how this recurring pattern of political violence points to a nation on the brink of crisis. The September 11th terror attacks remain one of the nation's most defining and devastating moments, claiming thousands of lives and causing immense damage to one of America's most populous cities. Frank Siller, Tunnel to Towers Chairman & CEO, joins the Rundown to discuss how he created the Tunnel to Towers Foundation in honor of his younger brother, FDNY firefighter Stephen Siller, and why he remains dedicated to supporting the families of fallen first responders and military service members.

Today we have the great honor of welcoming Deputy Chief Jay Jonas. He was appointed to the New York City Fire Department on November 24, 1979. After graduating from probie school, he was first assigned to Engine Company 46 in the Bronx. He then crossed the floor to Ladder 27, where he honed his craft at the “Cross Bronx Express.” Seeking broader knowledge and experience, he transferred to Rescue Company 3, responding to some of the Bronx's most challenging fires and emergencies. Deputy Chief Jonas was later promoted to Lieutenant, serving with Ladder 11 on the Lower East Side. He then rose to the rank of Captain and was assigned to Ladder 6, where he served as company commander on September 11, 2001. Just one week after 9/11, he was promoted to Battalion Chief and assigned to the 2nd Battalion. In 2007, he achieved the rank of Deputy Chief in the 7th Division, where he continued his distinguished service until his retirement on July 9, 2022, marking the close of a remarkable 42-year career with the FDNY.
On this 9/11 anniversary episode of The Resilient Life, host Ryan Manion sits down with former FDNY firefighter Tim Sullivan, who served on the frontlines during the September 11th attacks. Tim recounts the harrowing realities of that day, the resilience required in the months and years that followed, and the challenges of healing while carrying the weight of loss.In 2006, Tim had the opportunity to meet Ryan's brother, 1stLt Travis Manion, USMC, when Travis visited Sullivan's firehouse in New York City. Just one year later, Travis was killed in Iraq while protecting his fellow Marines. Tim reflects on that connection and how the legacies of Travis and the many heroes of 9/11 continue to inspire him today.This conversation is a moving reminder of the sacrifices made on 9/11 and the enduring strength of our first responders and veterans.CONNECT with The Resilient Life Podcast:Instagram SUBSCRIBE Get the latest video podcast on YouTubeGet the latest audio podcastCONNECT Ryan Manion on Social Media:Facebook - Twitter - Instagram - LinkedIn LEARN about Travis Manion Foundation

Today on the 24th Anniversary of that fateful day, we are releasing a very special episode in honor of our guest, Retired FDNY Fire Fighter John Larocchia and his 19 fallen colleagues from firehouse Maspeth Queens Haz-Mat Company 1, along with Squad 288!

Retired Firefighter Danny Manning told Oliver about a memorial ceremony at the FDNY 9/11 Garden of Remembrance in Kinsale
September 11, 2025 ~ Rerun: Kevin is joined by Joseph Pfeifer, Retired FDNY Battalion Chief and Author of "Ordinary Heros: A Memoir of 9/11.'

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITViolence seems to be everywhere these days - even in the most unexpected places. Today we dive into a truly bizarre case where a decomposed, dismembered body was discovered in a Tesla registered to popular singer D4VD (pronounced "David") after the vehicle had been abandoned and towed to a Los Angeles impound lot. The grisly discovery came days after the car was sitting in the summer heat, leading to a foul odor that finally prompted investigation.But that's just the beginning of our disturbing crime roundup. We're tracking the massive manhunt for Jamal McGriff, a 42-year-old career criminal with a horrifying 30-year record who brutally murdered an elderly couple in Queens. The victims - parents of an FDNY paramedic - were found bound, stabbed multiple times, and set on fire in their own home after being terrorized for nearly five hours. The most infuriating part? This dangerous offender was walking free despite decades of violent behavior, raising serious questions about our criminal justice system's priorities.We also examine President Trump's recent dinner outing in Washington DC, where he attempted to demonstrate improved safety in the capital following his administration's crime crackdown. But does a presidential dinner with Secret Service protection really prove anything about everyday citizens' safety? I don't think so. The reality is that many of us have dramatically changed our behavior - I don't even answer my door anymore - because we can't rely on the system to keep dangerous people off our streets. So what's really behind this crime wave? Is it failed "reimagined" justice policies that prioritize keeping offenders out of prison? Mental health system failures? Or something more sinister?

Brad Zerbo hosts a powerful and emotional conversation with FDNY Captain Mike, who shares his firsthand experience of 9/11. From losing his cousin, Chief Charlie Casper, to the haunting aftermath of the towers' collapse, Mike recounts the chaos, bravery, and devastation that shaped that day and its long shadow. He explains how FDNY protocols never prepared firefighters for a full structural collapse, reflects on survivor's guilt, and recalls the patriotism that was weaponized in the months after. The two also discuss Brad's documentary Codex 9/11, how it reshaped Mike's understanding of what really happened, and why controlled narratives kept so many in the dark. With raw honesty, Mike connects the manipulation of 9/11 to later crises like COVID, drawing parallels in fear, propaganda, and public compliance. This moving testimony blends personal loss, professional insight, and hard truths, offering listeners both closure and a call to keep questioning.

From New York steakhouse soirées to Coachella Valley showstoppers, event planner Lola Kent brings a decade-plus of creative fire to the corner booth on this week's episode of Big Conversations, Little Bar with Patrick Evans and Randy Florence. She shares how a chance ceremony paired her with officiant Randy, sparking 60+ weddings built on listening, storytelling, and short-but-soulful vows. Lola recalls transforming airplane hangars at the Palm Springs Air Museum into “Norm's Beach,” complete with surprise aircraft arrivals and star musicians, and a tear-jerking Bighorn ceremony where love triumphed over stage-four cancer. We get real about budgets vs. vision, indoor-outdoor contingency planning, micro-weddings born from the pandemic, and why great planners protect couples from venue rules, vendor chaos, and desert winds. Plus: the NYPD vs. FDNY cookoff, a Wicked-themed pop-up speakeasy, and the secret to guest-first hospitality (sometimes it's Gentleman Jack). If you love weddings, parties, or just world-class logistics that feel like magic, this podcast is your blueprint.We regret that due to technical issues in the recording of this episode that there is not a video podcast available.Takeaways:The best ceremonies start with deep listening and private interviews.Short, meaningful vows keep guests engaged and couples centered.Great planners match clients to venues that fit rules and vibe.Always build indoor-outdoor weather backups in the desert.Clear vendor coordination is mission-critical to event flow.Budgets must guide creative choices—vision scales with resources.Micro-weddings proved intimacy can be as powerful as spectacle.Story-driven details turn spaces (even hangars) into immersive worlds.#BigConversationsLittleBarPodcast #PatrickEvans #RandyFlorence #SkipsLittleBar #MutualBroadcastingSystem #CoachellaValleyResidents #SkipPaige #LolaKent #EventPlanning #WeddingPlanner #DesertWeddings #PalmSprings #CoachellaValley #AirMuseum #VowRenewal #MicroWeddings #LuxuryEvents #WeddingOfficiant #Bighorn #PopUpSpeakeasy

In the early hours of August 10, 2019, an anonymous user on the 4chan message board (specifically the /pol/ board) posted that Epstein had died by hanging and cardiac arrest—writing, “Don't ask me how I know, but Epstein died an hour ago…” The post appeared at 8:16 a.m. ET, approximately 38–40 minutes before ABC News correspondent Aaron Katersky tweeted the news at around 8:54 a.m. ET, followed by an ABC story at about 9:00 a.m. This unusual timing sparked intrigue, as it suggested someone may have had unusually early—or insider—knowledge of the event.Despite speculation, the New York Fire Department confirmed that the information did not come from any FDNY personnel or official source. No verification of the poster's identity surfaced, and the claim remains unsubstantiated—with media and investigators treating it as an unverified tip rather than a credible leak. The episode nonetheless highlighted the rapid power of anonymous online platforms to circulate high-profile news before traditional media catches up, fuelling conspiracy theories and public unease.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/janelytvynenko/fdny-review-jeffrey-epstein-4chan-postBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
Timothy Brown was serving as supervisor of field operations in New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani's office of emergency management on September 11, 2001. He was already at work near the World Trade Center when terrorists flew the first plane into the North Tower. He was in the lobby of that building when he got word that a second plane controlled by terrorists struck the South Tower. He immediately rushed over there. Less than an hour later, the South Tower collapsed while Timothy Brown was still inside.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Brown walks us from when he heard of the first attack through the horror of the South Tower coming down all around him. He explains what it felt like and sounded like as 110 stories crashed down around him. He also describes emerging from the rubble and getting out of the area just as the North Tower came down.Brown believes his life was spared in order to share the heroic actions of firefighters and other first responders on 9/11. And he tells multiple stories of those heroes, many of whom were friends he lost that day. Finally, Brown offers his thanks to the veterans who took the fight to the terrorists in the wars following 9/11.

FDNY members operated at a two-alarm fire in a six story, non-fireproof apartment building in Harlem on February 23, 2024. The lithium-ion battery fire originated in an apartment on the third floor and quickly spread into the public hallway, sending thick, black smoke throughout the upper floors of the building. Dozens of panicked residents attempted to escape. Many became trapped on the floors above the fire. Others were forced to the top floor windows, gasping for air.In this episode, Battalion Chief Jason Cascone speaks to Battalion Chief Ryan Brito—who was serving as Captain of Ladder 34 at the time—and Firefighter Michael Kotzo of Ladder 28. Together, they recount this challenging, intense operation, which involved multiple interior rescues and three dramatic roof rope rescues. Six medals were awarded at this year's Medal Day in recognition of the extraordinary bravery displayed at this fire. Among them, Chief Brito received the Henry D. Brookman Medal and Firefighter Kotzo was awarded the Chief of Department Peter J. Ganci Medal—the Department's highest honor for fire operations.

Inside the mind of a firefighter-turned-author who survived 9/11 and now writes to heal, remember, and educate. We're honored to welcome Andrew Serra, retired FDNY captain and the powerful voice behind Hell's Hundred Acres and Finding John, to the Tactical Living Podcast.

Originally from Seattle, Gracelyn Woods grew up housing insecure, food insecure and raised by a single mom. From these tough beginnings, she cultivated a fierce attitude of hard work and self-determination that resulted in a successful career in TV and event production in New York City. But after 20 years of this work, culminating in a big job with the landmark Apollo Theater, Gracelyn found herself mired in unhappiness. “The lifestyle of TV and event production had taken its toll. It had shown up in vices, it had showed up in drinking, it had showed up in overspending,” she says in our interview. “My first step was to get the physical space I needed to have a moment to think about it.” So in 2018, she moved to Beacon – alone – and started a new life. She met her partner - an FDNY firefighter - and they had a child. Meanwhile, she took on a big new job as COO and co-owner of The Bellweather Agency. Through all this, Gracelyn directed her energies to her newfound community, finding support and friendship among other parents and the wider community.
