Fire Chief Dave Robertson returns to The Chief Exchange to share the 10 leadership lessons he published in Fire Fighting in Canada. From knowing when to be quiet and listen, to having the courage to be bold and make tough calls, Chief Robertson reflects on the balance every leader must strike. He explains why detachment is one of his most valuable tools, how engagement on the front lines builds credibility, and why leadership—whether in a firehouse, a business, or even your own household—is ultimately about people, decisions, and accountability.

11 years of combination experience. Fire chief for Bonduwel Area Fire Department in Wisconsin. Kevin got his foot into the fire service via the EMS Side where he started out as medic with Ski patrol. From there a position came open on the fire department Kevin applied and got his start. Although becoming Fire Chief wasn't on his radar since being appointed Kevin made sure he took full of advantage of resources around him by attending various leadership courses available and many outside training events. What stood out to me about Kevin is the fact that just because he's a Fire Chief that doesn't mean he's above the people within his department. If he's instructing a class that requires the students to be in gear Kevin is also in gear. He is whole heartedly trying to better the organization and those he can impact within the fire service. Don't take my word for it, just have a listen. IG: 601_k_lynch

In this episode of The Chief Exchange, Chief Paul Henley of Flower Mound Fire Department, TX, shares his incredible journey from losing his job with only $700 to his name and a pregnant wife at home, to leading two fire departments and serving as past president of the Texas Fire Chiefs Association. Henley reflects on lessons learned in resource-strapped Corsicana, the importance of community partnerships, and his drive to continuously raise the bar for leadership and training in the fire service. With a mix of humility, humor, and hard-won wisdom, he offers a candid look at leadership, resilience, and service above self.

Today's episode of Joe Untamed is not for the complacent—it's for those who believe in truth, accountability, and the courage to stand firm when the world pushes back. We're bringing you two powerhouse voices who aren't just talking about change—they've risked everything to make it happen. First up, LTC (Ret.) Dr. Pete Chambers, a decorated Green Beret, physician, and whistleblower who's now running for Governor of Texas. From the battlefields overseas to the front lines of border security and medical freedom, Doc Pete has fought for liberty at every turn—and now, he's taking that fight to Austin. Then, you'll hear from Erik Holt, a former Fire Chief whose stand for election integrity cost him his job, his savings, and nearly his livelihood. When faced with clear evidence of election misconduct, he refused to look the other way—even when corrupt officials demanded he destroy it. Fired, blacklisted, and forced into a costly legal battle, Erik's fight is about more than his own case—it's about whether public servants in America can speak truth without losing their rights. This isn't just another episode—it's a rallying cry. You'll hear stories of courage, sacrifice, and the high price of integrity in today's America. If you've ever wondered what it looks like to stand your ground when everything is on the line, you won't want to miss this one.

Lafayette Fire Chief Robert Benoit, a man who has devoted 46 years to protecting our community, recently announced his retirement. A Lafayette native, Chief Benoit joined the department in May 1979 and made history in August 1993 when he became the first Black fire chief in Lafayette's history. Under his leadership, the department expanded from seven to fourteen fire stations, modernized equipment and training, and earned improved fire ratings, saving money and lives. Chief Benoit has been inducted into the Louisiana Fire Chiefs Hall of Fame and served as President of the Southwestern Division of the International Association of Fire Chiefs. As he prepares to retire on August 15, 2025, Chief Benoit reflected on the calling he discovered as a child, the trials and triumphs of leading during economic downturns and political shifts, and the deeper sense of purpose that led him to seminary and prison ministry. “I think it was a gift that God placed in me, probably from birth… getting to how I got there was looking at a firefighter in a book at school at seven years old… and I said, ‘I want to be a firefighter.'” From Stockboy to Chief Chief Benoit's journey began with humble jobs—first at Lafayette Drug Company, then Martin Mills in St. Martinville—while waiting to meet the age requirement to become a firefighter. When the age was lowered to 18, he took the civil service exam, passed, and began training at the fire academy. His first assignment was the Central Fire Station, where he spent 99% of his career. "The first thing you get is an interview with the fire chief. The fire chief at that time was Wayne Prejean. He told me he was going to give me a shot. I remember walking out the fire station realizing that I was going to get a job. Even though I had to go through the physical process. And then from there, once I cleared the physical, I went to the academy which lasted three months. It was exciting. I did everything I needed to do." My first station was at Central Downtown, which is where I work today. At that time, we had a pumper truck and a ladder truck and a rescue truck in the station. That's where I started to learn the business of firefighting. Learning that business, reading on my own time, a lot of time in the fire station. We were very short on firefighters." “They called it ‘The Rock'... because everything comes through the Central Fire Station. That was administration, firefighters, and the communications center.” A Rapid Rise Through the Ranks Benoit was known for his drive and initiative. He became a truck driver within three years (something that on average takes about eight years), communications officer, arson investigator, and captain—a rank he reached in just six years. “I wanted to learn every section of the fire department... Didn't realize I was going to be chief. I just wanted to understand how this organization worked.” In the 1980, the local economy tanked. "I used to hear people make the comment. Last one out. Turn the lights out. They had a lot of vacant buildings and having a lot of fires that was arson.Kids were setting buildings on fire. And of course, unfortunately, some businesses were setting their businesses on fire. The fire chief at that time was Jack Massey who needed some help in the fire prevention bureau in the arson section. He asked me to go work in there just for a couple of months, just to help him out. I wound up going in there and found a home in fire prevention. So this is seven years later. I'm in fire prevention. I started learning the business of investigations. I started getting trained by ATF agents, FBI agents, insurance agents and going to school. That's where my educational level really skyrocketed. I started getting degrees and learning this business of investigating fires. The fire chief put me in charge of internal affairs for the fire department. So I pretty much did everything,

The show opens with great news about who it and who it not being hired in the United States since Donald Trump became president. I then spend more time wondering about possibilities with why there is “no” Epstein file. One of those reasons is to get the Left to talk about it, too. In the meantime, in terms of immediate importance, I would argue the FBI announcing 250 investigations tied to violent online network ‘764' that preys on teens, is much higher than the Epstein case. Dr. Kevin O'Connor just took the 5th, refusing to answer any questions about Joe Biden's medical and mental health. But, rather than punish him, I suggest they offer total immunity to get him to tell the truth. The CIA has made a criminal referral to the DOJ for John Brennan, James Comey and James Clapper for their role in the fake Russiagate story. Seems that is going to be a pretty big fish to fry. I then dive into the DEI hire for the Fire Chief in Austin, TX, leading to his decision to not send in an elite squad to aid in the flood rescues of Texans. Then we look a the DEI appointment of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the SCOTUS. More domestic arrests are being made of Leftists who believe they need to commit stronger acts of violence against ICE and law enforcement. At the same time, Mayor Karen Bass of LA thinks it's more important to file a lawsuit against Trump than to help people start to rebuild their homes from fires over 6 months ago. And, for what it's worth, CNN notes that every poll says the majority of Americans want “all” illegals deported. Finally, US Attorney Harmeet Dhillon is pushing to deny California all taxpayer money for education given they want to allow men to be in women's sports and spaces. And, it looks like Fed Chair Jerome Powell is handing in his resignation. Please take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

Today we sit with the 18th Fire Chief in the Dallas Fire Departments storied history. Chief Justin Ball immigrated to the United States from England more than thirty years ago, joining the fire department in 1997. Chief has a bachelor's degree in Fire Administration from Texas A&M and maintains certifications as a Master Firefighter, Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF), Fire Officer II, Fire Instructor II, Incident Commander, and Incident Safety Officer.  We are excited to have the opportunity to have the listener take a small peek into the unique path that Chief Ball took to command the sixth largest fire department in the United States.  Former broadcast journalist and current Dallas Fire and Rescue Director of Communications Susy Solis sits in to cohost this episode to bring the new Dallas Fire Chief to the listeners.  Notable Topics Discussed: 2 in/2 out procedure Medic One Program Quartermaster Program Expanding the wellness and peer support program

32 years of combination experience. 1st Firefighter in his family to go career. Retired from Fairfax Fire/Rescue with 20 years as a Firefighter from Bailey's Crossroads station 10. Firefighter, former Fire Chief and life member with Kentland Volunteer Fire Department, former Ops Chief with Clearwater Fire Department in Florida & currently Fire Apparatus Manager/ Assistant Chief with Prince George's County. Ricky gained a ton of experience while being a volunteer member in Prince George but it wasn't until a mentor in his life told him what good is all that experience and knowledge if your not willing to share it to others? After that discussion that's when things began to evolve for Ricky. Having valuable experience and knowledge is beneficial, but its true worth is realized when shared with others, fostering growth, innovation, and collective progress. Without sharing, knowledge can become stagnant, and opportunities for learning and improvement are missed. Sharing knowledge not only benefits others but also deepens the sharer's understanding and strengthens relationships. IG: rickyrileytt
