What happens when two fire chiefs—one from the Midwest and one a lifelong Californian—cross paths and form a powerful partnership? In this episode of The Chief Exchange, we sit down with Fire Chief Gerard Washington (Vista Fire Department, CA; formerly Milwaukee, WI) and Fire Chief Robert Logan (San Diego Fire-Rescue, CA). Together, they share how their journeys in the fire service intersected, the challenges of leadership and budgeting in large departments, their efforts to recruit and mentor the next generation, and why authenticity, education, and transparency are the cornerstones of effective leadership. This conversation is equal parts inspiring and practical—a must-listen for anyone leading under pressure.

Five bodies. Three generations. One room. Zero answers. In 2008, a luxury home in California’s Orange County became the site of an unimaginable discovery. Inside were the decomposed bodies of five family members, spanning three generations. But there was no note, no clear motive, and no sign of struggle. Outwardly, the family seemed perfectly normal. In this episode of Crime Insiders Forensics, crime scene investigator Kimberlee Guluzian takes host Liz Porter inside the house where silence still echoes, and reveals what she saw, examined, and felt as she searched for answers in one of Orange County’s most haunting mysteries. This episode contains descriptions of suicide and violent crime. If you or anyone you know needs assistance, contact Lifeline on 13 11 14. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From injury prevention and cardiovascular risks to sleep education and nutrition, Alex highlights strategies to improve firefighter wellness and extend career longevity.Key TakeawaysStrength & conditioning is essential to prepare firefighters for high-stress demands.Firefighters face elevated risks of cardiovascular disease and obesity.Education on sleep and nutrition is critical for long-term health.Wellness programs can help firefighters prioritize themselves in a culture that often demands self-sacrifice.A supportive environment drives successful lifestyle changes.The ultimate goal is to help firefighters retire strong and healthy.Quote “But then, so outside of the musculoskeletal side of things, we have cardiovascular events. So the acute impact of firefighting… your blood gets thicker, which turns harder to pump around the body. So any underlying or pre-existing heart issues that you may have are exacerbated or brought to the front during those events.” – Alex Redshaw

Fire Chief Jeremy Bass of Abbeville County Fire Rescue (SC) brings over 30 years of fire service experience—spanning Charleston, Louisville, and rural South Carolina—into a conversation packed with lessons on leadership, resilience, and relationships. In this episode, Chief Bass shares why recruiting and retaining volunteers is less about numbers and more about building meaningful relationships, why fear is a liar and belief always comes before ability, and how losing six friends in the tragic Charleston Sofa Super Store fire forever changed his approach to training and mentorship. From coaching football to founding the Kentucky Brotherhood Ride, Chief Bass proves that leadership is about investing in people, honoring the past, and inspiring the future.

Grabs 161 Orem Fire Department, UT, (7/19/2025)Name and Rank: Austin McBride Firefighter Critical Care Paramedic Department Name: City of Orem Fire Department Date of Grab: 7/19/2025Type of building: 2 story residential with add-on/DIY construction. Ill add a picture so you can reference it. Approx time from arrival to removal: 7 minutesWeight of the victim (approximately): 140Method of removal: VES, removed out of second story window via ladders. 3-4 takeaways for show notes: 1) Due to communication lapses, I ended up performing the search alone, so I had to modify our standard search tactics: 2 people,1 isolates, one searches. Due to no visibility and quick location of the victim right by the window, isolating the door was delayed to effect the rescue. We can talk about the fire conditions and why I made that decision. 2) The window we brought the victim out of had a car parked right in front of it, so ladders were augmented to the side of the car, making the rescue more difficult (for those who encounter this in the future, stick that ladder right through the windshield) 3) Instead of bending the victim's legs at the window and hoisting the victim out the window, I found clean air right at the window and sat him up just below the window while I waited for ladders to be thrown and help to arrive to me. 4) I was engineer (driver) that day, so I was in a pumping mindset. Once an audible was called and our assignment was changed to rescue mode, I found myself lacking some critical equipment once performing the rescue: Radio, tool and water can. Take away: Always prepare for a potential rescue or for an audible to be called, even if you are a driver (Engineer), or even a fourth due arrival you never know.

===== MDJ Script/ Top Stories for August 8th Publish Date:  August 8th    Commercial: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Friday, August 8th and Happy Birthday to Roger Federer I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Charges dropped against man accused in Cobb Walmart kidnapping case Cobb hosts annual night of unity between residents and public safety officials Traffic stop in Austell leads to meth trafficking charges Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on peaches All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: Ingles Markets 10 STORY 1: Charges dropped against man accused in Cobb Walmart kidnapping case After months of stress, accusations, and uncertainty, Mahendra Patel is finally free. On Wednesday, prosecutors dropped all charges against the Cobb County man, who had been accused of attempting to kidnap a toddler at a north Cobb Walmart back in March. Patel, who spent 45 days in jail and lost 17 pounds surviving on bread and peanut butter, called the ordeal “a punishment in itself.” His mugshot? Still everywhere. His reputation? Shattered. But now, at least, he can breathe. Surveillance footage, which Patel’s attorney Ashleigh Merchant said was key to clearing his name, showed Patel briefly interacting with the child’s mother, Caroline Miller, while searching for Tylenol. What prosecutors initially called an attempted kidnapping was, in Patel’s words, “a misunderstanding blown out of proportion.” A Change.org petition supporting Patel gathered over 92,000 signatures, and even inmates who once threatened him apologized after reading about his case. STORY 2: Cobb hosts annual night of unity between residents and public safety officials Badges, block parties, and a whole lot of community spirit filled Jim Miller Park for Cobb County’s National Night Out. Since 1984, this nationwide event has been all about building bridges between public safety officers and the people they serve. And on Tuesday night? It was all smiles, dunk tanks, and even axe throwing. Families wandered through booths from the Cobb Sheriff’s Office, Fire Department, 911 dispatchers, and more. Kids laughed, parents asked questions, and stuffed K-9 toys were sold to support the real-life furry officers. For Zanetia Henry, the night was personal. After losing her son Dre to gun violence in 2019, she’s dedicated herself to uniting communities through her nonprofit, Operation Recovery. “Unity takes everyone,” she said, presenting awards to officers who’ve gone above and beyond. Cobb Police Capt. Jason Best, reflecting on his 28 years of service, said it best: “We usually see people at their worst. Tonight, we get to just talk—no tickets, no arrests. Just people connecting.” STORY 3: Traffic stop in Austell leads to meth trafficking charges  Jack Randall Roberts, 68, and Justin Daniell Roberts, 30, both from Gay, Georgia, were arrested on July 31 after police allegedly found them with about a kilogram of methamphetamine. It all went down around 4 p.m. at the intersection of Garrett Road and C.H. James Parkway in Austell. Jack, driving a 2008 Ford Focus, reportedly stopped too far past the stop line—an innocent enough mistake, right? Except during the traffic stop, officers discovered the drugs, according to the warrant. Both men were booked into the Cobb County jail that evening. No bond. No release. Just a whole lot of trouble. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: COBB INT. FESITVAL STORY 4: Expect lane closures as Atlanta Gas Light begins major pipeline work Atlanta Gas Light is gearing up to kick off the Wade Green Road Phase II Pressure Improvement Project this month—a big deal for Cobb and Cherokee counties. The plan? Lay down 5.5 miles of new natural gas pipeline. Construction crews will be working near Moon Station Road, Baker Road, Woodstock Road, and Highway 92, Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Heads up: expect lane closures and some traffic headaches through late 2025, with cleanup stretching into spring 2026. The city says the project will boost system reliability during high demand and create jobs. Got questions? Check out atlantagaslight.com or email wadegreen@southernco.com. STORY 5: Community Colleges of Appalachia sign transfer agreement with WGU Leaders from Community Colleges of Appalachia (CCA) and Western Governors University (WGU) just inked a deal that could be a game-changer for Appalachian students. The agreement lets residents earn WGU’s accredited online degrees and certificates without leaving their hometowns—no uprooting, no long commutes. CCA, with 85 member colleges from Mississippi to New York (including five in Georgia), is all about serving local communities. This partnership? It’s about making higher education more accessible. Graduates and employees of CCA schools can transfer credits to WGU, skip redundant coursework, and even apply for $3,000 Learn Where You Live Scholarships. WGU’s flexible, competency-based programs—spanning business, tech, healthcare, and education—are designed for busy lives. Tuition? About $4,000 per six-month term, and students can tackle as many courses as they’re ready for. For details, check out ccofapp.org or wgu.edu.

His fitness company now employs 25 full-time coaches (including actual doctors) and helps clients like Eric, who at 800 pounds is working toward standing up for the first time in four years.The conversation takes us through Scotty's adventures across America, from being recognized everywhere he goes to jumping out of planes with Army paratroopers. We get the inside scoop on his upcoming apparel brand, Fault Line Apparel, designed to combat toxic masculinity with a "brutalist survivalist" aesthetic. There's also his unexpected partnership with Bethesda, where he'll be cosplaying as an NCR Ranger from Fallout at gaming conventions.What makes this episode special is the genuine reflection on what it means to suddenly have influence. As Scotty puts it, "I didn't anticipate the impact some of my videos would have on people." Whether he's making viewers laugh with outlandish food reviews or moving them to tears with vulnerable moments, his authenticity shines through. Because as he learned in therapy: "I don't deserve it, but I belong here."Ready to laugh, be inspired, and maybe shed a tear? Press play and discover what happens when a mustached fitness guy decides to weaponize his audience—not for personal gain, but for making the world better, one video at a time.
