Remember that mustache guy who made you spit out your coffee laughing about beef jerky and HOA disputes? Scotty K returns to the podcast where it all began, bringing us along for the wild ride his life has become since our last conversation.From quitting his firefighter job to reaching nearly 4 million TikTok followers in just over a year, Scotty's transformation has been nothing short of extraordinary. But what stands out isn't the follower count—it's what he's done with it. Through marathon livestreams and ruck marches, he's raised over $143,000 for the American Heart Association. 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.

Brandon was attending college for an engineering degree when his living situation on campus wasn't desirable. He turned to the local county Fire Department live-in program which allowed him to attend classes but also ended up being the best decision he made for his career. It was nothing for him and other individuals to run over 2000 incidents a year which most certainly has its positives when it comes to gaining experience. Soon after Brandon knew he wanted to go career and got hired on Anne Arundel.

Send us a textIn this episode, Scott and Chasity reunite in-studio after several remote recordings to discuss their recent activities and introduce a special panel discussion about the Scientific Advisory Work Group (SAW). Scott shares his excitement about getting accepted into OSU for a master's program, while the hosts debate the value of continuing education in fire investigation. They emphasize the importance of bachelor's degrees for investigators before diving into the main interview segment.The featured interview, recorded in Michigan, includes guest co-host Lauren Guber (a California Deputy Attorney General) along with Dr. Elizabeth Buck and Brian Fine (retired from the Texas State Fire Marshal's Office). They discuss SAW, a program that originated in Texas to improve fire investigation through peer review. The panel explains how investigators present cases to a diverse group of experts who then evaluate whether the investigation meets scientific standards. This constructive criticism helps investigators strengthen their reports and testimony, ultimately leading to more credible courtroom presentations. Brian shares how investigators initially dreaded these reviews but eventually began voluntarily submitting cases to showcase their improved work.The group discusses the challenges fire investigators face in court, particularly in Daubert states where scientific testimony is more strictly evaluated. Lauren explains how prosecutors must prove both that fire investigation expertise is needed and that the specific investigator is qualified to provide it. The panel emphasizes that maintaining credibility is crucial, as a poor performance in one case can follow investigators throughout their careers.Dr. Buck discusses efforts to expand the SAW program beyond Texas, having recently introduced it to Michigan with hopes of bringing it to California next. The episode concludes with the "Can You Use It in a Sentence?" segment featuring "hot gas layer" as the next term in their educational series, following previous explanations of "plume" and "ceiling jet." Scott and Chasity also address fan mail, including a question about Scott's recent court case and feedback about standardizing fire damage classification terminology.Thank you for listening!

Are our communities really prepared for modern public safety threats? And what role do accreditation and credentialing play in building resilient fire departments?In this episode of Associations Thrive, host Joanna Pineda interviews Preet Bassi, CEO of the Center for Public Safety Excellence (CPSE). Preet discusses:The reasons fire departments pursue accreditation: to showcase excellence, correct operational failures, or continuously improve.Why CPSE's model works best for medium to large fire departments — big enough to implement a structured management model but small enough to pivot strategically.The challenges faced by rural volunteer fire departments, including lack of resources, equity of service, and training gaps amid increasing environmental and societal threats.The growing importance of fire departments defining and meeting "standards of cover" — performance metrics for different emergency scenarios.CPSE's internal commitment to strategic planning: transitioning from a “fix it” plan to their current “grow it” plan, with a people-first focus.How CPSE manages and celebrates its volunteers, and contractors, whose contributions amount to 28.5 full-time equivalents annually.The launch of the CPSE Center for Innovation, a new subsidiary to support evidence-based decision-making and broaden CPSE's impact in the field.Creation of the CPSE Community Experience to keep departments and credentialed individuals engaged between accreditation cycles.The shift in public safety from public administration to public policy — requiring departments to address homelessness, addiction, mental health, and affordable housing.Preet's Sikh heritage and how the value of seva (selfless service) influences both her career and personal life.References:CPSE WebsiteWhat is Seva?

Send us a textMy good buddy, and multiple time guest, Bill Hanson arranged the meeting between Randy and I!We met, I gave him a hard time about being a second responder, but he was such the gracious guest.

Aaron was an EMT in the Phoenix Valley early in his adult life. He saw some things that made a deep impression on him, some that he could not shake. He went on to become a firefighter for Golder Ranch, but not without some demons which ultimately caught up to him.Randy, thanks again for sharing your story, creating this legacy, and continuing to serve.

It's during the trying that we continue to develop the mindset, tactics, and training that allow us to be effective, safe and successful where it's needed the most, and by sharing our experiences we hope that it may help other Fire Departments in creating what works for them to help bring everyone home safe.THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORTIf you would like to help support us then you can visit us by clicking the link to your favorite social media platform below to Subscribe and be the first to see more of our content!

Today on the Guy Benson Show, Guy reflected on Andrew Cuomo's disastrous COVID-19 record as Cuomo enters the lead in the mayoral race for New York City. Guy read from Sean Newman's (battalion chief with the Fire Department of New York City and husband of Janice Dean) recently published piece, "Cuomo's Covid Misrule Killed My Parents," and reflected on why Cuomo's cover-up might be even worse than his COVID policy. Guy urged New Yorkers to reflect on Cuomo's misdeeds and to remember the victims of his policies as the mayoral race goes into full swing.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In 03/15/25. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. This weekly broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth, neutralize Racists/White people #ANTIBLACKNESS On March 8th of this year, the bodies of Qaadir Malik Lewis and Naazir Rahim Lewis, twin 18-year-old black males, were found dead in a rural area of north Georgia. White enforcement officials concluded this was a murder-suicide. The Lewis (attempted) family members emphatically reject this claim and are vehemently pursing a thorough investigation. Reminiscent of the dastardly, Racist conduct of the Los Angeles County Sheriffs and Fire Departments after the death death of Kobe Bryant, when White officials swapped picks of Bryant's charred remains, a White Georgia volunteer firefighter, Scott Kerlin, was terminated and arrested for publicizing pics of the deceased black teens. Apparently, a group of Towns County High School students gained access to the pics, and made an online group to distribute the gruesome images. #10Stops #ThrowAwayBlackChildren #TheCOWS16Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#
