Who are you when the title is gone? In this raw and reflective episode of Through the Fire, we explore what it means to rediscover your identity in Christ after the role, the dream, or the achievement you clung to has been stripped away. I'm sharing the personal journey of losing the title “Firefighter,” and the deeper work God did to remind me that my worth isn't in what I do—but in who He says I am. If you've ever felt lost in the in-between, this one's for you. Let's uncover what was always true: you are still chosen, still called, and still His. If you want to learn how to embrace the Dirt on your journey, come join me over on Substack at kawailani.substack.com
A devastating fire broke out at The Gabriel House, an assisted living facility in Fall River, last Sunday, killing now 10 people as another person has succumbed to injuries because of the fire. Was this a preventable tragedy and if so, how? Was the assisted living facility up to code? Investigators have not yet determined the cause of the fire but have said it is not considered suspicious. However, there is speculation over whether higher firefighting staffing levels would have saved more lives. This fire has shone a light on what has been a long simmering dispute over fire department staffing. Edward Kelly, president of the International Association of Fire Fighters and Lt. Jay Burns with the Fall River Fire Department joined us to discuss.
Kidd kicks things off with a wild bus ride where a woman took "rude" to the next level
On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, actor and cultural icon Steve Guttenberg calls in! Adam kicks things off by asking Steve about his experience during the Palisades fires, and the two dive into the state's slow and confusing rebuilding efforts. Adam praises Guttenberg's classic film Diner, and they share stories about their early days breaking into the entertainment business. Steve recalls his time at The Groundlings, where he met the legendary Paul Reubens (Pee-Wee Herman), and they discuss the 40th anniversary of Police Academy. Adam asks Steve what kind of sandwiches his mom used to make for him growing up, then delivers Steve his earth-shattering sandwich rating.Later, Jason “Mayhem” Miller joins Adam for the news. First, they break down a bizarre story out of the Hollywood Hills where a suspected arsonist was caught in the act and stopped by fitness influencers on the Runyon Canyon hiking trail. Firefighters had to deploy both ground and aerial resources to contain the blaze, which had already spread to a quarter-acre. Then, they discuss a shocking double homicide in Encino involving longtime American Idol music supervisor Robin Kaye and her husband Thomas Deluca. Police responded to a welfare check and discovered both victims dead in their home, with signs pointing to a violent home invasion days earlier. A 22-year-old suspect has been arrested and is facing murder charges as the LAPD continues its investigation.Get it on.FOR MORE WITH STEVE GUTTENBERG:MOVIE: Kidnapped by a Killer: The Heather Robinson StoryINSTAGRAM: @steveguttenbergTWITTER: @steve_guttenberFOR MORE WITH JASON “MAYHEM” MILLER: INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: @mayhemmillerWEBSITE: www.mayhemnow.com Thank you for supporting our sponsors:BetOnlineHomes.comForThePeople.com/ADAMoreillyauto.com/ADAMSHOPIFY.COM/carollaPluto.tvLIVE SHOWS: July 17 - Plymouth, WIJuly 19 - Plymouth, WIJuly 20 - Milwaukee, WIAugust 6 - Reno, NVAugust 7 - Portland, ORSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

19 years of combination experience. Lieutenant with Effingham County Fire/Rescue in Georgia on Engine 9. Jennifer never grew up dreaming of becoming a Firefighter. She was a Medical assistant in the Oncology research department. One day while hanging with a friend she ran a call involving a child. After the call was over one of the Captain's who responded asked her if she ever thought about joining the fire department. Fast forward to today when you hear Jennifer talk you can tell how switching over to the fire service was one of the best decisions she made in her life. Jennifer doesn't like to talk about herself and I truly can respect that but she makes valid points on the topics we discussed and I hope you all can enjoy the conversation. IG: jennwright21
In today's episode, we're tackling the often-unspoken side of leadership and culture the subtle, psychological dynamics that quietly corrode healthy teams. While most of my experiences with leaders in the fire service have been overwhelmingly positive, we can't ignore the fact that some individuals, though not blatantly toxic, still manage to suppress, sideline, or demoralise the people around them. These behaviours don't always lead to disciplinary action, but they do drive good people out of the job, robbing them of fulfilment and joy. This conversation isn't about blame it's about awareness, insight, and action.Joining me is Dr. Nathalie Martinek, a scientist-turned-relational leadership expert, who helps professionals navigate complex power dynamics, covert narcissism, and cultural dysfunctions in the workplace. We'll explore topics like imposter syndrome, soft control tactics, empathy fatigue, and how to identify manipulative personalities that often hide in plain sight. If you've ever walked away from an interaction feeling unseen or undermined but couldn't quite explain why this episode will make you feel heard. And if none of this sounds familiar to you… well, as they say: if you don't know who the arsehole in the room is....it might be you.ACCESS THE PODCAST LIBRARY & EVERY EPISODE, DEBRIEF & DOCUMENT CLICK HEREPODCAST GIFT - Get your 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.

From life-or-death decisions to navigating departmental politics, Rafael pulls back the curtain on his 27-year career as a San Francisco firefighter paramedic in this captivating conversation about service, sacrifice, and survival.Rafael's journey began in 1990 as a paramedic with no intention of joining the fire department. When the city merged emergency services in 1997, he found himself thrust into a hostile environment where paramedics were viewed with suspicion and resentment by traditional firefighters. "There were fistfights," Rafael recalls, describing the decade-long tension that followed the controversial merger.The weight of responsibility in emergency services becomes starkly apparent as Rafael shares his experiences delivering death notifications and making split-second medical decisions. One particularly haunting story involves his first time telling a young woman her boyfriend had died from an overdose. "When you tell somebody their family member is dead, they'll never forget that moment," he explains, emphasizing how critical empathy becomes in these devastating circumstances.Perhaps most gripping is Rafael's account of his own brush with death during a gas explosion response. Separated from his crew in pitch darkness as his oxygen supply dwindled, he experienced a surreal moment of calm while wondering, "Is this where it ends?" His matter-of-fact recounting of the incident reveals the psychological resilience required of first responders who routinely face mortality.Beyond the emergencies themselves, Rafael offers candid insights into the politics affecting emergency services, the realities of homelessness and addiction in San Francisco, and the surprising ways social media has transformed public interactions with first responders. Now retired and pursuing a second career in scalp micropigmentation, his story stands as a powerful testament to finding purpose after decades of high-stress service.What will stay with you long after listening is Rafael's remarkable ability to maintain his humanity despite regularly witnessing tragedy. His journey reminds us that behind every emergency response is a person making difficult choices while carrying the emotional weight of a community's most devastating moments.To follow Rafael and his incredible journey: INSTAGRAM- @optimized_smpTIKTOK- @http://tiktok.com/@optimized_4_impact —Support the showFollow Wild Chaos on Social Media: Apple iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-wild-chaos-podcast/id1732761860Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5KFGZ6uABb1sQlfkE2TIoc?si=8ff748aa4fc64331 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildchaospodcastBam's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bambam0069Youtube: https://youtube.com/@wildchaospodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wildchaosshowMeta (Facebook): https://www.facebook.com/TheWildChaosPodcast
In 2010, a terrifying blaze tore through the high-rise apartments at 200 Wellesley Street East in Toronto, pushing firefighters and resources to their absolute limits. Crews faced intense heat, heavy smoke, and severe challenges with stairwell access and evacuation on upper floors, making it one of the city's most complex high-rise fires. The incident exposed critical gaps in aerial operations, communications, and staging under extreme conditions, forcing a hard look at the realities of high-rise firefighting.The “Fire in the Sky” would go on to shape high-rise firefighting in Toronto forever, leading to significant changes in training, equipment, and operational guidelines. From improved stairwell pressurization and backup air systems to refined accountability and evacuation protocols, the lessons from 200 Wellesley became a turning point for the service and a reminder of the constant need to adapt, prepare, and protect both firefighters and residents in the vertical cities we serve.Connect with Brent Brooks HEREACCESS THE PODCAST LIBRARY & EVERY EPISODE, DEBRIEF & DOCUMENT CLICK HEREPODCAST GIFT - Get your 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.

Firefighters 49xxxx (004) Jimmy Not Guilty of False Alarms
GDP Script/ Top Stories for July 12th Publish Date: July 12th PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, July 12th and Happy Birthday to Christine McVie I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett charges dropped against detained journalist Mario Guevara Georgia Power to update energy forecasts amid uncertain demand Lawmakers conclude listening tour on access to cancer care All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Gwinnett charges dropped against detained journalist Mario Guevara Local journalist Mario Guevara, known for covering Atlanta's Hispanic community and ICE operations, is no longer facing traffic charges in Gwinnett County. Solicitor General Lisamarie Bristol announced insufficient evidence to prosecute charges of reckless driving, unlawful use of a telecommunication device, and failure to obey signs, as the incidents occurred on private property. However, Guevara still faces federal immigration charges, with ICE questioning his legal status despite his work permit and ongoing efforts toward permanent residency. Guevara claims he is being targeted for his journalism, which has drawn local and national attention. STORY 2: Georgia Power to update energy forecasts amid uncertain demand Georgia Power's 2025 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) faces scrutiny for overestimating energy demand, driven by the rapid growth of data centers. Critics, including environmental groups, argue the projections could leave ratepayers covering billions in stranded assets if demand falls short. While Georgia Power committed to updating forecasts and reporting on large-load projects, many called for stronger demand-side management (DSM) efforts to reduce energy needs. The utility plans to increase DSM spending from $90M to $160M annually, but some remain dissatisfied. The PSC will vote next week, with debates ongoing over coal plant operations and natural gas upgrades. STORY 3: Lawmakers conclude listening tour on access to cancer care Around 66,000 Georgians will be diagnosed with cancer this year, with 19,000 deaths expected, prompting state lawmakers to study ways to reduce these rates. Georgia exceeds national averages for lung, prostate, breast, and colorectal cancer, with rural areas facing significant barriers to care due to rising costs, limited access, and medical industry consolidation. Experts highlighted issues like pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) controlling drug markets and low reimbursement rates for clinics. Lawmakers aim to address drug pricing, access to screenings, and systemic healthcare challenges, with plans to continue studying cancer care access and solutions. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: STORY 4: Deputies: Buford man threw deep freezer at 59-year-old at Lake Lanier after fight over nudity A Buford man, Logan Nicholas Young, 42, was arrested on July 3 after a bizarre incident on Lake Lanier involving public indecency, a fight, and a flying deep freezer. Young allegedly got naked on a boat, argued with a 59-year-old man, punched him, and later threw a deep freezer at him, causing a head injury and knocking him into the lake. Deputies found Young hiding under a bed on his houseboat after he ignored their attempts to contact him. He was charged with six offenses, including aggravated assault, and released on bond on July 6. STORY 5: Robert Michener named Gateway85 CID's interim executive director The Gateway85 Community Improvement District (CID) appointed longtime employee Robert Michener as interim executive director following Emory Morsberger's resignation after nearly 20 years of involvement. Michener, with 17 years at Gateway85, previously served as director of operations, overseeing infrastructure, security, and landscaping projects. Board Chairman Shiv Aggarwal praised Morsberger's contributions and welcomed Michener's leadership during the transition. The CID will continue focusing on economic development, mobility, and quality of life improvements as it searches for a permanent leader. Michener expressed excitement about guiding the district's next phase of growth. Break 3: STORY 6: 'Superman' stars excited to bring DC reboot to theaters Edi Gathegi, Isabela Merced, and Anthony Carrigan star in the new "Superman" reboot, with Gathegi playing Mr. Terrific, Merced as Hawkgirl, and Carrigan debuting as Metamorpho. At a red carpet event in Atlanta, Gathegi contrasted his survival as Mr. Terrific with his infamous death as Darwin in "X-Men: First Class." Merced highlighted the mix of CGI and practical sets, comparing her Hawkgirl role to her experience in "Dora the Explorer." Carrigan, excited to bring fan-favorite Metamorpho to life, praised the detailed makeup used instead of CGI. STORY 7: Gwinnett fire investigators say arsonist tried to burn down Lawrenceville home Gwinnett County fire officials are investigating a suspected arson at a Lawrenceville home on Clairidge Lane on June 27. Firefighters responded to a fire alarm and smoke report, discovering an incendiary device behind the home. The fire was out by the time they arrived, and no injuries were reported. Officials are seeking public help to identify the suspect, with a potential reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction. Tips can be directed to the Gwinnett Fire Investigations Section or the Georgia Arson Control Hotline.

Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Burt Jones enters race for Georgia governor Lt. Gov. Burt Jones announced his 2026 Georgia gubernatorial bid, highlighting Republican-led achievements like economic growth, safer communities, and stronger schools. In his campaign video, Jones pledged to eliminate state income tax and combat fentanyl overdoses. A former state senator and UGA football co-captain, Jones emphasized his ties to Donald Trump, despite past investigations into the 2020 election. He joins Attorney General Chris Carr in the GOP primary, while Democrats like Keisha Lance Bottoms and Jason Esteves are also running. Georgia Democratic Chair Charlie Bailey criticized Jones’ leadership, citing issues like rural hospital closures and inequitable tax policies. STORY 2: Lilburn wants to keep millage rate the same, but that means a property tax increase Lilburn plans to maintain its 4.43 millage rate, but rising property values mean higher taxes for residents. Property taxes make up 27% of the city’s general fund. Public hearings on the rate are set for Friday at 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., with a third on July 14 at 6 p.m., followed by a council vote at 7:30 p.m. at City Hall. Homeowners with a $278,600 property value and homestead exemption will see a $42.79 tax increase, while non-homestead properties of the same value will rise by $44.80.

The city announced a temporary halt due to a "utility conflict" involving electrical infrastructure, delaying completion. However, Gwinnett County officials clarified the project is active, with coordination ongoing with Georgia Power to resolve utility issues.

Grocery stores often throw away products that are not expired, but that are past their suggested “Best by” date. That may change in Pennsylvania thanks to a new law signed by Gov. Josh Shapiro last week. It's been more than a century since archeologists discovered the tomb of the Egyptian Pharaoh known as King Tut. Several members of the discovery team suffered untimely deaths shortly after, and the myth of the “mummy’s curse” was born. Scientists believe that team may have actually been exposed to a toxic fungus. Now, researchers at the University of Pennsylvania say that same fungus could help fight cancer. A recent three day clinic allowed firefighters in the city of Wilkes-Barre to get screened for cancer. First responders have an increased risk of cancer from so-called forever chemicals known as P-FAS, which can come from firefighting gear and smoke inhalation. Republican Congressman Dan Meuser - who explored a run for Pennsylvania governor - reportedly won't challenge Democratic Governor Josh Shapiro next year, even after getting an endorsement from President Donald Trump. More than 450 wildland firefighters are now prepared to repond to wildfires across Pennsylvania and nationwide after training at Shippensburg University. Firefighters from 11 states attended the week-long training, offered through the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources' Bureau of Forestry. York City's comprehensive plan appears to be stalled... three months after it was last scheduled for a vote by city council members. A draft of the 200-page plan was previously available on the city's website, but it was removed sometime between April and July.

Send us a textWhen 70-year-old Michael Chambers disappeared from his Quinlan, Texas workshop in March 2017, he left behind more questions than answers. After decades as a respected Dallas firefighter, Michael had settled into retirement enjoying his classic cars, woodcutting, and time with family. All that changed when his wife Becca returned home from work to find his truck in the driveway but no sign of her husband of 37 years.Inside his locked workshop, the scene was puzzling – his wallet sat on the counter with cash still inside, but his driver's license was missing. Expensive tools remained untouched. Most disturbingly, drops of blood dotted the floor in what one expert would later describe as looking "too perfect" – almost staged. Michael's phone was gone, and when authorities tracked its final movements, they discovered a strange pattern: the device had traveled to the Two Mile Bridge over Lake Tawakoni twice that day, once at driving speed and later at the pace of a bicycle.The investigation took unexpected turns as Michael's wife canceled his phone service just ten days after his disappearance, sold his truck, and initiated proceedings to have him declared legally dead within months. During polygraph questioning, she revealed a history of extramarital affairs, including one that had ended just five months earlier. While investigators cleared her of involvement, these actions raised eyebrows among Michael's children and community members.For six long years, the case remained unsolved until human remains were discovered in 2022 near Highway 276, not far from the bridge where Michael's phone last pinged. An old bicycle was found nearby – adding another layer to the mystery, as family members insisted there had still been a bike at the house after his disappearance. Was this elaborately staged suicide by a man with bad knees who somehow bicycled miles to a nine-foot bridge? Or was it murder disguised as something else?Join us as we examine the evidence, theories, and lingering questions in this Texas mystery that continues to divide a family and community.
