Joined on this episode of the Weekly Scrap by none other than Zach King! This scrap has been a long time in the making and it finally happened. We had a lot of conversations centered around the word importance! The importance of having a plan. The importance of visualization of those plans. The importance of understanding that we do not always have tomorrow! The importance of the human element as it pertains to our future success. And of course, as always…me and the guests' conversations were beautifully derailed and thrown aside by the questions from the audience! Enjoy the show!

Second half of the kickoff 2026 double header!!!! Joined on this episode by the one and only James Nisbet, and it promises to be a doozy! We plan to discuss getting beyond the pre-connect. The purpose of the first line. Supporting search as the engine. The purpose of system based actions as the engine company (don’t know what this means but it’s provocative) Of course all of our plans as is always the case, will be derailed by the wonderful questions from the audience as we dive down rabbit trails and chase squirrels!

Joined on this unique episode by Cody Maine, and I was excited to have him on for this topic, because I believe it is the future of emergency services and an answer worth exploring. Cody has been on the forefront of implementing Mobile Integrated health in his department and in his state and he is passionate about it’s value to the community and the line firefighters. The audience showed up with their questions and it was a very informative show and I hope it will spark a lot of conversations across the American Fire Service.
