Punk Rock Safety

This podcast isn't meant to make you feel better about your ideas on safety. A lot of them are probably wrong. We're not saying you aren’t smart or that we are, but probability isn't in our favor. It’s just a recognition that there are a lot of s****y ideas about safety out there, and pure chance suggests we all share some of them. This podcast is here to fight safety b******t. The three of us – Ben, Dave, and Ron – are here to talk about organizational safety, resilience, and human performance, but with a different perspective on things than you might be used to. Punk rock is about abandoning ideas that aren’t useful, being unafraid to push boundaries and sometimes fail, and doing it yourself when the things you need don’t exist. Here’s what Greg Graffin from Bad Religion says: “Punk is a process of questioning and commitment to understanding that results in self-progress, and by extrapolation, could lead to social progress. Punk is a belief that this world is what we make of it. Truth comes from our understanding of the way things are, not from the blind adherence to prescriptions about the way things should be.” Sounds good to us. Question everything.

    Ep. 18: The War On Errorism

    Yet another NOFX inspired title, huh? Yep. We're a one-trick pony around here. The boys have finally gotten around to human error, which is a theme for this podcast anyway. Maybe there's a difference between fuck-up and error, though? It's been a "squishy" part of understanding safety, incidents, performance, efficiency, etc. for a long time. Mostly, Ron just likes saying "squishy." So, what is human error? Is it a legitimate concern or a red herring? Where does intent and context come into the equation? Somewhere in the mix of stupid conversation, there's some useful discussion on all of those topics and more. What do you think? Is error just a function of random variation or is it the dumb people that are causing all the problems?

    Ep. 17: 21st Century Digital Boy (With Colette Alexander)

    This one's a little different. The title may give some of that away (and it's a Bad Religion song). None of your three hosts are tech wizards, but Collette Alexander joins the pod, and she is (even though she might argue that). Collette has been a professional cellist, worked in software engineering at Spotify, and earned a Masters degree from Lund University in Human Factors. She's got a lot of tattoos, too. There's a lot of banter, but the thing this episode really looks at is how reliability in software compares to other kinds of human work. And there's some thinking about why folks in safety often look at software as a sort of savior (hint: the software people are the first ones to tell you that reliance on software is a pretty fucking bad idea). Collette shares experience with "shallow metrics," iterative design and test environments, and what Dave has named the five Cs. We learned a lot on this one. Software, AI, and digital safety tools are still a weird, wild world - at least if we don't understand the limitations.

    Ep. 16: Fuck Authority

    It's Episode 16, punks. The boys start this one with a peek behind the curtain into just how much prep goes into the pod. Spoiler: not a lot. It's sort of like a punk show that way. The topic for 16 is regulators, which means it's a great time for Pennywise's Fuck Authority (link in the show notes). That's probably not a great way to handle regulation, though. So what can you do? Are all regulations important? Do we have to respond to each one with some sort of 'thing' we can point to to satisfy a rule, or are we just making shit up sometimes? That's the topic when the guys can focus, but there's the usual bullshit, too. Check it out, there's actually some good stuff in there.

    Ep. 15.5: Someone Else Is Hurt

    Alright, the First Annual PRS Field Trip was a success. Well, Ron f****d up our TRIR, but it was a success other than that. We recorded a short episode midway through the 3-day Punk in Drublic Festival. Ben is sleepy, Dave's jetlagged, and Ron's head hurts, but we made it. This episode is short because we've got video of some of the live performances. Until someone complains and they get taken down. Watch it on YouTube, ya animals. It's better that way.

    Ep. 15: Sellouts

    In punk, being a sellout means you've abandoned the punk rock culture: anti-authority, DIY, non-conformity, and tearing apart systems that don't work for the people. So what happens if you shake up the idea of safety culture as a cornerstone? Fucking sellouts. The boys talk about culture, some new publications on it, and how it's used as a lazy response to issues with safety or resilience. And there are some discussions about how to make the culture something more than just an excuse when shit goes wrong. Maybe it's not about selling out? You'll figure it out. Listen to the episode.

    Ep. 14: Risk Assess-holes

    When's the last time the outcome of a risk assessment was a surprise? Thought so. So why do we do risk assessments, anyway? Are we really making decisions based on them? It doesn't sound like it. Is it a social process, then? Shit, man, that's a lame party. The boys try to sort through the mess of matrices, JHAs, JSAs, safety risk committees, and all that to get to what we actually expect from an assessment of risk. Oh, and don't forget the 1st Annual PRS Field Trip October 4-6 in LA at the Punk in Drublic Fest.

    Ep. 13: I Heard They Suck Live! (With Sam Goodman)

    Fine. You're right. The title is also the name of a NOFX album. NOFX is rad, though, so we're keeping it. This week, we're talking to a kickass guest, Sam Goodman, about making safety less sucky. Sam even wrote a book about it. The truth is, a lot of people have experienced working with safety folks that just come across as a******s, or buzzkills, or cops, or knobs. It's not a surprise that most people aren't super-stoked to hear the safety person is on-site next week, right? There are a few things that probably help dispel the myth that safety is about catching someone doing it wrong, though. That's what the lucky 13th episode is all about: what are we doing to make safety more relatable, useful, and less s****y?

    Ep. 12: Fuck Safety, Make Money

    It's episode 12, and we've got a new quote for a T-shirt, and instead of "goal conflicts," we just went with the title of the episode. Watch the merch store; we'll get it sorted. So, safety first, right? Maybe. Sometimes. Definitely, when someone asks, I guess. Like we say in the episode, there's probably not a room of executives who hate everything safety. It'd be a weird party, though. The boys talk through some stories, goal conflicts, impossible positions, error traps, and some other stuff that isn't exactly related but is fun anyway. It's a little tricky, and maybe the punk rock thing is just saying that "safety first" isn't possible. Or whatever.
