The idle chit-chat and mischievous banter offered in the Fireworks Brigade - A Pyro Podcast are provided by Johnny Starr and Ron the Banker. Johnny Starr, owner of Starr Fireworks has been designing, importing and selling fireworks and pyrotechnic effects for over three decades. After listening to just the first few minutes of any episode, you will understand that John’s expertise in pyrotechnics is unquestionable. Ron the Banker, part time volunteer and collaborator, spends his Fourth of July with Johnny in the Fargo / Moorhead area selling fireworks to local consumers and national wholesalers. Everyone from the casual backyard enthusiast to the serious pyrotechnician will be informed, enlightened and entertained. The show is sponsored by Starr Fireworks in Fargo North Dakota.

A Decade of Discord
It’s been 10 years since the very first episode of Fireworks Brigade was uploaded to the internet. Since that time, we’ve made it our mission to always inform and entertain our listeners while entertaining each other. For most of this episode, we entertain ourselves and “draft” a fantasy fireworks team. Mad Ox Bob and Dino join us in the draft. Be sure to send us a message and let us know which show you think would be best.
