    Wildfire mitigation specialist Joe Zwierzchowski joins us to share his experiences from out West and here in the panhandle!

    John gets an opportunity to sit down with Joe Zwierzchowski, a local wildfire mitigation specialist in Milton, FL who has recently been fighting big fires in the West.  Joe flew home for a few days after fighting fires in Oregon, but is headed back out next week to California and graciously took the time to share his knowledge with us.  We cover how he transitioned from a focus in journalism to a career with the Florida Forest Service and how his former passion still plays a major role in his current career.  There is much to learn from Joe's stories and expertise, especially if you are interested in a career in wildland firefighting or just curious about how we manage for such things.  It was a real treat to have Joe and we can't wait to have him back again.  Thanks for listening! Tell your friends! Produced by: John Tracy Music: "Early Sun" by Crowander

    Sassafras and Wildfire. What a combination!

    In episode 2, John and Ashton talk about our second tree of the day, sassafras (Sassafras albidum), and we begin a dialogue about current large wildfires in the western Unites States.  Have we always managed forests properly to prevent wildfires?  Why don't we see such large wildfires in the southeast US?  Listen in as we cover a topic that makes headlines every summer.  At the end, you will hear an update on the Dixie Fire and learn who our first expert guest on wildfire will be in an upcoming episode.  Cheers!
