This has quickly become one of my favorite podcasts. I have always wanted a fanfiction writers “dvd commentary” and that’s *exactly* what this podcast is. Such a wonderful idea! Listening to this show has helped me get out of my writing slump! It has also filled a void in my life. I don’t have many friends that watch 9-1-1 and this podcast makes me feel like a part of a bigger community.

I also did not find this show through tumblr 😂. I do exist !

Funny story - I’m a graduate student working on a research project comparing training across the first responder space. For that project, I’ve been observing training at my local dispatch center. After leaving observation one day, I searched Apple Podcasts for “911 dispatch” podcasts, hoping to find commentary from real life dispatchers about their jobs. Instead I found this 😂 and I love it !
