    In this gripping episode, we delve into the incredible story of Kegan Gill, a former US Navy F/A-18E Super Hornet pilot, whose life took a dramatic turn following the fastest ejection in the history of naval aviation. Facing what seemed to be insurmountable odds, Kegan's tale is not just one of survival but of extraordinary resilience and determination. After ejecting from his aircraft at an unprecedented speed, Kegan endured over a dozen surgeries and a grueling two-year rehabilitation process, challenging both his physical and mental limits.

Rob has An Effective Podcast

The Podcast experience was superb. Rob asked awesome questions that led to a great discussion on leadership and other key topics. In addition, the topics led to information that will help listeners on a leadership journey and provide them with tools, techniques, and practices versus management theory. Rob has created an outstanding way to take his experiences and those of his guest, to help build community throughout the virtual world.

Firewalking 🔥👣 with Fireman Rob!! 😎

Being a guest on the "Forged In The Fire" podcast with Master Host: Robert (Firemen Rob) Verhelst is like flying on a private jet for the first time, flying after that is never the same.

Rob is a super cool guy and is at the top of his game in the podcasting space.
