    Greg explains his unique road to WFRD and what drives him in life. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation and appreciate Greg's honesty and humility. We discussed new guy mentality, speculated on the future of WFRD, dove into reputations, and at the end Greg makes a genuine request.

    Cut and Run - Quinn Murphy's story

    I'm a big fan of this one. Quinn joined me in the garage and talked about his start, his journey to the military, and where all of that may lead him. Make sure you tune in until the end where you will hear an unreleased song titled "Roger" from his band, Cut and Run. He also was kind enough to gift me the new intro track for the podcast! Cut and Run - available on Spotify

    Chief Ralph Webster

    Chief Ralph Webster, alongside his wife Kristen, joined me in the garage. We had a great conversation ranging in topics, from the creation of WFRD and its early years, all the way to leadership and mental health. Chief Webster was generous enough to share some emotional lessons he learned along his career, both personal and professional. Everyone can take something away from this episode.

    Trevor Nieman

    Trevor leaves no doubt behind, he wants to be part of WFRD. He shares his unique story ranging from Texas to Illinois, that somehow even involves a little surfing. We talked about his experiences outside of WFRD that helped shape him to who he is today and where he would like to see his career, and life, take him. There is no question, Trevor has created his own name, and place, at WFRD.

    Standing on business - Tyler Webster

    Service before self and dying on hills. Tyler lays it all out and shares what makes him stay true to himself, his views on the fire service, growing up in a firehouse, and we even manage to squeeze in some civil war history. Tyler shared some very personal and emotional stories and I am very thankful to have had him as a guest.
