We are the WTL podcast, “Where Training Leads.”

Our philosophy here is that excellences is all of our own individual responsibilities. And that responsibility starts Within the Thin Line communities.

We thrive to provide our members a place at our table, just like at the firehouse, where they can solve all the worlds problems; share their stories, reflect on experiences, learn from and educate one another, and most importantly, understand the need for mental and physical strength conditioning.

We provide a safe haven for members to know that it’s okay to not be okay, and that some of the best support they can find is from their very own brothers and sisters of their communities. We are a veteran owned; Firefighter, Medic, LEO/Nurse hosted podcast organization, accredited to provide educational training events and self reflections as we are witnessed to “have the conversations nobody wants to have, but need to have.”

Welcome to the WTL podcast, grab a seat, enjoy your stay.

Our honor is through your success.

Simple Table Talk

They always say that the kitchen table or tailboard is where you can solve a lot of problem. These guys just happen to do it behind a mic. Listening to this podcast reminds me of talking with a group of co workers or friends.
And thats how listening to this podcast is… a group of friends sitting around a table talking about issues that need to be discussed within the thin line community.
I love the fact that they group everyone together. (Police, Fire, EMS, Military)
Keep up the great podcast guys.

Great Respect

I have a great respect for these gentlemen that are willing to bring it to the table every episode. They’ve broke the mold, and the stigma around mental health in this business. Keep doing what your doing.
Mad respect gents, stay safe and much love.
