THE STANDARD ISSUE RSS

What's it like going through a 24-hour hands-on class? Find out as we recap what we learned as a cadre following this training.

Standard Issue: Focusing on the winners, waking up from death, parking lot camping, and training solo....that’s what’s currently going on in public safety news!

Standard Issue: Stabbings, fatherhood, the ole' fire station on fire story, and breaking the rules....that’s what’s currently going on in public safety news!

Chris "Paco" Ciocarlan hangs out with us for a bit and we talk about Halloween, family, blue collar jobs, training, and unions.

Standard Issue: Fake guns and media bias, firefighter pumpkin growers, new age tackling skills, FDNY bribery schemes, and hotel beat downs....that’s what’s currently going on in public safety news!

Standard Issue: Youth sports fans, keeping up foreign relations, and flatulence in the fire house kitchen....that’s what’s currently going on in public safety news!

We take a scroll through our DM's and find some talking points about some short videos. Childhood obesity and mental health, PD foot chases, cold blooded killers, fire ground training, elk porch pirates, and failed parenting.

We discuss the Mile High Fire Conference, elk hunting, and some reels.

Tom & his crew talk about responding to a 2020 incident with multiple trapped parties and rescues.
