Failure Is Always An Options With The Guys From Twisted Fire Industries

All Clear - A Firefighter Health & Wellness Podcast

Are you ready to challenge what you know about firefighting? Join us for an invigorating conversation with the trailblazers from Twisted Fire Industries, Joe, Thomas, and Jared. We're shaking up the status quo, questioning foundational training methods, and the relevance of conventional fire training in a rapidly evolving field. We argue for enhancing the street-smart foundation for rookie firefighters, and the need for constantly updated textbooks that reflect the realities on the ground.
Moving on, we dive deep into the role of a company officer. It's not all about calling the shots, but also understanding the unique training needs of their team and filling in the gaps. We explore the importance of discipline and humility for continuous improvement, and warn against the dangers of not addressing training scars. The conversation gets real as we underline the crucial role of realism in training, and highlight the risks that come with training the wrong way.
The conversation wouldn't be complete without touching on advanced firefighter training. We discuss how a change in mindset, eliminating excuses, and embracing the unconventional can lead to massive strides in skill advancements. We also delve into the role of physical fitness, personal ownership, and the benefits of being the 'odd one' in your crew. We also discuss how platforms like social media can serve as a gateway to advanced training opportunities.
This is a must-listen for a fresh, insightful perspective on the fire service scene.
