  • Abysmal Audio Quality

    Can barely hear the guest talk most of the time. Constant background noise

  • Sad to watch the slip

    Sad that the editorial staff of this magazine feels it’s appropriate to stoop to “angry old man yells at clouds” style political rants instead of leading the fire service through the fog of today. We’re not here to hear you parrot political commentary that you watched from your recliner last night.

  • Full of great stuff, just be patient.

    Usually takes about 5-10 mins at the beginning of each episode before you get to the actual content. Just like most Fire training sessions.

  • Great content the audio

    I like this podcast my favorite episode was when you guys had our fire department, recruitment officer, captain, Jason Shanley on it I know that was last year but I decided to leave this review now the audio on that podcast was amazing. Thank you so much for having San Diego Fire Rescue on the podcast. The future podcasts now that I listen to them the audio to be honest with you it does not sound really good let’s try and do better on the audio.

  • Background noise

    The content has been very good but almost every episode has some kind of distracting background noise. I can only put up with so much before I just move on to something else. Audio has been inconsistent.
