This podcast is perfect whether you want in-depth knowledge on most firefighting subjects of just some light hearted entertainment. I’d highly recommend the debriefs as it’s there’s a lot to be learnt from the harsh realities of being a firefighter. Passionate, funny and all round good guys describes not just Pete, but all the guests he has on!
