Alan Gates and Richard Borley are retired firefighters with decades of experience in rescuing people and animals alike. We explore their journey into the profession, hear some tales of dramatic rescues and learn about the evolution of firefighting techniques and standards. The discussion highlights the emotional toll of the job and the camaraderie among firefighters, while also addressing the risks of toxic exposure and the importance of community service. Oh, and yeah, several people get impaled in this one.
