Race Week! I'm heading to Lincoln, Nebraska for a 78 mile gravel race and this week has been jam packed.  Today alone I bough a new truck, took the truck and camper to the shop to get the hitch adjusted, then sold my old truck to Carmax.  

Since I still can't manage my time, this week is a repost of one of the most popular episodes.  Enjoy, share, rate, and review.  If you're really motivated please find the Buy Me A Coffee button and show your support that way! Thank you!

Testing, Interviewing, Academy, and Probation are the steps to get in the door at a fire department.  Curt and I hit on these topics and offer some stories and lessons we've learned along the way.

The more things change, the more they stay the same and becoming a firefighter is a great example of that. Sure, tests may be administered remotely instead of sitting in a gym with 500 other applicants.  But, the lessons and tools needed to be a professional firefighter are rooted in hard work, service, and learning.

As a bonus, the next batch of episodes will have some True Detective talk since the fourth season just kicked off.  No real spoilers in this one but more to come.
