  • Kaden from Pewaukee
    Great, but needs to be updated more
    Podcasts are great but I am more interested in life safety devices and incidents. Not uploaded enough
  • cosmo12345
    Good Podcast
    Good podcast, but is way way wayyyy too long to digest the information, and are released too infrequently. Would be better to split them into 10-20 minute segments and release the shorter podcasts weekly. My attention span can’t handle an hour of technical discussion at this moment in time.
  • Phil 03472
