On my third

10 yrs a dispatcher, loved screwing with the guys, especially the cops

Another great show

I’m inclined to believe the stories in the papers of these heroic legends inspired my grandfather to become a member of FDNY in 1932

Great show...well done

Home Run!

His face looks like Mr.Bean with hair from the character Dewey Cox 😂

Engine Co 82 best book ever, I read it like 5 times, first time when I was in high school before i was even a volley

Denis Smith is an awesome guy, i got to meet him and he signed his books for me. i'll never forget this legend

That’s my Gramps! I’m beyond proud to be his granddaughter ❤

Ty for the great show Kubes!

I was a Volley from 1986 (16 yrs old) until 2021 (51 yrs old) and I started reading Chief Dunn at the age of 16. I would read his articles during the day in high school.

Great show! Get some more guys from EMS on the show. I think it would be great way to showcase the amazing work and history of EMS in NY.

Anxiety in the dreams...

I love hearing this Frank!

Great job Frank!

Earn Money Sleeping?😅 When was the last time Gonzo worked on the street? We're doing 5000+ jobs a day almost every day. I'd like time to take a leak, much less slepp.

73 Frank!

Paul was one of the greatest fireman I have ever had the pleasure to learn from and work with

Great show

Great job Frank

I was a volley for 35 years. going to a reported house fire and I look over and see the kid next to me taking a selfie. I told him put the phone down or I will break the fucking thing

Very interesting and informative show ! As a former Tunnel Rat, we didn't fuel up at pcts prior to the merge unless EMS was low on fuel, normally my partner and I would get gas at Sta 39 if we covered the Adam sector and at 57 if we covered the Boy sector. The houses that were really good to the Tunnel Rats for meal were 176, 222 , 237 and 108. Fun fact, heard a rumor that a guy I worked with who was a good guy and cop is a Lt in R4, his old man was an Lt in 222 and we went there for meal one day, brought some entemanns cakes, sat down for a steak dinner and the Batt chief and driver came down, the senior guy asked them for the $ for the meal, one of them tried to have us pay for their meal at which time the crew of 222 told the chief and his driver that not only did we bring entemanns, we didn't have to because we were family !

Good job Frank!

Thank you guys again for the great time.

Frank, you did a great job with the interview. I enjoyed hearing about your fantastic career. The story of you putting your litter in the other ambulance had me in stitches!

Top 10 for sure!!!

I’m one of Chief McElroy’s children and he is such a good man. He also works out almost every day still, he still drives, his memory is unmatched, he has a ton of friends and every where he goes he makes more friends. While we disagree on some things it has never hurt our relationship. I’m am so proud to be his kid.

10 years a County Dispatcher in Upstate NY - Binghamton it can get absolutely crazy, can't imagine NYC Dispatchers great job

Never worked out for me to be a career ff, I'm a retired police officer, listening to these stories reminds of PD locker room and briefing room.

God bless all firefighters. Jay Jonas - so much respect for this guy's virtues. Talking about the photo seen at 2:21:32 where he sits by the ambulance in a blue shirt and one of his guys is in a gurney, I am pretty sure there is a video of this same scene. YT vid called, "WTC1 'Collapse' and Ground Zero raw footage - Sauret". Beginning at the 25 minute, 30 seconds mark, you can see Chief Jonas in the blue shirt and then the man in the gurney. It's from the opposite angle of the photo, and the quality is not as good as the photo, but it sure looks like Jonas and his men.

Thank You! Great Channel and Videos…. Everyone who cares about America and NYC ->> Please Don’t Forget to VOTE TRUMP / VANCE 2024 !

Never got to be a FF in FDNY, ended up a police officer, but much respect to them all. I watch whatever i can regarding Chief Jonas. Such a great leader, great man

Good Day All!

Wish I had stuff to send ya. I got nuttin!

Mickey taught in Academy in mid late 90s when I was getting on. He was a trip. Funny laid back Easy going gentleman. Good to see his face again.

what are straight tours? i have never heard of that before

I was a volley for 35 years and now a retired police officer, I can't stop watching this podcast. Greatest

I worked in 28 Engine - Richie Barto was a very quiet and funny guy and also a great practical joker. (Like the rubber rat in the kitchen cabinet)

Superb once again 👍

EXCELLENT episode!

Great Show Fellas !!

Thanks to the GS crew for the opportunity to discuss the book-and for the listeners and all those purchasing it etc. 🙏

I was at the Ebenezer church fire in Pittsburgh and know exactly what happened. It'll be interesting to read

Great job on the book talk

Suggestion guys. Advise your guests to get close to their mics. Great show otherwise.

God Bless all yous FDNY Brothers!! Ya'll, everyone of you, are SOOOOO my heroes!!! ❤❤❤

Only 14 hours late. Geeeeze

I had the privilege and honor to have one time to be able to call Billy my fire chief.

Haven’t even finished watching the intro and I’m already psyched. Love this show guys. Thank you
