Explorez tous les épisodes du podcast The EMS Lounge

Getting tired of making these episodes. It seems the new hires don't seem to understand about our pay.

Have you ever found out about a job that turned out to be a dream job you didn't know you wanted? I did.

There's enough issues in the world, you do not need to get involved.

Talking about the LA City Fire Engine just got put on its side.  

I have dealt with Imposter Syndrome pretty much my whole life. This is what it's been like since I got into this business. 

Back in Jan of 2024 I did a show about AMR being done in San Bernardino County. A lot of people thought I was wrong because AMR was fighting it. They pushed it to the federal court system.  Here's what happened and why it's a good thing for the employees of AMR in San Bernardino County. 

We are all guilty of being a hypocrite at some point. 

Today we are doing things a little different.  

Ever wonder why EMS is treated like the red headed step child? Here ya go. 

I dive into the numbers of private EMS and guess what? You're not getting that raise you want. 

I am at a crossroads of what to do with The EMS Lounge.  It's the reason I've been gone from the socials lately. 

What can the fire service learn from Kat Williams?

No, I am not exaggerating. This is a recipe for disaster. 

List to how my friend 'Chris' and I have a different perspective on how we see our jobs (PTSD). I was able to change his thinking, maybe it will change yours as well. 

My latest YouTube video converted to MP3 for the podcast. Enjoy. 

Just somethings that came to mind recently. Just know, I (probably) hate you. 

Are you mad that you can't buy a home on EMS salary? No one cares. Work harder. 

I was recently challenged by Turk at www.spinningourgears.com. So, challenge accepted. 

Go follow them in IG and YT. 

I finally got to sit down with Jon from Rescue 1 CBD. He's got a special offer for his new product. Give it a listen and get some free stuff.

It's probably more than you think. It's time we changed the culture of our industry. 

Have you ever ran the perfect call? The one where no one has to say a word and yet everything gets done.

Stop being insulted by random posts on the social media. 

Listening to the Joe Rogan podcast with Bernie Sanders I found myself yelling at the radio.  Multiple times. I normally agree with Joe but this time I just couldn't. It prompted me to do this one.  Enjoy. Feel free to message me @the_ems_lounge on instagram. 

Dont forget to check out Rescue 1 CBD products. I have a link and code in my IG bio for you.  

We recently were sponsored by Rescue 1 CBD. Listen as to why I chose them and how it's changing the industry. 

Part 3 of the re-release of some episodes. 

Had a few episodes not update in Apple Podcasts so I am re-uploading them. 

Had to reupload the episode to get it into Apple Podcasts. 

You're not addicted to food. Listen to my friend and Registered Dietician and Nurse teach you ways to eat healthy, balance your blood sugar, lose weight all while eating the foods you already eat and like.

I was brought up in the fire service by John Wayne. 

Your patients and your victims dont care about anything except whether or not you are competent and can save them.  That's it. Nogthing more, nothing less. 

Uncrustables are nasty and should be banned. I said what I said and you can fight me on it.  

Thank you to everyone who interacted with my post about them on Instagram.  

Just listen to it. 

An Instagram page known as @dispatchducks put up a post about the phone calls that come into departments during large incidents. The amount of stupidity amongst people never ceases to amaze me. 

Got a chance to be on the Pragmedic Podcast. It was a great discussion. It's also the result of ADHD in First Responders.

How good is your resume as a first responder? I'll bet it's better than you think. 

Are you stuck working the holidays or do you have the honor and privilege of working? Here's my take on it, but you may not like it. 

I was recently, somewhat, challenged by Conduct_unbecoming to shift gears of the podcast. So, I took his advice. 

When is the last time you trained for your job? Like, actually trained? 

Have you guys heard this story out of Lake Lure North Carolina? Holy Sh!t. 

Do you have a group of people you are comfortable around? I do. 

For some of us, we are always in our comfort zone. 

Nice interview with @salty_operators in Instagram. He's got years of experience that we discuss about operations and day to day stuff that goes along with the attitude of Do Better. 

Out of all the conspiracy theories over the last 3 years, I would say 99% have come true. Listen to Tucky from rancid_commode go over some of the more famous ones. 

These podcasts nearly write themselves at this point. All these Chiefs are messing up so bad that it's making my writing easy. 

It's time to bring back bullying. My whole life I've hated bullying and always stood up for the little guys.  I think it's time we bring it back with the way ya'll been acting lately. 

Let's just let the hate build. I know most of you don't like this topic. So that's why I'm talking about it now. 

When your life is on the line, who do you want to be working with? The most qualified or the most diverse?

Continuation of last week's episode. I am tired of hearing that people don't want to work or that their feelings got hurt.  If you can't or won't do the job, then you need to home. 

In lieu of all the weak people in this world, This one is for you. If you are easily offended, don't listen. And just go home. This one will surely offend some people. 

I was watching the olympics and it occurred to me....we need to have the first responder Olympic Games.  

I would never racially profile someone but I do play the numbers.
