E53: From Football Fields to Safety Files: Wes Rundle on Resilience, Risk, and Why It's Okay to Suck
from The Safety Debris Podcast with Tanya Steele and Richard Dulong · host safetydebris
What do a torn ACL, parkour on rooftops, years of stunt standby work in the film industry, and a brand new white belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu all have in common? They're all part of the wildly varied, genuinely unscripted life of Episode 53 guest Wes Rundle claims manager, NCSO, safety professional, and living proof that the best continuity plan is sometimes the one you never saw coming. At one point in this conversation, Wes drops something that lands harder than any tackle: that being truly humbled by something, getting flat-out beat by a brown belt, flailing on a gymnastics floor, not knowing how to ground your legs at your first football practice is actually exactly where the magic happens. He's also got a real beef with the title "safety officer," and his reasoning might make you rethink the business card in your wallet. Raised by his dad, shaped by discipline, Kendrick Lamar, and Van Morrison on vinyl. Wes Rundle is the kind of safety geek Safety Debris was absolutely made for. Tune in now!
