In Episode 335 of the Medic2Medic Podcast, Steve sits down with sisters Heather and Jenn, two Denver Health Paramedics featured in the documentary Into the Unknown.The first half of this episode is about getting to know the sisters and the experiences that shaped them. Both were students at Columbine High School on April 20, 1999. Heather and Jenn provide a personal, raw, and powerful look back at that day and share how Columbine continues to play a role in their lives more than 25 years later.The conversation turns to EMS, their careers with Denver Health Paramedics, and how they became involved with Into the Unknown. They also share a few behind-the-scenes stories from filming and what it was like to let cameras into a world most people never get to see. We talk about wisdom teeth, mental health, and other fascinating topics. Into the Unknown does an exceptional job of taking viewers inside EMS, not just the calls, but the people behind the uniform. Heather and Jenn's story is an important part of that journey.For more about the documentary, check out Episode 331 of Medic2Medic, featuring Into the Unknown director and producer Tom Putnam and producer Dr. Baxter Larmon.Subscribe to Medic2Medic wherever you get your podcasts, and please share this episode.
