Weekly Scrap #369 – Gary Lane: Shopping Carts and Training

I am excited to have Gary Lane join me once again on the Scrap for a conversation that could go in a lot of different directions.Gary has decades in the fire service, has been a state fire instructor since 2008, and is a member of the Brothers In Battle training cadre. He brings a lot of experience to the table, along with practical insight into where we are getting it right and where we could be doing it better.We dig into hit-or-miss leadership and the toll it can take on morale, informal training and drills for busy departments, the lack of quality live fire training, and passion vs. competence.But this is The Weekly Scrap, so you guys know how this works. The live audience and your big beautiful questions have a way of taking the conversation in directions we never planned. Episode 369 is made possible by our incredible sponsors:Snap-tite HoseIdentiFire Safety — Use code VIGILANCE for 10% off your order.UL Research Institutes' Fire Safety Research Institute (FSRI) — Visit the dedicated page created specifically for Weekly Scrap listeners, giving you access to some of the best firefighter research and training resources available at fsri.org/weeklyscrap.
