from Firefighter Nation Podcast Network’s · host firefighternationpodcastnetwork

During this episode of APS Radio, host Jim Burneka welcomes guest Julie Paidar. The two discuss the recent passage of the Honor Act. Paidar shares the significance of the legislation, which recognizes occupational deaths due to firefighter cancer as line-of-duty deaths. She also offers details about how to go about filing claims for Public Safety Officers Benefits (PSOBs).   Beyond policy, the two share personal journeys of resilience—from navigating injury and recovery to balancing family life with public service. Burneka opens up about his wellness initiatives, podcasting experiences, and the emotional significance of firefighter memorials, while Paidar reflects on honoring loved ones and the importance of community.    This podcast is brought to you by FirehouseFurniture.com. https://www.FirehouseFurniture.com
