Episode 2 "Just be Nice"

Join Colton as he sits down with Matt Elliott, Vice President of Hendersonville Firefighters Local 3460, for a candid conversation about what their local is up against—from political roadblocks to misinformation campaigns—and what it really takes to stand up for your department.

They talk through the challenges firefighters face when elected officials ignore their voices, the importance of transparency, and how members can effectively engage with their local boards and city leadership. This episode isn’t just about Hendersonville—it’s about every firefighter who’s ever felt silenced, pushed aside, or punished for speaking the truth.

If you care about the future of the fire service, this is one you don’t want to miss.
