"The Rural Difference"

Despite a rocky start, we dive into what it really takes to serve on a rural volunteer fire department — where long drives, limited resources, and tight-knit communities shape every call. From juggling day jobs to responding with whoever can make it, this episode highlights the grit, adaptability, and passion that keep small-town crews running when seconds matter and backup isn’t guaranteed.

It's raw, unfiltered, and grounded in the reality of rural service — not for glory, but for neighbors.
