    Great podcast
    I am a firefighter in the Unites States and I have a passion for fire behavior and fire dynamics. This is an outstanding podcast! I enjoy listening to you and your guests. I have learned a lot about fire and and how engineers are working to make buildings safer. We need more collaboration between fire engineers and fire fighters, and you are helping to do that through your show. Keep up the great work! Chad Moe
