Listen "349. "Bless Your Heart" - Joey Petruccelli"
Episode Synopsis
"Bless your heart" is a southern way of saying so many things in one quick phrase. Joey Petruccelli, a transplant from NJ to Richmond,VA, loves being an inner city fireman. His NJ charm sometimes gets in the way of his drive and hustle but he doesnt apologize for who he is. Like the southerns, "bless your heart" is a kinder, gentler way than the rough and tough jersey. Joey knows this and it's his style of southern charm. A true love of the job and a student who takes any opportunity to learn, he holds the job in the highest regard an fiercely protects the core principles of the fire service. "Crawl, walk, run" is Joey's belief when it comes to training. Working with new recruits, he knows the value of teaching the right way - no short cuts and hard work and dedication. Joey approach is in your face and real - he acknowledges this and will not shy away from telling you the way it is which is kind of refreshing these days. This blue collar, dirty and tough job needs to be protected by those that are all in. Joey Petruccelli is all in.
