I don’t even tell people I’m a fire chief — I say I’m a firefighter because I still love those calls, man."For some first responders, the most memorable story doesn’t stem from a single call. Instead, that story is collected page by page from the journey itself. It’s the journey of introspection and prioritization, of purpose and community – discoveries that aren’t always revealed in instant but are unearthed during events experienced and decisions made over a decades-long career in public service.Join former firefighter/paramedic and host Phil Klein as he interviews friend and former co-worker, Chief Chuck who, just 22 months before retiring from an accomplished career of more than 30 years, was presented with an unexpected yet life-changing opportunity. Chuck reflects on some of the lessons he learned along the way and, most importantly, how his faith and the support of those he worked with and served compelled him to tackle his greatest challenge yet.   Enjoying Stories From the Road?
