On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean have got each other’s backs as we face down the meanest, baddest wildfires out there. We watched the 2017 film from Joseph Kosinski, Only the Brave.
SPOILER WARNING: If you’re not aware of the Granite Mountain Hotshots, the crew of wildfire fighters from Arizona, then do yourself a favor and watch this film before reading about them or listening to this podcast.
For those who have seen this film or know their inspirational story, then we’re on the same page. A more courageous bunch of firefighting professionals could not be found. The same goes for any person out there battling those devastating fires every year.
Living so close to an area prone to igniting, I’m more indebted to their work than I could ever say. They deserve every ounce of respect a person can give them, and I’m giving them my all.
Enjoy this excellent film and, if I do say so myself, episode of the podcast.
