🚑 Lights, Sirens & Real Sh*t
🎙️ The podcast for the ones still showing up.
EMS is beautiful and brutal. It’s sweat, diesel fumes, and emotional damage — and we keep coming back for more.
Nobody prepares you for the burnout. Nobody tells you how to process your fifth dead body in a week, how to laugh through the darkness, or how to get some damn sleep after trying to save a kid.
This is where we talk about all of it.
✅ Burnout & mental health
✅ Black humor & survival tips
✅ Real calls & stories (HIPAA-safe, of course)
✅ Side hustles & exit strategies
✅ And everything you really think at 0630 when dispatch drops another call.
No sugarcoating. No BS. Just real talk for medics, EMTs, firefighters, and anyone who’s lived this life — or wants to know what it’s really like.
Follow along and ride the rig with us.

This Job Will Make You Laugh or Cry – The Funniest Calls I’ve Ever Run
Not every shift in EMS is chaos and heartbreak — sometimes, it’s downright hilarious. In this lighter episode, I share some of the funniest, most ridiculous calls I’ve ever been on, the awkward situations you can’t make up, and why EMS crews have the best (and darkest) sense of humor.
From strange patient requests to bizarre emergencies that left the whole crew laughing, this one’s proof that you can find humor in even the most unexpected places.
🎧 Lights, Sirens & Real Sht* is your unfiltered ride-along into real EMS stories — no sugarcoating, no PR polish, just the raw reality of the job.
