    Wow!! We made it one year. Thank you to all that have followed us on this journey!! On our anniversary special, we host none other than the man that gave us the green light and support to start our show, Sioux City Fire Chief Tom Everett. Chief tells stories of his time in the Navy and the path that eventually led him to SCFR. We ask him questions about his career and insights into the beginning of his tenure as fire chief. Chief Everett is currently the third longest serving chief in SCFR history. So give it a watch/listen and keep supporting what we hope is your favorite first responder based podcast.
