In this episode of Crazy Real, Bugge & Zogg sit down with Syracuse Fire Department Lieutenant David Corbett and retired Syracuse Fire Department lieutenant Auggie Matt for a candid, funny, and eye-opening conversation about life in the fire service. With Jenn "Bugge"'s husband Todd serving in the Syracuse Fire Department, this episode carries an especially personal connection and offers a real look at what it means to live the life of a firefighter.

From getting hired and facing first fires to the brotherhood of the firehouse, dark humor, EMS calls, and the emotional weight that comes with the job, David and Auggie share powerful stories and honest insight from years in the field. They also talk about firehouse culture, teamwork, family support, and the experiences that stay with firefighters long after the call ends.

It’s heartfelt, hilarious, and deeply respectful of the people who dedicate their lives to showing up when others need them most.

This week on Bugge & Zogg, Jenn and Marissa are joined by Jenn’s cousin, Mark Shattuck, for a hilarious and honest conversation about parenting, family dynamics, and growing up with a little more grit.

Mark also shares some personal stories about his mom, family life, and why the people who tell it to you straight are sometimes the ones who love you the most. It’s funny, chaotic, heartfelt, and exactly the kind of family conversation you can only have on Bugge & Zogg.
