It's been a long summer, but now it's time to get back at it!

Cody, Eric and Tyler return to discuss what went down this summer, share some 9/11 memories, and even get a little comical with some stories in the news.

Honestly, we enjoy doing these types of conversations. Usually it's pretty random and this episode is no different. So sit back, grab a beer, and join in on the conversation!

John Moon is a retired Paramedic who worked for Freedom House Ambulance Service. Ran out of Hill District in Pittsburg Pennsylvania, this team of amazing black paramedics created EMS how we know it today. From the designs of the interior and exterior of the ambulance, to performing the first out-of-hospital intubation and everything in between.

John Moon learned from two of the best educators and physicians; Dr. Peter Safar who was an Austrian Anesthesiologist who basically invested CPR. Also Dr. Nancy Caroline who you may know as the author of several text books that we still use today. Because of these two, as well as the amazing heroes from Freedom House Ambulance Service, EMS is able to provide top of the line medical service today, not only in the United States, but around the world as well.

John shares the story of Freedom House, the story that we all should have been taught in EMT and Paramedic School. He also gives us a look at life growing up and how he found his way into the medical field during a time of racism and segregation. John's mission is also our mission; to share this story so that all EMTs and Paramedics around the world understand where EMS came from, and why it's important to remember these brave souls whenever we respond to an emergency. It's because of them, our loved ones can receive the best treatment possible before stepping foot into the Emergency Room.
