Wonderful show! I love hearing stories of my Dad😊🙏🚒💖
You come from good stock!
After 35 years in he FD one of my favorite stories is meeting this Icon! I was a USAF firefighter, with a specialty in Rescue, taking Army Combat Skills Training at Ft. Carson, CO in early 2006. We went to a friend’s house in CO Springs to do laundry and enjoy a few hours away from the Army. We walk in the hose and Kevin Shea was in the kitchen with his wife. I was awestruck but he was down to Earth and just as nice & humble as he could be. It is one of the highlights of my career. Great interview!
I just watched it for the first time since we were live...what a humble humble man ...incredible.. Lou
I'm the new guy on the chat. Everbody who's been involved with the fire sewrvice (for the last 30 yrs. or more) are aware of Lt. Shea and his accomplishments. A real gentleman and a class act. God Bless LT and all your contributions to the job!
This podcast is like meeting a childhood hero the rope rescue alone was amazing along with his other grabs and actions
A kind and Humble Stud of a Fire Fighter.
I met Kevin at medal day 1994,I had the honor of receiving a medal along with Kevin that day,class act and super nice guy,keep up the good work with the podcasts,a lot of great memories!
As a kid I remember watching an episode of Firehouse with Mr. Shea and Rescue 1. I can't even count the number of times I rewatched it, but being able to watch the podcast tonight was like meeting a childhood hero of mine. Awesome show like always Kev, Pete, and Lou, and thank you Mr. Shea for sharing your story with us.
That's a great show too
Do you know how to find it?
Great show, Kevin Shea is a fireman’s fireman!!! I still remember that rope rescue in Manhattan. Rescue 911 aired the call. I was and still am in awe of Rescue One and its crew. God Bless them all!
Lt. I was 19 years old back in 91 when I was confused about what career I should pursue. 2 things happened around that time that led me to taking the FD exam, and became a 40 year beloved career of mine. 1 the Backdraft movie came out and I was very interested in the job, then your rescue was all over every media channel in the country. Watching you work put me over the edge. I took the test and got hired. I’m still active today stretching & loving it! Thanks for sharing your story with us. You really were & are an inspiration.
I am exceptionally happy that Kevin decided to come on the show. Wire to wire, the best episode to date. No slight to the other guys, they've all great.
I wish I’d listened to my father. He wanted me to become a FDNY member. I chose to work with him in Holyoke MA. Listening to you guys, he was right! The Brotherhood is alive and well in the FDNY. My experience in Holyoke was horrible. The guys just didn’t love the job! BTW, I had 3 years on the job when I saw Kevin and Pat make that rescue. They were instant role models for me. I wish my career had been like Dennis Smith wrote about in Engine 82. However, I still am proud of my time serving with my Dad and still LOVE the fire service. Thank you Kevin for being such an inspiration
A class act and true professional what a gentleman
Kevin Shea was on the 1991 Rescue 1 special with John Walsh
Easily one of the best episodes of the entire series. Kevin Shea you are a legend
Lt. Shea is truly a humble leader. He held court for the entire podcast. Great job guys!
Glad I'm not the only one that's got to a fire and forgotten their helmet! 🤣
Kevin’s famous rope rescue was shown in my academy class during ropes & knots training in the early 90’s. I have watched this interview more than once. I am amazed that after all Kevin has been through he is so positive and up beat. What a humble man. I think it’s great that he’s still sharing his knowledge with other brothers. We used to have FDNY guys come to our firehouse here and there for training on drill night. They are all a wealth of knowledge and great to learn from. Stay well Kevin and try to enjoy retirement! Thank you for sharing your amazing story with all of us.
Our station (#2) firefighters recently went back to the basics in training....catching hydrants, stretching attack lines in multi-story structures. So refreshing to hear emphasis placed on going back to the basics of firefighting! I was shocked to hear a few days ago when talking to new probationary firefighters of all the operations/skills that they no longer teach or cover in collegiate fire academies. Actually alarming!
Humble highly intelligent experienced full of wisdom firefighter! I love "throwing the can...that's where I was" :)=)
Hey guys !!! One of my favorite shows. Ya can't go wrong with good people, and I don't know many that could pull it off like Kevin shea. Such a humble man with the life history he has. I was pissed when I couldn't watch it originally. Glad I could watch it today. Stay safe, stay low and go guys !!!! I love you guys !! And I ain't no punk !!😆👍
Watch Boston stretch on calls of smoke in, or coming from, a bldg.. Better to stretch and NOT need it than to walk in empty-handed and then realize that you DO need it. Complacency will kill people.
One of the top podcast! Absolutey fastastic! Thank you Lt. Kevin Shea! I could keep going for hours! Great show!
Great show Guys!! I was and still am in a Suffolk department and we had training at the fire training academy and it was Lt Shea ‘s 1st night and he was with us. He was and still is a very humble man , everyone that night new of kevin and taking back by how down to earth he was . Shaking his hand that night and telling him thank you for tonight was one of my greatest moments of my life. A true gentleman. And thank you Lou, Kevin , Pete truly love your show.. And one more thing I had the pleasure of meeting Tommy Norton Burke . Another great guy I probably sat and talked to him for 30 to 45 mins. And just like Lt Shea a very humble and kind man .. be safe be well .. stay low and go🤙🤙
Hi guys happy new year. You were talking about engine 239 which was a single house in the day of the original quarters of the Brooklyn fire department. Now they are co chartered with ladder 114 which was on 5th Avenue in Brooklyn also a single house. Wow how times have changed. Great job on the career of lt. Kevin shea. Good memories of a great firefighter who devoted his life to the protection and service to the citizens of new York. God bless you
Awesome show! 🚨
I remember seeing that video of the roof rope rescue a while ago. Love the show I work for FDNY EMS and listen to the show on my commute to and from!!
Incredible verbalization of being observant and picking up what the incident is telling you!
GREAT show! The last couple of episodes have been awesome.
God bless paddy brown.
One of the best shows so far! Awesome stories and rescues!
This man is so humble so great … had the opportunity to meet him at rescue 1 when I was a kid great show guys I know I’m late but I’m a new subscriber
I met and spoke for a long while with Kevin, my God is he a humble and smart man. I've done a few hard glacier rescues and he was a great guy to speak through how it all feels and why and what we are doing. I'd share a beer again with him anyday.
Awesome show tonight Brothers 2 1/2 hours just flew by . Really enjoyed it . See you guys Monday . BK
Great show again.
Great show as always, what humble and all around amazing human being. God bless all you gentleman!
You guys are recording history. Love it!
Great show guys one of the best you’ve done. Already looking forward to next weeks
Probably one of my favorite episodes so far, keep it up!
Note: First Due Engine 54 walked up stairs.2nd Due Engine 65 took elevator .
He got on in 84 and the bombing pretty much ended his ride in 93? He did more in 9 years than most do in 30. Unreal.
A true legend.
he is the sweetest guy
What a great guy!
If anyone wanna watch a great video look up fire recue special on youtube fdny rescue when kevin shea was young great ff
Excellent content boys keep up the good work .
Great show gents, now that I know that Kevin is located in Montana I want to reach out to him as I’m getting close to that retirement age and Montana is one of the places I’m looking to go. As always, great job with the podcast Brothers!
Lt Fox SQ 1 got the Gordon Bennett for this.
EPIC!! BEST EP ever!!
Second weekly podcast- Hunting & Fishing!
He's a good jake.
Great mustache Kevin
Love the idea of bringing the fire house to us, but please change it to one on one interviews. Way too many people talking over top of each other.
There was nothing like the smell of old firehouses!!! Right breathing diesel fuel washing our hands cleaning tools in benzene!!!
We've 2 hrs of tips!!!
Only live training or web-based training, too?
What kind of recurves are those Kevin?
Get a hunt n fish club going !!!
Kept calling him O'Shea. Wtf
