In this bonus episode of Black Cloud Society, we reflect on the
tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk and what his life... and
death...teach us about the cost of conviction. Charlie died
practicing the freedoms that define America: freedom of speech
and freedom of religion. He stood boldly for what he believed,
even in the face of disagreement, and he welcomed dialogue as
part of that pursuit of truth.
This episode challenges us to live with the same courage ...to be
bold in our beliefs, unafraid to speak truth, and yet willing to
find common ground with those who see the world differently. What
does it mean to hold the line in our faith, our convictions, and
our practices? And how can we honor Charlie’s example by doing
the same in our own lives?

Is Mobile Integrated Healthcare (MIH) the next evolution of EMS —
or just a well-funded illusion? In this episode of The Black
Cloud Society, we dive deep into the controversial world of
community paramedicine. With promises of reduced ER visits,
improved patient outcomes, and expanded roles for medics, MIH has
made waves across the country. But not everyone’s convinced.
We sit down with voices from both sides of the aisle to ask the
hard questions: Is MIH solving real problems, or just creating
new ones? Is this model empowering providers — or stretching them
too thin?
Strap in for a brutally honest conversation about the future of
EMS, the politics behind the funding, and whether MIH is truly
here to stay… or just another industry pivot we didn’t ask for.

In Part 2 of our “5 Things” series, we answer the question that
closed the last episode: Would I do it all over again? The
answer—Yes… but with better tools, stronger boundaries, and a
whole different mindset.
In this follow-up, we move from reflection to action, laying out
the real-life lessons, strategies, and mental gear we wish we’d
packed from day one. From emotional survival to burnout
boundaries and building your mental go-bag—this episode is about
showing up smarter, not just tougher.
Whether you’re brand new to the field or decades deep in the
black cloud, this one’s for you.
No regrets. Just better reps.

Join us as this week as we peel back the layers to reveal the
hidden challenges and realities that EMS professionals face every
day surrounding the intricacies of EMS culture.
In this episode, we talk with a returning guest and have a very
candid discussion about the problems with EMS leadership, EMS
education, and toxic employees, to uncover the aspects of EMS
culture that are rarely discussed openly. These are the stories
and experiences that don’t always make it into the training
manuals or the heroic depictions of emergency responders.
This episode offers a rare glimpse into the complex and
multifaceted world of EMS culture, shining a light on the
realities that are often kept in the shadows. Whether you're an
EMS professional, a healthcare worker, or simply interested in
the inside scoop of emergency services, this episode provides
crucial insights, a few rabbit trail tangents, and even includes
typing monkeys!!
Join us for a candid conversation about the true nature
of EMS culture. Tune in on your favorite podcast

Über diesen Podcast
Black Cloud Society was born out of a necessity to fill a gap in
ems podcasts. A gap that typically avoids the discussion of EMS
culture and its need to change. While EMS Podcasts that cover
clinical and educational topics are much needed, Black Cloud
Society is a place where listeners can take a different point of
view. A place where listeners can come and reflect on themselves,
their peers, and their agencies; and hopefully be inspired to
evolve. Not just evolve in their own mindset or practice, but to
evolve the very Black Cloud that shades the culture of EMS.
