Episode 8 - Business Continuity

This is one of my favorite podcasts. Jeff connects with great influencers and subject matter experts in the field to delve into concepts that are in the minds of EM professionals and all who have preparedness roles in their industry. The fact that Jeff himself is also a subject matter expert serves to provide consistency and a great knowledge base for the podcast. Highly recommend!

Great Podcast for EM professionals

This is a solidly produced podcast with great guests covering topics relevant to various areas of emergency management and homeland security.  There are so many areas of public policy, law, and regulation that impact what we do and how we do it. This is a fresh new podcast you should try. There are few good podcasts on EM/HS, and this is one of them!

Interesting and Insightful

Episode 3 - Emergency Managers and the many Constituents they Serve

From block parties in San Francisco to building ambulance services in the Dominican Republic and Tanzania, the building of resilience only works with local ownership.

Episode 4 - All Resilience is Local

In Episode 6 we talk to a former staffer for the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, and current Policy Associate for the Blue Ribbon Study Panel on Biodefense (@BiodefenseStudy), Robert Bradley. We talk about various disaster relief programs, what they do, and how they are legislated. This interview was recorded before the landfall of Hurricane Harvey, but may be even more relevant now with many of the programs talked about on the agenda as Congress comes back in session. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of those affected and those responding.  Please consider donating to a worthy charity that is supporting the response!

Episode 6 - Legislating Relief

In Episode 5, we get out of domestic disaster response and take a deep dive into the causes, effects and structures for managing international disasters. Dr. Uzma Alam (@UzmaAlam3) joins us to talk about her experience responding to disasters like the Ebola crisis, and how geopolitics can be its own force of nature in creating international disasters. International journalist Antony Loewenstein (@AntLoewenstein) then joins us as we talk about his book, and soon to be documentary, Disaster Capitalism, and how there is often more incentive for managing a crisis rather than resolving it. We also talk about the role of international institutions, nation-state, for-profit and non-profit actors as well as the communities themselves.
