In Part 3 – “Bridging the Gap: Community, Courage & the Two-In, Two-Out Movement,” Rico and retired firefighter Anthony Crane close out this powerful three-part series with one of the most honest, emotional, and eye-opening conversations yet. This final chapter is all about what happens after the flames are out — the mental load, the community responsibility, and the unspoken expectations first responders carry long after everyone else goes home. In this episode, Anthony and Rico dive into:     •    Why “last call” shouldn’t only mean a funeral bell     •    How communities can actually support their firefighters, officers, EMS, and dispatchers     •    Why first responders don’t want validation — they want help, understanding, and real support     •    The truth about burnout, PTSD, and the weight responders bring home to their families     •    Why civilians learning CPR, AED, and basic first aid could save lives and save responders     •    How Anthony uses photography, advocacy, and the “Two In, Two Out” mindset to push mental health forward     •    The upcoming first responder vendor event and the major project in the works for the William H. “Bill” Butler Jr. Foundation This episode is raw, funny, heartbreaking, and hopeful — a reminder that it takes all of us to hold this line together. ⚠️ Content note: This episode includes honest discussion about trauma and suicidal ideation.
