NEW Music Heard Between Talk Shows! We'll Be Your Favorite!

Headlined Show, Responder Resilience December 14, 2022

In this episode, David speaks with Chief Bobby Halton, editor-in-chief of Fire Engineering magazine and education director of FDIC.  Chief Halton talks about the virtue and importance of resilience in the fire service, and discusses the personalities of firefighters that sets them apart as leaders. We discuss what the privilege of being an American firefighter means, and how when it comes to resiliency, most firefighters celebrate the success of their peers.

Chief Halton references several powerful books in our conversation for those who want to go deeper into these topics. In addition, we cover awareness and prevention of cancer in the fire service, and how this is probably the greatest recruiting time in the history of the fire service and other professions.

Dare To Dream Guest, WILLIAM HENRY February 03, 2022
Author, investigative mythologist, art historian, and TV presenter.

My guest is William Henry who is an investigative mythologist, art historian and expert guide to ancient sites. He is the co-star and consulting producer of Ancient Aliens on the History Channel and hosts two series on Gaia TV. William brings to life ancient wisdom stories through art and historic texts, while he teaches the secrets of the soul from the ancient cultures, and through time and space. He leads Sacred Adventure Travels to Ancient sites in Egypt and other countries. 

William Henry is an investigative mythologist, author, radio talk show host, seeker and teacher. In 2007 he is celebrating his 10th anniversary as a self-published author of 14 books and numerous DVD presentations.

He has specialized in synthesizing myth and cutting edge modern science to reveal a startling but undeniable pattern of fact – that throughout history and across widely diverse cultures, there is an absolutely seamless tradition of the existence of gates to the stars, which have been preserved in the art and myths of each era and place. Beings that came from the light of the vastness of the Milky Way, and beyond, did so through these gateways… and left the secrets of a Way to the Stars for us to discover.

Loss of the secrets of this gate has brought great challenges to humanity. Rebuilding the gate is a reachable goal and will transform us into the more advanced beings we seek to become… and already are within us.

Today, physicists call these gates called stargates or wormholes. These cosmic gateways theoretically link regions of the universe millions of light years apart and allow nearly instantaneous communication between these regions.
