About

Drones are everywhere – including the public safety community. Whether you work in law enforcement, the fire service, homeland security or disaster recovery, drones can be a real game-changer in the field. From clearing a traffic accident scene dramatically faster – reopening roads and getting the public moving again – or giving a fire chief the ability to determine the hot spots in a fire – or when a roof is about to collapse getting personnel out of harm’s way and saving lives, drones change the game. That’s what the Public Safety Drone Podcast is all about. Join experienced radio show host, journalist and Part 107 drone pilot Joe Wessels, along with fellow FAA drone pilots and co-hosts Woodlawn, Ohio Fire Chief Amos Johnson, Woodlawn Firefighter Katie Thielmeyer, Blue Ash, Ohio Police Lieutenant Steve Schueler and drone expert and popular YouTuber David Glenn – otherwise known as “KlooGee” – share their insights and expertise on the ever-changing and emerging unmanned aerial systems field – with a particular focus on how public safety utilizes drones to save money, save lives and keep costs down.
