The Relentless Rejects podcast, hosted by Preston Lyons, dives into the tough conversations the fire service needs to address: leadership, culture, accountability, and the personal battles we face behind the scenes. We expose what’s not working, share real stories from the field, and bring forward-thinking solutions to help firefighters lead with purpose and leave the job better than they found it.The principle of the Relentless Rejects is to be honorable in everything we do. You will face adversity for challenging mediocrity and the status quo. You will be questioned by your bosses and judged by your peers. But if your actions are rooted in making the fire service better, demanding more of those who serve, and striving for a culture that people want to be a part of, then Embrace the Target. The Rejects are Forged Through Adversity.
