Old Enough to Know Better
Wisdom earned. Sarcasm sharpened. And no topic too sacred.
From the front lines of disaster zones to the shadows of homeland security briefings, Old Enough to Know Better is not your average podcast. Hosted by longtime responder, threat analyst, author, and proud curmudgeon E.G. Weiss, this show dives headfirst into the world of emergency response, law enforcement, and national security with the unapologetic voice of someone who’s been there, done that, and probably wrote the field guide afterward.

RADIOS, RELATIONSHIPS AND OTHER THINGS THAT DON’T WORK
In this episode of Old Enough to Know Better, host E.G. Weiss rips into the never-ending comedy of errors known as emergency communications. From Texas responders still struggling to talk to each other in the middle of floods, to the nationwide failure of cross-training between agencies, Weiss blends sarcasm with bitter truth to expose why “interoperability” is more theory than practice. Along the way, he compares radios to relationships (spoiler: neither works if you don’t listen), shares stories from the IAI conference about EMTs redecorating crime scenes, and lays out a no-nonsense 30-day muscle memory plan for agencies who actually want to fix their comms problems. It’s blunt, it’s funny, and it’s the wake-up call nobody wanted but everybody needs.
