Description

Hosted by Australian firefighters Josh Alpen and Jason Anderson, Behind the Badge is a podcast about life in service — beyond the uniform, beyond the job, and beyond what most people see. While the conversations are grounded in frontline experience, the themes are universal — pressure, identity, adversity, and growth. Whether you’re in the job or not, the goal is the same: To provide honest perspectives and real-world insights that help people perform better, think clearer, and navigate challenges more effectively — both on and off the job.
