Kansas City Fire Chief to resign. No the other one.

Published: April 26, 2023, 5 p.m.

For those of you still in the 3rd grade, let it be known that there are 2 Kansas Cities. Not, like you know, 2 cities in Kansas, but 2 metropolitan hubs named Kansas City. And they are of course easily distinguishable by the *checks notes* 6 minute drive across the Kansas river from each other. *tosses papers*

It takes your hosts 11 minutes just to get to a decent freeway to get anywhere.

Well, this time news breaks from Kansas City Kansas about the resignation of Fire Chief Michael Callahan who has been battling issues from staffing to salary to working conditions and not exactly making friends at the union hall. The curious part about his resignation is that it comes not amidst charges of corruption, wrong doing or incompetence, but the enforcement of a residency requirement.\xa0

In addition to those shenanigans, Justin is in Indianapolis for FDIC and has some sweet swag for our listeners!

This week we discuss:

  • Why Kansas City can't take a break and let someone else in the news
  • How you need to be careful what rules you demand be enforced
  • Why you should find out if someone at the table is teaching at the conference you're dissing
  • How part of MC's famed beard is gone
