JLN Safety Re-Launches Monthly Fire Safety & Rescue Livestream: Critical Conversations

JLN Safety is proud to announce the re-launch of its popular livestream and podcast series, Critical Conversations - a free monthly broadcast focused on the most pressing topics in fire safety, emergency response, first responder mental health and industrial risk management.

Originally developed during the COVID-19 pandemic to support fire departments unable to conduct in-person training, the series began as a virtual training platform. What started as a lifeline for local departments has since evolved into a national platform for meaningful dialogue, featuring high-profile guests such as Bobby Halton, Chief John Salka, and representatives from Fire Department Coffee.

Now re-launched for 2025, Critical Conversations continues its mission of education and engagement, bringing together respected leaders from NFPA, OSHA, and fire service organizations across the country. Topics range from evolving safety standards and incident command to firefighter mental wellness and new trends in fire suppression technology.

The series is hosted by Nick Delia, JLN’s Municipal Director, a local fire chief, and a national instructor known for his advocacy in emergency responder wellness and safety leadership.

💬 “It’s not just about compliance. It’s about culture,” says Delia. “We want to bring real stories, real issues, and real solutions to the table.”

Critical Conversations airs monthly and is available free via livestream and podcast. Follow JLN Safety’s LinkedIn or visit safejln.com/conversations for the latest episodes.
