Captain Mike Gowland has been a New Orleans firefighter for almost 20 years. In 2008, The New Orleans Firefighters Foundation began producing a yearly calendar, "Fire Fighters Look Hot."

Thermal imagers are valuable tools that firefighters use to identify hot spots or detect people inside burning buildings. In this podcast, Mike shares some of his more memorable experiences as a firefighter. Listen here!
