About This Podcast

Hosted by The Rescue Company 1, As The Rotor Turns is a weekly podcast that covers everything related to EMS and the life of First Responders.

Your main host and CEO of The Rescue Company 1, is none other than "The" Carlos Tavarez. Joining Carlos is his wife and ER Nurse Trish with her colorful hair and shining personality. Coming in with his amazing scenario giving talent is Jason, also known as "The Hippo" who is an active Firefighter/Paramedic.
