We have a confession to make. We have a crush on the Owensboro Fire Department. Haha! Have you all seen their social media lately? They are SLAYING IT.

They've even jumped on TikTok to hopefully reach a younger audience with fire safety tips.

People Magazine even gave them a shout-out for their main character energy. They deserve ALL THE LOVE. Check out this article they were featured in!

I LOVE that these guys are getting a chance to spread awareness in a new way AND have fun while doing it. They deserve to shake off the stresses of the job, laugh, cut up, and promote department programs or events like their upcoming Open House. While you watch this next video, I will warn you, you may feel a little sweat form on your brow...

Whew wee! Nobody heats things up like a fireman!!! Jackson Woodard and Cory Gant, AKA Action Figure Man, SHOWED OFF their dance moves in their most recent installment. They've got everybody swooning! In a VERY RESPECTFUL WAY, of course. The comment section is pretty great there.

They've gotten so popular that the Chief himself is having paparazzi problems!

Recruiting is a very important matter, and who wouldn't want to work with this great group of humans? They don't even care if you were born in the 1900s. Although I can't help but feel a type of way about this one, it is pretty darn funny!

We always love it when they join us in the studio for the St. Jude Radiothon. Not only are they compassionate and brave, but they are also freaking hilarious. Which we are all getting a bigger taste of now, thank goodness! They train hard and work hard, and if they want to play hard, I am all for it. We get to reap the benefits with videos that keep us informed and laughing along with them. Give them a follow on whatever social media you use and show them lots of love!

Thanks, OFD, for all you do! We love y'all!
