334. Blackbelt Firefighting - Jesse and Micah Horton

National Fire Radio Podcast Platform

Hortons and Hunt is made up of three Hortons, Jesse, Micah and their father Curtis along with their long time friend and mentor Bryon Hunt. Located in the Nevada area, they realized that realistic fire training was in strong demand. The creation of Hortons and Hunt Training Associates was to deliver specific, real world training focusing on the basics, getting away from the industry’s “whiz bang” new flavor of the day. A core belief in the true basics parallels the brothers’ love for rolling on mats. In jujitsu, the details matter - small things like hand placement, technique and mindset drive Jesse and Micah to perfect each movement so that they become a master of their craft. Both brothers challenge each other, pushing one another to better themselves daily. Part of their passion is to share their own experiences and knowledge on their podcast, the Undisclosed Agents Podcast which talks about the job with guests who bring their own unique story to their show. Their constant push to better themselves and the job is evident by their hard work and willingness to push boundaries. Like their search class titled “The Finest Hour”, these brothers along with their partners are working hard to ensure they match the phrase in each aspect of the job. Everyone should have their “Finest Hour”.
