On March 27, 2026, the FDNY and the FDNY Foundation released the latest FDNY Pro Podcast, Episode 124. In it, we talk with Josephine Smith, the first daughter of a fallen September 11th member- the first female legacy-to join the FDNY as a firefighter.
The FDNY Pro Podcast brings together professionals and subject matter experts in the fields of fire suppression, rescue, emergency medicine, and training, offering firsthand knowledge and experience to listeners, particularly with a focus on those in the first responder community. With support from the FDNY Foundation, the official nonprofit organization of the New York City Fire Department, the FDNY Pro Podcast was established in 2016.
