Pyro Podcast
The sparks are flying for this illuminating podcast that pulls back the curtain on the explosive fireworks industry. From fuses to firepower, the show lights up the behind-the-scenes world of pyrotechnics. The Pyro Unleashed Podcast is a podcast about the people behind fireworks. We interview importers, manufacturers, retailers, scripters, and industry professionals. This podcast is for anyone who loves fireworks, so join us to unleash your inner pyro!
Brandon Schmidt, also known as @Firecat8 from YouTube, joins Donnie and David to talk about Brandon's journey in pyro. As with most pyro's, he started as a kid and as he got older the passion grew. When he started attending demo's he realized there was a market for videos of cakes. That was the birth of Firecat8.
Brandon also shares more about his camera setup and some tips for those that are new or curious about getting started.

In this episode of Pyro Talk, Jason sits down with Peter Rogoz to dive into the world of scripting and firing a live band pyromusical at PGI. Peter shares the behind-the-scenes challenges of bringing music and fireworks together in real time — including what it takes to script to a live performance instead of a recording. He also shares stories about the chaos of show day, the technical hurdles to get to the final product, and Peter’s unexpected adventures of getting his car stuck…twice. Plus, they talk about the magic behind the “Chicago Lights” pyromusical and what makes these shows unforgettable. If you love fireworks, live music, and a good laugh, this is one you won’t want to miss!
