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!
This week, Donnie and David dive into their thoughts on last week’s PyroJam announcement. They also discuss the SkyWars 2026 ProAm competitors and the elite lineup for the upcoming event.

A podcast made by pyros, for pyros. We’ll discuss fireworks best practices, safety, history, and much more!
In this episode of Pyro Talk, we take an honest look at the rules we’re taught, the best practices we preach, and the safety standards we quietly let slide once show day pressure kicks in.
From hazard mitigation shortcuts to “it’ll be fine” decisions, we break down the big rules everyone knows—and why they’re the first ones to get bent when timelines get tight, crews get tired, and experience starts replacing procedure.
This isn’t about calling people out. It’s about calling ourselves in.
We talk through common safety compromises, how small deviations stack into real risk, and why best practices only matter if we actually follow them. If you’ve ever said “just this once,” this episode is for you.
Because in fireworks, the rules we break don’t usually bite right away—but they always remember.
