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!
Craig Hetherington, the President of PGI, joins the podcast to discuss the upcoming year. Craig unveils the complete lineup for the 2026 Convention Public Nights. Dan Muzzy also joins us to talk about seminars and the search for a new Seminar Chair for upcoming conventions.

Sky Wars season is officially underway. In this early-cycle conversation, we’re joined by Nathan Dexter, Jacob Pierce, and Chad Flanders, the three shooters selected for the Pro-Am competition, to talk about what it means to get the call and what’s already got them fired up.
This isn’t about predictions or pressure—yet. It’s about first reactions, excitement, expectations, and the mindset that comes with knowing your name is on the list. We dig into what they’re looking forward to most, how they’re approaching the opportunity, and why the Pro-Am matters long before the first shell ever leaves the tube.
A quick heads-up: we’re aware of some recording issues in the first segment. Stick with it—the conversation settles in, and the road to Sky Wars officially begins here.
