In this episode, hosts Scott Kuhlman and Chasity Owens catch up before diving into an interview with Kayla Theriot who is in Business Development for iGuide, a 3D camera solution company. Scott, teaching in San Diego while Chasity holds down the fort in Orange County, discusses how they're experimenting with remote recording to maintain their signature dynamic intro style. The hosts tease their excitement about iGuide's technology and its applications in fire investigation before jumping into the interview.
Kayla shares her journey from restoration to fire investigation, bringing a unique perspective having worked in multiple facets of the industry. As iGuide's first US hire, she explains how their 360-degree camera technology creates immersive virtual tours with precise measurements, floor plans, and customizable tags to document evidence. The standout features include the ability to download and own your data without subscription fees, lightning-fast 15-minute AI-drafted floor plans for properties under 4,000 square feet, and professionally drafted plans within 24 hours for larger properties.
The conversation sparks numerous ideas for applying iGuide in fire investigation, including creating training materials, documenting wildland fires, developing heat vector analysis tools, and enabling students to practice evidence identification through virtual scene examinations. The hosts and Kayla brainstorm innovative applications while highlighting the cost efficiency of the system—only $2,500 for the camera with no mandatory subscription fees and pay-per-project processing starting at just $5 for smaller projects.
The episode wraps with their "Can You Use It in a Sentence" segment introducing the term "plume" with a promise to cover "ceiling jet" in the next episode, continuing their educational series on fire terminology. Though not currently sponsored by iGuide, the hosts hint at potential future partnership while emphasizing they only endorse products they genuinely believe in.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
