Review of If You Can't Take the Heat

This sound-rich feature has a lot of potential, but unfortunately it tries to do too much. The set-up promises a story about the culinary delights of the firehouse, and the first few minutes of the story focus on food. But then it devolves into a "newsier" examination of changes in the firefighting industry (i.e. decreased number of calls, different kinds of calls, changes in technology). This is a completely different story and only muddies the stew.
