ROLL CALL TV

A Comedy About Chaos. A Mission About Recovery.

Streaming PG-13 on YouTube | Produced by 16 Cent Productions

What do you get when budget cuts, burnout, and bad leadership merge fire, EMS, police, 911 dispatch, and military reserve into one department?

You get SCURD — the Southern Continental Unified Response Division — a fictitious, fully dysfunctional public safety agency that somehow manages to operate across four absurdly distant stations:

  • Station Zero – Marathon, FL
     

  • Station 6.5 – South Padre Island, TX
     

  • Station 7600 – San Luis Valley, CO
     

  • Station 4091 – Big Island, Hawaii
     

It’s a satire. It’s a resilience training tool. It’s a comedy about collapse, recovery, and what happens when we stop pretending we’re fine.

 

Think:

🚔 Reno 911

🔥 Tacoma FD

🦆 Duck Dynasty

🎤 The Telling Project

💣 All blended with a peer-led trauma reset system developed by people who’ve lived it.

🧠 BEHIND THE LAUGHS: A REAL MISSION

Roll Call TV is more than comedy — it’s resilience cinema. Every episode draws on real experiences of first responders, veterans, dispatchers, and trauma-exposed professionals.

At the center of it all is the CLIMB system:

Connect. Leverage. Interrupt. Move. Build.

A nervous system reset protocol developed for disaster response, recovery, and everyday survival — especially for those working in the fire, EMS, military, and law enforcement trenches.

 

🩺 SCURD’S SPECIAL OPS: THE CLIMB MEDICAL TEAM

 

While the department is satirical, its Special Operations arm is very real.

Meet the CLIMB Medical Team — a deployable unit trained to respond in real disaster zones.

Actually led by Challenger Point Practice, this team includes:

  • Certified Peer Supporters & Peer Specialists
     

  • Clinicians & Licensed Therapists
     

  • Functional Medicine Doctors & PTs
     

  • Somatic Reset Practitioners
     

  • Tactical & Nature-Based Trainers
     

  • Mobile Reset Tent Operators
     

Each CLIMB Medical Team operates from fully off-grid reset stations:

☀️ Solar powered

⚡ Diesel generator–backed

🏕 Equipped for mobile trauma recovery

📦 Stocked with drills, breathwork, sensory resets, medical support, and CLIMB protocols

While Roll Call TV focuses on the chaos, absurdity, and humanity of public safety, its core message is simple and vital:

We all need resilience training.

We just don’t talk about it — until now.

 

📡 SCURD IS SCALABLE. SO IS HEALING.

 

SCURD is a joke — but the model isn’t.

The traditional ways of debriefing, “defusing,” and silent suffering aren’t working.

The CLIMB system was designed to change that — and SCURD offers a visceral, visual way to bring it to life.

We believe departments everywhere should be equipped with CLIMB Medical Teams — not just for training, but for deployment, recovery, and regulation.

Because laughter isn’t always enough.

Roll Call TV is like a mullet— comedy in the front, trauma recovery in the back.

“Roll Call TV was never just a show. It’s a mission disguised as a meltdown — a blueprint for how we laugh, recover, and lead through trauma. TV and film are the most influential art forms on the planet. Just like Bruce Lee entered American cinema to reshape how the world saw Chinese culture, I’m stepping into this space to change how we see trauma — to make peer-led, body-first recovery the standard, not the exception.

 

We’re casting real first responders, veterans, and trauma-exposed professionals. We’re not pulling punches. This is resilience cinema — where satire meets science, comedy meets collapse, and the CLIMB system meets the screen.

 

It's a protocol in a punchline.

It’s therapy with turnout gear.

And I cannot wait to look you dead in the eye on camera and ask,

‘Are you SCURD?’”
