Andy and Randy are twin brothers. While they may have a lot in common, Andy and Randy are complete opposites when it comes to emergency preparedness. Andy lives his life on the wild side, and he’s never prepared for anything! Luckily for Andy, Randy is Red Cross Ready and he’s sharing his tips with Andy and you!
 
On today’s episode of “The Adventures of Andy and Randy,” the brothers learn a lesson in smoke detector safety, in honor of National Fire Prevention Week.
 
According to the National Fire Protection Agency, a home fire breaks out every 82 seconds. Fires can cause irreparable damage to homes and businesses displacing families and employees. This October 9 -15 the Red Cross is helping families and businesses learn how to protect themselves and others from fires in observance of National Fire Prevention Week. Learn how to prevent, prepare for and respond to fires with the Red Cross Fire Prevention & Safety Checklist.

Although he loves food, Andy hasn't quite yet mastered the art of cooking it. Often, Andy’s lunch endeavors go up in smoke. Disclaimer: Although it looks like Andy is wearing a woman's summer shirt, it is actually his favorite cooking apron.
