Send us Fan Mail When Pete was here the first time, he mentioned that his most fun times were being a Sergeant! When he was promoted, he spent some time in Patrol but was quickly selected to lead a squad of Undercover Officers in the Prescott Area Narcotics Trafficking TaskForce. Upon leaving the Taskforce, after 5 years, he spent a short time in Investigations before being promoted to Lieutenant! I'm glad he's back, I can't wait for you all to hear about the rest of his career!!!! Come...

Send us Fan Mail Ever consider life as a Federal agent? Ever wonder how people decide on a career in Federal Service? Then this is your episode. Brian reached out to see if I would be willing to come speak to one of his classes at the University. We had lunch and I invited him to be a guest on the show to not only discuss his 28 year career as an IRS Federal Special Agent, but also his work at the University and his work with the Arizona 100 Club. I enjoyed learning how a degree in accounting...

Send us Fan Mail Today, we're taking a look at the career and experiences of John McGrath, retired Pima County Detective Sergeant. He spent more than two decades with Pima County, but we crossed paths when he was leading the FIST team. Because there's too many stories to tell, John will be back in the next couple weeks, but for now enjoy this one. His gritty New York accent helps carry the energy required for catching bad guys! Buckle up, welcome our newest Member!!! Come see me on Facebook a...

Send us Fan Mail Pete reached out to me recently and asked if I'd have him on the show to discuss his 21 year career in the Town of Prescott. In this episode, we only made it to about the 10 year mark, so he's coming back to finish his tales. I'm glad he reached out, I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know him and his stories were fantastic! Let's just say, we sat here for several hours and the time just flew by. I'll just say, that seems to be the trademark of a great conversation. You be the j...

Send us Fan Mail Initially this entire podcast was going to be about cops, reminiscing about the glory days and the excitement this career holds for us along the way. Over time, especially recent months, it has taken on a deeper meaning for me because several of our Squad members have passed away. I'm honored and grateful to have had the opportunity to sit down with them for a few hours and let them recount their tales, in their own words and on their terms. Men and women have come on here an...

Send us Fan Mail Here's another "Best of" and the guy who helped me get this show off the ground! Retired Fairfax County Detective Gary Youngling! Published author, in retirement he worked training the National Police Force in Haiti, trained security personnel for the '96 Olympic Games in Atlanta and he deployed as a civilian contractor to the Middle East! He's had quite the life and continues to write and travel. If you haven't caught it already, take a listen because he had quite the career...

Send us Fan Mail Ben agreed to be on the show before I realized he was NOT retired! At the time, he was a Sergeant, but in true Ben Frie fashion he just didn't care. He's a "wordsmith," he's never had much of a filter and you can always count on Ben to just say what's on his mind. It made working the downtown district with him very interesting to say the least! But, as you'll hear in this "Best Of" episode is that Ben started out his working life as a Marine, then joined the City of Tucson wh...

Send us Fan Mail Maybe it's the summertime heat? Vacation schedules? I'm still on the hunt for new victims to be on the show... If you know someone retired from Law Enforcement, dispatch, firefighting, EMT, doctor, nurse, or the military who is in Arizona or is AZ adjacent, willing to travel and has a few good stories to share...send them my way! With the exception of a few die hard fans, I don't honestly believe everyone listens to every single episode I release!!! There has been a lot...

Send us Fan Mail Max and I worked in Special Investigations from 2001-2002. Our squad did the undercover deals and his squad did the Detective work on the prosecution of our cases. He's a genuine nice guy so, if you check out his pictures on FB or Instagram it's kind of hard to believe he did some UC work himself throughout his career. Take a listen, I think you're going to enjoy getting to know Max. He now holds the record for the longest travel to be on the show...he came from Florida to vi...

Send us Fan Mail As I stated before, I've been traveling quite a bit for work, so I tried to grab some of the more popular episodes, craziest characters, and entertaining story tellers. If you have listened to this podcast for any length of time, you know there is no bigger "character" than Joe Knipp. This here is his first of many interviews. I appreciate his company, his sense of humor and the "Plethora" (he'll love that I used that word) of stories he collected over the many years. Come ...
