The Story Of The DOJ And The Big, Bad, LMPD

Still battling RSV and a whole list of other issues, I am back in the studio to rant about taxes, bad ass kids, Tucker Carlson's release of unseen J6 video footage and the DOJ's report into the Louisville Metro Police Department.

POG’s (People Other Than Grunts) Need Heroes Too: Interview With Author Jarrod L. Taylor

In this episode, I sit down and chat with Author Jarrod Taylor who recently published his first book "No Shit Here I Am: A Soldier's Stories of Life During And After the War on Terror". Jarrod, just like me, served in the 10th Mountain Division. His book is an honest and eye opening depiction of what life is like on the ground for troops on the frontline. He catches the essences of everything that combat is for infantry soldiers. We discuss life after combat and where life has taken Jarrod since.

Racist Food And Pandering Police Cars

Chinese balloons, UFO's and train derailments! February has been interesting thus far. But being that it is February and it's Black History Month, I need clarification from the black community. Is soul food: fried chicken, watermelon, greens, mac and cheese, corn bread, chittlins'... etc, the food of "the culture"  and "the people" or is it not? Black folks, it's time to make a decision! Don't be offended by a soul food menu, but then be ok and cosign on a Black History Month police car. Is it time for police departments to disband their community relations departments? Lastly, are black people still being hunted down and lynched in America? President Biden seems to think so. 

2020 Through Her Eyes

The interview I have been waiting for! I am joined in studio by my wife Christina. We discuss our history, marriage, children and family life. But most importantly, we have an unfiltered conversation about her life as the wife of a police officer. You all have heard my say it many times, officers never serve alone; our families serve with us. Christina opens up about what it was like for her during the "fiery, but mostly peaceful" 2020 riots. It's a perspective that is often overlooked and overshadowed by those who wear the uniform. It is time that we recognize that we cannot do what we do without the love and support from our significant others. 

Zero Accountability & White Supremacy

What is a good person? There are four things people do that reveal their true character and if they are a decent person or not. I confess in this episode that I fail daily doing one of these activities. I talk about the Memphis Police incident and how the news refuses to let black people take any sort of responsibility or accountability for the incident, but puts the blame on white supremacy. Lastly, how is all that police reform working out for you?

Left Or Right

In this episode I reflect on the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and the lessons he taught us as a nation that we no longer adhere to or believe.  I do a deep dive on the left vs right divide that continues to split the country when it comes politics, the January 6th incident at the Capitol and how Americans believe they only have two options. I give my two cents on the La Lergne Police Department "sex scandel" that has created some of the greatest meme's of our time. Have you ever had any awkward encounters with family, friends or an old fling while on patrol? I have. Let me tell you all about it. 

Chatting With The Pointman

On this episode, I sit down and chat with the Pointman Podcast. Jon reached out to me and wanted to have me as a guest on his show. We talk about mental health, family, podcasting, starting our policing careers and much more. It's a good conversation between two guys trying to save lives, teach and inspire. Be sure to follow the Pointman Podcast and be sure to checkout Jon's company pointmandefensivesolutions.com to learn vital skills needed in emergency situations that can save your lives or the lives of others.  

Two Minute Highlight Reel

After a horrible seven days in Orlando, I am back to remind everyone not to judge and compare the quality of their lives to someone's two minute Instagram reel. It's easy to smile and dance in front of a cell phone for two minutes, while living the other 23 hours and 58 minutes in absolute dispair. Mental health in America continues to be a problem that we ignore until tragedy strikes and it's too late. Let's make 2023 the year we bring mental health to the forefront and save countless lives. Let's save our friends and family members instead of burying them. 

In honor of my 18th Alive Day Celebration (the day I almost died in Iraq) I’ve included a sample from my book “I Am Pitts: Memoirs Of An American Patriot” about that fateful night in Iraq on January 2, 2005.

For The Culture

The culture (the black community) goes after Coach Deion Sanders for accepting a coaching job at Colorado. Louisville Mayor Elect Craig Greenburg and President Biden are doing it for the culture with their most recent actions by hiring a new inter chief at LMPD and bringing Brittney Griner home. The democrats continue to be horrible at selecting appointees and negotiating. Is the American flag just a piece of cloth? A Phoenix police officer is busted, busting nuts on the clock on the tax payer dime. Navy Seal Chris Beck detransitions after 10 years and warns Americans of the evils of the trans movement.

The Future And Fate Of Louisville

What is the future of Louisville and the police department under the leadership of new Mayor Elect Craig Greenberg? In an open letter to the new mayor elect, I share my first and only encounter with Craig Greenburg in May of 2021. LMPD Chief Shields resigns, but she is not leaving quietly. Celebrities are in an uproar over Twitter and are leaving, but have remain silent about the Balenciaga child grooming ad. Lastly, I pay tribute to one of my favorite street people, Mark Anthony Mulligan.
