April Hysteria

The month of April has been emotionally and mentally taxing to not only me, but all of my fellow officers in Louisville and our families. Multiple mass shootings, unprecedented violence, and drama at every level of life. In this episode I talk about Louisville’s mass shooting, the 9th street divide and how I am seeing America’s illegal immigration problem start to manifest where I work. Lastly, I was able to confront a former church colleague about their treatment of me during 2020.

Hope Is Not A Tactic

This episode was recorded on April 8, 2023, two days before the Old National Bank mass shooting here in Louisville. 

In this episode, I interview two retired LMPD officers, Lieutenant Dale Massey and Sergeant Eric Culver who have over 40 years of combined police experience and 22 years of SWAT experience. They are the founders of STAT (Strategic Threat Assessment Training). They train people and businesses for an active aggressor event by teaching them their three pillars of survival: escape, evade and engage. Following the most recent shootings in Nashville and Louisville, there has never been a more urgent time to start training and preparing , your families, businesses, schools, churches...etc for the next tragic incident. You know it's coming. So why not be ready? The response time when you call 911 is one to three minutes. What are you prepared to do in those one to three minutes until help arrives? Minutes matter and minutes can be the difference between survival or being evil's latest victim.

Go to activeaggressor.com to learn more about STAT and how they can help prepare your business or organization to survive the unthinkable. 

It’s Not March Madness It’s Trans Madness

On this episode, my son has gone viral on IG with almost 2 million views I tell you all my disgust for social media, more so Tik Tok, especially Tik Tok cops and reaction videos. Nashville Police Department officers set the standard for how to properly respond to an active shooter. The media, Biden Administration and Trans Activist have turned the Nashville school shooter into the victim. Is the Trans movement in America taking over? Are trans people created in the image of God? President Biden seems to think so. Lastly, women in America are losing their rights to men. Why have real, biological women not stood up together against the trans madness pushing them out of sports and erasing all their hard work?

Fighting Lies With Truth - Interview With Retired LMPD Sergeant/Author John Mattingly

Imagine working at a job for 20 plus year with honor, loyalty and integrity. Now imagine being injured working that same job, due to no fault of your own, and your "leaders" at your job turn their backs on you and throw you to the wolves after all you sacrificed for them and the organization. Even worse, imagine waking up everyday knowing that there is a bounty on your head and that your family is in danger as well for being guilty by association to you. Think about trying to relax and unwind by turning on the TV, and you hear the President of the United States, Oprah Winfrey, Beyoncé, and your favorite professional athlete speaking ill of you and spreading lies. That has been the life of retired LMPD Sergeant John Mattingly after he was shot on the night of March 13, 2020 while assisting with the search warrant at Breonna Taylor's apartment. In this episode, we talk about John's early life, the truth about this incident that the media, politicians and police leaders refuse to admit. More importantly, we talk about the future of America and policing.

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.
