Gary and I met at the gym, like many of my previous guests. His introduction into law enforcement was unique, I really enjoyed hearing about his career prior to being a cop! Once he was hooked though, the shenanigans ensued! He started in San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department but eventually moved to Oro Valley, AZ.

Please give him a warm Choir Practice Squad welcome, grab a cold drink and get ready to laugh. 

Be safe out there ya'll! Here's Gary!

Jeff is back, we start the episode laughing so hard I almost had an asthma attack! Like all my guests, I'm honored he was willing to come back and hang out again. He was rear ended  by a suspected drunk driver after leaving, good thing he was in a huge Dually pick up! He ok, no injuries and a little soreness! 

Please give him another warm welcome and enjoy the show!

Retired Antioch Police Officer, Eric Johnsen, is back in the studio and we hung out for a few hours sharing some more stories. Since he was here last February, we had been chatting and he said what almost all my guests say, "Once I left I started remembering a lot more stories that I forgot to share!

He showed up with a page full of notes and we had a great time! He's such a good guy, if you didn't catch his episode go back and take listen...episode 63! Be safe out there and thanks for tuning in!

Jeff and I met while working at the Pima County Sheriff's Department. He continued on to become a Captain, honorably serving the citizens of Pima County, before retiring and being hired as the Executive Director of T.R.O.T.

He started his public service as an Air Force enlisted airman, guarding nukes around the world, then he became a reserve Deputy in CA! He moved to AZ, where he had previously met his wife, and the rest is history! He'll be back in a week to wrap up telling all the cool stories from his career, but for now...It's my honor to host Jeff, please enjoy the show!
