Episode 305: The Safety Doc 

In this episode, Dr. David Perrodin joined for a delightful discussion. Topics ranged from; school shootings, 9/11, freedom of speech & Parler. “Dr. David Perrodin separates empirical evidence from mainstream hysteria in response to local and global safety issues. His work centers bullying, harassment and threat input systems that help promote safe environments for the 55 million students that attend school in America each day! Dr. Perrodin’s incorporates perspectives from several industries to best inform school safety practices. As an expert in safety preparedness and response, Dr. Perrodin has presented on public television, in school districts and at school safety conferences. He has access to the top safety specialists in the industry and works collaboratively with this talented network to bring unparalleled services to clients. In 2016, he partnered with Pulitzer Prize winning author and producer David Obst to write and direct a script involving an intruder in an elementary school setting.”

Dr. Perrodin’s most recent book “School of Errors establishes another voice in the discussion of how to promote safe schools. It challenges the unchecked expansion of school fortification and hyper-realistic intruder drills and questions the realized benefit of inter-agency collaboration during a sentinel event. This book offers an alternative to traumatizing simulations by providing clear options for improving school safety by the empirically-proven effective measures of instructing situational awareness and teaching students to identify and report threats of harm to self or others. School of Errors restores the scientific method to school safety and clears a path through the media rhetoric fogging this vital topic.”
