Welcome to Beyond the Barrel, where every episode takes you deeper into the lives of those who serve on the frontlines. Hosted by two dynamic leaders— Kenny, a nationally recognized K9 interdiction officer, and Attorney Mike, a U.S. Army veteran and seasoned Patrol Supervisor—this podcast is where stories of bravery, sacrifice, and humanity unfold.

Beyond the Barrel isn’t just about what happens on duty—it’s about what happens when the uniform comes off. Kenny and Mike sit down with first responders and military personnel to dive into the real stories behind their service, exploring the personal challenges and triumphs that have shaped their lives. But they don’t stop there—they reveal the human side, the passions and interests that make these heroes just like you and me.

From veteran and cop to entrepreneur, law enforcement officers possess a wide range of skills that seamlessly translate to the private sector. Yet, we often underestimate our own potential, believing we lack the qualifications to pursue new opportunities. It’s time we give ourselves the credit we deserve and confidently explore what lies beyond the barrel.

In this episode of Beyond the Barrel, we sit down with Brent Tucker, a former Green Beret and Delta Force operator who dedicated his career to serving at the highest levels of military special operations. A Purple Heart recipient with multiple combat deployments across Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and beyond, Brent shares his journey from elite soldier to entrepreneur. After working closely with first responders and witnessing their struggles with limited resources, he founded First Responder’s Coffee Company to provide support and give the community a way to back those on the front lines. We also discuss his role as the Director of Training for Apollo by Medik Systems and his continued commitment to training and equipping those who serve.

Tune in for an inspiring conversation about leadership, resilience, and giving back.
