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 two legends of criminal highway interdiction — Bauer Brown and Albert Clark.

Bauer, an award-winning K9 handler and interdiction officer, shares how “cold” traffic stops led to some of the largest drug seizures in the nation, reigniting the passion of countless officers through his nationally recognized instruction.

Albert, a pioneer in criminal interdiction with the Navajo Police Department and longtime K9 Sergeant with the Apache County Sheriff’s Office, brings over three decades of frontline experience, courtroom victories, and mentorship that helped shape the future of proactive policing.

Together, they reflect on their careers, the lessons learned from the streets to the stand, and why passion, precision, and persistence are the keys to winning — not just in interdiction, but in life.

If you’re a cop looking to get fired up about your calling again, this is the episode you need to hear.
