Imagine your “hobby” is catching online predators. That’s the reality for the Big Bad Wolf, who’s caught over 300 creeps in just 2 years. From decoy chats and sting operations to courtroom drama and emotional burnout, this episode pulls back the curtain on the underground predator-catching world—and the dangerous gap law enforcement is leaving behind.

We talk:

- How he builds cases without baiting

- The psychology of predators

- The most disturbing catches

- Why parental complacency is fueling this epidemic

- And how YOU can protect your kids

One of the most intense—and important—episodes we've ever done.

You’ll laugh, cringe, and walk away thinking a whole lot deeper about your kid’s phone.

🚨 If you’re a parent, this one’s mandatory viewing. 🚨
