We're bringing our reading program, Bears Behind the Badge, to YOU.  Cops reading kids!  Through Bears Behind the Badge, we've reached almost 4,000 K-3rd graders with "reading buddies" and classroom books all donated by the community in an effort to get children excited about reading so they stay on track to read at grade level by 3rd grade.  Since remote learning is the only interaction we have available right now, we'd love to be a resource for you every day via our podcast and YouTube channels.  Today we're reading "Yertle the Turtle" and "Don't Be Silly Mrs. Millie"...so grab a reading buddy because it's time to READ TO SUCCEED!

It’s been a bit but the boys are back! No guest this episode so you get the pleasure of hearing Jason and Chad—which is just enough. The discussion centers around how folks “take to Twitter” when outraged and how this maybe isn’t the best measure of real-life. Social media has placed a big burden on law enforcement and often presents a skewed perspective. Of course, there are the usual segments and bacon for your enjoyment!

Lieutenant Fischbach sits down with Jason and Chad to discuss the incident that led him to law enforcement, a “dirty money” memory, and hiking to make a difference. There’s a new studio in-progress, a bacon tasting/rating surprise, bad jokes, and some good news!!

It’s back to school! What better time to have a discussion about bullying and social media safety? And who better to talk to than 3-time Survivor competitor Jeff Varner? Jason, Chad, and Jeff attempt to have an intelligent conversation about the bully, the bullied, and understanding. Unfortunately, we couldn’t share bacon with Jeff over Skype. Have to work on that!

Jason and Chad are welcomed back to Pat McCrory’s radio show on WBT in Charlotte for the CPI crime prevention segment. Jason’s son makes his radio debut, as well!!

Jason and Chad sit down with Lieutenant Gil Narvaez to hear his journey from the Bronx to the Marine Corp, to law enforcement. Gil’s human side includes eye-opening life experiences, Fortitude Consulting, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and more. He even bring a delicious treat to go along with dad-cop jokes, bacon rating, a weird law in Oklahoma, crime prevention tips, good news, and of course some laughs!

Jason and Chad are back for a hard-hitting look at some of the most vital topics in modern policing...facial hair and tattoos.  Are they professional, inappropriate, offensive, humanizing?? We also discuss bodycams: pros and cons. Elaine Jones with Atrium Health joins them for an extended Good News segment as she explains the Kids Eat Free program. Rate the Bacon, find the pig, and more! Weigh in on this episode by emailing [email protected] or in the comments section of our YouTube channel.
