Ten Eight Podcast

Some of the biggest fears a law enforcement officer may have is being shot and being on the national/global news for a scandal. What if both were to happen to you? God forbid, if the worst case scenario happened, are you truly prepared? Mentally, physically, logistically?  Be honest with yourself. I don't have the statistics but I can predict that a majority of our nation's law enforcement officers are not prepared for this. Jon Mattingly had to deal with just this, and more, following the incident in 2020 involving Breona Taylor. In this week's episode he shares his experience and how he has found his way out of the darkness. Check it out!

My guest this week is one of my favorite humans, Florida detective Bill Mauro. Outside of his police career, he is focused on making himself intentionally uncomfortable and improving his life. His current challenge is to complete a "murph" work out per day for 365 days. Our conversation focuses on stoicism, discipline and being uncomfortable and how that brings you great things. There is a lot to learn in this conversation and I hope you take something from it. We also talk about my first ever 75 Hard attempt and other attempts I have made to make myself uncomfortable. Check it out!

In a time when so many people are running from the job, let's talk to someone who has seen the narrative and pendulum swing a few times. Check out my conversation with Jason from NY and learn a thing or two.

Imagine feeling compelled to go into public safety... only to be burnt out by the politics and literally everything else to do with the job beyond the reasons you signed up in the first place. Check out today's bonus conversation with Brooke from the midwest. If you have something to say, let us know and we'll get you on the show.

Today's episode features an alumni from the National Football League turned peace officer in the great state of Utah. This is a major episode. We talk about burn out and how Isaac experienced it in the NFL and how he decided to make the jump from the gridiron to the thin blue line.

This episodes over-arching topic was breaking out of something comfortable to do something better for yourself. This week's bonus content is with Josh from Central Florida talking about working through his fear of leaving law enforcement, retiring, and going into the corporate world. Check it out!
