A lot of people want the wild FBI stories. We wanted the part that lingers after the story ends, what the work does to your nervous system, your faith, your marriage, and your view of other people. Former FBI agent Eric Robinson joins us with zero script and a ton of honesty about how you stay human when your job is to stare at the worst of human behaviour all week. 

Eric talks SWAT life and the “can’t turn it off” moments, including how a simple sound can kick your body into go mode. We get into his biggest long-haul financial fraud investigation, the surreal world of fake foreign bonds, and why calm curiosity beats chest-thumping when you need a confession. He also connects his years as a pastor to law enforcement, explaining how he sees justice as service, not ego. 

We go wider into real prevention: mass shooting warning signs, the fear of “looking foolish” that keeps people silent, and what intervention can look like when someone is suicidal or dangerous. We also talk teen prostitution and the manipulation tactics pimps use to control vulnerable kids. Eric closes by sharing his upcoming book, Irreverend: From Saving Souls to Chasing Sinners with the FBI, built from cases, humour, and hard-earned after-action lessons.
