9-1-WHAT? Podcast (91WHAT‪)‬ Demarland Dean

Sheriff Scott Rose joined the show to discuss his career in law enforcement, his accomplishments, and his Officer Down Memorial Podcast. Sheriff Rose's father was a deputy at the sheriff's office and inspired him to pursue a career in law enforcement. Before that, Sheriff Rose was a radio personality, moving around from Arizona to Nebraska to Kansas, back to Nebraska, and then to Minnesota for different radio stations. After being a part of the sheriff's posse in his hometown, Sheriff Rose worked his way up to part-time, and then eventually got elected as sheriff. He has many accomplishments of which to be proud.  However, the time he was outrun in a car pursuit by a 14 year old kid was not one of those accomplishments.

Chris and Tina Rudiger joined the 9-1-WHAT? podcast to discuss their Sheep Dog Marriage podcast, which focuses on couples in the law enforcement industry and military. Chris has served in the US Navy for 26 years, and Tina has been married to him for 32 years. He was a bomb tech for 23 of the 26 years he served and thought becoming a police officer would be safer. They both discussed the difficulties and challenges of being married to a first responder. Chris retired from the Navy in 2013 and tried his hand in the civilian sector for a year, but didn't enjoy it. His wife Tina, tired of seeing him come home looking like a whipped dog, encouraged him to apply for a police academy in Florida. She even got him a plane ticket and running shoes to help him get ready for the test. Chris was able to draw parallels between his time as a bomb tech and his current job as a police officer, as they both involve serving others and the structure and camaraderie that comes with being in uniform.

Clive has a very exciting story to tell.  He worked his way up to fire chief in Lake Tahoe.  He tells his story of evacuating the town during the Caldor Fire in 2021.  Being a firefighter isn't always as glamorous as some make it seem.  It can be a pretty "stinky" business at times.
Clive has some great stories including performing CPR to save a dog and you don't want to miss the one about the guy using a Camaro to pull down a redwood tree.
He's also developed a very cool tool that you can learn more about below.  He's still helping to save lives even though he's no longer on the department.

This episode is a little different from my other episodes.  I sat down with Danny Collins who has an amazing story of having everything going for him, but losing, what seemed to be everything, due to addiction.  After being drafted and signed by the Atlanta Braves, his life took a downward spiral.  But his story doesn't end there.  While Danny is very open and transparent about his drug abuse and other decisions that landed him in prison, he didn't let that define him for the rest of his life.  We have a very healthy debate about prison and needed police reform.  While we may not agree on everything, we agree that discussion needs to be had in a civil and productive manner.  We just scratched the surface on this episode and I've asked him to appear on my new podcast, Dean's List, to go deeper with things.  
Now Danny makes a living with a wonderful company has that has a unique housing solution designed to make housing more affordable again.  Check out their website at www.containingluxury.com.  You'll be amazed at the beautiful home designs using containers!  By the way, Danny made if very clear to me in our off the air discussions that he is not a supporter of the cash bail system in the United States.

In this episode I catch up with former police officer Terry Tucker.  After honoring his father's wishes to forego becoming a police office to pursue a career in business, Terry followed his heart after his father's death and became a police officer.  He packed a lot into 10 years on the force.  Terry shares his story of nearly shooting a 14 year old kid brandishing an AK47.  He tells of the humorous arrests and close calls with death.  But maybe most impressive, Terry shares his personal health struggles and how those struggles have made him a better person.  Terry is now a motivational speaker and helps others be the best they can be.  We shared a lot of laughs during this episode.  But more importantly, you'll have a new appreciation for life after listening.
