    Episode 3: Holding the Line with Fewer Hands

    This week on Hot Tones & Cold Cases, we’re talking about one of the biggest challenges facing law enforcement across the country..... Staffing shortages......... But it’s not all serious talk! We tackle our Question of the Week: "What’s the difference between Arizona DPS, the Sheriff’s Office, and your local Police Department? " Spoiler, it’s more than just the uniforms. Then we dive into “First Job, Not a Cop,” swapping stories from our early workdays before joining the force. Finally, we play one of our favorite games, “Great Time to Be in Goodyear,” where we hear a wild headline and try to guess where in the country it happened. Tune in for insights, laughs, and a behind-the-scenes look at the people who keep Goodyear safe — even when the roster’s running thin.
