After almost 2 decades in law enforcement, I feel like I have some tips and tricks that will help guide new, veteran, and prospective law-enforcement officers. Here to help! Note: Follow law and policy!

    CQB Part 2

    Please message us! We’ll pin to the episode, and would love a dialogue. Let's continue to analyze the best practices to safely take structures as LEOs.  Christmas being in two days does not reduce the danger of this job.  Continue to develop in order to go home safe. When civilians watch videos of building clearing, they see the physical movement.  They largely analyze with an untrained eye.  They base their opinion on the result. As LEOs, our goal is enhancement of the process.  Out-think, out-maneuver, out-train the opposition. Thank you for listening and for continuing in your own self-development.  If you are deep in the holiday season and continuing down the road of reflection and growth, you are in the top 5%.   Keep it up, stay safe, stay warm, but stay frosty. -LEO Support the show Please follow on FB and Substack at links below!

    Close Quarter Battle - Train and Survive!

    Please message us! We’ll pin to the episode, and would love a dialogue. If you carry a gun to work - police & military, I'm looking at you - you've been trained in CQB.  Were you trained well?  Perhaps.  Were you trained badly? I have been.  Although CQB is subjective, we can learn from the mistakes and blood of others.  We don't have to get blood on our own hands due to poor (or lack of) tactics. Unfortunately, most established units that have a way of doing things will not change until they see the failure themselves. I'm passionate about CQB.  I've done an episode on complacency because I've seen it, and it's overwhelmingly visible in some CQB situations. Let's get thinking about our tactics.  Are the tactics we're using just good in training, or will they work on the two-way range?  Are we training in a way that encourages target identification and reactions?  Are we building training scars? The answer is yes, we are developing training scars. All training will come with some level of scarring, and we have to constantly adjust.   Become conscious of what you're doing, and be humble enough to learn from someone doing it better and personally evolve. Stay smart, think fast, stay alive and keep your friends alive through a change of CQB mindset! -LEO Support the show Please follow on FB and Substack at links below!

    Slang for LEOs! Be there or be Square!

    Please message us! We’ll pin to the episode, and would love a dialogue. Knowing the streets can make or break a case. The 1960s are gone where cops just run around with a 4-cell mag lite flashlight and thump folks.  We're a quarter way through the 21st century, so let's learn to communicate with our lovely communities.  That may mean knowing what people are talking about when they say the following phrases: That hoe slaps! That junt fye! 12 got my stolo! Bows on deck for the low! Got the drop on the opps! Lets slide If you are in law enforcement and can't speak street slang, expect to be a step behind.  Imagine dumping a phone as a detective into Cellebrite or looking through one as a patrol officer on the street and reading some of these, and not knowing that message five is about killing rival gang members, or message four is about selling pounds of drugs. Although slang varies from place to place, I've worked wiretaps involving criminals from all over the country and there is significant overlap.  Learn this slang from me, but more importantly, open your ears and mind to learning the slang in your area. -LEO Support the show Please follow on FB and Substack at links below!

    Advanced Fitness and Diet

    Please message us! We’ll pin to the episode, and would love a dialogue. Can one teach an advanced fitness and diet class in 30 minutes via Podcast? "You damn right!" -Shaft (if you haven't seen this police classic with Samuel L, get it together) Have previous episodes loosely cover these topics? You damn right. Upon review, was more detail needed? You damn right. Listen for a detailed layout that will unquestionably do several things: -  Bring awareness to your dietary and fitness habits -  Get you thinking about what you're doing fitness wise, and how you could vary your routine to improve -  Get you diet conscious -  Provide you with several options that may work for you -  Lower you blood glucose to battle diabetes / pre-diabetes -  Help you avoid hypertension and cardiac arrest If the last fitness or diet episodes left something to be desired, like 2 eggs, an avocado and black coffee for breakfast will if you weigh 250, then tune in and bring a notepad! Let's get you into the academy, onto SWAT, doing pullups, running miles, reducing weight in the wrong places and building it in the right places! Consult a physician prior to major dietary and fitness changes. -LEO Support the show Please follow on FB and Substack at links below! Substack contains true stories from my perspective.

    Please message us! We’ll pin to the episode, and would love a dialogue. Good morning!

I have begun publishing some stories of mine on the app Substack. See below. Here are some hobbies that might keep you sane while managing the street and your life. I kept the write up short because it’s only six minutes so I know you’ll be listening. Enjoy.

    LEO's Unpopular Opinions

    Please message us! We’ll pin to the episode, and would love a dialogue. Law enforcement is generally pretty subjective and we as LEOs are given ample discretion on how we perform our duties. Over the last few years, I've seen some LEOs rise, I've seen LEOs fall.  Same with attorneys on both sides, jailors, etc.  Heck, my original Chief of Police got federally indicted while I was working there and served years in prison. Some of these opinions are likely to keep you out of hot water.  Some I hope to guide your career into the loving hands of safety, longevity and prosper.  Some may keep a co-worker alive.  LEO is always hoping a chief listens, and an episode changes the face of an agency for the better - making it better at serving the public, its employees, and instilling public trust. If you don't like my opinions on grooming standards, pay, and the risk of risky group text threads, let me know your opinion.  Or just do what everyone does over these holiday dinners when politics come up - explain to me why you're right, I'm stupid, and I shouldn't be allowed to weigh in!

    Thanksgiving is Over...Let's get consistent!

    Please message us! We’ll pin to the episode, and would love a dialogue. The holiday is over, you've over-eaten, not worked out, neglected sleep and done everything else wrong. Forgive yourself! Being consistent to family, friends, co-workers and you means applying discipline over a period of time.  This last episode before December will help you get through the holiday season without neglecting sleep (to be covered next), diet, exercise, your job, and more! Please join me for 15 minutes, and share to a friend that is great...in short bursts...but fails to maintain this greatness. -LEO Support the show Please follow on FB and Substack at links below!
