It was my pleasure to host Robbie, get to know him better and I was amazed at how many of the historic events around Tucson he had been a part of. I'd be lying if I denied that the little whisper in the back of my head didn't save me on a number of occasions. Robbie describes the same phenomenon and absolutely attributes this :Guardian Angel" to his faith.

We only made it through his police career int his episode, but I must say I'm intrigued to hear about his years as a prosecutor in the Phoenix Valley, keep your eyes peeled for future episodes.

So, with all due respect, please give a warm welcome to the newest member of The Squad and let's get this show started!!!

Kurt is back! The last time he was on the show was 2022! He said he wanted to come back and share with The Squad the different types of therapies he has used over the years to help him deal with the calls and situations he was dispatched to. I'm grateful for his honesty, vulnerability and authenticity!

My hope is that there are a few nuggets in here that you might find helpful. Thank you again Kurt, I appreciate that you suffered through some anxiety to share your message!!! I hope it makes all the difference for you and for someone else out there...

My good buddy, and multiple time guest, Bill Hanson arranged the meeting between Randy and I!

We met, I gave him a hard time about being a second responder, but he was such the gracious guest. He chose the fire service after he had an interaction with Firefighter/ paramedics early in his life which sealed his destiny! Many years later, he rose to the ranks of The Chief and he continues to serve in retirement.

On a serious note, I appreciate his authenticity and willingness to share the story of his son Aaron. Aaron was an EMT in the Phoenix Valley early in his adult life. He saw some things that made a deep impression on him, some that he could not shake. He went on to become a firefighter for Golder Ranch, but not without some demons which ultimately caught up to him.

Randy, thanks again for sharing your story, creating this legacy, and continuing to serve. Squad, you know what to do...lift him up, enjoy the episode and thanks for tuning in.

Rick and I worked together while in the Office of Internal Affairs. He was our Captain, and the Chief's Executive Officer. Later, we met back up at the academy. I had escaped from IA and he was given the plush assignment right before he retired as a reward for a job well done under more stressful assignments.

I enjoy his company, so much so, that we had to meet on two separate occasions just to get this episode in the books! Rick, thank you for being willing to put yourself out there and hang out for a few hours. Your feedback of the show mean a lot to me, my only hope is that the service I provided to you in recording this permanent legacy was just as invaluable.

Folks, give him a a Choir Practice welcome and enjoy the show!!!

Well, the last time Ron popped in we only made it through his career with the Pima County Sheriff's department.

He's back, we clear up a few more notable PCSO moments and dive full into his career as a Spook. All kidding aside, he worked for another 16-17 years as an FBI Analyst. I'm honored host him and I'm so glad to present him to you, the coolest folks on the planet.

Turn it up, send me a note about this episode! I appreciate you all...

To say I enjoyed meeting up with Raul again would be an understatement. He was episode 28 three years ago. I didn't think he could top the story of his partner slapping someone across the face with a rattle snake, but here we are.

He makes the podcast t-shirts (a gift for every guest, super exclusive gifts!) so I cornered him and forced him back on the show for another episode. We had a great time, I enjoy his company and I hope you enjoy this round of tales from his days working the US/ Mexico border in California and Arizona.

Turn it up and enjoy!

Jenn and I crossed paths over the years. We were new Sergeants on the Eastside and went on to join each other on a study group to promote to Lieutenant.

She's newly retired after just over 24 years and I'm proud to know her. Really looking forward to what she does next, and I'm happy to share her career with you all.

Give her the warmest welcome and enjoy!!!

Occasionally, I like to take a look back at where we've been so we can fully appreciate where the show is today. I do this by sharing some of the most popular episodes over the years.

Based on the numbers...Nancy is right up there with Ed Boyen, Jen Brotherton, and Mike Thrall! For all you new listeners, take a look at their interviews as well and you'll see why I love what I do! The stories, the authentic guests...it is an honor and privilege to sit wit these folks...

Sit back, enjoy the ride and thanks for being a part of The Squad!!!
