I had the pleasure of speaking with Tyler McCoy, handler and partner of K9 Arlo
Arlo has been retired after being shot in the line of duty and has gone on to become an "Internet Sensation".
Tyler shares how that incident effected him and he offers some great advice to officers who may be looking to get into the content creator / influencer space.

Like many in our profession, I've seen many horrible and sad things. But unlike so many, I was blessed, that those horrible things never affected me mentally.
But to go through what my guest on this episode, Preston Kinikin Warriors of Ramoth went through and I'm sure still dealing with, that would break me!
I encourage you to listen to the full interview, https://theoffdutypodcast.com/preston-kinikin Also this happened to you, do you think you could recover from it?

Leashes Of Valor - Danique Masingill
There's a new program that police departments and first responders really need to take a look at...
It's called "LOV Blue" and it was started by Danique Masingill the founder of Leashes of Valor
I had Danique on the podcast to talk about both programs and I think what she's doing with therapy dogs and LOV Blue, is adding one more brick in building that bridge between law enforcement and communities.
I encourage you to listen to the entire interview, https://theoffdutypodcast.com/leashes-of-valor

New episode is out and it features Ashley "Smashley" Cummins
While serving as a full time LEO, Ashley has also been a professional MMA fighter....
Fighting some of the top women in the world. After losing her title belt in 2020, Ashley wanted to use her talent as a fighter, to help her fellow officers stay safe when on the job.
During our interview, Ashley shares how she's been doing that.
Of course after learning more about what Ashley has going on, we have a little fun by jumping into the show segments....
Including a new segment I've added called "Flip the Script".
This is where the guest gets to ask you, the listener a question and you can respond by going here https://theoffdutypodcast.com/ashley-cummins
What in the Cop on Cop
Mike the Cop whom I had on the podcast, way back in episode 10. Joined me once again, to have a conversation about the incident in Sunrise, FL, which involved a female officer who pulled a male Sgt. back by the gun belt during the arrest.
The Sgt. grabs the female by the collar and pushes her back up against a police vehicle.
This is a clip of our conversation, which is also the first episode of my new VIP membership. https://theoffdutypodcast.com/vip
Each month 10% of the VIP memberships will be donated to the First Responders Children's Foundation
Note: Unfortunately I had some tech issues, that's why you can't see me. ๐
