Did a fun thing a couple weeks ago… recreated a CK ad for their cologne DEFY, except we made it Tucson.

Big thanks to all those who helped out. To Alec for providing the Voice Over and the cologne he designed, WOLFSBANE, which is an awesome scent. To The Downtown Clifton for letting us film in one of their boutique hotel rooms. To Diego for being our model. To Freddy Jay and Jivin Scientists for providing music. And to everyone else who came out to help.

Meet the Press Room Bomber…

When Detectives Harriet Shepard and Jasmine Alicia survive the concussions of a mail bomb, it lights the fuse of an explosive case. A blast from Detective Shepard’s past, her former mentor, T.J. Ramos, comes out of retirement as the Old Pueblo is bombarded with explosive devices. The M.O. is reminiscent of The Press Room Bomber, a case Shepard and Ramos closed 15 years ago. With the FBI trying to bulldoze the case and her partner, Detective Alicia focused more on a promotion, can Harriet keep her cool defusing the bomber’s plot before another deadly detonation.

Thanks for watching. And be sure to check out our scripted podcast Tucson Heat.

Season One is available now!

Season Two premieres April 19th!
