This episode provides crucial insights into the reality of police work, touching on key issues like PTSD, recovery from trauma, and the hidden pressures of maintaining a strong front in high-stress environments.

Only on audio at the time, this animated and re-cut version of the original podcast airing on February 14th, 2021 is the beginnings of a partnership that lasted until Mike could no longer out run his demons and took his life on May 9th 2024.
This heartfelt episode shows glimpses of where the podcast began and formulated its current structure. Only two men who have that chemistry could create magic like you’ve seen on countless podcast episodes.
