About the podcast

In 2016 my family and I packed up our belongings, rented our home, and headed for the west coast via RV.  I had been a natural resource officer for 4 years and a municipal police officer for 10 years but was ready for a change.  Upon arrival in Los Angeles I was able to gain employment as a civilian background investigator for the LAPD.  This is where I met Ken Roybal and Pat Buchanan along with a handful of other southern Californian police officers.  The background unit is where the idea for the podcast was born.  I had the privilege to sit with these gentlemen every day at lunch and hear the crazy, hilarious, and terrifying stories from their careers.  I started to think that people outside of law enforcement really needed to hear what police officers actually have to deal with on a daily basis.  I wanted people to hear their stories unfiltered without being censored.  I knew if people heard these real-life accounts they would truly appreciate what these men and women do for a living.   

Since starting the podcast back up I have asked my friend Ken Roybal to join me as a co-host.  We aim to do 2 episodes a week, one interview and one “Cops in The News” episode.  I am truly grateful for all the support I have received from the TPS community and look forward to the podcast reaching more and more people!
