Equipment isues
Send us Fan Mail Today's police equipment has come a long way. When Sarge started back in the early 80's, it was a revolver, 18 rounds of ammo, a slap and a pen. you got your vehicle, radio and rifle when you finished squad meetings. Now? It's take-home cars, cameras, computers with specific programs that write your reports, citations and arrest reports then prints them out in the car. Writing things by hand, like citations and arrest reports are neanderthal to most officers today. Penmanship is no longer needed. Weapon systems have changed and the accessories that come with them now cost more than the weapon itself. Let us know what changes have happened since you entered the profession.

Is it worth the money?
Send us Fan Mail What is actually worth the money these days? Concerts went from entertainment by artists to political rallies. Furniture and appliances don't last anymore. When something does last, the consumer no longer has access to parts. It's by design. Why do actors and singers inject politics into their shows? Most are very far left leaning and many of their fans are just wanting a few hours where they can hear their favorite songs by their favorite bands for a little two-hour escape, but they must endure a political rally instead. Bobby and Sarge discuss this very topic. Join us on Spotify, IHeart, Buzzsprout or wherever you download your favorite podcasts. You can also find us on Facebook, Instagram and Threads.

Medicated cops
Send us Fan Mail In our careers, both Bobby and Sarge have known officers who have used chemical pharmaceuticals to help with certain ailments that they developed over long careers. How do these medications affect them is key to it being a problem on duty. With that, how many have been injured, both physically and mentally and sought treatment, only to get addicted and then crash and burn? How many leaders in law enforcement have known of the issue but instead of reaching out and saving the officer, they watch and then pounce once the officer crashes. We all have seen it and it's still wrong. What say you? Let us know by contacting us on Facebook, Instagram and Threads. Find us wherever you download your favorite podcasts.

Dealing with the disabled.... Again?
Send us Fan Mail Here we go again. Dealing with those with disabilities and they know it. Should the police grant certain considerations when dealing with disabled persons? Depends. However, when ordering a suspect out of a car and he tells you he is unable because he can't use his legs, do you rip them out of the car anyway for non-compliance? Even though it is clear the persons legs don't work anymore? Bobby and Sarge may have a problem with that. What say you? Let us know by contacting us on Facebook, Instagram and Threads. You can also listen in on your favorite podcast platform.

Cussing Cops
Send us Fan Mail Why do police, Fire, public safety and military always throw around cuss words like its a normal language?

Bobby and Sarge discuss this topic with some hilarity and conviction. Join us wherever you download your favorite podcasts. You can also contact us on Facebook, Instagram and Threads.

Loss of empathy
Send us Fan Mail In todays policing, has the ability to show empathy or compassion been lost? With social media now teaching people that they can be rude and mean to others behind the keyboard without punitive action, how does this affect their professional life?

The dangers of AI
Send us Fan Mail With all the artificial intelligence going on, one would wonder if the movie Terminator might be some sort of prophetic movie. Ai is moving towards perfection as we speak. The videos that we watch now cannot be trusted because there are forces out there with nefarious motives. Masses of the population will be swayed to believe things that never happened because AI has developed a video that looks, sounds and appears real but it won't be. We've seen the videos of preachers speaking on the same things and discovering the entire thing was AI and the people that were viewed do not exist and the message was false. Things are getting spooky and the old saying, who are you going to trust? Me, or your lying eyes may just be the new normal. Let us know what you think about AI. Is it a threat?

Who's spraying the skies?
Send us Fan Mail Have you ever wondered why aircraft appear to be spraying as they fly over. Some scoff and say its just condensation from the engines. Cool, I can accept that if they can explain why some aircraft flying at the same altitude leaving a trail that dissipates quickly and the others stay visible for miles and slowly spreads out over the sky. The fact is, there is weather modification going on. It's been going on since WWII. That is a fact. We also know that heavy metals are being found in ground water and soil samples. Snow has been tested and chemicals not found naturally are in the precipitation. Which means, its being introduced from aircraft. The big answer is why? Who's doing it and why are they doing it? Let us know what you think. Find us on Facebook, Instagram and Threads.
