I am extremely excited to have her on the debrief, because the broad scope and clear structure of her work will lay a foundation for several episodes to come on improving operator performance.

Joe Biden made the statement recently that Law Enforcement Officers should deescalate situations by shooting people in the leg. Do you agree? Should Police officers train to shoot people in the leg? It's a fair question.In this episode of the Livingston Parish Thread, I discuss some of my thoughts and I refer to Lt. Col. Dave Grossman and Loren W. Christensen's book “On Combat.” – The Psychology and Physiology of Deadly Conflict in War and Peace. Grossman is a former Army Ranger, Paratrooper, West Point Psychology Professor and author of the classic book, On Killing. Grossman is currently the Director of Killology Research Group and one of the world's foremost experts in the field of human aggression and the psychology of combat.

Throughout our lifetime, we are told of stories about unusual encounters on the road — a mysterious “dead on collision” with the strange and paranormal. Many people feel safe in their cars but on the open road at night or even in the day time motorists have had encounters or have seen things while driving that have terrified them. On tonight's show, Clyde Lewis talks with retired law enforcement officer and author, Loren W. Christensen about DEAD ON COLLISION

It's been over two years since I last interviewed Loren W. Christensen, so it was high time! In preparation, I asked my Patrons for questions and I got so many that we turned the interview into an AMA (Ask Me Anything). Loren was kind enough to answer each question in detail, sharing information from his vast experience in martial arts, self-defense, and law enforcement. Enjoy!

In the second part of The Aftermath Jamie Clubb looks at the psychological impact on individuals following a conflict situation. From the extreme cases of the atrocities of World War I to dealing with self-recrimination over not acting in a certain way against an intimidating antagonist the black dog haunts many of us. This episode touches on the roots of this figure of fear and depression from its roots as a folkloric spectral being of British folklore to the metaphor that is often used today. Jamie also discusses the methods many use to combat the various physiological and psychological effects of the aftermath.

We're at episode 15 now and in this one, I interview Captain Jon Lupo of the New York State Troopers. I've known Jon for a long time and he's a solid, stand-up guy. I wanted him on the show to let him share his experience in law enforcement with us all and ask some specific questions relating to self-defense and the law. I think you'll enjoy it! The reason this episode is a few days late is because I did a book launch last week and it took up all my time. As of then, you can get my Heavy Bag Training book again in paper and electronic version.  That said, let's start the show: http://www.wimsblog.com/2018/03/podcast-episode-15-interview-with-captain-jon-lupo Show notes: 1.

Retired officer Loren W. Christensen shares paranormal stories from men and women in uniform--police officers, sheriff deputies, SWAT, command, correction officers, and MPs. We convey their experiences featured in the book: "Cops' True Stories of the Paranormal: Ghosts, UFOs, and Other Shivers." These are veteran officers that have been there and done that, but on one occasion they were confronted with the unexplained. These are their stories.
