“Updates on narcotics issues are rare. Those of low character are exposed, yet the influential remain silent. Why the quiet? Why the double standards?” - Barima Kofi Dawson (Akokoa) blasts interior minister and Narcotics Control Board.

This week, The Munchie Boys tackle a Finisode preoccupied with unpacking Fin's history while an undercover with Narcotics, more than a decade after the fact. Rollins gets improbably shot, which leads to an unhealthy dose of police brutallity and metaphorical prison rape threats, but that's not nearly as shocking as some truly disturbing home-decor-driven revelations upon meeting a seemingly normal family with a secret left unspoken.Alexandra Eames also pops up in this episode, which means there's a little bit of Criminal Intent's history to deal with, and there are a ton of guest stars with SUPER WEIRD backgrounds which lead us to speaking about whether bands could have been around to have songs on the Iron Eagles II soundtrack, bathing beauty contests, Carmelo Anthony's very public and extremely inconsiderate birthday present to his wife, and another truly wild IMDb self-penned biography. This one starts wild and ends wilder in ways you wouldn't have predicted.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, Summer S, and Matt - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

This revisit is one of my personal projects that I had wanted to get out for the listener for quite some time and to see it all put together was something I will always cherish. This episode has been a project since this show began as we finally tell the story of the attack on Dallas Police Headquarters on June 13th, 2015. At approximately 12:30 am a suspect, driving an armored van, drove to police headquarters in Dallas Texas and planted bags containing pipe bombs and opened fire on the front of the building with an assault rifle. Several officers responded and were met with gunfire in the streets in front of headquarters and then led the police on a chase that would end in history being made in US law enforcement history with the method in which the threat was eliminated. The episode will detail the tragedy from the 2013 arrest of the suspect to the events on June 13th, 2015, as he was eliminated by the use of a .50 caliber rifle, the first and only time this weapon platform has been used on a suspect in the United States.   This episode welcomes then Dallas SWAT members Jude Braun, Kent Wolverton, Danny Canete and Keith Rieg to the stage to give a play-by-play firsthand account of this incident and the significance in Dallas and US law enforcement history.   Guest List: Jude Braun #5015            36 years with Dallas Police and served 33 years with Dallas SWAT. Jude has the reputation of being an expert on explosive breaching and spearheaded the rifle program on the Dallas Police Department. Braun is now retired. Keith Rieg #6809 32 years with the Dallas Police Department and is still an active SWAT member after 24 years. Keith is a sniper and pulled the trigger of the .50 caliber rifle during this incident. Kent Wolverton #8393 20 years with Dallas Police Department and served as supervisor in SWAT for nearly 7 years. Kent also commanded the Dallas K9 Unit and now is a supervisor in Narcotics.

State Senator Darrell Weaver joins the Undefeated: Defining Moments podcast for a wide-ranging conversation on leadership, resilience, and what it means to serve. With 28+ years in law enforcement—including nine years as Director of the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and a key role in launching Oklahoma's human trafficking enforcement efforts—Weaver reflects on the experiences that shaped his worldview, his faith, and his approach to public safety. Now a seven-year, undefeated state senator and candidate for Lieutenant Governor, Weaver explains what the Lieutenant Governor's role can be (beyond “next in line”), why promoting Oklahoma matters, and how real progress happens when you focus on results—not headlines. We also talk about Oklahoma's biggest challenges (education, healthcare, rural access, jobs), staying grounded amid political noise, handling negativity, and the personal defining moments that keep him humble and mission-focused. If you care about faith, family, public service, and the future of Oklahoma, this episode is for you.

In this episode we feature Enneagram 7, Becky Curtis, who talks with us about empathy and overcoming chronic pain. We also end the episode with advice on how each of the 9 Enneagram types can be more empathetic.In the summer of 2005, Becky Curtis was in a violent rollover car accident in the remote Big Hole Valley of Montana—just past the sign that read “Wisdom 14 miles.”A C-4 spinal cord injury almost took her life—twice. She fought to stay alive and rehabilitate from the severe injuries. Months of therapy helped her relearn many of the motor skills I'd lost, until she became somewhat used to her physical limitations.Then she encountered an even harder challenge: excruciating, burning, aching central nerve pain caused by a cyst on the spinal cord. It was inoperable. It seemed I faced a life of never-ending pain—so unbearable I didn't know how I could go on.Her doctors worked hard to help her find a solution, but the best medications for nerve pain didn't help. Narcotics didn't even touch the pain; they just made it harder for her to cope with her pain. She was trapped in her body and desperately wanted to get out.She prayed for answers and for hope. Referral to a pain clinic gave her training in the science of pain, knowledge of the mind-body aspects of pain, and tools to make desired behavioral changes and reach measurable goals. she now had a way to decrease her pain.She continued to research pain and to collaborate with medical specialists, but she recognized that a piece was missing for most people in pain: ongoing support, learning how to personally manage pain, and motivation to make lasting change. This sparked an idea that soon became her passion: helping others with chronic pain learn effective ways to decrease their pain experience and permanently manage their pain.I recognized a piece that was missing for most people in pain: ongoing support and learning how to personally manage pain.Becky Curtis founded Take Courage Coaching® with a vision to share what she was learning—how to manage my pain so it wasn't the center of her universe. In time she gathered and trained a group of people who are equally passionate about making life less about pain and more about living. Through the contagious courage of our great team of NBCHWC coaches, others are finding their way back from the brink of despair. Her dream is to make pain management coaching the standard of care for everyone with chronic pain.Pain no longer has control of her life. Every day she actively manages her pain under the backdrop of the towering mountains of Utah. And every day is filled with the joy of helping others learn and practice strategies that help free them from the tyranny of pain.Wisdom is no longer just the name of a small town in the middle of Montana. Today it means the power to understand pain and send it back where it belongs.https://takecouragecoaching.com

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – A dramatic U.S. military operation against Venezuela's regime reveals a far larger strategy at work. Beyond oil and narcotics, the Trump administration signals a renewed commitment to the Monroe Doctrine, confronting China, Russia, and Iran's growing influence in the Western Hemisphere while reframing American national security priorities on the global stage...

Although geographically distant from Chinese shores, Latin America and the Caribbean occupy an important place in Chinese foreign policy. In the past decade, China has significantly expanded its influence in the region. The main vector of Chinese involvement has been economic, including securing access to commodities such as soybeans, copper, oil, and lithium, creating markets for Chinese companies, and deepening financial ties through trade, lending, and infrastructure investment.  On December 10, China released a new white paper on its relationship with Latin America and the Caribbean, the third such document following earlier editions in 2008 and 2016. The White Paper characterizes the region as “an essential force in the process toward a multipolar world and economic globalization.” Its release came on the heels of the Trump Administration's release of its National Security Strategy, which places unprecedented emphasis on the Western Hemisphere and asserts that the US seeks a region “free of hostile foreign incursion or ownership of key assets,” highlighting the growing strategic salience of Latin America and the Caribbean in US-China competition.  To discuss the new White Paper and the implications of China's policies in the LAC for the United States and US-China relations, we are joined by Dr. Evan Ellis. Dr. Ellis is a research professor of Latin American studies at the U.S. Army War College Strategic Studies Institute. He previously served on the Secretary of State's policy planning staff with responsibility for Latin America and the Caribbean as well as international narcotics and law enforcement issues.Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction[02:07] US and China on a Collision Course? [04:50] Chinese Priorities in Latin America [08:33] U.S. Security Risks from Chinese Port Investments[11:45] How China Uses CELAC to Advance Its Agenda[14:27] How Latin Americans View China's Growing Presence[17:22] Honduras and the Republic of China[21:22] How Beijing Might Address U.S. Concerns [25:09] China's Reaction to US and Venezuela

Join hosts Beans and Gaz for a thrilling and unfiltered journey back into the heart of New York's gritty, demanding, and unforgettable 1970s. For this episode, we are once again immensely privileged to welcome back the legendary Ret Lt Cmdr Vernon J. Geberth to share more jaw-dropping stories from his decades-long, decorated career in law enforcement.This time, the conversation shifts to Lt. Cmdr. Geberth's formative and intense years working within the Narcotics division. Geberth pulls back the curtain on what it was truly like to patrol and work the streets of Harlem during this volatile era—a time marked by both cultural revolution and stark, unrelenting street crime.Prepare to be captivated as Geberth recounts the seismic event of the 1977 New York City Blackout. He provides a visceral, first-hand account of the chaos, the widespread riots, and the explosive surge in crime that gripped the city and specifically his precinct. We hear about the harrowing demands placed on officers, the impossible decisions made in the moment, and the pure grit required to maintain order when the lights—and the social fabric—went out.Beyond the streets, Geberth dives into the frustrating, yet all-too-common, reality of dealing with incompetence from above. He details the bureaucratic hurdles, the ill-informed directives, and the political pressures that often hampered effective police work. Yet, as always with Vernon J. Geberth, this is a story of ultimate triumph. Hear how he and his team navigated the internal politics, relied on their street-level intelligence, and ultimately succeeded in their vital mission, proving that dedication and smart policing can overcome even the most challenging circumstances.This is more than a true-crime story—it's an essential history lesson from a man who lived and shaped it.

You can spot a real cop's education in the way they build a case, not just how they make a stop. We sit down with two seasoned pros who turned years in patrol, gangs, and narcotics into a clear, step-by-step blueprint for specialized work: how to get selected without the buddy system, how to train beyond “watch and learn,” and how to carry a case from probable cause to proof beyond a reasonable doubt.We dig into the hiring signals that matter—bodycam audits from real weeks, not staged ride-alongs; 360 feedback from peers and those supervised; report samples that show articulation and judgment. Then we map the training path: drug ID and evolving slang, surveillance and countersurveillance, UC safety, entries, and the case law officers must master to survive cross-exam. On the gang side, you'll get an inside look at a modern structure—enforcement, detectives, intel, and prevention—and how intel pushes timely forecasts to keep patrol from walking into “not your average loud party.”The craft pieces are practical and blunt: why plainclothes isn't 5.11 pants and a posture, how to run safe, controlled stops with LPRs and cameras miles away from the heat, and why your network is more valuable than your gear. We talk about national information-sharing, smarter takedowns, and report writing that won't crumble in court. Just as important, we cover how to talk to people without faking it—respect first, honest questions, and the consistency that builds cooperation over time.If you care about safer streets, better cases, and a career that lasts, this conversation delivers.

In 1968, in response to sinister influences that threatened to corrupt America from within and without, the Federal Government established a new agency – one that quickly acquired a reputation for ambitious operations overseas, for covert action, and for doing what had to be done, no matter the cost. This new agency was the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, the BNDD. And within it – the forces of DELTA GREEN. This is the Borellus Connection. We recently finished the campaign on RPPR Actual Play and now we join up to discuss it. Join Aaron, Caleb, Chris, Tom, and I as we go through the book and discuss what we liked and didn’t like.

This case is personal. It happened just months before I began my career with the Atlanta Police Department, and it shaped the way I understood the job, the institution, and the stakes of unchecked power. On November 21, 2006, three Atlanta Police Department narcotics officers executed a no-knock warrant at 933 Neal Street in northwest Atlanta—the home of 92-year-old Kathryn Johnston. The warrant was built entirely on fabrication. Officers Jason Smith, Gregg Junnier, and Arthur Tesler claimed a confidential informant had bought crack cocaine from the residence earlier that day. No buy occurred. There was no dealer, no “Sam,” no surveillance. There was only an elderly woman living alone in a high-crime area, protected by burglar bars and an old revolver she kept for self-defense.Around 7:00 p.m., officers cut through the security bars and forced entry. Johnston believed she was being robbed. In the dark, unable to see who was coming through her door, she fired one shot over the intruders' heads. Officers responded with 39 rounds, striking her five or six times. As she lay dying on her living room floor, Smith handcuffed her and then planted three bags of marijuana in her basement to manufacture justification for the raid. The officers also pressured their informant, Alex White, to lie and say he had purchased drugs at the home.White refused to participate in the cover-up and went public six days later. His decision triggered an FBI investigation that uncovered systemic corruption inside the APD narcotics unit: falsified warrant applications, planted evidence, coerced informant statements, and a quota culture demanding nine arrests and two search warrants per officer each month.Officers who failed to hit numbers faced transfers and punishment; those who exceeded them received rewards and incentives. Investigators determined the same marijuana planted in Johnston's home had been used earlier that day to frame another man, Fabian Sheets. Sheets was then coerced into providing the false tip that sent officers to Johnston's address. Every step leading to her death was driven by lies, pressure, and a performance system that valued arrests over truth.The legal fallout was swift but damning. In April 2007, Smith and Junnier pleaded guilty to manslaughter and federal civil rights violations, with Smith admitting to planting drugs and lying on the warrant. In October 2008, Tesler pleaded guilty to federal civil rights charges. Sentences followed: Smith received ten years in federal prison, Junnier six, and Tesler five.The scandal dismantled the narcotics unit, forced policy changes requiring multiple controlled buys before warrants, sharply restricted no-knock entries, and accelerated the creation of Atlanta's Civilian Review Board. The city settled with Johnston's family for $4.9 million in 2010. Her house was later demolished, and in 2019 the Kathryn Johnston Memorial Park opened near the site. Her death became a lasting symbol of the dangers of quota-driven drug enforcement and the human cost of militarized policing—foreshadowing later no-knock tragedies like Breonna Taylor's killing in 2020.This episode examines the full chain of corruption that led to Kathryn Johnston's death, the cover-up that followed, and the institutional pressures that made it possible. It is a case about power without accountability, policing distorted by metrics, and the irreversible consequences when truth is treated as optional.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis and Kevin discuss the complexities of using narcotics in long-term care, particularly in a military or austere environment. They delve into the importance of understanding drug metabolites, context-sensitive half-times, and the implications for patient care. The conversation covers various anesthetic agents, their effects, and the clinical considerations necessary for effective pain management and sedation during and after surgical procedures.TakeawaysMetabolites of narcotics can significantly impact patient care.Fentanyl infusions can provide prolonged analgesia but require careful monitoring.Midazolam has a longer context-sensitive half-time compared to other anesthetics.Morphine's metabolite can lead to increased potency and potential overshooting.Dilaudid is preferred over morphine for its predictability in effects.Vecuronium's metabolite can cause prolonged neuromuscular blockade, especially in renal impairment.Ketamine can have unexpected, prolonged effects postoperatively.Timing of drug administration is crucial in prolonged field care scenarios.Patients with low urine output may require adjusted medication dosages.Understanding context-sensitive half-times is essential for effective anesthesia management.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Narcotics in Long-Term Care01:43 Understanding Metabolites and Context-Sensitive Half-Time05:02 Fentanyl Infusions and Prolonged Analgesia06:54 Comparing Anesthetic Agents: Midazolam, Ketamine, and Propofol10:11 Clinical Implications of Metabolites in Anesthesia13:27 Challenges with Ketamine and Other Narcotics16:03 Timing and Context-Sensitive Half-Time in Anesthesia20:39 Managing Post-Operative Pain and Sedation23:29 Key Takeaways on Metabolites and Infusion TimingFor more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠

Michael speaks with David Shedd, former CIA officer and former acting director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, about the Western Hemisphere and the escalating threat from Venezuela—on the heels of recent U.S. strikes targeting alleged drug mules off the country's coast. David discusses the significant shift in U.S. strategy, which now treats narco-trafficking more like counter-terrorism targets than criminal organizations. He explains why the U.S. is using MQ-9 Reaper drones and Navy assets to disrupt trafficking and openly acknowledging a covert action campaign. David also outlines how Venezuela, led by President Nicolas Maduro, is driving illicit migration and acting as a hub for malign influence from Cuba, Russia, China, and Iran. They also discuss the critical role of Colombia and Mexico in countering these drug trafficking and migration threats to the U.S. 

We're excited to share a new podcast from The Intercept called Collateral Damage. The investigative series examines the half-century-long war on drugs, its enduring ripple effects, and the devastating consequences of building a massive war machine aimed at the public itself. Hosted by Radley Balko, an investigative journalist who has been covering the drug war and the criminal justice system for more than 20 years, each episode takes an in-depth look at someone who was unjustly killed in the drug war. This is Episode One: Dirty Business. In 2006, a 92-year-old Atlanta woman was gunned down in her own home by police during a drug raid. The police initially claimed the woman was a marijuana dealer who fired a gun at them. The story might have ended there. But an informant bravely came forward to set the record straight. Subsequent investigations and reports revealed that the police had raided the wrong home, killed an innocent woman, then planted marijuana in her basement to cover up their mistake.In the ensuing months, we'd learn that the Atlanta Police Department's narcotics unit routinely conducted mistaken raids on terrified people. The problem was driven by perverse federal, state, and local financial incentives that pushed cops to take shortcuts in procuring warrants for drug raids in order to boost their arrest and seizure statistics. Most of those incentives are still in place today.The raids haven't stopped. And neither have the deaths.Subscribe and listen to the full series on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.
