Live on the floor of the Texas Tactical Police Officers Association conference in Round Rock, Texas, April 2026, we've got another full crew around the table: Chris Kuras of Good Dude Concepts, his partner Franco, Kevin Selent from Rogue Targets, and Tom Marchitto of Sub Second. Before a single product gets mentioned, the conversation lands exactly where Iron Sights always does: the people solving problems that their agencies were never going to solve for them, doing it on their own dime, on their own time, while still actively serving on agency teams at multiple capacities.The session digs into three specific problems and the products born out of frustration with each. Kevin Selent breaks down why every conventional paper target on the market may be presenting PID flaws in training, and how Rogue Targets' real-model, background-free, anatomy-based silhouettes force genuine processing speed under stress. Tommy Marchitto traces Sub Second from Jeff Thompson sewing belts in the barracks of 7th Group all the way to the patrol-focused Exigent Response course that exists because body cam footage kept showing the same training deficiencies over and over. And Chris Kuras walks through the full origin of the BRB, from cutting targets with a knife in a dark abandoned mall, to a year of garage prototyping, to a real-world vehicle rescue that saved two small children.Running underneath all of it is a trend that keeps pulling back to the surface: the shift happening right now in the law enforcement training space, where officers still on the job are refusing to wait for agencies to catch up, are sharing curriculum instead of hoarding it, and are building collaborative networks, not competing fiefdoms. The conversation covers processing speed, training time lost to bad setup, the politics of progressive use-of-force policies, what game film from other agencies actually teaches, and why rising tides lift all ships.In this episode:• Conventional paper targets have borders and backgrounds that let shooters see the target before fully processing PID, risk assessment, and the processing speed required for both.• Rogue Targets uses real-model casting calls to produce subjects in multiple positions, skin tones, clothing colors, and threat postures, including seated and ground-level targets, because real warrant service is three-dimensional and bad guys aren't brown cardboard standing in the center of a white wall• Sub Second originated when Jeff Thompson started sewing belts in the barracks of 7th Special Forces Group; the name came from a sub-second draw on the range that day, and the company evolved from common tactical belts to a patrol-specific belt with full MOLLE and no D-ring after agencies pushed back on the buckle• The BRB mounting solution places the bar on a rare-earth magnet behind the pistol on the belt rather than on the vest, solving two problems at once: spalling risk from solid metal against soft armor, and the practical reality that patrol officers need both hands free to breach and then immediately transition to a primary or secondary weapon• Exigent Response for Patrol course was titled deliberately to get past administration, because the phrase 'hostage rescue for patrol' got rejected outright at multiple agencies, even though the actual content is about giving patrol officers the minimum viable skill set to act in the minutes before a team arrives• A neighboring agency incident where a female was stabbed over 100 times validated the BRB in the field: an officer on a regional part-time team used the BRB to break and rake a rear window and pull two small children to safety before the suspect could reach them• The collaboration model running through Good Dude Concepts, Rogue Targets, and Sub Second is explicit: open-source problem solving, no gatekeeping of curriculum, cross-promotion on social media, and a Good Dude scholarship fund where revenue is redirected to sponsor officers to attend training classes• TTPOA stands apart from other law enforcement conferences because the vendors are also the instructors on the live training days, meaning officers are being trained on products by the same people who designed them from field experience, not by admin staff checking a procurement boxChapters:0:01 The Capable Standard: Scott's new project1:51 Iron Sights intro2:34 Live at TTPOA: setting the scene3:52 Chris Kuras and Good Dude Concepts4:54 Franco intro: SWAT and canine handler5:54 Kevin Selent and Rogue Targets7:30 Tommy Marchitto and Sub Second intro33:47 Why conventional targets may not be optimal in the shoot house37:38 How Rogue Targets was born55:55 Sub Second origin story1:00:17 BRB mounting solution and spalling problem1:41:39 Where to find everyone and closing shoutoutsMentioned:Chris Kuras — Owner of Good Dude Concepts, full-time SWAT officer and instructor in South Florida, creator of the BRB breaching tool.Franco — Police officer on SWAT and canine handler in South Florida, colleague of Chris Kuras who attended TTPOA to help with the Good Dude Concepts booth.Kevin Selent — Owner of Rogue Safety Group and creator of Rogue Targets; DHS federal SWAT team member based in Miami with over 16 years on a federal tactical team.Tom Marchitto — Patrol sergeant, K9 handler, and part-time SWAT member from Connecticut, member of the Sub Second team alongside Jeff Thompson.Jeff Thompson — Founder of Sub Second, who started sewing tactical belts in the barracks of 7th Special Forces Group.Devin — Attending TTPOA to help staff the Sub Second booth while Jeff Thompson managed a warehouse move.Kim Pastore — Founder of the Jorge Pastore Foundation, credited with pulling together the Iron Sights recording setup at TTPOA.Paul Costa — Firearms instructor at Achilles Heel Tactical, cited as an example of an instructor whose delivery of information is as instructive as the shooting content itself.Craig Douglas — Founder of ShivWorks, praised for his instructor development style and the clarity with which he delivers information.Scott Oates — Appeared alongside Craig Douglas and Brian Frias at the Combative Summit episode Scott recorded about how to deliver training information.Brian Frias — Appeared alongside Craig Douglas and Scott Oates at the Combative Summit; BJJ black belt and ShivWorks instructor.Tony — Friend and trainer in South Florida who connected Kevin Selent with Chris Kuras by suggesting Kevin Selent call Chris on the day he was testing his first targets.
Just off the southern coast of Iceland, the Westman Islands are home to many of the country's several million Atlantic Puffins. When puffin hatchlings, known as pufflings, get confused by the lights of the city, volunteers of all ages search for wayward pufflings on the street and bring them in for health checks. After the puffins get the green light, the volunteers release them along cliffs and beaches. More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

When Dallas calls, the men and women of the Dallas Police Department step forward. They leave behind their families, embrace the unknown, and run toward the moments most people spend their lives hoping to avoid. They do so with courage forged through sacrifice, a commitment tested by every shift, and a promise to protect a city that depends on them. Behind every patrol car, every detective's investigation, every tactical operation, and every specialized unit is a team of professionals whose dedication forms the backbone of one of America's most historic police departments. In this limited series, Dallas Police Chief Daniel Comeaux sits down alongside the officers, investigators, and specialists who answer that call every day. Together, they pull back the curtain on the units, the missions, the challenges, and the victories that define modern policing in Dallas. Through candid conversations and firsthand stories, viewers will experience the people behind the badge and the unwavering commitment that drives them to serve. These are the stories of those who answer when Dallas calls—because protecting Dallas is more than a profession. It is a calling. Today we sit down with Mariana (Mari) Cartas-Santiago of South Central Patrol. Dallas Patrol is the backbone of the Dallas Police Department and Mari is one of the bright new stars of DPD.

Kenneth and Eugene discuss David Vincent’s need to have someone else believe him, the double-bluff of having an obvious main Invader guest star who isn’t, and ask the all-important question: If the cylinder contains the masterplan for invading the Earth, does that mean the Invaders have been working without a plan so far?
John Krupinsky grew up in Danbury Connecticut in a law enforcement family — his father and brother were both cops. He followed that path starting in Ridgefield before joining the Danbury Police Department where he spent 45 years working undercover becoming a sergeant and a detective running drug busts and working alongside federal agencies. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, John shares the complete truth about what 45 years in law enforcement really looked like — from policing in the 80s and 90s to undercover work to drug busts to the city's relationship with federal agencies to his take on local cops working with ICE to why it is harder to be a cop today to dealing with social media and first amendment auditors to massage parlor busts to encountering Ian personally when he owned a club in Danbury to going viral to the Black Lives Matter movement. _____________________________________________ #cops #police #truecrimestories _____________________________________________ Thank you to GLD & FACTOR for sponsoring this episode: GLD: New customers get 40% Off with code LOCKEDIN at https://www.gld.com/ _____________________________________________ Factor: Head to http://factormeals.com/lockedin50off and use code lockedin50off to get 50 percent off and free daily greens per box, with new subscription only, while supplies last until 09/27/2026.

Fourteen years in uniform. Four with the Parachute Regiment, a decade in the SAS. Patrol medic and qualified mountain guide. Afghanistan, Iraq, and covert deployments. Jay Morton left in 2018 and went straight up the world's biggest mountains — two Everest summits, one of them solo. Everest comes up, and it isn't pretty. He stood on the summit alone in 2017. Now it's a queue of paying clients short-roped to the top, garbage stacked at Camp 4, two hundred grand for the VIP package. Nobody walks out anymore. They fly — on some of the sketchiest helicopter rides you'll ever hear described. We get into what nobody warns you about: leaving. In the unit, everything is built around you. Someone books the flight. You wake up knowing exactly where to be. Then it's gone, and you're staring in the mirror looking for the guy who used to handle all of it. We talk about chasing a bigger number in a bank account, then realizing a month later you didn't care about the thing you bought. Status versus utility. What his sister, a hospice nurse, heard people say at the end — and what they never said. Also in here: the reality TV machine, the hypocrisy of the silent-professional crowd, twelve coffees in a day, and where AI stops being useful.

Send us Fan MailBob and I sat down for a pretty healthy "second round" to wrap up his career. About a week later he texts me and says, "I can't believe I totally forgot to mention the worst call I've ever had! It included dead bodies, animals, and it dragged on for so long I had to receive several IVs for hydration to make it through."He came back a third time and I managed to find a nice little place to squeeze this story in. Listen in and see if you can tell...I appreciate Bob's friendship over the last 30 years. Our friendship is much like many other of my law enforcement buddies. We go years without seeing one another, but pick right back up where we left off when we meet back up.I hope you all enjoy this one, Bob's a good man and he served this community with integrity and honor for multiple decades.

In this episode of Fringe Radio Network, Bruce Collins sits down with Michael Letts to discuss the growing challenges facing law enforcement agencies across America. The conversation explores how many police departments are operating under increasing financial pressure while simultaneously dealing with staffing shortages, public criticism, and rising expectations from the communities they serve. Michael Letts shares his perspective on the impact of underfunding, the effect of negative public narratives on officer morale, and the difficulties departments face in recruiting and retaining qualified personnel. The discussion examines the relationship between public safety, community trust, and the resources available to local law enforcement organizations. The episode also addresses broader societal questions surrounding crime prevention, policing strategies, officer support systems, and the future of public safety in the United States. Whether listeners agree or disagree with the viewpoints presented, the conversation offers insight into the challenges currently facing police agencies and the communities they protect.
A recent road rage fight on I-70 in Colorado highlights how police are using new technology to quickly identify suspects. After two drivers stopped in the middle of the highway and fought, authorities used a drone and automated license plate reader technology to track down the vehicles involved. Police say these tools help solve crimes more efficiently, while critics continue to raise concerns about privacy and surveillance. Bradley spoke with David Benowitz, VP of Strategy & Marketing Communications for BRINC Drones.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I love a good ensemble film, one where a bunch of characters some together and pool their collective talens in order to achieve a common goal. In this week's episode I'll be recommending a few films in which multiple characters team up and head out!Smokey and the Bandit (1977)Big Enos and his son have a taste for Coors beer, which back in the 1970s was illegal to ship east of the Mississippi. The two are willing to pay big money to anyone who can make the run from Georgia to Texas and back and deliver 400 cases of Coors in less than 28 hours, and the Bandit (Burt Reynolds) and his pal Cletus (Jerry Reed) are just the ones to pull it off. Unfortunately for them, the Bandit picks up a runaway bride named Carrie (Sally Fields) who left Junior, the son of Sheriff Buford T. Justice (Jackie Gleason), at the alter. With a Smokey from Texas hot on their tail, it's “east bound and down” in a race to deliver the goods before the law ruins their fun.The Great Muppet Caper (1981)When Kermit, Fozzie, and Gonzo blow their first (and last) job as reporters for a newspaper in England, the trio must team up to clear their names and prevent the theft of Lady Holiday's most expensive posession, the Baseball Diamond. Featuring a slew of cameos and starring Diana Rigg as Lady Holiday and Charles Grodin as her crooken brother, Nicky. Personally, I think this sequel to The Muppet Movie is actually better. Yeah, I said it.Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol (1987)In the fourth Police Academy film, citizens are being recruited to assist our favorite police department through their new outreach program, Citizens On Patrol (C.O.P.) The new recruits are unqualified buffoons… which makes them a lot like the officers already on the force.Cannibal: The Musical (1993)The sky is blue, and all the leave are green… that is, until Alferd Packer returns from a prospecting expedition gone wrong and instead of finding other survivors, search parties find evidence of (gulp) cannibalism. Written by and starring Matt Stone and Trey Parker of South Park fame, Cannibal: The Musical features an interesting plot, catchy musical numbers, and jokes you can really sink your teeth into (no pun intended).I love a good “Hero's Journey” plot, but films with groups of characters joining up to accomplish a common goal can be even more fun. If two is company and three's a crowd, ensembles are a whole bunch of fun! Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.
