“You don't kill your inner critic. You just tell her to wait her turn.” Michael Dargie speaks with Terry Tucker, a man who's lived many lives: Division I basketball player, SWAT hostage negotiator, undercover cop, cancer warrior, author, and motivational speaker. Terry's journey is one of resilience, reinvention, and redefining what it means to live with purpose—even when the odds are against you.

He breaks down his “Three F's” (faith, family, friends), his mindset shifts (“do I have to, or do I get to?”), and what it really means to build sustainable excellence. We also learn about his favourite book, his Rocky Road obsession, and how a roomful of nurses made him feel like the most beloved man alive.

FTO Coordinator Sergeant Gerry Buonocore joins the Cape CopCast to take us behind the scenes of the Cape Coral Police Department's comprehensive training program, revealing the journey from recruit to fully-qualified officer. With eleven years on SWAT, experience as an undercover Narcotics Detective, and now serving as the department's Field Training Officer Coordinator, Sergeant Buonocore brings unique perspective to the conversation about what makes an effective police officer.What does it really take to wear the badge? The answer might surprise you. The training pipeline spans approximately nine months – six months at the Academy, nine weeks of Department-specific training, and nearly 50 days of closely supervised field training. The Cape Coral Police Department recently enhanced their pre-deployment phase to include patrol rifle certification, speed measurement certification, and Crisis Intervention Team training before officers even hit the streets. This strategic move ensures new officers are fully equipped from day one.Throughout our conversation, Sergeant Buonocore emphasizes that communication skills are key when it comes to effective policing. "If we can handle a situation just using our communication skills, that's always going to be the best outcome," he explains. While the department maintains high standards and isn't afraid to dismiss trainees who don't measure up, their primary goal is setting officers up for success through thorough preparation and mentorship. The badge and gun come with "an immense responsibility" that requires not just physical courage but emotional intelligence and sound judgment.Sergeant Buonocore reflects on the balance between administrative duties and field work, the brotherhood formed through shared experiences, and the continued community support that makes Cape Coral unique.

In this episode of Police K9 Radio, we sit down with Aaron Taylor, a nationally recognized leader in the dog training world and the founder of Ridgeside K9 LLC. Aaron is a prior Infantry Marine Sergeant with a 100% combat-disabled rating. Leveraging the Yellow Ribbon Program, he attended The George Washington University, earning degrees in both the Science of Policing and Psychology. Following his military service, Aaron spent 16 years with the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office, retiring in 2018 while assigned full-time to K9 on a full-time SWAT team. Over the course of his career, he served 14 years in special operations and investigations, including time in Narcotics, SWAT, and K9. Aaron is also recognized as a certified expert in the 4th district, having testified in both state and federal court. He has been featured on national platforms such as The Dr. Phil Show and on numerous podcasts, where he encourages, mentors, and helps finance law enforcement and military veterans as they transition into entrepreneurship. After stepping away from policing due to growing conflict with administration and declining community support, Aaron leaned into his lifelong passion for dog training. What began as a small venture quickly grew into Ridgeside K9 LLC—now one of the nation's most recognized and fastest-growing dog training companies. In this episode, Aaron opens up about the emotional and practical challenges of leaving law enforcement, building a business from scratch, and what it takes to create a mission-driven company.

From Friday night title fights to mysterious masked men and sold-out shows, we're breaking down the wild weekend that was, and previewing a jam-packed slate of shows ahead.

Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: Man Claims Ex-Wife is Raising His Kids in Pagan's Clubhouse During a War! Now THIS is wild. A man has come forward with shocking allegations: he claims his ex-wife is raising their children inside a Pagan's Motorcycle Clubhouse — right in the middle of an all-out biker war. According to him, not only is she living there, but she's exposing the kids to club culture, potential violence, and a high-tension environment tied to ongoing investigations, shootings, and SWAT raids. While the courts haven't issued any public statements yet, the story raises real questions: • Is this child endangerment? • How far is too far when it comes to club loyalty vs. parenting responsibility? • And what role do family courts play when the MC world and home life collide? In this episode, we dig into: • The man's claims and what we know so far • The implications of raising children in an outlaw clubhouse • The reality of club life during internal and external conflict • And what this could mean legally, socially, and culturally Join Black Dragon, Lavish T. Williams, and Logic as we break down one of the most bizarre stories to hit the MC world in 2025. Watch live on: Black Dragon Biker TV: /blackdragonbikertv Lavish T.

VFX veterans Chad Wanstreet and Allan McKay join Chris to talk about their new startup, Version Zero, a company aimed at automating the mundane tasks that bog down visual effects work. Born out of years of frustration with tedious jobs like roto, paint, plate cleanup, and matchmove, Version Zero helps artists and studios save time and focus on the creative parts of production. Chad and Allan share the origin story of the company, which started over Thanksgiving wine and coffee, and explain how their tools are already being used on shows like The Sympathizer and SWAT. The conversation dives into how Version Zero works, how it differs from other AI-driven tools, and why they have resisted VC funding to stay focused and practical. Chris, Chad, and Allan debate the future of entry-level VFX jobs, the rise of the empowered generalist, and how AI can enable artistry rather than replace it. They also reflect on the resistance to new technology in the industry, the “false economy” of outsourcing, and the importance of developing tools that fit real production needs. It's an honest and thoughtful look at the future of VFX in an AI-driven world and how to build a smarter starting point for artists: version zero.

Before recording the night's session, the guys talk about how Derek missed last week, why Derek doesn't have a Tiktok, nerding out for 5 uninterrupted minutes about Warhammer 40k, the new upcoming Chasm Inferno 2 season, being SWAT'd, Joe's controversial opinions on candy bars, and more!

This voicemail had me fully sweating. A teacher casually drops that a full SWAT team showed up at her school… and the kicker? It wasn't even a drill. We're talking lockdowns, military gear, weapons drawn, and a group of students who were just trying to get to lunch. And the reason they showed up? Ohhhh, you are not ready. I spiral through the possibilities, ask all the wrong questions, and react in real-time to what is possibly the most over-the-top, under-explained escalation in school discipline history. If you've ever wondered what it feels like to go from supervising recess to being in the middle of a tactical operation, this one's for you. Takeaways: A voicemail about a SWAT team storming a school sends me into a full-body spiral, because the reason? Unhinged. Another caller shares what happened when a vending machine break-in led to a full-on student confession… and some unexpected admin energy. We talk about what happens when the punishment doesn't match the crime and whether schools are just winging it at this point. I try to get serious (briefly) about boundaries, blame, and how kids process consequences even when the adults aren't getting it right. And for anyone trying to survive this week intact, I drop a resource that might actually help you feel like a human again. — Join our Book Club: www.patreon.com/thosewhocanread Don't Be Shy Come Say Hi: www.podcasterandrea.com Watch on YouTube: @educatorandrea A Human Content Production Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we're diving into one of the more heated debates in the firearms and training community — Should civilians be training in CQB? Close Quarters Battle. Is it a useful skill, a fantasy-driven distraction, or something in between? If you've spent time in the training world, you've probably heard both extremes: "Civilians have no business learning room clearing" — or — "CQB is essential to defending your home and loved ones." So which is it?I'll lay out both sides of the argument, share my own view, and maybe challenge a few assumptions along the way. Whether you're military, law enforcement, or a civilian shooter, there's something in here for you. Support the showGet Members Only Content when you upgrade to a premium membership on our Substack page.

On Friday May 17 2024 the Surprise Arizona Police department received a call that a suspect had broken into his ex-girlfriend's home and taken her and their 7-month-old child hostage. The suspect told her that he planned to kill her and the baby and eventually killed her dog.  She eventually convinced the suspect to let her go outside and fled to local construction workers who called the Surprise police.  When police arrived on scene, they found the suspect shooting out the front of the house into neighboring homes.  The decision was made to conduct a high-risk entry to rescue the child.  What ensued was a textbook hostage rescue by members of the Surprise SWAT team augmented by patrol officers who entered the home and rescued the child getting him to medical attention and saving his life. The team, having rescued the baby, then pulled out of the home leaving the suspect barricaded in a back bedroom.  The suspect eventually lit the house on fire before committing suicide.  My guests today are Officer Ryan Scott and Officer Travis Karpuleon from Surprise PD who were both part of the team that rescued the baby Resources: Critical Incident Debrief 5.17.2024 - YouTube

Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: SWAT Raids Pagan's MC House – Outlaws MC Shooting Cited The fallout continues after the drive-by shooting at the Outlaws MC clubhouse in Newton, North Carolina, on June 8th. Two men were shot — one of them a patched Outlaw, who later died from his injuries. Since the shooting, rumors and internal law enforcement radio traffic have pointed to possible Pagan's MC involvement. Though no official charges have been filed tying the club directly to the shooting, yesterday's SWAT raid on a Pagan's MC clubhouse suggests otherwise. Authorities executed a high-risk search, reportedly based on ongoing investigations linked to the Newton shooting. One man was arrested, and police have confirmed the raid is connected to the June 8th attack. In this episode, we break down: What happened during the Newton drive-by shooting The law enforcement chatter linking the Pagan's MC to the attack Details from the SWAT raid and the arrest that followed Whether this marks a new chapter in club conflict And what this means for club visibility, retaliation, and MC relations moving forward Join Black Dragon, Lavish T.

On Monday, the Senate Finance Committee released their revisions to the "Big Beautiful Bill," pushing for deeper tax cuts and lowering the State and Local Tax (SALT) cap back to $10,000. These changes have sparked some friction between Senate and House Republicans, as President Trump warned that failure to pass his bill could lead to "the highest tax increase in history instead of the greatest tax cut in history." Congressman Mike Lawler (R-NY) joins the Rundown to defend raising the SALT cap to $40,000, and he explains the stakes for the U.S. in the Israel-Iran conflict. Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team members come from diverse backgrounds. Some start their careers in the military, while others are civilians who often find themselves in high-stakes situations. Tommy Wehrle, a SWAT officer, sniper, and former Baltimore County police officer, joins the Rundown to discuss his career and how he joined the SWAT ranks as an elite sniper.

Vance Boelter's 45-Person List Minnesota Lawmaker Case EXPOSED Description: Uncover the shocking details of the most extensive political hit list in American history. This explosive investigation reveals how Vance Boelter systematically compiled a death list of 45 Democratic officials across six states, turning political disagreement into a blueprint for mass assassination. The June 14, 2025 attacks that killed State Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband were just the beginning of a planned massacre that could have changed American politics forever. This episode exposes the full scope of Boelter's target list, including high-profile names like Governor Tim Walz, U.S. Senator Tina Smith, Representative Ilhan Omar, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and lawmakers from Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Nebraska, and Iowa. We examine the meticulous surveillance notes found in his possession, describing victims' homes, routines, and vulnerabilities in chilling detail. Through exclusive analysis with former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, we explore how Boelter's position on the Minnesota Workforce Development Board gave him insider access, why his targets were specifically chosen, and how his fake police disguise enabled him to strike. The investigation reveals his arsenal of weapons, the 20 SWAT teams involved in his capture, and the federal charges that could result in execution. Most disturbing: evidence suggesting this may not have been a lone wolf attack. Boelter's text about not wanting to "implicate anybody" and his family's attempted flight with passports and cash raise questions about a broader conspiracy. This is the definitive examination of a case that exposed fatal vulnerabilities in how America protects its elected officials. #VanceBoelterHitList #MinnesotaLawmakers #PoliticalTargeting #45Victims #TrueCrimeExposed #DemocraticTargets #FBIInvestigation #DomesticTerrorism #PoliticalViolence #MassShootingPlan #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #ElectedOfficialSafety #ExtremistThreat #PoliticalAssassination
