Send us a textJim's inspiration into law enforcement began when local police and fire were called to his Grandparent's home in Warrensville Heights, OH. Years later, he went on to ride with the same officer who responded that fateful day, while he served as a reserve officer until he was old enough apply.Hired in 1977, his career began and he never looked back.

In this inspiring episode, George Halford sits down with Zach Gant—a native of Hilham, TN whose early life spiraled into sports, crime, and addiction, landing him behind bars three times by age 18 and labeled the county's second‑largest drug dealer. Zach shares the crushing toll of his substance abuse and addiction on his mind and relationships, revealing how a SWAT raid became the wake‑up call that led him to get clean, earn his GED, and graduate college with a perfect 4.0. Inspired by his father's work as a respiratory therapist and driven by his newfound faith, he launched his own business. But the battle wasn't over—Zach opens up about how pride, an ADD diagnosis, and five years hiding a cocaine habit nearly destroyed his marriage before faith and honesty helped them heal and guided him into his calling to preach and later founded a church and- which guided him to open his "Struggle Bus" Food Truck.

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.

Today's guest is Kym Jackson — Aussie actor, author, and co-founder of the Secret Actor Society. Kym's journey spans continents and platforms: she launched her career onstage in Australia, made the leap to Hollywood, and hasn't stopped working since. You've seen her on Criminal Minds, NCIS: LA, This Is Us, and SWAT — or in films like Snitch, Iron Sky, and We Bury the Dead. But acting is just one facet of her creative powerhouse. In this episode, Kym opens up about navigating the business with grace and grit — from managing self-tapes and raising a family to launching an actor-focused education platform. She talks coaching, casting, demo reels (the good, the bad, and the too-long), and how she landed a dream pilot that never made it past COVID.

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. He emphasizes the importance of mastering your role in law enforcement while also developing skills outside the badge—so you're ready for the next chapter when it comes. We also talk about Aaron's mission to employ and empower former military and police professionals, giving them not only jobs, but purpose and opportunity. His journey is a blueprint for others in the K9 and law enforcement communities who are ready to build something of their own.  Topics Covered: Why Aaron left law enforcement after 16 years Founding Ridgeside K9 and scaling a dog training business Navigating burnout and lack of administrative support Creating a mission-driven company that supports police and veterans Advice for officers: build skills beyond the badge Follow Aaron Taylor & Ridgeside K9: Instagram: @ridgesidek9_llc Thank you to our sponsors: Ray Allen Mfg. - Rayallen.com Inukshuk Performance Dog food - INUKSHUKPRO.com Black Jacks Leather - BlackJacksleather.com Sauna Box - Saunabox/k9.com Key word "K9" for discount Connect with Us: Instagram: @policek9radio663 Email: Trainers@Dtack9.com

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.

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.

In this episode, Vercel CEO Guillermo Rauch goes deep on how V0, their text-to-app platform, has already generated over 100 million applications and doubled Vercel's user base in under a year.Guillermo reveals how a tiny SWAT team inside Vercel built V0 from scratch, why “vibe coding” is making software creation accessible to everyone (not just engineers), and how the AI Cloud is automating DevOps, making cloud infrastructure self-healing, and letting companies expose their data to AI agents in just five lines of code.You'll hear why “every company will have to rethink itself as a token factory,” how Vercel's Next.js went from a conference joke to powering Walmart, Nike, and Midjourney, and why the next billion app creators might not write a single line of code. Guillermo breaks down the difference between vibe coding and agentic engineering, shares wild stories of users building apps from napkin sketches, and explains how Vercel is infusing “taste” and best practices directly into their AI models.We also dig into the business side: how Vercel's AI-powered products are driving explosive growth, why retention and margins are strong, and how the company is adapting to a new wave of non-technical users. Plus: the future of MCP servers, the security challenges of agent-to-agent communication, and why prompting and AI literacy are now must-have skills.VercelWebsite - https://vercel.comX/Twitter - https://x.com/vercelGuillermo RauchLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/rauchgX/Twitter - https://x.com/rauchgFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comX/Twitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCapMatt Turck (Managing Director)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/X/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturck(00:00) Intro (02:08) What Is V0 and Why Did It Take Off So Fast?

In this episode, we dive into why tactical thinking isn't just for the military or law enforcement—it's essential for civilians too. Using the real-world example of Gary Edwards, a citizen who stepped in to stop not one but two attempted carjackings in suburban Georgia, we explore how awareness, quick decision-making, and the right mindset can change the outcome of violent encounters. We also unpack the importance of learning tactics—not to play soldier, but to become harder to victimize. Superior tactics have always allowed smaller, less-equipped groups to overcome stronger opponents, and the same principles apply to everyday people facing real threats. Whether you carry a firearm or not, this episode is a wake-up call to sharpen your skills, train your mind, and stop relying on luck when danger comes calling.Resources:FM 3-21.8: The Infantry Platoon and SquadSupport the showGet Members Only Content when you upgrade to a premium membership on our Substack page.

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

Most FBI agents don't live a life undercover with criminal motorcycle clubs or extremist groups or ever play the part of a hitman or commit to roles involving public corruption, or be an active member of a regional SWAT team, but FBI Agent Scott Payne has done ALL of the above as well as assignments that are still classified. The guy is a natural story teller!

Why do we focus so much on tactics and so little on strategy? In this episode, Mike and Jim tackle the divide between street-level action and big-picture thinking. Drawing on lessons from policing, the military, and community crime prevention, they explore how individual cops, community members, and leaders can influence criminal decision-making—not just react to it. Topics include resource constraints, the Broken Windows theory, and strategies for shifting offender perceptions to prevent crime before it occurs.   Find us on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/YouTube) @TacTangents.
