Who to Call on When You Need Help with Mike the Cop

Mike the Cop fires up the microphone and take a break from “stealing police cars and video equipment” to sit down with HM and MC for this episode of What’s Your Emergency.

Mike the Cop is part of so many great organizations including Humanizing the Badge and Project:Human but you most likely know him for his hilarious online videos.  Mike has been vocal on many topics in the Law Enforcement community and brings his views to our show to talk about officer suicide prevention and how officers who feel overwhelmed can reach out for help. HM and MC challenge Mike on the struggle of online anonymity, how to handle the boss when they find out you’re online, and what it takes to put together viral videos that are seen by nearly 600,000 Facebook followers.

Topics in this show include:

• How Humanizing the Badge came to be
• Where First Responders can reach out for help if they are considering suicide
• Clues and strategies for first responders to recognize others in crisis

Today’s Guest:  Mike the Cop, if that is his real name (bald one in photo provided), made a name for himself online with hilarious Vines, the 8-second mini movies depicting the unpredictable and hilarious things police officers often deal with on the job.  He is also a champion of a number of Police Supportive groups, foundations, organizations, and a frequent trouble maker on his podcast Off the Cuff.  Be sure to follow Mike on Facebook, subscribe to his podcast, and support his efforts to Humanize the Badge.
