From Giggles to Grim Reality:The Duality of Policing Life

G’day, listeners! Ever wondered how the word ‘bog’ could send a room into fits of laughter or what it feels like to capture the raw emotions of sportsmanship through a camera lens? Season six springs to life with our trademark humor, as we reminisce about the early days of our podcast and get cheeky with some Aussie slang. The camaraderie is in full swing as we navigate the nuances of words that leave us in stitches, and share touching tales from the rink where hockey players make a stand for young fans. It’s a ride through the heartfelt and the hilarious, and you’re invited to join the fun.

We’re not just here to crack jokes, though. We’ve got a former motor officer and collision investigator who’s now providing security for the media, sharing the inside scoop on law enforcement and emergency services with a grin. His stories zigzag from the chaos of crash scenes to the protocol of delivering the toughest news. The chat gets real as we talk about the remnants of tragedy and the emotional toll it takes on those who serve. It’s a candid look at the less-discussed side of the badge, served up with a side of laughter and a dash of solemnity. Strap in as we tackle the serious, the absurd, and everything in between.
