Episode Synopsis

Welcome to Beyond the Barrel, where every episode takes you deeper into the lives of those who serve on the frontlines. Hosted by two dynamic leaders— Kenny, a nationally recognized K9 interdiction officer, and Attorney Mike, a U.S. Army veteran and seasoned Patrol Supervisor—this podcast is where stories of bravery, sacrifice, and humanity unfold.

Beyond the Barrel isn’t just about what happens on duty—it’s about what happens when the uniform comes off. Kenny and Mike sit down with first responders and military personnel to dive into the real stories behind their service, exploring the personal challenges and triumphs that have shaped their lives. But they don’t stop there—they reveal the human side, the passions and interests that make these heroes just like you and me.

From veteran and cop to entrepreneur, law enforcement officers possess a wide range of skills that seamlessly translate to the private sector. Yet, we often underestimate our own potential, believing we lack the qualifications to pursue new opportunities. It’s time we give ourselves the credit we deserve and confidently explore what lies beyond the barrel.

In this special roundtable discussion, returning guests Sgt. John Mattingly and Anthony Shefferly join Mike and myself as we dive into what makes law enforcement officers truly exceptional. We explore the resilience, dedication, and sacrifices of those who wear the badge, while also discussing ways to push the profession forward. From leadership and training to wellness and mindset, this conversation is all about honoring the profession while striving for continuous improvement. Tune in for an insightful and inspiring discussion on the future of law enforcement.
