This episode of Beyond The Call Podcast features Jeff Tougher, father of paramedic Steven Tougher, who was tragically murdered in April 2023.
Jeff discusses his son's compassionate life dedicated to serving others and recounts the devastating details of Steven's murder and the subsequent trial.
The episode delves into the broader issue of violence against first responders and Jeff's campaign for 'Steven's Law'—a proposed legislation aimed at providing greater protection for paramedics and enforcing stricter penalties for assaults. Jeff emphasises the importance of raising public awareness and legislative action to prevent future tragedies and improve the safety and working conditions of paramedics. Listeners are encouraged to support the cause by advocating for the law and promoting the campaign.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
