Here we are, the end of season seven. We find our babbling, blushing buddies bringing the season to an end. Listening in, we know this episode is not your everyday bottom-self pour, with topics such as Where is the Rodinator, What’s up with Vinny, a stripper has rights, and is Hound Dog now the Red Ride. Yes, our beloved followers, there is more. There is always more when our retired cops from the south get together, ...
It’s all in the narrative, any great podcaster would say. With that in mind, narratively speaking, we find Doby Dawg missing in action, or out of action, depending on which one of our boys in blue you ask. Three out of four superheroes aren’t bad, not for one podcast anyway, because Double D would be surprised to hear that Hound Dog has the clap from just pushing buttons. Tuning into this week's episode, I’m sure...
This week, we find King Trump’s four knights in shining armor dazzling the world with knowledge beyond belief. That’s right, my loyal followers, step right up to the self-serving dispenser of all things great. You know our boys like guns and ammo, so here are a few bullet…points on the topics covered during this week’s show.
· A toast to our fallen officers from Charlotte, NC.
· Time to start killing the kil...
What do you get when you put four retired law enforcement officers on the same podcast? One kick ass show filled with high testosterone, mind-bending, highly educated points of view that don’t answer to any administration, including YouTube, that’s what. Fill your whisky glass full as you ponder over tonight's topics. Does SLO really hear banjos? Why did HoundDog go cheap on his pour? These are a few of the quest...
Although we find Hound Dog hiding in his garage, all four of our scholars are back for this episode. Tune in to our 120 years of weather-beaten, high-anxiety, heavily caffeinated law enforcement aficionados as they pummel you with knowledge beyond belief. You got it. Everything on this show is beyond belief, including another mass shooting, which our boys in blue cover from a law enforcement perspective. You have to a...
Does YouTube have an I.A. Department? Must have, and our heroic nobleman of truth has stumbled into “Get your ass kicked off of YouTube forever jail.” Can we say Rumble? Yes, we can, and let’s say it again…”Rumble!” That's where the big boy podcast goes to live and prosper under the unity of free speech and truth. Moving on to the podcast, we find the Rodinator narrating the discussion of D.B. Cooper. The onl...
Digging deep into this week's episode, we find three of your four badge-carrying, ass- kicking, Geritol-taking, in bed by nine o'clock boys in blue discussing the Loomis Fargo Robbery from the 1990s. The local news coined the robbery as the Hillbilly Heist. Speaking of hillbillies, where is Hound Dog? Could he be out looking for the two plus million dollars that were never recovered, or maybe he was wearing ...
Hound Dog opens the show, and our boys find Doby Dawg missing in action. Well, we're not sure if Double D has seen any action in a while, so we will just say missing. Thanks to our host site, Riverside FM, Hound Dog plays hide and seek during the show as the Rodinator delivers the news like the old newspaper boy on his bike route, who stole the Red Rocket from Pee-wee Herman himself. Now that's fast, but you...
Step up and grab your free ticket to this runaway train we call a podcast. Tuning in, you will find our canaries of the airwaves singing the sweet song of bourbon, with a little Old Smoky Moonshine thrown in. The stories flow as freely as the whisky, so put your big boy britches on and find a nice cool hiding place so the old lady doesn’t interrupt your me time. You will need a cool place because the stories are as ho...
Is this episode coming to you from Studio 77 or Camp Jellystone? You figure it out as Yogi Bear makes a guest appearance to open up this action-packed podcast. It seems that serial killers keep popping up, taking our gang down yet another rabbit hole of police related topics that only Yogi can grasp. We don’t know where Boo Boo is, but we have a Doby Dwag who flexes his proverbial idiom muscles, schooling our loyal li...
During this episode, the bourbon flows as freely as the conversation. The only thing missing is Hound Dog, who ditched the guys for some good old down-home barbecue. Look at Hound Dog thinking with his belly as our boys in blue are left to stew in their thoughts of misconduct touched with just a flavor of misbehavior to guide them through the smothering waller of intellectual conversation. Tuning in, you will find th...
Series four of four of the serial killers episodes. Our boys in blue wrap things up with John Wayne Gacy, the clown killer. No, he didn't kill clowns, although if he had, I would have referred him to the movie "IT." Steven King scares the shit out of me. With a body count of 33 young men, Gacy made it easy for the scholars of all things known to man to fill the one-hour episode with his crime spree. So ...
Tuning in this week, we find our thin-blue-line scholars on episode three of a four- part series about serial killers. The one and only Rodinator leads the way down the rabbit hole of all things Gregory Green, the Michigan killer. Talk about having a family to kill for, this beats the cake. Speaking of cake. Is there such a thing as a bourbon cake? If not, there should be. Either way, plant your butt in a chair as you...
Series two of four on the topic of serial killers. This week, we find our guys discussing Wayne Bertram Williams. Narrated by our beloved Doby Dawg, listen in as you are taken down the sad but true memory lane of one of the notorious killers. Do the other boys of blue chime in? Darn skipping they do. All of us have opinions on the who, what, where, when, and how such things happen among the fine people like you, our l...
Our guys in blue are killing it in this episode. H. H. Holmes is their first serial killer of four in this series. Listen in as Hound Dog narrates the written accounts of this first known killer that rocked the nation with his dastardly deeds. Say you don't like serial killers? The next time you visit your local grocery store, stay out of the cereal aisle, and you should be okay. Lock your doors, get out the old ...
What a rarity! Tuning in, you will find the masters of the airways all drinking the same whisky: Knob Creek Bourbon Rye. Rye, you ask? Because they can, they did, and you know they rated it. Other than bourbon, what else are the boys known for? You guessed it, rabbit holes. Our whisky-pickled scholars crawl down a hole so deep, it's going to take at least four episodes to dig themselves out. Serial Killers, that&...

Drink responsibly. Never drink and drive.
White cap or yellow cap, what is your choice? You don't know what the hell I'm talking about? Well, our bourbon burping boys do. Listening in, we find the quadruplets covering such topics as a handyman is not so handy. No due process for you. There goes the judge. The media needs to shut up and Phone Spineinitis. On a serious note, our gang raises their glasses and pays homage to our beloved fallen officers ...
That's right, boys and girls, it's the podcast, not a podcast. Listen in as our whisky-spewing, bourbon-soaked foursome dive deep into their ever-growing oversized brains to try and answer such questions as;
- Does Buffalo Trace float?
- Is the bitch crazy?
- Does a good guy with a gun trump a bad guy with a gun?
- Was that dog used correctly?
- Jailer, is your paperwork filled out correctly?
- Should Old Crow and Double...
Another episode and a whisky pour or four brings us to this week's mischief that only our boys can get into. There's nowhere to hide for Hound Dog as he gets the pink slip from DOGE as the Ninja Turtles fly overhead. The Rodinator loads the gang up in his little red wagon and takes them down the road of politics that leads to a fountain of rabbit holes. So be like our song birds of the podcast world. Get you...
