CopTalk – Episode 4 – Answering your Questions

September 28, 2025 • 47 mins

Summary Pardon the audio issues this week, the show was interrupted with a major power failure that could easily have been caused by a potential zombie invasion in progress. But we tried to patch it all back together. We leave in the incident to show we are humans just like all of our listeners and because chaos can be more fun to listen too. In this episode of the podcast, we discuss various topics related to law enforcement, including the use of bullet-resistant vests, retrieving personal belongings after a dispute, eligibility for becoming a police officer with a felony conviction, and the complexities of divorce and property disputes. We also share personal experiences with police pursuits, signs of kidnapping and sex trafficking, and the legality of aftermarket vehicle modifications. Additionally, they address the legality of driving topless in Michigan and police protocol in murder cases, concluding with a discussion on the legal implications of opening someone else's mail. Takeaways The use of bullet-resistant vests is often for the protection of high-profile suspects. Retrieving personal belongings can be complicated, especially across state lines. Expunged felony convictions may not always disqualify someone from becoming a police officer. Divorce disputes can complicate property retrieval, requiring legal advice. Police pursuit policies vary by agency and can impact crime rates. Signs of potential kidnapping or trafficking can be subtle and require vigilance. Aftermarket vehicle modifications may not meet legal standards and can lead to traffic stops. Driving topless may be considered indecent exposure in some states. Police protocol for questioning murder suspects typically involves detaining them for safety. Opening someone else's mail can have legal implications, especially for minors.

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
