Introducing the “I Am Human. This Is My Dog.” podcast – the show devoted to putting the individual back into the dog, as well as their human, while also examining difficult, and oftentimes controversial, animal welfare related topics that have been largely ignored, but are critical for real progress.
In this fourth episode of the inaugural season, I am forced to slightly jump ahead to the spring of 2009 when I met a former marine named Leonard Shelton, who was the first person I heard that was given a citation by Lakewood Animal Control for walking an unregistered and unmuzzled "pit bull" dog within city limits shortly after the ban was in effect.
Due to his recent passing on May 15, 2023, I am releasing the full interview I conducted with Leonard Shelton to honor him, as well as the friendship that developed between he and I.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
