In this re-released episode, I interview retired police officer Paulie Lewis, who was medically retired after being shot twice while responding to a domestic violence incident.
Through the interview, Lewis discusses his physical and mental journey to recovery and clarifies how the media's portrayal of such incidents differs from the reality of their long-lasting effects on people's lives.
Lewis encourages listeners to consider the layers and complexities of law enforcement work that exist beyond what is depicted in mainstream media.
