When Ed Cobbler hung out his Private Investigator shingle 37 years ago, he was the ONLY PI working in Greensboro, North Carolina. He's got more competition these days, but ask anyone in town who's the best, and there's a really good chance they'll point you in Ed's direction.
Between his nearly 40 years as a PI, 15 years in law enforcement, and the time that he served in the US Army, including a tour in Vietnam, Ed's witnessed some of the worst things humanity has to offer. While he spends his days investigating things like violent crimes, insurance fraud, embezzlement, etc., he still somehow manages to be a positive, kind guy who looks for the best in people.
Ed is a fearless, funny, fascinating fellow. And he answers questions with stories, which is why I think you will find this episode especially captivating. Enjoy!
