We can't control everything in police culture and we certainly can't control how outsiders talk about police, but we can control our attitudes and our end of the relationships within the department. Today's guest is Eric Tung, a police commander and the host of the podcast Blue Grit Radio. Eric wants to talk about the empathy or lack thereof that exists between officers and between the officers and commanders. How they communicate better and how each member of the team work to make the team better, regardless of outside influences.

This is a special bonus episode I'm calling the Pursuit Channel; here you can listen in to the excerpts of Hey Chaplain interviews that get cut for time or strayed off topic but are still worth a listen. In this episode I also talk about where I'll be IRL this year.

What happens when the cop who was taking down bad guys and drug addicts, becomes a drug addict… for years… ruining everything and costing everything? Today we're talking to Brock Bevell, a medically retired cop who lost everything to opioid addiction. We're going to talk about the injuries, the pain, the addiction, the cost, and Brock's recovery. If you think that your addiction is going to remain hidden where no one will ever find out about it, then you need to hear what Brock has to say.
