Episode 72: California Cop with Officer Kyle Shoberg

Active police K9 handlers are usually at the tip of the spear when it comes to dealing with the toughest calls. I sat down with Kyle Shoberg, who’s spent 14 years as a police officer - and half of that as a handler. We get in to the difficulties of policing in such a polarized political climate and also numerous shootouts he’s been in during his tenure.Sponsored by @jockofuel, @projectwarpath, @heartbeathotsauce, and @resiliencecbd.----------Table of Timestamps:00:00 - Intro9:00  - Breaking the Ice13:15 - Morning Routine18:00 - Growing Up in California29:15 - Police Academy32:00 - Justice with Discretion39:15 - Public Perception43:30 - First Years on the Force55:45 - George Floyd59:45 - My First K-91:10:15 - Dog Bites1:22:45 - New Dog, New Day1:29:15 - First Gunfight1:42:15 - An Explosive Situation1:55:15 - A Stolen Car2:04:4 5 - Shootout at the Sunrise Mall2:21:15 - PTSD2:31:15 - Departmental Changes2:37:00 - Defund the Police2:49:00 - Looking Ahead----------To find out more about Kyle or to learn more about Shoberg Tactical Consulting, check out Kyle’s website at www.kyleshoberg.com or follow him on Instagram at www.instagram.com/kyle_shoberg.----------Support our sponsors:Origin Labs | www.originmaine.com/origin-labs | @ORIGIN USA---Heartbeat Hot Sauce | www.heartbeathotsauce.com | @heartbeat_hotsauceGet 20% off your next purchase with Promo Code MIKEDROP at www.heartbeathotsauce.com.---Project Warpath | www.projectwarpath.com | @ProjectWarpathGet 15% off your next purchase with Promo Code MIKEDROP15 at www.projectwarpath.com---Resilience CBD | www.resiliencecbd.com/militaryandfirstresponderdiscount | @resiliencecbd---Apparel, accessories, protection dogs, and online training at www.trikos.comOnline dog training | https://teamdog.pet Team Dog Facebook | @TeamDogTraining Books, Blog, Media and more from Mike Ritland at www.mikeritland.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5531509/advertisement
