OUR AMERICAN SECURITY

26 episodes - English - Latest episode: about 1 month ago -

We live in a world where public safety and our national security are taken deadly seriously by the ones who are in harm's way and sworn to protect us. Yet the people they protect either move obliviously along, hoping that the worst will never happen to them, or use the threat as a pawn to gain power and influence in a high-stakes game of "who dies first loses". 

Our American Security (OAS) takes a hard, honest, no-punches-pulled look at the most controversial issues facing us in public safety and national security.  Additionally, this podcast will chronicle Bobby Sheppard, the host, as a start-up founder trying to help the world with his Security company,  S3 Global Security Group LLC. 

Bobby Sheppard is a career national security and law enforcement expert who has served for over two decades as both a government employee and a defense contractor and has worked in some of the most consequential organizations in the world.
