The Ride A Long Episode - EP 88

The Off Duty Podcast - Law Enforcement

This episode is the "Ride a Long" episode. I had a listener, reach out and ask if I could do an episode that feature folks who have done a ride a long.

So I made a post on Instagram, asking for those who have been on a ride a long, to contact me.

So I took 3 ride a long stories and turned them into this episode. If you've been thinking about doing a ride a long with your local police department, then this episode is a good one to listen to.

[00:50] Ami's ride a long - Ami says that just got the "law enforcement bug" early on and when she became of age, she started to apply for various cadet or explorer programs.
