While many people think the show is about Law Enforcement Training, or Law Enforcement specific topis, it is not, think of True Crime Podcasts with a twist. The Law Enforcement Talk Show goes to radio first. Therefore it is required that I use a clock for the length of segments. You've probably seen on television news interviews that they have a hard break. It's the same with radio. The stations have to be able to program in their commercials, news, weather, traffic reports etc. These are called avails, they are NOT Optional. Every guest knows about and is informed of the length of the segments and that I will interrupt them if needed to go to the break. The interviews are recorded and the guests know that the segments must be in a certain length and it is required and they get to tell their stories to millions of people for free. The bi-weekly podcast version of the syndicated Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show, with numerous affiliate US Radio Stations, broadcasting once a week to millions of people.  The show host,  John "Jay" Wiley, is a radio DJ and Retired Baltimore Police Sergeant. The show started as a podcast, before being recruited by terrestrial AM-FM radio stations and has been in continuous operation since March of 2017. You can reach him at jay@letradio.com.

Brand Safe

Brand Safe isn’t the Tana Mongeau you think it is. A little less mess, a lot more meaning. After years of living recklessly online, this is Tana—clearer, sharper, and more honest than ever. With the occasional detour into unfiltered territory and the willingness to be ruthless when necessary. Tana sits down for solo episodes, with her best friends, and with various (yet intentional) guests. Brand Safe is a look into Mongeau’s iPhone: Notes app tangents, real-life conversations with her friends, her team, her therapists, even her idols. Honest conversations about family, relationships, sobriety, fame, and everything else she’s learned the hard way. She introspectively walks you through the deals, the shoots, and the rants she almost posted. Brand Safe—according to her. It’s still Tana, just… recalibrated.
