Join me for the second episode in my 8 part series about my time with WA Police.
In this episode we dive into my first rotation after graduating from the academy—my time on the "Booze Bus." This was a whirlwind experience, packed with a mix of adrenaline, rookie mistakes, and unforgettable moments. From setting up Random Beath Checks to encountering all sorts of characters on the road, it was a real initiation into life on the front line.

But it wasn’t all action and excitement as I noticed cracks in the workplace culture—signs of bullying and harassment and then there were the rookie blunders, like the time I forgot to secure my firearm. It’s an episode that has it all: the highs, the lows, and the hard lessons that come with being thrown into the deep end straight out of the academy. Join me as I reflect on my introduction to policing, and how it set the stage for everything that followed.
