I believe that there is a small number of occupations who carefully observe human behavior. Cops are definitely on that list… but so are comedians. I know that both groups make me laugh with all the funny observations they make about the crazy behavior in this world. It's only natural that some cops would gravitate toward stand up comedy and I found one I really like in Vinnie Montez. Vinnie is a Colorado deputy who you might know from his Dry Bar comedy specials or videos of his other live performances from around the country. I asked him to come on the show to talk about his comedy and its connection to police mental wellness. I also want you to note how and why he's transitioning to his next career.
