CITYSAFE PODCAST
CITYSAFE PODCAST
Co-Hosted by: Jim Cords and Don Carr
For twenty years, retailers asked when law enforcement was going to show up. In 2026, law enforcement is asking when retailers are going to bring something worth showing up for. That is the seam this show lives in.
Don Carr has spent over a decade in the retail and hospitality private security space. Jim Cords is a recently retired federal agent with nearly three decades at the FBI and DHS on the investigations and prosecution side. Together they cover what actually works on the floor, in the courtroom, and in the space where retailers and law enforcement either collaborate or miss each other entirely.
Episodes feature AP leaders, federal agents, prosecutors, and the practitioners doing the grinding, unglamorous work that is actually changing this industry. Real conversations with real operators. Tools and platforms get discussed because they have to. Spin does not.
Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube Music.
