This week we sit down with Officer Jaz. Jaz come to us from LAPD where he worked for 6+ years. He has been with GPPD for over 2 years now. His father was a firefighter and that is what he wanted to be growing up. Thankfully he came to his senses and became a cop instead! We are lucky to have him as he has nearly earned his Texan card....almost.
Let's dig into it!

This week our hosts sit down with Bryan. He is from Arkansas and got to Texas as soon he could. He grew up wanting to make video games or become a cop.
