I will be joined by my co-hosts Detective Burke, with over 31 years in, and Sgt RJ with over 15 yrs. Your mind will be taken on a wacky journey into some quirky and bizarre tales. You will laugh, cry and have nightmares as we negotiate your brain into a peaceful submission. So join us as we put our decades of experience to the task to tackle topics from true crime, UAPs, the paranormal, hilarious and gritty law enforcement stories, to some great adventures in history....and there is so much more. We consider ourselves as a gaggle of brilliant minds who display our knowledge in a fashion befitting that of a drunken sailor with a sober sidekick...

WWII was winding down, the US had visions of great rockets hurling into the stratosphere...but how could the US pull it off...well they needed scientists, lots of them, and some pretty controversial ones at that.
So, welcome to Operation Paperclip, a massive success or a huge cultural, ethical, and moral dilemma of the ages. Where does the US find it's scientists to launch them head first into the space race....well, WWII and the Axis powers that's where.
Grab yourself a seat, and brace yourself for this one, if you are unfamiliar with Operation Paperclip...you might need a nap after listening to this episode...things get a little bumpy and confusing...it's okay, we are gentle.
