APD Pod Squad
Season 2, Episode 1; Chief Mike Lamb, Deputy Chief Sean Aardema, Deputy Chief Jackie Stepp, SPO Isaiah Senyak, and the History Minute with Hannah Silberman
Welcome to Season 2! The APD Pod Squad launched on August 24th, 2024, just over one year ago. In this episode, the first of Season 2, we look back at the past year with Chief of Police Mike Lamb, Deputy Chief Sean Aardema, and Deputy Chief Jackie Stepp. Hurricane Helene dominated the headlines, of course, but the past year was so much more than that. We moved forward in many ways, and experienced wins to go with the losses, and we'll discuss those.
In The History Minute with Hannah Silberman, we highlight some of the more colorful characters who have held the title of Asheville Chief of Police, like Ambrose Augustus Featherston, Herschel Springfield Harkins, and Alfred Hunter Baird.
And Senior Police Officer Isaiah Senyak from the Community Engagement Division shares all the happenings in the busy month of September, from the Retirees Cookout to the next Coffee with a Cop
