Hanging In The Hideout
welcome to Hanging In The Hideout Podcast I’m Your host Hollywood. I’m an active duty Police Officer looking to break out from the daily stress of the social climate and the unrelenting politics that have infiltrated our way of enjoyment. I’m a huge fan of the way things used to be during the reign of Jay Leno, David Letterman and the family sitcoms. You can’t turn on a TV, get on social media or have a conversation without politics rearing its ugly head or having to tread lightly in what you say.
Here folks, you have found it. The humorous safe zone! I plan on embarking on all the different types of people lifestyles so I can to lean about them and in turn show the humanity behind the badge. I can’t promise I’ll cry with you (the years of service seems to have broken that) but I can definitely laugh with you.
Come one come all to the land of misfits and equality.
