Episode Write-Up: Bobby Chacon

On today’s episode of the Buckle Up Podcast Universe, we sit down with Bobby Chacón, a retired FBI agent with a remarkable story.

Bobby takes us through his early career as an attorney, his transition into the FBI, and how he went on to create a legacy inside the Bureau. He developed the FBI’s underwater forensics program in New York, Los Angeles, Miami, and Washington D.C.—and at the time, his New York unit was the only FBI dive team in existence.

From high-stakes investigations to pioneering forensic work beneath the surface, Bobby shares gripping insights into the life of an agent. And that’s only part of his journey—he also opens up about how his FBI expertise led him into the world of film and television, where he now helps bring authenticity to Hollywood.


This conversation is rich with detail, layered with personal stories, and shows how one man’s career can span law, law enforcement, and entertainment.
