Wear the Badge
Separating fact from fiction and perception from reality, Wear the Badge is a rare look and listen inside the often misunderstood profession of policing. In this podcast, we examine the latest trends, explore how the career is changing, debate and discuss what it takes to do the work and find out why men and women choose to Wear the Badge. Wear the Badge is a production of the Minnesota Chiefs of Police Association and is hosted by the association's executive director, Andy Skoogman.
