In this episode, Lara speaks with retired police lieutenant and founder of The Wounded Blue, Randy Sutton.

Randy also breaks down the alarming rise in attacks on police officers since 2020 and what it means for law enforcement nationwide.

Later in the show, Lara welcomes three-time World Series champion and author Jeremy Affeldt to discuss his new book, Built for the Storm: Weathering the Storms of Life with Grit, Faith, and Determination. Jeremy shares stories from his baseball career, how he was recruited, his advice for parents putting kids into youth sports, why failure is an essential part of success, and the role faith plays in shaping his life.
