In this episode, Mike Elam continues his story of diving into the legend of Buford Pusser and why many of the legends around the man don't add up. There's also a discussion of socks, shopping, and shrinkage. Check it out. It's a good one.

Buford Pusser, the sheriff the 1973 Movie "Walking Tall" was based on, inspired countless men to pursue careers in law enforcement. Known for being a no-nonsense man with an unbreakable moral code, legend has it that he cleaned up McNairy County, Tennessee, freeing it from the grips of criminal enterprises. What if the legends are false, though? Bentonville native Mike Elam long looked up to Buford, but when he started researching the man he so admired, he discovered that the truth didn't match up with the legend. Listen to him discuss his research and findings with the crew in an episode you don't want to miss.

On this episode, we continue our conversation with Ralph Bartley on all things canine, K9, and friendship. Hear the story about his favorite rescue, why your mood affects your dogs' mood, and about how his buddy Adam came to his rescue during the darkest day of his life.

For Ralph Bartley, growing up in Mulberry, Kansas wasn't quite like growing up in Mayberry, though he did end up becoming mayor and police chief of the small town. From there, he ended up in Northwest Arkansas where he became a detective with the Bentonville Police Department along with the help of his K9 partner, Kilo. Listen to Ralph tell his story and how he ended up working with one of the best dogs ever on this episode. You don't want to miss it.

After getting out of prison, Brentt Tumey went to work, but that work wasn't his true calling. Instead, he discovered that his vocation enabled him to truly follow his passion and work to help kids overcome abuse to hopefully find some peace and have a shot at good lives. Initially working with CASA, he ended up founding his own organization, SCARS, to do everything he can to help kids avoid the fate of so many he encountered during his stints in the cell.

Listen to Brentt discuss the horrors that occur today and what we the people can do to help prevent them, as well as what we can do to help those who suffer abuse heal.
