PiCREP was joined by Brian Dickinson with co-host Benjamin Breckhemier.
About Brian: Former Navy rescue swimmer Brian Dickinson was roughly 1,000 feet from the summit of Mount Everest—also known as “the death zone”—when his Sherpa became ill and had to turn back, leaving Brian with a difficult decision: should he continue to push for the summit, or head back down the mountain? After carefully weighing the options, Brian decided to continue toward the summit—alone. Four hours later, Brian solo summited the highest peak in the world. But the celebration was short-lived......

The Protectors® Podcast - #287 | Chip DeBlock | Host of LEO Round Table

Send us a text

The Protectors Podcast TM presents Chip DeBlock. Chip is the host of the Law Enforcement Roundtable, a career law enforcement officer (retired), and whistleblower. The plan of our podcast was to discuss Chip’s live-stream show, the LEO Round Table, but we decided to talk about a topic that is near to me, whistleblowing. Chip, after investigating an organized crime organization, ran directly into the sights of allegedly corrupt public officials and they would stop at nothing to end his investigation. Chip took a stand. He legally blew the whistle. I also discuss my past as a federal whistleblower.

About Chip: Creator and host of the nationally syndicated LEO Round Table law enforcement talk show. Chip retired after 30-years on the force.
